Phyllis already lost one child, why should she have to suffer the loss of another?? only so some fans can be egstatic that her tie to Nick is broken??? Summer is just the icing on the cake, Nicke FELL in love with Phyllis before there was a Summer Newman or before Phyllis found out she was pregnant. History can not be re-written just to appease one certain fanbase or any one fan.

It's not the affair, it's the gang bang mentality that I don't want to see rewarded. Summer shouldn't die, but she should be Jack's. It would be fun to address why Nick would claim the baby as his own and leave his family to play house with his ex step daddy's baby and wife.

I don't see how it's stupid for Billy to wind up with two infants because he's too stupid to put on a condom. Herpes would have been better for this storyline than another baby, but people don't get incurable STI's on soaps.

He's a very strong and brave man. I can't imagine going through a fraction of what he went through. I'm looking forward to seeing him on the show, having only become a viewer recently.

As for the Sharon/Nick/Phyllis triangle, I want Nick to be with Sharon. Just sayin.

in that case Cassie is dead and it is sad that the writers are using Cassie as sexual foreplay for Nick and Sharon, it seems they have to discuss Cassie before they have adulteress sex! Why can't the love they have for their living child be the glue that binds them and the reason for them to re-unite??? why does it have to be Cassie and this child that probably is not even Nick's child, why can't their own biological child be enough?!

I've never said a child has to be the reason they reunite at all. I wasn't even talking about what I want to happen, I'm talking about what I believe will happen based on 20 years of watching soaps. It is all but inevitable that Nick and Sharon will reunite some day and then break up again. Just like Victor and Nikki have done that dance over and over. I also believe at some point Y&R will give them another daughter. Not because I want that to happen, I just think that's a card the show will play down the road. Time will tell.

I have never seen Nick and Sharon as the "new" Victor and Nikki, they just never had the "umph" that would quantify them as a super couple! for the 10 years they were married they did not inter-act that much with the rest of the cast, they were on their little fantasy island save for the cheating partners they had, they just never had substance to me. And in my 45 year history of soap opera watching, I have yet to see where a couple "HAVE" to re-unite??? there are alot of couples in soap history that never re-untied after getting a divorce! I personally see no reason to have to suffer through more wasted air time of this toxic and boring couple!!! again, why try to recapture the past when the past SUCKED!

I didn't say they are the new Victor and Nikki. I said they will get together again and break up again just like Victor and Nikki have. And I didn't say it "has" to happen. I said I believe it will. The show has given me every possibly indication of this. Personally, I've never been a big fan of Sharon and Nick, but I think the writing is on the wall.

The grief they share over Cassie dying is what keeps bringing them together. To insinuate that they are actually using their dead child as foreplay is sick, if putting it in those terms to defend your preferred couple makes you feel better then so be it.

You've watched soaps for 45 years and you've yet to see where a couple had to reunite?!?!

There are plenty of people who see no reason to have to suffer through more wasted air time on Phick too.

I would like it if both Sharon and Phyllis both found someone other then Nick.

It's Y&R's fault for writing to many situations where sex is supposed to be this magic cure all to almost anything.

    • I don't really care about what the men are wearing, or not wearing.   What I care about is focusing on the writing and character development for each of the male characters. Andre really doesn't have a lot of character development that sets him apart from the other male characters except that he seems content to be degraded and mistreated by the elitist Dani.  I would like to know why a good looking younger guy like Andre would willingly be at the mercy of an emotional vampire such as Dani.   Martin, on the other hand, seems to have decent character development.. and it is partly due to how the actor chooses to recite his lines.  Martin was raised in a very privileged household and probably went to the best schools... so it makes sense that he would come across as thinking he was above everyone else.  Most people raised in a upper class situation as the Duprees would view themselves as better than others (it's the same trait Dani seems to employ on those she feels superior to). It makes me wonder how Nicole came out of that family being so warm and nurturing  when her family dynamics seemed very appearance oriented.    
    • I know, right. I after just re-reading the thread, I'm like ooppph!
    • Lulu and Dante were divorced before her coma, but she was still in love with him.  He just didn't know.  They haven't been married for years.    I was pretty mixed about Lulu getting involved when it was just a child out there in the world, but now that she realizes it's Gio I am okay with her telling Dante.  It also is her son's sibling.  I still think it's BLQ's choice though.  Lulu is in a rough spot because I think Dante will be mad if she keeps it a secret and Chase, Brook, Lois, etc will be mad if Lulu tells. Without veering too far into the classic area of the show, I had no problem with Robin telling AJ about Michael.  It may not have *exactly* been her place, but she could see how Carly was manipulating the entire situation.  It also ruined her romantic relationship with Jason for good.  Jason and Sonny were furious with Robin and practically ran her out of town, so I think we were to believe she was the bad guy.  It was a bit out of character for Robin to spill, but KMc was leaving the show.
    • 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.    
    • @MaximThis really  old song popped into my head this morning ....
