A Cookout with Carlo Hesser

ONE LIFE TO LIVE
"The day I'm too old for free candy is the day I'm dead." LOL! I love Todd =) He wants the family to Toilet Paper the Buchanan house together. Little shark Sam is super cute, even when he is calling Todd "scarface." The cutie remembers Marcie and Michael calling him Tommy. He and Todd agree that Victor was a good dad because he would make people give him candy.

Todd asks Jack-o-lantern Blair if she wants to make out. OLTL is too much! I can't stand how awesome it is =)

Clint is hating on Ford. Shouldn't he hate on Brody even more? Brody is the bigger villain in my opinion. Ford sticks to his guns and Clint agrees to a truce =) I am loving Clint more and more lately. His stubbornness is fun and endearing. OLTL is doing a great job making him the new Asa.

Clint's softer side is just as important as his stubbornness. Much like Asa, he sure knows how to win over a woman (even when he's not trying). Going down memory lane with Viki melts my heart. We were almost treated to a kiss. Maybe next time...

Jessica and Ford bring Bree to the party for a minute. Poor Bree. First she thought Brody was going to be her dad, now he is marrying her aunt.

Clint and Tina finally kiss! She tells him he is the world's worst liar. And she knows this because she is the world's best! Looks like she is right. He gives in and things are about to happen in the hay.

The Halloween party is hilarious! Roxy and Tina fighting is a RIOT!! Roxy accuses her of speaking "phony French" and calls out "where's Dorian when we need her!"

DAYS OF OUR LIVES
Victor, Bo, Hope, Maggie, Jennifer, John, Marlena! Days sure knows how to write for their vets =)

Maggie tells Vic about Daniel being her son. Vic finds it hard to believe since he knows the parents and has known Daniel all of his life. PLEASE don't let him be behind all this. I know he has a little something to do with it, but I hope it's nothing major. Nothing to ruin his relationship with Maggie.

Daniel isn't as thrilled to find out about his parentage as Melanie and Maggie are. Kudos to Days for making this real (well, as real as egg stealing can get..LOL). When someone finds out their parents are not their parents, they will probably be upset. There shouldn't be an instant embrace and acceptance of the "new" parent.

Abe recognizes John in his costume. He urges him to go home and agrees not to turn him in for skipping out on his house arrest (how he did that...I'm not sure). I have a feeling that decision will come back to haunt him in the campaign.

Nicole gets introduced to Madison. She's a little jealous about her closeness to Brady, but surprisingly Nic is mature about it. Brady, on the other hand, vows to "break the son-of-a-bitch" in half if EJ hurts Nicole. LOVE IT!

Soap Couple Saturday--A day late

OLTL's Oliver Fish and Kyle

When Michael met Britney

ONE LIFE TO LIVE
Stacy/Gigi is sickened to think she was so obsessed with Rex. She is sounding more and more like Gigi. Cutter convinces her to go to the party. Did I sense a little guilt for a minute there Cutter?

Liam is a baby Seal! He is the cutest little television baby. Grandpa Clint and Grandma Viki stay home to babysit Liam and Princess David Vickers. Viki thinks Clint looks best with a baby in his arms. Awe...I love them! I think they both look at their best when they are together =)

I love the brotherly bonding between the McBains. Battleship, beer, and love advice. Michael is even making sound effects and gloating for sinking John's battleship. HA! So real! Of course John doesn't have candy for the trick-or-treaters. He hands out cash instead..lol.

The 3 Musketeers look good together. I don't mind replacing Gigi with Aubrey in this family. I'm sure I am in the minority on that one. Oh well.

Cowboy and Cowgirl (Cord and Tina)

Roxy is the best! I think she needs to be Retro Britney every day...lol. Her date is Shawn, aka Michael Jackson! OH I love this show! "Cut the bait, or get off the fish." ROFL!

I love it when soaps acknowledge all the holidays. Not just Christmas. Halloween is so fun!

DAYS OF OUR LIVES

Loving these costumes. Caroline went all out with the Cheetah makeup. So fun!

The Hernandez family look like a bunch of kids from Grease. Little Johnny is the cutest as always. Sami disappoints Marlena and Rafe when she expresses her doubt about John's innocence. 

