In this week's Reflections by Jill:
"Not only do I object to Gigi spending all her time with Schuyler when she's supposed to be "away to think about her life", but in the middle of this mess is a fourth element that I think is being pushed aside and that is Shane. This kid has been through a lot between growing up not knowing his father, having a life threatening illness and going through the ups and downs of his parents' mess of a relationship. Now he has to deal with the knowledge of who his grandfather is. How much is an eleven-year old kid supposed to be expected to swallow? And he's such a smart kid that he knows exactly what is going on and asks all the right questions, which only makes his parents look more inept."

I am not at all happy with the Gigi/Rex/Schuyler storyline!

I hate Gigi and Schuyler together and feel sorry for Shane having such dysfunctional parents. I hope Rex gets full custody of Shane. Did you see the terrible acting Rex did when he walked in on them? I don’t know who jerks around or makes more weird facial expressions – Rex or Schuyler (Shoe-ler)!
Sorry, I disagree. I like Sky & Gigi together alot more then Gigi with Rex.. I watch/record every day just to see Sky & Gigi!
I look forward to Stacy going away. I really don’t know who I want Gigi to end up with. I like both Rex and Sky….Tough choice for her I think. Can’t wait for the truth to come out about the baby and as far as I’m concerned Mitch needs to go away again and this time for good.
i really like gigi and sky together. They look really cute and sky pays more attention to gigi then rex does. At first i liked gigi with rex but now i see that sky is way better to her. and as far and stacy and mitch … i wish they both would just leave and take kim with them!
Gigi & Sky–like it–cool, but actually don’t mind Gigi with Rex either.
Stacy going away SUCKS! Mitch i wish would go away! although i still like him alot better than Spencer Truman
Kim is awsome! We may not being seeing the blonde bombshell Stacy much longer–but at least we’ll have the raven goddess!! =D
What happened to Carlotta & Addie???
Roxy cracks me up!!
I’m afraid that Addie is going to be murdered. That’s just my guess, not a spoiler, but the magazines are saying that Kelly, Adrianna, and Cassie are coming back to help Dorian through a family emergency.
I hope they keep Adrianna (Bitchy Bangs) around. that’s the only reason I could tolerate this sufferable Gigi/Rex/Schuyler sroty any longer. Hopefully Mitch will kill thiem all!
I don’t like either Rex or Gigi and I wish they would find someone decent for Sky, I can’t imagine 2 guys fighting over her, and Sky (even though he has a “past”) is a decent guy. I’ll be really glad when this ridiculous story line involving Stacy is over, I hate to see her killed off, I think she could be redeemable but am very glad the SL is coming to an end.
I find that Gigi acted impulsively. She traded a lifelong courtship and love for someone who she doesn’t even know. On top of which he betrayed her because he knows stacy’s baby is not Rex’s child and he had an opportunity to tell long before this rebound affair. She will find out and then where will she be? She will have no one. I just wish she will admit she was confused and on the rebound and go back to Rex.!!!!
Please end this Gigi, Rex, Stacy, Schuyler mess! I am beginning to hate the show.
I find myself changing channels when Gigi, Rex, Stacy and Schuyler are on.
i think that like guiding light and as the world turns oltl will cancelled and like within the next year and a half if not b4
then because how else do you explain the oltl writers jerking us oltl fans around with all these stupid storylines going in all directions c’mon surely the writers aren’t that feakin idiotic they are just messing with the storylines in an effort to boost ratings they brung back mitch lawrence who’s next troy/collin macgyver i know the world has evil in it and yes i think u need to add a touch of bad guy too make the show balanced out man i wish they’d ease back a little on the whole evil/bad guy/push/pull storylines push/pull meaning they keep pushing u one way with a storyline and just when think you know whats gonna happen in a storyline they pull you in another direction with something stupid i mean c’mon give us friggin break aready.
I agree with #9. I hate this story line and find that I’m losing interest in oltl. Why are they prolonging the stacy/gigi/rex story line so long, when they seem to wrap up many other story lines faster.
