I would normally discount this but I am starting to see some patterns that are making this spumor a possibility.

It has been rumored for months that the character of Lauren would be getting a big fall sweeps story in order to kill her off a few months later. Well, now we are seeing Lauren in an emerging story.

Now, several boards have a "spumor" from an inside source that says the reason for the Lauren story is that MAB really wants to pair Michael and Phyllis as a couple. She's been chomping at the bit to free them both up for this big story of two best friends finding love after heartbreak. The source says that Nick is to be come obsessed over the Sharon/Adam relationship and that causes the final Phick breakup.

It's on SOC and Sony.

I'm okay with the Phick breakup.

I am not okay with killing Lauren. But all those vibes she's getting from Ryder...I believe that part too.

The thing I LEAST want to see is Phychael. Yuck. I never watched Will and Grace the first time.

I thought Sandra Nelson Phyllis and CLB were hot, but then, that was a very different Phyllis. I still laugh when I think about that scene after she slept with Jack in his office, and you hear a buzzing sound. You can't help thinking, just for a second, that she's using a vibrator...then the camera moves to them and Jack is using an electric razor.

I think CLB and Michelle work with the friends vibe but I can't see them as a couple.

As for Lauren...well, she's a longtime character who helped make Y&R #1, so I guess she'd have to die, wouldn't she?

I hope they at least bring Traci back for the funeral. Just bring her back for every funeral. We can hear her talk about her great friendship with Devon when they off him next year.

Oh, God... please don't let this happen! Especially the killing of Lauren. When I first started bitching about this regime's killing off of characters (Hope), I NEVER thought that it would continue to all it did... so that probably means this will happen as well. :wacko:

I get what you're saying, but the actor's sexuality should have nothing to do with how one judges a character relationship.

Michael is supposed to be straight, so CLB should be irrelevant in that sense.

I remember speculating a month or two ago that Y&R would probably be gearing up to kill Lauren for their February memorial service. They figure that just because Katherine's was a ratings hit that people want to see death and grief on a regular basis.

A big ugh to Micheal and Phyllis, this show has lost it.

Michael and Phyllis are too gay to be a couple. They are like gurlfriends now that CLB stopped reigning it in and has been allowed to run wild. No way I'll buy them as a couple! Now Sandra Nelson and Michael? HOT!!! They'll never touch that. Also, killing Lauren off would be a huge mistake, but it makes sense for what these writers want to do. I expect a major character to die every few months, then be forgotten.

Which is what I was saying. But then again - if Mark watched Will & Grace, he would've realised how stupid this comparison is and how no way Phyllis could be Grace. They are a miles apart. Will and Grace weren't lovers, besides...

Completely :blink: comparison!

I think the Will & Grace comment is cute, it's not a big deal. On the contrary, the people running with it are making a big deal about it. It was a simple analogy. <_<

I like Michael & Lauren, but I'm not that passionate about them- I wouldn't have a problem with Michael & Phyllis as a couple. But not at the expense of killing off Lauren. I always thought Lauren & Paul had mucho chemistry, and should get back together.

      As someone who was watching OLTL at the time, Dano did excellent work, but the writing was weird. Dano even got Emmy nominated for what she did. However, it did feel that the writers did not know what to do with her, but to be fair, it did feel like a lot of that was that the character was a network mandate and the writers were making it up as they were going on. I didn't watch Dano's trek around all the soaps. That kind of thing would have worked better with an ABC performer not someone who had been off OLTL for decades. I can't imagine AW without Felicia Gallant. I really don't want to because she provided so much joy for me when there was so much disappointment on that show. The only time I thought her character didn't work was the John/Felicia storyline but it got Anna Holbrook an Emmy so I can't complain all that much. It's just another example of drama at the expense of character.

      Bringing this over from the soccer/soaps ratings thread yesterday:  Errol said: "CBS put out a notice that it could preempt at a moment's notice as the Pope selection continues, dependent on how long it takes, of course." New pope just chosen, name to be announced soon. Yeah CBS-NewYork channel 2 is airing Pope coverage instead of Y&R right now.

      @brisbydog - I like that you have a signature font, très chic Abe and Paulina's new apartment was the first thing I noticed.  I don't understand why people over a certain age in Salem automatically move into a condo? When it seems just as simple to make the set seem like a detached home.  But, I will give points to attention to detail of choosing colors that compliment the Black actors in the scene. Which then led to the second thing I noticed.  Why would EJ want Kayla's office, when his is 3xs the size?  Also, even if he buys the hospital, won't Kayla get to keep her office? Lastly, can we at least give Cat the agency to decide on her own with whom she wishes to date?  Do men actually need to negotiate on her behalf?  She's stunning.  My advice would be if Chad is friend-zoning her after a year together, move on to his richer brother.

      OH!!! I love it. I can't believe I missed that. In one of the 2 fan events held the 2 years after the sorry end of our lovely show, both  Anna Stuart & Stephen Schnetzer attended & I got to talk to each of them. Obviously I was in heaven. Although at least I didn't do my shy star struck thing.

      We probably won't get any of our CBS soaps today cause of the Pope stuff, cause you know they have to air it on regular network despite having 24/7 news channels

      As well as insulting our host, being rude to some of the nicest members who correct you, and having an inflated sense of duty. While others may be able to add numerous offenses, the egocentrism to force any conversation off-topic to focus on you is the most egregious act for me.  This is light entertainment, an interactive discussion, not the shallotpeel-hour.

      Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show.
