Y&R: Episode Discussion for the week of August 3rd

NINA

They should have left the dog alone in the first place. I'm tempted to stop watching, not because I'm a rabid animal activist, but just out of the pure unnecessaryness of it...

C'mon, as my friend Cory used to say "I like Dogs. Dogs are good people."

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Of course they were gonna kill the dog, they've already killed several adults, and this same one-note psycho almost killed a kid, so naturally she's moving onto the dog.

This is the character that has long-term power? Yeah, whatever.

What's a redemption arc with this idiot writing regime? 5 minutes of crying and saying you're sorry, and then everything will be dropped?

[ian]

lol the people who comment about dog deaths are right: People are killed left and right and we dont bat an eye, but lordy lordy... kill an animal? People get pissed. It's mostly because it's super unnecessary, generally. Unless it's a bear charging at you leave the ƒucker alone!

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Nothing like raping a man and then killing a dog.

This story is officially a train-wreck, much like the gaslighting fiasco, which is only getting worse according to spoilers.

[ian]

Well, I mean by all accounts it's just a good thing Zapato wasn't JACK'S dog. To be raped and have your dog murdered all in one week would just take Jack to a new level of LOSER, not to mention finding out you were roped as a faux-daddy in order to prop St. Nick by your WHORE wife who only took you for a ride and never loved you.

Honestly, he should tell everyone that if he wanted to be sh!t on he'd do Dutch porn. Jack is always the fall-guy, the kid is never (or rarely) Jack's (unless it's a plot device, as is the case with Kyle). The woman never sticks around Jack and often goes to Victor or Nick. Legend has it EB INSISTED on having a higher episode guarantee than PB. If Victor is truly the 'victor' then Jack should just change his name to 'defeated'

[ian]

Scratch that, actually not in one week, in the same DAY (on show, two different eps or so)

Have we mentioned the pacing is ass?

[dm.]

It's the worst I've ever seen. Horrible.

[ian]

you know now that you mentioned it I think people have talked about it... in a roundabout way... every once in awhile... all the time lmao

[MichaelGL]

Poisioning a child, then raping a man, and killing a dog. (Shakes head.)

[DRW50]

This is why I never thought that much about what they would do to redeem her. I don't think they care about redeeming her. She's a garden variety headcase, like Adam. She will be disposed of and another will take her place.

I still don't get why they made her Paul's sister. I think they just randomly chose one of Jack's exes.

Bai Ling will probably be cast as an insane update of Luan when this story is over.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

They probably saw it on a message board and went with it.

[Soapsuds]

MAB will probably say Patty Jane is an imposter and Poof...Andrea Evans returns as the real Patty...LMAO

[lmfan]

Nope they will probably need Andrea Evans to play Amber's mother when they find a way to make Amber Katherine's granddaughter.

I just can't see how they redeem MJ at this point. They will probably make her pregnant, but will that automatically make her sane? Good actress but the character is pycho. They redeemed characters like Michael, Phyllis and Kevin but they weren't this crazy.

[MichaelGL]

Well she's going to be around for a bit longer, if they make her preggers with Jack's baby after their "one nighter".
