Wow - Don has ALREADY been removed from the opening credits. His shot was replaced with Kristoff's today. Too bad they won't add new cast members that quickly.

That's not a surprise, they're always good with removing people, but horrible with adding people. I seem to recall both Eileen Davidson and Victoria Rowell being removed fast too, yet even since Eileen's been back, they've had no intention of adding her back.

Y&R has always been HORRIBLE when updating their opening credits though. I love how Michelle Stafford, for example, was never added to the red jazzy porn opening that lasted until 2003. LOL!

I am SO glad that people are calling Nick out on his hypocritical bullshit. The line of the day goes to Michael for this gem: "nicholas Newman may want something but that doesn't mean he's going to get it." Tomorrow's scenes with

Noah

look especially delicious. Let him have it!

Yes, completely ridiculous..... Y&R with its budget you would think would be more on the ball. I put great stock in opening credits too so it kind of brings the show down slightly in my book :P

Hopefully Paul Rauch and MAB will get on that. I'd love a homage to the theme they had in the late 80's-90's.

Yeah, as I mentioned earlier, you could see then signs today that something is wrong with Sharon, especially in those scenes with Jack about Noah, and when Nick called her. Then when she was in tears at the end, something is really wrong with her.

I don't mind Nick and Sharon being overprotective of Noah, I'd expect nothing less given their experience with Cassie.

Nick was such an ass to Lauren in that scene where he accused her and Michael of leaving their liquor cabinet open for Eden to steal and give to Noah. But that's pretty much in tune with so many parents, they always place the blame someplace else, instead of realizing their kids are flawed people too.

I am impatient when it comes to the credits... I wish they found a way to update them regularly.

They said they'd get on it..... but somehow I don't see it happening that soon.

Maria said on the Paris trip they were looking to update or create a new opening soon. But who knows if that will happen...

The only real update in recent months they've done is that new frame of Neil, which surprised the hell out of a lot of us.

If they removed Brad easily, they could have just as easily re-added the old shot of Ashley. Also, where is Esther? All stars from 1973 to 2005 (minus Heinle and Khalil) are there.

I don't know, I recall an interview with Tonya Lee Williams a few months back where a fan asked her about the opening. She said that the casts jokes about it constantly, and apparently, it costs them money to add people, or something strange like that. But the production people always good with removing people, they just never add anyone.

I don't understand what's so hard about it. B&B seems to be quite ready to adjust their opening whenever someone new is on contract or whenever someone is dropped from contract (which is, of course, a regular occurrence).

You would think that Y&R, with a bigger budget than other soaps, would be able to update it. It's frustrating.

My guess is someone who is in charge of this isn't doing their job.

This isn't a recent thing, other openings in the past took forever to be updated, no matter who was the EP of the show at the time.

Today's episode is really, really good. Jill can really be an unpleasant bitch at times, I swear. I don't see how Esther could stand to live in that house with her.

Kudos to Phyll for choosing to take the high road and be the rational one in this situation. I thought for sure she'd lose her [!@#$%^&*] all over Nick, but she impressed me. Go 'head, girl, show him that he ain't nuthin!

Katherine and Murphy are so great together. When/if Katherine ever gets back home and stays there, Jill is going to be one frigid, rigid b-word to everyone she sees. She needs action, real bad. Victor might could use some wild oat-sowing.

Oh, and I can't be the only one sick and tired of Nick blaming everything Noah does on Eden. A penis does not do ALL of your thinking!

IMO, Phylis should have talked to Michael before she went running to Brad, but so be it. I won't say what I think Drucilla would've been doing weeks ago, but lets just say Sharon wouldn't have had that fancy wardrobe. You don't mess with crazy people, and married men are sometimes married to crazy wives.

Who cares if Nick runs to Sharon at this point? I thought the he said he was in love with both of them?

I'm not that bothered by the opening. It kinda gives me a sense of continuity, and I don't mind that it's not updated that often. Actually, I'm not even looking forward to a new one. I'm afraid it would turn out to be something dreadful like the 'red porn opening' was to some, or Rauch's openings at GL were to me (but compared to Conboy's opening, they were gold).

That's so true. And I speak from experience with my own two sons. You never want to think it's YOUR kid that's the problem. LOL

Sharon Case was great today...she's edging into Sharon's breakdown really well, not going too far too fast. I continue to be impressed with her day in and day out.

I could have gone to art school, learned to draw and gotten my masters in the time it takes Y&R to update their opening. Photoshop has come a long way since they first had the excuse that it was too expensive to update it often. What are they doing, filming it on gold?

Poor Sharon, if she didn't need to find herself, no one would be dead. She's right to go nuts and blame herself for once.

Esther is dumb, dumb, dumb and I hope hers is the next funeral.
