Nick, Sharon and Phyllis still look pretty young to me, which is why I think it was a huge mistake to give them multiple adult children at this point.

In recent years Y&R with an exception or two, has an aversion of casting tween/teen actors. There's also a portion of the Y&R fandom that don't want actors in that age cast as well. I thought tween/teen actors was one of the few bright spots of the last couple of years of ATWT and OLTL.

I agree with Summer being SORASed too fast. She's only 3 years older than Faith. Reed should be SORAS to at least 12-15 years old. Nick and Sharon were going to have adult children anyway because they had their kids when they were young.

I have to say, the fact that Camryn Grimes is such a success with this Mariah character just highlights how stupid it was to kill off Cassie and how short sighted that story eventually was.

Yes, Mariah is completely different from Cassie and has probably been shoehorned in with some bad storytelling, but she's filling in a void for the Newman's that's been missing for several years. She's made Nick, Sharon, and even Victor somewhat watchable again. I don't know how much of that is down to Grimes or down the character, though.

Jess seems to have dyed her hair as well, and thank god, it makes her look a little younger.

Sharon needs a new do..Jill's hair with the bangs is flawless..Bangs always make a woman look younger..Sharon please change that stringy no style hair.

I've been trying really hard to enjoy this show now that Gina Tognoni is on (as I will always be a fan from her OL days) but it's tough! I enjoy Phyllis and her fiery side and I think GT has good chemistry with JM and PB. She's a rare high point for me though.

I'm glad Ashley is back. I find myself oddly liking Summer and Austin which I never thought would happen.

But:

The Neil/Hilary/Devon story is dragging on way too long. I've gotten so I just don't care anymore.

Jack and Kelly I will never understand other than they were trying to find a spot for Cady but this character is not a good fit.

I see that they are trying to rewrite Stitch so that he is a good guy but I wish they'd get rid of his whole family instead! What is their purpose?

The new Billy I find annoying and can't wait for Adam to come back for Chelsea!

Abby is the most annoying character in tv history..well...maybe not most...but close.

Jill should be on more...without Colin.

Abby is supposed to be small and cute..this is the way she was written..this

Abby is tall and annoying but not in a good way the way Marcy portrayed her and folks THIS Abby is wearing the clothes designed for Marcy and they barely cover her butt. Jack needs to tell Phyllis about Kelly..cannot wait for the rath of Phyllis.

I like Devon storyline because it's about him, & he can carry it.

If they don't want to keep hiring color guys for vanilla Lily, they better find away to keep Tyler. Almost with Tyler doesn't count as her dating a black man. I mean Tyler didn't even get a chance to do what Billy and her did. Kevin, (2)Daniel, (2)Cane, and Billy.

I think they aged all these kids too fast. Especially Kyle & Abby they suppose to be 14 or something. Adam should be at least in his early twenties.

And now TIIC have you right where they want you! Hevon will be served up to the fans once the viewers are long past caring. I read on Twitter that Devon suggest they continue the affair? That's just sleazy. This young beautiful vibrant pairing destroyed - the power of Neil/KSJ! You want a promising AA female destroyed, throw her directly into KSJ's orbit (VR was too good to be wiped out by him). Hillary is trash, and there's not one rootable person in this mess, and once again, viewers rooting for a young black couple get the shaft!

Hevon was not supposed to be popular and HIllary was not supposed to take the viewers' attention away from the white "leads", Chelsea, Victoria, Avery, etc. Devon will go back to being on twice a month with a love interest who shows up about 4 times a year!

And look, Khalil gets another non black love interest? She's probably moist as !@#$%^&*] right now!

While I do think that Lily and Joe will be a thing. I don't think that it is going to be anything long term. Lily will sleep with him and break up her marriage but his eyes will be firmly planted on one of the white female leads that TPTB care about.

I don't think them girls have anything to do with it. It's not like Hilary is playing in their story lines. I think it have something to do with a non black actress, who wanted Hilary to stop outshining her. & plus she want Devon to go back to be the co star in her storyline. These clowns in charge keep listening to her.

Don't get me started on how moist she get when she sees pale skinned white boys.

She doesn't need to be in their stories, but there is no way YR would be happy when Hillary is the name coming out of the viewers' mouths! When has Lily ever been THIS popular? NEVER!

Lily was popular under a different actress. Just like CK didn't like the praises that actress was getting when she played Lily. I'm sure she doesn't like Hilary actress neither for getting the same amount of praises. Especially when some posters was like she should have came on as Lily.

This is not true. Mishael and Christel hang out alot off set. I would think that Christel would be happy for Bryton, whom she is very close to, is getting airtime and story. It is long overdue.

Smile in your face them back stabbers. & what that suppose to mean they hang out. Mishael still was out shining her. Until they try to give CKLily a backbone.
