Members MarkH Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 Hmmmmmmm....we could go lots of places with that . What do you think all the thunder and lightning is about? Is is just to create atmosphere for tomorrow's previewed Sabrina haunting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members classicmoment Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 I hate to say it because the show is still ok borderlining other things, but are these Co-Headwriters taking turns writing. It's like significant Shifts between November-Feb/Feb-May and now. Shifts in approaches, style and quality. It just seems switched inbetween those intervals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 I like that Jack has said (twice) that nothing will stop him from loving Billy. I'm glad he hasn't simply cut him loose. Y&R does sibling relationships so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 Yes, I actually agree. Some of it may be moving Kay and her tale off the front burner and moving others (basically Adam and Mary Jay) closer to the front. But in ways that I cannot explain, the show feels a bit more "Lathamesque" to me these days. (That is NOT a bad thing in my book...it means a greater emphasis on younger players, speedier movement [i'm not seeing too much of that], increased use of humor and snark). The emphasis on crime and mystery and capers (Mary Jane, Adam, Daniel) does make one wonder if Scott Hamner is having more influence. I still enjoy the show very much from day to day. I cannot deny ... much as I try to ignore it ... that the Melody Thomas stuff is really coloring my view right now. Coupled with the fact that Lily and Tyra (whom we barely see) are major irritants to me right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MTSRocks Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 Guys I was just playing about give her whatever she wants, LoL. Well, okay, maybe just slightly playing. I really don't want MTS to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 That would be such a fun scene! I really don't either. I still have a lot of hope that this situation will turn around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MTSRocks Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 Wow, I'm sorry but I don't know how anyone can like Nick after tomorrow's US episode. That loser should have died in the plane crash. Great scenes though, Michelle Stafford completely anchors this! After today she's my choice for Lead Actress, just consistently brilliant this year. Now I know why they're re-casting Summer with a more talkative child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members classicmoment Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 Yeah me too, JW turned her around at the final hour. I'm hoping for the same with MTS i see so many story beats that should be played with Nikki. Just hope it goes that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members classicmoment Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 Yes I kinda notice things because Hogan's style is way more aggressive, I know he slows it down for build up but the pacing tend to be errr different with his approach. I definitly believe Scott Hamner is the driving force at present. I buy mostly MAB from November to Feb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 I suspect I will hate his guts then. Basically, I am already there. I do too. Many people here assume that she is unwilling to take a pay cut...and I sure don't know anything about that. But my intuition is that it may be that she is being handled with a supreme lack of respect (much as Martha Byrne was). To make someone work for less $$ and treat them like sh!t...not worth it. Assuming the Sony moneymen are being dirtbags, I kind of wouldn't mind if she walked. I'd miss Nikki/MTS, but I really think that these things can happen with respect. Especially for an essential long-term contributor like MTS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members classicmoment Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 Honestly if that is the case she has to do what she has to do. Kind of like with CE one has to have boundaries for one's self. If she feels she's being disrespected then I support her standing up for herself. Either way I hope she ends up staying put Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapydoc Posted June 4, 2009 Members Share Posted June 4, 2009 It's disgusting. It really is beyond gross for all fans. I hope they are recasting Summer so she too can tell her Dad that he's an ass. Michelle Stafford owns that Emmy next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
