Y&R: Heather & Brad


Recommended Posts

  • Members

Anyone else interested in this? Because when i read theyw ere being chem tested i was like no way. So i watched them on youtube and i kinda like them. i think VB & DD have really good easy natural chem. I also lvoe how unexpected this couple is - and thats what i love about Y&R. They mix everything up and try things out.

Also, i think that Vail Bloom has really started to become a good actress. Now thats shes not playing the ADA, but instead legal at jbot she works mucyh better and the char seems to be much more laid back and easy going insted of so poise and perfect. Id still lvoe to have Lindsey McKeon in the role as rumors said, but she is getting better.

Also... am i the only nikki/paul fan? i love that friendship.

I like Brad and Heather. Brad is the kind of guy everyone hates and seeing where things could go with Heather would be interesting. I always thought of Heather as an interesting character, but we didn't get much of her in 2008. I'd give anything to see more of Brad, Heather, Paul, Colleen, Adrian... those characters are quite interesting, but way too underused. And yes, I like Nikki and Paul together. The May 2 episode was interesting... Paul talking to Nikki and Lauren... It's nice to have at least one episode separate from all the Newman/Sabrina/Vikki drama.

may 2nd? is that today?

i do think that heather is intersting and i would like to see more of her. i also love that it can tocuh upon the brad and paul history. this is what i love about Y&R - the unexpected. on a show like gh you would never think a couple like that could actuall happen.

were they not trying a daniel/heather thing? did that not work?

i also am starting to like cane and lilly but would prefer him with chloe.

I don't know what they were trying to do with Daniel/Heather, but they seemed like a very interesting couple. He always made her smile and their scenes were great, but they dropped that. I believe they didn't have a scene together ever since that money burning episode (when Amber begged Daniel not to say anything to Heather). However, if they had actually decided to go down that route (H/D) I don't know if they'd be as interesting as before.

I just wish they'd get rid of Vail entirely. I have faith in what the replacements can do with the scraps LML left. Seriously, though, every time Vail comes on screen, I get pissed because I feel like the writers should concentrate on their stronger characters.

really? Because i honestly am intersted in heather and want to know more about her. maybe its just because i cant stand CKilly and SurSUCKeen. lol.

i do wish we had Liz Hindrickson in a better role and a role they planned to do something more with tho, because shes amazing.

One thing is for sure - Y&R's younger set needs major work, as does the entire show.

I agree about Liz. There doesn't even seem to be potential with her role. But that's probably because she doesn't have any familial connections with anyone on the show... unlike just about EVERYONE ON Y&R these days. With the success of this Fresh Face campaign, she may be able to set up some roots, though, and be more than just a thorn on Lily's side. Hopefully the writers will give Lily more backbone (despite Christel's shortcomings) and a good rivalry will brew.

About Vail, generally when characters are set up really badly, I don't want to know anything about them. At all. So, unless the writers actually give her something meaty, I still want her out of town. That was so odd how they set her up to leave for like 3 episodes and yet they kept her anyway. Does Vail have an exceptional agent/manager or what?

I agree about Chloe. She just.. i mean... theres no point other than they have an amazing actress in the role to keep her around. And to be honest so many olther char's need wotj and atorylines i wont be upset when she goes. it just pains me to lose a great under 30 actress when the show has none.

Heather i agree with too. I just wish they would explore her and paul more and i think using brad would be a great way to do it. daddy issues and all. i also have seen growth in Vail, unlike the other young actress on the show and i think thats why i now want more despie the bad role.

it was odd how they set her up to leave town. thats was around the time of the Lindsey McKeon rumors started.. then nothing.

At least this will give Paul more scene time.

I'm sorry but only thing CKLily is built for is woe is me storyline. Now that Chleo might be making a move on Cane. CKLily storyline is going to be woe is me I just lost your baby Cane & now woe is me I got to deal with Chleo showing what a real woman is made of. & she going ot coward in a corner somewhere like she let Amber & Daniel get away with that porn stuff.

I hate Vail Bloom and I don't think my opinion is ever going to change. Lindsay McKeon would be a sublime recast.

I like Brad with pretty much anyone. He's such a bastard but he's one that, oddly, I root for simply because he is so good at being bad.

    • My thoughts exactly! Fantastic find @DRW50!  
    • That was interesting; thanks. Courtney looks tired and/or bored AF, LOL!
    • 5-12   Lord have mercy.   I'm not sure how I feel about it. Perhaps what I said last week or the week before last. If the highlight of a soap is what people are wearing and not the writing, that's not a good thing. And that was how I was feeling watching this. There was not anyone that I was interested in seeing in the episode outside of Daniel and Sally tbh. Because Daniel continues to be the only thing that humanizes Phyllis for me.    I could care less for the Billy/Sally scenes where he's woe is me. I could care less about Kyle/Claire since the writers took all the drama right out of the pairing. Humanized or not, I could care less for Giggly Heffa.    I barely care for Teriah. But for me, it's nice to see something going on with them. Though it seems so horribly contrived.    I liked the costume designer appears to be trying to find individual styles for some of the characters. For me, Tessa's with the boots stood out given her indie musician history. It seems like Claire's style is coming into its own with block colors. I like Kyle's wardrobe is loosening up somewhat. I even loved the striped dress that Phyllis had on.    But again...where is the writing?
    • It was reported that Jane Wyman absence in the final season was due to health (it's documented that Jane was diabetic) but I believe her episodes being cut was a budget mode move. Similar move Dallas pulled in 1990, it was reported that Barbara Bel Geddes retired due to health (it's documented that Barbara had a heart condition) but I say salary dump. Jane Wyman only acted once after Falcon Crest, a 1993 episode of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, but she lived another 14 years after that. Barbara Bel Geddes did not act again after her last episode of Dallas in 1990 but she lived another 15 years after that. The trifecta of suck at Lorimar was Les Moonves, Leonard Katzman, and Michael Filerman. It was a pattern across all three CBS primetime soaps in the off the rails plus budget mode era to salary dump the long-time female cast members and bring on sweet young things hired on the cheap. 
    • To be fair, more than half of them are dead now. 
    • Kat may be a privileged elitist but that's not entirely true.  Kat first met Eva when Eva was snooping at Nicole's desk, so Kat's first impression of Eva wasn't very good.  Plus, Kat's instinct to not trust Eva was 100% right.  Kat's attitude toward Eva had nothing to do with Eva not "bowing" down to Kat, and her feelings toward her half-sister is very justified......minus the making fun of Eva's clothes of course. 
    • They said that this has metastasized to his bones, but the type of "aggressive" prostate cancer he has is actually very common and is treatable, or at least manageable. So the headline is misleading.   Apparently this type of cancer is hormonal which makes it somewhat treatable? But still, of course, sad.  Thinking of him and his loved ones.
    • Kat is a spoiled brat princess and Silk Press Sheila called her out on it.  Silk Press Sheila is someone not to mess with. I was actually scared for Kat when she was alone with Silk Press Sheila and recording their conversation.
    • It is funny that Stephanie and Philip still hide/blush/get embarrassed at the sight of each other.  Meanwhile, Kate's pouring coffee for Rafe at the pub as if they're only casual acquaintances.  Although, if Kate blushed every time she saw one of her former lovers, she'd be permanently red.
    • Great thought.  I mostly forgot about Kate's cancer.
