During this time, I was involved in the glory days of As The World Turns, but every once in awhile I would turn to OLTL...loved the whole Tina/Maria story. And the music!!
YES! watching this clip- the music is everything! I find so many things on UA-cam and I like watching the old shows. I would like if they had a channel with all the old clips of the shows like this one.
The bartender is the actor who played the quartermaine butler on gh in the 90s ! Maria is awesome is a Tina like blonde wig. So insane to kill off maria. Most people loved her & thought she could have caused trouble for many years in llainview!
And just to prove how interesting and dynamic the characters were back then... You'd think Tina would have had a hot little sports car but apparently she drove a massive old beater!! Ha Ha!!!
OMG!!!!! I thought the actress who played Maria, Barbara Luna ("no relation" to Luna Moody Holden?) had passed away in the 1990’s but she is STILL alive! Wouldn't it have just snapped One Life back into VIVID TECHNICOLOR if Mitch had come back to Llanview with ‘presumed dead Maria?
So the club owner's wife was that Judith Chapman character who was later killed in prison? Poor woman. Just one tragedy after another. Maria with those crazy eyes, gunning for Viki pedal to the medal, wow that was a scary moment. And imagine if she'd hit anything -- all the aerosol on Maria and Tina's heads would have sent the car into flames immediately. That flashback of Maria raging at Viki, even threatening Kevin or Joey, scary. I wish Maria had stayed around longer.
@themirrorsofmymind I would have loved it, but at the same time too worried about what they would have done to Maria Roberts characters before they killed her off a few days after her return.
@chloeforman Okay, so the chloroform scene IS on UA-cam, now. However, obviously those dang news briefs traumatized me, anyway! Did ANYONE see what happened after Maria dives towards Viki? Can you (post) or describe it.
@ 1:30 Viki getting all "Tommy" on Maria, don't threaten her sons! Btw I didn't remember Judith Chapman(ex Ginny Blake GH) on OLTL .She,was awesome in The Shooting of DL Brock storyline. Barbara Luna fantastic as Maria Roberts #livinLaVidaLoca
@chloeforman So I think that was also not EVER AIRED because of a news brief. Now, LOOK at a LOT of ABC's programming. You know what they say about karma... I guess karma was saying "since you didn't appreciate it when you HAD good programming..." lol!
And I don't mean to preach, but big wigs are like Cable ruined the big three, but really abc, nbc, and cbs would always lose popular actress and actors by refusing to pay them and NOT SHOW PROGRAMMING THAT WAS FILMED, just because it was a little inconvenient. How many GREAT shows have been tossed aside while CONSTANTLY creating new shows. The reason Cable Stations became so huge is that they RESPECT their particular audiences! Except MTV and looked what happened to the music industry!!
Just to emphasize how mordantly brain dead network tv execs are... I distinctly remember not seeing that episode, and I think it was preempted for some pointless newscast. They would MAKE PROGRAMMING then INTERRUPT it for a NEWS "BRIEF" then simply NEVER PLAY THE FOOTAGE... EVER. On a show that is STILL on the air. Man.
@@MRInvincible569 I know, I was just trying to be polite and not bring up anyone that is deceased and their probs. I heard that no one liked Luna - no one.
I use to love when OLTL played hip music

Maria cruising around Llanview in a blonde wig=classic. I love how toward the end Maria became full tilt boogie crazy.
A sign the show was writing her off !! I Could not stand Tina either !!! 😂😂

Do you have the Tina chloroformed by Maria scene?

8:08 T says she chloroformed me. Than she says she knocked me out.
Background music was working with Maria cray cray world.....lol

They haven't touched their food. LOL
It was said that Luna was terrible to work with and the cast wanted her gone, thus her really dying on the show.
It would have been entirely plausible for Maria to have faked her death just to frame Tina.
The Enforcer No. None of the cast liked Luna, especially Ritchie.
@@travisjames3517 Maybe she was a lot like Maria in real life. Leaving out all the psycho stuff of course.
@@MRInvincible569 Lol. All I know is that she wasn’t liked and Ritchie loathed her, but he was an ass in real-life, so.....
@@travisjames3517 From what I have read Ritchie had a drinking problem and was extremely difficult at times himself. I think both of them had issues.
