Members y&r_fan Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 QUOTE (Chris B @ Aug 6 2008, 05:26 AM) Putting him (or anyone) near Tammin Sursok is going to ruin the storyline. I understand they need a hurdle, but surely there is someone else? Just write her off already. It's obvious they know she isn't working, so why keep giving her chances?

Members MarkH Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 I have found it a little odd myself, Michael doing all this. EXCEPT (i) he threw most of the funeral stuff over onto Jana, ( I think friendship (he explained how he felt Victor had been there for him in the past...remember that Christmas where the Newmans brough him in from the cold?) and this new odd "need to be a good son" are at the root of this, © it is not like Michael has lost his edge---witness his snark with Adam. With rumors that Michael kicks off his front burner storyline within days...I just think this is all about showing us a bit of the "good heart" Michael has developed, despite his snark. Have a good trip--I am envious. I don't see why dark lighting is a good thing. I personally think it is odd that I had to turn up the brightness on my TV. Other than representing a more classic lighting style (nostalgia motive), why is darkness good? Visually, I thought some of the changes under LML (especially the revitalized NE set, with movement, that hopping corridor, addition of the elevator, breakroom, and multipurpose conference room, Victor's office within view of some of these rooms, lots of contiguous movement from scene to scene) was a good thing. I have missed these NE rooms lately. Sometimes, I worry they are "dialing back" certain things just "because" ( a kind of juvenile 'ding-dong, the witch is dead'...like that newspaper headline saying Crime Rate Lowest in 35 years, the INTENTIONAL shows of diamonds-fires-water bottles-flower arrangements)...even when some things improved pacing or energy or visual appeal.

Members dm. Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 I actually like it that the show has become more dark. I like darkness, and Y&R has always been like that way before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Greg's GL Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 I like the darker look as well. One thing that started buggin me during yesterday's show was the use of some pop music in the scenes. I was hoping that would be gone for good.

Members Cat Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 I didn't find Y&R exceptionally darkly-lit yesterday. CBS has always been the Death Glare network. Unintentionally funny moment: Paul huffing and puffing as he attempted to lift that cellar lid in the stables. Maybe he should have called JT? Damn, when did Colleen get so snarky again? Although I hated it when she went to ask Pwincess Lily permission to throw out Chloe and Amber. Lily did her best Benign Monarch imitation: "Chloe, yes. Amber, no." BTW, I know she's a psychopathic liar and all, but I felt sorry for PsyChloe when Devon, Lily and Cane rounded on her. I can't help it! I'm glad the show remembered that daniel & Lily were once married, but they were so flippant and "Hey, remember when we were married and how quickly we got over each other?" about it. They were a pretty beloved couple back in the day. Now, though, they have zero chemistry. And that's saying something, because Michael Grazadei is a chemistry magnet. Looks like Eyall Podell is outta there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Greg's GL Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 I felt exactly the same way. He's such a hottie. SUCH a hottie! THANK GOD and good riddance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 ^Yes, I must agree. Chloe is a blessing. Almost half the Y&R fans (if not even more) hate her, but just because of that I like her even more. The boring combo of Cane, Lily, Devon and Colleen together aren't even half as interesting as Chloe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Greg's GL Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 ^^^ dmarex - I didn't realize that the majority of the fans didn't like Chloe. Are these people big fans of Cane/Lily???? As a matter of fact, my fave newer characters on the show are Adam, Heather and Chloe. Not necessarily in that order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 Yes, it's mostly Lane. It keeps surprising me that people like Lane. What the heck do they see in that couple? Yes, out of the newest characters, those three are amazing Each special in their own way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Greg's GL Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 ^^^ WOW. That surprises me, too. I guess we're missing something in Lane that the others are seeing?!?! I really liked the fact that Heather was with Adam yesterday when they found Syke's ring. She looks like she will be there to support him through this.

Members dm. Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 Ah, Adam and Heather... :wub: Yeah, we're missing the need for boredom that everyone else obviously wants. Because that's the only thing Lane provides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted August 6, 2008 Members Share Posted August 6, 2008 Word. Chloe is the saving grace of the younger set. She is the only character with spunk. She is full of potential. She needs an older confidant/mentor though, maybe Jill or even Phyllis. Cane and Lily are a joke. Cane comes off like pedophile and CK is a terrible. Lane probably has the usual vocal soap fanbase of 10 people posting all over the boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
