Y&R: August 2014 Discussion Thread

Sean Carrigan has to go. That is all.

No, wait. Cady McClain needs to go as well. Both are irrelevant as hell.

I'm looking forward to the first episodes where Mariah and Sharon are together was mother/daughter. SC & CG will deliver.

I realize this is an unpopular opinion, but I like the location shots. I think that's probably the one positive addition JFP has made to this show.

[London]

Perfect.

This dude always creeps me out with many of his roles. I'm still not 100% sold on Melissa Ordway as Abby.

[Khan]

Neither am I, London.

Pardon me, but when did Phyllis become this beacon of light in Jack's life?

Just think, Carrigan is about to embark on a story in which he will have 3 female love interests. One in each age group and all related. O_O

[Khan]

Why? Who knows? Oedipus had an easier time figuring out the riddle of the Sphinx.

[cassadine1991]

Too bad the beginning of the storyline wasn't like Mitch's return c. 2002-2003

[rhinohide]

Kill me now.

[rhinohide]

And just like that. I'm back to hating Sharon.

Wow was that Tyler today? For all of the hype when he came on board, I figured he was destined to recurring w/ Leslie!

The best thing they could do with his character would be to get him away from Abby.

Tyler-Mariah-Kevin.....write out Stitch, Abby, Noah and Courtney...[use a NuAbby{that can act}, Noah and Courtney for holidays and big family events].

Kill Cane [onscreen in a blaze of bullets, in Lily's arms] and throw Lily into Tyler's orbit.

Traci needs a love interest. I also think they should bring in Nina for Neil. Their close to forty year friendship[iRL] from BNB to Y&R shows they have an easiness between them. She could give him a "Stop pretending and get some help!"rant!

KL never ages, great genes in her family!

Can't believe we were blessed w/ so much Jill this week. Keep that up JFP!

I read that RW DM's some folks on twitter saying that today was his last day on Y&R. Not sure how true that is. But I wouldn't be surprised. I think that the Michelson's are done as full characters. AC is recurring and married off to a day player. She is an attorney only now and her being an Assistant DA means that she will just be the evil foe to Avery and Michael trying to defend the innocent of Genoa City.

I suspect that Hilary will get a bio mother or sister that they will throw at Neil next. If they do go this route, I hope the actress is at least over 45.

Hunter King isn't as big of a problem to me as Melissa Ordway. Honestly, if one of them had to go, I'd nominate the latter.

Back in the day, Bill Bell might have kept us waiting another two weeks before reuniting Mariah with Nick and Sharon in that storage shed. Which might have been excruciating, depending on how you look at it. Regardless, I had the feeling that her rescue today was seriously rushed.

[ajsp35801]

Waiting builds anticipation and allows the audience to develop fear for the captive. This was way too soon. At least let the cops look for her for a week or two.

Due to the preemptions next week for US Open Tennis, I'm glad that they reunited Sharon, Nick and Mariah. I think they wanted something to happen before the break.
