Members DRW50 Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 Come on Maria, the nose job isn't that bad. They already got that with LML and MAB. It could get worse, sure, but unless JFP starts playing pinata with corpses, I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted July 26, 2012 Administrator Share Posted July 26, 2012 I'd rather be on MAB's sinking ship than JFP's sinking ship. Bringing another outsider reminds me of LML who tried to make Y&R her own style, and fired all those long time Y&R vets. Scott "Murder Mystery" Hamner leaving is great news, but Hogan needs to go too. I would've liked to see MAB working along side Y&R vets like Alden.

Members wingwalker Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 Yeah, going to stop wishing for EP or HW changes, they never seem to be for the better any more, only seems to get worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 We've been on MAB's sinking ship for 4 years. Other than having the last name Bell has there ever been any indication that she cares any more about the show than LML did? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted July 26, 2012 Administrator Share Posted July 26, 2012 MAB makes wrong decisions but I do believe she truly cares about the show - it's part of her family. To LML and to JFP, Y&R is just another show. MAB also brought back Y&R vets like Mike Denney, Noel Maxam, Janice Ferri and promoted Sally McDonald. Also, Y&R's dark background music returned from LML's "rock and roll" background music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 To me a lot of that is surface changes. I think if she cared about the show then decisions like separating Katherine and Jill, having Adam as a psycho, having Diane brutally murdered with everyone saying she deserved it, aging the young characters 20 years for no apparent reason, etc. never would have happened.

Members Vee Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 Jamey Giddens' twitter is entertaining again as he dishes about MAB's stewardship being privately disliked by the Bells. It beats reading his fanfic or his embarrassing public fights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 Jamey Giddens: Sony and various regimes at CBS didn't agree with her (MAB) and neither did at least two of the Bell siblings, so I hear. Now that's interesting. I wonder which two Bells did like MAB? Brad never seems to talk about Y&R or mention MAB ever, so he could be one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 I wouldn't be surprised if Lauralee was one. She refused one return appearance, and the other two have been horribly written. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 Um have some of you watched Y&R recently are we talknig about the same MAB? She cares about the show so much she already accomplished everything tah tJFP would allegedly do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted July 26, 2012 Administrator Share Posted July 26, 2012 I think you can still make horendous decisions and still care about the show (ie. MAB, Corday, Brad Bell, Kay Alden, Jack Smith). Then there are others where the show is just a job to them and once they leave, they won't look back (ie. LML, JFP).

Members wingwalker Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 Well looks like it's official now JFP is the new EP and Josh Griffith is new HW.

Members DeeeDee Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 Lauralee is conflicted. She wanted to retire from acting completely but she felt obligated to help fix the embarrassing debacle Y&R became under LML as a favor to her parents.

Members alphanguy74 Posted July 26, 2012 Members Share Posted July 26, 2012 Yeah, but Carl, the surface is half the show. Well... if she's just the EP.... and she's not WRITING, then maybe it won't be so bad. We'll see, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
