Y&R: March 2015 Discussion Thread

From this week's GH Soapzone:

"Billy Miller (Jake/Jason), not so peachy-keen? 'Apparently BM has been showing up 2-4 hours late for work lately because of auditions. This week LW and BH had to take notes on blocking for him because he wasn't there and they were pissed. Cast/crew mad, but higher ups still love BM so letting it slide for now'"

It is disgusting, but so was the unjust firing of ART. Again, the producers completely underestimated the audiences' affection for an actor/character with 'going in a different direction.' That's what the end result has been with Billy now. The character under both DT/BM had a mischievous side, yet was very emotional and passionate. The character now has NONE of these qualities. Honestly, Billy could be off-canvas now and I wouldn't care and that's a real shame since he is the product of John/Jill, etc.

Steve Burton what suckage he is…the guy needs to leave TV all together….

Paul and Christine…blah…so boring together. So sick of Christine and her holler than thou attitude...

Steve Burton sucks…I had to repeat it twice…what an awful actor. He gets paid to suck the life out of Y&R.

Had to LOL Burton's line today "no one thinks I'm a fun guy" to Avery. The character sucks, it's time to pull the plug on this FOJ experiment.

IA detroit. These two are turning a halfwitted story (by the writers) into a credible one and their scenes today at the station were powerful.

Did the last scene at the GCAC come off as a bit awkward to anyone? Kelly's walking up there in the middle of everything was just dumb.

How Avery can compare Sharon to Joe...WTF?!? I don't think so, sissy!

Joe hasn't been on in how long? He doesn't need a loft, just a one way ticket out of town. And he can take Avery, Dylan, Cane, Pornhub Courtney, Kevin, Snortoria, Stitch, Gabby, Grandpa Bill Abbott(please recast with someone who appears to be under 50) with him. I'm sure there are others, but that's my start!

Oh, and I see from yesterday's cast list that we go another week without Jill. Great. Jill should have at least one day per week Phelpsie. Jess Walton is the heart of the show, treat her like it!

Joe can stay. However, my (realistic) cut list starts: with Porney, Kevin, Michael, Sage, Billy (recast or just send for a rest), Dylan (recast or send away), Kelly (though I do like Psycho/Unstable Cady, who is actually making the role better than it is - a true professional).

Make Kevin the killer and send him away, or better, Porney is the real killer.

I'm willing to cut the show some slack because they are continuing the high octane energy or moving things along - not just the disaster week - so I'm willing to forgive plotholes in lieu of constantly rehashing dialogue, angst, etc. I know it won't last, but at least it's not boring.

Victor just watching as the Phyllis/Jack/Kelly & Paul & The Bug scenes went down was hilarious!

Summer vs Mariah wub.png As I say everyday though this story is ridiculously stupid and contrived.

Hillary wub.png Kind of odd how fast Neil causing the car accident is being revealed and to whom. I guess Devon and Hillary will keep it to themselves out of guilt? Bleh, Neil's a POS.

I was expecting Neil's kids finding out about this to be a full story arc. It seems rushed. I think that's because

Besides that, without Devon and Lily, Neil doesn't have anyone else in a natural orbit. This mess with Nikki seems so contrived because Neil hasn't really shared scenes with anyone besides his children and love interests in half a decade.

Remember when Detective Hardy was so angry with Paul for Austin not getting any jailtime? and how taken his was with Abby? and the kiss he laid on her on New Years eve? Do you think he found out about Abby and Austin's affair and killed him? I have gone over all the players and unless it was a stranger we have not seen that had a motive we do not know about I cannot think of anyone else..Kyle is too obvious.

This cabin story is Pratt just doing the typical [!@#$%^&*] he used to churn out for ABC Family and on GH with JFP & Guza back in the Georgie/Dillon/Brooklynn teen set days. Abby getting hit is hilarious, and now you have Barbie Cop standing over her during questioning and looking suspicious. Yeah I'm still betting she'll be the one behind all of this for some ridiculous out of thin air reason.

