Now, if there was no indication that Todd and Tea are next in Mitch's plan, then I would totally agree that Todd and Tea being on are just for the sake of Todd and Tea being on and I wouldn't really like it. I don't think that's the case though.

Drew, the point is Todd and Téa are insufferable and that Todd is a cancer to every scene he is in and needs to die. LOL
Your opinoin. I FLOVE Todd and Tea, so seeing them a lot doesn't bother me. :lol:
When are you going to learn, my "opinion" is always GOSPEL! :lol:

Honestly though, how someone could like a character that air quotes gang raping a woman is beyond me.

I also have to say that I'm going to miss Stacy.

I can't believe I'm saying this because she was unbearable her first 6 months but she steadily grew on me. I also think she brings a bit more out of Farah Fath. I just loved their scenes together today.

I do wish JPL would tone it down. I get so sick of his yelling and over the top acting.

Well as someone who feels that their opinion is the gospel, I say bring it on. :welcome:

I love Todd and all of his flaws. And one of the main reason I can still like the character is because his flaws are never forgotten. Yes, his loved ones may look over his past because of their love for him, but throw someone in that scene that is no friend of Todd and his past is going to be dragged out in an instance and Todd takes it because he knows what he did in the past was wrong. He doesn't try to deny anything. He accepts it and that's one of the main reasons I can like a monster like Todd Manning.

For me, I just can't like characters like Todd who never truly have to pay for their despicable acts and because of this never EVER learn or care to learn from their disgusting immoral mistakes. See, Luke Spencer and EJ DiMera.

I agree. TSJ phoning it in for the past few months, isn't helping matters either.

Few months? How about since he started on the show. He only tries on rare occasions.

LOL I have been watching since 2008, so I first saw him during everyone finding out about Tarty and his suicide attempt. I thought he was good then. He has sucked for the most part, but his suckiness has been alot more consistent since about September for me. :laugh:

I love Todd and Téa, but I do feel the need for a small rest from them.

I think that part of the transition issue comes from how OLTL is taped. The out of sequence stuff seems to throw off continuity at times.

And sometimes I think they feel that they need to try and include all characters/storylines and/or break up all the tension with other things. Honestly I think they could have done a week or even two with just the Llantano mountain stuff. But then you get nothing of the other major storylines. So I am sure in putting things together they put in things like Todd/Tea to break up the other drama. It is the one thing with Ron's story umbrellas because they involved so many other stories coming together under one umbrella but others are completely left out. I actually don't think it is a bad thing, but I have the feeling that there is someone else behind the scenes sticking his nose in where it shouldn't be thinking he knows what is best. :whistle:

OLTL must tape WAY in advance. I mean how long is Mitch supposed to be on there? RB stopped taping quite awhile ago didn't he?

I wish someone would break Erika Slezak of the horrible habbit she has of throwing the last syllable of sentences into that awfully shrill high pitched tone. Its bad acting 101, how's it been allowed to slide for so long?!

if Frons was actually paying attention to OLTL, Ron would have been out a long time ago for a showkiller.

There's nothing wrong with how they're intercutting the other stories with the culmination of the umbrella arc. These peoples lives dont stop just because Mitch is causing shit on the mountain. OLTL is one of the rare shows where 95% of the characters are integrated with each other, so if they're not on the mountain they're going to be worried about whats going on up on the mountain. And if they have side conversations about other non-mountain issues, whatever. Thats life.

So long Nurse Charles!
Enjoy hell bitch.

Loved SuperFish.

Kyle and Roxy was nice today.
I like when friends have each others backs on soaps.
This is why I'm a fan of Stacy and Kim.

Stacy has done some horrible things,
but Kim is still willing to go to the mat for her friend.

I for one will miss Stacy when she goes.

John and Natalie still are great together.
Loved seeing the flashbacks.

Frons doesn't care about the show beyond John and Todd so when it comes to those two I wouldn't be surprised if he makes sure they are in pretty much every episode, if possible. That is what I'm talking about.

I think the only reason Ron is there is because Frons has already given up on OLTL. No HD. Left all alone in LA. The show is bleeding ratings without any response from him. While it's still around, he still wants to please his favorite actors in hopes he can keep them around when he finally pulls the plug on OLTL.

How the hell Ron has managed to write the kind of show he has under these kind of conditions is a trust testament to his talent.

TSJ''s cure my insomnia acting and the over-inundation of TNT is the thing that doesn't work for me. Even if TNT are positioned for the next story, it's not necessary for Todd to be on 7 days straight. He has more airtime than Viki and it's her daughters that are missing.
