Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 8, 2013 Members Share Posted May 8, 2013 Oh crap! How did I forget about them?! Yes! They need to return too! And as MoTheGreat mentioned, Tucker too! This better not be some insta-funeral or even worse no funeral (like they did my poor Nancy Hughes ). I want the entire episode, hell, the entire week devoted to the Duchess! She built the house that is Y&R!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 8, 2013 Members Share Posted May 8, 2013 While they're at it, Y&R also should dig up all the good, old clips with Kay and Jill. Even the ones with Brenda Dickson. You can't allow Kay's death to pass without acknowledging the feud that was, in many respects, Y&R's bread and butter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 8, 2013 Members Share Posted May 8, 2013 No Tucker please, they need to pretend that character never existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 8, 2013 Members Share Posted May 8, 2013 I agree. I never understood why soaps (or dramas in general) don't use the clips of previous actors when a role is recast when needed. It's still part of the character's history regardless the fact that the actors changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 8, 2013 Members Share Posted May 8, 2013 I always think of Jeanne as an example of when gods and goddesses walked among daytime soaps - flawed, but still towering above us, putting us under their spell. Jeanne just commanded a scene with sheer charisma and witchcraft, and she gave everything to scenes. She was an incredible actress but she was also an incredibly entertaining actress. She put on a show. She was fun, gutsy, heartbreaking. Addictive. She talked about scenes that made her uncomfortable, and how she played them anyway, because of trust in the writing. Few in soaps have that type of trust or care now. Katherine was an icon, but more importantly, she felt like a friend. A dirty joke on her lips and a knowing glance at the various grifters and phonies and nobodies in her wake. Katherine never felt like a plaster saint, even when the writing tried to make her one. Yet Katherine also had a heart. Even in her darkest moments. We got to see a true star in our homes for 40 years, and we got to see what was, along with MTS, Susan Flannery, and a few others, what I'd consider to be the best face for the writing of Bill Bell. She really did him proud. She did us proud too. I'll miss her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted May 8, 2013 Members Share Posted May 8, 2013 I'm positive that the show will acknowledge her death and her appearance on Y&R last Friday was pretty well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Chris B Posted May 8, 2013 Members Share Posted May 8, 2013 This is just the saddest news. She is an absolute legend and the biggest star Y&R ever made. I hope her death and legacy is handled the right way on the show. Just the worst news I could've read. I'm just glad she's at peace, had a wonderful life and gave us so much while she was here.

Members Winchester91 Posted May 8, 2013 Members Share Posted May 8, 2013 I appreciate the gracious way Corbin is handling all this. It must be tough losing a beloved mother. Here are some reactions from her castmates...1.21 gigawatts @michaelmuhney 20m She lived a long life. She kicked her fair share of asses. The world just got a little less feisty today. You'll be missed, Jeanne Cooper.Joshua Morrow @JoshuaMorrowYR 9m These hallowed halls will never be the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted May 8, 2013 Members Share Posted May 8, 2013 Katherine Chancellor and Jeanne Cooper were just always. there. when I was a kid. Just about every single single day. Victor Newman, Nikki, Paul, Jack, Jill -- and Miz Chancellor. Nothing says Y&R to me more than Rex putting the necklace on Kay. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJpr9PCDtOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
