Soap Couple Saturday

OLTL's Starr and Cole

Jailbreak!

HA! Roxy doesn't believe Gigi is really Gigi. I love her =) She is pulling at her face checking for scars. It isn't until Gigi becomes upset over the cancelation of Fraternity Row that Roxy finally believes it is her..LOL.

Matthew ran away to David and Dorain's? That would be fun to watch!

Beautiful and sweet wedding! I admit I needed a tissue. Delphina did a good job. Vintage Rex flashback. Wow, his hair! Shane looked so teeny. The wedding went off without interruption and we now have newlyweds! Immediately after, the lights start to flicker.

The Todd/Blair kiss gave me some goosebumps! The same can't be said for Natalie and John. Of course their kiss got interrupted...AGAIN!

Delphina warns John about evil coming to Llanview tonight. At the stroke of midnight the whole town goes dark. There's been a JAILBREAK!! Starr, Nora, and Natalie all seem to get visits from an escapee. Who do you think is showing up?

Have a Heart

That was funny how Clint thinks he and Todd are so different. Viki points out that Clint would do anything to protect his kids from jail. "My kids are not killers!" Viki: "Just their Alters?" Good one! You will not convince Viki to give up on her brother or her nephew.

Todd doesn't get how Blair and Tea are now friends. Funny that he hasn't mentioned that since he's been back. The two were at each other's throats before TSJ took over. He can't figure out why Tea is so angry towards him. Todd finally puts it all together and realizes that she knows he killed Victor.

Natalie and John see Gigi. She quickly tells her about John being Liam's father. She is surprised to find out that the secret is out and the couple is still not together. Natalie is just being a total idiot at this point. Life is short, tell  your man that you love him!

Jack finally apologizes to Shane and Gigi. "Tell that to my sister!" Really Gigi? Yes, Jack is a jerk, but don't play the sister card. She was going to KILL you! Jack was being a mean, obnoxious, stupid, reckless bully. Stacy was trying to kill you and take over your life. Hmmm....seems like you should be more mad about one than the other. Maybe it's just me...

Shane seemed more pissed off at Stacy than Gigi. When Clint realized he had Stacy's heart, the smarter Morasco said "it's not like she was using it!" ROFL! Rex gets to Llanfair and proposes in front of Clint, Viki, and Shane =)

Aubrey and Kimmie are getting their hearts broken now that Gigi is alive. I wish mommy Alex was there to comfort (or annoy) her daughter. Understatement of the year from Cutter: "I realize I haven't been a very good brother." LOL...ya think? The scamming-siblings's next score......Mommy Alex!

OMG ABC! I hate you so much for taking away the opportunity to play out that story!

Amateur Spy

One of the first things Gigi says to Shane, "Look at your hair! Can you see?" ROFL....weren't we just talking about that mop on his head?

Rex explains the Aubrey situation to Gigi. He tells her that any feelings he had for Aubrey disappeared the minute he know she was alive. Gigi sends him to go break Aubrey's heart in person. Poor girl =(

Jack finds out about Neela's betrayal. He is not too happy. What did she expect? Of course he hates you now.

Tea and Todd are having their Lawyer/Client meeting when in walks Shane and Gigi!

Tea lets Todd and Blair know that it was Neela who got Jack arrested. I am just waiting for Todd to go after her. We all know it is coming. And just like that....Todd and Blair run into "Llanview PD's newest little helper" in Angel's Square.

Porno Rick is trying to convince Starr that she has the "it" factor to sell albums. "You have evil twin daddies! Who are the Kardashians?" That Jailbait video was hilarious!

Am I Dreaming?

Ok OLTL, you had me there for a second. I thought Rex was dreaming the whole Gigi reunion thing. Just about pulled all my hair out before I realized it WASN'T a dream. 

Rex fills Gigi in on the things she missed. Good for the show for not leaving anything out. Rex tells her about the Jack/Victor cover-up. "Who's Victor Lord JR?" Oh yeah Gigi, you missed the whole tale of 2 Todd Mannings....LOL.

