Yup, for me it was like old Tea was standing there...not Gary Tomlin's love sick puppy version who would sew together the Manning family picture because T&B are so meant to be...nope, that Tea did not appear today...for the 5 seconds she was on, she looked like a kick ass attorney ready to get Todd Manning out of yet another rape charge...it seemed a lot like that time she walked into Bo's office re the Barbara (was that her name?) accusation...I still have no idea how TSJ and FL will work together, but from what I saw of Tea (head back, standing tall, a smile on her face, oozing a cocky confidence) so far so good...JMO.

ITA. It was good to see her back and that Tea was ready to kick @ss. Hopefully she'll stay that way. Can't wait to find out what the other reason
she's back is. It should be good. BTW, it was Barbara Graham.

I couldn't be happier than I was at seeing Tea today, being that attorney you describe. She made me so proud! She's beautiful, she's tough, she
knows her business, and above all, she knows Todd is a complete idiot. I loved her! I can't wait for next week to really see her in action. CANNOT WAIT!

Nice to see you. You know, for the first time in 6 years, I set OLTL to record because I was away yesterday afternoon. It was such a wierd feeling to want to
get home and fire up the DVR. LOL...

Back Again for Tea | #10 | ||

Hello All, I knew there still had to be some TnT "faces" I recognized trolling the internets. Dynamic...perfecto!
I was shocked to discover that Flo was going to be back on OLTL again. You know, I had to tune in to see just what was the what. It was so good to see her face. Good to see Susan Haskell too! I was always a Marty fan and I always, always, wanted to see more of the Todd/Marty dynamic play out too, in one way or another. I have to say, it's really weird watching this show again. I've only been watching for the past week and I only recognize about half the characters. Even ones that existed when I stopped watching years ago seem different. I guess they would, obviously. In my mind they're all stuck in time back in 2002-ish. In Llanview reality, they've all moved on. I don't like that. They were supposed to stay right where I left them! LOL. I'm trying to stay open minded about TSJ. Really. I am. But, yeah, I am just having a hard time internalizing the idea that THIS is Todd. I mean, crying? Weeping? Really? Really? [Sigh] Am I alone in the thought that TODD, for cripes sake, does not cry? At least, not like that. Openly weeping. Gawd, he's such a girl. When the hell did that happen? Watching that scene with McBain, I had a complete Tom-Hanks-in-A-League-of-Their-Own-moment: There's no CRYING in JAIL! (Side note: Here's how long it's been since I've watched ABC soaps...Everytime Michael Easton comes into a scene I have this tremendous urge to yell, "Run! It's a vampire!") But, okay, I get passed that and I tell myself, "Hurrah, it's Tea! It's Delgado!" I really am excited to see what she's going to do to get him off (pun totally intended), because he's clearly going to get off, yes? I mean, I think that goes without saying. So...are we sure this isn't, like, Powell Lord in some deeply disturbed, years long, really super elaborate psychosis? 'Cuz I'm totally willing to believe that. I'm willing to believe group brainwashing, mass psychosis, a magick glamour, poisoned groundwater resulting in group amnesia...whatever it takes for this not to really be Todd. No, huh? [Sigh...change is good...change is our friend] Then is it alright if I just continue to believe that? I really think it's the only way I can do this. ~Daisy~ (aka...divadaisy) |

This being Powell would completely work. So good to see old faces (and new ones!). Yay for Tea! |

I'm with you all the way. This could totally be Powell pretending to be Todd. I'd buy it in a New York minute plus it is consistent with the show's
history. I will take anything they can come up with as long as this is not Todd.

I mean,crying? Weeping? Really? Really?That is exactly what I thought when I watched OLTL this morning (for the first time in years!) THIS is Todd??? Are you kidding me????? I nearly laughed out loud. On the other hand, Florencia looked fabulous and I'm looking forward to seeing her...as I tentatively gave my TiVo a Season Pass on OLTL.....part of me wants Tea to screw Todd over big time. I don't know how I'm going to feel about FL and TSJ... |

Hi Tracy! Yeah, I think it was supposed to be dramatic and heartfelt.
All it gave me was a major case of the eye rolls. Idiot. RH could have done more with that scene by saying nothing than all of TSJ's completely uncharacteristic hysterics accomplished. As the days go by, my willingness to give the guy the benefit of the doubt is waning...fast. Right now I'm watching more for Tea and Marty than for Todd. Glad to see Tea again, glad to see Marty again, but very, very afraid for them. |

I've been watching on and off for the entire time he's been on and he is completely laughable. He's wept a few too many times for my liking not to
mention completely lacking emotion and intensity. He's never been Todd imo. I'm just watching for Tea myself and her mysterious reason for being back.
Fingers crossed that it isn't dropped or turns out to be something to destroy her as a character.

hellllooooo everyone.
its been a long time...wow. so i felt the need to come back and respond! i heard from kelly that tea and florencia was coming back to
oltl. i watched today. i thought flo did a fabulous job. she was tea again and it was great to see her being fabulous... she was like a cat, slinking into that
jail. imagine my surprise when i get the 'history' of what happened...lol the revisionist history of soaps is something i do not miss. so now it's
always been...marty? and marty and todd were together? i knew i should have caught up instead of just watching an episode after 6 years. nonetheless, florencia
looked fabulous and she stepped right back into tea delgado with the greatest of ease...it was the 'old' tea, trying to get a case and yet still
haunted by her past with todd (the todd i remember). im by no means back to watching the show...when flo goes so do i. if i miss an ep, no biggie. but...its so
great to see florencia again. its been a long time.

Jules!!! Hi!!! I'm in the same boat as you- trying to watch cold after 6 years. So many new faces, LOL. I thought the same thing re: the revisionist
history. I kept thinking to myself , ''Hmm, I know it's been awhile, but that's not quite how I remember things...'' Oh well, most
important thing is that FL is back, looks great, and Téa should be a force to be reckoned with!

She was fantastic, no doubt. Worthy of the TnTers' time! Today was really interesting - great beginning of Tea's return. She was herself, always with
that edge of vulnerability that she's able to cover up quickly with her own bravado. I just adore that character, and love FL for playing her to the
utmost. FL stepped into Tea's shoes once again, as Jules said, with total ease. Awesome. I could wax more on the story, but it doesn't matter. It's
just great to see Tea again.
