TeeVee329 August 3, 2019 Share August 3, 2019 I just watched Mark Lawson's (Brody Lovett) second set of scenes on "General Hospital" and he really is so charming as Dustin. It's a little hard to get invested given it's, you know, "General Hospital" and I can't imagine Dustin won't go under the bus for some mob flunky or crappy Faison kid or whenever they bring back Dante, but I'm gonna make an effort to keep up with his scenes. He also gave this great interview to Soap Central. While I highly doubt the show will explore this dichotomy, I like what he says about Dustin both being a teacher, but also experiencing the nighttime in Port Charles as a rideshare driver: https://www.soapcentral.com/gh/news/2019/0726-mark_lawson_interview.php 1 Link to comment
dubbel zout August 3, 2019 Share August 3, 2019 Thanks for posting that interview, @TeeVee329. It is nice. I laughed when he said he thought Dustin had three novels shoved into a drawer. When I was on jury duty ages ago, everyone was writing a book. Then about 15 years after that, everyone was writing a screenplay. Link to comment

TeeVee329 August 30, 2019 Share August 30, 2019 It feels like it's been a zillion years since her casting came out, but Robin Strasser (Hurricane Dorian Lord) finally shows up on "Days of our Lives" on Monday. She is, indeed, stepping in for Louise Sorel as Vivian Alamain. EW has a first look (at the un-Vivian, not-good red wig they stuck on her): https://ew.com/tv/2019/08/29/days-of-our-lives-vivian-robin-strasser-first-look/ Link to comment
Panopticon September 1, 2019 Share September 1, 2019 That wig gives me flashbacks to the Michelle Obama wig Dorian wore at the start of the online version. Of course, the Michelle wig was deliberately awful so Dorian could rip it off in a huff upon falling from political grace. Link to comment
jsbt September 3, 2019 Share September 3, 2019 Perhaps in trying to honor Louise Sorel (a personal friend IIRC), Robin is actually changing up her performance on DAYS quite a bit and not going to 11 much as Vivian so far. I'm surprised and pleased. I've always loved Robin but I've always said she took it to the edge too often on OLTL in her stint from '03-onward, possibly out of trauma over her being ousted by JFP. 1 Link to comment
Grinaldi September 4, 2019 Share September 4, 2019 I love her, too, but Robin doesn't seem the most chill person IRL and I think that has gotten more true as she has gotten older (she remains the only person who has ever blocked me on Twitter, for example, due to a disagreement about Designing Women). But I'm excited to see what she does with Vivian. And, hey all. It's been a long, long time since I've seen y'all or had the heart to talk OLTL but it's so great to see this community continuing on long after TWoP and OLTL have gone away. 2 Link to comment
Panopticon September 5, 2019 Share September 5, 2019 I read an interview with RS in which she said she hadn’t done research for Vivian, wouldn’t try to mimic LS, etc. Typical things most actors would say in that situation. But it seems to me that RS is making a LOT of the same choices I would have expected LS to make. Mind meld between old friends perhaps? That said, on today’s episode VivianDorian whipped out an overly dramatic, overly French pronunciation of “Deveraux” and I had a few feelings. Link to comment

Jalyn September 17, 2019 Share September 17, 2019 I'm not actually watching GH, but I have to laugh that they are finally going with the basic storyline that I wanted for the Two Todds story on OLTL. "Wait, there's a chance that I'm NOT the person that did all of those heinous things? He's definitely the real Todd." The fact that they are doing it with RoHo after giving him an even more ridiculously awful character to play means that if the actual viewers weren't insisting that it sucks (and, you know, the rest of the show being GH), I'd consider watching it.

Tuc Watkins (Ex-OLTL and Desperate Housewives) is set for a season-long guest-star arc on the second season of Showtime’s 1980’s Wall Street comedy Black Monday, which stars and is executive produced by Don Cheadle. In it, Watkins will take on the role of Congressman Harris, who said to be “a Republican and leader of the Moral Majority.” According to Deadline who broke the casting news, “Black Monday takes viewers back to October 19, 1987 dubbed Black Monday. t’s the fictional story of how a group of outsiders took on the blueblood, old-boys club of Wall Street and ended up crashing the world’s largest financial system, a Andrew Rannells, Regina Hall and Paul Scheer also star in the series. This marks the return of Watkins to the premium cable network where he last played the role of Malcolm Laffley on Beggars and Choosers. In addition, Tuc has been working on the upcoming Netflix film adaptation of Boys in the Band from Ryan Murphy. Tuc appeared in the that show on Broadway. The 10-episode upcoming season of Black Monday will bow next year. Link to comment
TeeVee329 September 24, 2019 Share September 24, 2019 (edited) He was hiding under a bushy beard, but I stll spotted Josh Kelly (Cutter Wentworth) on the new NBC show "Bluff CIty Law". Not sure if he's a regular (and I'm not sticking around to find out - I tend to check out fall pilots, but this one's not really my bag), but given he's the ex-husband of the main character who's clearly still got a torch for her, he'll likely be heavily recurring at minimum.