Clint looks really proud of Shane for acting like a Buchanan in the way he got evidence against Jack. Aww...he called Clint "Grandpa!" Nice bonding with he aunt Natalie. 

The tears were flowing for me when Shane realized his "mommy" was right in front of him.

Jack goes off on Blair. "Face it mom, I was always one kid too many for you." OUCH! Blair gives it right back. Great scene!

Glad to see Tea fighting for Jack. That is what Victor would've wanted. She and Blair are my favorite couple..lol. They remind me of a newer version of Viki/Dorian. Not quite as fabulous, but it will do.

Neela better be ready to face the wrath of Todd. Could you imagine if Victor was still alive? Both of Jack's dads fighting to protect (or cover up for) him? THAT would be awesome!

STUPID ABC!! 

Christmas in Llanview

I FINALLY got around to watching Friday's episode. I was dying to watch but it was next to impossible with all the Christmas festivities we had going on. I kept hearing about how good it was. Anyway...so here is what I thought:


OLTL did a great job having Shane listen to Jack's taped confession while Rex and Gigi watch the events. Stacy sure is a twisted psycho. Ahhh.....they know! She's really Gigi =) "My Gigi, My Gigi!" That made me cry and I'm not even a huge Rex/Gigi fan.

Finally John leaves Tea's house to go talk to Natalie. Of course the "talk" didn't happen. Shane called and interrupted with his Jack news.

The Manning toast to Victor! I loved it! We miss him too =( It doesn't get much cuter than little Sam. Aww...Victor left Christmas presents for Tea and Dani. Here come more tears.

Poor Jack. I can't help but feel bad for him. I think it's because I know the show is ending and there is really no time to redeem him. Todd was redeemed (along with dozens of other characters) so I just wish the same would happen for his son.

Viki and Clint are too cute =) They are like teenagers..lol. Clint: "Kim didn't write that letter." Viki: "Obviously not, it wasn't in crayon!" HA! A kiss! I agree Viki...it will be a very Merry Christmas in Llanview.

I'm Still Here =)

I'm still here. Just haven't been able to get to the new episode of OLTL yet. I was about 20 minutes in to it before our family arrived from out of town. Not sure when I will get to it. Hopefully soon because it was getting good =)

I look forward to talking with you all soon about our favorite show.

Hope you have a Merry Christmas!!

Back in Time

Tea almost lets her hatred for Todd show when Dani gets him a gift. John talks her down. Then a beautiful bouquet of flowers shows up from Mr. Manning himself.

I'm feeling sorry for Jack. Not so much that he is about to get busted. I feel real bad that he actually likes Neela and she is going to turn him in.

Cutter comes clean about Gigi really being Gigi. Too bad no one believes him. To top it off, he gets dragged off in handcuffs for murder and for framing Kim. His one phone call when he gets to jail.....Miss Aubrey.

Delbert Fina runs into Rex and Gigi at the cafe. He convinces them to look back in time to find out what happened the day Gigi died. It works! They are able to view the events of that day on an old tv set..lol. I know a lot of people don't like this stuff. As a Back to the Future fanatic, I love this stuff!

You Look Familiar

Is it me or does Tea wear that black and white outfit A LOT? Reminds me of that Seinfeld episode where he is dating the girl who always wears the same black and white dress..lol.

Anyway...on to the show.

Todd seems a bit proud of Jack for his Todd-like traits. Now that I see some remorse for Jack, I'm starting to not hate him....a little. Neela sure was easy to convince to get the goods on Jack.

I say it almost everyday and I'll say it again. I'm loving this Tea/John friendship. If the dumb-asses hadn't canceled the show, we could have a triangle with Natalie.

Darn it, Kimmie! Why did you have to go and kiss Clint? That is Viki's man! What do you know....Viki walks in right as they are smooching.

Professor Delbert Fina Jr! Remember his daddy? He was in the time travel storyline and helped get Gigi to Rex. He is the pie contest judge. And of course Noelle's "Gigi Morasco Special" wins. After, Rex finally sees Gigi.

