True but did Rey not find out she poisoned him?

He forgave her.

Why do I fear that Sharon is going to be headed back to crazy town over this? 

I was thinking she would go to Nick since they've sorta been teasing that.

Has Chelsea founda new love?

He's an [!@#$%^&*] holy begs and begs for years for his stans to get him back on YR and now he's "too good for soaps."

Same guy who spent years starting with when JH left campaigning for the role of Adam back?

I knew it wasn't dead lol

From SOD

Robert Newman as Ashland appears February 9th.
First week he was sent five scripts to shoot on three different days in the first week.
Five episodes one on Wednesday, two on Thursday and Friday.
Had a zoom meeting with Josh and Tony where they talked extensively about the character. Paid particular attention to his relationship with Vikki because relationships are important.
He didn't watch Burgi take of Ashland.
The way Y&R shoots is close to the way they shot before they went through the big transition in the last few years of GL.
He clicked with Amelia and he already adores her. Terrific and professional through and through. Generous and patient. Finding all sorts of surprising connections btn the two characters already.

 He's Pleased with his first five episodes

Another question. when GL ended, has he ever expressed intrerest in doing another soap?

I remember on his SOD Podcast interview he said wasn't feeling Peapack but then again, they didn't give him much to do notably. 

I wonder what it's like for him to be on sets again. Granted they are small and not many but still

I have a question about Robert Newman. How is he at playing ruthless? From what I've heard about Josh Lewis he was a nice guy for the most part. And their finally starting to show Ashland being shady so I was just wondering how he is.

Better yet...? 

Building off @Darn's suggestion: Victoria discovers Ashland and Nikki in bed together.  After a bitter confrontation with her husband and mother, Victoria runs off.  However, she's so overcome by the image of Ashland and Nikki together, she loses control of her car and crashes.  (Whether the crash was deliberate on her part could be left up to the audience to debate.)

At the hospital, a non-responsive Victoria is placed on a respirator, as her family and friends are informed about the accident.  Eventually, everyone is informed that Victoria is brain-dead (shut up!) and not likely to breathe on her own again.  Nikki begs Ashland not to turn off the respirator; however, Ashland believes Victoria wouldn't want to be kept in such condition for the rest of her life.  He agrees to have the machines turned off; they are; Victoria doesn't breathe on her own; she's pronounced dead.

Afterwards, Ashland and Nikki run into each other at the hospital chapel.  Both are feeling extremely guilty over how their actions have led to this moment.  Nevertheless, Nikki lashes into Ashland, believing that Victoria could have recovered had she been given more time.

But...even as Ashland and Nikki's argument grows ever more heated, with Ashland defending his decision to end his wife's life and Nikki accusing Ashland of killing Victoria in order keep their affair quiet, the sexual tension between them mounts, culminating in a kiss and passionate clinch (...in the chapel...with Victoria's body not even cold).

Unfortunately, for Ashland and Nikki, Victor has observed the entire scene from the back of the chapel...and that's when hell REALLY starts to break loose.

Now, I enjoy the show but I find it funny how fans can come up with this stuff so easily and the ppl getting paid thousands to write somehow can't.

I shouldn't have implied anytging about Bill Bell. I just like YR and I'm a bit sensitive and take the criticism personally and I say dumb stuff. I apologize.

Please, please, please. Just ignore me when I say stuff.

Very intelligent man lol 

There's no reason why there shouldn't be one or two more stories playing out onscreen featuring characters that we haven't seen in months

I don't know why Brad is like this. I'm watching the old bold on YouTube and they seem to get good balanced airtime. The british soaps from what I've seen can be balanced with the cast for their 20 minutes

Yeah I don’t see anyone too pleased with Y&R at the moment. There is no story.

I totally get that you want to see *something* (anything!) happen on this boring show but ...

Tessa has clarified more than once that she dated Noah only to grift money from him so that she could use the funds to help her sister. She's emphatically stated several times (both to Theo and to Mariah) that she's gay and not into men.  Previous liaisons with men never felt right.  She has stated that she's gay and not bi.

This current storyline with Noah is just the show trying to push a narrative that Tessa is bi. CBS is like, okay we'll let the lesbians get engaged but not really.

