I never idealized Michael Muhney, who I've never cared for. What I had a problem with was pretending Chris Engen's homophobia was in any way acceptable just because the PTB at Y&R are also incompetent hacks. In that case, the enemy of my enemy is not my friend.

How is he sitting on the back of the bus? :unsure: MM left Y&R for a freaking audition and they took him back. He said he wasn't interested in working on a soap again when he thought he was going to do better and they still took him back. If by sitting on the back of the bus you mean some people on the soap boards don't like him, well, I'm guessing MM will laugh at that while he collects his paycheck.

And what exactly do you love about it? I want a detailed answer. :D Toups is right, auditioning is what actors do and if your (money grubbing) agent isn't hustling and sending you out for stuff you could potentially book, he's not doing his job... whether we agree or not with how "right" MM or whoever else is for a particular role. Tobey Maguire wasn't exactly everyone's idea of Spiderman. Again, MM's mistake was fronting like he had it in the bag. That, and related online douchery.

That's news to me and I read this board pretty regularly. Sure, lots of people knew Adam wasn't dead. With maria's history that was obvious. I didn't see anyone speculate that MM was still on contract. In fact, I recall a lot of people celebrating his departure.

What makes you think that's going to happen any time soon? I don't see any end of the horror in sight. And yes, I'm a MM fan, but that doesn't mean I think Adam belongs on Y&R at this point. This is no longer the Y&R where the bad guy goes away after they are shown to be insane sociopaths.

I fully believe that Adam is going to be the Y&R version of EJ. Some poor woman is going to end up being uncontrollably drawn to him (Heather is my guess, although I'm not ruling out Sharon) no matter how many people he kills or hurts because we women folk are just incapable of controlling our girl parts. :rolleyes: Then Adam will go around committing outlandish crimes for years to come because law enforcement is just that incapable and Adam is just that smart.

    • I’ve been enjoying the pace the show has taken recently. Things don’t languish as long as they have and if they are drawing something out, like Gio’s adoption, it’s hasn’t been as excruciating. Also, my nosey nature would appreciate less interaction with posters I have on ignore so I don’t have to click on “options”.

    • Okay...I'm just going to call it. Ambyr Michelle is the breakout star of this show with the young set hands down! There is no character like Eva that pulls my heart strings, and she's playing it perfectly. If Eva and Leslie are on, it's a good episode! If written properly, Eva and Kat's rivalry is one that could go on for YEARS. Of course, it's fun to speculate about who is really whom, but I could see them developing as frenemies after some time. They really need a guy to tussle over to amp it up. Tomas is pretty, but the actor has got to loosen up some in his scenes, I think. He is improving though. It would be good to introduce a new young man in that story for a foursome.  Martin and Smitty finally feel like a real couple to me, too. Hopefully, they locked them into four year contracts.
    • I'll be that guy and say I don't think TMG is a fool. This is a popular contract role on a year-round soap opera for a woman of a certain age (to say nothing of a woman of color). If I'm her I pull a Kimberlin Brown and ride this til the wheels fall off.
    • Tbf it's not unusual for a family when they are dealing with some bad news that changes a life to use song to give out hope.Especially black families. I personally had to deal with that very thing this weekend. Partly off putting, but at the same time, I did get the point and it gave me a bit of hope in the moment.      MM is definitely acting. But Smitty is just so passive. It could turn into quiet strength at some point, but for now...passive IMO. 
    • Am I remembering correctly that the Madison's lived in a Spanish revival-style house? I have a vague recollection of the fireplace looking especially Spanish in style. It is unusual that Montecello had so many architectural styles.  Obviously, that might occur IRL.  But, look at other east coast soaps and there is a definitive style that is throughout (because it was styled by a set decorator) regardless of the income of the occupants.
    • @kalbir MSW was a powerhouse for CBS. Angela Lansbury was a superb actress. In 1985, TV viewers were tiring of the primetime soaps and the like. People wanted storytelling and MSW was great at that and had great guest stars. Storytelling -- an amazing and novel concept. CBS Daytime by 1985 was beating ABC so CBS was on the upswing.
    • I'd say just the opposite - conflict means they will find out and then be at odds. For the limited amount of time people on this show have conflict (if they aren't named Nina or Ric, I guess).
    • Totes mcgoats (aka I agree). But, now the character needs to move forward.  Clyde's exit was 12/11/24.  It is May.  She and Chad have been on one date. I don't think they've slept together. And she was only planning on sticking around for a year.
    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL And I also agree with those that thought Dana/Leslie's scenes with the Dupree's didn't feel right since Eva is not a Dupree....unless she is.  But as of right now, she's not. 
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