Mullets, Alters, DNA, and Mazdas...Oh My!!

Roxy wakes up in Fraternity Row! OMG! It's 2 minutes in and I am laughing so hard. Viki and Clint are the butler and maid. Todd's mullet! Tea in the sexy police uniform, fixing her boobs!

John is Brandon, Roxy and David's fratboy son. He and Nat are in a possible incestuous relationship. John "look on the bright side, we are as close as 2 people can be." Nat in her whisper voice "lovers and siblings."

Porn guy Rick is the dean...LMBO!

The Ford brothers and now the "Mazda" brothers. Jessica, Dani and Starr are cracking me up as snotty sorority sisters. Kristen Alderson is bringing it!! Starr is now called "Moon." Jessica even has an alter, Roxanne. Rox is possible sleeping with all the Mazda brothers. "Could Mazda be cheating on me, with me?"

Bwahhhhh....Nigel is Roxy's (Lorraine's) sister/bff. The mother of Natalie (Brianna). Lorraine says, "you don't look so good close up." I am dying over here!!

Viki has an alter as well...lol. Clint "Not again!"

Vimal is the DNA lab guy. He's testing Todd's (Dash's) DNA in the most hilarious way. Now John and Natty need a test. In come the sorority sisters and Dani asks for a Duh-Nah test. I see disaster about to happen..lol.

WHAT!!?? Sean is locked up (much like the real Todd was locked up). And he has a scar! His captor.....Destiny, the evil genius!

Roxy (Lorriane) is sleeping with all 3 of the Mazda brothers. "Christmas is coming early!" OMG! OLTL is too much! I am crying.

I think this episode was so enjoyable. I know the actors must have had TONS of fun with this. The giggles were definitely needed.

The last scene did make me tear up for a different reason. Watching Roxy and David walk off the FR/OLTL set broke my heart. I love this show!

Writing Is So Easy

Blanca Morales is back! OLTL does show-within-a-show so well.

David is bringing all the giggles during his interview. Roxy and her Fraternity Row posse (minus one overworked butler) jump in the middle of the live show to spread the word about their soap. David claims he can't do the show because of nepotism. "Who's asking you to do it with a dead person?" OMG! Roxy doesn't quit! They decide to call Bo and talk to him live on the air about Fraternity Row. Destiny is more than happy to give his phone number out. 

I love bratty Matthew! He is obnoxious, selfish, and annoying. Surprisingly, he makes some good points. What high school boy is ready and eager to be a dad? Destiny calling him out on tv had me in tears from laughing so hard. Bo tries to convince him it isn't so bad. Then Blanca asks for the name of the deadbeat brother of David's. Dest looks directly into the camera and says "Matthew Buchanan!" HAHA!

Buchanan girls are doing a little Christmas decorating without fighting. Good for Jess! She tells Natalie how ridiculous she sounds about John.

Tea and John are at the hospital after her collapse. Luckily her baby is safe. If the show wasn't ending, Tea could give Natalie some stiff competition for Johnny Boy. 

Todd forcing Jack to spend time with him...HA! LOVE it! Sam is way too cute =) Todd and Blair were likable today. Even Jack. Family tension. Old ugly secrets. Christmas decorating. Father/son blackmail. Old flashbacks. And NO murdering, framing, or arson. Sam wishing for his dad to be happy in heaven! YES! These are the Mannings I want to see!

That scene of Roxy and David visiting the abandoned set of Fraternity Row (aka Llanfair) brought tears. That hits too close to home. UGH....Please someone save OLTL! =(

Only You Can Save Our Soap

I could fill this whole entry with funny lines delivered by David Vickers. Throw him in a room with Roxy and I am rolling over laughing! Roxy wants him to join the cast of Fraternity Row. She mentions movie star "Franco James" who stars on Southwest General. UGH....makes me sick to even hear that comparison. Especially since I think James Franco (among several other things) ruined General Hospital. But....enough about that.

