Y&R: Week of January 19, 2009

[Y&RWorldTurner]

He returned to Toronto somewhere in 2005.

Very rarely has Paul mentioned little Ricky, and yes, he's still living with Isabella's family.

Come to think about it, how many years has it been since Jack's mentioned Keemo?

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Oh, I forgot to mention, Katherine finally got laid today. When was the last time she got some? Was it Rex? LOL!

[y&r_fan]

It was good to see Colleen back today. Is it me or has TS gotten better in the role? I didn't hear the accent at all. Maybe she's been working with a voice coach or something.

Oh, and the Phyllis/Sharon scenes: GOLD.

[DeeeDee]

It really was.

Case & Stafford are doing great.

Arthur.

[AllAboutAngst]

I thought he was so cute!

[Paul Raven]

Whatever your opinion of Tammin,it is strange that Colleen has been completely ignored for months.

She is part of the next generation of Abbotts(like Billy) and more important than the likes of Amber or Jana.They either need to send her off to live with her mom or give her something to do.

There's plenty of ways she could be involved even if the writers don't want to commit to a big story at this time.she's not even seen waitressing at Crimson Lights.

What is her relationship with Abby?

How does she feel about Brad and Sharon?

By the way,why isn't she living with Brad?

The same applies to Victoria,who pops in once in a while.I understand that characters need to be backburned but it's too much.

[Cashton]

Gosh - all the couples on the show are so good! Kay and Murphy are by far the best. Their relationship is so real and intimate. I only wish Murphy could have been featured in the "Men We Love" RS issue! Ha! The Billy/Lily/Chloe/Cane quad is on fire too. Cane/Lily are "keepers" - safe and sound, but dreadfully boring. Billy and Chloe know that their relationship would be turbulent and they don't trust each other - but they're clearly in love. Paul and Nikki (can we call them Pikki?) seem are cool. Looks like a s/l is brewing for JT and victoria at last. I sense a return to JT's wild side is in the works. If only a return for Heather Tom was also in the works as well...sigh.

I knew Clint was going to try to kill Kay! February sweeps are going to be GOOOODD!

I've said it before, but it is worth repeating, Chloe and Billy are golden. They suck me in even though I'm not particularly keen on Y&R at the moment. They are definitely in love and jealous of their current boring significant others. I love how they snark at each other and tease each other. WHen Once they get together, they are going wreck havoc on Genoa City and I can't wait. I loved that Jack was looking out for Billy. They both need each other as an ally. When Cane and Lily get together, they are going to end up on the backburner just like J.T. and Victoria.

I noticed the Aussie accent more than ever and wondered if she was even bothering at all anymore.

Most people were dressed well, but Sharon looked like a badly wrapped gift left over from Christmas. The pattern of the shirt, the tie at the waist and then an ugly broach to top it off.

Also what is up with the ugly jewelry, especially the necklaces, gold and jeweled alike. Phyllis had a horrible necklace at the party that looks like it was designed by the same person who designed Sharon's miss matched broaches on a string she was wearing in New York. Well except for Jill, I liked the purple necklace she had on the other day, simple and elegant.

I still can't believe that Amber is one of my favorite characters on Y&R. It is amazing how changing shows has turned this character into a real heroine, likable and acting like her age. When she was on B&B she was horrible and all she was interested in was using babies to trap men. Her relationship with Katherine is really touching.

Chloe and Billy are my favorites. Their chemistry is so fun and sexy. It just goes to highlight how both have to prop up the lameos they are paired with.

[Toups]

I'm glad they're taking is slow too. I just love their scenes. I think Y&R knows they struck gold with Billy/Liz H.

[y&r_fan]

Really? Wow. I noticed some slippage the last time she was on, but not today.

[rangethatrover]

I am really loving this Kay storyline more and more. I think it is the best plotted storyline in the last decade- on any show. I was so disappointed when it appeared to be winding down when Kay started to get her memory back. I though for sure sure that Nikki would believe her!

But sure enough, as if Bill Bell was writing this show it took off in another direction. Kay is back in the trailer with her new lover , Esther has been totally revitalized in a completely fun way, You have Clint back in a completely ingenious way- taking his 2nd shot at fortune. It is suspenseful and you can feel Maria Bell's complete confidence in the audience to stay along for the ride.

They are not rushing it- they are building suspense in a logical way- and this storyline has never once gotten boring..

Pretty close to perfect.

Some of the other parts of the show I could care less about, but I have always felt that way about any show I watch.

But this Kay storyline, and Nick and Sharon- good stuff.

Also, They should have tried to get this Shiva Rose chick (who was quite appealing actually, much to my surprise) to play a new fictional character. Preferably a slighty psycho one. She could be excellent.

[JackPeyton]

Id love to have Scotty back.

paul has a son named Ricky? Really?

next thing i know you will tell me Jack has one named Keemo....

Its just you, lol.

[dm.]

Well, since Maria has been correcting all those mistakes, maybe some day in the future we'll get Keemo.

And yeah, no improvement visible on TS. It's only wishful thinking, I guess. I wonder what they will do with Colleen

.

[BadZoe]

Permanently hiding in her room smoking pot!!

They can't just bring back Scotty and Keemo unless they are going to pair them together. After they've bedded Lily of course.
