SHE turned Jana and Kevin into criminals? They were both born criminals. She may have brought out something they've been trying to hide.

Amber and Daniel are fine together if you ask me, but there isn't much they're doing. It's too obvious Graz won't be here for long, and a recast wouldn't work right now. Maybe Jana will go nuts one day if Amber and Kevin hook up or something.

Oh you betcha, Rhi!!! I am THRILLED!!! Plus, with Kay and Jill not related, my Billy and Mac can FINALLY be back together again!!! It's just sad that it probably won't be AshBash that plays Mac.. :( Billy Miller is a great nuBilly. And with him I don't really need David Tom back (although I loved Tom so much as Billy too).

But I have yet to see an actress that can replace AshBash as Mac... I don't think that can be done, to tell you the truth.

But I am sooo happy!! :D

You are, in fact, mistaken. The Kay and Jill are Mother and Daughter storyline was Jack Smith's, it aired in 2003 which was the zenith of his work.

I don't give a flying damn about the first DNA test. That was during the LML period which, to me, is basically rewritable. It was sh*t to begin with!

Absolutely agree.

Kay and Jill being related is the BIGGEST MISTAKE Y&R ever enacted and it's a show that has been, comparatively, flawless. I am just so happy that it appears MAB had the guts (and that's what it is, guts) to rewrite the most massive creative error the show ever experienced.

So again, YOU GO MAB! DON'T YOU DARE UNDO YOUR BRILLIANT TWIST!

No the unabortion was worse. The Jill/Kay being mother and daughter never made me quit watching Y&R and refuse to ever watch it again. Having the most historic abortion in tv history overturned, with an implanted embryo transplant, something that is not medically possible or isn't done today, was the most disgusting thing I have heard of in my life.

And Daytime fan, I'm glad if JackAss can be blamed for that blunder too. I still think it was a major mistake to kill off Cassie to give his pet an Emmy reel. Sure there is still fallout from it but the same could have been done with Cassie laying in a permanent coma like Carly's kid on GH.

    • Thank you very much for the information!!! All the episodes that person sells are the ones which appear or have appeared in youtube, and some have wrong dates.  Due to that, I guess some people, who have rare and inedite episodes, refuse to upload them in internet, because then, others make money. I hope ABC create a place in the net where we can see all the available episodes they must have, as Retro tv did with the Doctors!!!! Retro tv did an awesome job!!!! Have a look :

    • Dina was Jack, Ashley and Tracy's mom on Y&R.  Joanna was Lauren Fenmore's mother, played by Susan Seaworth-Hayes.
    • The funeral was not onscreen - only the Brooks returning home after the service. Not aware of any available clips.
    • Very very well said!!!

      I would only add that Sam Ratcliff is frequently named in regards to certain AW comedic turns.  And, we know from Carolyn Culliton (tweet 2024) that Sam & Gary put their heads together & came up with that gorilla.  
    • I knew you would be so excited seeing your girl Brookey as #1!!!! She also WINS as to Frequently Married!!!  
    • Yes, Stacy does this both for early DAYS & early GH. I have written some for her, for DAYS. But just one tiny point & that is that she only deals with DVDs. I realize that is not the point of your posting but it seemed the right thing to clarify. I know that you know that video tapes is past, not present.
    • Hahahha I think sleeping with almost all of your daughters's boyfriends and husbands and getting pregnant... definitely gives Brooke the right to top 1 place. Long live the whore of Beverly hills.

    • CurlyQGrl has DVDs of some episodes, that they can sell, but that doesn't matter. What is helpful: they describe the scenes on the tapes, so you can read that as recaps without ordering anything. Doesn't really give storylines, though, which is what you asked for.  Here's the links anyhow. full menu https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/menu.html GH page https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/gh/menu.html GH 1960s https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/gh/eps/gheps1960s.htm
    • I would argue that Another World never played "everything" for laughs. Even when there were comedic scenes in some storylines there were other storylines that were not intended as comedy.  You give 1988 as the end point, and Mary was on the canvas from August 1986 to February 1989, so she must have overlapped with the despised laughs you are referring to at least half of the time she was there. I honestly can't recall any real comedy that Mary would have been part of. I don't think she was lighthearted about choosing between two husbands, MJ's prostitution, Kathleen's death, or even her son Scott dating her daughter Cheryl.  I would have said that the amount of comedy depended on the head writer and there was more comedy under Richard Culliton and Gary Tomlin in 1984 than subsequent headwriters. I guess there was an outbreak of more comedy when Cecile kidnapped Cass from his wedding in 1986, but in general the Sin Stalker wasn't presented as funny, Mitch's return wasn't funny, John's arrival wasn't funny, Reginald wasn't funny. The tone was serious even if the plots verged on the ludicrous. And maybe that's what you mean -- but I would make a distinction between intentional comedy and storylines I can't take seriously for other reasons.
