June 20, 200916 yr Member -Can't write for the minority characters (OK, the Winters). They need to change CK from Lily to Roxanne. Not only she's not connect to the Winters. They isolated Lily so much I wonder who the hell she is. This will be easier also to fraze out the Winters. I want Jack to be the father of both babies. At first I wanted Sharon away from the abbotts. But for him to be the father of both Phylis child Summer & Sharon baby. I can just picture them dropping or picking up there kids at the sametime at the Abbott house drama for years. Then you throw in Chloe. It will be good times at the Abbott Manison.

June 20, 200916 yr Member I don't necessarily think MAB needs to be fired. Hogan and Hamner, on the other hand, need to go ASAP. MAB needs someone more creative and respectful of the show's identity working with her. Edited June 20, 200916 yr by Hotness
June 20, 200916 yr Author Member I don't necessarily think MAB needs to be fired. Hogan and Hamner, on the other hand, need to go ASAP. MAB needs someone more creative and respectful of the show's identity working with her. I used to think that, then I remembered MAB's solo stint from a year ago. She's a boring, unimaginative writer that has no sense of pacing and plotting. Sheffer and Hamner are storytelling poison, there's no denying that, but MAB lets their worst tendencies happen on this show. She might tweak things here and there, but the balance in storytelling technique has become almost non-existent on this show. All I ask for is one solid storyteller, who possibly has a lower ranking Co-HW. I don't think MAB can properly handle the strong HW role. I wouldn't be opposed to her keeping her Co-EP credit, but hiring a stronger storyteller that respects the show's identity to craft and write storylines. Edited June 20, 200916 yr by Y&RWorldTurner
June 20, 200916 yr Member I thought you were one of the one's chanting a redemption and love story for Adam via Rafe. What changed? Baby-killer, burning a fetus, a sexual molester for Ash's doctor. All that is hard to get past. Knowing the spoilers, it's become obvious to me that Hogan or someone is using the character of Adam to live out seem deep woman-hating fantasy. I did study literature at school, so I may tend to overanalyze but I think I'm right about this.

June 20, 200916 yr Member Adam's storyline is beyond words. I still don't get why he freaked out like and is doing all these things. I still believe that all of Billy's storylines were planned for Adam and they switched due to Billy Miller's popularity. The Adam/Rafe thing sounds really stupid and comes out of nowhere. For years I wanted Patty to return AS PATTY not as Sheila.. Someone wants to become JER when they grow up... Jill used to be a person whose life revolved around sex and power. Watching old Y&R clips again made me miss Brenda Dickson and Jill as a vixen. Jess Walton is more Nora Buchanan than Jill. I hate weak Jack. I like bitchy Jack. Colleen is Australian and Lily is Indian/Palestinian SPOILER: Cassie is alive! She faked her death and returns as a psycho in order to take some DNA tests!!! Edited June 20, 200916 yr by Elsa
June 20, 200916 yr Author Member Finally! A place for all of us who want to be meanies and are destroying the wonderful experience Y&R is! What a pathetic argument that some make that just because some posters don't like the show it's ruining their experience of liking the show. If you really like a show, how is someone else's opinion going to change that?
June 20, 200916 yr Member Would it be somehow possible for Maria to write a "Adam is not Adam" storyline? In her signature style?
June 20, 200916 yr Author Member Would it be somehow possible for Maria to write a "Adam is not Adam" storyline? In her signature style? What's her signature style? Boring and cliche crap?
June 20, 200916 yr Member What's her signature style? Boring and cliche crap? Yup. Plus, I'll re-write anything to suit my purpose.
June 20, 200916 yr Author Member Yup. Plus, I'll re-write anything to suit my purpose. Rewrite and just not so subtly drop lines referring to past history to make the fanbois jump with glee. Maria doesn't use history for depth, she uses it to beat the audience over the head with it and because she's so lazy and non-creative to come up with her own storylines.
June 20, 200916 yr Member Y&R is following OLTL's footsteps. The gave Viki's storyline to Kay and "brought the show back to it's roots" for the first few months. Adam is MAB's InstaTodd and I am afraid that the returns of Nina, Patty a.o will be similar to "Princess Tina's".
June 20, 200916 yr Member Yup. Plus, I'll re-write anything to suit my purpose. I have to say, that when all of these rewrites start to look good and necessary, one starts to wonder why the writing was so originally bad that recons are so welcome. Some of it is LML's fault, but not all of it, that is for sure. Edited June 20, 200916 yr by Juliajms
