Y&R: Potpourri Thread 2

The Scoobies all need to be go.

They don't need to go - they just need to no longer be "Scoobies". They need to stop committing crimes (even relatively harmless ones), Daniel and Amber need to break up and Kevin and Jana need to be distanced from them.

Amen to this... when you look at Beth's performances from 1982, and compare them with Hayley's??? That girl's parents HAVE to know somebody .

Oh, please.

Vail Bloom is perfection! I would never accept a Heather recast. She's so beautiful and looks like Paul and April's daughter. I think Bill Bell would've taken an actress like her and ran with it. She does have charisma and has done great work at times. She also has had chemistry with just about any man she's shared scenes with. I'd much rather they test her romantically with everyone rather than this garbage as the ADA. It's a losing role in soaps and she's too young to be trashed like that.

Yes!!

Vail Bloom is still listed under recurring in the Y&R credits. I guess she was never offered a new contract. I doubt Heather's role will be expanded upon anytime soon, this writing regime seems to have very little interest in her if they're not making her look like an incompetent ADA to push their agendas about other characters.

Heather is just silly as ADA. Silly. Bordering on laughable.

ICAM.

But seing sexy Vail onscreen is still nothing to be angry about. ;)

Well, I wouldn't really call her sexy. She's so sleepy and just blasé in most of her scenes. I mean, I don't hate her, she can stay, whatever, she makes her appearances a snoozefest.

I guess it's a matter of personal preference but she is sexy she just seems to interpret the role of a D.A. as a stiff for some odd reason, or maybe that's how she's being directed. But in the days of Engen during that chemistry test she was oozing with sexuality

I'll hold onto to Liz Hendrickson as long as I have to deal with Khalil and to a lesser extent Ford and also I must say manytimes Frantz.

That's what I said Chloe is needed to balnace out the blandness of CKLily & Mac.

Oh I know who the recast is and I do love it. :) Oh well, I'll continue to stay out of that thread. Thanks for the info DD.

That thread isn't talking terrible about the recast.

DeeeDee, seeing Raul and Heather's names next to each other makes me think how sexy they'd be together. He deserves better than GrandMac. I also think I'd die if Christine and Heather had a scene together. My little gay heart would definitely stop. That would be epic.

Pretty much.

Her emoting needed to improve. Period. I specifically remember a scene where Sherwood's Lily asked Daniel if he was cheating on her, and the delivery sounded like she was asking how he likes his coffee. And by the end of her stint she looked like she didn't even want to be there.

Khalil is definitely a limited actress, but compared to Sherwood, she's the lesser of two evils.

I just don't see what so special about CK emoting. when she get hurt I cheer on the person who hurt her. Matter of fact I want them to keep hurting her. I'm sure that's not the reaction they want from a viewer. Since her emote is so powerful.

Sherwood is above boring & bland CK acting range. She brough freshness to Lily because of her chemistry with people that played Niel, Dru, Daniel, & Devon. CK didn't bring in anything & she still not bringing anything to the role of Lily.

Yup. It's really from that amazing time with Engen that she "re-engineered" my image of her. I've been a fan ever since. Seeing her all buttoned up and vindictive...I just want to see a man help her get all unbuttoned...and also get a little more exploration of the roots of her sanctimoniousness. I think we kind of know why she is all law-and-order.

I kind of wish she and Chance would bump into one another...and behind closed doors get all wild and lose their stuffed shirts.

Sounds to me like we have our next Soapnet primetime spinoff! I could totally enjoy that, though I wouldn't enjoy it on the Y&R regular show. Teenage runaways and seniors threatened with eviction on a regular basis. It's just too much....

CK whines --- that's not emoting. She doesn't do sarcasm or comedic well which made her look amateur beside E. Hendrickson who is just excellent at that. Her puppy love thing is all she seems to be able to hit (Lily should be past that). She doesn't do tragedy well (mostly because she never seems invested in it). The difference beetween Ck and Sherwood approach is Sherwood seemed to me a bit tougher for the softer Lily but with her I truly believe the character would have grown. I was starting to see her meet the emotional demands of the role while still keeping her fire, i.e. the Devon meningitis storyline. Sherwood also exuded a confidence as Lily Winters that was believable against , as well as reminiscent of, Drucilla & Neil Winters. Even if Sherwood isn't right for Lily Khalil doesn't cut it nor is she better.

It's very disturbing how peoploe are rooting for Adam & Sharon. Are these Phick fans because people shouldn't be cheering on the man to be with Sharon after he toook her baby away. Either they don't have children or never lost a child.
