If it doesn't happen, oh well. It still doesn't discredit the fact that many disturbing and problematic spoilers that were leaked weeks, if not months in advance this year regarding Y&R turned out to be true. You can't fault people for being pessimistic or sometimes realistic - we've been burnt too many times this year.

Did people initially believe Colleen was going to die and Victor was going to get her heart? I don't think so. Did people initially believe that Mary Jane/Patty was going to cause a little girl brain damage and kill Zapato? Nope.

Charming.

Sorry, but I don't take orders from you. Why don't you put me on ignore if my posts are so hard for you to handle?

And "girl scout routine"? WTH?

ETA: Forget it. I don't want to know.

But look at how many rumors were going around earlier this year that turned out NOT to be true: KSJ being fired, Jana dying, Kevin and Amber hooking up, Colleen leaving town after Brad's death, Bryton going recurring, Dru returning, and I'm sure there were more that I can't think of right now.

Yes, but most of those had to do with contract issues or characters being written off/returning.

It seems like the most morbid of spoilers turned out to be true this year, especially about characters being killed off, mostly for very stupid reasons or none at all. Fans are just on edge and for some, it's very hard to remain optimistic given the condition of the show and what's happened this year.

Thanks! I think it just goes to show what a Hack MAB is because if she was looking for a tie for Nick and Sharon then his name is Noah. She had a chance to really write a good storyline and one that would explain why Sharon slept with 3 different men and didn't know who the father was but instead she threw away a good storyline to please fans when all she had to do was remember Noah is always going to be the link for Sharon & Nick.

Sometimes IIC underestimate the importance of Friends or frenemy chemistry in favor of a Love Connection. Phyllis & Drucilla comes to mind, as does Dru & Olivia and Dru & Sharon. I love these relationships that aren't about being the next true wuv of somebody's life and feel they have just as viable a place on soaps as couplings. Michael & Phyllis are just such a relationship.

Despite CLB's sexuality, I buy that Michael and Lauren are married, committed and in love with each other. Lauren has fulfilled Michael in a way that no other woman has ever done. I also buy that Michael and Phyllis have a close, loyal and believeable friendship. It is built on a similar sense of humor and snark. They can relate to each other's flaws. But Michael and Phyllis making love? Can't see it. And I cannot see them generating the same physical heat that Morrow and Stafford have (even though I'm not nuts about Phick, that physical component is very much there).

I actually don't mind Jana. Actually, I'd really like for Jana to get a headache and Amber's head to explode and then die and then "Daniel the Little Artist" (insert lisp on artist), comes out of the closet and turns out to be gay.

Really? See, I think Daniel has the most potential to be gay on that show. To me, it just always made sense. I can see Phyllis being the mother of a gay son and being all about his boyfriends.

Sharon on the other hand, I really like her chemistry with Adam, and would like to see that develop, but since the writer's so badly damaged the character of Adam that will never become anything serious. It would be more interesting if Sharon didn't get pregnant already and have her baby. And if Adam was really after Sharon only to piss off Nick, and Sharon ends up in bed with both Nick and Adam (at separate times of course), ends up pregnant, and not know who the father is (as usual). Adam then falls in love with Sharon, she learns the baby is Adam's and Nick goes nuts and leaves Genoa City.

      Yeah I saw it and it's still idiotic. I like the Pope, but it's not interrupt shows newsworthy

      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.
