Dear God, this thread is on page 2? I don't blame you all. BTW, if anybody is still watching, you might want to give today's (Friday) US episode a miss. It was SO BORRRRRRING. I can't even remember what happened and I just finished watching it five minutes ago. I know it featured Billy in his trailer... Delia in hospital... They're still trying to make Victoria & Farmer Vet happen... Phyllis and Avery... oh! And Yvonne Zima is back. That says it all really.

I actually do buy Jessica Collins as a lawyer and I like her as Avery. It's Eden Reigel as ADA that I never believed for one instant.

I did see Jess's post. She gave her opinion clearly and directly without being spiteful, I thought, she is entitled to do so and, in this instance, I think she is absolutely right. I worry that this will result in her being punished and Jill backburned, though. Or worse. ohmy.png

I just don't think Avery works as a character on this show. Her quirkiness might fit better on a show like AMC (well would have) where it would be considered and likely treated as a more endearing trait than making her look ditzy so people like Victor can look like REALMEN and all knowing. I like her I just don't think she fits like at all.

Daisy being back on today is a clear example of what a total chaotic random mess this show has become. It should also be a clear example of why Y&R today again posted another record low weekly rating. Revolution and regime change have go to be on the way soon enough.

As for Jess I say more power to her I don't think she has anything to lose anymore does she?

for me, jessica collins has been one of the few bright spots on the show.

i think she's great as avery, and i don't understand all the criticism. she's a strong actress, has chemistry with a lot of people, and is good at playing an attorney.

yvonne zima, on the other hand, is a train wreck from hell.

      John Black actually was the ultimate good guy soap hero. So I don’t mind the town gushing over him. It’s deserved.

      Be glad it wasn't a Perry production.

      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.

      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.
