BTW, I wish Michael Grazadei had as vocal and strong a fanbase (now there is a talented young actor). Maybe that would encourage him to stay on when his contract comes up for renewal in a couple of months.

I think you're wrong here, Cat.

Graz is popular and TPTB are aware of it but I think the decision has been made some months ago that he won't renew. Maybe he even got CBS deal in his pocket who knows but I would be highly surprised to see more of Graz come May. That's why he's phased out right now...

......................................... As for Daniel, I honestly think he needs an affair with an older woman at some point to really bring him from the College Crowd to Y&R's adult roster.
If you think about it where Daniel is concerned---Amber is the older woman.

Isn't it funny how Amber is 29 and not considered the adult roster?

IMO Y&R made a big mistake moving the Amber character over from B&B age intact and then somehow down playing her age. They missed a great opportunity to address the age difference when Amber and Phyllis were at it. Imagine what Phyllis would have done with the knowledge that Amber was much older than Daniel.

I don't see a lot of point in being vocal about Daniel. The character has always been one of my favorites but the fact that they haven't used him at all in the last year, despite still being under contract, says to me that they don't care about the actor and character and want the audience to stop caring as well. Hopefully he finds better when he does go. Although if Daniel does need an older woman's touch, Sharonitwitheveryone could teach him a thing or two.

I'm not a fan of Amber and Kevin just jumping into bed together. As someone said, why can't they just have friendships without screwing. My exception being if they are all screwing together, Amber did do Porn after all.

I loved that scene too with Amber and Chloe. Amber forgets though that she can't have children. She has one kidney and when she was on B&B I had hoped they would kill her off by having her insist on a baby. Now that she's on Y&R and I like her, they should not have her try. Also, why can't some people be in relationships without babies? Especially people like Amber who have yet to be in a relationship for longer than a year.

Chloe is stunning when they pull her hair back a bit and play up her beautiful/expressive eyes with a bit of eyeliner. I never even realized EH looks a lot like Keira Knightley until someone here pointed that out.

I'm glad Jill has learned from Nina that being kind to the mother of her grandchild will pay dividends. I am not a fan of this "do the right thing" attitude that says that people should get married just because of the baby and not for love. Although, in this case I like it because Cane is a turd and Billy and Chloe need to keep him away from that baby. At least they do have the potential to fall in love. Very interesting that he told her he can't be monogamous. Do the Lily/Billy fans think that he would be monogamous with her? It took him 2 whole seconds to jump Sharon's bones despite this great love some people are seeing. I've also yet to see him yearning for her or she for him.

I liked the love scene between Lily and Cane. If they insist on keeping the current actors they might as well have them do what they do best, clothes off and no lines!!!

Woo hoo for Phyllis seeing Sharon stealing the picture. Hopefully she'll put two and two together and realize who stole the books and let Eden take the fall. Sharon really is a hypocrite considering that when her and Nick were together, he did so many stupid things and even wound up in Jail because of her lies.

The connect from Kevin/Murphy seeing Clint's name in the letter to Amber/Clint, and then to Amber/Daniel/Gina to learn about Clint/Marge's back story was REALLY well-orchestrated.

Anyways I LOVED Jack's scenes with the baby and Chloe. Especially how he welcomed her to the family. I expected him to come off false but it sounded really genuine and I think it's a credit to PB's acting skills. Plus I think Jack as a character truly does feel like Chloe is a member of the family thru Cordelia and as such will go all out to make her feel welcome.

HOPEFULLY Billy can rise to the occasion. I hate how they have him looking so indecisive and so much like a child.

Huh? Red have you gone over to the dark side? I'm very disappointed in Jack (my favorite Genoa City resident, next to Lily and Billy) he looked so fake and phony talking to Kate Valentine. Jack as been lobotomized like everyone else singing the praise of this deceiver. I'm so disappointed in the writers; they can't seem to write a realistic storyline regarding Kate Valentine. This girl needs to be punished for bad behavior, giving her what she wanted (William "Billy" Abbott) the whole time is not punishment.

Please, other characters have done worse on this show and gotten a slap on the wrist, all Chole did was tell a big lie. She didn't murder, rape, kidnap, or torture someone physically.

I agree. Chole is the ideal flawed soap anti-heroine. I really am falling in love with Liz and her portrayal of the character. Such depth compared to Maggie on AMC.

She interfered with SAINT Lily's happiness a crime that should be punishable by death. ;)

I apologize in advance you guys, but it was me specifically being attacked and as some of you know, I don't take these things lying down.

Well since it's fine to call people delusional then I guess I'll say you're delusional for thinking your opinion is the final say on the matter.

y&r fan is entitled to believe what he wants to believe and he's not delusional for thinking Colleen could possibly be the next Jill. You're just attacking him for no other reason than the fact that he likes Colleen as usual...

Yes it's the internet but that doesn't mean you should act like a jerk. Which you clearly seem intent on doing to provoke a reaction.

