Tipping my hat to CC and JL, for 2 fabulous years of friendship, and love and romance that has NEVER been done in daytime before. THANK YOU LADIES!!!!!!!!!! and a special THANX to you OTALIAFAN, for you hard work, and devotion. and bringing together this community of women. we have laughed together cried together & fought together. AND IT HAS BEEN ONE HELLUVA RIDE!!! because of you we can come here and relive this story again and again. OTALIA FOREVER.
Thank you from me, too. I love the happy ending and the acceptance of their community. The Godess and Dimples will stay with me as a exciting and wonderful journey. Thank you to the writers and every one who made this s/l possible. Love & Gratitude to Otaliafan and all the other otalia channels!
Thank you Otaliafan for loving Otalia...as rushed as the Otalia clips may seem to be today, I feel very lucky to have enjoyed the entire episode today and cried every step of the way...I'm not guilty that I never joined the " I hate the NO kiss and pregnancy plot". I've enjoyed the Otalia story so much it breaks my heart to see it end, I love that Olivia is happy with the love of her life and that a year later they are happy....GL gave me Otalia and I'm greatful.
Well Otaliafan,I will say Thank You for bringing us our muse! These incredible clips influenced a vast range of creativity in people around the world! I will miss Otalia,GL,all the fun characters on Otaliafan board,their names and comments. The near heart attacks,and anticipation of a kiss that I knew would kill me! The eyes,the lips,the dimples,the scoots.Peanut butter,cookies,imaginary food.Finger sucking,forehead touching.Green steps,Fol. Tired eyeballs,late for work,pure addiction..love!
Thank you for all the posting, it's sad everything as ended. The show will continue in a different light on Venice. Hope to see you posting something for them. Again Thank You So Much!!!
Thanks for all of this Otaliafan... the clips, the interviews, BPD... the start of this amazing community. You started all of this madness, and I'm glad you did! It's been one hell of a ride.
So, after Friday I was expecting this... this... the end. I knew I would be prepared on Monday, and bothered to make myself busy at 10:00am with something else. But ahhhh.... today. Tuesday, no GL, no Otalia. It really hit home. Now that the grieving steps are taking their place, just wanted to thank you!! "Otaliafan" other channels out there that have placed so much effort in creating a community where we can see our ladies and share our thoughts. Venice C'Mon down! Ciao Bellas!
I haven't commented these last days. But watching again I had to say... so cute how Natalia doesn't think of Frank at all... she has her mind so full of Olivia... and she's doesn't really care about Frank but she's willing to follow whatever Olivia has in mind, just because. She says "maybe this day will go realy well for him "like meaning "he'll be fine.. don't worry 'bout him"... ha, ha... she's so happy to be with Oliva nothing can bother her...
Lol, love how Nat is all "Huh?What?" when Liv mentions Frank's name. Our sentiments exactly.^^ And do notice that we have progressed to advanced handholding at the table. Make out handholing. And I am saying this without spite.That's the kind of movie theater handholding when you can't wait for the movie to be over. Oh, bad choice of words. Good night peeps, hugs!
i know soo many ppl are upset beacause there was no kiss, but i am satisfied how the story ended. Just as long as our girls are together. Thank you Venice. i can not wait even tho i am going to miss GL ssooo soooo much.
CC and JL not only bring eye sex and hand sex to a whole new level... they bring just touching each other and stroking hair to a whole new level... its amazing what you can do when are told you cant kiss, to still get the point across that they where madly in love with each other..I miss them so much...
Seriously was hoping they would name the baby Spencer but hoping that her last name is...hee hee...also love the hand rubbing that jl does with cc's hand...so sweet
So I never watched GL or even knew about it but I found this storyline and thought I'd give it a go. I binged it in 2 weeks and just finished it, I wish it didn't end here. It's such a beautiful, great relationship and it's been so interesting I couldn't stop watching it most chances I had. I love how it has a happy ending but would have loved it to continue. There love for each other was so amazing and real. ❤❤❤
CBS missed a great chance to bring this love story truly out. Just look at all the tv shows know that have lesbian couples on them. Shame on you CBS for not taking the hard stance and just doing the right thing. A LOST chance that you will never get back.
estefanec- I'm still trying to get over it too. The feelings of outrage and injustice are overlayed with this awful flood of personal hurt. Like someone you cared about let you down. Hang in there. Raise your brimming martini glass (don't spare the olives),toast the wild ride that was Otalia, take a big drink and remember we still have our community and we're moving to Venice!
