Subject: Is GT considering FL in his plans?

OK, I'm not an impersonater, just a long lost poster friend who decided to drop in on the board and say hi. I know that I stopped watching OLTL on a regular basis about 4 months ago. Although I do watch when I hear RH is going to be on. However, the last couple of weeks have been ludicrous. Whoever is writing RH's material has completely drained the life out of the character of Todd Manning. The writing and RH are just not explaing to me why he says he now wants Blair. As to the Blair and Todd story, I just do not see any chemistry and I can't see their story continuing this way [given the ratings] past May if RH does not take his out-clause [Please don't let Todd be stuck with Blair through November sweeps]

So I guess I come to the main point. Since GT appears to be going for a B&T reunion and he is writing Todd to show that TOdd in some way does care for Blair [whether its out of his memories of their past, his fear of being alone or for starr] then I ask 'is that all there is to this story, an obvious reunion that does not appear to be helping the ratings even while utilizing their main attraction drawing actor ie., RH?' Well, if it is then GT is missing the boat as to how to best utilize RH's acting talents and how to keep Soap viewers tuned in. Or perhaps,as I fervently hope, GT is setting up the building blocks for a good old fashioned soap story ie., the return of a love interest? I guess I could see this B&T story working if it is intended to get TOdd to a point where he has settled for Blair and he thinks that is all he is going to get knowing that Blair will probably always love Max more and in addition he has given Starr a family. So Todd believes he is as happy as he will ever get and everything appears settled and calm. However, that's when the storm hits and Tea Delgado returns. After all it would not be a believable story if Todd did not have a real dilemma in choosing between two women. THus, the the story must be set up to show that TOdd in some way made a committment to Blair to make it work and to Starr to give her a family. In addition Tea would have a dilemma because she would not only have her pride to protect but also she might see Todd as off limits now because of what Starr wants. Anyway, that's what I want to see for May sweeps. So am I going to get it? Is GT even contemplating that the B&T story is tanking and looking around for certain attorney [LOL] to spice things up again? Any thoughts guys, any rumors? Can I still hope for a Tea return? Sammy
