Lol at "Grandma Boring". Marissa is dull and awful. I was glad JR told her he was going to fight her on getting primary custody of AJ.

Also thought Kendall was awful towards the end of today's show with Madison. With her getting mad at Madison for being honest about what Greenlee said. Just because Kendall is willing to sacrifice her marriage, family and happiness for Rylee doesn't mean that Madison should have to sacrifice her happiness for them as well.

Seeing that you are a CW fan, I guess you missed how Greg tanked on 90210 last season? Lori Loughlin was his co-star and he literally tanked. It's ok, I mean he's eye candy but strong actor? :lol:

Meanwhile Jacob Young has been recieving praises and is up for a daytime emmy in 2011. Ok sure recast someone who's 31 in thier prime and making an impact on this show w/ multiple SLs.

1. Making people cheer for insignificant characters, i.e. (Scott, Marissa)

2. Making MCE's character stand out and be rootable

3. Creating a potential supercouple

4. Making Micheal Nouri have material that makes his character stand out

5. Making the Chandlers family branch stand out as the family on AMC to watch ... does anyone recognize the Kanes anymore? the Martins? the Hubbards? (although they are ok), the

Cortlandts/Cooneys? The Chandlers run this show, all started b/c JR embraced his inner badboy and ditched JR Martin

6. Making newbies rootable and interesting, ppl actually care about what Asher will do, JR not liking Damon is making ppl like Damon too

7. AJ isn't just a kid floating around, the link to AJ will always be JR, he's part of a legacy now

8. Tad actually has material ppl care about

9. Krystal has a SL worth mentioning

10. Even Erica is going to benefit from JR

So, yeh I doubt JR or JY is a problem. :lol: Greg Vaughn that's as hilarious as a thing as I ever heard.

Wait. I just need to get this straight. Are you attributing ALL of the above to Jacob Young?!! Because if so then....

Uhhhh...no.

JY is doing very good work now and I give him all props for that but that's after years of being one of the weaker links on this show so let's dial back the worship. As for the character of JR, he could be replaced by Scott without even a break in stride.

I'm saying he's not a problem, infact him and MCE have added punch to this show. But notice when JR's SL kicked in that's when all the pieces started falling into place. MCE's Annie character was the start of it, JY's JR is now becoming a must watch character.

He was a weak link b/c back in the day they didn't write for this character he was a prop device for the Careys, especially Babe and Jamie. Not even close, no one cares about Scott, you care about Scott toilet tissue before you actually care about Scott. :lol:

Okay first off, JY is awful? according to who exactly, I understand you hate his character but the actor being awful c'mon are we watching the same actor.

I don't see what's the problem with Emma and Annie trying to repair their relationship, if Annie didn't try you would bash her for that so just shut up. (no offense)

Sorry, but I disagree. He was a weak link because HE was a WEAK LINK. He was a barely conscious actor with a gut whose performances were so subpar that he was one of the highest picks in the "Who going to rehab next" lottery. He benefited greatly from playing a "core" character. Babe, Jamie and JR all sucked equally and the only thing that sets JR apart from the other two is that he's still on screen.

And there's nothing intrinsically different about Scott and JR. One's good, one's bad but it's not like with Adam and Stuart where the differences between them were firmly staked out. There's no clear devil and angel. They both kind of take turn being douchebags, poseurs and pussies.

    • They didn't need to have some slutty gay dude as their representation. Just a 'normal' guy getting involved with another guy or two (or three). Just like the straight characters. Thinking about it, they missed the boat by not having a few other single charcters at the beginning. Maybe Naomi or Ashley could be shown meeting Derek/Jacob and  we could follow their romance. Too many characters were coupled up at the start. As a tattoo hater I was surprised to see Tomas so inked. Don't find it attractive or sexy. I'm surprised an actor would do that as it's definitely a statement and may not be appropriate for some roles. Suppose they can cover if necessary. I didn't buy Kat being all girly and then paying off Darius to get into Eva's room. Way too cliche. She should have just come along when the housekeeping was leaving and breezed in saying it was her room. And her smug looks in the hotel room and 'Now I've got you!!' talks to herself at Orphey Gene's...no.

    • I thought it got stale before Jocks death lol. His death picked things back up for me.
    • 1976 Pt 5 Tony is summoned to the reading of the will in the Llanfair library,as he’s a principal in the will. He tells Joe there’s not a chance of coming to terms with Dorian, as he is sure she brought about Victor’s death by torturing him emotionally when he was her helpless prisoner after his stroke. Ironically, Chapin hand delivers to Viki a letter her father wrote before his stroke, praising Dorian and asking Viki to befriend and support his widow when he was no longer there. Viki feels a responsibility to her father’s wishes and vows to try with Dorian. Victor’s will leaves the expected amounts to members of his family and staff, with the lion’s share of his stock and property going to Dorian. Victor’s will explains that his son Tony expressed the desire that he not be “bought from the grave,” and, in keeping with his son’s wishes, the only bequest to him is the knowledge of his father’s love and respect. Tony is deeply moved. Dorian’s first attempt to use her new power is the recommendation of Peter as head of the Merideth Lord Wolek hospital wing, claiming that naming Larry would be virtual nepotism. Peter, who has devoted considerable time and effort to helping Jenny get over Tim’s death with gentle, affectionate support, is happy at this suggestion, but Jenny points out Dorian is merely using him to hurt Larry. Viki disregards Dorian’s ingenuous assurances that she’s not trying to wield her new power but is merely putting Peter up for consideration for a future opportunity, if not this one, and tells her she won’t be able to fulfill her father’s desire that they be friends unless Dorian stops interfering. Larry, fully understanding Dorian’s personal motives, warns her he’s going to fight for the appointment no matter what. Realizing that she has made a tactical error, Dorian announces that she won’t even attend the board meeting but will give her proxy to Jim. She admits to Matt McAllister, still her confidant, that this was humiliating, but it was a necessary protective tactic. Dorian manages to win her next round at Joe’s office when, after he praises her decision to yield on appointing Peter, she expresses concern for Viki “at a time like this.” Joe, of course, jumps on her words, and Dorian, pretending great distress at having mentioned something she shouldn’t have, is “forced” to explain that she knew about the congenital heart condition Megan had and that any child of Joe’s is likely to inherit it. She overheard the doctors discussing it at the time of the accident, she continues, and naturally assumed that Joe already knew.  Joe arranges a meeting at home with Viki and asks her how she could live a lie like this; how she could go through their lives as if everything were fine while every moment was a lie. He is further upset when, in trying to explain that it was out of her love for him that she kept the truth from him, she mentions that Jim and Larry also know but Cathy still hasn’t been told. Viki tells Joe that Dorian deliberately told him this way to hurt their marriage, and she is very upset when he starts toward the door, pleading that they have always talked things out in the past. Joe coolly points out that she didn’t do that when she learned about Megan and continues out the door.  A tearful Viki is shaken and when Joe later returns, having spent several hours in a bar drinking only soft drinks,she breaks down, crying that she was convinced he’d left her. Joe assures her they can get through this despite everything, because their relation is based on love and mutual respect. 
    • If you think about it, DALLAS and DYNASTY grew stale right about the same time, even if the ratings were slow to reflect that.  FC and KL, on the other hand, tried to stay fresh, but KL was way more successful at it, I think, than FC.  (That [!@#$%^&*] with The Thirteen does not hold up well, lol).