estefanec- I went through all those emotions you're experiencing. It's hard to imagine at this point in history that a beautifully developed love story between two people,that happen to be women, could be so blatantly censored. I cringed everytime other characters kissed or our girls kissed other people. The silver lining is that it inspired CC to create her own web series that will carry on in spirit what derailed so badly on GL. The characters will be different, but it's still CC & JL!
Hey guys, if you want to see how much of an International Impact Guiding Light has had, go to bollywoodbhakti or go to this clip: Longest running serial in India CID wid producer B.P. Singh and dr. Praveen Tiwari Part 1. They compare GL to their own Soap in India that's also been on the air for a long time. You won't understand what they are saying because they are speaking Hindu but it's very interesting.
Ha! I've finally figured out the secret Otalia code! "What do you wanna do?" "I don't care, as long as I'm with you" The next scene they show the two in, they're having coffee.Latte.
The story of Olivia and Natalia should have ended with a kiss but I'm glad it ended on a happy note. I can't help but think how thoroughly they would have screwed up the most wonderful love story ever on a soap had GL not been canceled. I'm sure some conservative, repressed, 1950's dwelling jerkwad would have demanded that, as in all other soaps, Otalia have a horrible break up and each start having bad relationships with man after man after man after...you get the point.
I think all the seasons are going to be 12 episodes long although hoping they will be at least a few mins later.. she is going to do like four seasons in a year.. although it was worth the ten dollars to see them finally kiss.. i hear the scene between Ani aka Jessica and her new love interest is going to be better than the one we waited so long for.. i dont think Gina and Ani are going to end up together at the end of this season.. but hopefully next season..missing Otalia..
@rhyfeddu Keep in mind that Blake & Frank have known each other since 1989, and Frank Dicopoulos has worked with Three Of The Four Blakes, Elizabeth Denehy, Sherry Stringfield, and of course Liz Keifer, they were Friends way before they became Lovers and I think that's why they will make it.
OK! now i ask that on other channel but no response, what is that special event for the fans on tomorow (sept. 19th) even CC mentionned it but what, when, and where (is it on TV ) Please someone answer!!!!!!!
Well it's over I actually got emotional watching today. But did I miss something they never explained what happend to Jeffery. But that scene of the girls just staring at each other was pure love. I enjoyed it. And I thought that line from frank about changing the diaper despite the fact the kid has two mommies was kind of cute lol. It was funny though how when Liv asked him and blake if they were a couple and blake said they met online Otalia actually had judgement on their faces funny as hell.
i was over GL awhile ago. its sos ridiculous that the entire town get to kiss and show affection but not otalia. also they showed buzz smoking in the cemetary, now that they can show, but no kiss between 2 people who r committed and in love
Love this video I thought they were to name their baby,, otalia this is lol this their he is best final ever cept it needs a kiss 😘💋💋💋 here and there 💋💗💓🥰🥰🤩🔥🔥🔥💗💓💕💕
@sunshineandfriends Um... not convinced it's Remy's kid if you're talking about the scene i think you are... I think that Marina is holding Henry and Shane is holding Reva's son (his brother) Colin.
I think that what they should have done is have Frank Dicopoulos who is the longest male cast member debuting in 1987 saying something like: "We the people at Guiding Light thank you for 72 Years of loyalty and TV Viewing, for so many of us, it wasn't just a job, it was an extended Family so from our Family to yours, thank you so much for watching."
At least someone liked it. I think that scene made it even more painfully obvious that there's a kiss lacking. I'd prefer them just being too busy to be romantic than to be romantic in such a sterile way.
Oh and I would also like to add the fact that I flipped off a lets make a deal commercial earlier today. If I wanted to see wayne brady for an hour a day i'd read harriet beacher stowe. Just sayin.
Now that Frank finally has a life, Otalia aren't his first priority. So when I dream up future episodes of GL where our girls are always the headliners, I will dream that Frank is not always barging in.
so did i get that right that jeffrey is alive? is he still married to reva? then why is reva going back to josh? i thought, jeffrey was the love of her life....
Isn't it funny, Doris was able to get Ashlee into Berkeley but Carmela Soprano couldn't get Jeannie Cusomano's sister Joannie to get Meadow into Berkeley not that she wanted to go anyhow.
Tipping my hat to CC and JL, for 2 fabulous years of friendship, and love and romance that has NEVER been done in daytime before.

