April 21-25, 2014: Another New Low For Y&R in Women 18-49 Viewers

I will give 4 examples off of the top of my head to illustrate the sucky writing:

1- Abby and Tyler's stupid conversation in the park about his previous activities in Los Angeles with Mariah. The writer of those scenes is clueless about writing for a soap and ruined that relationship for the viewers at that point.

2- Nick's dialogue to Sharon when he and Sharon were alone in the tack house with Mariah. The writer of those lines is apparently trying to reinvent a perfectly fine wheel and is clueless about writing for a soap. JM deserves an award for the immense restraint he surely had to exhibit.

3- Neil's dialogue to Devon after his boink with Hillary. That writer is clueless about writing for a soap and is very insulting to veteran actor KSG.

4- JFP was laughing in an interview about Ray Wise's upcoming scenes with Victor. Yeah, it's just so darn funny that a serial child molester that she brought back to the canvas TWICE in one year is going to make eye contact with Victor by laying his head on Victor's desk. Freaking hilarious. Just what I want to spend an hour of my day watching.

It is a shame what has been done and continues to be done to Y&R. As if what MAB did wasn't bad enough. Before long, our beloved Y&R actors and actresses won't even give a damn anymore and will give up trying to make sense of the sh_ _ they're given and will start phoning it in. That will be the end of Y&R and JFP, et al, will have NO ONE to blame but herself. Just like MAB who WOULD. NOT. LISTEN. This is JFP's version of raping and pillaging Y&R - something she said she would not do - with less than mediocre writing and taboo SLs.

Re: "She's (Jean) a seasoned vet with tons of experience. 22 consecutive years in the biz is a long time and an Emmy winner."

Then she should absolutely know better by now and not need more time than she's already had (since December).

    • The counts seem small even for B&B. Thanks for posting!
    • Sooo Nick is inviting Sharon to France for this Dumas party thing. The same place they reconnected years ago during the Shick/Phick years. I wonder if it’s going to be on location? I’m going to assume not. I’m sure Y&R doesn’t have that kind of budget anymore. 
    • Agree. The catfights at the clothing store alone...lol.   That's how I feel about Teresa as well. Cheryl I feel seems to blend much better with Sara's breakdowns, but I definitely love her dialogue no matter who she is with.  They also forget replies about missing plot points and theories about why they might be missing so...   YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS   Oh how that scene lives rent free in my head and when it pops up online I will always watch. 
    • Episode #62 Thurs May 29 US, Dani arrived at the bar at closing time and used her Dupree name to request that the bartender serve her even though it was past closing time.  Then Doug walked in and Dani convinced the bartender to serve him too.  They were both drowning their sorrows, and the scene switched to Vanessa/Joey having sex on the card table. Then no followup.  Did Dani and Doug talk? Or... ? Where did Doug go? When the next episode started, it was the next day and Dani was meeting with Pamela, and Pamela arranged for some hot guy to date Dani, but Dani wasn't interested. 
    • So I'm seeing cuz the catch-up has been brutal. All I can do (besides look at fashion) is smh. 
    • Wow. What an episode. Deidre truly broke my heart today. Not much else to say. Just an incredible love story ending.    I’m amazed they couldn’t or didn’t try go get either Claire actress while both of her grandfathers are on death’s door. Hope sensing John had passed was a nice heartbreaking touch. The rest of the week is going to be so hard.
    • -- The fashions are at least something to talk about, because we're definitely not getting any story. I mean, this stuff is dreadful. -- I do like how they're dressing Nikki. Its hugely different from before, but I'll take it. -- At least she doesn't look like Ashley, who's dressed like a clinically-depressed Cruella DeVille. -- Nick without a jacket just looks odd. -- I see Mark Grossman again gained about 15 lbs. when he was away on vacation. The sharp cheekbones are gone and the double chin is back. Hate to be mean, but I hope he loses the weight. -- All that talk about all Claire did to plan that "party." Excuse me? There's nothing go on, and outside of some tacky Happy Birthday signage and tablecloths from Kohls, I don't know what they're talking about.