Clever of John to wear a mask so he can attend the festivities with Marlena. They are so cute. So in love. Classic soap =)

Melanie and Abby are both in the exact same French Maid costume. That's a recipe for disaster. I guess Chad will be "accidentally" kissing Melanie later..lol. AND....just like that, it happens. Predictably, Abby witnesses the kiss.

Elvis Dimera and Nicole are dressed as Elvis Presley and Priscilla! GENIUS!  Mama Susan mention ;-) Nic wants to send a pic to Susan to show that he lives up to his name. The Presley's share a passionate kiss (photo-op).

Ok, I have not kept my dislike for Melanie a secret. But I will admit that the Daniel/Maggie/Melanie family reveal did bring tears to my eyes. I'm sure it had a lot to do with Maggie's reaction and her joy of finding her son.

Overall, this was a fund day for my soaps! I love days like this =)

Retro Britney

ONE LIFE TO LIVE
John's last MyFace status update says "Getting Married in the morning." I love the talk between the McBain family. Marcie reminds her brother-in-law the Brody once got violent with her.

ROFL!! Roxy is dressed as Britney Spears. Natalie to Rox, "Where's your costume?" LOVE IT!! "You have been biting your nails...might it be because you are making the biggest mistake of your life?" Tell it Roxy! "John-Mc-Bain! Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining." OMG! I can fill this blog up with lines from Roxy. She is about to spill to Natty about John still loving her when Brody walks in. DARN IT!! He kisses a little butt, calls her "mom" and Mrs. Balsom turns to jello.

Cutter is such a sleaze ball! Aubrey gives him a huge smack across the face.

Rex gets a visit from his old pal Marcie. A soap that does not forget it's history and past relationships...YES please! What a concept (hear that General Hospital??)! Rex introduces her as his long time enemy-turned-friend =) She is pissed to meet Aubrey. She heard about how she hurt Joey.

Hope is the cutest little Planters Peanut ever!

Austin Reed....AKA Porno Guy wants all 3 Ford brothers in Starr's music video. Talking about Fraternity Row and Vickers Reality show not being picked up, Rick says "show's you what the suits know." Subtle dig at Mr. Brian Frons maybe?? I think so! HEHEHE!


DAYS OF OUR LIVES
We get to see Mad World offices today. Brady gets forced into being a model for the new line. AND...there goes his shirt. Ms Madison likes it =) Sami looks a tad bit uncomfortable being in the same room while Madison rubs her hands all over Brady..LOL. WOW! What a sexy shave and lotion rub.

There is my favorite (ha) character, Melanie. She is doing her best to keep Maggie's mind off her long lost child. The elder is giving the younger some love and life advice. Lots of bonding between the two. Oh no! I don't like where I see this going.  Boo!

Bo and Hope break in to the lab to find out who Maggie's child is. They are at their best when they are working together on a mystery. They get the name of the woman who took the eggs and head straight for Maggie. Lillian Parker. That's the woman's name. Ringing any bells? NO! NO! NO! Lillian is Daniel's mom. Maggie is Melanie's grandma. UGH!!

Case of the Stupids

ONE LIFE TO LIVE
OMG! Jack finds a not-dead Gigi/Stacy in the cemetery. He freaks out and runs off to Victor's grave. Ummm....If I saw a "ghost" at a cemetery, I would run away from the place. I would not run to another grave in the same cemetery. But....that's just me..lol.

Cutter finds Stacy/Gigi and explains the twisted story to her. Why wouldn't he just let her believe she is Gigi? That would make it easier to trick Rex.

Blair is still pissed about Tomas almost getting himself sent to prison for a crime he didn't do. He compares her to Tea and she says "that's not a way to win any points with me." HA! Good to see a little dig at her former enemy.

Todd and Viki! I love them =) RH is awesome! He eats the halloween candy, then spits some back in the treat bags...LOL. It's the little things that I love about RH. Talking with his mouth full. I remember a scene w/TSJ where Todd was taking huge bites from a sandwich during their conversation. Eating messy, talking with his mouth full, and having zero manners. He's a riot! I will point out that TSJ did little things like that too. I want them BOTH on my screen damn it! =(

Tina walks in and now we have a fight between the brother and sister. Viki of course stays neutral. More funny...Todd slaps Tina's hand away from the candy bowl. He told Tina she has a "case of the stupids." ROFL!! Tina! Viki! Todd! I could go on and on. It does not get much better than this!! I can tell ES is enjoying these scenes. I am too!


