Y&R: Discussion for the Month of July

^^^it's really too bad more of the Michael/Diane friendship hasn't been seen. Personally, I'd have rather seen Diane break up the terminally boring Michael/Lauren than bed The Three Himbos, but that's just me. I am really surprised Maura and CJLB developed a chemistry so quickly.

There was an awesome story to be told about Diane/Adam/Lauren/Michael buying up Newman stock & controlling Victor's company.

It would've given Michael/Lauren something to do that didn't involve Sheila/Giggly/Kevin/Gloria/Daisy, kept Adam from being useless while Sharon's gone & given Diane back her independence.

But instead Diane goes under the bus again, Adam is needlessly propped & Michael/Lauren remain useless glorified extras.

I would've been up for a Diane/Michael/Lauren triangle. Yes Laurel are the only stable married couple on the show and for years at that but oh well. They need something to do besides being scared of Daisy :rolleyes: and being Victor's bitch.

It's a credit to Michael Muhney that he's managed to become such a fan favorite and he is a talented actor, but these days I don't even recognize anything about the character or that there even is a character. This character - and I blame TPTB for this, because they did it when Engen was in the role - is one of the biggest decimations I can remember on a soap. I think Muhney is pretty much just playing generic snarky antihero #493, but at least he's making the effort. The show stopped caring a long time ago.

Well they're not really feuding. There was a scene where Nick went to see Billy to tell him to get his ass back to Victoria. Billy was passed out drunk. But the scene just had this oddly sexual vibe, and my mind got to wondering where that could lead and what a great soapy story it would be.

A woman's brother having an affair with her husband? Do it MAB!

You mean you want to see the filth of men straightening each other's ties?

I would go for this story mostly just to see Morrow having to again say why Phick is better.

"Well, Billy's what Nick needs...but Phyllis and Nick have always liked strap-ons, so it's just as good with Phyllis! Sorta..."

hey everyone! Newbie here! :wub:

i can't watch NuEden and Noah without wanting to fall asleep. I don't get why she had to be recasted in the first place. :rolleyes:

I don't hate MM! Although, IMHO, he does come off as an arrogant arsehole...but that's JMO. I don't know the guy. I do hate Adam however. I don't see what MAB see's in this character!

Michael Muhney has played both the Sheriff on Veronica Mars and Adam on Y&R as arrogant and smug, and that's why I don't like the actor (or the character for the matter) one bit. Ugh. Just ugh.

I'm pretty sure they had found out that Daniel's father wasn't really Danny, but that doctor guy she boinked. Either that or they had learned she had at least slept with another man around the time that Daniel would have been conceived. Something to that effect.

That may hit a little too close to home for MAB! :lol:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Friggin HILARIOUS and SO TRUE!

I'd hate to see Miller end up quitting after all, though, because of the lengths his character would be going to in order to protect his agenda. I mean straightening his own wife's brother's tie?

The fans are willing to accept any number of things, but that would be the point of no return for Billy. At least for this guy and I'm SURE I'm not the only one. :mellow:

    • I love my girl, but nope he's pathetic. 250K and now he's put her business at risk.   L O S E R

    • The whole town gushing over John Black as if he was a saint is eye rolling.  I guess death really colors people's memories over his many flaws, but I guess that is normal and human nature. I'm still confused as to why Leo hasn't been written out.  The actor stank up two soaps with his sub par acting, what does he have on TPTB's to remain on these soaps.   What's the point of Cat?  I hope the new head-writers figure out her purpose and develop her character. And I much prefer scenes not focusing on John's death because life does go on for the world when someone passes.  
    • Wasn't there a break in Zaslow's first run? I thought Roger was off-screen for a while, and when Zas came back, Roger was hiding at the boarding house and Nola figured out there was something hinkey about him. I'm pretty sure Simon chose to leave the first time and was replaced by RVV. I don't want to assume Jordan's issues played a role in his first departure, but Maeve said in an interview that at some point, it became very hard for her to work with him and she asked to work with him less. That seems to fit 1986, where suddenly Vanessa is essentially Ross' law clerk and not at every Lewis family moment.
    • 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
