Y&R Discussion for the week of April 19th

Devon does need a story and relationships outside the Winters family. Maria Hell & Co toyed with his daddy story which went nowhere. It is a shame all his white male counterparts get story after story, love interest after love interest, etc and Devon gets nothing of the sort. I lay blame at TIIC, they simply do not care for Devon AT ALL. Only keep him around for tending to tragic Lily.

Because the audience MAGICALLY gets totally involved in ANY White characters or pairings. Even ones that rarely if ever interact.

White characters share one or two scenes & immediately there are vids & websites ALL. ABOUT. THEM.

It's more then that. An audience isn't intertested in just " That Black Storyline". AKA who gives a [!@#$%^&*] AKA segregation AKA Half ass written AKA Backburner. That's why we always say black characters need to interact with other characters not just as their sidekick either.

That's the problem with unequal representation.

Minority characters SHOULD be able to interact with each other WITHOUT being lumped together the "segregation" brush. too.

Wow I haven't watched Y&R in so long that I didn't even know MMAdam was dead..Can't say I'll miss him..but that gif from earlier is hilarious especially Nikki's reaction.

I am shocked and appalled that ABC Superstar Eden Reigel's First Day was spent with people talking about Devon.

Oh please.

Bethel, Rikaart & Graziadei are boring & ridiculously overrated yet they get constant story.

They're hot (esp. Wilson & Greg).

How can you say he's a zzzzzz when they aren't giving him meaty or any storylines like they give his whiter counterparts. At this point I wish he was behind the chimpmunks scene just to give him something. He so much exciting then CKLily will ever been but they seem to write for the nonblack CKLily then the other black folks.

Yeah, there's nothing wrong with Devon that proper writing wouldn't fix. He's been written into a borner.

I like CKLily, as you call her, too.

Bryton had PLENTY chemistry with Leon, Frantz & Hendrickson but was it used? No.

Yet you know all about Daniel, Kevin, Billy, Chance, Cane & Adam?

I would trade every scene Billy or Chance is in for one with Devon. But Kevin, Cane and Adam are "hands-off." At least, all of this would be true if I still watched the show, which I do not anymore.

:lol: I wasn't a big fan when she was on AMC, so I'm pretty sure I'm not going to like her as Heather.

Eden is so awful. I can't believe she got any fans on AMC.

Time will tell, nut my prediction of her being a one trick pony I think will turn out to be true. She can play the tortured heroine to death....beyond that... I am not so sure.

Eden Riegel is a bad actress, annoying and sucks so far as Heather. Total miscast.

Eden is so awful. I can't believe she got any fans on AMC.

Exactly. Not gonna lie, i tuned in to see. It was horrid. I try not to judge after one day, but i also seen her on AMC and was not a fan.

Also, the look is just so different. Why not create a new role? Even a new ADA role and let Heather just leave town?

The Billy-nuHeather pick-up at the bar was cringeworthy. Miller at the end did a whole load of "WTF was that scene?" gurning.

Also Reigel and Hendricksen's voices are spookily alike. I was all "Gosh, there's a lot of Chloe today" and only twigged on towards the end when I stopped sorting out my laundry.

Vail was no uber thespian but I miss her curvy babeliciousness and no-nonsense attitude.
