Y&R: Potpourri Thread 2

[MoTheGreat]

They talking about a recast still a Dru one. Maybe they making room for Dru. This time they going ot make her look exart silly then before. I wish they leave Dru where she at until they can get a writer that can do black characters like Dru justice.

[DeeeDee]

Yep!

[dm.]

I was all for "Colleen" surviving up until these days when I just don't care.

[MarkH]

She should still survive, to be recast another day.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

She'll die, just like Zapato died, just like Brad died, just like Hope died, and just like Sabrina and David died...

[dm.]

You forgot Walter Palin, Marge, Clint Radison, and I'm sure there are more to come.

[MarkH]

Well, regimes notwithstanding, we can add John and Dru and Terrible Tom. The deaths started then, in earnest. Oh yeah, Ji Min. Carmen Mesta. Pheila.

According to DC, Y&R will wasting money on a remote for the climax of the Patty Jane story at L.A.'s Franklin Canyon

Park.

Patty Jane just needs to go way, I can't beleive they're wasting a remote on this b!tch.

[dm.]

I still feel bad (and always will) for Stacy Haiduk getting wasted yet again. First AMC cuts her like that and now the same thing happens on Y&R. And what for? Shock, shock, shock.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Oh god, there's spumours that Nikki's return story will be a copy of Victor's story with Hope.

They're saying a farmer will nurse Nikki back to heath and she'll fall in love with him, she'll forget most of her memouries, she'll go back to Genoa City, and that the farmer will turn out to be Katherine's son.

I hope to god this is fake, and if it's true, it shows how much Maria and her band of hacks are so uncreative and use "history" for all the wrong reasons.

[MarkH]

Okay, so I'm surmising that Patty will end up with Sharon's baby. She'll be at Canyon's Edge, and Jack and Paul will have to talk her back from the edge, for the well being of the child.

The question is whether Haiduk will then fall off the cliff, or whether they will write a redemption? With a canyon remote, it seems more likely that Haiduk's Patty is going to go the way of Drucilla...for now, at least.

Still...making lemonade...an actual canyon remote seems a LOT more worthwhile than that CGI-death Dru got.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

They won't waste time on a redemption arc MarkH, you know that.

Like Kevin and Gloria, they'll probably have her cry and say how sorry she is for 5 minutes, and then she's back to being an integrated member of society.

You know how this writing regime works. Everything must be rushed or completely forgotten!

Patty Jane should be sent to prison or a nuthouse, off screen. She's created too many crimes for such a short period of time back. She's nonredeemable, and since they love rushing stuff, she won't get the redemption she needs.

[MarkH]

I don't see Haiduk sticking around at this point. I think she's off the cliff....

[Y&RWorldTurner]

I hope you're right. This writing regime has shown just how much they hate paring down, and how they'll keep characters on who are long last their expiration date and do nothing substantial with them.

[bellcurve]

Do not diss daytime CGI like that. CGI looks fake, but it's an aesthetically beautiful kind of fake.

Dru's death was via crappy greenscreen.
