October 16, 201015 yr Member Quote Em Up, Round 2 I saw Diane and Ashley's scenes yesterday, and I just had to roll my eyes at how they glossed over spermgate and had Diane state Kyle was 11, while Abby is now played by a 30 year old... Whether they want to admit it or not, spermgate is a huge part of Diane and Ashley's history, and acting as if it never happened is really talking down to the audience. Then again, you can't expect anything better out of the people running this show. Oh GOD I just Know, Know, KNOWWW!!! What makes it all the more sad is I think I would have LOVED GigglyKyle forming a friendship with Darcy Rose Byrne's "I OWN JABOT!" Abby ala Ciara/Theo on DAYS. Can you just imagine these two children discovering how their mothers' really brought them into this world together? It really could have been powerhouse storytelling. And it's all been sacrificed for Hayley friggin Erin (not really Rylan's fault, since Erin was step 1). And with all the suspending of disbelief we had to do for Rylan anyway, I would have swallowed a de-aging for the sake of this story, especially since they had to have known that Ms. West was coming on board at that point. They are friends but they will never get any scenes now that Lauren is Giggly Heffa's instafriend. I prefer to call them "friends, once-removed." The Adam/Phyllis scenes are laugh out loud hilarious - the best bits of Y&R so far this week. I'm starting to wonder if Phadam might work after all, if the writers ever went there, or Phyllis and Adam at least had a one-night stand. Imagine the fun Muhney and Michelle would have with all that. ***Pictures the fun...........and proceeds to throw up in my mouth a little.*** [Katherine "Gram" Chancellor]Dear God in Heaven![/Katherine "Gram" Chancellor] NO! And again, there was nothing funny about those scenes. They were super-duper-in-the-pooper-forced. I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm finally not minding Muhney in the role of Adam..he finally stopped "acting" and is just letting the character happen and it works soooo much better. +1 Whoever said that Case & Laura Stone have helped this along- AB-SO-LUTE-LY!!! Ashley, Lilly, Kay and Emily are examples of class. 1 out of 4 ain't bad. Lily & Kay are examples of asleep, in comparison to their former selves. Emily is an example of comatose. So is JT dead?...Was it time already for another death? Oh Please GOD NO!! Gotta agree. Jack AND Phyllis are just so revolting lately. Lately? Plus Diane fighting with Ashley is SO much more fun than her lame "feud" with Giggly Heffa. Totally. Diane & Ashley are two cats- one Siamese and one Persian. Diane & THE Sommers are like two other cats- a lioness and a hyena. Can ya guess which is which? I really miss Alistair and Ana. There is a great idea for Keemo's return. Grayson McCouch will play the part, Keemo now calls himself Jonathan Abbott and he is a club owner. Jonathan will be paired with Sharon, Phyllis and Diane. Gloria should get an evil twin sister. Let's call her Brandi. Deborah Shelton would make a great nu-Esther for a Chloe/Ronan/Esther triangle. Phillip fakes his death again because he can't tell his family that he plans to undergo gender reassignment surgery. A few months later Noelle Beck joins cast as a mysterious lady with a connection to Jill, Katherine and Nina. Sabrina is alive! And she has a twin! On a more serious note... :lol: Thank GOD for that last line because you had me scared. Let me try. [y&r_fan]Y&R should bring back Tammin Sursock as Colleen's Australian lookalike, who Cane once loved & is the cause of the Moose People coming after him. It will make it harder for like, the best Lily evs, Christel Khalil, to not let Cain be with her, because she convinces herself her best friend Colleen is BACK! Finally, a frontburner storyline worthy of two powerhouse actreesses! [/y&r_fan] He's alive. Cane rescues him by giving him CPR and taking him to the hospital. The preview that was shown at the end of today's Canadian/ U.S.'s Monday episode has Victoria calling Nikki (who's drinking) to pick up Reed from Kay's. So there may be death after all. Hopefully Nikki's not dumb enough to drive drunk. Thank GOD! And PLEASE, as a farewell gift, can we get Thad & Goddard shirtless & wet whilst doing this? Please and thank you!

October 16, 201015 yr Member It was so wrong seeing Abby and Kyle in the same room and not being the same age. One acid trip was enough. If it weren't for Cane's lies he and Lily wouldn't have had to go to the cabin and JT wouldn't have had to go get them. It's Cane's fault that JT got electrocuted. But more importantly, it's also Cane's fault that the little prick is alive. WHY would you save him Cane? WHY!?
October 16, 201015 yr Member JT's shock was LAME but glad he is done. There are too many damn actors on the show. DeeDee...what did you mean by Lilly having a 'preference'? Is she in the closet or something? I did stop watching for a bit
October 16, 201015 yr Member But more importantly, it's also Cane's fault that the little prick is alive. WHY would you save him Cane? WHY!? Cane has to do something useful every...3 years or so.
