Y&R: October 2012 Discussion Thread

[Cat]

I liked Heather when she started but she lost me with the whole "Christine is EVUL for wanting to waste time putting poor innocent Phyllis in jail" spiel. Like her dad wasn't Phyllis's OTHER victim in the hit-and-run. Nevermind that Phyllis's magazine hadn't got her fired from being ADA one year earlier. It's not like Daniel didn't think his mother had done a terrible thing, either. I have no use for agenda-pushing mouthpieces and if Heather's Greek Chorus role is going to be about espousing the virtues of characters the audience hates, forgettaboutit.

Honestly, Vail Bloom should come back or they should just call it a day with Heather. Vail had chemistry with every actor she acted against.

I think Landon's exit was confirmed.

Just yesterday I accidentally stumbled upon a scene between Vail and Chris Engen; they really had chemistry and that was the Adam that I cared about. Even Vail going up against Eric Braeden was fun for me. Landon might be good as Heather, but something is missing there, IMO.

[Antoyne]

I loved Vail's Heather so much. She wasn't an Oscar winning actress but she had onscreen presence. Something her replacements have been sorely lacking.

I just can't muster up anything for Landon's Heather, she's so blah.

Did we ever get confirmation if Billy is in or out?

[dm.]

Nothing on either Billy or Daniel.

[antmunoz]

Carmine has REALLY been forgotten. I wonder if Abby leaves GC with him, or just goes to NYC with Ashley.

If Heather leaves...and I don't see Eden on the opening...who does that leave for Daniel (leaving also?) and Kyle? Is Chloe getting passed around again?

Since we obviously need a CHEAPER Heather Williams, I'm contacting Melissa Archer right now.

[frequentsoapfan]

The only Heather we need is Vail Bloom.

[Khan]

Yeah, I'd have to agree (and I wasn't even a Vail fan, lol). Either VB returns, or send Heather down an empty elevator shaft to her death.

[Taiah]

Carmine was pointless from the get go. A penis for Abby and nothing more. JL/Heather is leaving, JG confirmed that. I didn't know blah Eden wasn't in the opening but she can really go. I am not trying to see Kyle, Noah, and possibly Daniel circling her cause there's no other unmarried women in this bracket. Chloe needs to go back to scheming and gold digging. The young set is too lame and tame.

A Penis For Abby.

Sounds like a bad movie of the week.

[frequentsoapfan]

It's what he was though. Someone to come in and bang bitter Abby while providing us shirtless scenes.

[antmunoz]

You say that like its a bad thing.

[Khan]

No, more like a lost episode of "Little House on the Prairie."

[antmunoz]

I saw that one! I believe Katy Kurtzman played Abby!!

However, the only penis I remember on LITTLE HOUSE was Pa Ingalls. The man lived to go commando.

[Khan]

Well, she was "Abby" before Doc Baker's operation. Then, she was "Abner"; and though there was some slight hesitation on the part of the townspeople, in time, everyone in Walnut Grove came to love him, too.

You know you're gay (or going to hell) when you're watching LHOTP and wishing Michael Landon would be shirtless in every scene.
