I can only hope that the show will eventually do JT and Victoria. I loved the scenes with them dancing today. They are both way more interesting together, but I don't mind if it takes another year or two to happen. The scene I want to see most is Victoria finding out that Brad slept with Sharon right after their wedding. I hope she goes Newman on his ass. He's dragged her into "Brad's world" and all the lies and danger that goes with it and meanwhile he's all about Sharon.

I'm still way more interested in Phick than another go around with Jack, but I do wish the show would give Phyllis and Nick a good story together. I hate it that Jack is leading Sharon on when he's really not that into her.

I liked the idea of the reliquary story just because it's original. The idea of another WTD makes me really want to zzzzzzzz. But I have to say the execution is beyond boring. I wish they had ended it after they got Sharon back from the kidnappers. I wonder if whatever is special about the relequiry is going to set of another branch of this story.

I like Cane. He's cute, I hope they use his character well.

Loving the return of the Fast Reply fucntion :D

Anyway, on to Y&R:

-The show is becoming the Colleen hour. This must have been how the fans of the 80s/90s felt about Christine :lol: Colleen is the new "Bug!" The differences is that Adrienne Leon can act, while Laurlee, on the other hand, couldn't. But even if you have the ability, seeing you all the time gets old. I used to like Colleen. Sure, she was boring as paint, but I didn't hate her. That's changed, now that she's the slut of GC :lol: (Not really, but yeah).

-Always loving me some DAILY :D They're nice to see, now that we actually get to see just them. The spark is back!

-Enjoyed Victoria and JT, like always. Who knew two of the most boring characters on Y&R would entertain me while together?

-Jana brings Kevin down, IMO. Last week, when Keven told JT about Colleen's crush on Adrian, I thought we were getting the old Kevin back. But now, he's back to being nothing, but a prop to Jana. Why?

-The highlight of today's show was definitely Pheila/Lauren/Michael/Paul. Lauren is taking no prisoners when it comes to Pheila, and who could blame her? I was surprised Lauren didn't slap that sh*t out of Pheila. I thought it was coming when she sat next to her. Then, once back in Fenmore's room, Lauren had her breakdown. Tracy did a magnificent job.

-A day without Amber? My God! Hell has frozen over!

Tracey and Christian did a marvellous job with their angst today.

Why is Maggie so stalkerish?

Daniel was loads of hot today. Looks like someone gave their teacher a little more than an apple. I bet I know one little girl who's gonna be getting an "A+."

How cute did Christian look with little Fen :wub:

Oh, please. Tracey can't even rise to crap she's given, much less stuff that's written well.

Kimberlin Brown is where it's at. Fortunately, she doesn't have to play out this crap, and someday she can bring back HER character untarnished.

Regardless, I hope the storyline has something that ends well... So far we have a repeat of a storyline we saw before (Carmen possibly not being dead, reminds me too much of the Cameron Kirsten storyline)...we have a storyline where they botched up history (Kay and Jill) and we have one tha should have ended a long time ago (Brad and his past).

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?
