Take a look at the list of writers who were responsible for Todd's story until his 1998 departure on the plane . . .
March 30th, 1998 to December 31, 1998 Pamela K. Long

December 1996-June 1997 Jean Passanante, Peggy Sloane (co-headwriter)

March 1995 to March 1996 Michael Malone
January 1992 to February 1995 Josh Griffith, Michael Malone
August 1991 to January 1992 Michael Malone
I want to MARRY Josh Griffith. Aside from that, interesting, right? The stories I loved most were written by MEN not women! :D
On another note, OLTL, please hire ME to write Todd's return. I have a team of writers here who would do a fantastic job...Trinity, Gem, Precious, Ellen, Bjuju, Gail, Sonja, Cindy and more. If I left someone out, just chime in.
:D
On that note, BECOME a WRITER. Respond to THIS THREAD with a RETURN STORY for RH built around THANKSGIVING. I know it's not REALLY going to happen then, but write your story idea anyway. Note, this is not FANFIC where you write the whole script and all conversations. This is a story idea, where you just give us a summary of your fave Thanksgiving Story Idea. :D THis will come back for various holidays and months until he DOES appear.
Wouldn't it be fun if elements of what we wrote came true? LOL
Ok, so add on, join in, get that pen, or, er, that keyboard going.
Here's mine....I don't think he will really be on screen at Thanksgiving, so I just went the "hint" route.
ReplyDeleteTSJ's character did the cooking, and it was a comedic, lighthearted, sickening scene. He is trying but ends up burning the sweet potatoes and has to open the windows to get air.
As they are sitting down to dinner, Dani, TSJ's character, and Tea are just finished saying "Grace" lead by Dani, and as TSJ's character stabs into the turkey to start carving, they hear a loud "crawk!"
They all turn to see that Moose has appeared in the window.
End scene.
Here's my version.....and though it is way to early, Todd has to show up in mine!!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteIt's the end of the show and we have one of those sappy montages going on with some sappy song......showing everyone enjoying their Thanksgiving Day dinner......Podd, Tea and their kids are laughing and eating, looking like the Cleavers.......the Cramer women are all at Dorians together.....Viki's house is filled with family and friends, Bo and Nora, CLint, Jess and Brody, and Natalie and John.....everyone having the perfect day.
Then we see Marty stumble out of the back of Rodis...with a few drinks in her, alone and crying. She is mumbling to herself....."thankful? for what......my son is in prison when I should be.....John hates me, Patrick is dead....and then there is Todd Manning trying to keep me away from the one piece of family I have left, my grand daughter...."
We see the feet of someone walking up behind her....listening to her ramblings. Marty continues her pity party "hasn't Todd done enough to me.....a gang rape and then the mind rape he pulled on me again.....and now trying to take Hope out of my life, the one piece of COle I have left.....I won't let him crush me again....it won't happen!"
"Well if it would help a beautiful women like yourself feel better, I could take this Todd Manning guy out for you"
Marty is frozen in her tracks and can not make herself turn around. "get it together Marty.....you are not crazy.....it can't be" she thinks as she makes herself turn around........only to see Todd Manning face staring at her! FADE TO BLACK
JU. yours is GREAT. I can see you have him set up to not know who he is.... Mine was just for fun, because I know he won't be back. Did you like my bird reference?
ReplyDeleteI loved the Moose reference! That dang bird wins my heart over everytime I watch this part of the vids......Todd and Moose forever!!!!! LOL
ReplyDeleteYeah.....Todd has no memory.....he never does in any of my versions. To me that just makes such a yummy fallout with everyone.
You two are great! Love this!
ReplyDeleteThe part I want to add is: While having their Thanksgiving dinner, Tea spots Moose. She says to imposter Todd "Oh my, Todd - Moose has found you!" Todd says "Who's Moose?" Tea not wanting to ruin Dani's Thanksgiving says "forget it" And now she is starting to realize Todd is not Todd.
Oh I hope you don't mind a little adjustment - Viki was there too and when Moose appears Dani screams in fear and runs out. Tea jumps up I'll go, you two eat. Viki says - Moose s nothing to be afraid of "atoll" and TSJ,s character says "who's Moose" as Tea and Dani come back in. Viki just stares.
ReplyDeleteEven better!
ReplyDeleteLOL this could be fun! I can think of going even further here with all of this!
