Eh. No.

I watch everyday, and I see the same problems everyday, so of course I'm going to keep bringing them up. The show is too much of a habit in my daily life to break, even when it's dreadfully bad, like it is now, IMO.

Is it wrong that some of us simply don't like the direction that this show is taking? We still watch and this IS the discussion thread. When I tried to keep things on topic months ago, I was fed something about daily episodes having the power to branch off to other topics and about other areas of the show and that I should accept that, and I have. So just because I'm too "negative" I should stop posting here and my opinion about the current state of the show is not valid?

Well, I don't care, this is the discussion thread, and I will continue to post how I feel about the show, regardless of what anyone thinks.

See that's why I start a "What's wrong with ATWT" threads a lot so it wont get mangled with the daily discussion. I think there should be one for Y&R. Have you considered writing to the mags..to CBS. Believe me I have done that before and my thoughts were printed in the SOW. Maybe then someone important will read it and might do some changes. Just a thought.

Maybe we can have a Y&R Backstage/Managment/Production thread where you and the folks who like to discuss those things could talk and those of us who just like to talk about the storylines, characters and daily happenings can use this thread? Would that be cool?

I like you Alvin, you know that - I don't want your voice to be diminished at all. I just think the majority of folks like to discuss what's going on with the show, not just backstage stuff.

My posts are more than just backstage/management stuff though. I also talk a lot about the creative driection of the show, scenes in epsiodes, and the overall tone of the show. I just happen to not enjoy at all right now, that's all.

Maybe we should also have a speculation thread too for those of you who like to discuss that, since it has nothing to do with the daily episodes?

Oh please, you're the most negative one in those ATWT discussion threads, try again. You might start other threads, but your posts in the ATWT discussion thread always takes swipes at Goutman and "Pissy."

What good will the mags do? It's not like none of my posts don't pertain to the episodes.

LOL...well I will just stop posting here too. There's no point in all this. It seems only certain posters have the right to post here. What about others..like brimike?? He has ever right to post here. I only see a few coming to his defense. That's why I didnt post here too much negativity. I will just watch the show and enjoy it without posting here. I will stick to my ATWT thread and others.

The difference is the posters who post there agree with me. Y&R is a totally different animal. I am gone!

I wonder if there just isn't very much to talk about on the show at the moment. The characters go around in circles and so do the stories. I'm sure there will be more discussion about the show when more stories push ahead, like when Nina, Katherine, and Jill learn about "Langley".

Oh good lord opinions are like a**holes everyone has one and is entitled to it, this thread would be pretty boring if everyone was all roses and sunshine when it comes to Y&R. I like reading the different opinions, viewpoints and etc. and haven't had a problem reading them until today when it became personal yet again.

      Yup.  You can hate John all you want, but like seriously he was the cornerstone of the show for years.  So he should get a long ass funeral and burial and all the things because Drake and John deserve that.

      Yes. We should absolutely move on from John/Drake's 40 year legacy on the show to see what Leo is going to do tomorrow.  Lol.  This can't be a serious post.

      I came in with a dream and left with a purpose. From lecture halls to rehearsals, community work to creative sets, every moment shaped me. I’m so proud of the stories I’ve told here — and the ones still unfolding. Grateful to everyone who poured into me, supported me, challenged me, and believed in me. Fours up and peace out! #UCLA #ClassOf2025 #BlackBruinExcellence #YearbookVideo @jordanward

      The actor who plays Martin has been teasing that nobody has guessed Martin's secret. I love that for things like that and the June story we have no idea. I feel like if we didn't have the day ahead feeds Anita's reveal would've been shocking as well. I love that they aren't going the obvious route with these stories.

      I tried following the news in Los Angeles at https://laist.com (independent public radio and news) They had up-to-the minute accurate info during the wildfires in January. There's no video, no impact to my mind as to what's happening. Trying other outlets, to get the truth, but it's hard.

      That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April.

      As The World Turns Discussion Thread

      I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!
