Members dm. Posted February 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 I started liking her in January 2008, since I didn't watch the LML coma-fest, where she was bonding with Daniel (it really was a friendship that seemed interesting) who tried to become closer to her, but she kept rejecting him. There was something about her, being an underdog; shielding her feelings from the rest of the world. I guess it was because she had just found her father or something. We don't know much about her time away from Genoa City except her college years. When she hooked up with Adam, they were just so hot and even later I liked their stories. It's the writers that kind of ruined it. The character could use a bit of a spark, sure, but she is a lot smarter and not so dimwitted like some. Plus, it helps a lot that the actress is hot. I am not the type of the fan that would start to defend Vail as soon as someone attacked her. I am aware of her deficiencies and I'm not trying to hide that. I just don't think she's so bad that they need to remove her from out screens. But if they eventually removed her from the show, I'd get over it soon.

Members DeeeDee Posted February 19, 2009 Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 Vail's grown quite a bit. While not as good as Liz Hendrickson or Emily O'Brien she's miles better than Khalil & Sursok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 19, 2009 Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 Oh, definitely, that goes without saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted February 19, 2009 Administrator Share Posted February 19, 2009 ITA with you man, and yeah, Vail being hot does help. I wish they would stop having her going up against Victor because it's totally unbelievable. I'm always like, "She's going to take down Victor? Yeah right." LOL I hope when she comes back, they will take Heather in a different direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted February 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 Thanks Toups. I do believe that many have grown to hate Heather just because she keeps going against Victor. It's the writers' fault. Already next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 19, 2009 Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 I don't know, Heather's lacked anything resembling a stable personality since Latham introduced her. She should get out of the legal world and stop being so damn uptight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted February 19, 2009 Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 I like Heather. When I see Val, she just screams bitch. She has that look about her and I get that in her voice too. I think Heather is too nice of a role for her and I wish they'd give her more of an edge. She has potential and I want them to make her more bitchy. A little crazy wouldnt hurt either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted February 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 So maybe they could take than seemingly un-stable personality and give her a bit of a spark or something. They should do some sort of a character development especially after everything Adam had done to her. Ahh yes, being uptight... it's one of the things that I liked about her, it made her just a little bit different than other more "loose" girls. She doesn't seem to be the overly-friendly type. Maybe that's where she's a bit similar to me or something, I don't know. That is a good idea. But the question is... do the writers have the time or need to invest in the character? Or are they just waiting for time to pass and let her go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted February 19, 2009 Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 Does Heather even have any friends? Ive only ever seen her in serious DA mode or together with Adam or Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted February 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 She had that little friendship thing with Daniel for a few seconds and then bam... done. She never had a girl friend or anything similar to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 19, 2009 Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 No, most people seemingly can't stand her. When she was introduced, she was treated as somewhat of a social outcast. She has problems relating to people in her age group, which she's admitted to.

Members dm. Posted February 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 I do understand those type of people, maybe that's why I like her. She has problems relating and most people (even the viewers) see that as being self-involved, when actually it isn't like that. It's easier for people to assume that a standoffish person is rude rather then take time to approach the person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted February 19, 2009 Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 I'm fine with Heather playing a supporting role, she just needs a little more personality. Although, if Vail left or if they wanted to recast or write the character off, I wouldn't mind. I like that Y&R has a stable of supporting characters, it adds something to the main storylines going on. Where's BadZoe with her assessment of Heather? I'm of the opinion that she can't stand the girl either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
