Y&R: Discussion for the month of January

I cannot believe that when Maria started writing JILL finally became JILL again. But ever since that contract dispute/Sheffer's arrival Jill's is nothing but a sick joke and the writing worse (which says A LOT!) than under Jack Smith or LML when they tied her to Kay's hip. Bastards! All of them.

But yay for the WhoreHair. :)

I will always love Maura but its ridiculous they had her Diane pretty much stripping in front of old man Braeden. Pretty gross especially when you just know Braeden wanted this to keep fulfilling Victor's mojo.

I noticed Stafford and Phyllis today as well. Even weirder how in today's episode Phyllis now is a champion of Sharon's innocence. Stafford has been horrendous since Phick began and the Phelia crap but since West joined the show I'm sure its a nightmare now for her.

John and Jill were IT as far as I'm concerned. I always thought that, at some point, they'd find their way back to one another...and then implode once again. I found them such a compelling, layered, interesting couple.

The only way the Jill/Colin storyline could be salvaged in a way that benefits Jill is if Colin, even with his dastardly intentions, fell in love with Jill for real OR if Jill discovered Colin's wicked ways and then set out and successfully destroyed him. But the way it's going to develop is that Jill will be the idiot and Colin will hoodwink Jill.

Jill is a truly terrific character. She is a dynamic woman. One of the last strong women in daytime. What Sheffer has done to her is SICK.

But yes, yay for the whore hair! It hacks 15 years off her looks. Jess is beautiful, the long hair really enhances that.

Colin and Jill forever. :wub: Either separately or together. That is all.

And WhoreHairJill looks younger than when she had that Meg Ryan hair thing going on.

Jesus. If I have to sit through one more nausea-inducing flashback of that Daisy creature screaming her placenta out like a crazed hyena, I am going to consider getting my tubes tied.

What was with that weird scene with her visiting Sharon in jail?

Makes me wonder if Stafford told TPTB that she will not be renewing her contract when it is next up and they will be writing Phyllis down the road to Crazyville.

It's, like, when is this b!tch going to get the cuffs slapped on her? Then I'd like GC to throw a "Yay! Phyllis is in Jail!" parade through the corridors of the old pokey.

Did you see her "write" her "blog" about Sharon and then have an orgasm as she released it into the blogosphere? Even Billy Miller looked scared.

    • During Taggert Alan mentions Amanda as his "daughter" while that most likely is a writers slip up, I like to think it was a retcon. They never have Alex, on any of her frequent trips back mention Amanda as my sister, etc. I know they just want to forget it and Amanda was probematic in her marriage to Roger (i.e. MADD's decree that Roger will never be mentioned again..) Again, they could have easily brought her back with a handwave from Alex or Alan saying it was a trick from Brandon.   There is Amanda, AM and ALL the various offspring Phillip created. Plus head of family means head of Spaulding.   I would have thought it interesting if Phillip becomes more like Alan (but in the gray area he always was, not outright cartoon villain RR Alan) and AM comes back with more of his Bauer coming out and wanting to do things on the up and up..maybe AM became a lawyer like his grandfather in the missing years...and Amanda could play both sides against the other.  But also they could have brought someone like Kyle Sampson back to rival Phillip and the Spaulding (maybe Amanda married him) but then, of course there would be ANOTHER man horning after long in the tooth Reva!
    • Those descriptions of Mary Carney-- from Michael Levin --were from a magazine article in the early 1980's. In the book, he did say all three Mary replacements were bad.

    • Sometimes you don't have friends as much as you have family. I'm trying to remember if Dylan really had a guy  friend. He and Mindy finally became friends after a rough introduction, and he interacts with Hart#1 and A-M#1, but I'm not sure they're really "friends". Maybe David. Whereas with Bridget, because there aren't a lot of Reardons around, gets friends like Kat and David.
    •   Well at least KKL looks fabulous. https://wornontv.net/511536/

    • There was something about her being kidnapped by a Professor (?) and then presumed dead when Judi Evans left. Then somehow she ends up with Neil Everest with amnesia and being mute. Beth Chamberlain doesn't say a thing for like her first three months on the show. I sort of agree that Phillip should've been head of the family. But there's not a lot of family for him to be "head" of. Unless they could've found a better recast for Alan, I'd have been okay with him dying earlier. What Phillip really needed was an equal rival. Whether it was in the family or outside the family. And other than Roger and the first go-round with VI as Lujack, he never really had one. I'm hesitant to call Chris Bernau's Alan a rival, but he certainly was a source of conflict in Phillip's life.

    • We're getting an actual personality and flaws for Ashley... so it's a good start.  I'm guessing that Derek is her first serious relationship and I think she's falling out of love with Derek.. just hasn't accepted that realization as of yet. I agree that the show was diving headfirst into an Andre/Ashley pairing in the first handful of episodes, but they backed off of it and I have two theories: - Andre/Dani had a rapport/chemistry.  Probably more so than MVJ or the writers anticipated so the show is probably exploring that avenue. - Based on the character template that Ashley was created from... having her stray with Andre would have been out of character and caused the audience to hate her so the show is now weaving in reasons why Ashley might be looking Andres way (i.e. grass is greener on the other side, inexperience, Derek being too basic/vanilla).  
    • Has anyone watched the Texas reunion interview? I haven't gotten to it yet although it'll probably mean more to the people who watched the show at the time.
