A rumor from the SoapNet message board:

"Take this with the usual grain of salt, but I know someone (yeah, typical gossip) who knows Thad's manager. According to his manager, Thad loves working with his wife, but he feels like JT has not been written for in a long time. He mentioned this to Maria Bell and Hogan Sheffer and asked for a JT storyline.

Supposedly, late this fall JT and Victoria's marriage is going to hit a bump. Victoria is busy at work, and they don't spend much time together.

The writers are bringing Tyra (Eva Marcille) back to be a confidant and potential love interest for JT, who is going to be spending a lot of his spare time at Indigo."

I think JT/Tyra could be SMOKING. And so much better than Tyra/Neil. However, I wish they would go with something more creative if this is indeed true.

Jack & Victoria is disgusting.

I agree. I don't think Victoria would EVER agree to be romantically involved with Jack Abbott.

TPTB flirted with it but thankfully didn't do it.

She is daddies little girl after all.

Victor would really write her outta the will then. lol

I think I would much rather see Tyra become a hot distraction for Nick instead of J.T. Someone definitely needs to come between Nick and Phyllis, who despite being a hot couple in the beginning, are rather boring and bland right now. Tyra needs to seduce Nick and those fat lips of his while turning Phyllis back into the maniacal shrew that she's meant to be. J.T. can just leave town or be killed off for all I care. However, if the show is determined to hold on to him, I still think J.T. should cheat on Victoria with a hot guy. Give this show its very first storyline of a man cheating on his S/O with another man.

Y&R should stay away from GLTBQ stories until S&P are revamped.

What is S&P?

Put Victoria with Neil and Tyra with JT. I think it could work and you'd even have a strong storyline if Dru returns. Amelia Heinle can't carry a story like Heather Tom, but he can make it work if the writing is top notch.

I actually really like the idea of Victoria and Neil, imagine how Victor would react if one of his most respected colleagues began seeing his daughter whilst tension between Victor and Victoria was still rife...and imagine how he would react if they broke up and ended badly! I do love the idea of JTyra, but I don't see why Y&R cant make a decision with the Karen character and whether or not to keep Nia Peeples around.

I think I would actually welcome someone new into Victoria's love life, rather than anyone currently on the show.

I don't want to be hating on AH, but it's her eyes, you see. She delivers her lines and her eyes look dead.

As for JT -- waste-of-space. However, I am willing to see where this story goes. It might give a little oomph to two actors who have never really had any.

When I said that I meant that as daddies little girl she wouldn't go against him like that, not that she WOULD get with Jack.

Though she did get with Brad, so who knows....

Right.

But if she did Victor would have a fit.

I really thought they were going to put Victoria with Jack when Amelia first joined the show. The show heavily flirted with the idea of Jack and Victoria, as well as Brad and Victoria. As you can see, Brad and Victoria won out in the end. At the time, I thought it was juicy and so scandalous and I really wanted it to happen, but now that I think about it, three years later, I thank God they didn't go there. And I don't say that because Jack was once Victoria's stepfather. Victoria was already a teenager when Nikki and Jack were together. It was Nick who was still a child at the time. So that part is not what made me change my mind, but it was rather knowing it would ruin Victoria as a character. She's daddy's little girl as others have stated. She would never ever do that to Victor. Brad was one thing. But Jack? Deep down inside, I think Victoria hates Jack, just because Victor hates him so much. She would never do that to her father.

And I do agree that Victoria and Neil would be something worth trying again. Kristoff St. John and Amelia Heinle aren't that bad looking together.
