This show sucks male genitilia, and it's my favorite even! I remember when it was romantically cavalier, telling stories that were at times surreal, fun, and innovative; Heaven, Old West 1888, and Eterna for starters. Now it panders big time with the body obsessed nimrods like Dr. Troy McIver, Jennifer Rappaport, and Rex Balsom. The only reason I'll accept the ladder is because Rex is Roxy's son, and Roxy is played by the awesomely talented Ilene Kristen. Now, they have this pathetic psychopath going after random girls, and one or two major characters, one being Gabrielle Medina! What!? Are they high? Fiona Hutchison is a great actress, and the character is redolant of OLTL's glory days, and now it's one more ray of light squelched from this already debauchhed sudser of "trite". They need to rethink this show and it's appeal, because right now it stinks. Nice abs isn't enough, keep Ty Tread"away", and on that miserable plastic talk show. Then return some of the staple heros and heroines, Max, Cord, Andie...maybe Patrick and Marty...go back deeper, and bring back some Woleks! I don't want to know the Rappaports, or the Colsons, or the other people...come on and restore this show!

Okay I feel a need to defend OLTL, though it does have many faults, many of which you didn't mention!
Okay, highpoints:
The Current Cast Of Characters -
Excellent. The actors on the show are great, and the set of characters work well for me.
Blair/Dorian/Walker/Kelly(Tracy not Heather) - Great little storyline they have going. Oh and I forgot to mention David Vikers. All great actors as well.
Lindsay/Troy/Nora/Bo/Gaby - Again. Great. Catherine Hickland deserves an Emmy for her potrayal of Lindsay, as does Ty. He's great. Its very difficult playing a crazy person, and he pulls it off so well they keep asking him back.
VIki/Natalie/Jessica/Joey/John - Erika Slezak is very talented, especially with the current storyline with Dorian. The new Jessica has made the role more than he own, and Melissa Archer is doing great as Natalie. I hate they fired Joey and Flash, because they were both pretty good I thought. I don't know what happened. Michael Easton is fitting in nicely as John and I hope he stays a long time.
Music Box Killings - I think it sucks. Its too boring for me. They aren't killing anyone you care about so whats the point? It seems to be going nowhere. I hear Flash and Gaby die. I hope not, but they aren't doing much lately.
Recasts - I think OLTL has far to many recasts, though they work well most of the time. Tracy Melchoir was a perfect fit for Kelly, only the writers suck for the character at the moment, so they recast her with that snarling pig Heather Tom. Sorry, but Heather couldn't be more wrong for the role and I hope she is fired very fast. She is so not Kelly. The way they fired Tracy is jsut hateful.
Antonio - I hate him so much. He overacts, and is overall very annoying. Go away! I hope to go he doesn't resign next year.
Rex/Jen - I love Rex, but Jen sucks. She needs to be killed by that Music Box Killer. She is boring and sucks. The writers have written her into a deep hole. They need to figure out what to do with her. As for Rex, they need to make him gay already. When he first came to the show he was supposed to be, but they thought it was too hot for tv. I know we have Bianca on AMC, but a gay character thats a guy is still kinda shocking.
The loss of Keri - How sad. She was great. They shouldn;t have made her crazy, and ran her off the show. She was a talent who should have stayed.
RJ/Evangeline - They need a big storylien. Eveangeline is excellent, and needs to mix witht he main cast more. Maybe get with Antonio? Hmm...

i think that they should put tracy back as kelly and if anybody payed attention to one of the shows this past week they would have figured out who the killer is