October 16, 201015 yr Member Cane has to do something useful every...3 years or so. Unfortunately dying hasn't been a priority. Yet.
October 16, 201015 yr Member Unfortunately dying hasn't been a priority. Yet. What was that about Lilly having a 'preference'? That is usually a remark reserved for gays.
October 16, 201015 yr Member ^^^they may be referencing the fact Lily's boyfriends/lovers have all been white. Opinions of Stephen Nichols/Tucker? I don't know why...but I can't see Diane and Brad having any chemistry. But I can see Maura and DD's "DollarBill" bein' smokin' hot. Odd. Edited October 16, 201015 yr by P.J.
October 16, 201015 yr Member I'm guessing that it's the fact that Lily clearly prefers white men. Unless Shemar Moore is playing the part.
October 16, 201015 yr Member What was that about Lilly having a 'preference'? That is usually a remark reserved for gays. ^^^they may be referencing the fact Lily's boyfriends/lovers have all been white. Or, they may be referencing the fact that Lily has a penis. I'm just putting it out there.
October 16, 201015 yr Member ^^^they may be referencing the fact Lily's boyfriends/lovers have all been white. Opinions of Stephen Nichols/Tucker? I don't know why...but I can't see Diane and Brad having any chemistry. But I can see Maura and DD's "DollarBill" bein' smokin' hot. Odd. I like him. I think Tucker and Diane had chemistry, but I think Diane has chemistry with just about every guy she's shared scenes with. They could go so many different ways with her, which is one reason I'm not sorry the character has been de-aged. Sure, I'd rather have AD in this role and have MW play Nikki's long lost daughter, but as Y&R's recent recasts go, this one is a winner, imo. Unfortunately dying hasn't been a priority. Yet. Please. You know Cane is nearly as safe as Victor. The Lake has no chance.
October 16, 201015 yr Member Maura is just lucky she didn't have to do that "no means yes" sex scene with Tucker.
October 16, 201015 yr Member Opinions of Stephen Nichols/Tucker? Still hate the role and don't think that he's working at all. Tucker still feels very out-of-place. I like his chemistry with Eileen Davidson but apart from that I also dislike most acting choices of Nichols on Y&R. This role seems like a mix of Stephan Cassadine and Patch, a bad mix. Dare I say that this dude who first played Tucker - as the caricature the writing delivered him - suited the role better!?
October 16, 201015 yr Member Please. You know Cane is nearly as safe as Victor. The Lake has no chance. There's still Hope! :lol: :lol:
October 16, 201015 yr Member Dare I say that this dude who first played Tucker [...] suited the role better!? On the one hand, I agree with you; William Russ was better at being Tucker than SN. However, I also tend to think Russ - and the character of Tucker, really - would have made a much better addition to AMC. In fact, if "Rusty," as he's called, were still on Y&R? I'd wonder whether we could trade him for Michael Nouri, who currently plays Caleb McGraw Cooney.
October 16, 201015 yr Member This is a week old but it's hilarious for the most part... Currently we have the Cattle Rustler mystery. Who are they? Why do they hate Cane? What was Cane doing when he lived in Oz anyway? What was up with the mystery steaks? They smelled funny – were they poisoned? If they are “warning” or “threatening” Cane, what do they want him to do? Or not do? How is Phillip involved? Whose bright idea was it to have Cane take Lily and the babeez to a remote “cottage” alone? We have the Dirty Cops mystery. Why did Chance have to go into Witness Protection? Shouldn’t Ronan, Christine, Paul and Chloe also be in danger? They know just as much as Chance does. Why were they after Chance a year ago, before he knew anything at all? Why were they after Heather? And now they’re not? Why couldn’t they have killed Heather? And why is it that some cops were selling drugs to inmates of a local city jail and it’s a big enough case to bring in a prosecutor from Washington, DC and the FBI? How can Paul, a private investigator, get JT hired onto the GC police force? We have the evil Meggie mystery? What’s her game? Does she want to marry a billionaire? How does she know Murphy? Where does he really go on all his fishing trips? How many times has she packed a bag and started to leave the Newman Ranch? How does Skye know her? Where does she buy that odorless, tasteless vodka she’s been feeding Nikki? How could a 70 year old man with a heart transplant parachute out of a plane at night in a foreign country and conveniently land at her dive? We have the (aging) mystery of who killed Richard Hightower? Was it Patti? Was it Adam? Was it Sheila? Was it Daisy? What the hell was Daisy and Ryder’s deal anyway? Who blew up the GCAC? How in the world did they rebuild it so fast and make it look exactly like it did before, down to the dusty glass shelves, the tacky 80′s decor, and the “suites” that are smaller than my last room at La Quinta? And my favorite current mystery: How does an assistant DA who has never won a case get appointed DA? Especially after being personally involved in half the current questionable cases? http://yrcritic.com/
