Y&R: January 2014 Discussion Thread

Kyle would be better in that triangle then Jack. I like Jack, he's one of my favorites but I find the idea of him in a triangle with Hilary and Devon weird.

[ajsp35801]

My first option would be Noah. I would prefer if she became an honorary abbot so that she would have someone to care about her regardless to whom she is paired. No romantic entanglements with them at all.

Besides, if this became a full blown triangle, Jack will look desperate battling Devon for a young woman's affections...unless it remained unrequited and he only sees her as a friend....or they have Devon chasing her while she is with Jack and Jack doesn't know. I would not want any confrontations about Hilary between Jack and Devon. That could be disastrous for everyone involved.

Am I the only one who noticed how quickly SBu grabbed that sheet that was falling off his chest today as Dylan and Avery lay in bed.

I thought they were very sweet...kinda hot with the way he was touching her leg. If only I gave a darn about either character.

I loved Hilary fixing Jack's tie. I heard Feb sweeps spoilers say

I do like Hevon. I loved princess Lily being all pissy about everyone liking Hilary's idea. Then she bitched out Cane. Feb sweeps also say

Geez, BM was terrible all throughout yesterday's eppy. Thank goodness he and MM are leaving cause otherwise this mess would drag on until the summer atleast.

I could be reaching but

I could be interested in Jack with Watros or with Hilary. But they have to actually take a pairing seriously, and they haven't with Jack in forever, unless it was Phyllis. Peter Bergman is unbelievably talented and he deserves something solid with real investment from the writers. But I always get the vibe this show hasn't been invested in Jack in at least five or six years. He's the eternal noble loser.

[DRW50]

Bergman has become, or maybe always been and I never cared until recent years, so very asexual and weak. It's going to be tough for me to know why Hilary would have an interest in him.

[Taiah]

Yeah...

I didn't see the sweeps article and hate going off of someone else's write up so

[ChitHappens]

The only way to write the Baldwins is OUT!

Spoon Island! That's it. All I could think was MetroCourt and Haunted Star. Though I do remember one gala on the Haunted Star under JFP when LW was just starting out as Carly. It was a big casino gala for charidee with everybody (including sports-bra and string-vest-loving Sam) in evening gowns. This was the night that Carly and Jax took off and they hooked up.

Anyhoo -- my point is, GH would sometimes throw these charity galas nobody remembers what for (mostly as a precursor to another Mob WAR! or GH EXPLODES!!! promo) and all the while JFP was saying that GH no longer had the money to stage a Nurse's Ball. Kind of like when she got rid of most of Y&R's gorgeous background music, saying that they could no longer afford it, and then replaced it with a lot of bland, generic, newly recorded music.

[Cat]

Yep. I hate to say it because I love seeing Gloria on my screen recently, but Kevin, Michael, Fen and Lauren could all go tomorrow and I wouldn't care. I love Tracey Bregman but her screeching in the police station have been so awful... I had to sit down and take an aspirin. And I know TEB is a better actress than this.

[PJA]

The character of Kevin hasn't worked since Jana was killed off, and this Carmine storyline has trashed the characters of Lauren and Michael The fact that Laruen fell in Carmine's bed so fast was purely plot driven..nothing character driven about it. Fen IMO has been the most interesting character in the family as of late.
