Members bellcurve Posted August 3, 2009 Members Share Posted August 3, 2009 I am absolutely NOT looking forward to Y&R in HD post-budget cuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 3, 2009 Members Share Posted August 3, 2009 I initially thought Rauch being in charge of production was a good thing, and the show certainly doesn't look as bad as most soaps, but it's lost a certain finesse production-wise, especially lately. But it's all looking so bland and fake now. I mean GH had their big budget cuts last year, but damn, they're really rocking it in HD now. The colours just pop and everything looks so cinematic, Jill knows her sh!t. Y&R used to be like that, but when I watch it in HD now, it isn't even comparable anymore. It just looks bland as hell. Rauch is pushing 80, maybe its time to get a better technical producer, in addition to a new writing team, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BadZoe Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Tuesday's Y&R was so boring it almost put me to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lovely_m Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 picture from delusionaltruth.com I always thought that LML figured since they're together in real life they would be great on screen. I alway knew about Amelia & Thad, but not Micheal and Adrienne. So Daniel became a porn addict and Lane came to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Greg's GL Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 LOL! I really don't like how they only roll out Noah to complain or bitch to his parents how inept at parenting they actually are. Noah/KS is a well-liked character, the actor is very compelling and capable (his scene in the hospital when he learned Brad died was ). There is no reason why a younger set couldn't be built around him. Eden needs to go. She's never seen and she's annoying as hell. Abby isn't much better IMHO. The only time you see her all she talks about is going shopping. Ugh. Or bitchin at Noah about Eden. zzzzzz. I might be asking for too much from these writers, but Noah could really drive story that would be good to watch. The emancipation SL COULD have been interesting if we didn't see it only once a month and we saw some character motivation/slow build to the plots. Oh...wait. I guess I am asking too much. Haven't watched Monday's ep yet, but based on these comments I will probably skip it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 ITA. Kevin Scmidt is the lynchpin around which Y&R's teen set should be built. He is a great find. Eden can be recast (eh) or go join her great-aunt Rainbow Weathermen McHippie at the ahhhhhhsh-rahhhhhm. But please don't let the actress playing Abby go! I think she's got potentially, and her scenes with Noah always pop. She is the perfect spoiled princess/mean girl in her riding jodpurs, pearls and long blonde hair. She is Cher from Clueless. She also has great chemistry with her "half-nephew" and I love the fact they confide in one another about everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Greg's GL Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Mmmm hmmmm. Buh-bye Eden! Don't let the door hit your gypsy ass on the way out! I never thought of that, Cat. I will concede that Abby is nowhere near as annoying as Eden. She can stay as long as we get to actually SEE her more than once every couple months.

Members Cat Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 CHER: Daddy's a litigator. Those are the scariest kinds of lawyers. Even Lucy, our maid, is terrified of him. He's so good he gets paid five hundred dollars an hour just to fight with people, but he fights with me for free 'cause I'm his daughter! ABBY: Daddy's an a$$hole. Those are the scariest kinds of CEOs! Even Estella, our maid, is terrified of him. He's so good he gets paid five hundred dollars an hour just to mumble and ignore people, but he ignores me for free 'cause I'm his daughter! ----- CHER: Isn't my house classic? The columns date all the way back to 1972. Wasn't my Mom a betty? She died when I was just a baby. A fluke accident during a routine liposuction. ABBY: Isn't my house classic? The tiny, dark little sets date all the way back to 1973. Wasn't my Mom an ashley? She died when I was just a teenager.

Members ian Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 lol with such an old EP, I bet he was astounded just learning that they broadcast IN COLOUR - and that this thing called the Interweb can also show episodes. Trying to explain HD would just send the man reeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members CSF Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Woah Billy!!!!!!!! "You could always go back to painting nails or doing what you do best. I'm sure even with the recession there are a few lonely rich men looking for some company" As much as I love Jill, it makes me sick that she always chose Cane over Billy. Jill really deserved that one! I just wish her brothers were still on the show so she could vent to a Foster. Hell, I wish her "mother" Liz was still on the show!

Members CSF Posted August 4, 2009 Members Share Posted August 4, 2009 Patty Jane and the Chancellor scenes are the only thing good about this show. Today's episode was pretty good. Yesterday was basically yawn city! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
