Monday's episode was awesome. Talia is carlo's daughter? I missed the end of Thursday's episode..so i had no clue. Christopher Cosins back as Cain Rogan is awesome. The man looks great!! That is one hot man...even with his salt and pepper hair!! :-) Lindsay,Bo, and Nora were thrilling to watch. The Todd and Cole scenes were great too. Brandon Buddy is impressing me more and more each day.

I didn't know who Cain Rogan or Carlo Hesser were (I just read about them here on the boards), just even with just some slight background info I was totally into all the Mendorra stuff today. I didn't know that Tina wasn't really the princess! This coupled with the Nora/Lindsay/Bo stuff made for a great episode. I really hope Clint and Nora breakup over this whole thing. They bug me at times individually, but together Clint and Nora just irritate me to no end.
The Nora/Lindsay/Bo on-going saga has got to end. The problem is that Nora and Bo should've reunited a long time ago but since the actors aren't for it, it really drags the story down.
Lindsay and R.J. were hot together. Bring him back and give them a meaty story.
I'm all for the Lindsay/Bo/Nora saga continuing because as of right now, it is something different. Usually it was Lindsay manipulating the two, causing trouble, etc. But now it's Miss Goody Goody Nora. Notice how everyone, including Clint and Matthew, jumped to Lindsay's defense after she pulled that stunt? Even Bo didn't care that Lindsay faked her breakdown; he cared because she lied.
I loved every minute of it and can't wait to see where it goes.
I know Bo said that it's the lie that bothered him, not the faking of the breakdown, but I think that's hogwash. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad people didn't just condemn Lindsay after finding out she faked the breakdown. But for Bo to pretend like he would have been okay with it if she'd told him is a bit ridiculous. Imagine the position Lindsay would have been putting him in if she'd told him?
Anyway, I'm liking it, and maybe Bo and Nora will work their way back to each other.
I guess I could get picky and mention what annoyed me about the marriage...
Bo immediately proposed to Lindsay because he said Nash dying and his funeral made him realize how short life is. Well, Bo has been through a TON in his life. He's lost his son, his fiancee (Gabrielle) and most recently, his dad. If anyone should know life short is, it would be him. But Nash made him realize that?
I also thought it was a bit selfish for Bo to marry Lindsay the day after Nash's funeral and the day of his burial. How could he expect his loved ones (i.e. Viki, Clint) to be happy (which most people are on wedding days) when they just buried Jessica's husband?
Again, these are VERY MINOR flaws, but I did notice them. However, I'm loving every minute of this storyline. And just about every other storyline on OLTL.
One of the things I liked about the wedding and proposal was how much subtle tensions it created with a lot of people. I'm sure some people were kind of resentful that Bo decided to marry Lindsay on the day Nash was buried. And the situation with Nora owning the mansion seems to be getting tense as well. After Matthew offered to have the wedding there, I bet everyone was just waiting to see what Nora would do because she couldn't stand having them get married in her house, which Clint and Bo rightfully still regard as their family home. There's so much going on. I love it.
For the love of all that is holy, will someone PLEASE explain to me what is going on between Robert Woods and Hillary B Smith and their significant others, that the characters of Bo and Nora can't be reunited? I believe this is the only couple in daytime history to never have reunited at least one time. Thats why their fans are so bonkers, there was never really any closer. It was clear when they broke up Bo still loved Nora and Nora still loved Bo. It irritates me because that is so...OPEN. Bo has never remarried since and Nora's love choices have been well..crazy (although Nora and Troy were hot).
Sorry so long winded, but I'm really curious as to what is going on with the actors.
I miss the days of old Hollywood, when Cary Grant would slap Katharine Hepburn, stars were mysterious and intriguing and music required class and TALENT.
It was a good show! Everyone was good. Williamson is SO much better as Tess than as Jessica. My favorite though was Hillary Smith. Nora was practically salivating as she had Lindsay arrested.

Congrats to Kathy Griffin on her second consecutive emmy win!

Loved today's show. Alot happening all over the place. Storylines moved at an awesome pace. Blair,Todd, and Starr were my highlight today. Thrilling scenes to watch with great acting. David and Viki were fun to watch as always. Brian Kerwin was spot on today with his material.

It does seem thought that Ron C is finally moving in that direction or at the very least acknowleding it on screen. Loved Monday's episode with Nora having Lindsay arressted and Lindsay calling her out for her obession with Bo.
Congrats to Kathy Griffin on her second consecutive emmy win!

Pretty thrilling episode today. All the Cole,Starr,Blair, and John stuff was great to watch. Brandon Buddy is becoming a very fine young actor. I am impressed. This week Kristen Alderson has been delivering fine performances. Now this week is Emmy worthy for this girl. The Todd and Mike and Marcie scenes were awesome too. Brier killed me at the end when Michael walked out on Marcie. Mark Lawson as Brody is a frickin' dreamboat..and he delivered his best performance so far... opposite JPL today. I also think JPL is suffering in his scenes with mediocre actress Farrah Fath.I do not see the chemistry between Rex and Gigi. The only time Fath is good enough to root for is when she is playing opposite Erika Slezak. Other than that..she is the damn pits!! Other than the Rex and Gigi scenes..OLTL was on fire today!!

That was a beautifully written somber episode. I absolutely love how Starr's Pregnancy is now turning into yet ANOTHER fabulous umbrella story ivolving characters who don't even know they're involved yet. When Marty enters the story it could really go somewhere special. I am loving EVERY story right now. When Carlo entered the picture, the Tina storyline is even picking up even though I'm still deeply disappointed. I'm starting to wonder if even Evans' star power is not enough to match up against the rest of the talented cast. Her camp gets slightly amaeteur and nausiating(see Strasser, Watkins and Payton Wright on the same show for high class camp) in this day in age. One Life To Live is just not that kind of show anymore. And this is coming from someone who used to once view Tina Lord Roberts their favorite soap character of all time and the consumate bad girl turned heroine to which every other one would be compared to for soap eternity. Until I was introduced to another bad girl turned heroine named Marty Saybrooke. Am I the only one who just feels that Evans is throwing off some episodes with her Passions/Days acting techniques. Dial it down Andrea! You're on a real show now...

Actually, she took Tina over to "Passions."
