OLTL—Fri–2/11—A blast from the past–1995


Friday's encore episode continues to fuel speculation that Roger Howarth may be coming back to the story in some capacity.  Personally, if he has to come back, I'm hoping he is Todd Manning's long-lost twin—that maybe Todd's mother gave Todd to the Mannings and the other twin to another couple.  If they replace Trevor St. John, that would be a huge disappointment for some of us, unless it is something he really wants; then, what can you do but accept it.

If it's only about the money—OLTL should cough it up, because I love his acting style.  He is smart and naturally funny and his timing is always right on.  I was never that enamoured with Howarth.  To me he was always one dimensional—angry most of the time.  He showed some emotion with his niece and nephew (Tina's children), but could barely muster any affection toward his adult co-actors.  He left OLTL, at least once, maybe twice, and in his last contract with them, (I read) he specifically demanded NO LOVE SCENES.  He eventually warmed up to Blair, but even their bedroom scenes were awkward.  Anyway....

Everyone looked so young and beautiful in the episode.  Bo was particularly handsome and thinner.  LOL.  Viki looked a lot younger, but Dorian has really held a tight grip on her good looks.  Alex was considerably younger and thinner.  And good 'ol Asa—what a treat to see him again.
