Members marla0518 Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 sorry I can not watch LAME! I sometimes wish I could program my TIVO to just not record certain characters, there is nothing hot or sexual or passionate about them, they still look like a pedophile and his underage conquest.

Members marla0518 Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 I have a strange feeling that once Jack finds out about Billy and his WIFE, Jack is going to step up and be Chloe's confident, who knows maybe Chloe is the "new woman" in Jack's life.

Members baller Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 I love a good laugh this early in the morning!! Liz Hendrickson continues to impress me. She has really stepped up as an actor on Y&R and it shows----the last couple of days are alot stronger than she ever use to be on AMC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 Yeah, I figured he'd be looking beyond Daytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 OK, I know you guys are probably already on Canada's five-years-ahead episodes or whatever the heck they are showing up there in the frozen north. But I am still LMAO over Monday's bungled geriatric escape. Seeing Kay, Esther and Annie hobble towards the exit with all the speed of a sleeping snail was a Soap Moment I haven't seen since B&B's Sally Spectra "jumped" in slo-mo to take a bullet for Macy. Paul Rauch, you have won me over! And, yes, Lame are epicly boring. But at least Y&R does love scenes like its 1988! GH has abandoned theirs (unless it involves a limo and Sonny's zipper). And not to resurrect a dead argument re: The New Jill, aka Colleen, but it struck me on Tuesday that Jill seems to be on the road to mentoring Chloe.

Members dm. Posted March 4, 2009 Author Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 No, it will be 9,100th episode. While I am thrilled that Kate Linder is getting more airtime, every now and then it's visible that she hasn't done a lot of acting. Some of the sentences she has end up with the last word being said as if she's trying to remember what it was. She pauses for a second when she shouldn't and then says the remaining word. It's just a tiny nitpick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 Thanks, dmarex. I didn't think it was the 10,000th either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 I see that too...Jill is treating Chloe SO much better than she ever treated Nina. It's evident that Jill knows Billy is a bit of a sh*t and that Cane is off his rocker. I think Jess Walton and Elizabeth Hendrickson have wonderful chemistry.

Members lmfan Posted March 4, 2009 Members Share Posted March 4, 2009 I know most are loving this show, and don't mind Lauren and Michael as support but come on, Tracey Bregman and Christian Le Blanc are getting absolutely nothing to do on screen and it has been that way for awhile. Michael and Lauren are virtual non entity's at this point. They can't even get any good supporting scenes anymore. Michael is supposedly Katherine's lawyer, but we haven't seen him in a scene with her story since they took a DNA sample and he was lucky to get 2 minutes of screentime in that story. His big scene was steaming her outfit in the background one day. We haven't heard any reaction from Michael about the test results or Marge's disapppearance. Now he is Cane's lawyer and we saw Michael with Cane for one scene for three seconds when Cane said he was getting a divorce and wanted custody, but again no follow up. I am used to Michael's personal life with Lauren happening mostly off screen, but now Michael as a lawyer is off screen. If they want Michael as a supporting character fine, but use the actor for God's sake. Christian Le Blanc and Tracey Bregman are being totally wasted on this show. They are off screen more than on and their "big" story is when they have scenes with Eden every few weeks. Are Tracey and Christian being positioned to be the next vets to be written off the show? Nobody misses them, the writers could care less about them, and most of the time fans forget they are even on this show unless they pop up in an episode.

Members classicmoment Posted March 5, 2009 Members Share Posted March 5, 2009 Alot of people have been backburnered a bit in sacrifice of these stories. Am sure CLB will be doing more now that Gloria is out of jail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lmfan Posted March 5, 2009 Members Share Posted March 5, 2009 But why must CLB as Michael and TEB as Lauren always, always dance to the Fisher tune? Who are the long term vets? Not Kevin and Gloria. I think Judith Chapman and Greg Rikkhart are good actors, but I am sick of Michael and Lauren being used, for nearly five years, to clean up after them. I am tired of Michael and Lauren being backburned unless Kevin and Gloria have a story. It is like wash, rinse and dry with Michael and Lauren. They can only have a romantic scene if Gloria is around to interrupt them. They only exist to sigh, get aggravated, and then fix the problems of their family and on occassion their friend Phyllis. The writers put little effort into Michael and Lauren. Christian and Tracey can play what they are given in their sleep. They are given very little challenging acting to do and all the meaty material for that family, except for the occassional episode (i.e. Michael's "It's a Wonderful Life" episode and Lauren/Tracy Abbott scenes) are given to Judith and Greg. It is great that all these other vets are getting story and we love how Maria Bell respects history, yet who cares about Lauren Fenmore and Michael Baldwin. What are they and their portrayers chopped liver? What did they do to get on the bad side of Maria Bell? I know they aren't a Newman, Chancellor or Abbott, but Bill Bell loved these actors and valued these characters and now they do nothing except sit home, lecture Eden, fold laundry and wait for a family member to screw up.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 5, 2009 Members Share Posted March 5, 2009 ....that's the dilemma of being a happily married couple on a soap. Not to mention, I never thought Michael and Lauren's relationship had much substance to start with. They could easily be broken up and moved to separate orbits on this show. I don't buy them as a real couple, but I can buy them as friends. I never thought their relationship was properly developed, and their initial courtship was used as a plot device to show how far Michael's come, it didn't benefit Lauren or added much to the overall relationship.
