ATWT: April discussion


Recommended Posts

  • Members

^^^^Tell me about it....I've had three god-damned years of waiting around hoping for a Carjack reunion. Marked by six months of Carly/Simon suck, a YEAR of Jack/Katie suck, five months of Carly/Holden suck overlapping with Jack/Janet suck overlapping Carly/Craig SUCK.

I had like a month of Carly and Jack not fighting during that entire time (when they were trying to get Parker cleared for killing Sam); two sex drive-bys (with no afterglow) and a near miss; and two weeks where Carly got support from Jack when she honestly thought she was dying.

MEANWHILE....Paul and Meg have had about fifteen reunions, and Katie's a happily married woman (which just annoys me), and Nuke in all their "glory" (which annoys me more).

I just get the feeling if Carly and Jack weren't "Carjack", they'd have six weeks of "turmoil" then reunite and "be happy"...like every other god-damned couple on this show.

re: my last post.....hello, everybody....my name is PJ, and I'm a Carjackaholic. *hangs head*

I may have to revise my opinion of the Ztwin actors. They may be okay actors stuck in a very bad story. OTOH, VH and JS are just bad, ham-filled actors sucking the life out of their story. Nothing was more painful to watch than Noah, tied up and yelling out "don't you hurt Luke!!" Unless, of course, it was Luke trying to bitchslap his father today. I swear to God, watching him stomp over to Damian like God-freakin'-zilla reminded me of Martha Byrne on one of her tears.

WTH??? Vienna at three months looks more pregnant than Maura does IRL.

LOL moment of the day----Henry calling Brad a "monkey-wrench"...I was DYING to hear him add "tool". ALL of Katie's men are tools.

Hell must be freezing over alert----TOMORROW!!! SUSAN appears!!!! Now, if we only could squeeze in Kim this week, we'd hit the Pick 5!!

I didn't see the previews. SUSAN appears tomorrow?! Damn, just a few months ago, she was turning in some fairly regular appearances (by recurring standards, at least). Come Monday, all of the vets will return to Siberian Russia, I'm sure. I'm just glad that with Lisa and Nancy's appearances, it was mentioned that they do have lives. Too bad we can't see some of that every now and then. Lisa's dating men! Let's see that!

LOL Lisa dating a woman would be strange, funny, and amazing at the same time.

I just can't get over how upset I am about this Z twins storyline. I mean, really, it shouldn't surprise anyone that they are the VOMs for April, but what kind of vendetta should they even have against Luke? They don't even know him that much! And even if they are long-lost members of the Grimaldi family, why do they even care about Luke? They're young, they're hot, they definitely have colorful personalities. They should be worrying about their own lives.

Ugh. I hate ATWT. I hate ATWT. I love ATWT. I hate ATWT. Uggggggh......

No doubt it's all about the Grimaldi money. I think it's less about Luke, and more about Damian.

But c'mon...you expect this to make sense? Since when do any of Nuke's stories (or any story on the show, really) stand up to intense logic or scrutiny? I've never really figured out how upright, uptight Col. Mayer got involved with a Muslim woman or what he really intended to do with Ameera.

I'm almost intrigued into what their interest in the Grimaldi money is, but I know I'll probably hate how this story ends. Ugh.

I should know better than to expect this show to go in the unexpected route and to do something that makes sense, but eh...they always do this to me. They put on a show that I enjoy (Monday's episode), and it makes me somewhat proud to be a fan, but then we sink back into the abyss that is Meg, Paul, and the baby obsessions. My GOD, would someone just buy Paul a Cabbage Patch Kid? He obsessed over Cabot, he obsessed over Johnny, and now he's obsessing over Eliza.

And even better if her partner were Lucinda.

(Stop it, you know I'm not the only one who "went there".)

I'm past the point of caring about Nuke, or hoping their story will make sense. ATWT always wanted us to think of them like we would any other couple on daytime. Congratulations, WT, you've succeeded mightily.

Wow, you saw the show real early PJ.

