They need to continue trying because Victoria doesn't look good with any of them

Ditto. I'm loving Billy mixing it up with Chelsea and Chloe and in that story. I'm genuinely shocked because I've never liked David Tom in anything (and I still wish he would close his mouth when he's not talking, instead of doing that lower lip jut thing like he's got a sever underbite).

I'm still convinced Y&R are deliberately making Stitch look bad in order to make Victoria look good with DT's take on Billy.

This is exactly what is happening. The only way to make DT's Billy rootworthy is to throw Stitch so far under the bus. He will stalk Victoria very soon. Might even attempt to kill her so that she can be rescued by Billy. It's the only way...

When dull plain Camryn Grimes is the best thing on YR, we are approaching GH levels! That is scary as !@#$%^&*]!

Sharon got ECT trying to get rid of visions of Cassie and also because she didn't want to tell the truth about changing the paternity test for Summer. Meanwhile, her visions were real and it turns out that Victor hired a Cassie look alike to terrorize Sharon because he is obviously going through the late stages of dementia. Everyone knows what he did so he is being shunned. But they are coming around since Nick needs him to investigate Cassie and Abby needs him to squash Fake Cassie like a bug. I don't know why Nick is incapable of hiring someone himself but there it is. Oh, did I mention that Fake Cassie turned out to be Abby's fiancee's ex who was terrorizing them too. It's very convoluted but that typically happens with soap rewrites. Now Sharon wants to get to know fake Cassie (Mariah) and Nick is against it. It's a Cassie adoption redux also.

Leslie And Neil broke up because she didn't want to get married and she married someone whom she met online 2/3 weeks later. It was also a rewrite to soften the blow of the next story I am about to mention. They cast her husband months after this was mentioned so that tells you how invested they are NOT.

Devon was having his first onscreen romance with a promising new character, Hilary. However, writers couldn't resist having her lay in Neil's nasty rancid hair dye spotted, old spice smelling repugnant sheets like every other woman of color who comes to town. So that's ruined and I am PISSED ABOUT IT! But it could provide good soapy drama and if I know these writers, Devon will lay between her thighs before Christmas so...eh! Lily hates the chick so there is that, too.

Paul and Christine are trying to have a baby. They both have to be at least 50 but in soapland, it doesn't matter.

Victoria's mid 40's behind is having ANOTHER WTD story with the possibles being Idiot Billy and nobody random Stitch, who is quickly becoming a stalker. It's all so very lame. Pray, don't even trouble yourself.

Chelsea Lawson is Chelsea Lawson. I am pretty sure they are about to pair her with her rape Victim Billy all to fuel the flames for Adam's hand to finally get a face and return to her pissed off. Oh yeah, I don't think I mentioned that his hand has been stalking her via video cam installed in her house.

Chloe is in the middle of a stupid exit story where she has to steal Billy's frozen sperm to have his baby again. Mind you, when did Billy stop sleeping with any old woman to make himself feel better about a bad situation. Oh that's right, he can only turn to Chelsea because her uterus, and vagina too. I suppose, is golden.

Jack had embarked in his latest greatest love with kelly, another newbie nobody that helped end Victoria and Billy's marriage. I expect it to flop like all his pairings.

Avery has a cooking show with some sort of....stalker. Nothing else to say there. Dylan is around.

Jill is still trying to figure out the music box. She has that dead beat nobody Colin around as a love interest. Why JW, just why?!

There is some kind of cult operating covertly but the story has never picked up and I have no faith that it ever will.

There is in a nutshell.

Oh, and no one in the Baldwin clan, or baldwin related besides Chelsea and Jill, has a story. Kevin is chasing behind Chloe but I don't call that a story.

Thank you so much! The show sounds terrible at the moment.

This is deifnitely happening. They are pushing a serious agenda.

Remember two weeks (?) ago when Victoria insta-left town and Ben arrived at her place, he pushed Billy out of the door to play with Johnnie. WTF!? This was pretty OOC although one could argue that we don't know Ben yet because of his big SECRET (LOL @ Cheap) with Kelly.An

And I might be in the mnority but I don't hate the current stories - well besides Vickie's pregnancy. The bigger problem is that the plotting is all over the place; assuming this is the co-head/associate head writer's job, they should be all fired because the show is just "off". The only one doing a decent job as of the late is he or she who is picking the flashbacks. They are gold - and not the typical stuff you get to see usually.

Victoria was horrible today.

Esther finally doing something for her daughter. They didn't forget she's her mother. I even didn't mind the pre-non-intervention.

DT's Billy is gaining ground to me being a fan again.

Tired of Stitch and Kelly's secret. Just say it already! [i hope CW's show fails and she returns. I hate the way they are writing her now].

And I'm a fan of Cady McClain!

I just saw eppy 05/16/2014. I really like Devon & Hilary. If TPTB let them get busy. It's going to be real good. I can see the passion, regret, & heat.

The writers obviously have no idea who they want Kelly Andrews to be. Her personality changes daily, and Cady isn't even on contract, so they could drop her if the reception is bad.

Wait. So she is not even on contract?!?!?! Despite being creatively weak, JFP seems very business saavy. She seems to withold contracts until she knows how fans will take to you. I guess she learned from the contract she gave AC and RW early in her tenure.
