Y&R: Discussion for the Month of September

[Cat]

No. This show feels so piecemeal and messy. Like strands of SL that have been hastily cut and are just blowing in the wind.

[Juliajms]

OMG. I just saw that

is coming back.

[DRW50]

I was going to buy some Pop Tarts until I read that.

The way things are going and ratings dropping I believe Y&R will be well under a 3.0 by the time November comes around. Let the MAB/Sheffer/Hamner boat sink or pray SONY asks for a reboot like Days.

[dm.]

Yep. MAB seems to think people like her. Then again, she seems to think people like the Y&R writing.

[DeeeDee]

She POPS!

[DRW50]

She's a breakfast treat, she's a suppository...too bad about the acting.

[DRW50]

MAB: You know, when Bill Bell was sitting on my shoulder, he told me Yvonne Zima pops!

Interviewer: Do you still feel Darius McCrary is the best recast ever?

MAB: That wasn't me, and we were just honoring history. Remember when Bill wasn't sitting on my shoulder and said Shari Shattuck was the best recast he'd ever seen?

Interview: Well...no.

MAB: My quote, my vision!

[DeeeDee]

LOLOL

Clearly Maria doesn't understand the difference between love to hate and outright hate. Good thing for Heart of Dixie or else there would be an anemic blonde around as well.

The Victor/Billy rivalry needs to stop. Billy's not worth it. I am glad this isn't a repeat of Victor's story with Michael (not Baldwin). I thought they were going there when it was revealed where Billy was.

Was it really necessary to give Delia leukemia? This is more pointless than Summer getting poisoned.

Good for Devon getting a story. Too bad it's going to end up being more about Tucker.

[MoTheGreat]

But I like it, I know Deeedee going to say I shouldn't but Devon getting screen time. I been watching Y&R on my tv set just for him. I even sit through those other storylines.

I probably would sit through Deila storyline if Summer can save her.

[Antoyne]

So Cat, you're saying her murder isn't even brought up anymore? Thank god I got tha second job and don't care for Soapnet's non-HD reshowings.

[Cat]

Well, Ronan is still hanging around like a bad smell, staring longingly at psycho Chloe... so by definition, since he came to GC to solve the murder, one presumes that's what he's doing. But Diane is no longer mentioned. Completely dropped. Sharon's trial for the Skye clusterfuck is mentioned more than Diane. Haven't seen Kyle either.

[Cat]

Bryton and Tatiana Ali are so... welcoming to watch. Their acting is natural and Bryton especially comes across as really talented. No hamminess, just very honest reactions and interactions with others. I liked him with Marcy Rylan the other day (as co-conspirators and new friends). Today's US episode really shows what an asset the show has with this actor. He stands head and shoulders above the Eden Reigels, Jeff Bransons, Heinles, Millers, Muhneys and others. In fact he reminds me a lot of Doug Davidson. Can't believe I thought it would be best f he left a few years ago.

[MoTheGreat]

The reason why you thought Bryton should leave because he just in the background. Last week Bryton ask us on SOC, what could he do to make his character less boring. I believe a lot of us said he needs to be seen more. Are you watching Y&R since he been getting airtime?