I started watching regularly because of this stacy/gigi fiasco with the blood, but it has been almost a year and still no end to the nonsense. I hope the writers stop this soon. I used to want gigi to go back to Rex during the story with the blood, but now I don’t really care who ends up with what. Rex almost deserves Stacy. I record the show so that I can scroll past the gigi/stacy/rex/schyler story line, but now the whole story is becoming comedic.
On top of these highly messy script, I have to add the Gigi and Schulyre have no chemistry and Gigi looks like she rather be with a frog when she is with him.
This Mitch thing has no path to go except for a town stoning him. I do unfortuately thing this story is coming to a close because they spend more time beefing up All my children. I hope it doesn’t and beats the odds I can’t handle another cheap reality show.
I personaly don’t like Rex with Gigi so anyone else is Great by me even Stacy.But I wish Lindsay Rappaport was with Rex the suit each other fine.Rex is a egotist and all about himself he doesn’t deserve a decent woman like Gigi.
I just read about Melissa Gallo coming back as Adrianna … and I love it. In my opinion, Rex never belonged with Gigi and he should have stayed with Adrianna. They were a great couple with a lot of chemistry. I hope Melissa sticks around as Adrianna and gets back together with Rex.
Adriana will be on for about 4 days .I don’t know about Cassie and Keven, but Kelly is on contract. I haven’t a clue if Zane is coming.This s/l has to do with Kelly.Hopefully the Stacy s/l will be done by then The baby will be with Oliver&Kyle and Stacy will be gone forever.Unless years from now Stacy is recast after we forget the Damage Crysal did. !
Kim is staying. They are going to redeem her. Clint is going to help her change. Stacy kicking her out when Rex moves in to protect her from Mitch will help her realize Stacy couldn’t care less about her.Amandas staying because she can act!
Cory, all the S/l s have something to do with Mitch.Hes harmed all these people sense before he raped Viki. So it will be nice to see him finelly being brought down by them along with Stacy during Feb sweeps.Schuyler prounced Skyler in North America but Sho
eler in the Netherlands will be hurt when Gigi finds out he didnt tell her the baby wasn’t Rexs She’ll go back to That dimwit Rex, I can’t see Gigi with a Doctor anyway.
I don’t care much for the Gigi Schuyler thing. But I would rather them get rid of Natalie she has really served no purpose. The reason she doesn’t work with the men they cast her with is because she has no chemistry with any of them. They think that attaching her with John again will work, what about Marty. I don’t want to see her try to have a relationship with anyone else, I’d rather her be gone. Every storyline she’s in someone no longer has a job. Heck even John was gone after being involved in a storyline with Natalie. Please enough already, let Natalie be gone.
I think it was a BIG mistake to put Schylar in the middle, of Gigi and Rex.
( the odd name couple, but come on!)
There are alot of Schuylers(Skyler) in Canada, male and female. OLTL isn’t the first soap. Edge of Night had one too.But I came on to say OLTL was great today.And I’m glad to hear that OLTL is up for a glaad award. So the VEIW And Joy for her show
I can’t stand Kim or Stacey.With Mitch on again maybe he can make them disappear.PLEASE!!!!Why mess with Charlie and Vicki.For God’s sake let them at least be happy.They are a great couple.We need at least one solid couple on the show.This Clint story line is terrible. Kim looks younger than his daughters!Thank TPTB that Tuc is back. David Vickers is one of my favorite people on the show.I can’t stand Dorian anymore either.She is a pathetic wanna be of Vicki.I hope that the story line improves in the near future.
Umm…I think Kim & Stacy should stay–they should make Mitch disappear!! Definitley
I agree with you Patricia, Kim can be manipulative, but atleast she’s much smarter than that scank Stacey, but you know what, the dumb blonde is leaving in february, Good Ridence!!! and the next bimbo to exit should be Blair!
Blond Bombshell is more like it—not dumb blonde!
Thats what Stacy is!
Dumb blonde..yes!!!!! BIG TIME!
A blonde bombshell would be Lindsay, or Jen Rappaport, Stacey looks very fake to me, she doesn’t have nice features, not EVERYONE’s opinion, okkkkkk??!!!
I hate GiGi and Skyler together..I change the channel when they are on.. The writting STINKS!!!
