Title: Balsco, Balsco, Balsco


Cheryl - May 6, 2008 04:12 PM (GMT)
I have never been an OLTL watcher. Never. But I will admit that I know what is going on because I'm one of those people who just leaves the television on for background noise.

But when Farah Fath joined OLTL I started paying more attention because I knew TPTB intended to write her into a story with John Paul Lavoisier. I watched because I was skeptical. Usually when someone is brought in to be paired with another from the get go, it doesn't really work. But I had seen enough of JPL to know he was just as quirky as Farah.

I wasn't shocked that they had chemistry together. But I am shocked that they have SMOKIN' HOT chemistry together. The cliffhanger from last Friday shocked me to pieces. I don't think I've ever seen JPL play anything serious in his life and when the scene cut to black I found myself with my jaw dropped open. Just DAMN.

So I'm coming out of the closet as a big time Balsco fan. Who's with me? lol

Ok I confess I do think they have amazing chemistry...but I refuse to be sucked in by another soap couple.....no lines at SSW...no mailings...none of that stuff, but I will enjoy watching it unfold on my screen.....

Jermetria - May 6, 2008 06:13 PM (GMT)
Same here. They are great together and I can see myself getting sucked in by them. They shared scenes in the first half of the show.

donna515 - May 6, 2008 06:30 PM (GMT)
I wasn't a huge fan of FF when she was on Days, but I have to admit I really like her as Gigi. I've always liked JPL, and I like their snarkiness together.

SOD also says that OLTL wanted Jason Cook, I'm guessing to reunite with Farah, but GH ultimately nabbed him.

Same here. The most I'm doing is sporting a "Balsco" banner if I find a good one. Zach and Kendall are the first, last and only couple I'll campaign for.

Cheryl - May 6, 2008 07:37 PM (GMT)
Oh... I won't be campaigning for them either. But I'm definitely looking forward to some HAWT ten years too long sex! WEEEEE!!!!! LOL

Kristine - May 6, 2008 08:06 PM (GMT)
See, I don’t want to like them, because Rex was on my list after the whole Tommy/Sam thing. But I’ve been watching at lunch lately, usually with a few co-workers, and we’ve been talking about them a lot, so I’m starting to let down my grudge. (I loved Rex before.)

Regardless, I loathe Ahhhdriana and can’t wait for this wedding mayhem to hit. Add a little David Vickers and I’m freakin’ golden.

eleven81 - May 6, 2008 10:32 PM (GMT)
I don't watch OLTL regularly, but I do know what's going on.

I love FF and I agree that she and JPL have amazing chemistry. Although I refuse to get sucked into another soap, (AMC & GH is more than enough for me) I do check it out from time to time to see what's going on. Well, that and the fact that I adore TSJ.

You took the words out of my mouth, Kristine! Tuc Watkins is fantastic!!!!


Cheryl - May 7, 2008 06:15 PM (GMT)
EEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! I'm sooooo hooked. Rex just admitted to Gigi that he didn't try to kiss her to make a point about Jared, he tried to kiss her for himself. EEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheryl - May 8, 2008 12:40 AM (GMT)
SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER

QUOTE
Gigi declares her love for Rex in the middle of the wedding ceremony and gets a punch in the face from Adriana.


Damn! This shit is gettin' GOOD!!! EEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! :yay

eleven81 - May 8, 2008 12:42 AM (GMT)
Damn it! You are determined to get me sucked in, no?? LOL

I hope Gigi goes down swingin'!
Rex doesn't know he's the daddy yet, does he?

Rita - May 8, 2008 12:48 AM (GMT)
I'm a long time Rex fan. I love him with Gigi. But, my favorite Balsam pairing is with Bo. I love their relationship. Bo is a major reason why Rex is now ready to be a dad. Adriana has long overstayed her welcome.

Jermetria - May 8, 2008 12:56 AM (GMT)
I thought she was going to tell him about Shane and she is telling him she loves him. Still...it is worth the look on Adriho's face.

No, he doesn't know yet. It's only a matter of time, but I imagine that he still doesn't find out until after the wedding.

And come on... you know you want to watch. This is soapy goodness right here. LOL


And Rita... ICAM. JPL had a shirt on at SSW last fall with two big red hearts that said something like Daytime's Greatest Supercouple and it had Bo and Rex. Love him. LOL

SF Dee - May 8, 2008 03:49 AM (GMT)
How did Balsco come to mean Rex & Gigi? I'm in the dark as I only watch OLTL on my day's off work. B)

Cheryl - May 8, 2008 12:20 PM (GMT)
They call each other by their last names. Balsam + Morasco = Balsco

Desiree - May 8, 2008 12:55 PM (GMT)
I've seen them in a couple of scenes together in passing. They do have really good chemistry. Anyone is better than Adrianna. I have to start getting into OLTL again anyway because I wanna see Marty.

perky7kc - May 8, 2008 04:52 PM (GMT)
OLTL is one of my regular soaps and I also LOVE Bo/Rex.

Count me in on Rex and Gigi. I met FF at Blondie's in December and she is so nice and very pretty. She was looking forward to the Rex/Gigi stuff.

I really liked the John and Blair scenes yesterday. I think these two have good chemistry. I wish Blair would shoot Todd.

Kristine - May 8, 2008 05:23 PM (GMT)

Or, you know, just stop marrying the guy. She knew what she was getting into. I hope she goes running to good old David Caruso-McBain. Good riddance.

Yeah, I loathe Blair. LOL

I actually have those aforementioned co-workers hooked on OLTL because of Starr’s escape, Balsco and Antonio/Talia. I love converts. Hee!

Cheryl - May 8, 2008 06:55 PM (GMT)
Well, we now know where those poles went after they left AMC. lol Shake that sexy thing Sexy Rexy!!!


SNOOP!!!

Rex!!!! :yay I love him.

Thanks Cheryl. I'm no longer in the dark, lol.

There's a new Balsco promo. Hee....

Jermetria - May 12, 2008 01:55 PM (GMT)
EEEEEEEEEEEE!! BALSCO! And more Star drama. Can they send her ass off to a school for rich pregnant teens so I don't have to see her anymore?

Cheryl - May 12, 2008 01:57 PM (GMT)
So you know Starr is going to lose that baby now. No way. But poor Todd, he's going to be crucified for this, that's for certain.

Jermetria - May 12, 2008 02:01 PM (GMT)
Psssh...she isn't going to lose the kid. I bet that is how Blair finds out she is pregnant. She falls down the stairs they take her to the clinic. They announce the pregnancy and Blair kicks Todd to the curb. They are going to connect the Thornhart's and the Manning's forevah!!

Cheryl - May 12, 2008 02:10 PM (GMT)
Yeah, that's true. And if she has this kid, then Todd can steal the kid and try to give it up for adoption or some crazy shit like that. LOL

Jermetria - May 12, 2008 02:20 PM (GMT)
Like he did with Jack...LOL Those were good times.

donna515 - May 13, 2008 04:05 PM (GMT)
More Soapy goodness ahead on OLTL. From the new SOD. EEEE!!@#!

I love them too.
I usually leave OLTL playing in the background, but lately I've been sitting my ass down (and ignoring my babysitting duties...LOL) to watch Rex and Gigi.

That combined with David being back :wub: OLTL has been something I've been looking forward to watching everyday.

ETA: Nice pic Mon!

Kristine - August 18, 2008 07:17 PM (GMT)
This is bizarre, dude. Check out EW.com's PopWatch blog -- there should be a Balsco-themed OLTL/SoapNet ad a couple of posts down.

They are pushing them, big time. Warms my heart.
