End of Week Commentary

Sorry I haven't been around for so long---soaps have been boring me lately, and I've had alot and nothing to say at the same time. But I've got a couple minutes to kill, so let's go. Am I wrong for not liking OLTL's Danielle? I find her to be a snobby, entitled brat and I can't stand her. I've got problems with that entire storyline for so many reasons its unreal. Firstly, all of the adults involved--Blair, Todd, Tea and Ross--were out for their own gain and not thinking about Danielle...

OLTL Week in Review

First off, big congrats to OLTL and Susan Haskell for taking home the Emmy this past Sunday! A big welcome to Llanview for Saundra Santiago, who debuted as Carlotta on Thursday I believe. In other news, this week was a little boring.We were able to find out that the mayor is crooked and has a potential druggie for a son, who Cole just happened to sell the drugs to this week. That let the mayor in on Cole's undercover status, thanks to big-mouthed Dorian and Todd, who both did a very wrong...

GH Week in Review--8/24/09

This week was pretty diverse in who it featured, which is a nice change from the Sonny and Claudia show. Sonny told Claudia that he wanted to stay married, which is still a mystery to me. We all know Sonny has feelings for Olivia, not Claudia. I think on some level Sonny feels something towards Claudia, we've seen that since she came into town. But whether or not all of those feelings are sexually related remains to be seen. They have brief moments where they can sit and talk like two...

OLTL Week in Review--week of 8/24/09

This week of OLTL actually wasn't that bad. We found out during the Friday cliffhanger that the elusive Ross Rayburn is living under an assumed name (and not too creative either) of Ross Raymond in Tahiti and is Tea's partner in crime in a whole new way---he's actually her husband. I was reading the weekly Two Scoops over on Soapcentral.com and the author of this week's column mentioned that she liked the way it played out; Ross getting closer to revealing his marriage to Tea at the very...

Won't You Take Me Down.......to Delusion Town

Yes, ripped from another song. Nope..still not apologizing.Today's epi was all about crazy women and their delusions. Teabag's delusional simply for thinking that Todd is capable of love in any capacity, with anyone, Blair is delusional for thinking that messing up Todd and Tea's relationship will send him flying back to her, and Stacy's delusional for....need I say more?Teabag's trying to hit up Tahiti, which happens to be the same place Blair is headed. Too bad Todd interfered in Tea's...

Blown Covers--AMC 8/25/09

I guess it's safe to say Amanda blew her own whistle on Operation Baby Drop. The bewilderment in David's eyes as he realized this wasn't a random outburst from a grieving mother was a classic David reaction, and from the spoilers, he's about to let Liza have it as his own suspicions finally bubble over the surface. I still don't like Marissa. I just can't catch on to her. She keeps asking people to give David the benefit of the doubt. JR of all people is not going to be making any niceties...

Clinty's Got A Gun

Yep, I stole that title straight from Aerosmith and tweaked it to fit my purpose. No, I'm not apologizing for it. Rex's apology to Sky seemed a bit like a warning for him as well. It was pretty rotten though, he couldn't even look Sky in the face. He doesn't handle feeling threatened by another man too well; now he must know what it was like for Gigi when she had to watch him with Stacy, knowing it was a lie. Tenfold for the Gigster though, since she was feeling threatened by her own...

Steamy Kisses, Glued Hands, Bar Punches and Hangovers

GHBecky's waking up with a hell of a hangover today, huh? And poor Dante, he wanted some booty but took the chivalrous route and decided not to take advantage of her. I hadn't realized Molly and Nik were related; I usually forget since they never interact with each other. It's good to see older characters interacting with younger ones, and not only so that they can sabotage others or scold the younger ones. Molly and Nik are actually having a conversation, which is a change from the usual...

Thursday Suds--AMC

I really wish Frankie had put his foot down and stayed adamant that they couldn't keep the baby. Randi is completely ignoring that their marriage needs to be fixed and Frankie's trust is kind of lost in her for keeping North's death a secret from him. Granted, she had a good reason for keeping the secret, but that doesn't change the fact that Frankie's trust is lost. She needs to fix that instead of using the baby as a Band-Aid for their problems. And like Frankie, I think Randi owes Angie...

Seances, Stalkers and Blackmail, Oh My! OLTL Midweek Mashup

Not much to say for OLTL's midweek mashup.Langston's still getting on my nerves a bit. She's asking so many questions. I know she's used to Starr telling her everything, but its obvious Starr doesn't want to talk about it. Let it go. And stop pestering Starr. David's reality show where he's putting everyone's deeds on blast kind of parodies the show in a dry, sarcastic way and I find it pretty funny. Markko's face was priceless when Clint came in the room with the gun. That was a total...

Operation Baby Drop.....Goes Awry. AMC Midweek Mashup

Okay, it's 6:36 my time and I have to give two days' worth of AMC bitchin' before OLTL comes on so bear with me.I hadn't realized the good part of Jake not giving Liza Amanda's baby. Liza wanted another baby; she saw this as her way of correcting the wrongs she'd made with Colby, and if she'd kept Amanda's baby she would eventually have to give the baby back. At first, I feared that Liza would become obsessed with the baby and not give him back when Amanda inevitably changed her mind....

Randomisms before Reviews

AMC 8/17/09 --Marissa had me angry at first by actually being mad that JR had the gall to choose little Adam over her. Are you serious right now, Marissa? Really? David has spent the better part of the past year doing almost nothing except trying to get Adam away from JR. So if at any time he mentions that he is willing to stop, any parent would say yes. Get over yourself and be a woman, Marissa. You should have encouraged him to make sure his son was safe at all costs. No relationship...

Cat and Mouse...and Kate--GH 8/11/09

GHMaxie has elevated from putting her foot in her mouth; it's now at a steady rate towards her esophagus. And it officially hit her intestines when Kate decided to be opportunistic about the wedding and Maxie decided on September. I think the best thing Maxie could have done was just to sit Spinelli down, tell him to stop trying to badger her with a proposal, and tell him why her view is so low when it comes to marriage. The boy is annoying, but I admired his courage with Mac and for that,...

Oh, David!! --OLTL

OLTL Am I the only one who finds the Blair/Todd/Tea triangle a bit stupid? Anyone with half a brain knows that Todd and Blair will find their way back to each other at some point; I think Blair needs a man that's not already a resident of Llanview so that she can move on and stop her obsession with Todd's life. It absolutely eats at her that Tea, her worst enemy, admits the same thing and gets the guy, while she admits the same thing, and not only does not get the guy, but she has to watch...

Tuning in on Tuesday

AMCI liked the conversation between David and Scott today. It gave me more insight into who David is really at the core of his soul, and I like how Scott seemed to be drinking it up. I wonder if this is signaling a character shift in the future. I was able to see that David is conscious of his decisions, but it goes against the grain of his character to acknowledge and feed into the regrets that he doesn't allow himself to feel. He doesn't allow himself to feel because even though it will...