I’m so sick of Stacey, she is sickening to watch, what a pathelogical liar she is! Every word she utters is a stinking lie! kim always has to think for her, can’t wait till the dumb blond is GONE!!!!!!
Sweet…or should I say Sour or Bitter instead. I agree about Lindsay & Jen, but so is Stacy. I’m just saying my opinion to–that she is naturally beautiful.
Melina–that liar makes you VERY angry! So Stacy (Crystal Hunt) is obviously excellent in what she does…
Stacey Morasco is a damn liar, and yes everyone hates her, she’s a pathetic loser who can’t let good enough alone, she’s leaving soon, and I’ll think of you when she goes down marky boy, hihihih, oh and…soap operas are a girl thing, what r u doing here dude?!!! Something tells me you’re another Rex Balsom..lol
Melina LOL, I couldn’t agree with you more, well said sister!
Melina,
LOL, Maybe you’re jealous of how beautiful Crystal Hunt is. I’m sure you are–you’re very bitter. When Stacy does go down, I’ll be thinking about how Crystal will be moving on to another role, and how you will still just be….bitter.
As far as soaps being a “girl thing” that’s crap. Unlike you, I am very secure with myself. Can you say the same? By the way, stereotypes are a form of closed-mindedness–dude. But you and your “sister” Lisa, and I’m sure she is your sister, can enjoy watching Kim, since she is staying
Melina, I couldn’t contain myself after reading your message, LOL, maybe marky boy is easy to screw with like rex is, or maybe he’s like Oliver and Kyle since he watches soap operas, maybe he even watches girly shows like desperate housewives and sex and the city..lol
LOL Sweetie, you’re so funny!!
yeah, I bet he does, anyway, who cares about marky boy, we’re here to discuss OLTL, aren’t we?!!
I wanted to comment about Kim, although she’s not perfect, then again, who isn’t for that matter, but atleast she knows how to get what she wants in a more classy fashion, Clint as a sugar daddy, and mostly she doesn’t get herself pregnant to trap a guy who doesn’t give a damn about her, like that loser Stacey with her crocked smile, and pointy nose, whoever finds that skank pretty needs their eyes examined!!! Kim is much smarter, she doesn’t bug me, smile!
1 Melina & Sweet are the same.
2. Jealously is a bad thing.
3. I got way under your skin. Cool
4. Umm. Stacy is hot.
5. you only say u like Kim b/c she is staying.
6.
marky boy is so sad!!! what a condesending fool he is, I have to laugh and hard that is, who knows if he’s not really a girl turned into a guy, did you read what he said about Starr Melina? He’s like, this is marky boy, ” OMG…I soooooo like Starr”….Ha ha ha, if that doesn’t sound like a girl, i don’t know what does! Hey Girls, I think it is WE, who got under HIS skin..lol, get off the soaps dude, this is girl stuff, why don’t you try dating for a change
mark…listen up boy cause I’m only gonna tell you once!
1- Get over yourself, you sound so conceited and immature, not interested in interacting with you, not even here, so stop talking to us.
2- Everyone sees us in a different light, just because we don’t like someone doesn’t mean we’re jealous, only a girl would say something like that, you know! We’re all entitled to our opinion, simple as that.
3- You must be filled with jealousy to think someone else is, there is a big difference between jealousy and dislike.
4- Now run along, and find something else to occupy your thoughts.
And for your info, Lisa is not my sister, she used that term in a figure of speech, I beleive I saw you saying that yourself to someone else, Lisa is a friend I made on here.
I’m gonna direct this to the 1 person -Sweet, Melina, Lisa (Melina & Lisa sure do talk the same-Dude).
You must be brand new to this site-otherwise you would have known there are 2 marks-Mark & Mark R. (which is why I put the R. after mine). He actually despises Stacy. So you’re argument above under “Lisa” has nothing to do with me.
Also, I guess you don’t date–since that was your argument if you comment on this site. I manage to comment, have a social life, work a full time job & pay my own bills. So how do you figure.
LOL I can go on & on-but, like you, i’m done. This has gotten boring. I’m just gonna start commenting on another section of the site.
I didn’t realize I had the wrong person, my apologies to you Mark R!
No problem Sweet. No need to apologize, I understand.
