Well, today's final scene was what I expect from Y&R... it was good... would have been alot better if Kahlil could actually ACT. They wisely focused more on Kristoff saying his prayer and the IV bag to make the scene more moving, as opposed to Kahlil and her non-performances. Ever since coming back from maternity leave, she's been SO MUCH WORSE. I don't see epople's problems with Ford. I think she's ok. She's trying to play Ashbash's version of the character... sullen, morose, inrospective.... that type of character is just not going to pop, people need to accept that.

IA its so stupid. I had to roll my eyes when she said she felt like she never belonged anywhere till now. Really Jill? Why does she all of a sudden feel as if she belongs somewhere? With Lauren that doesnt want to have much to do with her? Its not like there are any other Fenmores in town for her to bond with. Speaking of which does she now have any other blood relatives besides Lauren. I dont know much about the Fenmores but are there more?

SERIOUSLY.

Which TOTALLY undercut the speech she gave Liz on her deathbed about her being her Mother & even apologizing for forgetting about her when she thought Katherine was her mother (which she didn't).

Jill has AT LEAST 3 families that although they don't always like her consider her part of the family for better & for worse.

If Maria wanted to push the Jill is a Fenmore thing it would've been better for only child LAUREN to be the one doing the pushing to be close with her newfound sister & for JILL to be defensive ESPECIALLY when her adopted Mother just died & the wounds with her arch rival/other mother figure Katherine are still fresh.

But that would be too much like right.

She has two nephews (Scotty & Fen).

Other than that no.

Are they really trying to have Fluckers counsel Jill? After the way he treated her I will never like this character, ever. They had such contempt for Jill that they assumed viewers would love him if he treated her like a cheap piece of tail. Just let him go stare at Ashley before she goes running back to Victor.

      That's what happened with Hope Williams Brady on DAYS.  Started as rich princess, went to the police academy.   Became a cop.  Now consults for the I.S.A.

      I know Curlee/Demorest tried to give Roger a conscience in regard to raping Holly, and Zas is magnificent in those scenes with Alex. But he kinda ends up blaming Adam and the fact he (well, really the writers) ignores raping Rita and being responsible for her and Ed's child's death make it less than convincing.  I do think during 89-93 they were careful to not whitewash his past with Holly, but his occasional bouts of conscience always seemed to be overridden by his obsession/lust for her. The only purely good thing I can ever recall him doing is helping Maureen during the blackout, and even then, had she lived, he would've found a way to call that favor in. I've kinda resisted saying it, but it's kind of clear to me Long was determined to have her own version of Erica Kane, and God help us all, it ended up as Reva Shayne. Although at least Kim could act. (Sorry LaLucci fans) Honestly, I'm not even sure CBS soaps ever a character as larger than life as Reva.

      Regardless, I'd still like to see more episodes from the 80s...there is very little of Charlotte Greer, Kirklands and Greenberg's out there sadly.

      A black family having a white maid would be a good subversion of stereotypes. Also want to say that while the overall show has many flaws, the biggest one that's legitimately stifling is the lack of a rival family.

      I also do not like the bits I've seen with Delia during Labine's 83 return. I am glad when she came back for the last time in 1986, she allowed Delia to move on from Frank.

      Thanks for the well-detailed reply. I'm fairly early in my viewing, so I have some time before it goes nuts. Thanks a lot! @kalbir and @DRW50 thank you so much. I am just approaching 100 episodes, so I'm good for now.

      The Duprees as the main family isn't the problem, but the fact is that over 3/4 of the cast are Duprees.. so it limits coupling potential and also keeps the canvas too closed in. Too many female Duprees and no hetero, nor gay, male Duprees is also a problem.   I also agree with @DemetriKanethat the male characters are one note, and not very layered/interesting... outside of Bill, that is. To me, I would have focused on either Nicole's family and dynamics or Dani's family and dynamics instead of trying to introduce/develop both families at the same time.  Nicole's family is more developed and interesting with loads of storyline possiblities then Dani's family right now. And because MVJ and co decided to feature so many Duprees... we're less likely to be free of any outside characters like Ashley/Derek since they're the non-Dupree part of the canvas.

      I can not see Kat as a police officer and do not want that for her. Thats not her passion nor does she care about that stuff. The stuff with Eva and Leslie is specific to her life and wanting to protect her family. Her "detective" skills have more to do with her business background, which makes her very analytical and pay close attention to details. If this show had a corporation, she'd make a shrewed businesswoman and CEO I definitely dont want to see her sleep with her cousin's husband. That would be too much of a Hayley redux which ironically you dont want with the Sharon/Hayley theory

      I would make Jan, Ashley's mom, Anita and Vernon's maid. It would lock in to why Leslie would choose to befriend both her and Mona. It also gives Ashley a connection to the Duprees and explains how she befriended Naomi. I would have had Derek start the show as a cop to explain his connection to Jacob. Kat needs to realize that she is MADE to be a detective. Have her go through police training, making the appropriate comments about the uniform along the way. Have her prove she is so much more than a rich princess, even to herself. Then, when Jacob's partner is proven to be dirty, Kat is assigned as Jacob's rookie trainee. At the same time, Naomi does finally get a case she can follow through on. Her client is a person that Jacob arrested. This puts them at odds because Jacob knows this person did it, as does Kat, but Naomi only sees the extenuating circumstances and believes he deserves a lighter sentence and a second chance. THAT is when Jacob will turn to Kat in frustration and she will lose her virginity to him.