Ugh with Luke and his Drama Queen acting today. Gawd...his acting get worse by the day. How Paolo Seganti kept a straight face is beyond me. I started cringing and laughing through it. Silbermann was no better tied up and screaming for Luke not to be hurt. Gawd...Luke was annoying from the beginining of the show to the very end. He is so stupid. Damian is the bad MONSTER...lol..and the Z twins are angels ...How stupid can he be?

The whole Katie baby stuff was ff material for me.

Yes....Susan is on tomorrow.

I almost raced to this thread once Luke started to be all drama queeny at the beginning. Once Van gets that voice going, that whiny, screamy voice, then you know there ain't no looking back. Every word sounds like there's a bucketful of tears attached to it.

And the Z twins are angels! They're my angels at least, because they're saving this show for me. Honestly, if it hadn't been for their hijinks, along with Nancy and Lisa, I probably wouldn't have watched a frame of ATWT this week.

I read about

on the Spoiler board. Hmm...this could be interesting. Hopefully they don't muck it up too much so that I can't get some kind of enjoyment out of it.

I doubt we will get any explanation to why the Z twins kidnapped Noah and are after Luke. The storyline reeks!

The whole crap about Luke being a Gramaldi was hog wash. He is all Snyder. He has his mother Drama Queen attitude. If things dont go right for him he pouts and screams and yells that it is unfair and he is blameless. Ugh I am so sick of Luke.

You knwo yesterday I was actually convinced--and was gonna agree wiht a lot of this... and then we got today's episode which in typical ATWT fashion basically negated EVERYTHING positive you just said. They are plot driven, in under 2 weeks they're already KIDNAPPING (wtf and YAWN), it is moving super fast (I didn't even think Noah and Luke's argument was a fight on monday but now they act like it was the end of a marriage), the only possibly gay new guy on the show is once again a threat (this time a very dangerous one indeed) etc etc etc. GRRRR.

    • OH. The AMC/OLTL Crossover with helicopter, down in the woods, 2 very pregnant, both give birth, only one baby lives. We are on the same page!!!
    • Backtracking because BTG has been distracting me from keeping up with GH. Why is Carly always involved with a paternity lie? Lulu is Dante's (wife? if Im correct) so she has the right to tell him about his son. If anything, she's in a better place to reveal paternity drama than Robin was. As for Robin...I'm conflicted about whether it was HER place to tell AJ he was Michael's dad. Being with a man who's pretending to be someone else's baby daddy is wild. Dante was snoring blaming everyone  but Rocco, however he was right about Jason. A convo isn't enough, neither is trying to be your son's friend. Adolescents need a disciplinarian. At least Lulu made Rocco and Danny scrub the house.

    • I saw a new BTG promo during Watson tonight (Sunday May 11).   I don't remember what I saw (and I wouldn't say here on the nonspoiler thread anyhow).

