Nelson Branco thinks so: SUDS REPORT
One Life To Live, A/ABC — Breaking news: Will Strasser quit today?
• Dark Friday? One Life superstar Robin Strasser (Dorian) is expected to quit her Emmy-winning role early this evening. In an updated hotline (212-414-5300) recording yesterday, Strasser informed her listeners that she will have a “big announcement” today around 5 p.m. From the sound of Strasser’s tone, it doesn’t sound promising, kids. However, Strasser gives fans hope by hinting that, “a very heroic figure on the horizon whom I love and respect” is on her side and asked her yesterday to delay her announcement for 24 hours to see what he could do.
SO, guess we have to wait and see! Interesting–I think that Daytime is just evaporating.

Just had a thought: Will PeePee and GiGi get PG at the same time on OLTL? OMG…it could totally happen!!!
I am so happy that everyone came through for DORIAN ON GH! I was little teary there. Well, not really but it was nice. Just too cute. I hope RS doesn’t leave.
GENERAL HOSPITAL: yepper, the editing was all over to cram in Friday’s stuff today! WOW…CarJax’s dresser is so ugly! What is it? And, Jax…er–Carly has NO BABY BUMP! LOL
FOR THE RECORD: Olivia/DOMte….Brother and Sister MAYBE—but Mother and Son? NO way. NOT BUYING IT. Love the actor but OY! He needed to be younger. He looks about 33 to me and she looks about 35. I know they are really 30 and 39 IRL but geesh.
Jake’s: It’s nice and fun..and is this really GH? LOL They have more people there than at most “big” weddings! LOL.
Diane’s comments on “knock off shoes” heh..
There’s Tyler Christopher’s friend in the laundry room with DOMte! He’s another mobular. Whatever. He needs a TAN! It’s RONNIE!
SONNY’S SECURITY IS SO BAD!!!!!!! LOL.
LOVED SCRUBBIES song!!
Hellooooo, Bruce Weitz! Good to see you. God, Steve Burton had NO lines in this scene. LOL.
FOR MEGAN WARD fans..this was tweeted today: Megan Ward (Kate) fans: You’ll really enjoy the fun feature we have in the new issue (dated July 27). Trust me: It’s hysterical! #GH @soapsindepthabc
Bradford and Kirsten WILL present together at the Daytime Emmys!
@CameronMathison is on Twitter now, btw.
Dare I hope to that GH is finally rising up from it’s soul-less dark Mob-filled depression and is actually trying to balance in some fun, love and friendship?!
Today had me smiling and laughing and actually enjoying GH! Robin and Patrick are great together. I just love them. Their karaoke was exactly like my friends and I have done…Bad pitch, cheesy…but so much personality and FUN!
I think that this is the very first PCPD scene that I completely enjoyed! Mac alert! Alexis asking (incredulously, as she should) if Jason was “helping her?” And Steve Burton finally seemed to be ENJOYING what he was doing today! And, don’t get me started with the Diane/Alexis vs. the ADA (who I also enjoyed, btw!).
Nik/Rebecca/Ethan was the only buzzkill today. And, the Spinelli/Maxie drama is being over-played.
But, all-in-all…I sensed a little hope here…
I pray that the two-week shut-down is to re-focus the show to give us some more of these POSITIVE moments.
Big Fat Yay to OLTL being on top of the ratings!!!! That show rocks big time. Loved that Dorian finally spoke up to Markko’s parents (who I really don’t like now) about losing their son, which did happen BTW. Noelle is the nicest person ever, made Vicki look bad, to remind them the dinner is for Langston and Markko, not Dorian. Awesome storyline.
OK, Stacy the Skeeze has got to go, and Rex can go with her. I wish that Sky popped Rex in the mouth due to his “high and mighty” speech. Now I am totally convinced that he is definitely related to LMP. I want Sky and Gigi together big time. Just love their scenes together. So realistic.
Hope that Robin Strasser doesn’t leave the show, just love her. She’s one of the reasons that I tune in everyday just to see what Dorian is up to, which is some kind of outlandish scheme!!!
Had GH on the TV, decided to do my Speech CEU courses instead. Sorry that I missed Alexis and Diane scenes. Heard some singing in the background but was totally into the SLP ideas for regulating conversations with children/adolescents with Asperger’s Syndrome. Some really great ideas.
Great idea, Jason the bore and LMP can ride off into the sunset, never to visit PC ever again. Heck they can have their very own show, that I will Not ever watch!!!!
I’ll sure watch!!!
I enjoyed Diane and Alexis today but the singing at Jakes nahhhhh maybe just liked looking at Coleman:)))
OLTL was so good today and Skylar should have kicked his butt for hitting him.I would love to se Gigi and Skylar togethor too.I have been watching OLTL ever since it came on the air would hate to see Dorian leave.
Also have yall checked and seen how many men are missing in the beginning of GH calender shot?3 I counted.
