Monday's episode is another good one. I can honestly say that I'm really looking forward to what the rest of the week has to offer (even though we all know what happens)...

My only gripe is that the pace is still too fast (for my liking, mind). I'm also watching the episodes from 2003 (Dec, where the bribery starts to blow open) and episodes from 2008 still seem a bit fast.

Don't get me wrong, the quality has improved (greatly) this past week, but I'm a perfectionist.

I don't know why we have two topics on this week's festivities. No matter. I'll add what I wrote in the other thread in here. Monday's episode is another good one. I can honestly say that I'm really looking forward to what the rest of the week has to offer (even though we all know what happens)...

Also, I believe the promo has variations and ammendments to it.

because i searched for like 10 minutes trying to find a thread for this week and couldnt. and still cant. lol.

i do agree its moving too fast, but the past few months have been so slow. so.. idk. hopefully there will be a good classic Y&R balance soon.

there are a few promo's for this weeks events.

EDIT: I found it! a mod should merge this thread with this one - http://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/index.php?showtopic=27203

Aside from Esther, Jill currently has the lowest amount of appearances this month. That's what's bothering me. I know she will get a storyline, but I don't like to see her so rarely. Only 3 (out of 15)? However, Lily at 4 I can cope with. :)

I am just gald that they are writing Jill like she should be the queen bee of Y&R. Hopefully she can get the upper hand on Gloria once and for all. I know I might be in the minority but I just Love Li;y and Cane together and I can't stand Chole.

The show is slightly better. Still boring. And can they please STOP having that little girl sing! She has a fantastic voice but I am sick of her already.

SLEEPY TIME!! OH SLEEPY TIME!!!!! OHHHHHHHH SLEEPPPPPPPY TIME

SAY GOODNIGIIIIIGHT!! OH YEAAAAAAAAH!

And then the requisite panning shot of all the adults nodding their head in amazement of her WONDERFUL voice.

Its just contrived.

    • She did have a thing with him in the late '90s, before she inexplicably disappeared with no mention as to why, although I can't remember if they had sex.
    • I don't believe she did. She did sleep with Simon, believing he was a Spaulding.
    • -- If I ever get sick, please don't send me to Garland Memorial. That hospital is a YIKES. -- Soooo much activity around the main nurses' desk. Do they move dead people on a gurney past that desk, too? -- 8 months for Bill to recover from a "small stroke"? Uh....I don't think so. Is anyone researching this stuff? The hospital stuff is not coming off as realistic. -- It's good that Derek and Ashley are being integrated into other stories, but it's a real stretch to say Leslie was "stalking" Ashley. It makes Derek seem dumber than we already think he is. -- Ashley spends a lot of time having small talk while she's at work. -- Chelsea is embarrassing. Period. -- Tomas is supposed to pick up the slack for Bill, but he has time to have worthless conversations with Leslie? OK then. -- Kat is destroying the case against Leslie, but that's clearly the way to keep Leslie on the canvas.
    • 6-3   I almost let my system just delete the episode just like with B&B. I am now questioning if I should have. lol.   I just can't believe that Cole sat there and started to get sick and then only Victoria off and ran off and everyone basically went back to what they were doing at Nikki's birthday party. Cole was too much of a vet character for that. And now story back off-screen.   I did chuckle at how much Victor pay Kyle dust. And now Kyle with this deal and a promise to leave town if he hurts Claire. smh. As if Victor isn't going to make that happen.   It was lovely to see Ashley. And actually (misdressed and all) Abby.    And I liked Claire's dress. 
    • Oh. That. I pretend that never happened.

      I did think of another possibility. Did India ever sleep with Alan? They kind of toyed with pairing them up, but I'm not sure they ever became lovers.
    • While I do love the chaotic energy that is Kat vs Lesile, it is a bit extra. Sheltered, virginal Kat who plays it safe from her man to her wardrobe understands that Leslie is dangerous, but she's out here showing up everywhere and anywhere that Lesile is to be found and actively going to places where she is alone? I mean Kat doesn't even act a little afraid or intimidated by Leslie. Meanwhile, big Ole Derek out here begging for his and Ashley's life to Jacob.  As for Dani, I didn't see it that way. Dani and Bill were together for 30 years and shared a family. I believe there was real love there at one point. Bill is still an ass and Dani is still crazy, but realizing she may lose him and her daughter's may lose their dad definitely struck a chord.
    • Funny I randomly saw Kami’s lengthy post about the 44th anniversary of the Walton’s finale last week pop up in my news feed on Facebook. A few inaccuracies to her post but overall it was pretty insightful and interesting to read. 
    • Well, depending on rewrites...Jennifer Richards potentially slept with Brandon and Alan. It does feel like we're forgetting someone, but then again, maybe I'm confusing that with brothers, which would include a lot more.
    • Maybe it’s me, and the fact that RC isn’t at the helm, but since Cwikly and Ford have taken over I’ve noticed the show doing a lot of things differently directing wise, and since the storyline of John’s demise began, the show has been using different scores, and dare I say better ones than this time last year. It’s interesting and I wonder if the any of it is Noel Maxam’s influence before being promoted.
    • I think Nicole is about to figure out what's going on between Andre and Dani.
