Right now it's so infuriating to me that a show with the word "YOUNG" in it, has such a lack of any teen stories whatsoever. Regardless of how Days and GH handle their younger set/Teen stories at least they have them now, and Y&R doesn't bother. 

Every recent attempt to add a younger element to the show has been a misfire.

Ana Hamilton and Fen Baldwin

Reed Hellstrom

Charlie/Mattie Ashby

and now Moses Winters and Faith Newman get a few scenes maybe once aweek.

The writing for the "Young" isn't strong. Moses and Faith comes off as two sixty year old's in a retirement village in Florida falling for one another. Instead of two sixteen year old's growing up in a faster society than previous teen groups throughout the decades on the show. 

 

While I like the young group on GH I hope they remember those young ones are 18 and not 16 in terms of story they're going to be given. i.e. Beverly Hills 90210 - The College Years rather than BH 90210 - High School Years.

I feel like each of these roles were properly cast, but none were given anything to do. Especially when you think of Lily's kids, it makes no sense to SORAS them so early and then do nothing. It's a waste. I feel like whenever they return I'd just keep them as teens anyway since we didn't really get to utilize that time period for them. Ana and Fen of course should've been a couple, but I'm glad Loren Lott is gone and thriving elsewhere.

Variety reports that Mike Ogiens CBS daytime VP told affiliates that Bill Bell had a soap in development.

This has been mentioned before but good to see official confirmation.

Was this the “The Many Ways of Love/To Love Each Day” soap I’ve seen mentioned before? I wonder what the soap would have been about aside from one mention of “possible Y&R spinoff”.

I have binge watched all of 2003 aside from the Kay/Jill mother daughter storyline 2003 was insanely good from Sharon leaving town, Cassie falling into the lake to Victor and Michael committing commercial bribery causing Ashley’s accident and mental breakdown. Nick turning Victor in to the authorities behind his back how I wished I watched this when it aired. 
 

I do agree when people say 2003 was the last classic year of y&r although 2004 and 2005 were still interesting

You cannot compare to the late 80's and 90s.. nothing compares. I was hooked!

Thanks so much!  I did watch both episodes already, they were only available in German. 

The pretty Ashley's breakdown..

 

 

Honestly Brenda was amazing as Ashley during that story. She was nailing it. But I hate this story so much. She was literally the only thing holding it all together. I wish she had stayed, at least a few more years. 

Ashley had her own bedroom! Nowadays that scene would take place in the living room...