First of all, the whole intention of my post was to say that everyone is entitled to their opinion, but if you go & post it on the net, prepare for disagreement. I never said my opinion was the final say on the matter- you are the one that has chosen to make that distinction. I posted my opinion and then defended it when criticized for it. Secondly, I said that the obsessive fangirls were the delusional ones and yes, that if you think Colleen is the next Jill, you are delusional. I wasn't calling the poster delusional, but rather the post. And guess what? That's my perogative, that's my opinion and I gave it. I didn't do so to provoke a reaction- I did it because that's what I honestly think.

For someone who clearly can't stand me, my opinions, or my posts, you give me an awful lot of power.

I'm not getting defensive over any of the actors. I don't favor one over the other. I see them all as being decent actors (for the most part save Daniel Goddard who isn't all bad if I'm honest).

I'm getting defensive over the double standard and holier than thou posters who seem to think that their opinion is somehow on the right side of sanity while anyone else who dares to disagree is somehow loony or does not have any legitimate basis for their claim. As in calling someone delusional...? Is that really necessary? I get that you don't agree. That''s fine and all. You're entitled to disagree as much as you want. I don't see the point of calling him delusional though. And I definitely don't see why you need to roll your eyes at him or act all supercilious as if your opinion is straight from the Soap Opera Bible and cannot be questioned...

I'll say it again- HOLY CRAP! Will you lighten the hell up? Again, I wasn't outright calling him delusional, I just stated that in my OPINION, to think Colleen is the next Jill is delusional, blinded by an obvious love of the actress. I LOVE Marcy Walker, but I don't go around saying she's the next Meryl Streep, Judi Dench, etc....

Anyway, this is all off topic and getting old. If you want to disagree with my posts, by all means, you may. But YOU are the one doing the provoking because you're not attacking my posts, you're attacking my character. Even if I may think it, I have yet to call you a jerk or any other derogatory name, nor have I called you a 'holier than thou poster' even if I may think it to be true. So how bout we try sticking to the topic and disagreeing with one another's opinions on all things Y&R rather than attacking posters you don't like. Did you really come out of lurkdom just to give posters a piece of your mind? Because that's the way it comes off.

As for Y&R, I haven't seen but 5 minutes of it today because of all the noise in my house. But I DID see Crazy Sharon which made me :) . I love the way Phyllis was sizing her up- Me thinks Jack's not the only one who sees that Sharon is cracking up. Be back later after I watch the show! ;)

LOL...I'm still on the Light Side I promise!

I don't think Chloe should be put to death for what she did. However the last big to do besides Gloria was Phyllis's trial regarding her blackmail of Brad which was blown out of proportion and brought out all sorts of crazies. You'd think that Phyllis had committed the Holocaust by the way they were yelling for her to go to jail. Regarding Jack/Chloe I think Jack looked very sincere though. Even today he was clearly trying to make Chloe feel comfortable with Billy. And as far as punishment I think the writers are doing the right thing. Chloe is in love with a guy who clearly could not care less about her right now....

I mean think about it...Chloe was stuck in that relationship with Cane (if you could call that hellhole/vortex that is Cane a relationship) for months knowing all along that he was all gaga over Lily. Now she's sorta with Billy yet Bill doesn't want her either. I think it's karma for her butt. And hopefully she'll grow from this. I don't see her as the perfect heroine however and I don't think she's Phyllis in any shape or form.

Amber on the other hand is clearly on the Phyllis path and I love her for it.

And as far as Amber's age yeah she's supposed to be in her 30s but it's a soap and I'm more than willing to believe that my girl Amber is in her early 20's! How old is AF in real life?

Victor giving Noah that car for his bday was awesome! Love every single moment of The Newmans. Sharon continues to lose it....loved Phyllis seeing her towards the end.

@ Juniorz

The whole point of yoru post(s) was to deride and attack so forgive me for just following your example.

I agree, the comparison is wrong on so many levels and Colleen/TS does not even measure up to Jill/JW!!

Unlike Adrianne Leon, the best actress ever to grace daytime television with her presence, right? :rolleyes:

And, sorry, but anyone who thinks that Colleen is capable of being the new Jill is delusional.

Well, thanks for clearing that up. Now that you've informed me of that absolute, unquestioned fact, I'll go and check myself into a mental asylum. :)

They'd be better served comparing Sursok to an actress or character in the same ballpark as she. Charity Rahmer comes to mind.

Wow, maybe we could have adjoining cells!

Sorry, but comparing Tammin Sursok to Charity Rahmer is like comparing Meryl Streep to Erin Sanders.

Well since it's fine to call people delusional then I guess I'll say you're delusional for thinking your opinion is the final say on the matter.

y&r fan is entitled to believe what he wants to believe and he's not delusional for thinking Colleen could possibly be the next Jill. You're just attacking him for no other reason than the fact that he likes Colleen as usual...