I'd just rather Noah be given something else to do or someone else to fixate on.

I mean of course Teriah needs conflict to keep things interesting -- but let it be something about whatever teenager they adopt?  And I mean ACTUAL tension, not just a coffeeshop convo.

----------------

 

 

editing later to add this:

I mean, under good writers, they could have Noah try to attack Tessa, and then Sharon steps in to stop him and shoots him or hits him with fireplace poker. Sharon is forced to choose between her beloved son Noah and her beloved daughter-in-law Tessa ... then Sharon makes the right choice and defends Tessa.  Noah could die or be hospitalized, everyone would be traumatized.  Mariah would feel bad for her brother but grateful for her mother.  And Sharon would seek counseling so that she keeps her mental health on track.

With good writers, it could be done well.  If they did it with the messaging that if a woman says she's gay, then no man should ever try to change that.  And of course message that sexual assault is always wrong.  And have good writing and nuanced characterizations, and lots of drama.

But the problem is, Josh Griffith likes to write twisted villains, murderers, rapists and criminal cabals (see the novels he's written).  He likes to energize the dark side without bringing in the light.  Remember on Days when he made all the teens into a rapist, an attempted murderer, thieves, vandals, etc etc, AND he had the serial killer plot going at the same time.  Not mention his unending fixation with Adam/Delia/Billy on Y&R.  He'd have us sucked into Noah/Tessa for years. So that's a big no.

That's why I like "This is Us" -- there's plenty of darkness and angst but the Light always wins eventually. And you don't know how the Light will win, it's a surprise, but it does.

Is CBS not letting him go dark this time around? I remember when he got hired and pretty much everyone assumed YR would be dark and gloomy

I am going on a wild guess and say Tracy yr, she is supposed to have something to do with a Phyllis and Jack mystery

Abigail/Kristen/Steve/Kayla/Sarah:
After Abigail gets too close to the truth, Gwen and Ava ship her off to a deserted island, where Kristen has Steve and Kayla. Abigail will soon realize that she's not alone on the island. So the stories are starting to converge and while they're trying to get away, they ultimately come face to face with Sarah. I will say that her return has an unusual twist."

Chad/Tony:
This is kind of an all roads
lead to the island, and it will be nice to see the DiMera brothers teaming up; we don't get to see that too often. So Chad and Tony team up to try to find Abigail when she goes missing. And everybody is kind of ending up headed for the island.

Xander/Gwen:
Xander finally puts his feelings for Sarah behind him and he proposes to Gwen. So just when it looks like Sarah is possibly on the brink of being rescued, Xander is making a commitment to Gwen and marriage."

Ciara/Ben:
They are really starting to plan a future, and look for a bigger place where they're going to start their family. And then something happens and they start to suspect that the devil may not be as gone as they thought. So they are again worried about the safety of their unborn baby and they start to investigate the possibility that the devil is back."

EJ/Clyde:
EJ is wrongly convicted of kidnapping Sami, and when he arrives in his cell, his cellmate kind of rolls over on his bunk, and we see that it's Clyde Weston. The significance of that, as a lot of fans are aware, is that Clyde was responsible for EJ's 'death' several years ago, so when EJ comes face to face with Clyde, we finally get to play it out. It will lead to a potential escalation of bad feelings between these two."

Johnny/Gabi/Jake:
The devil is like a chaos agent and likes to disrupt the happy couples. So we've seen Johnny pursuing Gabi, and she and Jake don't know that they're tangling with the devil. In February. "JoDevil' as we call him, is deter mined to get Gabi into bed."

Allie/Tripp/Chanel:
Tripp proposes to Allie, and he and Allie are in this happy place planning their future. Again, the devil does not like to see happy couples, so Johnny stirs up major drama for them.

Chloe/Brady/Nancy/Craig:
Craig and Nancy's marriage is crumbling and Craig is falling for someone else. We will use that story to bring Chloe and Brady closer. Chloe is not really ready to move into something romantic, but we do see her leaning more and more on Brady. When Craig wants Chloe to meet his new paramour, she asks Brady to come, so you know it becomes a sort of de facto double date."

