Darn

Would it have been so bad to have Shawn actually cheat on Belle? This just looks so silly.

Amanda is a character.

The top 5 is a big ol' yikes. And yes that includes Mishael and the disaster of a character that is Amanda.

The show seems to have a large contract (and I assume highly paid considering most of them are veterans) cast with nothing interesting to do.

But how do you plan long-term when you don't know an actor's availability? I see why they sign these actors to such stringent contracts but then of course they do the dumb thing and overuse them with dull story (case in point the actors who played Kyle and Summer, I truly believe both would have stayed if the story wasn't so awful).

Pack it up. Go home.

A discussion in another post got me thinking about the speculation from back in the day that Robert S. Woods wanted to be paired with younger actresses which is why Bo and Nora were separated for so long. Is there any truth to that? I doubt it personally and honestly younger co-stars made him look that much older. Especially when he was with Lindsay's sister.

I was very new to discussing soaps online back but I remember everyone hating it. I was rewatching some of that storyline and they made Bo, Nora and Rachel all shockingly stupid so I kind of get it. That story also lead to Bo and Nora being separated for over a decade, which pissed me off every single day. And this is not the OLTL thread so let me stop.

I think the OLTL ep aired in primetime due to preemptions? It involved Todd holding everyone hostage at the Buchanan cabin because he was accused of murdering Georgie. He had a fake bomb strapped to him or some such nonsense.

I'm black but he's Murtagh because he's much older than me.

Lmao I hate you

Every soap actor joining a new show says all this garbage. Let's see how he feels in 3 months when the story moves like molasses and goes nowhere. That's right! Fix it! Don't get banned! Ho. Heart you

We know the reason Felicia has been on and off so much (Kristina Wagner wasn't on the show) but have they bothered to give Felicia a deeper reason for essentially abandoning her daughters? I know they've had Maxie berate her and had Felicia cry about it but is there any deeper psychological reason why she was an absentee mother once her kids hit their teens?

I don't know, he took the job, he might need the work.

Of your post. Twas a joke.

Khan, admit it, the fcking was in your rough draft.

I think I decided that you were trying to bypass the filter lol Even present day garbage Y&R looks better than GL in its final days.

I can't tell with Newman because I feel like the last 5 years of GL he just looked bored out of his goddamn mind. We're doing this Reva sh!t again?

Have they? I remember I watched for a bit after she broke with blonde dude (Travis?) on his boat and Victoria swore off men and I thought that's where they were going, a ruthless Victoria but almost immediately she was circling Billy again.

Khan I love you but we are not having Nikki fcking her dead daughter's husband in the hospital chapel! Especially since them having sex is what caused her to die! I don't mind the idea just not with these characters. No, I want Victoria to stay around but she needs to immediately be recast OR have them write to AH's strengths, which is cold indifference. Bring back Reed, get him a girlfriend Victoria disapproves of her and have her terrorize the poor thing. Stop writing her as a romantic heroine, AH cannot play that.

"I looked up her iMDB"

Y'all just want everyone to die! I think Y&R is still salvageable with the cast they have (minus Chloe, Kevin and Chelsea, they can all die painfully), they just need better stories.

They hired for looks. Not that soaps haven't hired for looks in the past or don't currently but in the late 90s/early 2000s it was really bad. Hair models galore. And JY was hot off of B&B. I can't explain Coltin Scott Stephen Martinez.

I don't know what their relationship was like initially but MTS and AH affectionately call each other "mom" and "daughter". I think AH is a atrocious actress but that's sweet.

Have they even addressed the age difference? Jack was with a woman young enough to be his granddaughter (twice!) and it wasn't even a story point.
