Y&R: Week of May 18, 2009


Recommended Posts

I don't think they are bringing on TB just to have it be, Cane is the real Chancellor after all. That would be as much of a slap in the face to fans as making Gloria or Nikki Catherine's daughter, after undoing that stupid Jill/Kay retcon.

I've been hoping Cassie had a twin, since well before Jackass murdered her for Sharon Case's unsuccessful Emmy campaign. But that was long before Pheila, Jeffrey, Alastair and other doubles were brought on. Back when she gave that baby up for adoption, splitting up twins was the norm.

And I don't care how bad an actor he was, Malcolm was the hottest male ever to grace the Y&R.

Jana's going crazy again...

Thank goodness MJ's back tomorrow...

I really like Della's Aunt V. She actually made me not grimace at the screen when Devon was on looking confused about who he should hate/preach about. It appears that this new development about Tyra's blood will open up some sort of romance with her and Devon, but that's just weird. It just reeks of Ridge/Bridget on B&B. I hope there's more to this than just a way to make a triangle between Tyra/Neil/Devon. And please don't let Malcolm be Devon's father like some people are guessing.

Nina seems to be on an island. She knows so many people yet she's only in the Chancellor orbit, which makes sense, but I want her to talk to Lauren, be shocked about her and Michael (Nina was on when for Demented Michael, not Saint Michael right?) It'd be cool if she had something to do with Paul, maybe give an update on Christine.

OMG Malcolm as Devon's father? free-mad-smileys-121.gif

I'd like it if it were Tyra/Neil/Devon/Roxanne dammit.

And I don't think Tyra and Devon are nearly as weird as Tyra and Neil ever could be and ever were.

Besides, Devon is so damn dull. It'd be nice if he did something this OUTLANDISH!

I hear you, Devon is as dull as dull can be (and so is the actor which is a big part ofthe problem). And it just upsets my stomache when relatives learn they're not blood-relatives and go screw each other. It's just gross to me.

That has actually been fairly strongly rumored. Now that it has been established that Sharon "loses time", especially when under stress, and that she was stressed after her mother's paralysis (which would have happened shortly before her impregnation) it is no twist AT ALL for Sharon to have lost track of a twin. Especially because the babies were taken by a shady lawyer (Alice's boyfriend).

Malcolm is off canvas, and will remain so as long as Shemar has a non-daytime career. It won't be Devon.

Since people have been discussing skin color here, Devon is quite fair. It is therefore plausible that his father is white. I suspect they will go this route, making Devon officially biracial. Do we have any other officially biracial characters on daytime (beyond B&B's Marcus?).

your last line made me laugh. The only thing in common between Donna and Marcus is plastic surgeons.

I think GL has bi-racial characters, Rick and Mel have kids I think.

I wish they'd make Det. Gil Devon's father. I met the guy who plays him and he's really as cool as he appears on the show. He's not a pot-stirrer though which is what the Winter's clan need. I really think they're bringing Yolonda back - she's SO needed.

Yeah, OLTL has Rachel Gannon. Alan Spaulding's dad, on GL, had a biracial daughter named Victoria. ATWT's Jade is biracial, right? She's Rose's daughter.

Didn't Tom Hardy have a child with Simone on GH? Of course, didn't Edward Quartermaine have children with M... (name eludes me...Mary Mae??) on GH?

Passions of course had Vincent.

ON Days, didn't Mike Horton (Wesley Eure?) marry an African American woman (Valerie??). If yes, did they have kids?

    • Oh so they did sleep together. The retcon was just the medical boards? That makes sense. I think Susan Pratt, while a good actress, was just an unlikeable presence onscreen and soaps wrote to that most of the time. There was some potential for more with her when she returned in that stint, as Pratt was at least interesting to watch and caused some conflict for the stifled Bauers. Instead of pairing her with Alan and then disappearing I might have had her hook up with Danny. I think there was a lot of flirtation with Bolger's Philip, but they never crossed the line.
    • I haven't seen Melchior in the role, but it would be astounding if she's worse than Linn. Her rivalry with Stephanie was sidelined IMO because Linn was one of the few actors who didn't have chemistry with, nor raise her game, when paired with Susan Flannery. To be fair, she did show some signs of life in scenes opposite Darlene Connelly, but way too little too late. It feels like Bell finally woke up after the Thorne switchover and sidelined the Kristin character with Mick to 1 or 2 appearances a week. As a result, the show improved by leaps and bounds after she was inexplicably at the center of the show for most of 1989. Margo is so much more enjoyable when not tied to that albatross. Even Clarke is watchable with less Kristin interaction. She can't exit stage left soon enough. As for the new Thorne, I agree that Norcross feels like a Forrester a lot more than Thrachta, even if the latter is a better actor.
    • The cast said that scenes were filmed over a few weeks, with a preplanned hiatus in the middle, and it was all out of order.  I would *guess* that they used Chandler when they could get him? They also had to work around Leo Howard getting married around the time these episodes were filmed, but I guess they worked it out since Tate appeared.
    • Maybe there was a scheduling conflict or something. He still has the full time 9-5 in Atlanta, right? Julie was there. Idk if Maggie’s gonna be a part of it though 
    • At this point, the best nonpaywall coverage of Los Angeles (and anything political)  is in...the Tennessee Holler https://bsky.app/profile/thetnholler.bsky.social And as always, emptywheel continues to be consistent https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social
    • Today Monday was the start of people arriving at the funeral, but the service hasn't started yet.  I know this is the nonspoiler thread but I think it's okay to say (in nonspecific terms) that the funeral episodes span a few days.  I won't detail it more here. Just sayin' keep watching.
    • Why am I only now hearing about what happened in L.A., lol?
    • While I agree that Reeves is Jennifer, I honestly do prefer Cady McClain in the role, as I feel she had/has a wider range of acting capabilities than I feel Reeves has. It's the strength of an actor, ultimately, for me, regardless of how I feel about Reeves' political/social views (which I widely disagree with). Plus, not to mention, they costumed Reeves like an old-fashioned frumpy farm/Moron wife, while McClain had some fashion-forward moments.
    • Wait - so no Will, Jack, or Jen at John's funeral? That’s just weird. What was the point of bringing them back then? Did Julie and Maggie even show up? I mean, seriously.
