Y&R Bells are back in charge!

Nick knew deep down his marriage with Sharon was over and wanted to start a new chapter with a new child with someone else. He wanted both a distraction and a child to fill Cassie's void. Sharon and her indecisive nature at the time left a cold impression on him. That would be my way to solve that.

Well, I'd like to see them write any sympathy for him in that scenario. It would be dramatic but would be suicide for Nick's character and I am not sure it would accepted by the masses. We would have to believe that Nick would be willing to further destroy the feelings of Sharon and Noah in favor of a new life. I don't see it happening any time in the near future but who knows. We shall see.

I am all for more angst for Phick. Like, really, really soon!

Y&R's greatest asset-long term characters-can also be a liability as Nikki,Victor,Brad,Jack have been through just about everything.

It's hard to take a new romance seriously when a character has been married 5 times!

I think those characters need to be prominent but not in romantic or repetitious business stories-a challenge for sure.

How about Jack dealing with the return of Keemo-cast a sexy Asian actor in his 30's-maybe Keemo has become a player like Jack was back in the day.

Or Dina returns and tries to re-establish her relationship with her kids.

Victor's brother Matt is tragically killed and his son/daughter is taken in by the Newmans who become surrogate parents.Maybe the mom is unstable and seeks revenge.

Victoria's baby is stolen by Tricia Dennison.

In other words, use these characters rich pasts to generate story rather than repeat stuff .

I'd also love it if Nick's memory slowly came back and he realized that Summer wasn't his, that'd be classic soap opera fair. But I feel like that "blood test doesn't match" storyline has been done so many times. Although Y&RWorldTurner's whole plot, particularly with the focus on Nick's reasoning behind keeping this secret, is juicy as hell, I'd love it if Nick remembered, kept it a secret, but didn't remember if he destroyed the documents or not.

Maybe he tries to find them everywhere and Adam walks in on him one day searching for them like a mad-man and becomes suspicious. Then, Adam happens upon one sheet while searching for Nick's old business contracts to get ideas for his own business ventures that pique his interest but doesn't reveal the whole truth. He calls the DNA center and finds it out for himself and tells Phyllis. This, hopefully, will trigger the old INTERESTING Phyllis who'll be pretty disgusted with Nick and slowly become more drawn to Victor's other son.

This secret may also play into Nick and Victor's crumbling relationship. He'll find out he's selfish like his father after all and fall pretty hard.

Restless Style will self-destruct and, for goodness sakes, Amber will be out of a job and will have to leave town!!

After all, this whole storyline should be about getting Amber out of town.

    • I don't really care about what the men are wearing, or not wearing.   What I care about is focusing on the writing and character development for each of the male characters. Andre really doesn't have a lot of character development that sets him apart from the other male characters except that he seems content to be degraded and mistreated by the elitist Dani.  I would like to know why a good looking younger guy like Andre would willingly be at the mercy of an emotional vampire such as Dani.   Martin, on the other hand, seems to have decent character development.. and it is partly due to how the actor chooses to recite his lines.  Martin was raised in a very privileged household and probably went to the best schools... so it makes sense that he would come across as thinking he was above everyone else.  Most people raised in a upper class situation as the Duprees would view themselves as better than others (it's the same trait Dani seems to employ on those she feels superior to). It makes me wonder how Nicole came out of that family being so warm and nurturing  when her family dynamics seemed very appearance oriented.    
    • I know, right. I after just re-reading the thread, I'm like ooppph!
    • Lulu and Dante were divorced before her coma, but she was still in love with him.  He just didn't know.  They haven't been married for years.    I was pretty mixed about Lulu getting involved when it was just a child out there in the world, but now that she realizes it's Gio I am okay with her telling Dante.  It also is her son's sibling.  I still think it's BLQ's choice though.  Lulu is in a rough spot because I think Dante will be mad if she keeps it a secret and Chase, Brook, Lois, etc will be mad if Lulu tells. Without veering too far into the classic area of the show, I had no problem with Robin telling AJ about Michael.  It may not have *exactly* been her place, but she could see how Carly was manipulating the entire situation.  It also ruined her romantic relationship with Jason for good.  Jason and Sonny were furious with Robin and practically ran her out of town, so I think we were to believe she was the bad guy.  It was a bit out of character for Robin to spill, but KMc was leaving the show.
    • Rewatching/binging THE X-FILES Seasons 1 and 2 (almost done). So much fun re-experiencing, especially re-discovering some of the monster-of-the-week stories. THE WEST WING Seasons 1 and 2 as well - so good to rewatch now with 20 years more life experience and understanding. ALSO.... lol FOOTBALLERS' WIVES Season 3, which is just as bonkers as I remember and so so so so fun. I had forgotten about that iconic season cliffhanger. Good times. Excited to rewatch Seasons 4 and 5 since I remember so very little about them. Hope you've been enjoying!
    • @Toups Tyler Topits listed in alpha order with the breakdown writers 5/12 Monday episode. O'Connor still listed as both breakdown and script writer. Kreizman wrote today's script.
    • Marland was long gone by this point.  He quit in either August/September 1982. I think it was due to letting the actress play out her contract and use her for party scenes and/or scenes with Phillip/Justin.   I was surprised she was still on in June 1983 myself, because I figured she had been written out before Pam Long joined the writing staff. Thankfully, having episodes uploaded during this period on Spauldingfield YT site has helped to connect some of the dots.  It looks as though Pam Long starts the first week or so of May 1983.. and in those first few weeks: Morgan and Evie were both written off and Lillian/Mindy/Billy/Beth/Annabelle all come onto the show.
