Members BadZoe Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Why are they acting like it is a surprise that a 103 year old man might croak? They did far less ballyhooing about Chance even though most of them are supposed to think he's dead and those who do know are supposed to act like he is. Maura should have been a new character. Jack's a slut, she could have just popped up with his previously unknown spawn. At least then the ages wouldn't be so messed up like they are with Abby and Kyle.

Members edgeofnik Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Thank god that horse AD is not in the role. Sorry, but she never did anything for me in the role during the 90s. In the 80s, sure, but she just did not click with me during the sperm run. SW was fine in the role, but looking back, nothing special and it was a mess with the fire and how convoluted the story became and no resolution. Hopefully, MW brings a fresh view on the role. Sometimes, I forget just how young MW is -- probably because she has five children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeeeDee Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Seriously. They do the same thing with Katherine & Grambo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Haha glad I'm not the only who noticed that an extremely old man in the hospital from a heart attack isn't really all that surprising...I guess Katherine's wigs keep her young? I will say I really enjoyed EB's performance in the scene with Victoria at the club. It was one of those rare times in recent years where he actually isn't playing the arrogant ass that always win and honestly looked like a father desperately wanting to reconnect with his favorite child...Dare I say even AH was awake? As I'm more familiar with the Diane character's history and not the actresses to play it, I thought Maura did very well and I could already see some chemistry there...If someone could please slap Phyliss soon that'd be great.

Members Dr Neil Curtis Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 WONDERFUL JOB MAURA WEST!!!! Can't wait to see more. I loved Alex Donnelly in the role but love Maura already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LondonScribe Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Slight derivation, but did anyone notice a slight tweak in the credits on Monday's episode? I may be going mad but I don't belive Ashley was in those credits before. Does anyone remember who was in her place before? Again, I could have that wrong... As for the show itself, it has been largely a chore to watch this year but it has not been that bad the last couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Even moreso ever since that "Woman Scorned" blogo-sope the camera is often chanelling in THE STAFFORD © as if she were the savior herself. I'm beyond over that useless character and Stafford's tics: I now hate her more than Cane, even if that's just because Monsieur Goddard got backburner-helled with SaintLily. Now if that isn't worth another Emmy!???? HAAAAATE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 The Stafford's Giggly Heffa and Laura Wright's Carly are pretty much my two most hated characters of all time. I can just about understand why a grumpy misogynist like Bob Guza writes his central female character in such a way; what I don't understand as how a female HW and EP like MAB thinks this is just the kind of "heroine" that Y&R's viewers root for. And I'm not just saying this because Diane is coming up against Heffa but next to AULL THOSE MENNERIZIMZ, Maura West came across beautifully, as this purring little cat. Perfect for the feline Diane. Heffa just looked like an idiot next to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted October 12, 2010 Administrator Share Posted October 12, 2010 Maura West was good today! I'm already loving her as Diane. I agree that those pictures didn't do her justice. I'm also enjoying this Meggie story (though I too don't understand how Nikki doesn't know there's alcohol in her drink). But Sean Young is great.

Members BadZoe Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Maura is a great actress but I can't help but think that Colleen Zenk Pinter would have been more suited to the role of 60 year old Diane Jenkins. I love Drunk Nikki, keep her around this time. Just like with Amber, I find Deascum fits in better on the Y&R than on the B&B. Probably because characters aren't being sacrificed in the same way to prop their storylines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 You mean actually write for an older woman?? How pathetic was it to shoehorn Chompers into those hospital scenes. At least Victoria's hair looked nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Seriously...why is all this vitriol aimed at Diane? Phyllis and Jack I get. And Victor detests anyone who doesn't cow to his will, which I gather happened in their divorce. But even GhostJohn (who seems very tan for the afterlife) seemed downright hostile. I've seen convicted axe murderers get warmer receptions. And did Diane know Victor wasn't Kyle's father? I thought the Great Sperm Switcheroo was a surprise even to her.
