    Hopefully Tricia will be available for regular returns.

     

    I'm wondering why Mariah, who is childless and in a relationship, would agree to carry another woman's child?

     

    Wouldn't she and/or Tessa be thinking about a child of their own?

     

    Maybe Chance should  have reservations about using Mariah - something to create some sort of conflict.

     

    The stories are so boring at the moment. At least no serious damage is being done.


    The Mariah surrogate story is awful. No one asked for this, no one wants to see it. She’s been friends with Abby for what, 10 minutes? And now she’ll carry the baby? GMAFB.

     

    Abby’s SOBBING about not having a baby 15 minutes into her marriage shows you how bad this show is right now.

     

    And what about Mariah looking around the Chancellor place like it’s some grand mansion? Gag me. That living room is tiny, and no, we don’t believe there’s a wing that Chance hasn’t seen.

     

    Who blocked the scene in Victoria’s house when she and Billy were working? Stevie Wonder? They looked stupid and ridiculous sitting in chairs across the room like that.

     

    Dont get me started on that set that looks different every time we see it, or the fact that they continue to line up the sofa and chair right in front of the fireplace — but facing away from it.

     

    A mess.

    It's actually offensive as a Kristen and Marlena fan.  Kristen tried to destroy Marlena, John and her children.  She was tried to kill Marlena, helped kidnap her multiple times, plus all the Eric/Brady stuff, and all the manipulation of John.  When Eileen returned Marlena/John basically imploded at her mere presence, but now everything is fine?  Kristen vs. Marlena was a fabulous rivalry and it's completely been ruined.  I could never, ever imagine Eileen and Deidre sharing a scene like that.  It honestly bugs me way more than Ben/Marlena.  Kristen has lost all her edge and is useless now.  It's a shame for such an iconic Days character.


    It is a shame, and although I feel bad for saying it, I hate the way SH plays Kristen. There’s no lightness or humor at all, and everything is deadly and tortured. Plus, her vocal fry grates my nerves.

    Watching the 70's OLTL just posted shows what can be done with a low budget and simple storytelling.

     

    Y&R needs to drop the 80's corporate stories and 'mega wealthy' characters and go back to more relatable storytelling based on character interactions.


    Drop the corporate stories and the wealthy Newman and Abbott families? Then what’s left? I really don’t know where you’re suggesting they go.

    The crossover was so disappointing 


    I haven’t seen anything in this crossover that makes it worth discussing. Summer found out nothing about Sally she couldn’t have learned in a phone call. What Sally did at Forrester would have been big news, so the whole thing is stupid anyway.

    I appreciate the idea but not sure I want to see a young gay teen self loathing. I'd prefer to see him happy about his situation and any concerns the adults may have to be addressed in a positive way. Not that he wouldn't have any problems but that whole 'it gets better' narrative always seems to be the default.


    Y&R won’t write in a gay Moses, self-loathing or otherwise. We’re not getting another gay character in town, because this show has no guts.

     

    I can’t even credit the Faith drinking story that so many people like. We never see Faith drinking or partying, probably because there’s no budget. And this older girl Jordan is a bust. Why would she want to hang with Faith?

     

    I could see if she wanted some of the Newman money, but they’re writing it as if she wants Faith around. Why? Does anyone think Faith is that much fun? And there’s also no reason given for Faith wanting to hang with Jordan and other girls who bully her. The storyline is bad.

  4. I know it’s a soap, but I just have a hard time accepting all that Gwen has done to get back at Jack, and all the time it’s taken. 
     

    She said all she wanted was to have Jack love her and care about her. OK, then why do the stuff she’s done?

     

    And I still don’t understand why Jack is so confused about everything and denying it all. And then they decide not to do a paternity test? Please.

    I like Juliette Jeffers (Nurse Caulfield). I wish she had an actual role. She’s been around forever.


    She lost a lot of weight and looks really good.

      Amnesiac Sonny/Mike is already grating on me.


    Same here. And are we going to get flirting between this nurse and Sonny? The story is a mess because there’s no way he’d be missing for more than a couple days. A mob boss and no one knows him???

     Thinking about it, it really has been crazy how Cyrus has eaten the show over the past year. It's like they just decided to throw him into as many stories as they could. I wonder what the original projection for the storyline was. It can't be what we've been seeing now.

     

     


    I hate the entire Cyrus involvement, period. Lousy character that’s not believable played by an actor who’s miscast. He’s just not someone who looks like a threat to an entire town.

    Oh god we had smug Super Hero Serial Killer today 🙄. Can’t Ben just leave town now and go find himself. His character serves no purpose and I can’t imagine anyone wants to see him with nu-Claire. Honestly I don’t want to see nu-Claire with anyone or even see nu-Claire at all.


    You know I agree with you completely about nu-Claire. I haven’t liked that actress for one second, mostly because she’s not Claire — she’s a different character. Even when I complain about the actress, I never feel like I’m watching Claire.

     

    And the plan is to pair her with Ben? Sorry, but that’s making a bad situation even worse. I can’t think of anyone I’d rather see Ben with LESS than nu-Claire.
