Y&R: In Support of Jess Walton!

I dont think Walton should get the same deal as Cooper.

Not because she is "less than" cooper or because cooper is older or anything like that.

Because i dont think just because one star gets this that every star does. each should be done differently, independently , and what one stars contract has should have no baring on another's.

ITA.

As for Jess receiving the Jeanne package: I guess this is exactly what is happening only different than you might think. My take is that Jeanne has an episode guarantee of ca. 80 episodes a year (with a high income though) but Jess still has numbers above 100 episodes which they probably want to cut back.

I get that. I feared that she'd say "whatever. Go to hell." Leave of her own accord instead of later, possibly phased out in a Julia Barr manner. I'm glad she signed, though, because I like Walton.

Heather Tom. Don Diamont. Jerry Douglas. Victoria Rowell.

extended departures of Lauren Woodland (I wish she'd stayed away), Eric Braeden, Melody Thomas, Sharon Case.

It hasn't gone all that well with these big deals.

She sure could have said f*ck off...I'm an earthy girl, and I'm ready to explore spirituality with my counselor husband.

The show has taken self-defeating entrenched positions before.

But you know, I just disagreed strongly with Brimike in the spoiler thread on this. He suggests this Walton-panic was an "overboard reaction"...but I suggested that it was an activistic response in a (justifiably) mistrusting audience.

Given how quickly this was resolved, one also wonders if the activism didn't help a smidge. I'll never know.

B&B eventually. DaytimeConfidential had a role for her picked out :)

I agree that if she'd made the choice to leave, it would have been basically a retirement move.

Anyway, she's staying. So, I'm gonna move on :)

    • Rewatching/binging THE X-FILES Seasons 1 and 2 (almost done). So much fun re-experiencing, especially re-discovering some of the monster-of-the-week stories. THE WEST WING Seasons 1 and 2 as well - so good to rewatch now with 20 years more life experience and understanding. ALSO.... lol FOOTBALLERS' WIVES Season 3, which is just as bonkers as I remember and so so so so fun. I had forgotten about that iconic season cliffhanger. Good times. Excited to rewatch Seasons 4 and 5 since I remember so very little about them. Hope you've been enjoying!
    • @Toups Tyler Topits listed in alpha order with the breakdown writers 5/12 Monday episode. O'Connor still listed as both breakdown and script writer. Kreizman wrote today's script.
    • Marland was long gone by this point.  He quit in either August/September 1982. I think it was due to letting the actress play out her contract and use her for party scenes and/or scenes with Phillip/Justin.   I was surprised she was still on in June 1983 myself, because I figured she had been written out before Pam Long joined the writing staff. Thankfully, having episodes uploaded during this period on Spauldingfield YT site has helped to connect some of the dots.  It looks as though Pam Long starts the first week or so of May 1983.. and in those first few weeks: Morgan and Evie were both written off and Lillian/Mindy/Billy/Beth/Annabelle all come onto the show.

    • I can't watch until later (Canada issues). What is Philip's motivation for stealing the drug? Only plot I cared about today and you did not mention it 
    • Doug III’s first day of work. Hope he does a good job… or that Tate tries to sabotage him somehow

      His scenes with Holly were nice though. They’re sweet together and I understand why some people think that they have more chemistry than Tate/Holly do. And I liked that Doug III opened up to her about his past. Maybe that could lead to something good happening in the future.  I also enjoyed Roman and Kate, and how they’re both being tied into EJ’s shooting. The mystery of it all is really compelling. I don’t think Roman is the shooter though either.  I didn’t have much sympathy for Kristen though. She has no one to blame for Rachel’s problems than herself. But at the same time, I’m really surprised that Days actually remembered the Alex/Kristen fling. I thought Ron had erased that from existence. I’m not shipping them at all, but I’m definitely shipping a permanent end to Brady/Kristen but after today, I’m not so sure about that either.  And, Johnny and Chanel were still great together
