Yeah allow me to theorize. Billy vs Adam or Nick. Ashley vs Nikki (throw Victoria somewhere int he mix with Abby caught in the middle) and Jack vs. Adam or upto something. i wonder how they are trying to set it up with EB temp out the mix (I don't think that's gonna last)

NOOOOOOOOO!!!! (for me) He's bland and boring Sharon has too many issues she needs an interesting lead male character opposite the character to have the story be interesting. The only reason y Nick no longwer cuts it is well, because we are mostly tired of the same old tune. Mac as written now is another Vicki she needs to be redeveloped properly and a mature woman character. JT won't help that maybe I'lls ee him in a good pairing if the character is given a lil bit more spice though I did see him with Colleen but tptb took away that vision

PB is next ont he target list I'm sure

Kudos to the team for bringing back Beth and allowing her center stage.

It was so refreshing to see a veteran character,a 'middle age',plus size woman taking the lead,and bringing it home.

Traci should definitely stay on in a revived Jabot/Abbott storyline.

A pity we didn't see flashbacks of Colleen's birth.

Thank God Ashley is being presented as a stronger woman.It seems the whole breakdown will be forgotten,now she is a mother.

If they had to go the baby switch route,I think it would have worked better had Adam developed an obsession for Ashley because of her kindness,and she had a phantom pregnancy from the beginning,with Adam switching babies to save her the painful reality.

We need to see Ashley questioning the delivery.

Now that the transplant,baby switch and Patty's reign of terror are over,the show has a chance to go in a new positive direction.

Please,please,please get rid of Amber and the whole story.

Start writing for Mac,Chloe,Chance,Noah.

Have Paul investigate Patty's past and have him and Lauren grow closer.

Good heavens too funny!!!! :lol::lol: Actually from my perspective it is Sharon who needs to be stable..doesn't she have a teenager she needs to take care of, find a home, get a job, pick up a hobby or something. Watching the writers pass around the Sharon character for the past few years is like watching someone trying on pairs & pairs of shoes that are two sizes too small!! :blink:

I cannot stand the character but I would give the writers my left eye if they can make her interesting and not the same one note character that she has been for well over a decade now. Though I am not going to lie, I love the Nick Newman obsession story for so many reasons!! :lol: I mean Y&R comes on, cue Sharon and her WOE IS ME and CRYING!! If rumors are true and there is a Sharon and Adam pairing that just might cure me of my carpal tunnel syndrome whenever the character appears (it gets really hard when you have to press & hold the FF button).

Mark, that's only really a problem in coastal states, as some sea birds mistake floating deflated balloons for jellyfish, and try to eat them. In Wisconsin, that's not any kind of an issue as a balloon would never reach the ocean. You'd be surprised how animals choke and die on even natural things. Cows choke all the time on Hedge apples, but they still keep eating them!

I just hope she knows how many fans were affected by her performance.

Back when I started with Y&R I could watch the show -- and I would usually just watch. Like a pretty painting. Everything was very well put together and impressively crafted. There were a lot of characters, even if I liked them, I had no real reaction towards. Traci, she was always a character who made me feel her pain or her joy. Even all this time later, it's the same. With Traci, I'm not bored, or annoyed, or sad about wasted potential. I just feel what she is feeling. It's what soaps should be about.

We should send in some scripts where Traci falls in love with Daniel, finds Deacon irresistible, and frequently screams in frustration as her plans to keep the valuable first edition of Flowers in the Attic all to herself are foiled by Victoria, who says the book oddly inspires her. Traci then makes plans with Steve, dressed up as Estella and Miguel, to steal the very valuable blue plate hanging in Victor's (or as he will now be known, "Mr. N") ranch house.

Look out Adrienne Frantz and Judith Chapman.

    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
