Members YRBB Posted April 30, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 30, 2008 I loved Ashley Bashioum's Mac.... but I'm not sure I'd want her back, not unless the whole Jill/Kay thing was undone and the whole Mac/Billy thing (original actors please!) was finally resolved. All those years of them wanting each other to boil down to nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted April 30, 2008 Members Share Posted April 30, 2008 IA. Nothing against the actress but I couldn't get into her Mac at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rhythmchyc Posted April 30, 2008 Members Share Posted April 30, 2008 Yeah, I couldn't get into Rachael Kimsey either. @ DeeDee I remember during her brief return before her permanent replacement, Ashley was in the kitchen in the Abbot mansion with JT when Colleen came back into town (perhaps for Colleen's "welcome back" party?) and he was in between those two. She was kinda flirting with him but seemed to be holding back. Also, earlier on when she was introduced, in her scene with Billy during prom night when they were at the Chancellor's mansion, it was a tender moment. But I don't think she gave it her all. I believed she was falling in love with him. But there was something missing. It could be just me but that how I felt about her. She'll always be Mac to me, though. The recasts played her whiny but, then again, the writing changed dramatically during that time so they could've been more than capable with that role. When will this show revisit the juiciness of a girl vs. girl action a la Diane/Phyllis? They can't even do that with Victoria/Sabrina because they're a couple of wusses. And they could do it with Phyllis/Sharon but I'd love some new blood to get in a bitch slap or two. What's a soap opera without a bitch slap or two? Oh, I forgot. Y&R!

Members MoTheGreat Posted April 30, 2008 Members Share Posted April 30, 2008 I thought Lily vs Amber was going to give us that. Or Lily vs Chleo. But once again we'll need a mini Dru to do such a thing. & with CK in the role the storyline was more like woe is me. If we had mini Dru the storyline would be more like bitch test me again. Do you know who my mother is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted April 30, 2008 Members Share Posted April 30, 2008 I was going to mention the potential of Amber against Lily and agree that Christel can fight her own battles as well as Gloria can be altruistic. But even Amber has nothing on the women of Y&R's history. I can't remember when she actually put her foot down on something without sounding whiny or put her foot down on something that actually meant something. As much of a moral wasteland Diane was, she still had more of a humanity to her than Amber does. And that's because the writers were friggin' good. I don't understand why these people who get paid as much as they do can't create fleshy, HUMAN characters! Despite being a bad actress on OLTL Alderson, I still root for her and Cole to be together, even to run away; no matter how bad an idea it is. Y&R's writing these characters as if they don't want audience to care about them anymore. And it's really working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted April 30, 2008 Members Share Posted April 30, 2008 See the Amber that was over at B&B vs mini Dru can work. Just like a mini Dru vs Chleo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted May 1, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 1, 2008 I have been enjoying this week, but the show is still messed up. And, WTF? Amber wants Daniel to move in? Enjoyed Katherine remembering Phillip though and the scene between Jack and Sharon, as they reminisced about the Phyllis/Nick affair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 3, 2008 Administrator Share Posted May 3, 2008 Anyone know the name of the actress who plays Skye? Is she short-term, recurring or contract? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted May 3, 2008 Members Share Posted May 3, 2008 This week was an improvement on last week. I am loving the renewed sense of Jill....she needs even more episodes. Jess Walton is sexy and a terrific actress. Time to give her the A storyline she's been in desperate need of. I am loving how Adam does everything in his power to belittle the lame Sabrina with her French bag of b.s. Adam is a fantastic character and Chris Engen is a great actor. Kudos to whoever found him, he's awesome. I am also loving Adam's galpal Skye...a smart, somewhat bitchy woman. FINALLY. I am loving the hints of the magic that is Victor and Nikki. When lame Sabrina broke up their friendly 'thanks for my cell phone' exchange I wanted to break my TV. The problem is that a happy Victor and Nikki is a boring Victor and Nikki...perhaps they need to stay broken up...but have a hot affair that they both regret and conceal, I'd like that. I am loving the destruction of David Chow. Vincent Irrizarry is a very convincing gambling addict and Don Diamont is beyond fun, finally Brad is back to being the supporting bastard de jour as he used to be! However, the show needs to do itself a favor and get rid of the entire Fisher/Baldwin clan. The only one who gets to survive is Lauren and baby Fenmore...Christian LeBlanc has become such an albatross to the show, Michael Baldwin seems to have run his course, such a shame. Ditto Greg 'I play a barista' Rikaart and Judith 'I can open my eyes REALLY wide' Chapman who both used to be fun but are now such drags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRBB Posted May 3, 2008 Author Members Share Posted May 3, 2008 I would love for Michael to stay also, but LeBlanc needs to start acting again. He used to be so compelling. And he needs to start getting a darker side again, just like Lauren needs to turn bitchy again. From the little I saw of Skye, I loved her. I like the actress also.
