Y&R: Eileen Davidson Speaks Out


Recommended Posts

Is this Lexie as of Lexie and Abe? I liked her whenever Days held my interest. Maybe Y&R should pick her up as an Olivia recast!

As for Ashley, why couldn't Y&R just have her character go to Victor and get his consent before impregnating herself. That single action ruined the character. Eileen should have dumped Y&R years ago because the writing has been on the wall for a long time.

I'm very sad about this because ED's return in late 90s, got me back to being a regular viewer -- except during the you-know-what storyline. Something tells me that ED firing may have to do with her salary. Let's face it, they resigned the fab Jess Walton this year -- I'm sure she wasn't cheap. (The show has a number of serious veterans, which is good.) However, it's just not sustainable. Unfortunately, someone had to go. Let's look at the list of vet characters played by veteran actors: Victor, Nikki, Jack, Neil, Dru, Kay, Jill, Brad, Phyllis, Michael, Paul, Nick, Sharon and Lauren (even though she's not on contract). The only character that could've been swapped with Ashley would be Brad. Frankly, I'd rather see Brad, Victoria and Colleen, than another Victor/Ashley/Nikki retread.

Ashley hadn't had a real good storyline in years. Even LML picked up where Alden and Smith left off and made Ashley sort of an afterthought rather than a complete character on the Y&R canvas. ED is a fine actress without question. It shall be anyone's gain to get her.

There is great speculation of course that ED is headed for DAYS. But her saying that she wants to spend more time with her children carries a lot of weight to it. I wouldn't be surprised if he takes her time to explore her options.

      Call me crazy but I still think there’s hope for them. Their scenes today proved it to me. I loved how they were there for each other and talked about what’s going on with their fathers. And how Belle helped Shawn get a lead on Kevin’s roommate. Their relationship, at the moment, seems so natural. In a way, it reminds me of how Sami/Rafe were after they got divorced. And while I do like Shawn/Jada and EJ/Belle as couples, I’m looking forward to going along for the ride and (hopefully) seeing Shawn and Belle find their way back to each other. And I still think there’s hope for Gabi and JJ too. I don’t see them as an endgame couple but I do enjoy them together. Javi was a pain in the ass though and kinda messed up their scenes. And also messed up Gabi’s reunion with Arianna. Speaking of Arianna, I’m glad that she’s back in Salem. And she did have a point about Gabi and Javi. But yeah, Javi’s still a pain in the ass lol his scenes with Leo weren’t bad though, surprisingly. Mostly because they were centered around him and not Leo. That definitely wouldn’t have happened a few months ago It’s too soon to make any judgments about the actress playing Arianna but I’m looking forward to seeing her storyline. And to seeing the interactions that she has with other characters on the canvas. Hopefully, she won’t be friendly with the guy who tortured and sexually assaulted her fathers.  I also enjoyed Julie’s reunion with Doug III. Her being so stubborn and resistant today was classic Julie. I still kinda feel bad for Doug III though. 
    • I have a new storyline for the "diverse" 7th Heaven reboot! The WASP family has a foster child called Gilberta. She's an AA kid whose mother is addicted to crack marijuana! The devil's seed! Either way, she's been integrated into this WASP family and shock/horror, Marijuana Mommy comes back! What will happen? Well, I will tell you - first it seems like Marijuana Mommy has her [!@#$%^&*] together and she gets her kid back! The WASPs are sad. Then it turns out that Marijuana Mommy is still on the dope and selling tricks talking to strange men on the corner! Plus, foster child (Gilberta) talks about how much she loves the WASPs. The episode ends in tears with Gilberta back with the WASPs! Also, Marijuana Mommy goes away, acknowledging how much better parents the WASPs are. The end. Why haven't The Great American Family hired me yet? I can feel the audience will watch this and cry a lot of tears.
    • I’m thinking Taylor’s resurrection a few months later caused the show to change course and cut her return short. If true, I wonder what the original plan for this storyline would have been? Amnesiac Ridge getting Morgan pregnant again?

    • re the penthouse.  I can't recall exactly but I think that it was used  for several years. Leslie moved to the cottage. Was that when she married Rick or before? Anyway, maybe Tracey took up residence? Don't know whether she bought it from Lesley, or they just re-used the set pretending it was a different place.
