Members EricMontreal22 Posted November 29, 2011 Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 LOL he's going to be doing a drinking game, that involves a gay kiss, in the *middle of the Horton Town Square*? (Is he even 21 yet?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 29, 2011 Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 That's where they all go after dark now that the docks have been shut down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Shawn Posted November 29, 2011 Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 I totally buy that WIll lashes out by drinking and attacking everyone. I was in complete denial and was a total douche to everyone around at the same time that I turned to pot and vodka to numb what I was feeling. It happens a LOT this way, and I'm glad that MarDar aren't sugarcoating it. I just find it funny though, that when there's not enough news/movement in the story, people complain, and when they finally reveal juicy tidbits and tease what huge happenings are in the near future, the same people complain again. What do you want them to do? Have Will walk up to Sonny and play with his Christmas bulbs at the Horton Tree Trimming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRBB Posted November 29, 2011 Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 As a Y&R fan, I find it shocking when people complain about slow pace. Doesn't bother me one bit, if it's well written. I hope they can do this story justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members KMan101 Posted November 29, 2011 Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 I admit that the pacing has slowed big time since MarDar took over, but I think it's fine. Soaps build storylines. The problem with soaps anymore is that there IS NO building. It's just plot and shock and awe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted November 29, 2011 Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 I think whats more jarring is how uneven the pacing is. This stuff started under the old writers run and they had stuff began and end and now months later we are still very much in the beginning stages of this story. You have stuff like Maggie's baby ordeal going at rapid pace and this slow as molasses. This story feels like its in its own time warp and just doesnt seem to keep up with the rest of the show. I wish there was a bit more consistency bc its clearly not much of a focus for the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Gray Bunny Posted November 29, 2011 Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 I'm glad this storyline is finally developing, and it does sound good, but I think they reveal way too much. Hints and teasers would be good (i.e. "EJ becomes involved in Will's secret", "Sonny witnesses Will in a compromising position" etc.) but all-out bullet-mark plot point progression takes away any surprise. And a 2-and-1/2-month story advance? I would've given us teasers for Decembers and hints for what's to come in the new year. JMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 29, 2011 Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 This sounds very plot-driven. I guess this is more of Will as the new Sami, even though I've never really seen anything Sami-ish in the time I've watched (although I certainly haven't watched every day). The problem with all this edginess is that it's going to stop when he's actually near another man - it's all about the angst and agony and shame of being gay, not about actual relationships with other men. I wonder if we will even see this kiss or if we will just see Sonny making a shocked facial expression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Michael Posted November 29, 2011 Members Share Posted November 29, 2011 Exactly. They're excited about it because it's happening in their world now, but it's three months off for us. Also, I sincerely believe that Corday/Meng/whoever pulled back on this story when they changed writers, because Higley had some insane plan that they did NOT want to happen. So it's been in a holding pattern for months. Oh, please. There is no "after dark" in Salem. It's all daylight, all the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
