Brett just posted on twitter ; "If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?? For I must be traveling on now, cause there's too many places I've got to see..." I'm about to cry all over again. :( |

I know nothing about show business, except that no course should be abandoned without a viable alternative. Oliver's coming out, Amelia's rally for marriage equality, the hate crime against Nick, and Kyle's love for Sierra were timely, passionate and intelligent stories that convinced people who once scoffed at soaps to give OLTL a chance. Does OLTL have any other characters or stories that are bringing in new viewers? I can't think of any, which is a shame for a soap that excels at the technical aspects of ensemble storytelling. I love that I can't watch one story without crossing into others, but the magic between Kyle and Oliver is desperately needed right now. Working single mom Gigi lost her pride a long time ago. The wonderful Evans family isn't being promoted. Charlie can't catch a break, and where is glamourous Layla? I certainly don't buy that mainstream viewers find Kim selling herself more palatable than homosexuality, but guess who was offered a contract? And who isn't fast-forwarding shirtless Ford? That said, I think it's absurd to blame the poor ratings on a couple of supporting characters, no matter what their storyline was. Even if a million people quit watching during November sweeps because Kyle and Oliver were kissing once a week, wouldn't that be a million people who didn't care enough to watch hour upon hour, day after day of Mitch digging up a corpse, waving a gun around, and leaping out of his coffin? A million people who didn't agree that Todd and Téa making faces every day is must-see TV? OLTL has problems, but the socially relevant storylines are none of them. Those who would houseclean should sweep the rat droppings out of the master bedroom first. |

Coming out of lurkedom to post how upset I am at this news. I just found this story a month ago and now it is going away. :waah: I don't get this mainstream media bullshit because I am a 25 year old straight married female and this story has been my favorite ever in soaps. It is a sad day in daytime. I am tired of Frons love of big boobs and bad acting. :annoyed: |
