From today's very meta One Life To Live, here's perhaps the definitive statement about soap operas, as Victoria Lord talks about the end of One Life To LiveFraternity Row:
I wouldn't be surprised if Agnes wrote it--she appears earlier in the episode as Fraternity Row creator "Agnes Dixon"! But I also wouldn't be surprised if Carlivati or one of his team wrote it.
That was...pretty amazing. Naturally, I loved the two Todd reaction shots, on: "Would the villains get their comeuppance?" and "...come back from the dead..."
So stupidly happy they ended up going with Roger Howarth as the "real" Todd, though I know you liked the other guy. It takes me back to those halcyon days when I'd just moved out of my mother's home and the only channel I could get played One Life to Live every day when I came home from work.
I'm sure if I'd been watching in the '90s, I'd feel the same way re: the Todds. I do love Howarth as Todd, though, and I'm so glad he's going to General Hospital next month.
