Y&R Discussion: Week of April 16th


Recommended Posts

  • Members

Preach it!! Brad never fails to leave me with my jaw hanging open when he starts moralizing to and about other people. There are a lot of hypocrites on Y&R just like there are a lot of whores, but Brad takes the prize on both fronts. I love it when Jack and Nick go off on him. It makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.

of course she's happy. Phyllis admited how much she resents Sharon and is loving that she is the one that will be targeted now. The only reason why she stopped teh blackmail bc she felt guilty and she didnt want to draw any more attention to herself following Dru's death. She doesnt give a DAMN about Sharon.

I was googling Brad Carlton and ended up on the Wikipedia page about the character, and it had a link to the page for the character of Brad's first wife Lisa Mansfield; and dang this gal needs to return and torture poor little Bradley/G.I. George some more....... <_<

It reminds me of the Jan/Shawn cage storyline from Days......

These Victoria/Phyllis scenes are so weak. Amelia just can't hold her own. Michelle & Phyllis are just crapping all over both.

Since when does Victoria beg anyone else for info about her hubby? She looks to be on the verge of tears.

JT finally told Victoria the ruth. She can't be that shocked. This reveal is gonna fall flat.

Looks like Noah is back to hating Phyllis.

Lily is as dumb as dirt. I can't beleive she's Dru's daughter. Dru went to war when she thought Neil was looking at Carmen. Lily finds porn on Daniel's locked ocmouter and buys his excused provided by Amber. Wake up and smell the drool.

Don't count Vicki out yet. She rips into Brad real good Monday and the Noah outburst really isn't that big.

I don't think Lily bought that bullshit Daniel, Cane and Amber sold her. I'm glad Neil called someone about going to a meeting because he sure needs to go to one.

Noah really should have gotten therapy after Cassie died along with his parents. Noah is dealing with stuff the same way he saw his parents do it. Nick pulled away from him and Sharon and then after Sharon's kidnapping (which Noah doesn't know about) she kinda freaked out. That kid needs as much help as he can get and all the changes going on in his life isn't good for him either. Mom and dad both getting married not long after getting a divorce, he has a little sister, and then little sister and stetp-mom gets kindapped. That's a lot for an adult to deal with, but a kid Noah's age...it's too much for him and then the biggie: mom almost dies while her best friend does. Poor kid. :(

I can't wait till Smilin Jack learns the truth about Brad and Sharon...

I was rolling my eyes when Victoria and Brad were getting all hot in the office, only to burst out laughing when her butt was told what she should have knowns from the phrase, "Drop your pants". Sharon only sees Jack as an escape from Brad, but that isn't working for her...She wants to have the prestige and the other lova on the side.

Anyone in scenes with Amelia outshines her...She can't carry her own with Melody Thomas Scott, or Michelle Stafford...

I thought Lily was skeptical too. Amber's story wasn't holding all that much water. The big give away is that Daniel paid to join that site, so no matter how he got the link that's going to raise a red flag. She knows somethings not right, even if she isn't quite sure how deep Daniel is into all this and how much of it was Caine.

Finally Brad's house of cards is falling down. I hope the whole Newman family screws him over.

WTF!? What a difference a week makes...

I LOVED the episode prior to Dru's "prayer"/Funeral/whatsoever. The funeral itself was okay although below Y&R standards. But as I feared it was shortlived joy. Ever since the whole current week has been a downwards spiral with Friday being a runners up for "LML needs to go like yesterday".

Was I watching GH? I really think it must have been GH. Phyllis who pushed Sharon and Dru more or less off the cliff, is declared town saint because of some miraculously appeared photos which show Sharon "pushing" Dru off the cliff. Did Sharon or Dru for taht matter start the blackmail? Did anyone of those two start the cliff fight?

This like GH's Jason being a perfect citizen doing his job - which includes killing people but hey never mind. The writing on Y&R is so contrieved and I feel totally insulted by that crap. F*ck off LML!

Didn't care for anything else. Oh well, I thought it was ridiculous how dumb Cane is - he didn't even really question Amber's plea to save Daniel's neck. Y&R sucks.

    • Well, Claire did rig Rick's test results, but it was to flunk. They actually managed to get his correct results back after they were thrown into Cedar's furnace...I think? Everyone knew Claire changed them and Rick passed so that rewrite never made sense.   I agree. Pratt always seems "edgy" on screen (and her Locker Room interview prooved that it came from her personality.) I liked Claire causeing trouble and love Meta ringing her beads. Its just too bad that Abby left and they kinda just forgot Claire existed. 
    • Oh so they did sleep together. The retcon was just the medical boards? That makes sense. I think Susan Pratt, while a good actress, was just an unlikeable presence onscreen and soaps wrote to that most of the time. There was some potential for more with her when she returned in that stint, as Pratt was at least interesting to watch and caused some conflict for the stifled Bauers. Instead of pairing her with Alan and then disappearing I might have had her hook up with Danny. I think there was a lot of flirtation with Bolger's Philip, but they never crossed the line.
    • I haven't seen Melchior in the role, but it would be astounding if she's worse than Linn. Her rivalry with Stephanie was sidelined IMO because Linn was one of the few actors who didn't have chemistry with, nor raise her game, when paired with Susan Flannery. To be fair, she did show some signs of life in scenes opposite Darlene Connelly, but way too little too late. It feels like Bell finally woke up after the Thorne switchover and sidelined the Kristin character with Mick to 1 or 2 appearances a week. As a result, the show improved by leaps and bounds after she was inexplicably at the center of the show for most of 1989. Margo is so much more enjoyable when not tied to that albatross. Even Clarke is watchable with less Kristin interaction. She can't exit stage left soon enough. As for the new Thorne, I agree that Norcross feels like a Forrester a lot more than Thrachta, even if the latter is a better actor.
    • The cast said that scenes were filmed over a few weeks, with a preplanned hiatus in the middle, and it was all out of order.  I would *guess* that they used Chandler when they could get him? They also had to work around Leo Howard getting married around the time these episodes were filmed, but I guess they worked it out since Tate appeared.
    • Maybe there was a scheduling conflict or something. He still has the full time 9-5 in Atlanta, right? Julie was there. Idk if Maggie’s gonna be a part of it though 
    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
    • Why am I only now hearing about what happened in L.A., lol?
    • While I agree that Reeves is Jennifer, I honestly do prefer Cady McClain in the role, as I feel she had/has a wider range of acting capabilities than I feel Reeves has. It's the strength of an actor, ultimately, for me, regardless of how I feel about Reeves' political/social views (which I widely disagree with). Plus, not to mention, they costumed Reeves like an old-fashioned frumpy farm/Moron wife, while McClain had some fashion-forward moments.
    • Wait - so no Will, Jack, or Jen at John's funeral? That’s just weird. What was the point of bringing them back then? Did Julie and Maggie even show up? I mean, seriously.
