QUOTE (Chris B @ Jun 18 2009, 09:04 AM)
Okay Mary Jane fans...here are the scenes where her divorce from Jack are finalized. I think I have some more scenes with her, but I'll have to look. There's so little Patty online which is a shame.

Patty and Jack Divorce Part One

If you look in my videos you will find part two and three.

OMG:

"Are you sure what you needed was a woman? And not a mother?" :wub:

"What you had was a silly little girl. What I had was a silly grown up boy." :wub:

Looks like Jack's still a silly grown up boy who doesn't work with klepto/psychotic grown up girls either.

Aren't us folks at SON a "fanbase", too? All fans are part of one fanbase or another. The problem with Lane is not the idea or Lane or the fans of Lane. The problem is that MAB has no feeling for them as a couple and it shows in the writing. Even though Lane is not my first choice for either Cane or Lily, I can see many ways that a writer who did "feel" them could write them as interesting and worthwhile. The sad & ironic thing is that MAB does feel Billy & Mac but a horrible casting choice and an utter lack of chemistry between the actors means that the writer's passion is all for naught.

MAB also feels for art, so obviously I have very little patience and liking for the crap she cares for.

I see ratings are back to the lows the show experienced last year, and the show is actually down a bit in total viewers from last year AGAIN. I think more and more people are realizing what crap this show has deteriorated into.

To give MAB the benefit of the doubt, the ratings dip might be related to digital conversion. Also, fans might be online or watching soapnet.

That said, I think she may have killed the goose that lays the golden egg with the ruination of Jack, Sharon, Nick and Phyllis. Something is deeply wrong when I, as a Shick fan, could not care less about their reunion. This is something I've been waiting for ever since they broke up. The musical beds and the out of character writing, especially for Nick, have destroyed my affection for these characters. Without the Quad inspiring the passion it used to, where is the show going? As a Shick fan, I would much rather Nick stay with Phyllis and for all four characters to be written as real people than to have this cheap and tawdry plot-driven dreck. Nick is more dead to me than Victoria. How can MAB not see that she has gutted one of her main leading man? Oh, and what's been done to Jack is nearly as bad. We're being invited to PITY poor purse-holding Jack. What the [!@#$%^&*]? This is Jack Abbott!? And we're supposed to forget that he has two other kids?

There's a reason for this. ratings dip EVERY summer. It's a matter of kids being out of school, summer vacations, and since prime time is all repeats, alot of people just kind of forget about TV until fall comes again. Just like ratings are always low for holiday episodes. But of course, I don't expect you to believe that... you think the show is 95% crap, yet you like Cast/Walton/Cooper... I bet Jeanne, Jess and Tricia would be glad to know you consider them only 5% of the show. And ALOT of people care about art, you just don't. Just because YOU don't care for it, doens't mean it has no place on TV. I don't care for it, either... but I can RESPECT IT'S RIGHT TO EXIST. I'm sure alot of people in this world could care less about corporate intrigue that you treasure so much, but you know... if you want to run things, get your own damn show. Y&R doesn't exist just to please you, you know.

Eh. No. The show TIED its RECORD LOWS in households and is DOWN in total VIEWERS from LAST YEAR THIS TIME, which isn't good and doesn't make the future look any better.

As I don't know them personally and they don't know me, why the hell should I care about this again??!?!

Hence why the show always fails when art is apart of a storyline and why the show hit record lows last year when art was dominant on the show and has tied record low ratings this week when the art storyline is prominent.

Yeah, the same corporate intrigue that was apart of the show over 20 years...

And where did I say this? You to stop assuming. This is a message board and this is the Y&R discussion thread, if you don't like people critiquing the show, you can easily skip over those posts. I like to read a variety of things, and I watch the show every day. If it isn't entertaining me and I find it to suck, you bet I'm going to post my feelings on it. I don't post here to please you, you know.

Go Nina! Loved her lying to Jill. LOL Cane's getting nervous........

You noticed that too, eh. :lol:

Specific/detailed talk from Sylph? Dude, that's NEVER going to happen. :lol:

Thanks for trying. LOL

I love the Rikaart/Frantz comedy too. They should have more comedy to balance out the dark stories.

Because they are talented, hardworking, and deserving of our admiration and support. And saying they are 5% of the show, when they are more like a THIRD (Or in the case of Cooper, the reason this show is even ON THE AIR) is a disservice to them and diminishes their contribution. But I know your M.O. you want to support your postings no matter what, even if it means belittling those great actresses.
