Y&R: Potpourri Thread 4


Recommended Posts

Well, the chronology is a bit off. I don't think I wanted one of Mac's twins to be Billy's UNTIL the twins were announced. It's not like I predicted/wanted twins. And the Mary Jane = Patty belonged to Cashton (or maybe Cara Mia).

Hey, great idea! If "Hack"iello (quotes intentional) and gang are stealing ideas, then what about putting out some good ones? :lol: Otherwise they'll just keep stealing my sh!t.

You got me! I'm the puppet! I also share Nancy Lee Grahn's political gospel and Christel Adnana's faith proclamations. I am "embedded"; implanted social marketing! Can't you see how much subtle influence I have??

ETA: Reading it again, it seems to me that Alvin has blamed me for every piece of sh!t to hit our screens in the past year! Gee thanks! At least I didn't get blamed for Silver Chipmunk :lol:

You still advocated for most of that months in advance...

Given the episodes he writes, hack would be a fitting name, IMO.

But good speculation has been given out, but they never go for it. They always go right for the absurd and plot above character integrity speculation. That's their writing style and that's the ideas they're attracted to. We can't change that.

But Mark, you advocated for A LOT of this months before it showed up on the show.

The Silver Chipmunk fiasco just proves the type of ideas and stories this crappy writing team is into.

But anyway, let's take it to the Potpourri.

Definitely: I'll cop to the baby switch and to the Adam-and-Ashley romance. One happened (but I truly believe I was simply reacting to what I saw on screen...what many of us, to be honest, saw was coming), and the other didn't. (Sharon never crossed my mind at the time, because she was not on Adam's radar).

I just think some of us -- me included -- have become VERY adapt at seeing the cliche setups LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG before they occur. I think I may differ from some of you in that I like some of those cliches :lol:. Trust me, if I had original, useful ideas, I wouldn't just be speculating with fellow fans on a message board.

But it's okay to believe that anything I say influences the show--I don't mind getting an aggrandized sense of power when the reality is the opposite.

As was mentioned elsewhere, you have the direction of causation wrong. I'm just a marionnette sending out advance-flags of storylines to come (that have been fed to me by the hacks).

Why is Jeffrey still on this show?

Mark, I do think you're right that it's not hard to tell where these stories go. The writers are nowhere near as clever as they think they are. How long did it take people to figure out Tucker was Katherine's son? Five minutes?

Gloria needs to go too, even with the possibility of getting a new story, she's still useless and not needed.

Yes, a lot of these stories are predictable and their direction is predictable. But some of these stories were advocated for months in advance before there was a hint of them to come on the show.

I'm still baffled that Colleen's death and how she died was spoiled on here months in advance. So was Zapato's death. I wonder if that has changed some direction since then, like the rumor of Ryder raping Eden, and of Sheila as the mother, etc.

That's what I think, Carl.

It's actually Alvin who brought us the Zapato and Colleen spoilers. I'm guessing he brought them over from DR/Kennylicious, but I'm not so sure about that.

I have never once believed the Ryder rumor.

Ah, thank you! So would this picture about 1976? Or is it as late as 1977? I'm thinking so (because of Joanne), but I didn't think Bill Foster was still around that late.

People were wary, but moila did reveal the Neil/Ashley & Paul/Nina pairings and other stuff but I forget what. I remmember when the Colleen story leaked (curiously quickly followed by two more spumors to throw us off) and nobody believed it because it was too ridiculous. Look how wrong we were. :lol:
