Y&R: Week of March 8 Discussion

[DRW50]

Another sign of the lazy writing on this show -- how is it that after months of people telling Nikki that David Chow was the worst man ever, that David had killed Sabrina and Skye, that she should be dead because of letting David into their lives, that Nikki called Adam the worst man ever, or whatever she said, and no one batted an eye?

[MoTheGreat]

How can a stake kill people with no hearts? Could a sliver bullett do the job.

[Sylph]

Amen.

[Evan]

God, I hate Maria Arena Bell, she truly is a hack!

The character assassination job they've done on Adam is criminal!

I'm actually furious about this!

All that potential flushed down the drain, and for what? To revive Nick/Sharon again? GMAB.

BTW Michael Muhney rocked this week! If he is leaving, I'm sure he'll have no problem getting another gig on prime time.

I never believed that Bell intended to redeem Adam. The fact that they only gave MM a year contract confirms that in my mind. When he took over the roll, she merely continued on the same path to Adam's inevitable demise. She paid lip service to Branco about how wonderful MM was to play down the CE controversy. Having Adam get involved with Sharon was a Bob Guza tactic to ratchet up the drama of the reveal. It is smart in the sense that almost everyone in GC is now a viable suspect in Adam's murder. I have no problem with Bell killing off Adam. Some soap fans always want the bad guy to be redeemed, but most of them should die. David Kimble ended up the trash compactor and that was a good decision.

[Adam]

I agree. I don't see any room for redemption with this guy. I draw the line and burning fetuses in a fireplace. Like that is just vile.... Megan McTavish vile.

[DaytimeFan]

Oh Adam has to die, there's just no other way to go. Seriously.

Question: Did Diane do anything when she was on? Did MAB manage to assassinate her character too?

[Juliajms]

No, Diane didn't do much at all. She was pretty much there to freak Patty out by her mere presence. I wish they would bring Diane back for a longer story.

[DeeeDee]

And added to Skye being murdered, dismembered & buried under a horse stall?

Maria is sick.

[MoTheGreat]

Do you really want Diane back under these people?

[DaytimeFan]

Good, I'm glad she didn't do anything and I'm glad she's gone.

I love the character and don't want her being mangled by MAB and her flunky hacks Hamner and Hogan.

[Juliajms]

You make a good point.

I think Jill was looking especially good this week and Stephen Nicholas is doing a good job of showing that underneath it all it hurt Tucker to think that Katherine betrayed him. I'm glad Lauren and Paul are getting some screen time.
