Y&R: Week of January 26, 2008


Recommended Posts

Kevin Schmidt is a great little actor. I want to say he's the future of Y&R but in the current climate? I don't dare.

And Brad's scenes with everybody on Wednesday -- Ashley, Victor, Faketoria, Nikki and Traci were so good. DD and BM had such lovely scenes together. As for BrAsh, I cannot believe Ash is selling Brad down the river like this. I actually got chills at this part:

Brad: So did I just hear that right? A family portrait? What are you trying to do, Ash? Rewrite history? Do I have to remind you again and again, I am Abby's father. I'm her father.

Ashley: I know that. And so is Victor. And he has every right to have a relationship with her, Brad. Look, I know this isn't easy for you, and I feel for you.

Brad: You know what? Don't. Don't make this about me. It's not about me. It's about Abby. It's about what's best for our daughter. The kind of values that we want to instill in her. What are you teaching her? That--that relationships can just be cast aside like an old pair of jeans that have gone out of style? Or is it that--that the father who buys her the most gifts gets the coveted title of Dad?

Team Brad!

P.S.: I'm sad that Brad may be leaving but so far Y&R are writing him a send-off.

Sorry guys but WHAT A SNOOZE.

I hold Y&R at a higher bar productionwise but this lake/Brad/Noah stuff was like something on ABC.

What absolute boring production this week. I enjoy the writing and the parallel with Cassie- but the plot was not served well at all productionwise. Boring, uninspired, and lazy.

Sheesh.

Hey Rhiannon- She rings like a bell in the night and who will be her lover-

Its Botox. They need to dump Sharon Case's head in some powder before shooting.

Nicole Kidman Syndrome.

I have had Botox and it made my forehead tight and slick as that icy river Noah fell in. lolllllllll

They have been funkifying Sharon with those awful chunky ass necklaces too.

They didn't go all out with the production, which sucked.

However, I did enjoy the episode overall. As mentioned the parallel with Cassie was a great touch, as were the flashbacks they used when Sharon as writing her letter.

I also thought Joshua Morrow actually attempted to act in this episode, which he hasn't done in FOREVER. He wasn't great, but he tried.

I have never been a Morrow fan. I hold him in the same esteem as David Fumero. Guy who got VERY lucky.

However, Nick and Sharon- I like them together. Very believable as a couple who married young, ect...

Without the Cassie aspect and the very well written scene with Phyllis setting that whole parallel up, this episode would have been the worst in a year. Considering how good it should have been- I am not impressed. But hell, its January.

yay another Brad/Sharon fan. I loved her and Nick and was sad to see them end, but the only good thing out of that would have been seeing her with Brad. I cant beleive they tortured us with Nick/Phyllis for all these years but couldnt throw the Brad/Sharon fans a bone. I hated when she took that horrible detour with Jack which never should have happened. Theres no need to get rid of Brad bc theres unresolved issues with Sharon that can and should still be explored

    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
