If I knew I wouldn't be complaining about it.....

This and last week's Y&R weekly threads are the only ones I seem to be having this problem with. I found myself having to resubscribe to this thread and had to do the same with last week's thread about this time last week.

Vail would work if Heather's tough attitude looked at all real but every time she's confronting either Micheal or Victor she looks like she's peeing her pants. The DA should be a ballsy bitch, steadfast in her convictions even if they are ludicrous.

I had to laugh at Sharon holding her pee stick and then putting her hand on her mouth. Hopefully the baby is Billy's. Chloe deserves that before she gets over the louse and moves on.

Did Amber design Kay's dress? It is age appropriate and missing wings and butterflies.

And how does Lily/CK make anyone want to adopt a dog if it's going to turn you into a baby talking moron?

Ah, those tiny details... I will probably never get over seeing couples wake up early morning and immediately start talking into their faces without brushing their teeth anything.

Yes, she did.

That whole dog mess was laughable and then today Mac asked Chloe if they were crate training the puppy..... :rolleyes:

I was surprised at how age appropriate Kay's wedding dress/outfit was too.

Didn't mean to sound so bitchy in my previous posts, I'm just frustrated.

So many LOLs. Thank you!

I'm so glad they brought on Sharon's pregnancy on today's episode. FINALLY! The last few weeks after Phyllis's arrest have been lacking. I wish there were some hints as to her pregnancy, though.

Or lie down on the bed with their shoes on lol.

Indeed, for Lindsey, the departure was a shocker in way. She had purchased (with her blackmail money) Lorie Brooks' famous apartment (the one Vanessa plunged from, with that beautiful backlit bookshelf). Moreover, she FULLY REMODELED that set...all new furnishings, wall coverings, etc. It appeared that they were positioning Lindsey as a new power player on the show -- the new "Lorie", as it were.

We saw that set at most 3 times...I think less. And then Lindsey was never seen or mentioned again. After all that $$ went into her set.

I remember wondering what happened?

Of course, within four or five years, she showed up on B&B...and from there to DOOL...so she has at least remained in the soap viewers' eyes.

But I honestly feel Lindsey is too OLD to be played by Haiduk. It is, at least, a stretch. Patty, who was more in Danny/Lauren's age bracket, it a better fit for Haiduk.

ITA. Katherine's wedding suit was very tasteful and age appropriate.

Nikki's dress. Oy. The print and style did MTS no favors.

Gag, Victor as best man.

I am happy for Sharon. She deserves another child.

With all the Brenda Dickson drama behind the scenes it could be that Bill Bell was trying to make Lindsey the show's new bad girl and propably scare Brenda. BTW I always thought that LK would make a great Jill. She is wasted on Days.

Lauren Koslow left Y&R - I think there even was some struggle behind the scenes - to join THE A TEAM. Too bad that, when she eventually could tape for that series, it was cancelled some months later. Therefore she was glad when Bill Bell called her up for B&B in the winter of 1987.

Really? 1986? I honestly thought she was gone before then...but I didn't look it up...I took it from memory.

Well, if there was really such a short period, maybe Bill Bell said, "Look, I am out of ideas for Lindsey, but I want to keep you. I'm going to phase Lindsey on, but hold on--I'm debuting a new show called "Rags" in a year or two, and I have a character who would be perfect for you!" Something like that...

    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
    • That would have made sense. Did all these characters get dropped when DePriest left or had they already been dropped?
    • The other issue with Missy: in June 2020, she "liked" some social media posts by Candace Owens -- things Candace said that were against Black Lives Matter.  That is described here https://tvline.com/news/melissa-reeves-racism-days-of-our-lives-instagram-controversy-2894568/ I don't know if that was ever resolved.
    • She appeared onscreen not long after Rose Livingston and Sara Montaigne, and we found out that Sara was Rose's estranged daughter. I wonder whether Peggy might have been part of that family group -- or else they were just juggling a few different potential mysteries so that they could develop whatever seemed to be getting the best response from the audience. They didn't do anything much with Rose and Sara really either. Maybe Rose would have become more prominent if Rachel and Mac had split up over Mitch, or if Sara had really flourished. In some ways I can picture Cheryl being affected by MJ's prostitution similarly to how Josie was distressed by finding out about Sharlene. But I can also see that Josie as a Frame being involved with Matthew would have different stakes for Rachel and Sharlene than Cheryl being involved with Scott. I do think the solution for Cheryl would have had to be a badder boy than Scott -- either a real bad boy who would do her wrong, or the kind of bad boy (not Chad!!!) who is essentially misunderstood and other people just don't understand. Cheryl would also have been better off with some friends her own age. Matthew and Josie benefited a bit from having other teenagers to interact with.
    • Sally Spencer was a decent actress, but the writing destroyed the "M.J." that Kathleen Layman had built. Layman had a quiet strength about her, and she and Osburn really felt like sisters. Spencer's character should have been either an unmentioned sister, or maybe Jake's that grew up close to Kathleen, M.J. and the rest, but was away for a few years before joining the force. Kristen Marie was o.k., but I always got a mousier vibe from her. Being pigeon-holed with Scott for most of the run hurt things for her, as well.  The Loves were also underserved between Rhonda Lewin and Philece Sampler. Philece would have been better as Nicole. Thank goodness Anne Heche  showed up for the next round of auditions. Christopher Holder was mediocre as Peter, but given a shot, I think Marcus Smythe could have stuck around for a while.  I would have had Peggy Lazarus be a Frame -- possibly an ex-wife for Vince with an agenda. Smythe and Hollen had  a fun chemistry that could have kept the two around.. Bringing recasts for  Cheryl and Ben back mixing it up with other Frames. Corys, Lawrences at the time might have kept all the families stronger. 
    • shoot...he said in that Locher room with Krista. I think he met her before that---she was doing Broadway and they had mutual friends or an agent maybe?
    • Yes. And I assume he met Mary Ellen Stuart at GL.
    • That's an odd coincidence. Yeah, Roger would turn anything he could to his advantage. At the time, he's just taking the pictures to bank leverage over Reva, Billy or the Lewises.  I'm kinda squeamish about 1986 episodes myself. I'd love to hear the original version of Ross/Vanessa/Dinah, but the Cain story is bad, and I don't want Billy and Vanessa to break up.
