I agree with RE: Kevin. I'm so in love the character. If only they would allow him to get away from his freaking mother. I swear Gloria is what destroyed Michael and Kevin IMO. Before her they at least had a chance of being decent people and to some extent they are. But they're also tainted because of her antics and her overall dirtyness/sluttiness.

Kevin has been great the last few days. If nothing else at least he's making me laugh. I no longer watch daily, so I'm not sure which day this was, but when he wrote the email to Janna and talked about what he wanted to do to her. That scene had me laughing pretty hard and then I realized, this is Kevin, maybe he's not just kidding. :unsure:

I wonder if David and Phyllis might be hooking up in the future. That scene they had was kind of interesting.

I kind of wanted to see Nikki win the Senate race, but I admit, I assumed it would be Jack.

I give LML credit for at least coming up with ideas for actually stories. With a couple of the soaps I watch it seems like all people do is talk about their relationships over and over. At least Y&R tries to give us story and action. I just wish character wasn't sacrificed to do it.

The Nick stuff was really quite sad. Just his reaction to Cassie's death was heart breaking. Hearing that your daughter died again for the second time has got to be hard. Josh did a good job in those scenes. The only reason I'm watching Y and R is for Nick/Sharon. That and I want to see Phyl in major pain over the fact that Nick doesn't remember her. Phyl in pain is always good.

"Sharon, make Phyliss go away!" :lol:

Lol at that last line...classic. However I can't wait for Phick to reunite!

BTW I LOVE those quotes in your sig! Really full of emotion.

EDIT: OMG todays episode ROCKED! Loved Nikki in her scenes today. Especially with Nicholas. OMG how much have I missed Joshua Morrow? And his acting today was SUPERB! When they told him about Cassie I broke down in tears when he started fighting and crying.

And Phyllis....God MS blows me away everyday. Her reaction to Nikki's message was hilarious. How she deleted the first 2. And then just like THAT she turns off the humor/comedy and cues the drama. Awesome facial expression. Just great everything. I can't wait to see more of this. I think Y&R has done this coming back thing the RIGHT way. Especially having Nikki not believe the doctor are first. Just great stuff.

Nick's crying made me laugh. Sorry.

Can't believe I feel sorry for Phyllis but I do.

Gloria needs to get the electric chair (I need to see her DIE)... and I'm anti-capital punishment

I loved Nikki and Nick. That was incredible. What election? I was stunned by Nick thinking Cassie was still alive and then Nikki telling him that she passed away. JM has improved so much as an actor. (The turning point actually was Cassie's death.) Loved Phyllis deleting Nikki's messages. I'm so glad that Nikki called multiple times to tell her about Nick. That is the "real" Nikki, not the heartless wench that she's been the past few months. Nick kissing Sharon in front of Jack! Excellent. My heart broke for Phyllis. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. This could be a great storyline.

I loved todays episode. The real Victor is back. I loved Jack and Victor's argument and Jack getting the last word. I also liked David and Victor's fight...this Victor/Nikki/David storyline may actually be interesting. Everyone has done excellent acting with this storyline especially Nick and Phyllis. I could even tolerate Amber today..espcially since she's digging a hole for herself literally and figuratively.

I didn't realize how much I really missed Sharon and Nick until the scene with him describing his memory of watching her cook dinner with no make-up on and her hair pulled back.

They just have a great chemistry that's lacking with their current others.

      And not since. I recall it was quite small for a house that size. And I don't know why you would walk down a narrow corridor to get to the main living area. I hate when the sets on soaps don't have a logical layout! As for Andre his clothing is fashion forward and suitable for his character.He ain't gonna wear no blazer!

      The last I remember seeing Ben, he was divorcing Amanda. He came to tell Evie that he still loved her, but was leaving town so that Amanda wouldn't blame Evie for his divorcing her. I'm not exactly sure when, but Evie doesn't leave town until sometime after Nola and Quint's engagement ball. I'm not sure if she leaves before or after Justin leaves in Sept(?) of '83. I grew to like Helena when she became friends with Vanessa, once she's edging her way out of Quint's life.

      It sure was!  With respect, how does that make sense?  These men are young, I don't see that.

      I hope this played better than it sounds, because I'm imagining two separate scenes (the attack by Arnie, and later Charles getting shot). In my mind, it should have been a fluid single sequence. I wonder if or how often "bastard" was uttered in this scene. Fare thee well, Christopher Reeve. I've said it before, but pop culture's gain was daytime's definite loss. Imagine seeing HIM day after day, year after year, decade after decade, conceivably until they stopped producing soaps in NYC.   Well, that answers my "bastard" question. Good lord, the roads of Rosehill are packed with high-strung drivers and/or pedestrians. More sequences that I hope played better than they sound.

      I think Ben had already left while under Marland and only returned briefly to reconcile with Eve. The whole thing confuses me as I thought for a long time that Eve left the show to go be with him and that was when they reconciled, but it seems like he returned, they got back together, then he left and maybe they were still together until she left to join him? I have no idea.  It does seem like the interim writers were using some characters like Justin and Helena who were quickly dumped under Kobe/Long, which is a shame. Helena is one of those characters who likely always had a shelf life but Rose Alaio was such a vibrant screen presence, if Kobe/Long had just been patient, she likely would have fit in well in the Reva era.

      Also, the lawsuit story was not the right story to bring Naomi and Bill into a court battle since those types of lawsuits are usually resolved via settlements.

      I know that Sara did eventually become Carrie's therapist, but I was curious if the show had her make comments regarding Carrie's stunts of making it seem as though Justin was cheating on Jackie.  Given that Justin cheated on Sara with both Jackie and Brandy, I wondered if it was wise of her to counsel Carrie given the conflict of interest involved. @DRW50I think once Adam/Sara end up married.. Marland didn't see any reason to explore Sara's personal life after the actor playing Adam was released.  I know that Sara lasts until at least Christmas 1982 on the show.. but I don't think she ended up staying on for very long into 1983. The period between Marland quitting and Pam Long starting was the perfect time to clean house on characters that had outgrown their usefulness  (i.e. Ben, Evie, Sara, Jennifer, Morgan).. and tying up stories started by Marland that were too complex (Mona Enright, Mark/Jennifer/Amanda triangle).

      Unpopular opinion:  The focus on the soap opera tropes over the mysteries and crimes was partly what did the show in.  Also, featuring characters not involved in the legal, police, and criminal elements also hurt the show and took away what made it unique. Featuring characters like Jody, Raven, Sky, etc hurt the show long term.  The show ABCified starting in 1976/1977 and then went through a youthification period starting in 1981.
