Neil-Dru-with-his-brother-Malcolm-Dru-s-sister-Olivia-the-young-and-the-restless-4974759-304-444.jpg

This week's story surrounding Sophia's baby made me post that picture. I want to like the story but its so off.

This mess still keeps chugging along. Its sad I still even watch. Call it old habit but I just hate seeing a show full of still potential to be so much much much better going down the drain due to behind the scenes incompetence of all sorts.

Didn't they? Actually this past year the sad reality is we're seeing the most of the Winters family for the first time in a good five years.

There's something I want to like about Jack/Genevive/Colin/Jill but you know what how much better would this story be if that was Nikki in Genevive's place? In fact with no offense to Genie Francis it SHOULD be Nikki!

The very criminally way underused Bryton James and Tatyana Ali should have had a major story a long long time ago. We hit rock bottom with the god awful Tyra crap and at least Devon and Roxanne got a few decent scenes out of that with their break-up and subsequent reconciliation.

I'm going to watch it Today, I want to tape it but my machine is broke. I don't know how to do the spoiler tag thing. I'm so happy that Devon & Neil have other stuff to worried about. So when Cane lies to CKLily once again & she comes running, I'm hoping they tell her to kick rocks because they got their own problems.

I'm no Khalil fan at all but I wish they could at least make Lily smart. I've enjoyed all the Daniel and Lily scenes over the past few months because its actually given CKLily something else to do and to be honest I haven't liked CKLily this much since running off with Daniel back in '05. What would be nice is if we could have a smarter, maturer, survivor Lily start fresh with someone new.

But yes, if this Devon story suddenly becomes all about poor helpless sick Lily I will be sickened.

As for Eden she's been back ever since Abby ran into her in rehab. She was in rehab because some drug problem and a bulimia problem. She eventually decided to move back to Genoa City right after vowing not to. She's been back and ran into Noah and his new girlfriend Hunter a few times with a lot of awkwardness. When talking to each other in private Noah and Eden hinted about some bad deed Noah did that triggered Eden's downward spiral but it hasn't been fully revealed yet.

    • 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
