Or maybe Barton will tuck in his member and see for himself why Leslie is so fond of the guy.

Again, Y&R, I am up for anything!

If he tucks, it won't be for Neil. KSJ would never allow that.

I keep hearing Y&R might go there with Kevin, don't know how much is true

They should. But I doubt it. I thought CG was destined for a pairing with him. But then maybe not now that it looks like Mariah is Sharon's daughter.

I rarely watch this show but I did catch some of Wednesday (couldn't make it though the entire episode). It never ceases to amaze me what a bad actress CK is - she still emotes like a newbie in her first week. Unbelievable!

Obviously Neil is more captivated by the late-breaking news on CNN than the conversation going on right in front of him. Oh, Neil!

Yikes, not the blindness storyline. Every time a show's stories are sinking someone goes blind. The last two weeks on Y&R feel like someone from the network came in and is tinkering with the bland stories and making them worse. Is Bloom back in the writers' room?!

Was I supposed to be excited to see Courtney Botox, the cop, sad over seeing the other non-entity, detective whatever, on a date in yesterday's episode. There have been new lows in story direction each day these last few weeks.

Nancy Curlee....come out of hiding in North Carolina. Only you can save this dreck.

Nancy Curlee, Claire Labine, Kay Alden--writers who don't manipulate characters by superimposing hack plots on them, but tell emotionally wrenching stories born from the characters' histories. Jean and Shelley (and Jill): this is the best you can do??? How do the three of you keep jobs in the industry? Y&R has become such a laughable generic soap under these three. Neil going blind is such a clique soap staple. Yawn.

If they do, Kevin & Det Harding should have hate sex

Actually Gina put her own tape at y and r. Gina is a great actress who auditioned and won the part. Let's give her more time before. Let's remember Michelle left the show it was her choice. Cady is horrible as Kelly she's a needy mess of a character. She's so miscast in this part.

Don't see this recast (Gina T.) working either. Ditto: Cady and NuBilly (horrible recasting!!!!) This show lurches from one bad decision to another. It needs a strong EP who understands what a unique soap Y&R is (calling Ed Scott) and an equally strong head writer (calling Kay Alden, Nancy Curlee, or Claire Labine) who writes stories that touch the heart. Also, Michelle Stafford is so closely identified with Phyllis, the show should have waited years to recast with someone else (who knows, maybe by then JFP and her minions Jean and Shelley will be history, and Michelle would come back to the show if approached).

I still vote for my Alden/Broderick/Curlee (or Alden/Curlee/Trent Jones...or even Curlee/Stephen Demorest/Jones) triumvirate.

That would be spectacular, where would that leave the other two that need writers

Curlee and Demorest would be brilliant head writers. Alden is retired. Broderick doesn't want to head write. I don't think Curlee would work with Jill although I received a Facebook letter from Curlee when GL went off the air and she said she had stayed in soaps a while after GL, and been about to join GH's writing team, but things fell through or she got pregnant again. She was well regarded in the industry but she chose to raise her daughters in NC. She sent me a wonderful letter.

Haven't watched in forever caught the episode where Sharon visited Cassie's grave. Great flashback and Sharon Case looked beautiful. That's all really.

I'll take any of these as long as Curlee or Alden are head of the team.
