Members Ann_SS Posted February 26, 2013 Members Share Posted February 26, 2013 I don't get a creepy vibe from Kyle rather I think he is bland and lacks charisma. I totally understood why16 year old Victoria fell for twenty something year old Ryan and Colleen fell in love with J.T, but I just can't see what Summer would be so desperately attracted to with Kyle. He is just there, you know. Now if Summer made a play for Alex, I would get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 I think the days of Newman/Abbott mingling being an interesting conflict passed many years ago. There are no Abbotts at this point, to me anyway, and the Newman family, outside of Nikki, all seem dull as hell to me. Bacteria was about as interesting as Kevin's hair gel. I'm more interested in whether or not Y&R's casting director has a weakness for slightly pudgy men who bathe in Crisco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members antmunoz Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 Summer was driving when she was aged with the first (bad) actress, so she was 16. Hasn't she had a very low-key birthday since? So, 17, but 18? I guess she. Fen and Jamie are seniors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 I was hoping people had forgotten that. Look, I think Sony probably just wanted her on the show and when Leon gained the weight, they decided to kill two birds with one stone. It would probably have worked out better for all involved if she'd been cast as a character other than Colleen (maybe some relative of Cane's or something) but by the end of her run I thought she'd done a pretty decent job of making Colleen her own (especially after Brad's death. Certainly stronger than Khalil's Lily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 She didn't actually want out - MAB fired her out of spite against LML. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 I have no problem with MAB firing TS since she was dire, but why the f' did she have to kill off Colleen in such a "permanent" way? Wait, was this Australian racism? Because even today that is hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted February 27, 2013 Author Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 I was watching when Summer was aged it was just last year! They said she 15 when they aged her. Then by fall she was driving and was 16 and then with her recent birthday in December she was said to have turned 17. Now all of a sudden she's 18.

Members #1_Bitch_Boy Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 My lord, this show has become boring since Jill Farren Phelps has taken over! I mean like on a CSPAN level of boring! I actually turned the TV set completely off halfway through the show and was far more entertained by the silence in the room.

Members y&r_fan Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 Has Darnell Williams signed a contract with AMC? I hope not - I want more Sarge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 I thought Williams was gone. I wish they would do something more with Christine than have her be all talk no action so far about this civil suit with Phyllis. Does Phyllis even know yet about that kiss with Nick which Phyllis assumed to be Sharon? Lauren and Carmine are hot. So far under JFP and Griffin I really can't complain too much, probably my biggest complaint is that while what their are airing now is miles better the show doesn't have the Y&R feel to it. I can't describe it. Heh I remember that too but hey look how Sursok(use to nickname her "suresucks") has had success after the role? The writing was bad and she flopped early on and then just lingered on without being given a second chance at all. Overall though Forsenca and Khalil were acceptable as the teen Colleen and Lily and while Leon and Sherwood were their maturing counterparts. By the time Sursok proved capable it was too late. And I think the TS hate partially fueled the destruction and embarrassment of Colleen in her final months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 Hate to double post but one more thing is I never watched GH so I don't fully understand the Steve Burton hate but I think he's been ok as Dylan so far. From a longtime Y&R viewer perspective the role is pretty simple, another spoiler for Nick and Sharon and it could have been easily filled by another name star whether it be Paul Anthony Stewart or Austin Peck(god can you imagine).

Members full hearts Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 No, Phyllis doesn't know that it was Christine who was kissing Nick that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 But that's the thing - the Sursok hate had died down a lot by the time Colleen was humiliated and killed. Fans were starting to accept her when she was feuding with Victor after Brad's death and reconnecting with JT. And may it never be spoken of again.

Members Antoyne Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 I don't remember any acceptance around these parts. Her scenes against Eric Braeden were laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted February 27, 2013 Members Share Posted February 27, 2013 Well not so much around these parts. But I find the SON concensus quite often goes against the general concensus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
