Y&R: October 2012 Discussion Thread

Featured Replies

  • Member

Even though Adam's technically on all the time, I don't feel like he's leading anything. He's supporting Sharon in her story, and supporting in Jack's takeover of Newman. He's not really leading anything on his own.

Adam/Chelsea's marriage problems feels like a B story.

I'd prefer to not see him at all though...

It just seems like he is the only one out of a handful of the cast that is getting story....

I can't wait till Jill returns.

I'm so glad Griffith got rid of Maria's hokey annual Halloween parties that Billy would throw at that dive bar. I also hope they never do another "It's A Wonderful Life" Christmas episode again.

That sh!t was not Y&R.

LOL, I said this almost verbatim on another thread yesterday:

Are you telling me that Billy's Hallowe'en bash is some kind of Y&R "tradition" now? Because -- no. No thanks.

And the Ghost of Christmas Past episodes can get canned, too. I liked Michael's one initially but now they are just saccharine, sentimental tripe.

You're not kidding. Especially where the Christmas eps were concerned. Not only were the "It's a Wonderful Life" homages not Y&R, they weren't the least bit compelling or crucial to the long-term story either. Which is tragic, if you ask me, b/c even I thought Y&R, next to ALL MY CHILDREN and the P&G soaps, honored the Christmas season pretty well under Papa Bell.

I always remember that episode where Victoria asked Cole to show her how to pray. That scene should have annoyed me to no end, but between the staging and Heather Tom's performance, I was moved.

That is the Christmas I miss, moreso than the endless "remember the teddy bear tree" stuff, or the IAWL episodes. The worst part of those is they never go anywhere. They never lead to anything. They are Emmy bait, with a stronger stench than Jacob Marley's rotting flesh.

Nikki's was just plain bad last year

The Micheal one did give us good moments such as Kevin in an institution, Gloria being the Jabot cleaning lady and Victor in jail. Other than that it was an assault on history.

The script was trite, but I didn't mind it too much, as they at least referenced her history. The Chompers one I can not forgive, especially the scenes of him berating John and calling him by his name, instead of Dad.
