Members YRBB Posted January 5, 2014 Author Members Share Posted January 5, 2014 I can't deal with those Nick/Sharon voiceovers. They could not have been worse or more unnecessary. The actors could have communicated their thoughts just by the looks & it would have made Nick's slip of the tongue more unexpected. Every new person on the show is connected to every other new person! Stitch & Kelly! Chavez & Mopeney! It says a lot about the state of a show when they need to retcon hundreds of relationships just to create some drama. What's next? Hilary is Neil's long lost daughter?

Members bluejeanbaby3 Posted January 5, 2014 Members Share Posted January 5, 2014 BetterForgotten, in the Dec. Y&R thread you asked about Keith Dennison, Trisha and Megan's dad. He and Jill dated for a while. Not long after they broke up, he had some sort of medical incident and went into a coma. I think Trisha then tried to kill him but she was unsuccessful.

Members ajsp35801 Posted January 5, 2014 Members Share Posted January 5, 2014 I want to love Tyler and Abby. I truly do. But I can't help but feel she brings him down. If I hear him waxing poetic about his love for her after she has talked to him like crap over nothing over more time, I will be forced to FF them.

Members DeeeDee Posted January 5, 2014 Members Share Posted January 5, 2014 Keith & Jill broke up long before his medical problems. Tricia intended to smother him until she realized he was unresponsive (he had a stroke & was rushed to the hospital) which is how Tricia eventually ended up living with Victor at the penthouse.

Members ajsp35801 Posted January 5, 2014 Members Share Posted January 5, 2014 Wasn't Hilary just beginning then? But I don't think they would have ever gone there with them because I still think she was brought on for Devon. I appreciate JFP keeping Tyler on despite plans being initial plans being derailed. Normally for black characters are sent packing when things changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted January 5, 2014 Members Share Posted January 5, 2014 I am convinced about Chloe and Kevin...but not Dylan. Before he even aired, the rumor was that he was going to be Nikki's son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted January 5, 2014 Members Share Posted January 5, 2014 They probably didn't think JM could pull it off with just looks. Lots of people speculated that Hilary was Neil's kid...or Malcolm's. Hopefully, she won't be neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted January 6, 2014 Members Share Posted January 6, 2014 There were also rumors that Dylan was going to be Sharon's brother. I do think that the Nikki's son thing was added in as the relationship with Chelsea was not working and they need something for him to do. This is what happens when they hire someone who has no place on the canvas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted January 6, 2014 Members Share Posted January 6, 2014 I cannot remember the timing with Hilary. I do know that the Tyler/Abby thing came out of nowhere. I don't think that Hilary was brought in for Devon. I think she was brought in for Cane to have someone when Lily got involved with Tyler since they ripped Chelsea away from Cane and gave her to Dylan. Regarding Lily: .

Members ajsp35801 Posted January 6, 2014 Members Share Posted January 6, 2014 I don't think they were ever going to go all the way with Tyler and Lily while she was married to Cane. At first I did, but not anymore. If anything, cane was going to cheat on her with Hilary first causing their split....and I think at the end of the day, Hilary was still going to be with Devon and cane was going to be used elsewhere on canvas. If not, I commend JFP once again for keeping an AA character and finding a place for them instead of sending them on their way like MAB did time and time again.

Members PJA Posted January 6, 2014 Members Share Posted January 6, 2014 She sent away Sarge and Harmony time she got on the show. And Sophia as well since we never see this supposedly recurring character. And now Roxy as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted January 6, 2014 Members Share Posted January 6, 2014 And she should have! I love black characters on Daytime more than the next person, but there was no thought put into those 2 characters at all. Yarmony was an embarrassment to the great Debbie Morgan. I'd rather watch her on old eppies of What's happening and Good Times than to watch that ghetto mess Mabby created. It was awful and insulting!

Members PJA Posted January 6, 2014 Members Share Posted January 6, 2014 Whether she should have or not she's still gotten rid of at least 4 black characters but yet was praised for not doing so. I think Sophia, Sarge, and Roxy all had potential but were victims to bad writing or no writing at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted January 6, 2014 Members Share Posted January 6, 2014 I am surprised that Tyler and Hilary are still around, but that could be Sony not JFP. I find it hard to believe that they would ever bring in a love interest for Devon who has been ignored for years. I think that after JG left and they decided to keep Hilary, they decided that Devon was the logical place to put her. The new regime seems to be all about couples and unable to conceptualize writing a triangle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted January 6, 2014 Members Share Posted January 6, 2014 Perhaps, but to me, Hillary, Devon, Leslie and Mason have better potential and they are gradually connecting them to the canvas, especially Hillary. It's a matter of opinion, but at least Jill didn't replace them with white characters. They are involved in stories and not just the "black stories".
