So...does anybody out there still watch One Life to Live? I took a little break during the strike and I just went back, and...I have spoilery questions for the last, like, month, GAH,

NO, I refuse to accept it, my Nash is NOT DEAD. Right? 'Cause it's soap opera land and nobody who's dead is really dead. So I'll get my Nash-of-the-pretty-hair back soon, right? So. Not. Dead.

But when did he die? How did he die? Is that what made Jess turn into Tess-pretending-to-be-Jess? And how'd she get pregnant...wait, stupid question. Uh, whose baby is it?

And what's up with 1968. Does anybody know what's going on?


*sooooooooo confused*

Didn't Wikipedia say how Nash died? Something about a wall or a fire or something? *shrugs*

this kinda explains what's going on -- 1968 is time travel to pay homage to Clint's time travel to, what was it, the Old West? And Viki goes back to heaven. (Where apparently the old Jessica is going to play Megan Gordon, wtf.)

SIGH. One comment said this:

I began FAITHFULLY watching OLTL in 1972. It is the only soap I ever followed. I stopped watching it when they fired Forbes March.

I feel like saying the same damn thing. BAH.

Brb! ;)

Okay, I'm a little calmer now, and I've been to Wikipedia and it says that Nash got in a fight and fell through a skylight, and died slowly while everybody came to say goodbye. He died in Jessica's arms, just after she told him she was pregnant again. GAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH. I think I'm glad I wasn't watching.

WHY would the fire HIM? All that wasted potential, SIGH. They should've made him come back from the dead as an ev0l dude, like in Pet Sematary.

The time travel stuff...Viki hasn't died yet, but I'm kinda excited about more Heaven episodes. Agnes Nixon -- the creator -- is gonna make an appearance (as God?). Lol! And it might be cool if Erin Torpey comes back...she can't come back as Jessica 'cause Jess isn't dead, so she'd have to be Megan, wouldn't she? And the real Megan, she's moved on to be somebody big, hasn't she? I can't remember who played her.

Heh, you're getting into this. Want me to tape the Heaven eps for ya?

Megan was played by Jessica Tuck. She's working, but not really famous. (She was my favorite OLTL character, can ya tell?)

Who knows why they ever fire people on soaps? They're so weird.

I could tape it myself. I'm working very hard to not become involved, I'm just nostalgic for my old shows. (Gah, tell me when the Heaven stuff starts?)

I might be wrong, the Heaven stuff might've already happened and now Viki's back, all recovered? I dunno. But they're just now doing the time travel story, so if the two are connected then it hasn't happened yet.

I LOVED Megan, too. (And yes darlin', I already knew she was your favorite character!) Here's her Wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megan_Gordon#Megan

I was almost as mad when she died as I am about Nash. Are ALL writers evil? And what does that say about US, who re-write their stuff to suit ourselves?

Oh, did I mention that before? Once or twice? ;)

I think she wanted to leave, though, so that probably absolves the writers. I looked up Nash and there's conflicting reports -- the writers thought his story wasn't going anywhere (um, who's fault is that?) or they had to reallocate their cast money.
