Y&R: Old Articles
Thanks for posting this. Such great backstage stuff and access to things I never thought we'd ever see, but also such intense, infuriating condescension from the reporters. How unprofessional to keep asking the actors how they feel about working on such low forms as soaps, or editing Lucci's claims about Erica Kane to come on right before Dano's humbler assertions, making Lucci look OTT and ridiculous. And the especially cringeworthy segment with University. Still, great to see various, average people talking about soaps (not just overweight middle-aged women), including men!!! And writers talking about how something doesn't make sense/may not be earned. Imagine that! LOL at Braeden being his motherfucking diva self. I would cut him if he tried to do something like that with my scripts.

Dynasty Discussion Thread
Absolutely. The character Corley had signed up to play was being decimated, so I can't blame him for leaving. As for PSM, it seems she wasn't all that interested in TV or even acting for a long period of time and after the quality of the show nosedived in Season 3 and Fallon was lobotomized, I would have been stunned if she stayed. In fact, it seems to me she stayed longer than expected. Don't panic but we agree again. lol Really interesting character, portrayed by a great actress. That's really cool to hear! Did you ever see him on THE KILLING? So beautiful, and really talented.

Jack was never good, not just when it came to being with men. He's a decent actor but he could never make that writing and the static acting directive work. As for Al Corley, the very reason he wanted to play Steven was because he was gay. The "tenderness transcends gender" bullcrap the writers pulled was insane.

He held up well because he was always a gorgeous, soulful man. Yum! And he did such beautiful work as Steven.

Too bad Jack Coleman never got over looking, and acting, like a soulless robot.

I loved Karen telling Maggie and Althea that maybe one day she'll understand the American sense of humor & Maggie and Althea look at each other like LOL What passes today for humor is the whole cast acting like drunken fools and being behind bars and making nasty jokes about an actor's weight.

LOL at Matt telling Karen to deal with Bellini by cussing him out in German.

Can I rant for a second? You wanna know how deeply screwed soap fans are? We get crappy, continuing soaps (for the most part). We then finally get a classic soap rerun. But, wait. It's on a channel that hardly anyone has access to. Still, out of all YouTube, one person can post episodes. But, wait. They are too frustrated and give up. Still, someone else has access to them. But, wait. They don't want to post them because YouTube crawls up your ass with copyright infringements. Still, there's a link. But, wait. Out of all the times during the day these two episodes could be scheduled, they're scheduled for 12 and 12.30. That means the channel totally skips one of the episodes each day and only broadcasts the second one. Because why respect your viewers? Still, that's something. But, wait!!! The link works perfectly fine, no freezes or blackouts, except for the time the one episode of THE DOCTORS is broadcast. HA. HA. HA.

LMAO! I can't. It's been working perfectly since last night and all of today and, ten minutes before the show, it goes offline. I CANNOT.!!!!!

Yep, that channel shows news at 12. So they're only going to show every second episode? Insane.

Only 8 episodes in, but: Olivia, Gregory and Annie are utterly fabulous. Bette is not far behind. I can see why Meg would be cast as the lead romantic heroine. I love Casey and Rae. They're so sweet. Adrienne Frantz is Adrienne Frantz. LOVE the setup of Mark, Meg, Casey (that body!!!), Michael and Rae living in the same house. Randy Spelling is Greg and Olivia's son? Hot damn NO. The theme song makes a stripper out of me. I gyrate on my chair just listening to it. FANTASTIC. They're missing the strong family/business aspect, though. The show is so silly & soapily cliche & even bad at times but it has something about it.

Matt, thank you so much. I was wondering (my OCD was demanding to know) which number episode we started with!

Riddle for you: Soap opera or porno? OMG. Shrewridan almost runs over A Hunk. Her car then won't start, so he offers to take a look at it. "But you'll ruin your shirt!" (A wifebeater, btw). The guy takes the wifebeater off while the camera zooms out to show his shirtless body, he throws the "shirt" to Sheridan, a woman he just met, and proceeds to look at the car. Is this a soap opera or the beginning of a porno? Meanwhile, Timmy is shaking his Martimmy for the past 10 minutes & Charity was sitting down and talking to herself about having to get to Grace before she leaves instead of getting up and actually getting to Grace. Lord!

That's a shame. The link is working fine for me, though, so whoever wants to try it definitely should!
