Clint

I don't like the new Clint storyline,he is so mean/evil,Protecting the Family, He is plotting aganist his Brother (BO) Inez is so not nice,trying to do what Clint ask her to do,Clint should look in a mirror.

Miss the old Clint

I hate what they are doing to Clint. I remember the character when he was the good guy and I am repulsed by the writers and other powers that be who want to destroy what is left of the character. It is so sad. Maybe they should have killed the character of Clint off like they did with Asa.

disagree

with many of the responses I have read. I totally dislike Inez and her family. Don't want to see Starr and James together--he's too young (wish Cole was coming back). Hate all the new characters and feel the regulars are being cheated out of air time. Clint is over the top and totally unbelievable. Can't wait for David Vickers to return--the show desperately needs some humor. I would love more Todd and Tea and I like Natalie and John and would like to see the silly DNA storyline come to an end. Marty is over the top so I'm guessing the actress is leaving? I love Ted King and can't wait to see him. Don't like what they've done with Matthew. Too many negative things going on right now and not enough character interaction, good solid story lines and too many ridiculous story lines I don't care about therefore I am ff through a lot of the show. And oh, yes, Gigi and Cristian have absolutely no chemistry and her sudden artistic leanings are from no where. Improve the writing.

Some Issues Too Long

Clint has too much power, and I don't like what is being done to Bo and Nora; The issues with Natalie and Jessica and their unborn babies and baby fathers, how long is that suppose to go on. If you let things go on too long, it becomes a turn-off with soap operas. I am tired of looking at Ford (the father) too. I like one life to live, I've watched it for a while. but I am sick of looking at Clint and his dirty deeds. Also, I don't like what is being done with Marty.

Some Good Some Bad

I love it that they kept Tea with Todd on the show and Natalie needs to be with Brody,John with Blair,They screwed up when the took Nash aka Forbes March away from Jessica.Kim needs to come back for Clint.Put Echo and Charlie together.And get another Ben Davidson back for Viki.Bo and Nora Deserve each other quit messing that.Rex I could care less about up.and the young group is immateriel.there should be numbers of changes wit few solid hookups.

I hate the storylines

I don't like any of the storylines right now. How can Clint and Matthew turn so nasty so fast? I love Bo and Nora together and don't like that they are making Bo look like a fool. I also don't like all the lies. It's time they straighten them out. My bet is that Natalie's baby is John's.

My View of OLTL

I've never liked Natalie and now that she is receiving more airtime than usual, OLTL is unbearable. Natalie harangued Marty while she was pregnant with John's child by telling her that John was only with her because of the baby, told John about the pregnancy before Marty could and now she has the gall to tell Marty that she was a lousy mother to Cole! As I recall, Marty and Cole covered for Natalie when she assaulted Mitch Lawrence. Marty has lost both her unborn child, her son, visitation with Hope and now Natalie is parading around Llanview pregnant and in a relationship with John. That is more than enough to put anyone on edge. I hope that the baby is Brody's and that John realizes Natalie has been lying to him the entire time. Natalie has insinuated herself into every relationship John has had (Evangeline/Marty/Blair) as though she is the only women entitled to him. John and Natalie have no chemistry and McBain looks bored to be with her. Also, get rid of Gigi and Rex.
—Guest Traci

:-))

I am not a fan of Natalie at all. I can't stand to see her and John together. She wrecked what John and Marty had.. I bet you if Marty wanted John back then John will run right back to her. Just like he left Blair for Marty

owl

Dump the echo story line. have natalies baby be johns and jessicas be brodys. i don't expect to live happily ever after since this is a soap but these stories are drug out too long.
—Guest myla

current story line

OLTL have sunk to a new low. To much violence with the boys Dad, the Rex and Charlie story line and Clint, he can never compare to Asa. I just dont watch it anymore.

david

the writers did not ruin the David story-Tuc Watkins had to leave for Desperate Housewives he was under contract to. writers had nothing to do with that.
—altomrod

Clint

I don't like Clint now, he has gone to far, let him and Inez have some happiness, also Natalie and John.
—Guest Kay

clint and natalie

Jerry Ver Dorn is ok,but Clint is not,bring back the old Clint persona.Clint Ritchie is turning in his grave to avoid seeing this incarnation.JUST GET RID OF NATALIE,I fast foward through these two.

Slow Moving

I have been watching soaps for years.One life to live on and off almost from the beginning. I hope it stays on the air,being the last soap filmed in New York. My problem with the soap is the stories move so slowly thay just never end.Clint does one bad thing after another and is just not caught. His character is getting more evil with each day and the layers of evil doing is growing like a mountain. It is time he gets his,along with Rex for his lie. I am so glad you hired Kim Zimmer for the role of Echo. She is one great actress maybe the best on the soaps. I'm also very fond of Robin Strasser. She adds a new demension to the show. I enjoy watching the show, but please speed it up.It took way over a year to end the story of Starr and her baby.It was a great story but it became sadder and sadder. Thank you for giving the viewer a great show and I will keep on being a loyal viewer.
