Is Daniel Taking off?

Y&R's Michael Graziadei (Daniel) has landed a recurring role on 90210, the CW network's edgy spinoff of the '90's hit Beverly Hills 90210. According to insiders, the actor will play a drug dealer, although just how many episodes he'll be is still up in the air. However, Y&R fans can breathe a sigh of relief - we've heard the new primetime gig won't affect his Y&R duties, so don't expect Daniel to go back on tour with his rock-star father, Danny Romalotti, anytime soon!

"One of CWs biggest hits", their hits consist of ANTM and Smallville with everything else barely getting by. The fact is that 90210 lost 2 million viewers between this week and last. It's not a guaranteed anything.

Hopefully MG will leave Y&R soon for greener pastures, he's almost 30, he can only play teen roles for so long.

yet the show still won its timeslot, still did better than every other show on the CW aside from ANTM & Smallville, and still won the key demo's for the cw... Is it a hit by the big 3, or even fox, standers? No. But for the CW? Yup.

anyways... MG is a great actor and he can play teenage still, but i hope he doesnt leave Y&R. the younger set on that show is so weak and hes one of few bright spots. Hopefully they work with him so he can keep on doing other work. He was amazing on Criminal Minds.

That's awesome for MG, he really is talented.

90210 is a hit for the CW, but it didn't win it's timeslot. 90210 had 3.3 million and Fringe ended with 9 million. Fringe was on for 90 minutes and ever half hour picked up more viewers. In two weeks, Dancing with the Stars starts and who knows what will happen when they start.

Let's be real here ... of course the show would drop. Does anyone really expect a CW show, even 90210, to continue getting 5 million viewers? A 2 million drop isn't great but I just really dislike how people, because they don't really like a show, jump on it and call it cancelled. Next week is the true test, if it continues to drop, it won't look good but 90210 isn't going anywhere right now.

And does anyone really expect the show to win it's timeslot? LOL. I would never expect that. EVER.

    • Perhaps. But would anyone have wanted The Doctors to turn into what General Hospital ultimately became?  Dear God in Heaven...
    • Thanks @EricMontreal22 that must be one of the last issues. Probably the best soap magazine.
    • I can definitely see that airing the same week as The Love Boat colliding with an iceberg and sinking while crossing the North Atlantic on the Titanic anniversary with a “Who lives and dies?!” Promo next to Mr Belvedere being blackmailed over his wanted fugitive status back in the UK

        Agree with you both. I am also going assume that while Hotel may had some big numbers the first 2 seasons BUT the demographics weren’t great. Reason I say this is I distinctly remember my parents watching St Elsewhere and/or The Equalizer after Dynasty.    I still don’t get Hotel’s designation as a primetime soap opera either lol. ABC should have aired Paper Dolls in the 10/9 slot on Wednesdays in the fall of 1984 to give that show some more legs.    Obviously ABC was eyeing a double bill night in the same vein as Dallas & Falcon Crest and that might have worked better than leaving Paper Dolls to the wolves in an untested timeslot.
    • I tend to stay out of EP discussions, simply because I rarely know who EPs when. And they all have their good and bad sides. But how are we supposed to judge JFP on anything other than what we see? I didn't know she was a director or a music director. (and unlike say, Chris Goutman, I never saw her credited as anything other than an EP) Specifically in the matter of casting Crampton, she took credit for it (or at Crampton gave her credit for it, whatever) and it was arguably, one of the worst recasts of the '90's (and either as bad or worse than the actress she fired).  She lost two important actresses in '92 and still decided to kill Maureen.  She had a wildly uneven tenure at GL. It's no wonder she's polarizing. But it kind of proves a point--great soap is always a that rare combination of everything clicking at the same time.  And believe me, if I could bring myself to watch her male successors who were responsible for bringing back Reva and allowing her to eat the show again, or hiring Hunt Block, or being too chicken to stand up to stans who and hamstrung the show with boring couples stuck in the same repetitive stories (Vanessa/Matt, Chelle/Danny or Richard/Cassie, take your pick) not to mention San CristoHELL....I'd be more than happy to roast them on open spits. I guess we end up talking about JFP because she's in a period we can nominally agree was one of the last "best" periods of the show.
    • A degree does not make one an expert at their job, it just shows that you can follow directions from a technical standpoint.  It doesn't mean that they're creative. JFP was all about the look of a show without considering that technical beauty can only carry a show so far if there is nothing interesting to go along with it.  Equality means calling out flaws equally in both genders. 
    • NBC or P&G was even fool enough to take a full page ad for two consecutive weeks in TV Guide promoting this horrible storyline.

    • JFP has had more defense for her decades of terrible producing than many male producers ever had.
    • It makes sense that she got a degree in directing. I've always said she should have been a director. I think she works better at the technical aspects of the show. I think her problem is the emotion/heart of a show.  She always guts the heart of the show she's on and she makes decisions that stop longtime viewers from watching a show. I don't think it's sexism to call that out especially as I've said similar things about Conboy. I've called out Rauch for much worse. 
    • "Aunt Blanche" first appears toward the end of this episode, about 57 minutes in.