Back to Vickers. He is bitter about Fraternity Row not hiring him. They said he was too old to play Brandon, the fraternity president...lol.

Florencia Lozano is bringing it! When doesn't she? It's just on overdrive today. She puts on a show for Baker and it works. He spills everything to John and Tea. Now they know Todd is the killer. John and Tea...I see a little chemistry there. Anyone else?

Ok, Blair and Starr are getting on my last nerve. Their blind faith in Todd is so stupid. Yes they love him, but they also know him. They should know what he is capable of. I wish they would shut up!

Todd blackmails Jack...LMBO! He blackmails himself into a father/son relationship. THAT is the Todd I want to see. The Todd that will scheme and blackmail to get his way. The Todd that will act like a 7th grader around his sister. NOT the brother-murdering clown that I've been seeing lately.

Matthew and Destiny are finally having a talk about the baby. Matt is kinda being a jerk about it, but I guess that is realistic for a teenage boy. He does bring up a valid point. Allowing their parents to raise the child is the exact same thing Greg did to Destiny.

The Evans family have different plans for Destiny's baby than Bo and Nora. They each believe the baby will live with them. They head to the Buchanan home to talk to Matt and interrupt a heated argument between their teens.

UGH....I'm so sad. This Evans/Buchanan baby could cause conflict for years and years and years. If only they could =( STUPID STUPID STUPID ABC!

Shut Up Blair!

More fun with the Fraternity Row fanatics: Roxy, Nigel, Shaun, and Destiny! I enjoy their tv watching and their gossip sessions about the goings-on in Llanview.

DAVID!!! He is in full welcome-home-little-bro party mode. Fun! The brotherly bond between him and Matthew is so funny and sweet. David quickly jumped in to help Matthew get rid of "Step-Nora" for a little while. Apparently David got a girl pregnant in high school. That was the secret he told Matt over the phone on Thanksgiving. Ugh oh....will we ever find out who his long lost child is? Any guesses?

Destiny shows up at Casa Buchanan. David's reaction..."Good God woman! You're enormous!" LMBO! He volunteers Dorian and himself as Godparents. THAT would be entertaining. Damn you ABC for not letting my stories continue!!

Blair is going on and on and on....about Todd. Poor Todd this and poor Todd that. I love Tea's response. "Shut up, Blair! You don't know what the hell you're talking about." THANK YOU! She took the words out of my mouth.

You Could Never Make Up Your Mind

Charlie and Viki are playing nice. Why did he have to mess it all up by having an affair with Echo? Viki confides in Charlie about the Clint situation. Surprisingly, he urges her to give Clint a chance.

Clint confides in Kim about his feelings for Viki. She thinks Viki is a consolation prize. Clint snaps back "Viki is no one's consolation prize!" YES! He admits to having feelings for both ex-wives and Kim leaves him to figure out who he wants.

Wish Gigi would hurry up and get her memory back. There's not much time left and all this is doing is making me love Rex/Aubrey more. Heck, Cutter and Gigi are even starting to look a little cute together. Inevitably Rex and Gigi will end up together so I wish they would keep teasing me with potential new couples.

Shaun and Ford are fighting over a Christmas tree...LOL! Viv says that Shaun has been cranky since they cancelled Fraternity Row. Ugh oh....Looks like Shaun is going to pop the question to anti-marriage Vivian. Not sure how that will turn out.

Kim runs in to Aubrey and Rama. Earrings, hats, and rings quickly come off and we have a cat fight!

Save Our Stories!

Save Our Stories! YES Roxy! I love this Fraternity Row stuff. It is so fun. A little sad that it hits close to home. The SOS campaign has gathered in John's apartment...lol. "Oh, Johnny won't mind." Rox gives Destiny, Nigel, and Shaun the 411 on Natalie and John's relationship. Love Destiny's protest sign. "Reality Shows Are Cheap And Boring!" HAHA!!

It is obvious that Tea wants to rip Todd's head off. Flo is spectacular. The look on her face when she saw Todd grab Blair's hand and when she looked into Todd's eyes...WOW!

