Y&R: Old Articles

How could we forget. As mentioned here at the time, rhyming "Jack Abbott" and "black rabbit" was passed off as the height of wit. I also remember the lengthy and intense shaming campaign that anyone who didn't think MAB was the savior of Y&R ended up going through. Remember when seeing the Adam story for what it was (cheap baiting trash) meant that you couldn't accept complex gay villains or were homophobic?

Of course the one 2004 episode with Joan Van Ark is blocked in the US! I've been wanting to see her old stuff as Gloria but it's hard to come by. I'm currently continuing my watch with the March 1990 episodes. I had been wondering where Danny went (especially with all of Cricket's drama) and he's randomly popped up. It's like Michael Damian has grown up a lot in a year. Probably just the way he's styled. You even see Cricket turning into more of an adult and the Christine I remember. I hated having to watch her rape story, but post-rape the character has been written as stronger and smarter. She was hardly watchable before. I wish they were able to have her grow up without a rape story, but I know they were popular at the time.

 

The Marge story is great! I know it was said to last too long, but I don't mind it. Of course many episodes are missing, but they've involved so many characters that it makes sense to stretch it out. Having Esther with her has helped a lot. If she was by herself with the captors it probably would drag on more. Jeanne Cooper has also done a great job differentiating the two roles. The scenes where Marge and Katherine met you could clearly tell who is who, but even in scenes with Marge impersonating Katherine she gives you subtle differences that let you know it isn't her. Certain words she'll say or ways she'll react that simply aren't Katherine. It amazes me she took so long to get an Emmy. She's truly fabulous. No way a wonder of her age would get the type of frontburner story she did on today's Y&R.

 

I'm not far from Dru's arrival which I can't wait for. By the time I started watching she was already reformed. I've never seen her humble beginnings.

    • That's what I've liked about this show. I don't have anyone that I hate or dislike on this show. I would have to reach for the threesome husband if I had to choose someone and that's because he can't act. And even he improved in his last appearance. 
    • Facebook is loaded with the "Veronica" requests.
    • I've seen it posted elsewhere people saying "Veronica" should be on this show. My response is always going to be hell no.  You're definitely right about these characters catching on with the audience. Everyone has their favorite. I was pleasantly surprised people have some for Doug. 
    • If the show was interested in tying in one of the three prime time specials in the 90s, the smarter choice probably would have been Night Sins from 1993. Night Sins was the ushering in of Titan Publishing, the first mentions of Kate Roberts coming in to run it, plus it had involved Jack retyping a manuscript he had found in the new house he and Jen moved into... which ended up being a thinly veiled story written by Kate about her dalliance with Bill Horton that produced Lucas. However, I doubt the writers were even thinking about the prime time episodes when deciding to name the manuscript One Stormy Night.  I also don't see Stephanie being the one that would be writing it.  The current actress playing Stephanie seems to play a more passive version of Stephanie vs the previous takes by Shayna and Shelley..imho. Javi is cute... much too good for Leo.  He can do so much better.
    • I might've gone after someone like Jed Allan, or even Donald May. Though they're very different.
    • Same.   Looking forward to seeing what I missed later. And God bless him for coming back!!! I was so happy to see him again! But...will he be for Dani...or Nicole? Hmm
    • Question for all: Who would have made a good Mike recast after Stewart departed?
    • I think they did. Again, it is not an either/or proposition for most of the audience so far. Most don't feel the need to stan one or reject the other.
    • KKL on Bold Live on May 1st. Details here  
    • I do wonder if the show realized that fans would take to Silk Press and Eva as much as we have?    To me, I think the core four was mostly used to get eyes on the show since all four were familiar performers in both daytime and primetime.   Of the four, I think Nicole is used most effectively where it doesn't look as though she's hogging airtime.  She works as a lead and as a talk to. Anita has been the most under utilized of the four, but I do have a feeling that might be changing once the Ted/Nicole/Eva/Silk Press Story goes back to support status. Of the four, I think Dani has been over-used.. but I do still see potential for the character.  I know some people think she's the modern day Erica Kane, but I don't see that.  Erica was a Have Not that became a Have while Dani is a Have by birth and has done nothing to have earned being a Have. Good cliffhanger.
