Members detroitpiston Posted December 29, 2014 Members Share Posted December 29, 2014 Thats the problem, in those 11 years he's been in fail pairing after fail pairing, the only one that worked was Nia Peeples/Karen. Its time to put him out to pasture for a minute romance wise, and by a minute I mean at least a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted December 29, 2014 Members Share Posted December 29, 2014 TBH, I love Kristoff but I'd rather they just put Neil to pasture altogether. Without VR's Dru beside him, I feel like Neil has nothing to no longer offer unless it is a business story. Sadly, Y&R no longer does them so....

Members Evan Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 Justin Hartley is a great recast.......and this is coming from a huge MM fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 I accept that they will not bring VR back. I don't agree with the position but I accept it. The canvas could still use the character. I just don't see what they are getting at with this Phyllis and Neil interaction unless it is to have Phyllis hating on Hilary when the affair comes out. Why they need to Phyllis to play that role is beyond me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 This would be the perfect time for Neil to get his own company. But TPTB are not interested. They are content with having Newmans and Abbots having the only clout and power in that town. They gave Chancellor to Victor for goodness sake!

Members ajsp35801 Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 I liked him with Karen and "Harmony". Jack has also been in all these failed pairings but it doesn't seem to have hurt him at all with the viewers. Maybe because he has something else to do besides have a failed pairing.

Members Paul Raven Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 Well,the Williams family certainly got closure - they never mentioned Carl again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 Absolutely. I missed a lot his early scenes because it seemed like he wasn't on during the episodes I caught. However, I made of point of watching today and JH is awesome. I'm really glad they took their time for the recast and got it right, unlikely Billy. GT, I'm partial to her because I've loved her previous work, and she has more good moments than weak ones, but something is still off. Phyllis was quirky but always oozed sensuality because of Stafford. I'm not feeling the sexy part yet (and I know GT has it in her), but maybe that's because of Aunt Jack. I'd love for her to steam it up with someone in the younger set. (And please stop 'testing' GT with KSJ. Just no unless this paves the way for Dru to return and find Phyllis married to Neal, I could be OK with that!) Anyway, I'm sure GT will make the role her own eventually.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 Watching today's episode and are they chem-testing Nick & Sage? Because their scenes were painfully boring. I zipped through to get to the Adam/Jack scenes. I hope Sage and Nick aren't on the horizon, they are snooze city, population 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 Maybe, but even if they are it's bound to be short term. When he finds out she's basically hiding Adam that friendship or (whatever it is) will be toast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kenerly1 Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 Just an opinion and no need to freak but this actress was not believable as Connie on GH and I sure do not like her on Y&R especially with Nick...hope it is shortterm.

Members piperisthenewsookie Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 IKR? JH seems to be healing the great Y&R Adam divide; those who loved MM and those who hated him seem to like JH. I didn't get "chem test" from the Phyllis/Neil scenes. It looked like Phyllis was trying to be kind to Neil and get him to come back to Jabot and work. She was trying to be a friend to someone who was going thru a tough time after a tragic accident like she had. Knowing Phyllis however, she's capable of bringing major bitch mode and hopefully either she'll catch Devon and Hillary and rip them a new one or Neil will get his sight back soon and catch them. And I hope it's a really embarrassing, humiliating scene for Hevon because they so deserve it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 It seems odd to bring in someone that should have no POV to rip into Hevon for this affair. Do TPTB not think Neil and Lily being upset is enough for viewers? Are they planning on using someone like Phyllis to do it to garner sympathy for Hevon since Phyllis would be the biggest hypocrite on the planet for taking such big issue with their affair when she conceived her own love child from her affair with Nick? Or do they want to do it it big and embarassing and don't think fans will accept Neil orchestrating it because it would be OOC for him? I just can't finger point why Phyllis is needed in this story. I am not against it but I just don't see why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 I think Neil is going to get eyesight back - see Hilary with Devon and then turn really dark. You just know it has to play out that way. In fact, I could see Neil trying to get Hilary pregnant by messing with birth control, since we know she didn't throw away. I was skeptical of this S/L, but they've stuck with it and it's at least been interesting - might as well take it all the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GMac Posted December 30, 2014 Members Share Posted December 30, 2014 Today was kinda boring. Is it me or does SE have chemistry with almost everyone except JC? I like him and Ashley. I even noticed a lil spark with him and Jill. Even Cane. Lol Kelly was just strange today. And Phyllis running out of gas? Please. JH was once again the most interesting thing on the show today. For me anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