Viki is back in the waitress uniform. Her first customer....CHARLIE!!

Kim and Clint figure out the letters they received were forged. Nat comes in sticking her nose in daddy's business. Worry about your own life, Natalie! Clint puts her in her place when she tries to kick Kim out of Llanfair.

I like Kim and Clint together. However, I LOVE Viki and Clint. If there were time, this could be an interesting love triangle. For once the older, classy, beautiful woman would come out on top over the young, slutty, stripper. Wouldn't that be nice? Too bad ABC SUCKS!!

Soap Couple Saturday

OLTL's Joey and Dorian

Consider Yourself Crossed

Natalie is being an idiot. I wish I could slap her. Roxy should slap her. Instead she throws what looks like a Caboodle (remember those..lol) at Nat and runs to find John.

Bo and John. Easily figuring out Todd's stupid plan to frame Tomas for murder. They are hilariously interrupted by Roxy. "It's a matter if Love and Death." Stupid Nat threatens to keep Liam away from Roxy if she tells John that she loves him. Rox gives in but later lays into Nat. Roxy has never made such perfect sense. "Grow up Natalie!"

Some of this Todd and Blair stuff is great. I love them throwing each other's mistakes as weapons. Eli.....kidnapping baby Jack. Todd and Blair are great when they fight.

Oh my goodness! Cutter actually told the truth on his own. He tells her that she is really Gigi. AHHH!!! I was fooled! He really didn't tell her. It was only a daydream. Dang it! You had me for a minute OLTL.

It's Not Just A Show, It's Family

Poor Roxy. Fraternity Row is "family" to her. I feel ya Rox! Those damn "Empty Suits!" She talks about how watching the soap has been passed down from generation to generation. Those words couldn't be any more accurate.

Nigel's heart is broken when he finds out about the cancellation. Clint thinks it is a PR move. Roxy begs Clint to save FR. 43 years of FR =( The show and it's fans have been through "Thin and Thinner." LOL!

Clint and Viki! Like teenagers, they are talking about their kiss with their friends. OLTL is one of the few soaps (well, DAYS does it too) that can get us so excited about an older veteran couple. They are grandparents....the kind of grandparents that act like grandparents (not like Erica Kane, Luke Spencer, Brooke Logan). And I am more interested in their love story than ALL of the "younger" love on the other soaps. 

The BonJour waitress recognizes Gigi from a reality show. HA! Dirty Soap maybe? Predictably, Gigi and Cutter get jobs at the Cafe. Now Noelle and Viki are headed that way for the pie contest. Wonder who will see Gigi first?

Fraternity Row Cancelled!

ONE LIFE TO LIVE
I can't get enough of this show. Fraternity Row is on and Llanview residents are glued to the television set. My favorite fan? Closeted fan, Clint! I am literally LOL! He tells Viki that it was criminal that FR didn't win an award last year. Ya think? Art imitating life...LOVE it!

Clint and Viki kiss! Yes!! Then he has to go and mess things up by bringing up Kim's name.

Noelle is back on. Everyone in the Buenos Dias is watching FR too. She talks to Shane about heading to Paris, Tx soon to enter the pie contest. Her pie is named after Gigi. I guess she will be running in to Gigi and Cutter, because they just walked in to the BonJour cafe.

Cutter covers his ears when the Bon Jour waitress speaks about Fraternity Row. "Shhh Shhh! Don't tell me. I'm going to watch it tonight on SoapNet." HAHA! 

Rex and Aubrey find their way to the prison to talk to Kim. FR is even on in the visiting room...lol. Kimmie still looks good in her inmate jumpsuit. They must allow hair products and make up in her cell. She agrees to tell him everything about Stacy and Gigi if he helps to prove her innocence.

Starr is enamored with Fraternity Row. Jack says it was better when Ruby Bright was on, because their cousin Megan played her. You know how I love history ;-)

Roxy, Shaun, Destiny, and Rama are freaking out over the lovers on FR possibly being related. Roxy defends the plot and points out how the story of Eternity, the underground city, was hated. But it is now considered a great story. Ahhh! Did I mention that I'm loving this?