DAYS OF OUR LIVES
Marlena is doing her grandma duties and getting in to the Halloween spirit with Will and his friends. Will seems too "goody-goody" for my liking. He needs more of an edge, or something interesting. He needs a non-Gabi story! I wonder if they are planning on going back to the story they had planned for him (don't want to be specific and risk spoiling it for someone). I hope they do. He and Gabi bore me to tears.

Shut up about Abby's boyfriend, Melanie!! She annoys me. Abby seems annoyed too.

EJ defends Nicole to his daddy. Stefano may not like it, but I do believe EJ is in love with her.

Poor Austin. He has been catching hell from Carrie, Rafe, and now Marlena snubs him. He still has mama Kate on his side. Austin makes the most sense out of everyone else concerning the John situation. What if his mind is still messed up after all he has been through? He could be guilty and not even know it.

Kate, predictably, is HORRIFIED when she finds out Austin is staying with Sami. She warns him, the same way she has warned him for years. And she doesn't shy away from throwing out some insults about her nemesis. Is it the 90's? It's starting to look that way (and that's a good thing)!

More McBains!!

ONE LIFE TO LIVE
Michael!!! Pregnant Marcie!!! I love these 2! Marcie talks to John about her hurt over losing Tommy/Sam. She wanted to jump on a plane and be with Sam after hearing of Victor's death. NICE! OLTL does NOT forget it's history. I love it!

Brody is sounding a little jealous over Jessica and Ford. I see glimpses of the Brody I grew to love. The Brody that loved Jessica.

Tina is in full-on wedding planning mode. She is not sure about sticking Nigel and Roxy at the same table. I want to be at that table! That would be a riot..LOL!

Rex and Aubrey continue to bond. She cleans up his bloody face and manages a little flirting at the same time. They are pretty cute together. I was never a huge fan of Rex/Gigi. I liked him with Jen and Adrianna. Aubrey seems likable with him. They are in party planning mode too. Tequila floats and naked twister....too funny!

Cutter is going crazy looking for Gigi. He figures out she went to Llanfair and heads her way.

Stacy/Gigi is lurking around Llanfair. Tina answers the door and come's face-to-face with her. She heads over to her grave before Jessica can come to the door.

Rama scares the bajeezus out of Vimal when she sneaks up and interrupts his conversation with Victor's headstone. Rama tracked him down because he "checked-in" to the cemetery on his MyFace page. BTW...Madame Delphina "Likes" that post. ROFL!! OLTL never disappoints on the funny =)


DAYS OF OUR LIVES
Marlena corners Brady and forces him to have a sit-down about his attitude towards John. The step-mama wants a father/son reunion. She wants answers from Brady. "My daddy tells me when I am doing something wrong." "My daddy tries to tell me how to live my life." "My daddy doesn't help me." Blah Blah Blah! Brady is sounding like a cry-baby right now. Either he's a spoiled brat or there is a bigger reason why he won't speak to his father.

Belle mention! Apparently she is in touch with her parents daily. She would drop everything to be there for John during this crisis, but daddy insists that she not come home. He doesn't want her to become a target.

Here come the mysterious phone calls. Madison gets a call and warns the person on the other end NOT to come to Salem. She doesn't want her plans ruined. Who might that be?

Maggie finds out what happened to her eggs. But the clinic won't release the name of the woman that had her baby. The mystery woman claimed that those were her own eggs.

Rafe is still furious about the Sami/Austin accidental naked fall he walked in on. As he is raking them over the coals, Carrie calls his phone. OOPS! Their spouses don't look happy. Carrie is not happy to hear about Austin's living arrangements. She is annoyed with her sister. Hang on!! Here we go!!

Darnell Williams signs with All My Children

Daytime Confidential is reporting that Darnell Williams (Jesse) has signed with Prospect Park. This is great news for All My Children fans. Or is it? Jesse without Angie will take some getting used to. Maybe the writers can put Angie in a coma (recovering from a bullet wound??) and leave the door open for a possible Debbi Morgan return.
