What bothers me is how completely idiotic they are portraying Nick in the whole scenario. Each time Phyllis does something like this he gets all pissed off and before the end of the episode he's back to being her puppet again. They've totally emasculated him and it bugs the crap out of me.

I thought Nick was fantastic today, I did not feel he was emasculated at all, he said his vowed to his wife and I felt Nick's frustration and regret and acknowledgement that his actions contributed to the actions and reactions of his wife.IMO I thought Joshua Morrow held his own and was just fantastic

I am starting to think that Karen was the one who filed the missing person's report on Ana. Because of the filing, she and Neil got married earlier, and she now has a daughter. Interesting twist that sweet ole Karen could be manipulative, but I could see her past sadness causing her to become mentally unhinged because she feels threatened by Tyra.

If this is true, they need to turn Karen into the next best Y&R psycho! Filing that report is pretty intense for a jealous girlfriend!

:lol:

and yet you can wait for him to cheat on Phyllis with Sharon...and be back with Juliet were he was not emasculated...Sharon made him a eunuch....hell he took her back with no problem after she kissed his father and wanted more cause if "felt right"....

most other posters see Phyllis as being watered down since being paired with your boy, yet you blame Phyllis and MS for JM and Nick not getting the RECOGNITION he deserves...what recognition???? until paired with MS he was wallpaper...today's show was proof to me how far he has come and MS brings that out in him....and they together today KICKED ASS!!!!

For the first time in YEARS MS had me riveted to the screen. Her and PB's scenes were absolutely magnificent! Both brought their A games!

If they do end up doing something with Abby/Eden along the "Mean Girls" line, I think it'll be fascinating that Lauren will be Eden's "mother figure", considering Lauren is the original Y&R teen Mean Girl. I hope they don't forget that dynamic.

This is an incredible idea, and one that would immediately hook me in to Neil's story in a way I haven't been in a LOOOOOOOONG time.

Awww,

Gina

is on tomorrow. I wonder why they don't use her more, I wish some of these minor "sidekicks" would appear more often.

And

Clint - played by James Michael Gregary

appears tomorrow too. I guess they really kept this private (or didn't really care to publish the news).

And wow, no Colleen for 13 episodes in a row already. And she wasn't in 16 episodes in a row in December. They're not even trying! They're just keeping her name in the credits.

Oh good grief, JM was noticed long before he was paired with MS, he's had a frontburner s/l since being on the show.. It looks more like MS needed the notoriety of Phick, to keep her front and center than it did JM. Their scenes fell flat yesterday, Nick looked as though he could have cared less about what Phyllis was saying, in the end it all boiled down to Phyllis being told to deal with it, it is what it is.

I don't know what show you have been watching for the past 15 years, but Phyllis has never needed Nick to be a front burner actor....Nick and Sharon were ALWAYS supporting characters during their POWER OF TEN...background character who's only storyline was to cheat and sex it up to get back together to cheat again.....

JM has made COUNTLESS statements that working with Michelle has been the best thing for him as an actor...

reading ALL the different MB's after Monday's and Tuesday's episodes is proof enough that MS, PB and JM all brought their A game to their scenes on those days....alot of posters are already talking Emmy nominations for NEXT years Emmy's ..... guess you are in the minority....you only like JM when he is on the screen with SC....which tends to put viewers to sleep or better yet...change the channel.

let's wait till next week at this time when the ratings come out...

Yuck. I really hope we're not bringing the fanbase wars that dominate other sites onto SON. I come here to be disagreed with in some sort of rational way.

Not diggin' what I'm starting to observe in this thread.

Why can't people just agree to disagree? One person's opinion is not the end all and be all of whether Joshua and Michelle are good actors or not.

A lot of people hate Eric Braeden's acting because they think he mumbles. But I love him, ever since I was little. I'm not going to argue with those people because it won't change my opinion of him.

Why does it bother you so much? It's not as if Joshua and Michelle will get fired if 5 people from SON don't think neither of them can act.

I agree. I love Phick just as much as the next fan but I'm not for all the BS that comes with this Phick/Shick [!@#$%^&*]!

Y&R seems like it's getting good again, I might start watching full time

It goes both ways on this board. People can say they like so and so and they'll either get mocked for it, or they'll get baited. People are gonna bite back when they get baited........

I'm not nearly as irritated by Eden as others on SON are, but she really REALLY needs to stop running out the door like a petulant brat every time she overhears the tail end of something negative about her father. They've done it a few times the last few weeks, and it's really not doing her any favors.

LOVED Nikki telling Michael how Gloria deserves everything coming to her. Nikki was the voice of the audience in those scenes, and Janice Ferri Esser did a good job with that dialogue.

I love the subtle background music in Mike Denney's episodes, again, so glad he's back directing Y&R.