Dude, this is like one of the best episodes ever!!! I cracked up at that minute wedding!! X3
Thank you for all the posting, it's sad everything as ended. The show will continue in a different light on Venice. Hope to see you posting something for them. Again Thank You So Much!!!
Also the Frank and Blake storyline with the online dating and them having no idea they were talking to each other was hilarious 😂
Thanks for all of this Otaliafan... the clips, the interviews, BPD... the start of this amazing community. You started all of this madness, and I'm glad you did! It's been one hell of a ride.
thanks for sharing this. I could love them only thanks to this channel. thank you!!

Marina Cooper was wrong in saying ; she's the only Cooper girl left. Natalia's baby girl is a Cooper Rivera Spencer
So I never watched GL or even knew about it but I found this storyline and thought I'd give it a go. I binged it in 2 weeks and just finished it, I wish it didn't end here. It's such a beautiful, great relationship and it's been so interesting I couldn't stop watching it most chances I had. I love how it has a happy ending but would have loved it to continue. There love for each other was so amazing and real. ❤❤❤
I was the same.
It's so eerie to know that when the show debuted in 1952 on TV, many of the cast members weren't even born yet!
CBS missed a great chance to bring this love story truly out. Just look at all the tv shows know that have lesbian couples on them. Shame on you CBS for not taking the hard stance and just doing the right thing. A LOST chance that you will never get back.
I thought they were going to name their baby Otalia!!! This is like the best final ever!! 'cept it needs a kiss here and there. X3
i love this show. Otalia fan , that's me :D
God Jessica Leccia is so beautiful... I'm going to miss her and the gorgeous Crystal Chappell until Venice and (DAYS)!
estefanec- I'm still trying to get over it too. The feelings of outrage and injustice are overlayed with this awful flood of personal hurt. Like someone you cared about let you down.

Even tho im immensely disappointed in the lack of an Otalia kiss, the scene of them just staring at each other made it worth it....

Blake and Frank are 2 minutes into their date and have gotten as far (hand holding) as Nat and Liv. Oy.

ugh how i hate those producer! Otalia is the sweetest couple!!! I know a kiss isn't much but c'mon why can't they kiss!!
It would have been perfect I've they had just one little kiss.. However CC looks gorgeous with the dark(er) hair.. JL looks adorable as always!
Doris: " Take turns and drink a lot of coffee"-mom 😄

193017- I think it's some kind of twitter fest with the Big Purple Dream folks. I assume CC will be chatting it up with her fans.
does anyone know the last song at the end of this video??
Who are the two babies in this scene. I know that one is Baby Henry but who's the other one?
Ok, the only thing that redeemed this episode for me was the uber fast wedding. Why can't all weddings be that efficient? =D
I said it before and I'll say it again name the baby OTALIA...
I think that what they should have done is have Frank Dicopoulos who is the longest male cast member debuting in 1987 saying something like:
"We the people at Guiding Light thank you for 72 Years of loyalty and TV Viewing, for so many of us, it wasn't just a job, it was an extended Family so from our Family to yours, thank you so much for watching."
At least someone liked it. I think that scene made it even more painfully obvious that there's a kiss lacking. I'd prefer them just being too busy to be romantic than to be romantic in such a sterile way.
The other baby is Clayton Boudreau, the son of Remy & Christina Boudreau.
For someone who had a heart transplant..Olivia doesn't have any scar. She must have a great plastic surgeon..lol!
should be able to get otalia on dvd z
Heya peeps, check out the venice website! There's a Vcommunity tab on there!
cheers
Jeffrey is running around after Edmund until he kills him, guess he never got him....
Liz Keifer's (Blake) daughter is named Isabella in real life.
I know, seriously! Natalia is like WTF! Frank! Even when he's not there he can still ruin a perfectly beautiful moment. Dammit!!
I am sorry, but I must say this. There was only one name that baby should have had and it should have been OTALIA,lol.
5:01 - "yeah" ... and that's all it takes for me to crumble and melt. how does she do that?!?
WOW.... NO KISS....
so this is it, the end?
:(
Who would have thought that they went from being "Bitter Enemies" 10 Years ago to being civil to each other.
we will miss you was the baby really ivy
Oh and I would also like to add the fact that I flipped off a lets make a deal commercial earlier today. If I wanted to see wayne brady for an hour a day i'd read harriet beacher stowe. Just sayin.
Now that Frank finally has a life, Otalia aren't his first priority. So when I dream up future episodes of GL where our girls are always the headliners, I will dream that Frank is not always barging in.
Comment about the scar--makeup.
im also surprise that the hand stroking made the cut. maybe the director or producer was getting some latte too.
so did i get that right that jeffrey is alive? is he still married to reva? then why is reva going back to josh? i thought, jeffrey was the love of her life....
OK, just realized it's 72 names as in the 72 years of the show... i am so slow...
Isn't it funny, Doris was able to get Ashlee into Berkeley but Carmela Soprano couldn't get Jeannie Cusomano's sister Joannie to get Meadow into Berkeley not that she wanted to go anyhow.
Carolm007 I hear you bring our community right to venice, we will support CC with her web series and make it fuckin fantistic..............
Where is the kiss kaosksok
was hoping they would name the baby spencer.....dang it...well maybe spencer is the last name..hee hee..
Good bye friend!
Well, there already was a BPD Twitter fest last night.
Frank Blake felt pity for you that's why she went out with you no wonder people around the world are calling you Frank the wander suits you.
im so sad its ending
Why doesn't Frank get in that think brainof his natalia was already pregnant so Frank it was not yours so take a hike.
