Guiding Light!

[goofinoff]

The story lines sound great but I hate the new format! A friend of mine, who gets really motion sick, was telling me today that she can't watch it anymore. It makes her dizzy!!

 

[december]

I'm too busy noticing differences. I know it shouldn't matter, but when you've been seeing Alan's office the way it was for 30 yrs, it is hard to readjust to the "new" sets. My sister and I are spending too much time going-there was no staircase there, the desk was on the other side, etc.

I'm still hoping tha although Dinah is playing Alan, the "real" Phillip is texting Beth and Lizzie. Rumor is they have sent out a casting call for a major male role since Gus is leaving. If Grant won't come back, they need to recast the role!


3/17: Frank's world is turned upside when he is suspended from the force. What - or who - is behind the move?

3/17: Apparently Frank flirted with someone at a crime scene and it's cost him his badge. Is Alan behind all of this?

3/18: Dinah and Bill set a trap for Alan. Is it all about Lizzie or is there more to the feud?

3/19: Reva and Olivia forge a tentative friendship. What causes the change of heart (pardon the pun).

3/19: Coop gets some good news on the book front.

3/19: Frank and Buzz spurn Harley's attempts to reconcile. Will they ever forgive her? Should they?

3/19: Cassie has a proposition for Cyrus. But what is it?

3/19: Reva and Jeffrey celebrate her good news. What is it?

3/20: GL is pre-empted to due the NCAA Tournament.

Ashlee assures Coop she'll support him during whatever Blake has in store for him. But will the changes in their lives bring them closer together or farther apart?

Cyrus moves in with Harley. How do her kids react? And Rick?

Harley and Marina face off over Cyrus. Will they be able to overcome this obstacle and remain close?

I'm too busy noticing differences. I know it shouldn't matter, but when you've been seeing Alan's office the way it was for 30 yrs, it is hard to readjust to the "new" sets. My sister and I are spending too much time going-there was no staircase there, the desk was on the other side, etc.

Me too especially Cross Creek - looks like a dump. I really hope this doesn't last.

I agree it's time for Phillip to come back.

Did Martha say they are recasting her? Were could we write to get her back?

 

[december]

Yes, ATWT is recasting Lily. Martha said to write to P&G, but I don't think she ever gave a full address. She thought they were negotiating when her manager found out about the casting call. She seemed really hurt. I put a link to the chat transcript on the ATWT thread. I am so upset about this.

Cassie's farm is horrible, but Cross Creek bothers me more. It has been a part of the show for so long. I was watching it with my sister the first time we saw the outside, and she actually yelled out "don't tell me that's Cross Creek!". I miss the big open living room-that little side room bothers me for some reason!

 

[goofinoff]

I agree! This whole set change thing really bugs me too! I hate when they show Cassie's house from the outside. Ummmm.....doesn't Josh own a CONSTRUCTION COMPANY?? Couldn't he fix it up a little? And Cross Creek is a joke! This is supposed to be a cabin that they moved from Tulsa. Doesn't look like much of a cabin to me.

Do you think that we the fans could write into the show? I wonder if it would do any good.

 

[december]

I guess I was right......


Mallet is pulled into a kiss by Marina

Ava takes great delight in telling Lizzie that she and Bill slept together

-Olivia plans a quick wedding for her and Gus; Josh refused to do the ceremony since it's not "real", so Jeffrey says he will perform the nuptials.
-Gus says no to the wedding.
-Jeffrey sees how distraught Olivia is and says he will marry her. He says Reva will understand, since Olivia is dying.
-Doris performs the ceremony. Emma and Ava are there.
-Olivia collapses and is rushed to the hospital, where she begs to see Gus one last time.
-Jeff calls Alan and Alan tries to find Gus.


***How sad will it be if Gus was rushing to the hospital to see Olivia and that is why he wrecks? This is going to be a tearjerker for sure.

OMG!!! I am gonna need a whole box of tissues! Just in time for my PMS!!! Great!

 

[TigerKat]

Stocking up on tissues now......this is so sad. The fact that he's leaving is enough to make me cry.

 

[december]

I cried just reading the spoilers! We are moving Sat, and dh really thinks I won't need internet at the new place. OK-so where am I going to watch all this. MUST HAVE INTERNET!

 

[Zandy595]

Oh man, I better watch this when no one is home. I don't want to see Gus die/RPG leave the show.


Is GL on today?

 

[december]

As far as I know it is.

 

[december]

I just blubbered through today's show. I hope I can watch these alone next week, or my family will think I'm insane.

I loved the Buzz/Olivia kiss. I always liked them together.

I love Alan being brought to his knees.

I love Lizzy and Bill.

I even liked Nat and Rafe today.

This is going to be so sad!

 

[Jennifer S]

I was thinking the same thing. I can barely stand to look at Gus knowing what;s coming. I am really going to miss him. I really wish Olivia was the one to go and not Gus.

 

[Zandy595]

I totally agree!

 

[december]

just watched-this is really tearing me up. The scenes with Harley (TPTB really screwed them!) and Alan were killers! Then the scenes woven around him riding the bike. Then wheeling him in right in front of Olivia. Breaking my heart (and I'm moving tomorrow and need to be packing!)

 

[Lowillian]

I was able to catch the last half of the show today. I had read the spoilers on the thread and I knew what was going on. I thought the scene with Gus on the bike looked ridiculous. It just didn't look believeable. I also do not like the new production style!
