Y&R Discussion: Week of April 2


Recommended Posts

  • Members

I was home sick yesterday and I caught Passions on TV. So, those of you who say that Y&R was like Passions yesterday, I can assure you that Passions, with the Teresa/Ethan stuff, was *better.* And more realistic. Oh, and I hope a soap snaps up Lindsay Korman Hartley after Passions is done. But that's for another thread.

FauxLily did, like, her Primal Scream of Total, Like, Agony. "Mahm! MAHHHHHHHHHHM!" VR must have been, like, "That's my send-off?!"

The sad thing is that the Phyllis, Sharon, Drucilla interaction was actually one of the best parts of Y&R in recent years. I loved that threesome of hate and envy and friendship and strategic alliance. Phyllis & Dru were once the Supercouple of Hate & Rivalry.

I'm going to miss the Phyllis/Dru/Sharon interaction too. I think Y&R is going to have a different feel from now on. I'm not saying it'll be worse, but I'm going to miss the old era.

Today was pretty good. I felt for everyone involved. It was awful seeing Sharon take that fall. I think the actresses are what made it real because the set itself was cheesy as hell and very distracting.

I think we got a clue that Nick lied about the paternity through the flashbacks. He had a deer caught in the headlights look when Phyllis was going on about Michael and Lauren's "betrayal".

Victoria is beyond petty. Ugh.

When it rains, it's gonna POUR hard on Phyllis....Her world is slowly coming undone..and Steph, you and I both know that Phyllis is going to be in a world of pain when the truth about Summer does come out.

I do like how Phyllis didn't balk when Nick told her that Lauren had Summer with her. But I know that will all be washed away and Phyllis will go back to not talking to her.

Oh, and if Brad's reaction to the news isn't the BIGGEST clue ever for Victoria, then she is as Dumb as I've always thought she's been. The minute Sharon's name was mentioned, Brad went into 'scared' lover mode.

O/T....Thanks Steph.

Okay, just answer me this....who was more annoying. Lily with her high pitched screams or Noah who kept whining to watch tv, make a phone call, etc, or better yet Brad, who thinks HE is the only one that needs to know everything?

I will say Brad, because he was forever cooking my last grit demanding this info and that info.. Would he even be sweating that hard for Sharon if he hadn't have boinked her brains out in NY? I doubt it.

I am glad that the previews have Phyllis going to the one person that she knows will have her back: Michael...She's going to NEED someone after Neil gets through with her.

If I were Michael, I'd tell Phyllis to go f*ck herself.

Maybe it's just me, but I would've jumped in after my mom. Or at the very least got in Phyllis' face. Act like Dru's daughter dammit!

I think Brad genuinely loves Sharon. I wish Victoria weren't in the way...

I don't feel any compassion for Lily what so ever..... I mean its just way to dramatic.

At least Dru went out in style.... god I'll miss The Fab Drucilla Winters!

Damn you Sharon for surviving! :P

Michelle Stafford, wow she is rocking these episodes! I just want to hug Phyllis! I mean she should feel this way.... but it so was not her fault they fell. But man. Michelle is playing the material so well.

I support you Phyllis to the bitter end!

I know deep down you wish that skank Sharon had met her maker ;) Its ok. I won't tell.

God I am so bad.

Vee, you know me all too well.

    • Has anyone ever totted up how many women on GL slept with both father and son(s)? Reva gets a lot of crap for it but she's far from the only one: Claire Beth Blake Olivia Dina Did I miss anyone?  
    • I think Long was probably planning to have Claire suffer from Post Partum, but she left the writing staff shortly after Claire had Michelle so that element didn't get explored. And I always assumed that when Claire returned in the late 90s/early 00s.. that she was realizing that she messed up by not staying a part of Michelle's life and became resentful/bitter over her previous choices.  That was my theory.  
    • Jenn was a huge part of the success of Days back in the day, and that contribution shouldn't be dismissed.  With that said, I do think her and Jack's time on the show should remain as occasional visits/drop ins. When Missy returns to play Jenn, Jenn is back to being Jenn.   Jenn in her glory days was head strong, fiesty, and was a live wire.... and her scenes with Jack on Friday was classic Jenn with Jack being the voice of reason.   It was the foundation of their relationship back in the day.    
    • Claire was always tightly wound, I think what Long was going to do is to throw the three into this impossible situation with no bad guys, Mo, knowing how to take care of kids from growing up but unable to conceive and Claire, who didnt know how to take care of kids and was totally focused on her career, gets knocked up.  Ryder took Claire off the deep end as a convenient way to make story for characters he wasnt interested in (though Pratt blames McTavish) with little effort. It was later explained to be a brain tumor (though why was she a bitch again when she returned?) \ Claire did sleep with Rick, she was his first!
    • I'm sorry, truly I am, but this literally made me LOL. Tempting fate, much?

    • Oh, I have very little doubt that Missy feels some way personally and privately.  Donna was just saying she actively spoke out against Days in public in reference to the gay storylines, which she did not. I don't have super strong feeling about Jen one way or another.  She was always a side character to me.  I still think Missy is Jen regardless of her stupid beliefs.
    • I hated the swap-over; Clayton Norcross, to me, was far superior in the role of Thorne than Jeff Trachta ever was. And the recast left me disliking Thorne when he was the superior son to me. As for Teri Ann Linn, I feel like she got the raw deal. Kristen was very clear as a forefronting character, especially in her rivalry with Stephanie, and it feels like she was dropped off for Felicia, and they never returned it. Not to mention the subpar recast with Tracy Melchior in 2001. Someone like Brenda Epperson (ex-Ashley, Y&R) would've been more suited for that role.
    • I just remember when Leo was marrying Craig (?), Greg Rikaart stated a line and made direct eye-contact with Melissa Reeves, and when the camera cut to her, she looked away.

       Rikaart had a mission that day, and he succeeded.