The reason these regimes keep Sharon a little off the hinge is because they know the viewers and characters will always forgive her and move past whatever she does. That's a credit to Sharon Case.

Victoria sure loves showing up at the Jabot lab. Man I wish Amelia Heinle was a better actress, this character should be getting the same reaction her father gets. She has such a rich history of being ruthless to the town/competition (look at her and Ashley's dynamic, her and Sharon, Nina, even Chelsea etc) but AH never brings any meat or grit to her scenes so it all falls flat.And she's been this way for damn near 10 years.

I really hope this cancer story ends with Michael's death. I've only seen a couple of shows actually do that, I say go for it. Plus Michael is tired and its time for Lauren to be single.

Phyllis & Avery wub.png I actually like Jessica Collins and Steve Burton on the show, but together as a forced on us couple we're supposed to see as some kind of tentpole pairing? Boring, it doesn't work and the Joe guy isn't helping. Whenever they put Dylan and Sharon together (and you know its happening) I hope they can find a decent story for JC, I didn't see her intro story under MAB but she's fit in nicely on the show since JFP's been here, which wasn't the case and continues not to be with a lot of cast members on this show.

    • I don't care.  I feel that murderers and rapists shouldn't be romantic leads.
    • https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/7th-heaven-reboot-cbs-studios-jessica-biel-1236401017/ Sources say that the new show would focus on a diverse family, and that none of the original cast members would appear.  Anthony Sparks will serve as executive producer and showrunner on the reboot.  Jessica Biel, who starred in the original series, is executive producing under her Iron Ocean banner along with Michelle Purple.  DeVon Franklin will executive produce via Franklin Entertainment and his overall deal with CBS Studios. Sparks was previously the showrunner on the critically-acclaimed OWN series “Queen Sugar.” He also worked as an executive producer on “Bel-Air” at Peacock and the Mike Tyson biographical series “Mike” at Hulu. His other TV writing credits include “The Blacklist” and “The District.” Franklin is best known for producing faith based films like “Miracles from Heaven” and “Heaven Is for Real.” He previously held positions at Will Smith’s Overbrook Entertainment as well as MGM and Sony’s Colombia Pictures. In his time as a studio exec, he worked with Smith on films like “The Pursuit of Happyness,” “Hancock,” and “Seven Pounds.” His other credits include the animated Biblical film “The Star” as well as “Flamin’ Hot” and the BET+ original series “Kingdom Business.”
    • I think both of them have been given balanced, nuanced, and honest writing about who they both are, flaws and all, for months now. It's not so basic or black and white.
    • Grant Aleksander talks a bit about Capitol 50 minutes into this interview. He says he did the show because he was under a hold due a pilot he made for Aaron Spelling and only had limited choices in what he could do. John Conboy agreed to hire him at Capitol for six months but told him he would only really have two sets - a pool and a bed.

    • The Gio apology tour is getting very annoying and boring really fast.
    • I can't believe sweet and innocent Sarah Whiting would call Evie Stone a "tramp" and Wendy Carter a "slut"!

      Phillip Brown and Maree Cheatham did not get along at all 
    • Xander and EJ are villains.  I don't like them being written as romantic leads.  My opinion.
    • And those two couples cover all the main families on the show. As long as good story is happening than I'm happy to continue on with them together. 
    • Wake me up when Phyllis stops being the centre of the show again. Haven’t these writers learned from their mistakes? They want her to be a heroine so bad. Sharon is being used to prop up Phyllis once again by making her seem jealous over her and Nick having an intimate moment. Wtf? Why would Sharon care? it’s Phyllis’ world and everyone is just living in it. Gagggggggg
    • So there we have Lily and Damian in the same clothes, so the same day having 2  meet ups in different venues. Just about sums up the show and I'm sure there was a lot of talk about business. And they make NO effort to cover up that CL has no customers. I would feel uncomfortable sitting in an empty space. And anyone who wants to defend that set after looking at those pics, go ahead. Sharon must be losing a fortune on that place, maybe that's why she's decided against an update. For some reason,CL loses out on having extras.At least the other venues might have 4 or so people milling around.
