EVERYONE is irritated with Nick now. That is the point.

I do believe that Nick will end up alone for a time. And that will be interesting to watch. Except I fear he'll glom on to some new, third woman...random...like Ashley or Mac or Heather....

Dudes like Nick can't be alone for long.

I wish this was true but I understand that

Phyllis throws him out then he and Sharon reunite to raise "their" child later this week.

Michael Damian's Danny Romalotti?

*shudder*

I feel bad for Jack but I am getting aweary with the Quad because Jack, Phyllis and Sharon are basically all victims of Nick's mood swings. He wants Phyllis. He wants Sharon. He wants Phyllis. He wants Sharon. He wants to be a dad to Summer. He wants a baby with Sharon. He likes the Brewers. He likes the Cubs. He wants a ham sandwich. No, he wants a tuna sandwich. Scratch that, back to ham. With mustard. No Mayo. No wait. He wants tuna. With extra mayo. He wants to work with Victor. He wants to be his own man. He wants Sharon. He wants Phyllis. He wants Sharon. Is it time for dinner yet?

Some great scenes on tomorrow's US show.

Nina/Kay/Jill reminiscing about Phillip (with flashbacks).

And of course the awesome Billy/Jack scenes.

I forgot to add that some Lily fans are already trying to pair her off with the next man once Lame runs it course. & you won't believe who they think could do Lily character justice.

On a side note: I ask these fans don't you want something more from Lily then she who she paired with. This LIly is actually being define who she's with.

Exactly. I think if the Shi t reunion is going to succeed he has to go back to her despite the baby, not because of it. Nick is really becoming a waffleman like B&B's Ridge. One week I want Sharon, no wait, I might lose Phyllis, I want her, back to Sharon, back to Phyllis and on and on and on. It would serve him right to wind up alone for a while, with the occasional hook-up, until he grows up.

This is the reason that I'm tired of all three of these characters, give them a rest already!

True enough, but she is the one choosing to play her part as cutsie as can be.

CK seems to be playing an extension of herself just as some of the other younger actresses are and her Twitter page sounds EXACTLY like she plays her character.

Soon as Christel returned Lily became a concubine again.

I didn't mind CK the first time around and didn't mind her reprising the role but she's been AWFUL this time around. Sadly. she hasn't grown as an actress one bit, she still plays the character the same way she did years ago.

I do not think that Twitter is real. I think that is an elaborate, highly effective, daily joke.

Can anyone confirm it is real?

I think it's real... see my above comment about it. Tammin Sursok's is just as bad, very childish.

Agreed. I thought she was fantastic the first time around. The Kevin/Lily story was a major highlight to me during that time though. Just excellent performances, and good writing for the most part. Then Khalil got burnt out, and Jack Smith tried to make her a lead actress.

CK and Sursok should both be playing teenaged roles since that's their acting mentality. Actually, Sursok's roles in the films that she's done are probably more suited to what she should be playing not Colleen in the boardroom trying to one up TGVN.

I can agree with this.

CK doesn't try but I partly blame the producers & writers for this. Why is there so little follow up on Lily/Daniel? Why doesn't she still secretly fear/hate/lust Kevin? Why isn't there lingering tension with Colleen over Colleen sleeping with Daniel? Lily isn't a three-dimensional character who carries her past experiences with her. You can say that an actor she should be asking those questions but the way Y&R seems to rolls is basically, actors please shut up and just act read your lines. As we just discussed, Joshua Morrow has had far more profound questions and the writers have done him no help in trying to explain why Nick's such a ditherer.

There aren't throughlines for most of the characters expect maybe Victor, Jack, Kay and Jill. Characters don't carry the past with them and the past doesn't seem to impact their decisions. Lily should be a wonderfully complicated heroine. One who loves Cane, but is also nostalgic for Daniel, confused about Kevin, loving but sometimes resentful towards Colleen, and so on.

Funniest, yet most astute post I've read in a while. And you made me want a ham sandwich.
