Members DRW50 Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 The first paragraph is nothing but asskissing. Logan is as phony as ever. Disgusting. Given that Pratt hasn't even brought a ratings increase, it tells you just how creatively bankrupt and apathetic Sony and CBS are to let this trash air.

Members DaytimeFan Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 Bill Bell must be rolling his grave at this. They've stolen this right of the Katherine/Marge playbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rlj Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 Oh damn, shark jumping has begun by Pratt, hence the mention of Ashley's parentage last week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 DUDE, how many times are soaps gonna do this story? How many times has Y&R done this story in the last DECADE? Jesus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 This is so beyond sickening and disgusting. The Ashley thing? Torturous! It only took Pratt a couple of months? Yep, sounds about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 OMG sound the drums and let's get of Pratt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 Like I said before…they fired the hack Jean Passanante who did the same story with Cassie to hire another hack probably for more money to do the same story with the same contract players….just awful. This is what Angela was pimping on Twitter the other day….gawd…this woman needs to be fired too!! Shame on Peter Bergman!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 At this point they need to fire Pratt and bring in Bradley Bell to write both of his dad's former shows. It CAN NOT get any worse than this mess Pratt is doing. Idiots in charge!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 How is this Peter Bergman's fault? He's a 62 year old actor with a house in Newport Beach to pay for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 For hyping this [!@#$%^&*] of a story! At least Eric Braeden in an early interview said the writing didn't make sense…kind of trashed it but then said it worked….he was playing both sides but at least he admitted to how the story made no sense…LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 The ratings only went up the first week of his material….and a few little jumps throughout but lately the ratings have flattened and I hope they drop for this dreadful storyline. Maybe then they will fire Pratt and hire Bell to finish off what his dad started. Now I really do believe that B&B will be the last soap standing when all the dust is gone and settled.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted April 14, 2015 Members Share Posted April 14, 2015 I think PB feels compelled to 'sell' this storyline knowing that future opportunities (opportunities for what though??) for his character may be on the line. Like one poster alluded to, he has bills to pay and opportunities may not be easy to come by, especially for entrenched soap actors these days. However, I don't believe he's enthusiastic about this dumb storyline, anymore than I believe Sharon Case is gungho about many of the idiotic storylines she's been shoved into over the past 5-6 years. These actors know that 'playing their part' goes beyond playing the character onscreen-- it extends to interviews and promotions and meet and greets where they must sell the role, their current storyline and the show. I get the sense that they'd rather endure a bad storyline that endure backburner status. But I'm not buying all this enthusiasm. Boy, I miss my ATWT! When an actor thought a story was poo-poo, they'd say it was poo-poo! Some were more diplomatic than others but you could never mistake their comments for any type of enthusiasm for a horrible storyline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted April 15, 2015 Members Share Posted April 15, 2015 Sharon Case is also apparantly "loving" her current storyline, so shame on her too then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
