Members juniorz1 Posted August 14, 2010 Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 I'm just going to copy & paste the above post every weekday & put it in this thread. Today's episode has been a waste for over a year now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted August 14, 2010 Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 If only they had gone with the natural family drama that would have come from Hope's son showing up with a business degree from Harvard and claiming his place at the table (with Hope at his side), instead of all the psycho garbage they decided to feed us. It could have played out for years, especially with Sharon in the mix and the Hope/Nikki fighting that would have ensued . I'm never going to get over the way they completely wasted the Victor Jr. character. It's not as bad as what they did to Phillip or what they are doing with Chance and Nina's stolen baby (which never should have been resolved, imo), but it's pretty damn pitiful.

Members DeeeDee Posted August 14, 2010 Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 Like Phillip back from the dead Hope/Adam returning would & should have DECADES of story but as usual Maria blew it. Now Hope is dead, Adam is being "redeemed" at the expense of everyone else on the canvas & Maria's moved onto her next victim . Amen. As is the soap press complete lack of criticizing Y&R for killing vets & legacy characters every 6 months as ratings stunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted August 14, 2010 Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 the point of no return came when he killed Ashley's baby and proceeded to let her think she was still pregnant. I thought he was still viable as a character up until that moment. MAB could have saved him instead of digging the hole even deeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted August 14, 2010 Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 Nobody should be surprised though. Look at the way she killed Brad & Colleen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted August 14, 2010 Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 yeah the stuff with Jack/Victor and the diary was bad but far from irredeemable. I liked Adam and wanted him out of jail. In hindisght, I wish she had left him there to rot. At least then there was a chance that the next head writer could do him justice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lovely_m Posted August 14, 2010 Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 The only death she was criticized for was Colleen (rightfully so) and even read some criticisms about killing John. Unfortunately Maria got a free pass on killing Brad because this was during the time when she "brought Y&R back to the Bill Bell days" and LML did that man no favors.

Members juniorz1 Posted August 14, 2010 Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 Or TPTB giving her an impossible character to play, one who's original portrayer is considered "Daytime Royalty" among many Y&R fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lovely_m Posted August 14, 2010 Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 I was trying to say that the fans would be accused of being unreasonable by the soap press not that they would actually be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 14, 2010 Author Members Share Posted August 14, 2010 Wasn't Branco trying to say this role was some of the best work Eden's ever had? I think this will be one of those CLAP LOUDER! things, the same that you get a lot with Billy/Victoria, although they have more fans than this Heather does.

Members soapfan770 Posted August 15, 2010 Members Share Posted August 15, 2010 Those pre-MAB flashbacks were great, most watchable 30 seconds of the show in months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juniorz1 Posted August 15, 2010 Members Share Posted August 15, 2010 Missed it on Friday. Were they also pre-Latham & pre-Smith? Because those were the showkillers that paved the way for MAB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
