Y&R: Episodes discussion, week of October 4

[lovely_m]

I feel sorry for Jana too. For all this talk about their deep connection Kevin bailed pretty quickly. He and everyone around him treated her as if she was the same person he married and her brain damage never happened. His line about the divorce being the best thing that every happened to him was harsh.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

I don't even know why Jana's lasted more than 2 years on this show...

[lovely_m]

She may not be long for the show. An article in SOD mentions that there may be more cast cuttings.

[DRW50]

Why is Kevin even on the show now?

[DeeeDee]

+1.

[dm.]

Well, they're preparing her for the going-out-as-crazy routine, so it isn't a surprise, really.

I flove Kevin and the rest of his misfit family. They've had to work (or steal) for everything they have and we not born witrh GC silver spoons in mouth. They are the soap's 'poor family' and Kevin has had to overcome a lot of bad situations. He is the 'geek' of the show and I like the manner in which they use his self-esteem as a story device.

I'd sooner see TPTB cut Daniel, JT, Devon, Ronan or Cane before Kevin.

Usually not a big fan of MTS but Meggie/Nikki is pure gold. I'm kinda rooting for Meggie, though.

And beyotch looks good on this week's SOD, too.

[Antoyne]

Do they just use the same picture of Braeden every cover or is that the only face the man makes?

[MarkH]

+1

[Cheap21]

the only ones I will agree with are Ronan and Cane. Kevin sucks and needs to go. I prefer those other characters over him anyday

[classicmoment]

Yeah but instead of incorporating them they ran them into the ground. I wouldn't mind seeing none of them again, cept maybe Michael. I don't enjoy the stories because it is so overdone

[DeeeDee]

The saddest thing is Gloria, Jeff & Chipmunk get ANOTHER story while Michael/Lauren get NOTHING.

[DRW50]

Why should we care about Kevin's self-esteem when every story is about how awesome he is and trashes other people to make him look better? The show made him a hero for committing a string of armed robberies. When you are that loved, you are not an underdog or a poor little boy anymore.

[BadZoe]

I hate how these moron writers have disregarded the history that Abby and Kyle were conceived in the same storyline.
