WLS on Y&R: Time for Victoria Rowell to Return as Drucilla

Wow. We see that completely differently. I see Jack as a dog who has thrown away one marriage and woman after the next. How many times has Jack been married for literally two weeks and then at the first sign of trouble he dumps the woman he claims to love? He was all ready to screw Kelly and leave her the second Phyllis woke up. He only stopped because Summer caught him first. Really, he disgusts me.

I guess I thought KSJ was a little older and that DG and JM were a little younger, but even still, on the show they seem like a generation younger than Neil. Jack has to be 55.

DG is 15 years older than CK, would you want them to break up Lane because of the difference?

Someone on Twitter asked VR why don't she go to Oprah and try to get som of her projects on OWN. She said that Oprah is in bed with CBS/Sony and she said that she did pitch a project to Oprah and she said no. VR also said that Oprah had her removed from a movie that she was producing.

Yes. Please break up Lane. I never liked the pairing specifically because of the age difference.

I am not at all surprised by Oprah. She has steered clear of controversial people and anything race related other than her own feel good story of success.

Looking at The Have's And Half Not's, she could've put any old turd together and it would've done well on OWN. That audience wants soaps. I also think the Prospect Park reboots would've been big hits if aired in primetime on OWN. But it's a shame nobody has turned he memoir into a tv movie. I think that story would be GREAT as a tv movie or mini-series, even a film. Unfortunately, the only black movies people want to make are either slapstick comedies or slave films. They don't want to see a success story like The Women Who Raised Me.

No one would ever, or should ever hire VR. She's toxic. Imagine hiring her and then she bitches you out on twitter ad nauseum. She goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on about how there has never been a black Executive Producer of Y&R, but, when questioned, she cannot name a black executive producer who wanted the job. She cannot name a qualified black director. She cannot name anyone. She just bitches. That's all she's got.

    • The thing with Martin (for me) is that he should have been Anita and Vernon's kid. I honestly think he would have been fine being an older or younger brother to Dani and Nicole. It also would have made his relationship and kids feel more realistic. A handsome salt and pepper late 40s/early 50s congressman who settled down and adopted kids to fit an image for politics. Not that he didn't want this lifestyle but it is what he needed to do to get ahead. Also, we don't often get older characters playing LGBT roles not just on daytime but across most media. It would have been a refreshing take. As an alternative, Sam and Ty could have been Martin's kids from an earlier marriage a la the NJ governor that was outed. We could have also seen parallels between Vernon and Anita thinking back to how they handled Martin coming out compared to the way they accepted Chelsea.  As for Martin being Nicole and Ted's kid, I do wish in this case he was not tied to a marriage and kids, so that he could date and sleep around like any other character on a soap.  Yeah, I didn't get it...but what I did get is that girl is a bit crazy like her mama.  Vanessa and Joey talking about the poker table...get these people off my screen.

    • Unpopular opinion, but I didn't think the show should have reunited Billy/Vanessa at all until the final stretch of the show. When watching the 1989 episodes when both Vanessa and Billy return after being off the show... I liked that Vanessa had moved on from him and that the show was hinting at her wanting to reunite with her first love Ross while looking down at Nadine for being the one Ross was dating.  And I loved the twist where Billy and Nadine teamed up to keep Vanessa/Ross apart.   This was an interesting concept that sadly the writers dropped with the show deciding to make Vanessa pine over Billy between 1990 and 1993 when they finally reunited.   To me, Vanessa pining over Billy seemed out of character. At least once Billy was carted off to prison in 1994... she and Billy divorced and stayed divorced until the final months when they finally found their way back together.  During the years when they were divorced, I liked that they had maintained a friendship and connection.. with viewers (like my late mom) wondering if they would ever decide to make it work again. I wish the show had tried that with Josh/Reva because by the time of the final episode when they rode off into the sunset, I didn't care because we'd been through the make up and break ups between them for over 10+ years by that point.
    • I break down the primetime soap era (start of Dallas to end of Knots Landing) as  Up to Spring 1982: Building the foundation. Fall 1982-Spring 1985: Peak. Fall 1985-Spring 1988: Tanking. Fall 1988 onward: Off the rails plus budget mode. Of course individual shows vary and I've broken down each show in their threads.
    • I’m ready for Portia and Curtis to divorce and get it over with. Portia cheating with Isaiah would make for a fun love quadrangle with Jordan.

    • They didn't need to have some slutty gay dude as their representation. Just a 'normal' guy getting involved with another guy or two (or three). Just like the straight characters. Thinking about it, they missed the boat by not having a few other single charcters at the beginning. Maybe Naomi or Ashley could be shown meeting Derek/Jacob and  we could follow their romance. Too many characters were coupled up at the start. As a tattoo hater I was surprised to see Tomas so inked. Don't find it attractive or sexy. I'm surprised an actor would do that as it's definitely a statement and may not be appropriate for some roles. Suppose they can cover if necessary. I didn't buy Kat being all girly and then paying off Darius to get into Eva's room. Way too cliche. She should have just come along when the housekeeping was leaving and breezed in saying it was her room. And her smug looks in the hotel room and 'Now I've got you!!' talks to herself at Orphey Gene's...no.  
    • Omg I was so annoyed. Like girl calm down. Coming on way too strong. Omg I forgot about this
