I really didn't pay too much attention to her at the beginning or didn't notice her until the MM hit the fan. I don't think she is that great of actress. She is mediocre at best. She gets on my nerves as well and its because of her acting not the actual character.

So I decided to watch the exchange between Sharon & Nick.... blink.pngblush.pngmad.gif

I am glad someone compared this to Ellen Weston b/c this is exactly what this story is about to be. The Maryanne Carruthers crap on GL.

So we are supposed to believe that Nick killed some girl when we watched him grow up onscreen?

Even though I hate Nick, this totally goes against his character. If he killed someone but has been constantly bashing Sharon and even Redzilla for the past 7-8 years over their heinous acts, doesn't this make him the biggest hypocrite? IMO, this will kill Nick as a character [to the audience] more than when he hopped into bed with Phyllis while grieving.

Going against the show's canon is going to kill this show. They'll be lucky if they even make it to 50. This story is gong to potentially drive a huge nail in Y&R's coffin.

WTF!?!? I really, really, REALLY hope that you're wrong. You usually are right on target, but in this case, I want you to be way out in left field. lol

Doesn't this show have enough convoluted stories already without introducing more trash. Ugh.

Having love for the actor and character can be two completely different things. Look at Cameron Mathieson on AMC. Most people loved the actor but hated the character Ryan b/c he became a huge ass hypocrite--a huge contrast from the original interpretation of the character. A simple rewrite of a character's past or character traits can kill a character.

I don't think this rewrite will be OK because it will totally go against anything Nick stood for in past years.

The whole twist on that story totally threw me off…..makes zero sense at all….even though I know thats not the secret that will resurface again.

I wonder who they are blowing…cause both suck.

Not to mention all the other times that Sharon could've used this against Nick - like when he left Phyllis, when she was with Adam, in jail and, oh, I don't know during the whole custody case that just transpired. If anything, this just makes Sharon look bad again. After all the time that was spent finally made Sharon viable again, it's just disappointing.

      In addition, no one seems to be eating the show right now. EJ is a great example. James Scott's EJ is one of my most hated characters, and that's nothing against the actor, because he was gorgeous and great in the part when he wasn't having a blinking fit, but the amount of episodes he racked up in his relatively short amount of time on the show is absolutely insane. Coming back to this show as a regular view last fall, I was prepared for that hatred to be further ignited, but I needn't have worried, because the only true albatross on the show is Leo, but he's not even on that much, he's just that awful.

      I agree with you on all of it. After what we got from RC for YEARS, seeing real soap is beyond refreshing. I like "romantic leads" who cannot be ignored. Kate is definitely revived as a character, and a lot of the credit goes to Philip. JPL has been really good since his return, and I hope they keep him around.

      5-16   Build, build, build. So much of it going on and not bored by any of it. A story continued to be the fallout from the SilkPress/Eva reveal. And I'm happy to see that the fallout made it all the way through the week with C plots being built up to B plots. And then little subplots (Dani's business, Vanessa and her roleplaying games) to keep in mind.    Now that I've watched it several times...all I can think of seeing Silk Press Sheila with NuTed is hmmmm. Honestly, while I felt Trish and Maurice had chemistry, I always felt character-wise that SilkPress and Maurice's Ted would never get back together. At most, I could see them having hate sex. However, SilkPress with Keith's Ted...how to word this...I feel like...in spite of all of her scheming...she has a chance of getting him back given how Trish and Keith interact with each other. And I feel like she's giving 90s DAYS Sami Brady with Austin Peck's Austin where Sami would be playing it to the hilt and Austin...even when he knew better...would STILL be falling for her tricks. Or even when Sami would be somewhat redeemed and he had a 'right' to like her, it would end badly cuz she did something. That was the vibe I got from the SilkPress/NuTed scenes. Keith's Ted definitely came across as a romantic lead in a triangle versus Maurice's Ted where even though he messed up, I saw him only having eyes for Nicole. So...Hmmmmmm. Mind you, I don't see Keith's Ted as stupid/dumb like Austin Peck's version of Austin on DAYS.   Kat being on the case and looking into Laura's accident and giving her recording to Jacob also continue to spin the story into its next logical direction...even if Kat has it tagged on the wrong person. The walls may be closing in on SilkPress, but like she said a while back...she still has tricks up her own sleeves. And I just know the rivalry between Kat and Eva ain't over so this is just another match to the fire. And it'll be good to see Jacob in cop mode. Then Nicole still dealing with her own feelings and wanting to sell the house. Good scenes with her and Vanessa.   And while that was all going on...the plots around them...   1) MARTIN'S SECRET. I have enjoyed how Bill's little seed has been growing in Smitty's mind. And Smitty's being in reporter mode. His scenes with Nicole to see if he was right to be second guessing himself was well-done. I didn't get it at first viewing, because I would think he would be happy that Martin backed down. But I'm seeing it through his reporter eyes, and I get it. And of course, I live for Smitty's scenes with Bill. And Bill is just getting too much glee with messing with Martin and Smitty.    2) ANITA'S STORY. Yassss!!! Oh, Vernon...how I love you. I really enjoyed seeing him slowly coax Anita into calling yet another bandmate. I felt CD and TT were really giving how a relationship can be. And I enjoyed it. Of course, I enjoy that it's clear that Anita wears the pants in that relationship...not that Vernon don't have his moments. They just complement each other so well.   3)MS. JUNE. Outside of the fact that I thought that surgery happened too quickly, good to see her out of surgery. Not to mention seeing Nosy Nurse. Say what you want about her ability to get the tea, but she's really great at her job, and it's great to see.    Well...Doug still has a week. Dani and Pamela are still working on a business. Vanessa is still playing. And it's nice to see those threads still around. But not a major focus yet. And it all still flowed.   And of course...a Friday cliffhanger with Jacob taking Silk Press Sheila down to the station.   So great week of soap overall for me. It doesn't seem like today's episode is going to be loaded on my system until tomorrow. But I guess that is what apps are for.
