I officially don't care anymore if Eric Braeden stays on the show or not, He is an arrogant SOB, and i'm tired of his B.S. I am waiting for him to legally change his name to Victor Newman. There really is just no difference between those 2.

Let's just hope he actually does become an "EOJ" (ENEMY of Jill) and his ass does get shown the door, because like I said i really just don't care, other characters made Y&R popular before he was even on.

Braeden always delivers. I have to admit, I laughed out loud at "some bastard started that rumor." Arrogant f*cker he may be, but that was funny.

Well PB is an FOJ, he says they go way back.

Jack and Bergman can stay, I actually really respect Bergman a lot more (even though he can be an ass sometimes) then I do most of the other egos on that show.

If Braeden wanted a rematch of that fistfight, Jill would most likely fire Braeden just like that...

What is it with Y&R? they always seem to have more pubic tension between cast members than the other soaps.

I don't know but you have to learn to love it. MTS' "comeback" interview, where she said people on the set were upset at her return and she didn't give a [!@#$%^&*], is one of the best moments of my life.

(I don't care how sad that is)

I'm still not sure if Braeden wanted this round of Sharon/Victor. I think he may have liked the idea at one time but nothing in this particular story has been any typical Victor worship plot.

  • Member

I think this pairing is pretty bad, but the reason Sharon was ruined in many peoples eyes was due to getting with Adam once she knew he stole her baby. I know that's when I stopped caring about the character. Since she still advocates for THAT pairing, I can't really care when she complains about Shicktor. She opened the door for this and Tucker and all the other foolishness by co-signing Shadam, which destroyed her character.

Someone posted an interview he did with SOD several years back at another site, which included comments about Sharon and Victor and how he thought it would create good drama on the show. That was I think back when jack smith was around. It could be that was what he was referring to in this recent interview. I haven't seen any indication this has been any great story for Victor or that Victor is winning over every other character.

I don't get how Shictor is ruining Sharon. All the BS folks online claim about isn't even happening. They barely share screen time, have barely kissed, and it's not romantic.it was done IMO to set the stage for Sharon taking

over Newman Enterprises, which is an idiotic story also. But I've seen folks praise the work Case has been doing so frankly I don't get what Case is that upset about. Sharon was ruined as a character long before this. And she's now aligning herself with Nelson Branco. Yeah thats going to be a good choice.

Other than Eric Braeden's egotistical obnoxiousness, I have come to enjoy the drama of the Y&R actors. I like that they don't fake that they are one happy family like the actors from other soaps do.

  • Member

But none of them crazy bridge burners?

Not one has been labeled crazy. But we're too sensitive and there's no racial motivation behind this crap with VR!

Yeah OK.

I do appreciate that part. We all know in no workplace does everyone get along especially when you're worknig long hours with people.I get such a sense of fakness from alot of the cast of GH.

  • Member

Whether they fake it or not, this crap should not be aired publicly. The actors are supposed to be creating a fantasy for the audience and how does that happen when the audience KNOWS the parties involved would rather be somewhere else? Its ridiculous!

Sharon Case needs to STFU because she is the most transparent here. Since when has that idiot cared about The Story?

  • Member

Frankly, what did Case Tweet that was so upsetting? She didn't hide the fact she thought the Shictor storyline was crap and disgusting. She never once spoke badly about Braeden.

It's not like most fans weren't thinking the same thing. Sharon didn't even bash the story directly, she just didn't hide her dissatisfaction with it. Big deal, Braeden does that himself all the time.

Don't know if this was it (I've seen Case being appreciative of fans wanting her to return to the likeable character she was before) but she replied to a Tweeter who was expressing dissatisfaction with Shictor and she (Case) replied: "I'm sorry. I know how you all feel about this. How do you think I FEEL?"

And I remember reading that she talked to MAB about it but MAB threatened to recast the role.

I wonder if what upsets Case is being moved to an older age group. Muhney was the hot stud on Y&R during Shadam.

Something must have happened backstage because they very clearly dropped Adam's story midway, dropped the faking blindness story, and put him with Chloe 2.0 in a backburner plot.