    • As requested by @BoldRestless the 1976 story summary of Y&R from the Daytime serial newsletter. I will post it in parts as it is quite detailed.  Pt 1 Set in Midwestern Genoa City, The Young and the  Restless, which premiered four years ago, is the story of the Brooks and Foster families. Jennifer and Stuart Brooks are, on the surface, the perfect couple, blessed with four beautiful daughters, but under the veneer of a first impression lie cracks in the facade. Jennifer had become dissatisfied with her marriage after the birth of her oldest daughter, Leslie, and had left Stuart with the idea of returning to her former fiancé, Dr. Bruce Henderson. After later reconciling with Stuart, Jennifer found she was pregnant with Laurie, and she has lived all these years with the suspicion that Laurie may be Bruce’s daughter. Leslie  has recovered from a nervous breakdown and is now a famous concert pianist, happily married to former Surgeon now newspaperman Brad Elliot.  . Chris Brooks is married to Dr. William (Snapper) Foster, and Peggy, the youngest Brooks daughter, is a college student. Jennifer recently left Stuart a second time, considering again a life with Bruce, but the discovery of a lump in her breast followed by a mastectomy for cancer has again changed her priorities.   Laurie, meanwhile, has been dating Dr. Mark Henderson, Bruce’s son.  Snapper’s mother, Liz Foster, had finally accepted the fact that her husband, Bill, had abandoned their family and had had him declared dead when he suddenly walked back into their lives, suffering from emphysema. Jill, Liz and Bill’s only daughter, was married to Phillip Chancellor, the father of her unborn child, just hours before his death. Phillip obtained a quick Caribbean divorce upon learning of his impending fatherhood and was badly injured when his now-ex-wife, Kay, meeting him at the airport upon his return, lost control of the car when he told her of his plans to marry Jill. After Phillip’s death Kay vowed to void his marriage to Jill and deprive Jill of |his estate. Kay’s son from her first marriage, Brock Reynolds, supports Jill in her claim, but Kay, a former alcoholic, cannot accept the idea of having lost Phillip to her former paid companion. Greg Foster, Jill and Snapper’s brother, is an attorney working for Legal Aid, where Chris is his assistant. Upon learning that her daughter Lauralee has become engaged to Dr. Bruce Henderson’s son Mark,Jennifer Brooks tells Mark she suspects he and.Laurie are half brother and sister. She explains she spent a week with Bruce after a bad fight with her husband, Stuart, when she believed their marriage was over. A blood test confirms her fears—Stuart cannot be Laurie’s father. Keeping what he’s learned to himself,Mark painfully breaks his engagement to Laurie and leaves town. Laurie is shattered by this, unable to understand what went wrong. But soon she begins to put bits and pieces together and confronts hermother, asking what she said to Mark that drove him away. Jennifer finally tells her daughter the truth and stands helplessly as Laurie turns to run to her father for comfort and suddenly realizes he’s not her father—even this her mother has taken from her. Laurie follows Mark to Cleveland and tries to persuade him that they can still be married—they need not have children—only to be hurt again when Mark sadly tells her their love would become dirty and they would wind up hating themselves and each other. Heart broken, Laurie agrees to let him go. Jennifer has recently left Stuart, due to growing frustration in her marriage, and had planned to marry Bruce, but discovery of breast cancer and a subsequent mastectomy caused her to reconsider her plans. When Stuart earnestly pleaded with her to come home to him and their daughters after her recovery, she agreed, but now her guilt over Laurie’s situation has caused her to waver. When Laurie confides the truth to her older sister Leslie, Les makes it clear to her mother that she finds the idea that Jennifer would think of returning to her father contemptible. But Brad Elliot,Leslie’s husband, warns her to hide her feelings or her father will notice and ask for an explanation.Jennifer gives in to Stuart’s wishes, and he welcomes her home as his wife again. Leslie has had two more piano-concert triumphs and basks in the attention of the music world, as well as that of Lance Prentiss, a wealthy industrialist who has been following her career with avid interest. Les invites Lance home to Genoa City, hoping the dynamic, handsome young titan of business can help distract Laurie from her heartbreak. With the birth of Jill Foster’s baby imminent, Kay Chancellor offers Jill one million dollars for the child —fathered by her late husband, Phillip Chancellor. After Phillip’s death Kay had the divorce ruled invalid and voided Jill’s marriage, making her unborn child illegitimate. But now, finally acknowledging Jill’s baby as Phillip’s, Kay tells Jill she can give the child the Chancellor name and social position, as well as the love she had for Phillip. Jill, torn by love for Phillip and his baby and the extreme financial need of her family (Jill’s father is dying of emphysema and needs a warm, dry climate), realizes that Kay can give her child everything he could need, things Jill could never provide, and agrees to Kay’s terms.  Jill’s son, Phillip Chancellor Foster, is born prematurely a few days later. Liz Foster, Jill’s mother, is horrified that Jill would “sell” her son to Kay, and Jill’s father, Bill, is horrified that it is concern for his health that led Jill to this arrangement. He would rather die than give up his grandson. But when Jill, who has avoided seeing her child, has to take physical custody of him in order to deliver him to Kay, she is suddenly unable to give him up.

    • I do mean those two, but when I download them, the Chris from Greece version is from RTL with subtitles and starts with a doctor greeting Stephanie and the rsclassicfanfanforever version is from Videoland, no subtitles and starts with Tawny and Becky? Sorry if this was already discussed. Is the Chris version merged with another episode? That one is longer.
