I loved that part of yesterday's show too......

I'm so over Phick, their "romantic" and "love" scenes this week made me roll my eyes and cringe........

Edited To Add:I'm watching live right now and my Mom just asked me who was taking care of Summer while Phyllis was at Crimson Lights and it made me wonder the same thing........ :unsure:

I wish they would have Nicholas and Sharon state that Cassie didn't die as a result of drunk driving. Cassie died because she was 14 and didn't know how to drive a car. The way they have Nick and Sharon's scenes today, if you weren't waching when Cassie died, you would think she died because of a drunk driver. Not true.

She didn't die because of drunk driving, but alcohol did play a part. What if Noah got too drunk to drive home and Eden decided to drive him home? Same situation because I'm sure she doesn't know how to drive either. And although drunk driving isn't exactly how she died, I could see how they would include that in what they want their son to stay away from.

I agree, plus Nick and Sharon have been on this anti-drunk driving thing since Cassie died. It played a huge part in that Cassie's Challenge thing they had going for a while...

But that's a different situation. Eden was drunk at the party. If Noah got into the car with her and they got into an accident, then yes, that would have been an accident due to driving under the influence. That's not the case though.

All I'm saying is that the way the scenes came off today, the way they had Nick and Sharon's lines written, it made it sound like Cassie died because she was driving drunk or she was driving with someone that was drunk, which wasn't the case at all. If you didn't know what happened, you would think the latter happened.

I disagree. Underage drinking played a huge role in her death. It was not the ONLY thing...Cassie's own recklessness was relevant...but it was huge.

Why? Daniel was drunk, causing her to drive. Also, Daniel was drunk, causing him not to stop her.

Y&R has always played Nick and Sharon as parents PERFECTLY, reacting as parents WOULD...from Noah's "still birth" (or whatever...they thought he died) till now. Every piece perfect. This latest arc in the Noah story is no exception.

SO GLAD that Rauch didn't f-uck with the lighting, in fact, I thought it was darker and more crisp today. Then again, it's only Rauch's first episode, who knows how the lighting and set design will look like in two weeks time. I also noticed a lot of the actors seemed more alert today - especially Michelle Stafford, Sharon Case, and Joshua Marrow. It must have something to do with the way Rauch produces his shows, since he likes to be present when all scenes are being taped.

I'm so ready for Nick and Phyllis to end, and Nick and Sharon were dead on as parents today.

I've noticed that the actress playing Eden is much better in comedic scenes and scenes where she doesn't have to be angry and emotional, but she still needs major work.

The dynamic between Billy and Chole is hilarious, and Amber and Cane are as clueless as ever.

Good show today, I see MAB didn't let Rauch make many of his usual changes, which is good. The pace seemed to be a lot better then it had been, and the stories seemed to flow better.

Sharon needs to STFU. :rolleyes: When Phylis wants to talk to her husband, let her talk to her husband you self-righteous bitch.

And those teens are sooooooooo lame lol.

      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.

      I just finished watching and I have to admit, not once did I find myself wondering who wasn't there. Quick question for anyone who followed this better than I did: was it only Andrew who rescued Cat and John from Clyde, or was Shane involved too? The reactions during their scenes today felt a little off to me. I know it was meant to be vague, but I didn't find it strange that they already knew each other.

      Yeah, financially, Luna is in better shape than Deacon and Sheila.   -- Scott Clifton must have decided to chew the scenery in every scene of this "Liam is Dying" storyline. Yikes.

      If J.R. wasn't busy with Ewing Oil, he'd be a heckuva soap recapper. He was SO gleeful at recapping Jenna-Bobby-Pam when the trio and Mark encountered each other at the Oil Baron's Ball. That being said, Lucy, presumably Sue Ellen and maybe Ray should all know this story, or at least part of it. Lucy was definitely at Southfork during Jenna and Bobby's relationship, and I believe Sue Ellen was about to marry J.R. around the time Jenna jilted Bobby. (Ray might not have given a damn.)

      ALL: Proposed Soaps Over The Years

      By DRW50 · Posted

      Broadcasting Magazine (May 5, 1980) : Future US-Next TV : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive From a May 1980 Broadcasting issue: Meredith Broadcasting in association with Alan Sloan Inc has committed itself to produce series of five half hours in soap opera form, "designed for youngers 11-14 and their parents." Programs, yet untitled, "will deal with problems teen-agers face in their relationships with peers and parents," with script topics reviewed in advance by teachers, psychologists and others. First episode is to air on Meredith's five TV's in September and ground broadcaster also anticipates syndication. If successful, idea is to go to full-fledged series.

      Secrets of Midland Heights

      By DRW50 · Posted

      Broadcasting Magazine (May 5, 1980) : Future US-Next TV : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive Looking at an old Broadcast issue with a fall schedule preview. Their description of the show: Lorimar Productions turns its cameras "below the surface of a small, traditional, thriving college town still large controlled by its founders, the Millingtons." Plot elements include "nurtured dreams, closely-held desires, closeted shame and vital truths about friends and family." Lee Rich, Michael Filerman and David Jacobs are executive producers of the Roundelay production, in association with Lorimar.  They also mention the show in a small section about advertising's point of view.  Advertising agency reaction to the new fall line-ups announced by ABC and CBS last week varied. But upfront, some agency types were apprehensive that their advertisers might be turned off by some of the new "titillating" entries. "I'm concerned about the amount of permissiveness," said one executive, with CBS' Secrets of Midland Heights commonly mentioned as one possible offender.

      I just saw this. Thanks for sharing. The classic Y&R thread may enjoy your posts. It was in very poor taste for Andy Cohen to blindside MTS with that type of question, but I'm not surprised as he's an awful person.
