Meow. Retract your claws. I wasn't minimizing your opinion. It was a joke. Purrrrrrrrrr.

FrankenCrap were Fronsian products as well. Your hatred of JFP and affection for Valentini is showing. And that's ok. I think GH is the biggest load of garbage on tv. Basically it's a vanity project. Loving Y&R. So we will agree to disagree.

First of all, when did Cady become a FOJ? She's never been on a show with JFP. Cady has only been on World Turns and AMC--two shows JFP has never been on.

And I'm hoping with a new actress in the role, they're able to turn Kelly around and make her a more dynamic character. I'd really want her to become a vixen because this show desperately needs one.

"My affection," right. I may not think he's the Prince of Darkness, but I do think FV gets plenty wrong. Does this mean I don't graduate to the loyalty oath portion of the exam?

You can like the show all you want, but it's not Y&R AFAIC. At its best moments it's a generic hodgepodge. It's just scut work, cosmetic changes to what MAB left in cinders to try and put it in some sort of cheap packaging, any packaging. And what Jill and her team were hired on to do was do a copy-paste of some elements of their ABC work, and so that's what the show looks like. I just don't care for it. Those aren't my claws, that's just a honest assessment of the show.

Dayum! Let's parse my words.

Y&R is as much Y&R as Gh is Gh. Neither is what they were in their glory days. At least Y&R Is building on the foundation Bell created. It's not transforming on the back of another show and installing a stable of warmed over, renamed characters from another show and creating a new core.

She's likely in charge of some things, but over and over people yell that any casting choice will be an FOJ and then they back away quietly when yet again that isn't the case. I'm not sure why it's still a thing at this point. Her hands are likely tied on a lot of these casting matters.

For about six months, before he was fired.

I like Cady. But a)she doesn't really treasure being tied down in the first place, and cool.png she doesn't project some kind of "let's have a hot, dirty affair" kind of vibe. Maybe she won't care how she's treated, because she knows from the get go that it's short-term (probably). But this undoubtedly is simply to wrap up story quick.

I notice some people think the Y&R is currently a Guza version of GH and a second rate ABC soap (could be the same thing) and GH now is RC's OLTL mixed in with worse elements of Passions. I do think the current state of Y&R is better than GH is though.
