I hope the hype spreads beyond just the internet, so the show's ratings might actually go up. OLTL so does not deserve to be near the very bottom of the ratings.

no it doesnt. but it is screwed by its leadin and follow up.

im shocked RC hasnt been outed yet. i am assuming the hype has saved him? and im not saying the show isnt fab cuz it is, but the ratings are horrid

It's probably because Frons couldn't give two shits about it. He focuses his destruction on AMC and GH

I'm kinda surprised by that too, but I think Frons knows that there would be some kind of revolt if Carlivati were fired, LoL. The ratings may be atrocious, but OLTL hasn't been this critically successful since...well, I don't even know, LoL. And the cast seems to adore him for the most part, too.

That is very true too. OLTL doesn't even seem to register on his radar compared to the other two.

After all... tomorrow is another day!

Actually last year I watched my first OLTL episode ever when I participated in this challenge Steve issued about watching other soaps (this was back during the Todd vs. Marcy court battle) and I thought it was pretty great then, but I fell off from watching it at all during the writers strike (i also hardly watched DOOL during this time).

I can't say I am going to be watching OLTL every day like I tend to do with DOOL, but I have been tuning in to the OLTL repeats on SoapNet when I can/when I remember for the last week or so and I am really loving the stories around Starr's pregnancy and the Jared-Natalie-David Vicker thing. (I flove flove flove David) I really liked the Rex-Adrianna wedding too. And I love Dorian. So yeah, there is a lot to like here. :)

So what's Lindsay's big secret(s) that R.J. was talking about on Wednesday's show?

This may be wrong but I think its that she told Bo she was not of sound mind when she killed Spencer (she was faking it) hence why he told the court he would be her guardian. (That's why she's living with him.)

Ah, okay. I figured it probably had something to do with her killing Spencer, but I wasn't sure what. Thanks!

it's more to do with Nora though than her lying to Bo. If she's outted for faking her breakdown, Nora can go after her legally.

I wasnt watching during Dena Higley's mess, was Lindsay actually put on trial? Or was she just declared insane by a doctor and sent to the institution. If there wasnt a trial, she could be charged with murder one.

RC wrote the trial. That's how Bo became Lindsay's legal gaurdian or whatever.

Frons was big about the musical, but pretty much OLTL is treated like Cinderella is treated by her stepmother and stepsisters.

Friday's episode was great. Shane calling Audriana "Uglyana" was hilarious.

I don't get that because I watched today too and it was a Prom Night episode from last summer.