I remember rushing home and being glued to the screen to watch my soaps. I am getting a kick out of Llanview residents being as eager to watch their favorite.

To Roxy's horror, she gets her issue of Soap Opera Weekly with the headline "Fraternity Row Canceled!" Did anyone else catch the smaller headline? New Prospects In the Park for Soaps. Ahhh....that one stings a bit =(

DAYS OF OUR LIVES
Christmas prep on the show today! I love tradition =)

Victor Kiriakis gets an ornament on the Horton Christmas tree! Julie said she never thought she would see the day. Neither did I, but I'm glad it's here.

Tom/Alice flashback! Jack/Jen flashback! Alice giving him his own ornament. I remember that ;-)

Please stop forcing Daniel and Melanie on me! They should not be part of the Horton Christmas traditions! They are surprised to see Jack there? Jack deserves to be there more than the Jonas two. 

Even EJ managed to Christmas-tize the Dimera mansion. Much to Nicole's delight.

Ok, I am glued to the television with this "new" Will! Witnessing his mom getting it on with EJ has transformed him in to the old Sami. Only more likable. His outburst in Maggie's kitchen last week shocked me. I also gasped when he poured liquor in his drink today. Hold on to your seats, because this is going to be good!

Will is NOT holding back his anger towards Sami. The smirk on his face when Carrie surprised her with Marlena was great! The tree trimming party at Sami's place is getting a little dramatic. Will is in her face when she yells at Marlena. He calls her out on her hypocrisy and everyone is in shock to hear him speak that way. He toasts to Rafe and Marlena for being "Saints." "You have to be a Saint to put up with all of her crap." He calls her a bitch and says that make him a son-of-a-bitch. OMG! I am giddy! I love this drama!

ARRGGGGHHHH!!!! DAMNIT! Daniel and Melanie get an ornament on the Horton tree?? That sucks! I can't stand this. Melanie is too holier than thou and I can't stand her clinging to Maggie. UGH....what an ugly part of a great episode.

You've Been Served

Cutter finds out that Gigi-face is actually Gigi. For a second I thought he was going to tell her. But that's not Cutter..lol. They decide to flee Llanview and start a new life. After spinning the globe to find out where to start, her finger lands on Paris, Texas. Coincidence?? Someone's memory is about to return.

Again....I really like Rex and Aubrey. I know I keep saying it, but they are great together! The two of them are trying to figure out the whole Stacy/Gigi mystery. Kim's name comes up. Aubrey fills in a shocked Rex about Kim and Cutter's family ties. Looks like we are going to see Kimmie soon =)

Porno Rick is suing Starr, Dani, James, and Nate for the injuries (caused by himself) that happened at Dorian's.

Todd's plan to frame Tomas is starting to fall into place. I'm sure Tea and John won't buy it.

Poor Shaun =( He just wants to marry Vivian. He's such a sweet guy.

Soap Couple Saturday

OLTL's Patrick and Marty

Gigi the Original

Todd is sticking to John like glue. Trying to make sure John doesn't find out about Jack starting the fire. I like these two. Not as much as I liked John and TSJ, but this will do.

Blair is defending Tomas left and right. So is Tea. Why is Jack the only one who realizes that Tomas wouldn't be stupid enough to keep the murder weapon or leave prints. He's a spy. I'm sure he can cover his tracks in his sleep.

Shaun is such a sweet guy. It's great how he is still looking over Victor's family.

Shane and Neela. He tells her the story about Gigi's death and how Jack was responsible. Could've been a future triangle with Jack. But stupid ABC axed any future.

I hate that I'm really starting to like Rex and Aubrey. There is obviously no future so not sure why I can't accept that =(

Well what do ya know? We were all right on the money. Gigi-face IS actually Gigi. I guess there will be no Rex and Aubrey anymore =(

**Brian Frons is OUT as the head of ABC!! WooHoo!! Karma baby...Karma!