Eve!” I haven’t watched all the episodes, but I think that at least he’s refrained from Gabi/Lola jokes.

It's at least more creative than "Don't I know you from somewhere?" or "You remind me of my niece" or something like that. It's too bad the Strass isn't hanging around because Vivian and my girl Gabi squaring off has been super fun. For example... Edited September 28, 2019 by TeeVee329 1 Link to comment

Dandesun November 6, 2019 Share November 6, 2019 So how many stories about Scott either wetting or shitting himself ARE there because it seems like every time they get together on Fallon there's a story to tell. This time there were two! Although Chris realizing what Scott was about to reveal might be one of the best reactions EVER. Also, the idea of Scott wanting to do something involving homicides/forensics was like 'DUHH!! He was a police officer on OLTL!' 2 Link to comment

It did kinda sound like he was trying to mention he had been on a "Law & Order", but it wasn't super audible. In related news, I am very excited for "Knives Out". Rian Johnson's "Brick" is one of my favorites so him doing a murder mystery with Bro Evans and the rest of that star-studded cast is right up my alley.

TeeVee329 November 12, 2019 Share November 12, 2019 (edited) As I already gushed in the GH thread, I am thrilled by this news. I love Setton (even before OLTL, she was my favorite of Blair's bitches on "Gossip Girl"), I loved Setton as Kim, I'm glad she's back after kinda disappearing, and casting her as Brook is so smart, both in that I can see Setton filling those shoes and that they recast a legacy character versus making her play some nobody. ETA...what would we think about Setton's Brook seducing Mark Lawson's Dustin away from stupid Lulu? I can't recall them ever sharing a scene on OLTL, but I could see it being very hot.

TeeVee329 December 31, 2019 Share December 31, 2019 (edited) So Scott Evans' (Oliver Fish) installment of Hulu's horror anthology series "Into The Dark" is now streaming and I have some thoughts on "Midnight Kiss": First, spoiler-free: it's pretty standard slasher flick fare, so if that's your jam, I'd recommend cheking it out. It is kinda fun seeing the classic tropes - the group of friends, the remote location where nobody can get a phone signal, the person who gets killed early on, but whose absence is plausibly explained, etc. - play out with 90% LGTBQ characters. Things get wobbly in the third act with a weird twist and the killer's motive, but overall, it's a fun low-budget slasher. Now, some spoilery thoughts: Spoiler I had guessed that Scott might be playing the "final girl", but it's Augustus Prew - who co-starred with Scott in his indie movie "Sell By" earlier this year - who is and he is particuarly great throughout. Scott is playing kinda a different character for him, this control-y, Type-A personality who has a tangled, almost toxic history with Prew's character. These two have great chemistry together, which makes me even more curious to check out "Sell By" and see it set in a different genre. Also, Scott's butt is like the only one you don't see lol, though that kinds fits the character. Overall, it was fun, as a fan, to see Scott in such a lead role. And that's that on that!

TeeVee329 January 9, 2020 Share January 9, 2020 (edited) So Ron tweeted something verrry interesting today about a OLTL spin-off for SoapNet he pitched back in 2008: OMG, as someone who also loved "Port Charles" at points, I feel like I would have been very here for this, I'm presuming, alt-continuity sister show. And that was right before "True Blood" and "The Vampire Diaries" hit big on TV, people probably would have checked it out. But of course, couldn't have a soapy show on SoapNet, and certainly not one spun off from not "General Hospital". Oh well, still a fun thought experiment. ETA...OMG now I'm imagining newbie Fish (he first showed up on OLTL in 2008) as the bumbling cop who can't get anyone to believe him about the vampires!

I freely admit to being judgy about names (I'm still not over Ingo Rademacher naming one of his kids Peanut), so I'm wondering if I'm blinded by affection here, because I think Phoenix is actually kind of cool. Finn, not so much, but maybe they wanted the kid to have a more "normal" alternative. ETA: @TeeVee329 you mentioning Sierra Rose made me realize that it's almost ten years since she was born!
