Y&R: Episodes discussion, week of February 22, 2010

[bellcurve]

He's been making subtle changes for months now.

Y&R should not be lit like a Wal-Mart.

[DeeeDee]

With Rauch in charge Y&R isn't getting any darker.

I admit, i've noticed the subtle changes you talk about... but this week it's just SLAPPING me in in the face. If it's about budget, I say we should have cut Braeden loose and kept the production values up.

[Juliajms]

I could forgive a lot of what is wrong with this show right now, but it's just so boring. There's nothing I'm excited about.

[MoTheGreat]

I think the cattle Mafia is going to change your mind especially the leader the mafia is gay Keemo.

[DeeeDee]

Death doesn't excite you?

[Juliajms]

I can't believe they aren't letting this die. It's like the godam% chipmunk. This regime wallows in it's mistakes instead of learning to let a bad idea die.

Unfortunately not. If it did I'm sure I'd be glued to my screen waiting to see which beloved legacy character will go next. I just can't believe Y&R has come to this.

Sorry if this has been discussed, but I get the feeling Jack's new wife(blanking on her name) is actually Patty Williams posing as the doctor. She somehow swapped places with the doctor, anyone else think so?

[bellcurve]

I don't think Braeden's salary has anything to do with the piss poor production values of Y&R. A good executive producer, worth his or her weight in gold, would be able to better execute alot of this stuff. How much more/less expensive would it be to tell the lighting grid guy to tone down the lights?

I don't believe it's just a director's decision either.

Y&R has basically become an arrogant, Midwestern Sunset Beach.

+1

[DRW50]

Yes, she switched places with her a few weeks ago. She hit Emily's head against that hard, hard padded wall.

[Juliajms]

Yes, Patty switched places with Emily we saw her drug Emily onscreen.

[MoTheGreat]

Well something is about to happen. that guy called Cane David. & then he goes & call somebody on the phone saying he found Cane. I bet the guy going to end up dead. & when the police man come they going ot see a lot of pictures of Cane around the room.

[bellcurve]

They did the switcheroo, on camera, a few weeks ago.

Not that this writing team or Stacy Haiduk is known for subtlety. I'm surprised they haven't went all Jim Reilly on us and pounded us with flashbacks and voiceovers ever five seconds. I guess those are next.

[catsmeouch]

Twenty dollars says the leader of the cattle mafia is Sheila Carter.

[dragonflies]

Thanks, I hadn't been watching that much and missed that. I could tell something was off with Jack's wife