Alan,Ric and Justus
Just saw that BB is up in the ratings, wonder if that has anything to do with Rick Hearst joining the show??
Mamaspat – Was there any good singers at Jakes on today’s show?? Don’t know if I will catch it tonight or not, I am a bit behind on my Speech Credits, so I have to get current on my count this month.
Yay, you and I can start a Sky/Gigi “Let’s get ‘em together” fan club. Just love them.
Karen, please let us know what the deal is on Robin Strasser. Heard that she is planning to announce something big at 5:00 PM today. Don’t want to see her leave, period.
Robin and Patrick singing were the total highlight of the entire show. Patrick’s voice got somewhat deeper! I loved it!
I know I am in a huge minority, but I HATE the Dorian character. I am able to recognize that the character is not the actress though and I do believe that RS is a great actor.
As far as GH, today was okay. I loved the Alexis, Diane scenes. I had to rewind 3 times to catch what Alexis said to the ADA at the end though. I loved that Liz and Lucky were on, even if it meant seeing Ethan and Rebecca. I could have lived without the karaoke, but the cast integration was great for a change. GH sure does tend to drag things on though- can we expect Spin to sing anytime within the next month so this S/L can move on please?
I saw a bubble lamp today on HGTV!
Kate Fans: The special article in the new SID is a 4 page spread showing all of Megan Ward’s ad campaigns from the 80s when she was a working model. Most of which are from when she was working in Japan. Absolutely beautiful.
Ethan Fans: There is an eye opening article about his association with the Boom Kat Dance Theater in Santa Monica. He’s been doing musical theater for the past 3 years. Yes he dances, which he says is his passion, and sings. Here’s what kind of freaked me out. In a lot of the photos he has his hair pulled back into a pony tail and he’s been shot in profile…. he looks just like Ashton Kutcher! It gives me the heebee jeebees
Scott Clifton Fans: There is a great 4 page spread showing his home in NY now that he is on OLTL. It looks pretty cozy (and neat) for a bachelor LOL
I have to say that if you are going to spend your money on a magazine pick up SID. (I just let my subscription to SOD go after 20 years.) The new magazine has Carly and Claudia featured in the main picture with Solivia, JaSam, and JMB in smaller photos around the edge.
mdsbp I am with you about Dorian, I had a little time today &
turned OLTL on, and when she was going on & on I turned it off.
Everytime Nicholas & Rebecca come in a room, the whole room
changes for no good. Jakes had PEOPLE. Patrick & Robyn good, something different for a change.
I am sooooooo tired of the same stuff Jason in that room.
Someone getting him out, his stare. Oh brother
Diane & Alexis good with each other. Wow Max showed up.
No wonder everyone walks in and out of Sonny’s guards
never there. I have more security at my house than he does!
QueenPeng Robin and her hubby sang and was soso but I have never seen Jakes so full of folks.Hope Dorian stays she does act very well I think.
I know that I have no musical talent, so I guess I can’t tell a good singer from a bad one, but I thought that Robin and Patrick both had nice voices and were GREAT!! I SO ENJOYED their singing and their “moves” up there on stage–cute, adorable, it actually made me feel happy!!
I didn’t know CarJax are getting a new house, I watch every minute of every show, but, somehow, I must have missed something.
I thought the scene with Johnny in the laundromat was strange, kinda outta nowhere.
I agree that Olivia and Dante look the same age. And I thought that Carly did look PG today.
Only reason I bought the mad was for Megan ward article.After watching Megan on youtube in Dark Skies, I could see her knocking out Claudia, do yourselfs a favor go on the web and watch the fight, Olivia may have the Big Mouth BUT Kate is Connie from the hood. Also did’t Sonny Leave O for C ? I think the writers are have brain clouds, they forget the viewers NEVER forget. Also since I only catch up on GH on the “WUB”, I really enjoy watching the Skate story unfold, what great writing that was. also why does Carly Hate Kate?I watched Jason’s trial about the killing of Alcazar, Carly did not know Kate savied Jason’s ass, so why did JaCar dislike her? I feel so good that GH is in the rating tank, as a long timer viewer this show’s our disgust, Olivia with Sonny PLEASE, bring Kate back and see who he picks again, now that is a s/l to bring us back. I bet they (the writers) are pulling their hair over how many of us don’t like what they are giving us, ratings tell the story, and it’s not good……
AntJoan:
Jax decided to build a new house about a year ago. *lol*
I have to say – Carly may not look pregnant, but she is not as skinny as Clausia, so I am ok with no “bump”. Maybe because subconciously, I want Claudia to not be pregnant.
I sure hope Gigi and Pee Pee are not both pregnant at the same time, altho I again can see ithappening and can see Pee Pee tormenting Gigi throughout the 9 months. A Or, even again, the ole switcheroo (I still think that is what will happen with Claudia and Carly on GH).
