They should have Nick and Sharon flash back a few times to the teen years with Mr. Dimples/Sexy Eddie, Matt and then bring Rick to Y&R as Whip and pair him with Jill. I loved his character on B&B and thought he was totally wasted in favor of keeping Brooke miserable, pinning after Ridge.

I'm enjoying this Ice Storm episode for the most part. I thought they didn't like to show the old episodes where anyone has been re-casted, yet it was great to see Traci's believable daughter Colleen, who actually had some chemistry with Mr Korbel.

I'm thinking this episode is TERRIFIC. I thought that back in the day.

I see no evidence of "rushed" storytelling.

Better yet, everything on screen still resonates today:

Summer

Jack-Phyllis dynamic

Brad-Sharon dynamic

It is interesting to see Dru and real-Colleen. I never liked her with Korbel, but I do miss that version of Colleen.

I find that version of Nick--heroic--to be somewhat weaker now...but boy do I like that character!

I don't miss Lily-Daniel together. I like Daniel with Amber more...she better fits his vibe.

It was nice seeing Rebecca again...and it was nice seeing Victor and Nikki in happier times.

I think this might have been before the show really went to sh*t. The team was still

Latham

Alden

Hamner

Cwikly

Ferri Esser

Minardi Slater

Dufour

So, there were a number of really competent people still there...and it wasn't a HUGE team. How do you think Cwikly/Esser/Slater divided that role? Did Cwikly do the breakdown, and Esser/Slater edit?

ETA: Now, Nick giving Lily point-by-point instructions on how to do CPR (really, a public service annoucement)...didn't love that quite so much.

Seeing the emerging JT/Victoria chemistry was kind of nice.

ETA2: Handheld camera work in the elevator, and following Nick carrying Daniel into the ER was kind of nice. I'm impressed Morrow is strong enough to lift and carry Graz.

She's been good this year, but in those love-making scenes with Paul, I couldn't help but notice how much weight she's gained this year. Not that it matters, but I wonder if things are well in the Scott household. I was looking at YouTube clips from a year ago, just to judge, and there's a HUGE difference in Melody's appearance.

I just saw Tuesday and Wednesday (didn't see Monday though... and I'm sad that I missed those Bergman/Stafford scenes)...

I LOOOOVED Nikki finally telling off Victor! I hate Victor Newman. He's disgusting! And Nikki telling him to go to hell was AMAZING! I hope she never returns to Victor. And if she does, I will hate her too! :lol: With that said, I loved Nikki/Paul. I have never seen them originally, but they are really working together as couple! I hope they stay together for a while.

Scheming Phyllis is back and it's so great! I love it!

Olivia and Ashley scenes were great too! Loved seeing old friends back together! Hated Brad/Olivia affair, so I hope they never mention it again! LOL And Nate was mentioned! Yay!

Thanksgiving episode was great. Loved seeing all the family moments. I only wish we had more Abbotts. Loved Esther vs Jill! It was so good! I hope Katherine stays "dead" for a while. Plus, it's nice watching how she does in this "new life" as a waitress. Maybe she can fall in love with Murphy and then the truth comes out. The storyline has one flaw though and some of you already noticed it.. how come Murphy didn't find out about Katherine dying in a car accident? Wouldn't he suspect at least something? Or at least mention it to Marge? But if you move pass that, it's great! :D And too bad Chloe is getting a girl. I would love it if they named a boy Gabriel. I love that name! It clear they chose for Chloe to have a girl, just so they could give her a middle name Katherine. LOL

And finally, what made me most happy... Winters storyline is heating up! Woohoo! I hope we get Yolanda back in form of Chene Lawson, who was GREAT! And then this ugly custody battle happens! It would be so great! And it's clear that this crisis with Ana will lead to Neil and Tyra getting closer together. Should be good! :D

Y&R continues to be great!

I'm really enjoying this new Winters family drama too. I've always thought Bryton was a good actor and that Y&R was totally wasting him. So far he's getting really good material with this storyline - he's great in Monday's US ep. I was also impressed with Eva Pigford.
