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.

    • Joss can go, permanently; killed off, body bag and all, and never ever return.

    • I was under the impression that it is always wrong to post private email unless there is some threat of bodily harm. But I think your doing so brings up an interesting point since it shows that I had known about the illness/disease since the prior April if I am wrong & you are right & my point was to break the news why didn't I post it ages ago? My reply is that my point was never about scoop or breaking news.  Somewhere in this onslaught you've said I posted about some actors having an affair. I have zero idea what or who you're talking about.  You mention a cast member's medical condition which about a dozen people discussed & someone NOT ME began the discussion at least a month before I joined it.  Is everyone who took part in that conversation based on having concern for the actress in trouble or just me? There are definitely things that are not true ... and they are not lies told by me. Probably they are things being misremembered. 
    • Lol.  I still believe there is a place for Joss on the canvas.  This just isn't it and I am not sure Eden McCoy is the right choice for the role.
    • I haven't read it since high school--but it has stuck with me and is a pretty important book (as a kid I did always assumed it was related to the Wells work too

    • I am entertained by the Duprees.
    • This would be a weird comment to make about the face of the show if it wasn't damn accurate. In the 90s she was mostly confined to her own orbit with her daughters and Cass, aside from a few stories. Her relationship with Rachel was pretty weird too. A case of tell not show. They seemed to be there for each other at big moments (weddings, funerals, etc.) and proclaim how close they were, but rarely interacted outside of those. I only remember one storyline they had together - the Lucas lookalike - but that was more about their significant others' animosity if I'm remembering correctly. In hindsight, it was pretty strange how little Rachel, Felicia & Donna - all around the same age give or take - had to do with each other for the last decade. The actresses were all top-10 in longevity for the entire show and made it to the finish line, but never meaningfully mixed it up at the end. Even Donna dating Rachel's son didn't lead to many interactions between those 2. I can understand JFP's reasoning for getting rid of Donna, even if I didn't agree with it (she was my favorite of the 3).
    • The people of Genova should all be 300lb. All they do is hangout and restaurants 
    • It's called being pro-active.. something that soap operas have failed to do in the last twenty to twenty five years. The Duprees are not a compelling family.. .a lot of telling and not showing.  I'm actually more invested in the non-Dupree characters then the Duprees right now.
