Y&R Week of August 30th

[bellcurve]

Wow. How sad was it that I didn't even notice their absences until you guys just mentioned it? .

One barrier at a time Carl, you're getting a little too progressive there, can't have those coloreds mixing with the whites, let alone white women mixing with the black women. No, no, no they're better off making sandwiches with nuMalcolm.

Is that the STD that crawled up out of Phyllis' vagina? Finally we have a reason for why she's been extra b-tchy lately. Dunpster sex is a no no

[DeeeDee]

And except for Sofia the other three (Liv, Roxy & CKLily) could've EASILY been worked into the episode.

LOLOL

I heard some defenses of the episode that they could not have been in because there was no reason, or Olivia had not had a story in years, Roxanne had no ties -- even that defense basically says that blacks have no place in today's GC.

[DeeeDee]

The idea for today's Y&R episode was female rivalries.

Y&R could've EASILY had CKLily & Roxy there to support Mackenzie against Chloe.

And Liv could've been there to support Ashley & Abby not to mention NOT be a fan of Giggly Heffa.

But of course Carl that would mean Y&R actually caring about & utilizing their minority cast which Hogan/Rauch abhor.

[DRW50]

It just shows the vicious circle, one that Rauch is quite good at perpetuating on his shows -- black characters have less and less of a role, so people become used to seeing less and less of them.

[Soaplovers]

Sofia totally could have fit in today's episode. She's a newbie in town, works for Tucker's company that owns Jabot (which is opening the spa) and goes to the spa to check it out. Then we could see her calling Malcolm asking if he's sure he really wants to settle down in Genoa City after witnessing all the goingons.

[DeeeDee]

That works too!

It's just so ridiculous like Rafe not having a life unless it involves being a lawyer or Adam.

Exactly.

[Cheap21]

LMAO! Good one

[lovely_m]

I guess they decided to rip off horror movies too.

Someone needs to put Billy's rinky dink magazine to good use and write an expose on Phyllis or a blog post entitles "THE ultimate homewrecker of Genoa City".

Vicky and Billy spoiler.....

[alphanguy74]

I'm waiting for all the posts filled with disgust and righteous outrage at the double entendre lines referring to Billy's big penis But seriously, Jana gets a job at a preschool when she's been in prison? Really?

[lovely_m]

If they have to keep saying Billy's penis is huge, it must not be.
