June 11, 20169 yr Member Was Y&R preempted on Friday for MA's funeral as well?......I'm asking cause it doesn't like like monday's global show is uploaded anywhere....
June 12, 20169 yr Member What's really sad about Dylan is that the character has so many built in ties on canvas. He brought the 2 longest vets together - who actually were involved eons ago. Built in conflict with Victor. Two siblings - one of which he has scenes with. When was the last time he had a one-on-one scene with his sister - that's strange. The ties to Phyllis via Avery; Stitch which ties him to Abby and indirectly to Ashley and the Abbotts; Chelsea to Adam, his stepbrother. And yet with all those solid connections, Dylan could easily be eliminated - that's just bad execution across the board from writing to character development.

We can never blame them for not trying And, after all that, he can still be gone midway through Wednesday's episode and nobody would even realize!
June 13, 20169 yr Member Looks like Pop is replacing the 8pm repeat of Y&R with repeats of The Talk. Bold and Beautiful is still at 6:30 http://poptv.com/schedule
June 13, 20169 yr Member If you look for the week of June 20, it says Y&R is back in its normal slot on Pop, but all this week "The Talk" is scheduled to be on instead. This is very strange.
June 13, 20169 yr Member Hillary would bother with Mariah because even social climbers need real relationships in their lives. Oh, and Mariah's mother is pretty rich. It's pretty silly that the show is acting as if Sharon wouldn't be spoiling this girl rotten to make up for the past. In terms of writing, it's simple common sense to try to humanize a character who is doing ugly things at any given time. If you don't, it's not long before that character is written into a corner. Luckily, I think Hilary is going to get a little reset soon. Her story doesn't even make sense. People married to billionaires don't need to social climb. They are already at the top. The idea that Hillary has to fight to be at the top of the GC social world is laughable. That's why she needs a Katherine to her Jill if the show wants to continue writing her this way. Katherine was always there to slap Jill back into her place (for right or wrong). Yet another example of how Winters related stories can not be fully played due to lack of a suitable matriarch. Lily can not play this role.

June 14, 20169 yr Member Lily is way too young. That's nowhere close to the reason why Lily can't play that role.

Lily can not play this role. Lily is way too young. I'd bring Olivia back CK isn't even 30! This has been my gripe this year - how the Lily character was stripped of her 20s! Lily should be hanging around Noah, Luca (that would be a hot affair), Travis, Mariah, Marissa, Summer and Natailie - not Neil and Cane. For that matter same goes for Abby. Please bring the 'Young' back to Y&R. The show is starting to remind me of ATWT with all the seniors on there. HOWEVER, like ATWT, Y&R does have solid vets so it could be worse. And I will credit Pratt for not really shoving a bunch of talentless newbies on us. Every actor who has been added since JH/GT had been worthy. Jury out on Bethany.
June 14, 20169 yr Member Summer is slowly being stripped of her 20s too. She should be going to the mall with her friends, partying instead of what she's doing now.
