Y&R: Discussion for the month of January

Featured Replies

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.

Ugh...it's like everyone thought it was so funny for Phyllis to "write" it as she "read" it aloud. I don't know who had a longer standing orgasm---Phyllis, or Sharon when she thought Nick had bailed her out.

Wish Maria and co. had the guts to admit that Y&R doesn't need the Phyllis character anymore.

imagines all The Stafford fans throwing themselves off a cliff at the thought.

I know it's borderline nasty, but Diane is a lot more fun when TIIC let Maura own her history.

I had to laugh at the Cane story---it must be wrapping up, everyone's acting like they have a functioning brain cell.

The ironic thing is they don't.

Which is why Maria's been trying desperately to give her useless ass something to do.

Exactly.

As much as Maura as Diane doesn't make sense she's a good enough actress to at least make things entertaining.

The acting, script outlines and dialog have rocked this week on Y&R...too bad the overall stories are horrendous. The Sky in Hawaii thing..who can keep track of the stupidity? Billy getting a baby from Primrose...great idea but rushed and inappropriate for this couple. I do LOVE that Daniel figured it out. He could drive story for years. MG is such a compelling/natural actor. If the story is told from his vantage point they will turn this 2011 boondoggle into gold (2010 boondoggle had to be the patty/sarah/emily mess).

Has MTS lost gobs of weight..she's looking fierce and sober! I remember those episodes a while back where her eyelids were so heavy it was uncomfortable to watch (the extended lashes didn't help).

But Sharon/Adam...wow have they destroyed any semblance of empathy or interest in the Sharon character. She was someone interesting as a thief and when she was with Jack (maybe she can steal back the Nazi loot and Brad will get unfrozen by Mikos Cassadine to help her retrieve and return the reliquary). MM/Adam..not working...he's no Sky Whitney/Luke Spenser/Todd Manning....rather watch the paint dry on Kay's face. End this sham, put Adam in jail and get Sharon into therapy, away from Nick. Bring her Mamma back to reestablish some empathy. Maybe she can join Noah's band and have sex with Devon.

Love Jill/Colin..but I have a feeling it is temporary. Loved when Esther reminded her of her own story with deadbeats. Those dining room scenes were priceless.

Janice Ferri Esser's scripts rock and I think Conal O'Brian's directing is clean and nice. but Sally and Mike are tops.

Loved the scenes last week when Jana was feeling Kevin's erect peepee..Who else thinks Kevin is lacking the equipment to star in HUNG?

Why are they wasting Tucker/SN? So much potential.

Now if only one of three highly paid headwriters could craft a coherent/semi-believable storyline??

Since Jan 2010, I think they have been doing Port Charles style 13 week story arcs but don't announce it. Probably a Bloom influence. Will be interesting to see if any of her appointees get canned behind or in front of the screen. We know she brought in Latham and Hamner, but CBS likes the Hamner family...Earl did wonders for the lineup in the 70s with The Waltons. Son Scott may be safe. Sheffer is probably a Sony appointment, safe..

Can someone give Josh Morrow a shot of Vitamin D or B12. He's comatose. His performances have been lacking since his brief Jason Morgan/lost memory plot. I thought he rocked it out with that short arc, looking fierce/acting all sexy and lost. But this Nick...NOT.

Does anyone other than Kay and Jill own a non-sleeveless dress? Carly, I mean, Diane and and Phil...half nekked and cleavage all the time...in Wisconsin...gotta love it though.

AMC and Y&R fun to watch this month for the most part!

I seriously don't understand how SN (Tucker)was part of a romantic couple in his former show. Had no problem with Sophia being fired, but the way Tucker yells so into her face reminded me when he first came to be and reamed out Katherine. Honestly, Victor has more respect (except with Nikki of course). Jill, Diane, Katherine, Ashley and Sophia, actually all women he has contact with, has an undercurrent of him feeling they are beneath him. I guess a better description might be the classic "male chauvinist pig" label and goes along with his 70's hairdo.

I have been enjoying Sofia's scenes with Cane. Malcolm and Tucker haven't been doing her any favors.

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.

I'm on board for the fall in love Jill and Colin story. Those two have it going on, comedy or drama, they could provide years of interesting entertainment as a couple.

No way would they allow Jill to outsmart him. If that was going to happen, why not Tucker, he was all set up for it. Instead they have Jill still acting like he's her best bud. Had to gag when she asked him to stay for engagement brunch yesterday. It was amusing however, he stuck out like a sore thumb. The Chancellor Mansion has always been a zany place and all the characters are masters of switching from drama to comedy in a nano second or at the same time. Lauren and Micheal fit right in and added to the crazy antics. This would have been Billy's type of gathering he was missed, but Tucker is just too heavy to roll with it. He needs to stay over at Ashley's house where the atmosphere is calmer.

Didn't I read something about MTS having some kind of surgery? I think she simply feels better now.

LOL about the sleeveless dresses. The one they had on Nikki the other day was horrendous. While Diane rarely shows cleavage, at least the dresses fit better now than they did the first month Maura showed up. Those garbage bags were hideous.

One of these days Phyllis is going to freeze her hoochie off..if her tatas aren't front and center, it's backless.

Oh...anyone think Deacon's going to try teaming up with Diane? There has to be some reason Nikki told Deacon Vic and Diane had done the deed.

My preference is to have Colin fall in love with Jill because Tristan Rogers and Jess Walton have IT and I haven't seen IT on Y&R for at least a decade.

The Jill we all know could outsmart Colin if she wanted to...but it's Sheffer. He just won't let her.

All Y&R needs is a solid umbrella business story with Jill/Colin Vs. Tucker/Ashley with a side of Michael/Lauren, Neil/Leslie & Vance.

+1. Is Leslie the lawyer right? Because I really like her and her passion, hoping she would be sucked in with Neil myself.

Yep.

Exactly.

Yes Leslie is the lawyer, and yeah i would also like to see Leslie with Neil. It would be awesome if perhaps they throw Devon in the mix and their would be a triangle between him Neil and Leslie ( sorry but can't picture Roxanne staying any more longer if she hasn't already left...) but alas... only the fans have more imagination than the actual writers.....

It is sad and I always go back to the fall of 2008 when Olivia came back. I wanted Olivia to be the one to come between Karen and Neil not silly superfluous Tyra. Just imagine the ramifications of Neil and Olivia getting back together, especially beyond Dru's fall. Anyways I'd say bring on Leslie/Neil/Sophia I would take it.

  • Member

Neil really should be with Sharon.

What's even sadder is that not only does it make total sense from a character POV but Kristoff & Case have really good chemistry.

Narcolepsy levels reach dangerous highs.
