The Winters family drama finally got a shot in the arm with Tyra and Ana stuff on Monday's episode. They're finally interesting. Though, I understand that many don't care for the Winter's, Tyra or Ana, so...

The Jabot stuff this week should be very interesting.

And there's more variety of sets and some newer built sets for Monday's US episode. Where is Y&R getting all this money from? I'm glad for it though.

As I mentioned in the Directors/Writers thread, Janice Ferri Esser is listed as Co-Script Editor again on Monday's US episode. However, it wasn't an episode that called for much historical references.

This should be another good week, a lot is about to happen. :)

I've always felt Tyra is a useful character if written correctly. Let Neil be more of a father figure for her or big brother. Don't just throw them together romantically because she's black. I'd romantically put her with the younger crowd. Billy, Kevin, Daniel, Cane, etc. and see what happens. If Nate is a medical student, maybe bring him back for her. But putting her with Neil would take the character several steps back. Putting her with JT would be another move that would give the show a shot in the arm.

Are you referring to his last scene? On the other hand, Eva Marcille did the 'far away' look during Tyra and Devon's scene together. I really liked the scene because it gave more backstory regarding the emotional pain they suffered when they were kids due to Yolanda.

I think that Yolanda's return could be great if everything gels well.

Great clip of Heather Tom. Her Victoria is the only one who I thought could truly replace Victor in running Newman Enterprises one day and replacing the great Victor Newman. She loved her mother but she was so much more like her father than Nick.

I know everyone is loving the show, but I am missing one of my favs, Tracey Bregman. She hasn't been on since Kay's funeral when she had those two great scenes facing off with Sharon and then apologizing to Tracy Abbott. I just don't understand why Bell and Scheffer are writing so many characters great storyline and nothing for Lauren and then the one they wrote for Michael and his father was poorly thought out and was basically turned into a Gloria story then backburned altogether so Michael can play lackey and lawyer to Victor.

I always believe Tara took Ana and left town, and that why she came to see Neil with lies and more lies. I won't believe that for 11 years Tara raised Ana and Ana believe Tara was her mother. When Tara and Ana ran away ffrom the school that Katherine attained for Ana, she need more prove of Ana like her Birth Cert. Tara must been receiving funds for her or her mother Yolanda and the State wanted prove of Ana whereabout. I never believe Yolanda just gave away her daughter.

I hope Neil and Karen marry. Know one needs Olivia view point about who they should be with. Where Oliva family or man.

Are they bringing Dru back? Jack and his family getting Jaboy back, will Gloria ever pay for the Tainted Cream and the woman dying, I hope the family get the company back, but I hope Sharon leaves Jack and her and Nick get back together.

Two Rats in a hut should be together and I talking about Jack and Phyllis.

    • 5-6   Meh. It already looks like a scattershot week.    5-5 was actually a good episode. Damian and Lily. Phyllis finally going on the warpath that I knew she could get on with Billy and Sally. Nate started to question Audra and Victor's alliance. And I was not even bugged by Kyle and Claire.   But then there's Cole's off-screen story. Kyle and Claire going back to being whiny. And them even wanting Adam's penthouse just sounded like trying to keep the set around. And Diane shouldn't even give a flying frak about Billy's opinion. And Tessa, Daniel, and the guitars...yeeeah no.   But hey...JM looked good in that short. And those pants.  I agree. One of Y&R's good points with fans has always been that you do at least see the vets. And IN stories. 
    • One of the things that I found unnecessary and a bit disturbing about Ambitions was that in almost every episode someone was holding or shooting a gun.  Jamey and Ron seem to have the same fetish.
    • I had thought that there was a Tommy Biddles on there, but then I realized I was thinking of Dr. Biddles on Santa Barbara. Never mind!

    • I have watched the scene where Vanessa reads the letter and it's lovely, but I'm really glad now that I never got around to watching the funeral. Henry ADORED Nola! He treated her like a daughter and Stacy like a granddaughter. That's why Vanessa couldn't stand her. He was crazy about all the Reardons. He spent a lot of time at the boarding house. He and Bea--they never explicitly said it was romantic, but they certainly were loving friends. This sounds worse than Bert's funeral. I really did not think that was possible.
    • It always bothered me from the start that Nicole just took Mona's suggestion and never checked references.  A real psychiatrist would have done more before hiring someone. ** I like that Kat's reporter/investigative type instincts caused her to be suspicious of Eva from the start, and to try to spy on Eva and catch her as weeks went by. However, I think that Kat's so focused on what Eva did wrong -- that she won't see that Leslie is the master manipulator, making some things appear different than they actually are. I hope that Shanice's natural snoopy nature will get her to figure out what actually happened to Laura, and who really caused all the problems. *** edit to add: The show never specified what Mona's job was for Nicole.  Home manager?  Office manager?  Head personal assistant?  I'm sure there would have been a title?    Mona asserted today her upset with Eva and with Leslie.  That they used her and ruined her reputation.  I just wish I knew what Mona's job was. If Mona was an official manager, then it would have made sense for Nicole to trust the recommendation, if Nicole thought Mona had done a proper hiring procedure.  But if Mona is just an informal helper, then why wouldn't Nicole order a background check?
    • And I'm here for it.   Also...YES, PLEASE. 
    • Also, someone knocked over the head (usually in the D Mansion) and imprisoned in the secret tunnel room or whatever it was. I swear that must have happened at least a dozen times the last few years, and each time it drove me crazy!
