Also, we're halfway through May sweeps for 1990. Michael's been killed and Tina is back. We've got just one more big bombshell to come ... Gabrielle finding out the truth about "Matt."
I think if Bo hadn't been accused and convicted of Alicia Grande's murder the previous year, the writers might have had him taking the rap for Michael's murder around this time. Dan was right when he said Michael caused a lot of grief. Michael plotted against and terrorized Vicki during the Eterna storyline and stole Max's hotel right from under him. And what he did to Brenda was absolutely unforgivable.
There are a lot of inconsistancies from day to day in certain stories. One day AL is 4 then he's 3--even in the same episode they were confued on Al's age now that I ponder. Then we have Tina living in San Diego but the next day she supposedly lives in LA and now it's back to San Diego. On a lighter note, the boy playing CJ actually resembles the guy playing Cord.
I shook that off as her traveling between both cities. She did have friends(sort of) in L.A in Delilah and Mary-Lynn. I'm gonna assume C.J. was left with either of them when she went to Vegas. Or old friends of Irene and hers we never met in San Diego.
I get so sick of the garbage Asa constantly(and unnecessarily) gives Tina. There's ppl I dont care for that I run into at times, but I'm obviously not going to make it my mission to start shit with them and vice versa. The old man needs to live and let live. A real man lets grudges go...therefore Asa cannot fancy himself a "real man" as he claims.
He has had former sleaze who have done worse than Tina in Marco Dane and Brad Vernon in his enploy. If they can be redeemed, why can't she. I actually think Asa was either attracted to Tina or saw a younger, female version of himself. Something they both have in common that has never been mentioned(as far as I know)is when it comes to fighting for obtaining love and or protecting loved ones- rules be damned.
@@paulmartin7705 you know, I do think Asa himself might've been fighting an attraction to Tina...I mean how could he NOT be attracted to such a beauty....and just used her pitfalls as a shield. It's so true that Marco/Brad did worse.
He was definitely a hypocrite when it came to Tina knowing about the baby-switch from last year and not saying a word. First of all, Tina was being blackmailed by Gabrielle. Gabrielle threatened to rat out Asa and Cord over burying Austin alive if Tina breathed one word over the switching of Steven and Garrick. If anything Asa, should have been grateful to Tina for trying to protect him and his grandson (her husband). At the very least he should have been more understanding and forgiving, especially when Gabby had blackmailed him as well over the Austin-buried-in-the mountain disaster (she had been hidden in the car when Asa drove Austin's seemingly lifeless body up there). And second of all, Asa is in no position to judge Tina (or even Gabby for that matter), after he deprived Clint of raising his son Cord by threatening Maria and her mother with deportation unless they went away and Maria stayed out of Clint's life forever. Clint didn't even know Cord existed until Cord came to town mid 1986. Even then it was still a few months before both men learned the truth.
I don't, I thought Anthony Call who played Herb was a fabulous actor and I am glad Paul Rauch kept him around for the entirety of the 80's (along with Michael Storm as "Larry", Marilyn Chris as "Wanda", and Ken Meeker as "Rafe".) Mr. Call had great chemistry with Robin Strasser but was good with Elaine Princi. Herb was wonderfully complex from being an ambitious SOB who was constantly humbled. I thought he had a certain kind of charm too.
@@erikandrus4387 I definitely think that Anthony Call was a great actor. I just hate his character... No one could be this mean and vicious and not seem to have any ounce of compassion. He's so very black and white... He seems very hateful about everyone's intentions and it's just kind of boring at this point.
@@belinda8780 he is a broken, warped record - I actually feel bad for the actor that had to play that part! always the same mean, narrow-minded was - never seemed to want to get to the whole truth
Merry Christmas, Classic OLTL! Tina reminiscing about baby C.J. is unintentionally appropriate for the season.

He just always seemed giddy about taking his own friends down. Lol
