This show is complete crap and after reading the MAY sweeps previews it is only going to get worst.:angry:

and honestly i just can't be bothered to watch the show anymore, there is nothing come the screen are on the future spoilers that actually interests me.

I 'm so sick of the over propping and never ending crap boring and predictable storylines involving the over rated one note EB and Jazz hands MS.

I have no interest in the stunt casting of GF as cane mother because everybody knows that the vet ladies MTS JW AND ED screen time is going to suffer and i wouldn't be surprised if all three ladies are back burned to no man's land are even killed of in some stupid storyline that honors the shows history.

The writers have already turned Nikki back into the lapdog abused doormat prop for victor again. ashley is with tucker which seems to be going nowhere but spiltville. and please the writers can't be bother even to write for jill unless it is to prop the old hag kay are to degrade the jill character even more.

I always like when we see Colin and Jill in those small scenes but the Cane stuff is just an annoying jumbled bizarre mess. Those scenes were so god awful. A rip-off of already bad stories like Izzy/Denny on Grey's Anatomy or Brad/Katie on ATWT? Either way, Lame is forever lame.

And yes those May spoilers I've read just sound absolutely worse than whats on the screen now, but I guess it was to be expected.

Good grief...so Sharon Case doesn't look in the mirror? How can she not know that stick-straight haystack looks awful on-air? Odd that when some actresses can't (or couldn't) even lighten their hair because their idiot EP likes "dark haired" aging ingenues (yes, I'm referring to Martha Byrne/Chris Goutman)...why doesn't Y&R's EP tackle SC, plant her ass in chair and CURL IT himself?

While I hate the whore makeup and clothes, at least the hair looks good.

I think Muhney has gotten cuter, less robotic-looking, as the show has gone on. I guess I don't mind tousled.

One good thing about yesterday's show was the baby (babies?) playing Lucy. Just watching them go nuts when their stomachs were being tickled was 1000 times more fun than the SL being played out alongside them.

Phyllis screwed Nick after Adam ditched them in St. Martin. They just "couldn't help themselves", being in the tropics, running around half-nekkid in the bridal suite, the only room available to spy on Adam. *eyeroll*

LOL line of the day..."Sharon loved FREELY". Yeah....she loved Nick, Adam, Billy, Jack and probably the milkman free of charge.

Just some observations, now that I caught up with the week.

...it's too bad TIIC won't do more with Leslie Michaelson. She seems to be a better match for Neil in every possible way. Somehow Tucker's right hand shark Sophia seems way too young for Neil.

...was it just me, or did Sophia and Malcolm's room look like the suite Nick and Phyllis started out the week flucking in?

...I don't get the point of Adam's over-the-top histrionics. Yeah, "the love of his life" is dead. But every time he opens his mouth about being "denied" this or that "right", he makes it less about Sharon and more about HIM.

...that said, Sharon's memorial sucked. Truly, Ashley couldn't have bothered to show up? Or Neil, who spent Monday excusing Victor's betrayal of Sharon?

...Phyllis spent the entire service on the edge of her seat, as if she'd unwittingly sat in the wrong chair and was looking for a commercial break to sneak down next to Nick.

...Sharon, a vet and a lamb walk into a bar...YES, that's how ridiculous this story is, it sounds like the set up for a joke. Oh, and I lmao thinking of Sharon birthin' lambs, mucking stalls and herdin' horses in her four-inch Manolo Blaninks. And I snorted with laughter when poor Sharon "slipped up" and named some chi-chi wine for the doc to pair with his frozen chinese entree. And then proceeded to scarf down the offered plate like a starving lumberjack.

    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse 
    • Tina Sloan tied Jerry VerDorn record when Guiding Light was cancelled - 26 years uninterrupted 
    • Very true...but TPTB all were desperate to get into prime time or films and couldn't, so they looked down on their own industry and tried to infuse themes that just didn't work in soaps. I would have thought after 9/11 the shows would have gone out of their way to provide that warmth and comfort that the audience wanted, and to bring old viewers back. Budget cuts? Just bring back kitchen sets, both ATWT and GL got rid of those besides one each..(the Snyders and the Bauers) You don't need super fancy sets if you have the writing. 
    • LMAO they didn't
