Y&R: Episodes discussion., Week of June 29,2009

Oh please. Is Saint Lily even eating meat these days? She'd probably hate Obama for life for killing that damn fly a couple weeks ago.

After that silver chipmunk, I don't need to see anymore talking animals on Y&R LOL.

Jill was a businesswoman for over 25 years, and was seen as a valuable player. The idea that we're supposed to believe she only had any success because of Katherine, and that Victor would say this, is ridiculous. I think there's a basic lack of respect in the writing for Jill and Nikki and neither are seen as their own person. I know this isn't new for Jill but it's gotten worse with this regime, and I think it was very sudden and depressing for Nikki, all that time spent on her being told a zillion times that she was a murderer, and instead of having any self-respect or fighting back, she just descended into booze and rolling around on the beach.

That's why I wasn't that surprised when they were two of the first to be pushed into taking a loss on contract negotiations.

LOL! It's taxidermy, Alvin. It's preserved like that permanently. Yes, that's how it really works. They're not making stuff up.

[MTSRocks]

I don't think Victor meant it that way.

And I thought MTS/Nikki was SUPERB in those drunken Mexico scenes.

[brimike]

See, now you're just looking for more stuff to find wrong. Isn't there enough that really IS wrong without you gleefully adding more to the mix? They need to focus on the real problems here.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Oh, I know what it is, but I usually associate it with wild animals. Who does that to a common house pet?

That's why I thought Kitty was just dead, and nothing more and I don't remember if Patty Jane mentioned taking Kitty to a taxidermist. LOL!

[brimike]

Oh my God! Lousy continuity! No longterm planning! Patty never mentioned anything about a taxidermist before! It's just like Passions! AHHHH!!!!!!

Sorry. Feelin' punchy tonight. Forgive me. (Please?)

[Y&RWorldTurner]

No, Kitty wasn't mentioned as a problem. I saw her at the end of the clip rhythmchyc posted in spoiler tags, and I wondered if Kitty was just dead, and I didn't assume Patty took her to a taxidermist.

Hey, I make no bones about my pessimistic outlook of the world. The only thing I need optimism about in reagrds to this show is keeping the faith alive that Cane will in fact die painfully one day.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

You said it, not me.

Maybe you need a Kitty of your own.

[cara mia]

MJ has a soft & furry kitty that's really dead. I am trying to unpack the symbolism!

[brimike]

I do have one. It's called this message board. LOL!

[Y&RWorldTurner]

[Juliajms]

You'd be surprised. Some people don't know when to let go.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

True, people do love their pets more than their fellow humans it seems.

[Cheap21]

I still dont think Jill would be caught dead working at a nail saloon. Howw much do they even pay? Definetly not enough for her to sustain her lifestyle and with it paying so low, why would she even bother wasting her time? Plus she would die of embarassment if someone recognized her and that alone would keep her from there.

This is why I hated the Jill is not Katherine's twist. After all the bonding they've done over the past few years and how she genuinley came to love and accept Katherine as her mother, she finds out they arent blood related so she'd rather work at a nail saloon than continue living as Katherine's daughter complete wtih all the benefits that the Chancellor fortune provides? Um whatever.
