#OLTL 96. I love her so much. Every soap heroine should have this kind of fire for the villain. Way too often a “good” character is written to ignore or look past another’s bad deeds in order to better integrate them onto the canvas.
#OLTL Mar 01. So you're telling me that Colin's house overlooks some woods where college kids like to party? I am still firmly of the belief that Max/Gabrielle's old house got sold to become the KAD house, and then got sold to become residential again after the Spring Fling. 🤣
#OLTL Mar 01. Todd offering to help Skye find her father is something I def don't remember. While I never liked Todd on That Hospital Show, I must admit that seeing a version of him interact with a full complement of early 00s Quartermaines is intriguing enough.
#OLTL Mar 01. Rae booking a flight between Llanview, PA and Port Charles, NY seems like a waste of fuel but then I remember that Starr/Cole/Hope got run off the road the second they crossed town lines so maybe a plane is better after all?

Karen told Will about Talbot's accidental hit-and-run "murder" of Brian. Tina received threatening letters written in a childish script. Viki remembered writing similar letters during her split personality days as Niki. (cont.)
#OLTL Mar 01. Second episode in a row that brings up Max's kids and how he's not a father to them.
#OLTL Mar 01. The compare/contrast scenes between Bo/Melanie trying to defuse the bomb with Todd/Blair trying to save each other in the evidence locker are truly bad. This is what the general public thinks of when they think soap operas.
#OLTL Mar 01. Oh wait, maybe this is supposed to be one of Gina's goons?? idk idk I'm not paying attention to that story lmao
#OLTL Mar 01. Who is this?!? Is this supposed to be Seth? (It's not Brandon Routh, though, who starts in May) 🤔🤔🤔
Soap Opera Character Showdown - Elite 8 Match-Up #3
Dorian Lord (14) (hit like) vs. Viki Lord (6) (hit repost) #OneLifetoLive #OLTL
#OLTL 96. The twin babies that play Starr in 96-98 are the cutest possible babies. Those cheeks! The show must've loved them too, because they kept them as long as possible. Weird to think there's, like, one interim Starr for a mere few eps between this infant and Kristen Alderson.
#OLTL Mar 01. This is a crazy clip (complimentary) given:
- Skye mentioning being a mother (GH needs Lila Rae!)
- Max noting he had the twins at Christmas
- the line about Max/Gabrielle now that I know about their 1980s stories
- the in-universe inference that Max talks more about the twins than Al!
#OLTL Mar 01.
Bo, to the Bomb Squad: I know who set the bomb and I'm smarter than him. There's no way he's going to blow up my office.
#OLTL Mar 01. Very odd to see Skye show back up after 2 weeks worth of episodes off - the last one being where she got out of prison, broke up with Max, and told him that she could be found "out there finding herself." Genuinely thought she had left Llanview for Port Charles by now.
#OLTL Mar 01.
Asa: That's an awful big pair of scissors ...
Starr: I'm going to cut [Max] some flowers.
Asa: So you're stealing my scissors and my flowers.
Starr: No, no, no. I'm borrowing.
#OLTL Mar 01. Gina holding Viki hostage is stupid as hell, but I did have the smallest grin at Viki's disgust at being held in a basement. Like, girl, your alters did that to Dorian in grosser conditions than this!
All three Lord-Manning siblings are the #dnd characters that have high int, high cha but stat-burned their wisdom into negatives to do it. And then each took a unique learning disability as a flaw for a bonus feat: Empowered By Water #OLTL
#OLTL Mar 01. A real laugh out loud moment as Bo tells Melanie that the bomb is "very powerful" and then it immediately cuts to Todd, locked inside the evidence locker, climbing the chain fence to try to build leverage. A very smart idiot set that bomb.
#OLTL Mar 01. Oh my god, we have a Guy Armitage name drop in the year 2001. That's wild.
#OLTL Mar 01. Todd's relationship with bombs is really predicated on prior events. Like, in 98 he straps fake dynamite to himself because he learned that he ran into trouble setting bombs in 97. But here in 2001, he's learned that he ran into trouble with fake bombs so he's back to the real stuff. 🤷♀️

Karen freaked that her old "Johns" Talbot & Dennis would expose her to Larry. Viki told Karen about her split personality phase. Tina decided not to be Marco's model. Jack kissed Carla, but she resisted & returned to Ed. (cont.)
