Erika slezak is the best actress daytime ever had. Watching this you almost forget she is playing niki and Viki, it's like two different actresses who are both brilliant but then you remember they are both Erika
This woman is brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. One of few actors who can play two characters talking to one another and sell it. I absolutely hope we have ES when OLTL goes online
Viki had to realize that Niki was indeed a part of her; whether or not she wanted to admit it. But eventually she did realize it. And Niki and Viki managed to get along somewhat.
The last time niki smith was in control was back in 2002 or 03 I believe. But Niki appeared in heaven again during another outer body experience much like this one last year during the shows 40th anniversary so they redid some old storylines and viki going to heaven was one of them. Then Niki appeared to Tess Jessica's alter in hallucinations when she gave birth to her stillborn child last year also
@uptownbronze Niki eventually became extremely mean. I wonder what Viki would have thought (at this time) if she knew about Tommy, Jean Randolph, Princess, Tori & the Persona of Victor Lord! ;-) Niki wouldn't seen so bad! LOL!
I would love to see Viki be Victor Lord again! She sent chills up my spine when she was Victor. But Tommy also scared me. Jean is just too cool for words. I love Jean!
I know! In the 60s, 70s, 80s, and early 90s, all they had was Niki. Then, they get 5 other alters, and they use Niki more! I wish they's use the 'Victor Lord' alter...or Tori...
dang she got alot of these she taped them when it comes on what we well my gram use to do put a blank tape in the vcr and time it but how you get it on the computer
Um, besides Nikki Smith, who was Viki's other personality? I know she had another one. But besides the name of her other personality, what WAS the other personality?
Does anyone remember when Niki Smith first "appeared" on OLTL? Was it 1970? 71? Wasn't Viki's father still around at the time? (Maybe Niki sent Mr. Lord to his grave!)
Niki first appeared in 1969, during Gillian Spencers time. She walked out before she could marry Joe. The therapists told her she was fine. Seven years later, Viki's personality, Tori, came out and murdered Victor.
and victor Lord. Jean kidnaps Dorian. Tori burns Llanfair down and tries to burn the Banner. Victor tries to get Viki to committ suicide. It is revealed that Tori killed Victor Lord.
2001- Viki fakes her alters to get away from Gina.
2002-Niki comes back and tries to convince Natalie that she has DID and tries to kill Ben.
2005-Niki makes a brief appearance to explain Tess.
2008-Niki helps Tess give birth; Jean help Viki find Jared & Natalie.
this aired in 1987! they haven't relesed the best videos yet! 1985-1987 are the golden years. thet du have sum good ones here and there to tease u try these videos the murder of mitch lawrence pt.1-3,mitch lawrence 1985.
According to spoilers the 40th anniversary show will revisit this storyline by having Viki temporarily die and go to heaven again and revisit Asa, Ben, Mel, and Megan. :)
So....is Niki wearing gray because she's between Heaven and Hell? Just because I heard and observed the bad guys there wearing black and the good ones wearing white.
Do you have other clips? Like from Eternia I think it was called? The underground city?
thanks for the classic OLTL Viki vs. Niki flashback. i hope to see more classic Viki clips soon. i never got to see them. thanks for the download. you're the best:)
Little did Viki know that she would fight Niki again in 1990, 1994 (along with the other alters Tommy, Jean Randolph, Princess, Tori, and the Persona of Victor Lord), and AGAIN in 2004 (I wonder if Niki will pop up again in the future?).
In this clip Nikki (Vicki) looks just like the child she gave birth to Natalie. OLTL did has excellent job with the bay switch story line back in 2001. I was glad that is was reviled the Jessica would still be Viki's mom (you know how soaps are).
@bigal650 I think that Harry O'Neal is Jessica's father. Remember that they assumed that Mitch was her father but Nikki was also w/ Harry before she got back w/ Clint....could be possible. I also believe that Natalie is Nikki's daughter..hint the red hair!
