I already didn't like Neslie but him calling her kiddo and young lady is so gross. He does sound like her father. Leslie needs to go sit with Noah, Alex, and Mason. Darn shame her only option is Neil.

I think they are trying to keep KSJ happy by having him paired with a younger love interest. Even though it's gross for the viewers.

The Winters always rather boring. A black Y&R mini-soap with four characters in an endless quadrangle for almost twenty years. But nobody cared because we liked this group.

Dru's death is not the only problem. Neil has been involved in endless failed relationships (Why wasn't he never paired with Phyllis or Sharon? Everyone else was - however I like him with Leslie -who should have been cast as Lily but that's another story), Lily has been trapped in an untouchable marriage with a much older man and two unneeded kids and Devon (who is for no reason a Chancellor now) has no personality or real romance. As a matter of fact Devon is the only young man ever on a soap that has been dating a young girl for years with no story at all. They just appear together from time to time to remind us that he is not in a convent. Come on, gay soap characters have more interesting lives than Devon.

I thought Neil/Sharon had nice chemistry. Could have been interesting if Dru ever came back. He hardly interacts with Nick, Victoria, or Sharon anymore.

Why does every episode have to end with Adam and Sharon having sex???? closedeyes.jpg

I don't know. They are awful.

Neil/Leslie do nothing for me. Blah.

hey Y&R thread, I came across this photo in an article on BD's new biography. Thought people might like it because it is so dramatically different from the usual Dickson look

EEeeeee! I haven't gotten to watch Y&R in a couple weeks and I'm getting all my faves (save Jill) today!

LOVING Avery telling Phyllis that she and Nick are engaged. Also love that Phyllis is acting like.....Phyllis again!

LOVING that Sharon is still a little cray-cray! How many messages does it take before Sharon stops thinking of her vagina and remembers her DAUGHTER? That was presumed DEAD. Because of the guy that she was about to take her panties off for? God I LOVE this woman. She's such a mess and Sharon+a messy life= An entertaining Sharon!

I actually really like Steve Burton on this show and think he fits right in. I like Dylan McEvoy!

My only wish is that Lauren were on trying to resist Carmine's advances today, but the rest I'll take.

I'm watching LIVE on SoapNet, but one last thing- how nice to see GhostJohn coming to rain on Jack's parade today. Good stuff!

Blech, and Stafford just ruined it by making those bouncing ball noises. God, she is so effing insufferable! I'm really glad that JFP saw the same thing in Jessica Collins' Avery that I saw from jump- potential! Let's just hope they keep her quirks intact because that's what made me fall in love with her in the first place.

I hate Avery but Phyllis was so annoying getting in her face like that. Phyllis always does that when she goes off on somebody. Just gets in their personal space.

And yells about how they wish they were her. She does the same thing to Cricket.

Is this going the be the end of every episode from now on?!?!?! closedeyes.jpg (Adam and Sharon if you were wondering who I meant)

Could someone please tell Neil to take his big hand off of Leslie's neck when he is standing next to her. His hand looks like a restraining collar.

I hate Jack with Phyllis, hate. I don't even understand why he is so desperately pursuing her after how she betrayed him with Nick. And why is Jack not extremely wary of her lingering feelings for Nick? Ideally, they should cast a new love interest for Jack, but apparently is not happening. Phyllis should go comfort Micheal as his marriage falls apart and they can get involved again.

 

I agree. I like their scenes together, the friendly chemistry, but romantic love? Not feeling it at all. I don't know whether this is Michelle Stafford deliberately projecting her dislike for this pairing, or whether it is Peter Bergman's now-legendary inability to conjure up the laddish sexual chemistry needed for the character of Jack. But it's not happening -- and I don't think it would work with CLB, either.

MS did perk up in that scene with Avery though. What a raging bitch Phyllis is, but at least she has made Nick-Avery interesting for the first time ever. I love Avery but she and Nick are like watching paint dry. Dylan and Chelsea are about the same.

This was a better episode than Monday's which actually made me want to gouge my eyes out in boredom. I blame Ambien Heinle and Sominex Miller, personally. I'm not saying I want Hogan Sheffer-type ridiculousness or a slo-mo shootout at Crimson Lights, but Y&R needs just a bit more oomph to go with some admirable character-driven writing it has been doing lately (Lauren, Michael, etc).

Kyle is a giant now. Fenn better leave Summer alone since Kyle is almost a foot taller then him. He'd be down in one swipe.

I feel like part of Phack's lack of chemistry in the romance department is MS deliberately tanking the pairing. She only likes to be paired with younger guys.

  • Member

The pure hatred that Phyllis has for Avery makes her lose all common sense. How could she not see that Summer played her like a fool?
