Y&R could be a show for Ashley if they remember her glamorous, fun side, revive her closeness to Jack, and get her away from Victor. Victor is a horrible burden for any female character now. They just brought her back as a fill-in for Sabrina.

There is plenty of time for that. What I'm loving about Ash right now is that she is both the snooty entitled b!tch that many people hate (e.g., how she treats Estella and Gloria) and the powerful sexy woman many loved (esp. when she took over Jabot for a few minutes). She has also been strong and stable (like when she helped TGVN by "clearing his head" in Paris), and also convincingly terrified (yesterday).

We have an Ashley who is front burner, and shows a remarkable range. Indeed, I just watched the old youtube when Nikki confronted Ashley...and Ashley was not remotely apologetic for stealing Victor. I HATED Ashley then...and loved it when Victoria ran in calling her 'wicked witch'.

But, with what Adam is doing, sympathy is totally on her side.

I think the character is in terrific shape, and has so many delightful directions to go in.

I also don't think Brenda Dickson is as bad some people made her out to be. In life sure, but I loved her portrayal of Jill. And as much as I love Jess Walton, Brenda could give just as good a bitchy smack down. I actually prefer some of her verbal sparring with Kay.

Jess Walton, Martha Byrne, and Erika Sleasek are overrated.

Jess and Martha are good, but they are far from some of the greates, IMHO.

and Erika... just plain overrated,. Shes like Lucci, an OK actress who just has so much hype and i dont get it. At least with Lucci most know she isnt he worlds greatest actress.

Not sure if this is unpopular or not but I really really want THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL to win the Emmy this year. Based on the Storm's suicide episodes they submitted, and the submissions from all the rest, it deserves to win.

Here's an opinion that I would be scared to post in any thread other than this one:

Jeanne Cooper is one of daytime's most horrendous overactors. I mean, my God - the way she throws her arms in the air and tries to make the most insignificant of lines sound like Shakespeare. Ugh.

Yes!

LOL. Stom's suicide was great. But the rest of the 200 episodes last year sucked donkey's balls.

UO: I was never a big Macy fan on B&B. I know! I have no heart.

I think The Young and the Restless is Bill Bell's worst creation.

I think Katherine Kelly and La Flannery need to go ASAP. They are at the core of B&B's carcinogenic tissue.

I hate "funny" names for characters like the Quad, Scooby Gang etc.

agree, however its much easier than Nick, Sharon, Jack and Phyliss or Daniel, Amber, Kevin, and Jana. lol.

YES!

Also, i dont think what EJ did to Sami was rape. And its not just cuz im a fanboy. Because since the show has gone ahead and said it was rape i will go with it, and root for them even tho he raped her. But i really dont think he did.

Exactly. I was not going to write out Zach/Kendall/Ryan/Annie/Aidan/Greenlee every time I wanted to discuss them in AMC's thread. The Sextet worked just fine. It's names like "Spixie" or "Zendall" or that horrid, horrid one from GH 2002 -- "Journey" -- that irritate me.

ETA: Speaking of Amber, just in case I didn't mention it before (although I'm sure I did), Adrienne Frantz makes me want to throw a brick through my television. Whoever told this annoying twit she could act should be shot in the street like a mad dog!

    • I would love for Rick and Amber to come back and Amber to be involved with Deke somehow

        The show does look great though! 
    • Well, she just said "ladies" on the show but she didn't specify they were fellow actresses. It could have been some of the women behind the scenes of the show. There was a lot in the interview that wasn't clear to me.
    • Now would’ve been a great time to get the next A plot going, versus Bill and Katie and Steffy and Liam rehashing the same BS about Luna we have been hearing for weeks. 
    • I feel it could benefit from a focus on one of their three A stories or a solid B plot. But right before the turnover from Guza to Thomson, outside of all things Dani...there's nothing too A story-ish going on. Still entertaining for me, but it's noticeable that there is not a main story with other B/C stories going on. It's just...a bunch of stories going on.    I do hope the build to Winterfest and us actually seeing it THIS month will get things moving again.    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
    • GET THAT HEFFA, NOSY NURSE!!!   I'm sorry to see Smitty and June coming to a middle ground. It seem like that tension would be between them for at least one more story arc. A writing change?   I'm sorry but I love the teen unit of Ty, Samantha, and Jessica (and Rocco, Danny, Charlotte over on GH which is what today is reminding me of). I'm a sucker for soap teens. lol.
    • I really hope Laura doesn’t get reelected. She doesn’t deserve it. Imagine her campaign staff, freaking out at the Metro Court as election results come in while she’s hanging out with Sonny.
    • Thanks for that. It was great to see her in an interview. She's very likable. Although it was somewhat confusing. What new soap is she talking about going on audition for in 1973. Was it The Young and the Restless? Is it just me or did they never even say the name of this soap opera? Days wasn't new in 1973 and there was no "Jack" with three daughters on The Young and the Restless. What soap are they talking about? The editing around that part was weird and choppy. I felt like there was a chunk missing or something. And I'm not sure why she was saying she got colorectal cancer from HPV and said it's because she never got the HPV vaccine but then said she's never had anal sex. I'm not a doctor but that didn't seem to make any medical sense. I don't know. Maybe I'm tired. It just seemed like some of this interview didn't make sense. 
    • If it helps any, the last script cover from the Elman papers that I have is from episode #3,736 airdate November 15, 1977. Writers are the Hollands with Frank Salisbury.
    • B&B really does look incredible. The lighting and the polished sets have made a significant difference how visually appealing the show is now.
    • I found the problem with the Labine era was that the show lost some humour when the Labines came on and it could be dull. They also didn't seem to understand some of the characters. As others have said, it looks fantastic in comparison to the next regime but I just remember boredom being the primary response.
