Y&R: Week of June 16, 2008

[MoTheGreat]

You notice he like very terrible actors. He actually said Charles Divens to replace Shemar as Malcolm. Talking about emotionless.

[rhythmchyc]

Why do people even bother arguing with y&r_fan? We're never getting Davetta or AL back anyway.

[JackPeyton]

^I actually like to disuss things with Y&r fan...

[rhythmchyc]

It doesn't seem like y&r_fan discusses things, though. It seems more like speaking to a 10 Ft. thick, brick wall.

I still remembered the time y&r_fan posted a clip of Tammin to prove how talented she was... not in the least bit... not in that scene anyway. No crying. Not even a flicker of emotion in her eyes. Nothing. It was the most ironic, anti-climactic thing.

Then again, this board would not be nearly as intriguing without y&r_fan.

[y&r_fan]

No, I don't like "very terrible" actors. I like actors who I think are good, and that includes CK, TS and probably a few others you don't like. No need to get offensive about it.

That was just a suggestion. I couldn't think of any other thirtysomething black males to play the role. There are probably 1,000 better options who I've never even heard of.

Why?

It wasn't a crying scene. It was an angry scene, and she did it very well. That is my opinion; yours may differ.

Why thankyou.

[TC]

Still waiting for Tammin to at least act like the character she was hired to play...

[y&r_fan]

^I think the reason they recast Colleen in the first place was to change the character's personality. I personally think Colleen is more mature now than when Adrianne played her.

[TC]

If dull and without personality means *more mature* then I guess they got it right. We can always blame the writers for that. After all, they are doing such a great job with everyone else.

[rhythmchyc]

I know it wasn't a crying scene but still, it would have been nice if she went further with that than she did.

And you're welcome LOL.

Also, please show caps of TS from that Australian show so that I can see how much better she was, as you've been claiming. Thanks.

[TC]

Who cares how she did on some Australian show a few years ago? Sure, it might be an indication of talent but aren't we allowed to ask for the same NOW, in the PRESENT? Tammin Sursok's catalogue of great performances on some Australian show is NOT what is happening now. Aren't we Y&R viewers entitled to see this immense talent, one that is so much greater than Adrienne Leon?

*still waiting, Tammin*

and to Y&RFan, this is about Tammin, not you.

[rhythmchyc]

I agree TC. I'm just hoping there's a glimmer of hope somewhere down the line...

Oh F*** it! She sure sucks. Darn it.

[PJA]

In Tammin's defense the character is beyond boring..I thought the character had become boring when AL was still playing her as well and I think that's the writers fault. I guess they thought changing the actress would make the character more interesting but at the end of the day you have to have good writing.

I also think EH (Chloe) is hugely overrated on this board. As far as I'm concerned her acting is no better or worse than any of the other younger actors on the show. And her drunk scenes make me cringe.

Also I think CK is an okay actress, but Devetta was much better as Lily IMO.

[MTSRocks]

I have to admit, I've been enjoying the show lately, it's been less boring.

[y&r_fan]

I would if I could, but unfortunately I don't have any.

Precisely. Colleen became boring when she hooked up with The Slutty Professor IMO.

Me too. There's still room for improvement though.
