I thought that too. It backs up my "hanging him from the balcony" image. I figured he cried and wet his pants when he was being dangled over the pavement and decided to use the AM reference as a form of passive-aggressive pushback. I think Helmut may have to pay him another visit.

On another topic: YAY for the return of RJ! Glad to see someone at OLTL has at least a partially functional frontal lobe.

It would help if he told this Jillian exactly what parts she should enjoy watching. Boring Starr? The horrible Gigi? Boring Marty? The way they've turned the Buchanans into self-righteous brats?

This is something which I see with OLTL and various soap columnists, people say the show is on fire, or is brilliant, but I don't actually see solid discussion of what works and doesn't work on the show. This means if a new viewer does tune in, they're more likely to see the show as wildly overhyped, not a work in progress, and tune back out.

That's exactly what I said! Reminded me of Leven all galled talking about her temp recast playing HER part, and here we knew both Lilies before either actress even knew her own name. See, this is why I hate young people.

The thing is Paul Rauch does not put up with any BS. He has been in this business for almost 40 years and he is known as one of the hardest, toughest, and demanding executive producers ever. He has been known to make people cry on the set, he is that hard. Even Laura Koffman said when she first auditioned for Cassie in front of Paul Rauch she prepared herself well but OMG she said he was so intimidating. Paul only demands excellence and is so old school. It is great daytime has brought someone who has been in this business for so many years and is doing old classic soap. IMO Rauch has been the perfect fit for Y&R. Griffith is a writer not a producer and it showed onscreen. The show looks 10 times more expensive under Rauch. It is so lush, gorgeous, and the old Y&R music is back. Going back to the Bell way of doing it and that is why Y&R is so successful. Rauch has been a match made in heaven for Y&R. Maria Arena Bell is getting all this credit when pre-Paul the show was so blah and BORING. I got Christel does not like Paul, Paul is not there to do with whiny immature kids. He wants you to work and work very very hard.

My money is on Helmet, he's her 'heavy' in every other situation. Funny thing is, I can actually sort of see La Lucci ordering something like that...maybe it's because she played a Mafia princess in some 80s TV movie, maybe it's because she's so polished in her behavior that you just *know* she's got another side to her, maybe it's because she's half Italian and has money and lives in New York...or maybe it's just because No One [!@#$%^&*] With Susan Lucci and that's the bottom line...
