Members y&r_fan Posted July 22, 2008 Members Share Posted July 22, 2008 It really needs to be updated. I like the current style, but there are so many cast members missing: Vail Bloom Bryton Judith Chapman Adrienne Frantz Daniel Goddard Elizabeth Hendrickson Christel Khalil Kate Linder Eva Marcille Emily O'Brien Nia Peeples Kristoff St. John Tammin Sursok They should also update the shots of: Peter Bergman Doug Davidson Thad Luckinbill Joshua Morrow Melody Thomas Scott Michelle Stafford Jess Walton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted July 22, 2008 Members Share Posted July 22, 2008 I think the last time anyone's shot was added or updated was in 05. They seriously need a brand new opening, this one is old and stale IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted July 22, 2008 Members Share Posted July 22, 2008 Judith Chapman and Kristoff already appear in the opening. The last updates made were when they added Judith, and gave new shots for Jess Walton, Jeanne Cooper and I think Greg Rikaart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted July 23, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 The last update was June 2006. They added Amelia Heinle, Judith Chapman, Bryton and Michael Graziadei and new shots of Eileen Davidson and Greg Rikaart. Chapman, St. John and Bryton's entire reels were removed when Davidson and Rowell left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sedrick Posted July 23, 2008 Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 The show's opening is not like those of the others soaps that can just be easily updated without looking cheap... I think TPTB have been more concerned with more pressing troubles in the production lately besides the opening... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted July 23, 2008 Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 i dont think the opening would be any ahrder than B&B's opening to updates. B&B has images over images over images for the backdrop, a blue hue over all of it, the black at top and bottom, then the char over all of that as wella s the actor/char name. yr has a show shot overlayed by a closeup shot with white over it, ampo up the contrast, and the actor name. openings are important to a show. if Y&R cant update at least once a year then drop it and just do the title card.

Members y&r_fan Posted July 23, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 ^I hope they never drop the opening entirely! I wish they'd update it every time the cast changes, like B&B does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted July 23, 2008 Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 They don't even have to call in the actors to take shots as the ABC shows, ATWT, and B&B have to do. Just get some archive footage and scrap something together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted July 23, 2008 Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 not all together drop it, just the cast parts. doa short one like B&B has. the woman walking, the title card, the fade out. set to the tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted July 23, 2008 Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 Umm, that actress in your siggie who played in Nip/Tuck last season was like sex on legs. She seriously had no inhibitions. But that Eden was so vacuous. I really wish Ryan Murphy gave her some layers and I hope the writers for 90210 redux give her layers too. Sure, 90210 1.0 wasn't the most high-brow show but those characters were a lot more realistic than any character on Gossip Girl or The OC. At least Brenda was a Beyotch for a reason, several actually. Blair Waldorf can't hold a candle to that girl. Here's hoping this Naomi character will not be the latest bland-bitch of the 21st century. And that outfit of hers is sooooo 1987 Dynasty LOL.

Members MarkH Posted July 23, 2008 Members Share Posted July 23, 2008 I agree with your title card idea, but I want the porn-opening version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted July 24, 2008 Members Share Posted July 24, 2008 I want the porn version or the original, people turning and smiling/grunting/taking sexy-"sexy" poses opening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted July 25, 2008 Members Share Posted July 25, 2008 On my last cell phone I had Jess Walton in her most glamorous porn theme posing as my wallpaper... No kidding. I think we won't get a new opening until they have to drop another version of the current one. Seriously, last time they were down to 3 from originally 5 versions before they updated it in 2006. Same thing with the porn opening which they never updated, they just put one version after another into the firdge after certain people left the show.

Members Cat Posted July 25, 2008 Members Share Posted July 25, 2008 Please no porn opening! (Unless they use Jill's hair-toss shot which was, of course, superb). Jack's hair swoop deserves a shot of its own. In fact, Jack's swoop deserves its own agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DavidEvanSmith Posted July 25, 2008 Members Share Posted July 25, 2008 Jill's porn opening hair toss must be LEGENDARY because it sounds like it's a favorite shot of all of ours. Why can't she grow her hair out like that again? Delicious! I feel like Y&R, for all they try to do to recognize their talent, they sure do a disservice by neglecting the opening so much. Everything seems so deliberate on Y&R, can't they treat the opening like something other than an afterthought?! Seen in the opening but not anymore: Bryton Judith Chapman Doug Davidson? Christel Khalil Never seen in the opening: Vail Bloom Tracey E. Bregman Chris Engen Adrienne Frantz Daniel Goddard Elizabeth Hendrickson Kate Linder (not that I miss her) Emily O'Brien Eyal Podell Ted Shackelford Tammin Sursok So that's what, more than half the cast?! And all these people are the only ones I see on screen, pretty much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
