Y&R: February 2015 Discussion Thread

Yep. Although I don't think Nick is an idiot. For the most part he tries to be a good Dad, that 's kind of his thing so I get why he went for full custody. It makes sense for the character.

Someone posted this idea (brain tumor) a couple months ago and we kicked it around a little so maybe someone on the show saw that and decided to do it. I would love that too, I don't want Sharon to have an incurable mental disease. They might be going there because Sharon has been acting irrational and out of control lately while she's supposedly still on her meds so what's up with that?

[kenerly1]

Sharon is a lunatic..I could not believe today when she was talking to Cassie's grave and said she made ONE mistake..OMG

[DramatistDreamer]

That someone was me.

[NothinButAttitude]

I take a slight break from the board and everyone is coming down on Sharon and siding with that bastard Nick?!

Not on my watch! No today, people! Not today!

[dragonflies]

Yes I agree all I can do is *RME* Sharon has a MENTAL ILLNESS geesh, like someone said on twitter she has this illness but yet all her support system gets taken away, WTF? That's Pratt for ya

[NothinButAttitude]

I don't trust Pratt with my Sharon. Even though he did revitalize Annie, I can easily see him rewriting the same story for Sharon and I ain't for that. Annie went through the same sh*t as Sharon did early on. She lost everyone and eventually her child and then became unhinged.

Nope. Not for it.

[dragonflies]

I know some loved InsAnnie but IMO he ruined the character, I about threw up when he had Aidan sexing her up in a mental institution

[NothinButAttitude]

I only like unhinged Annie because she f*cked with Kendall, Ryass, and Collard Greens--three characters I didn't give a damn for in the show's final years. But I didn't like the other stuff she did like taking advantage of Adam.

[redontop4]

Pretty clear what the big Feb-sweeps disater will be after today's epsiode. I guess Pratt has other career plans for Nick.

[DramatistDreamer]

I wasn't coming down on Sharon. I did propose that mass on her brain because it would be a better explanation for her crazy behavior (including the Adam mess) and it would make Neil, Summer feel like sh*t for trying to make Sharon feel like sh*t, if it all tied back to Nick's infidelity.

Thought I had made myself clear in that long a*s post I made several weeks/months ago.

[NothinButAttitude]

I too said that Sharon should be given a brain tumor so we can move on past this. This show is too dense [and so are the characters] for them to give Sharon something complex like bipolar disorder.

What pisses me off with this show is that Nicki bashed someone in the head with a damn rock and has killed two other people and she does not get punished in the writing. Neither does Phyllis or Victor, who have both done worse. I just hate that Sharon has become Genoa City's punching bag and has been since 2006. She rarely catches a break, and when she does, we know real quick [via the writing] that she is going to have a fall from grace even sooner.

I seriously wish I was at helm of this show because Sharon would be taken out the Newman orbit altogether minus her kids. I'd put her in a new family's orbit along with dropping the Newman name. She'd basically view them as nonexistent except for the holidays.

They got rid of Sharon's mother and Paul's family which were the only bluecollar (i.e. not rich) people since the Fosters were eliminated.

A real shame.

Remember a year before Jeanne Cooper died, when she mentioned an idea for a plane crash to cut down on the cast...?

[NothinButAttitude]

They don't even need to do something so drastic like that. Just pull a SEARCH and have there be a flood in Genoa City. Kevin, Michael, Sage, Cane, Lily, Kelly, Colin, Victor, and Neil can die. Victoria and Billy can be declared MIA till suitable recasts come into play.

[cassadine1991]

Aren't all the soaps cutting.cast members?
