Y&R: Episodes Discussion for the week June 22

[a2sassy]

That damn Patty Jane is one SICK bitch!

I really like MM. He really captivates me. I find that I can't help from notlooking away from the screen when he's on, waiting to see what he'll do next. He seems to be expressing a complex combination of emotion a lot better than CE did too.

I cannot believe TPTB made me hate Nick and Sharon. God damn them!! I've loved this couple when they slept with random people, even when Morrow and Case were really bad actors and now they're so vapid, they're nauseating. God, this is like Lily all over again. Dammit!!!! It should be a joy to see when people are happy on soaps, at least for the first few weeks of reconciliation. Not bored or disgusted.

[Juliajms]

Get out of my head!! I completely agree with you on both fronts. I liked CE a lot, but there is something about MM that just does it for me. I find him tons sexier than CE.

And I also could not agree more on N&S and my anger with TPTB on how this reunion has been done. Not that I've ever been their biggest fan even, but their first reunion after Cassie's death should have been a good one. Even if it was short lived it should have been good, not this horrible, sappy parody.

[rhythmchyc]

Ooh, I love those cliffhangers!!

Kinda pissed it's Nick's but maybe this was better in the long run.

Mary Jane

And I like how MM touches his screen partners. It's very effective. Damn! If he hadn't killed that damn baby, I'd be all of Adam being vengeful. And his monologue about why he was doing this should've been stated six months ago, or whenever it was revealed and obviously repeated every other week dammit.

[rhythmchyc]

Yeah, I think he's sexier too. He's more of a man. Physically, neither are hot like Morrow, but I don't think that's a problem.

I wonder if it was their intention to make this N&S reunion so wrong.

I also liked Mac and Billy today. Chemistry is still off but it was classic soap for Chloe to not only walk in but to spill the beans to Mac that Billy slept with Sharon. Nice!!

[Y&RWorldTurner]

So, now they give us a scene where Adam talks about Hope/to her? God, talk about sh!tty pacing and not knowing when things should occur.

I like MM so far, for his first week, I think he's doing OK. It should be better once he gets settled into the pace of daytime better.

Blah to Patty Jane and Summer's convenient peanut allergy causing her to snap into a coma. Don't care about Shick, don't care about Phick especially, and don't care what the hell happens to that overall quad. Summer could die and this story still wouldn't have any sympathy or significance from my view.

Whatever to Adam and Rafe, those two characters were used sporadically together and now we're to believe Rafe has deep feelings for Adam too? A crush I would understand alone, but this feelings bull is too much to believe. This storyline is going to bomb hard, I can feel it in my bones.

Once again, this show is hollow and a mess. Blech.

And since we know the spoiler about what Sharon does next week, it makes that scene today with her saying that Cassie left her and Nick one last gift by making the baby theirs even more absurd. So, this was a happy gift from Cassie, and Sharon's going to

of Summer's coma? This is some Passions sh!t.

[Juliajms]

I'm so sick of hearing about Cassie's "prediction". Give it up already!

[rhythmchyc]

Yeah, they're writing this like a primetime show, that's the problem with the pacing and general storytelling. They have a lot of good characters. They just don't know how to present them in this medium correctly IMO.

No!! I don't know what happens next week. Come on!! Spoiler tag that please!

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Then they shouldn't be writing for a daily serial. This is a farce, and so stupid on their part. Daytime is not and never should be primetime. Sheffer and Hamner have never gotten that, MAB is just boring and has little television writing experience period.

Relax, the most important thing is wrapped up in a spoiler tag.

[YRBB]

I hate those spoiler tags. Can't we just go back to the blackened thingy?

[detroitpiston]

MM needs to stop moving his arms so much, other then that he's pretty much on par with CE in the acting department.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

I miss it too. LOL!

[mr. sweet]

I really like the new actor who is playing Adam. I am anxious to see where he takes this role.

[YRBB]

I will be checking MM out during the weekend--my curiosity is killing me.
