* SoapWithinAShow: A Soap Within a Soap! ''Fraternity Row'' was introduced in 1988, with several characters getting involved in its production, and the show gleefully using it to explore all sorts of {{Metafiction}} angles about the soap genre and ''OLTL'' itself, right down to ''FR'' being created by one "Agnes '''Dixon'''''.

* NotSoDifferentRemark: A soap magazine once asked Laura Koffman what kind of a mother her character Cassie would be. She responded, "Dorian (her mother) in disguise--very possessive of her child." Indeed, after miscarrying, she rushed into adopting an abandoned baby, tried to stop his birth mother from visiting, and even tried to kidnap the child, Dorian-like behavior that everyone pitied instead of condemned because of her loss. Indeed, both women separately tried to pay the girl off, prompting her to snap, "First your daughter, now you. Well, now I see where she gets it from."

Overprotective Dad has been disambiguated


* BitchInSheepsClothing: The main character Viki's dad, Victor Lord Sr. Originally seen as simply a domineering and OverprotectiveDad during his original run on the show, it was revealed in the 1990s, presumably after his death, that he was a pedophile who molested Viki as a child. He briefly was revealed to have had his death faked in the early 2000s with Mitch Laurence's assistance, before dying again, during which we got to see the real, ugly Victor Lord BeneathTheMask.

* VillainHasAPoint: Carlo Hesser is an evil, murderous psychopath, but he's absolutely right to blast Alex for lying to him about being pregnant and her idiotic plans to procure a baby to pass of as theirs. He outright incredulously asks her how she thought she could get away with it.
