Thanks, DruRocks. That scene was full of great Dru lines!

"You don't give a good kitty about my son!"

"Wild horses couldn't pull me out of Genoa City!"

"Oh, no. I got a problem with you, BETCH! I got a problem with you!"

"That's right! RUN! Call the cops! See if I care, B-E-T-C-H!!!!"

Regarding Y&R's dialogue, I used to think it was weird how everybody talked like they all had Ivy League degrees and read the thesaurus as a hobby. I mean, everybody. It was like the writers were trying to one up each other and see who can write the most verbose script. So, I like seeing some characters talk like normal working class or normal young people (at least as real TV can write young people). But, I wouldn't mind characters like Victor throwing around the word EGREGIOUS every now and then. LOL! The dialogue really was something that set Y&R apart form the other soaps.

I love my girl Dru, but karma definitely bit her in the tail. Actually, I'm glad this happened to her, so that will be one less thing people can say she didn't pay for. LOL!

Poor Eileen Davidson got a crappy exit from the show. This whole set up was too hasty. And in their attempt to make Jack look like an SOB, it just made me hate Ashley for thinking that her brother could possibly commit murder and that she has to go a thousand miles away because she can't deal with him anymore. Puh-leeze! We're officially down to an Abbott family of 1. ***weep, weep***

David Chow is another character to add to my annoying list. I get a kick out of my mama calling him Lujack.

Jana & E. O'Brien continue to impress me. (Serial killah, anyone? :D)

Still don't like M. Sullivan & D. Chow. Chow being The Winters' neighbor? :blink: Sublet? Looks like he's staying in GC for a while.

Yes, the friendship is back! Drucilla & Sharon that is. :D

Oh my goodness! Stop the presses! Tell everyone u know! Lily was smarter than Colleen today! :lol: The majority of Lily/Colleen scenes were just filler. I hope A. Korbel ends up slicing dumbed down Colleen's neck & .....

Cane is very good looking, but is D. Goodard a good actor? Time will tell.

I'm slowly becoming intrigued by Amber. (I loved how the wasted Sally Spectra pronounced her name: Ambah :lol:)

I loving Michael! Grabbing the deranged, evil animal Sheila by the throat was the best scene of the ep. My hatred for Sheila reached a new high today when she yelled for help as Michael answered his cell phone & it was Lauren on the other line. :angry: Heed Paul's adive, Sheila: Shut up! :angry::lol:

Sheila throwing out all the food Paul shouldn't have given her in the 1st place out of the cage was :blink:

Writing: Looks like either Janice Ferri Esser or Natalie Minardi Slater wrote the breakdown & Cherie Bennett & Jeff Gottesfeld wrote the script. Bennett & Gottesfeld are very good writers. Bill Bell Jr., Steve Kent & Barbara Bloom were desperate for changes on Y&R, so about 3 months after joining the team as creative consultant, LM Latham became head writer. Then about 6 months after that, Latham become EP. I still think it was a good decision to fire JF Smith. K. Alden shouldn't have quit; she knows Y&R's history better than Latham. But please Brian Frons, don't make JF Smith GH's new head writer. :unsure:

Grade (1/11/07): Weak B

Ratings are in and Y&R rose another two points to a 4.5 weekly average. Last years weekly average was a 4.4. The good thing is that it was Katherine's big reveal. Hopefully the writers see that we enjoy seeing Katherine and Jill and give the Chancellor's more to do! Now they need to bring back Billy and Mac, originals of course.

OMG, Cane is a hottie! I need Lily and Colleen both to go take a flying leap, ASAP. I love Dru's horror of seeing that her clothes had been ripped to shreads. David Chow is gonna have my girl Dru bouncing off some rubber walls by the time he's done with her. Sheila has me LMAO calling Lauren "the little woman" and goading Michael.

Currently watching, and almost half-way through. It's not that bad today :)

I love how Pheila gets to Michael. Michelle Stafford does a great job in this role!

Glad to see Lauren finally get out of that damn house.

Love the Dru/Sharon friendship and I'm surprised it still continues.

I hate Amber in Genoa City! There's no point to this girl being here. AHH! She and the professor are total snoozeworthy.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out who the mysterious Cane is... :rolleyes:

Hate David Chow, and it's not the good hate either. I don't love to hate David, like AMC fans hated David Hayward. Poor character...

I'll stay clear of hot waters today and limit my post down.

Poor Eileen Davidson - what a lame exit. She so much deserved better. I mean we get flashbacks for any sh*t these days but no real flashbacks of decade-long characters (see also Jill/Kay)?

Again, I'll restrain myself. But this David character!? He was murdered on AMC right? I can totally get why...

LMAO over Jana picturing Prof Ho-bell as a serial killer. I knew why I liked her intitially, she's sometimes just too much, yet overall still Latham best creature.

Michael Graz/Daniel sported a new look. And he looked good (too old/mature for Lilly though) - memo to Thad Luckinbill: ask for help, that "moustache" is hideous...