Nicole/Rafe/Ava:
Rafe is being accused of all this impropriety in the police station and Trask is going after him full force. Nicole rightfully suspects that Ava is behind it and framing him. So she's sort of taking the bull by the horns to prove that Ava is behind all this. Expect a confrontation between those two women."

Paulina/Lani/Eli/TR:
We introduced Lani's biological father, Ray, as TR. He has reinvented himself as a movie producer and he's the person producing Johnny's film. TR insists that he is a new man who has changed and he wants to prove it to Lani. So we see Lani, while very cautious, tempted to get to know that guy, and Paulina, who is more wary. And Eli is on the case as Lani's protective husband, and basically puts TR on notice

Brad Bell says they are doing the Forresters vs. the Logans and going back to the roots of the show.

Brooke/Ridge/Deacon/Taylor/Sheila:
Slowly and surely people start learning Brooke's secret. The secret gets out because of Douglas, and that eventually leads to the beginning of the reveal. Right up until February, it's on the precipice of Ridge finding out.
Steffy and Thomas bring in some help to get actual proof before they go to Ridge and finally get him to open his eyes to Brooke.

Quinn/Eric:
They're repairing their relationship and spending time with each other. We will see Brooke confide in Eric, who is a great supporter of hers.

Carter/Paris/Zende/Grace:
Carter is trying to do the right thing, but he’s drawn to Paris. Grace is going to step in. Grace is going to see enough to want to put an end to this and thinks that Carter is not the route that Paris should go -- given his history with Zoe and his affair with Quinn. And Grace thinks Zende is just a wonderful guy. Grace threatens Carter to stay away from Paris and it's a question of, can he do that or not? Carter also doesn’t want to jeopardize Paris staying at Forrester Creations, so he’s in a dilemma.

Liam/Hope/Steffy/Finn:
Their personal relationships are pretty copacetic at the moment. Steffy is swept up in everything that’s going on with her mother and father, especially when she learns about Brooke and Deacon; and we’re seeing a fair amount of Liam supporting Hope, who is also swept up with Brooke and Deacon.

Victoria/Adam

Victoria's acquisition of Newman Media results in a game of musical chairs with Victoria becoming Adam's boss. Victoria and Ashland could push Adam too far and lead him to rethink his recent change in attitude. He might then engage a dangerous power struggle with the couple. Luckily for Adam, Sally proves a much needed distraction from the sibling rivalry.

Chelsea/Chloe

Chelsea and Chloe find themselves at a crossroads career-wise and must make some hard and fast decisions in order to save their careers

Mariah/Tessa/Noah

Newly engaged Teriah work together to start planning their wedding as they face the pressure to create the perfect day for themselves and their guests. Nick and Sharon grow concerned when they see Noah taking a walk on the wild side as he copes with his feelings for Tessa.

Lily/Billy

Lily and Billy do their best to maintain normalcy in the relationship despite her new position as Chancellor CEO. Billy takes on a passion project as he adjusts to their new arrangement and Lily turns to Jill for counsel.

Abby/Chance/Devon Amanda

Devon and Abby's new parenting arrangement is challenged when Dominic experiences a medical issue. Amanda will once again prove herself as a supportive partner when she jumps in to problem solve. Chance will find himself still struggling to move forward as a result of his PTSD.

Phyllis/Jack

Jack and Phyllis embark on a new mystery and go to the most unexpected places. Traci shares her words of wisdom to point them in the right direction.

Nate/Elena

Nate and Elena experience domestic bliss living together.

Michael/Lauren

Lauren experiences deja vu as she remembers how Michael working for Victor affected their marriage.

Victor/Nikki/Ashland/Victoria

Victor's suspicions about Ashland condition will result in Victor charging Michael to find the truth at all cost. This causes a conflict of interest for Nikki, who worries Victoria's rift with her family might be reignited if she learns of Victor's investigation.

I wish this board would stop stanning Bill Bell. I watched the classics in 2020 and his show was boring too. 

Can't give Griffith any praise at all and it's annoying. He's a nice guy.

He's jumping around? I wonder why they have him sit around in every scene than. He seems to be able to move around fine.
