Members Juliajms Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 I know. It's really weird. I don't understand what the writers are going for with this story. It's not the triumphant reunion I would expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JimTolkien Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 To me it is not the true "reunion" in the sense of the word. I am going to just quote Joshua on this one, sort of...Nick and Sharon have unfinished business. IMO, the writers have whitewashed most of Shick's history for a reason - noticed how they have never talked about any of their sordid or tragic history except for Cassie. One would think they never had problems except for that. Nick and Sharon are very IDEALISTIC and sometimes there is nothing wrong with that..but they have taken it to an extreme level. This idea of this perfect family that they never truly had back in the past. So for me anyway I don't mind seeing them back together if only it would make them realize that they really did have serious problems in their marriage and they are doing the same thing now as they did when they were married - which is leave a trail of destruction behind. And gosh, what about Noah - it's like he doesn't even fit into this equation. They don't even think about him when it matters. I have no doubt that he is going to be really angry at his parents - the writing has been setting this all into place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cashton Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 I think it's the reason you just said - they don't want to do the expected. This whole thing is messy, twisted and uber-dramatic. By the way - forgot to mention but Gloria and Jeff being completely clueless sleuths is quite amusing. ETA: Plus I think they're trying to be very evenhanded given the Phick/Shick fanbases. If either was completely shut out i think they'd lose viewers. Smart having Phyllis pretty much tell Jack what was going to happen with Phick then cut to the same exact thing happening.

Members BadZoe Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 No the only thing that was missing was a [!@#$%^&*] pile for those two pigs to be screwing around in. Spot on JimTolkien, their marriage was never ideal and both cheated on each other constantly. I really don't see what their fans see in this pairing, other than maybe some high school sweet heart fantasy that this couple fulfills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 I'm not finding any of this especially dramatic. For whatever reason this whole thing has turned me off to Nick, Sharon, Jack and Phyllis in that order. I can't exactly put my finger on the reason. I just feel like the whole thing is covered in sleaze and desperation. People I generally find sexy are not sexy in this situation. I'm just disgusted by them all.

Members Vanguardian Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 WOW! So much is going on right now: Everything from Adam's reign of terror against Ashley to Nick's dumping Phyllis for his ex-wife Sharon to Sharon not knowing who has knocked her up (Nick, Jack, Billy????), to Mary Jane having a crazed obsession for Jack to the lame "Scooby-Doo" antics of Daniel/Amber/Kevin/Jana. My question is: Have they forgotten about the "Phillip may/or may not be alive storyline"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vanguardian Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 Well they need to push forward with this tale. Is Phillip alive or not and who is Cane? A fraud? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted June 6, 2009 Administrator Share Posted June 6, 2009 Yeah, kudos to Tom, Janice Ferri Esser and Mike Denney for a great all around episode. I'll go even further and say Adam is the most interesting character in daytime right now. CE, you're a fool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members classicmoment Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 It's not that I don't know that, I'm making a comment about general perception. They obviously can't stop the leaks so that is something to consider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted June 6, 2009 Administrator Share Posted June 6, 2009 I saw it already. It's not as good as Friday's, but still pretty fun to watch. A reply to your post before: yeah, I noticed too that this is like the 4th straight Friday cliffhanger. It reminds me a bit of Carlivati's consecutive Friday cliffhangers. I hope it'll be 5 straight this Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 Phyllis: I didn't ask for this! I didn't ask for any of this. Your daughter -- your daughter didn't ASK FOR THIS! She didn't ask for THIS! Did you worry about Noah when you were f-cking his father behind Sharon's back, Phyllis? Thought so, karma is a bitch.

Members Juliajms Posted June 6, 2009 Members Share Posted June 6, 2009 I'm not feeling a whole lot of sympathy for Phyllis. And yet I'm still disgusted with Sharon and Nick. Sharon and Nick always had their problems, but I still wish they had had a better reunion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
