Members Antoyne Posted August 16, 2016 Members Share Posted August 16, 2016 The mansion looks SO MUCH better. Not exactly the same as the old look but tons better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted August 16, 2016 Members Share Posted August 16, 2016 third. But it's all to show what victor did was fine. He will play family hero at Phyllis' request. The biggest problem is the shows refusal to write for and truly invest in any man under 30. They are totally stuck on their 40 something male leads. At least that's the problem for mariah and Abby. Hilary and lily have totally different issues that won't be solved with with more younger men. I don't get adding Chelsea into this number. There is nothing stuck about her. The show ensures that she's always at the forefront with a pairing and story no matter what's going on with Adam. Chloe just cane back. I'm sure she will fall into that Chelsea category this time around. EH didn't come back to be paired with GR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted August 16, 2016 Members Share Posted August 16, 2016 ^ I added Chelsea because for months her story has completely involved/revolved around Adam (supporting him when Victor ended the Chicago job, the Chrully reveal and the frame-up, etc.) Very little of what Chelsea does is Adamless. At least we saw Chelsea 2.0 the other day. I would've chalked it up to JH's schedule with his show, but it's extended much further back than the past couple of months. But MCE is far better off than most of the other 'younger' actresses on the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members celine12 Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 Billy has to be at least 40 years old and Jill thinks he is going to let his loud, overbearing mother tell him what to do? This is what JW was brought by for? What a waste. Good for ED that she is back to her reality show among other projects. A house didnt't have to fall on her at Y&R!

Members piperisthenewsookie Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 Why is it stupid? Because Victor put a fake Jack in Phyllis's bed putting him way over the line at least as far as I'm concerned. Phyllis is screwing her brother in law, neither one of these a holes has any credibility whatsoever and that's what makes the writing for this story line so sucky when it could be great. I do agree that the show is looking a lot better but if the writing doesn't improve, if they get rid of Luca and Travis instead of bringing them on board in a major way and making Victor pay in a big way it won't make any difference. The show will still suck. I would like to invite someone from the writing staff at Y&R to post on this board, anonymously, and assure me and the anyone else that cares, that the writing for this show is going to get better. I really can't be disappointed anymore, I'm at the end of my rope. And BTW, Hillary is being completely and totally wasted on this show. This talented actress needs a decent story that doesn't include Devon or Neil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 ^^^ I hope you get your wish with Hilary and she gets a story far away from Devon. Unlike some, I feel like he's being wasted as her purse holder, bank, and yes man. Hoping that they break up and writers give him more edge so they can actually finally attempt to write for him and let him drive story for a change. Do something besides defend her and be her moral compass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 Chelsea's only purpose for existing is to be Adam's wife. Her story will always be about or include him. That's just a given considering the show is now some knock off couple centric ABC soap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 Poor Devon has looked like Hillary's fool for some time now. I'd like to see him reconnect with Abby. MO has improved and she and Devon could be fun together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cruising Soaps Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 Is it sad that the only woman who has a back bone on the show is Bethany/? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 I agree on MO. She has come a long way. However, I still think she's too tall for a Devon and Abby pairing. It'd look too distracting onscreen. I'd rather see him doing business related stories and spark a friendship then romance with Chloe. Always thought they made sense and that BJ and EH had chemistry. But I saw real spark back when Devon was the benefactor for the Delia valentine's day fundraiser. He can play daddy to Bella until her true paternity is revealed and HELP RUN (very important he be shown doing this) and fund Chloe's fashion line under CI umbrella to rival Chelsea 2.0. That's a story I want to see. Since they insist Hilary must be paired with one of their old guys then free Devon and allow writers to go for hilary/Jack or Hilary/Neil 3.0 . Just don't have him around pining for her on the sidelines, which was clearly Pratt's plan. What sense does that make in a world where Kevin has 3 young love interests?

Members YRfan23 Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 Thank goodness the mansion looked better, and Jess teared it up in all of her scenes as usual! I actually found the ending with Bethany and Victor to be hilarious too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 You complain about pretty much everything, and I have no clue as to what you'd like to see. You have any great potential couples or storylines in mind? Because all we get from you is one slam after another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ponds Posted August 17, 2016 Members Share Posted August 17, 2016 I think both Luca and Travis won't be around much longer. I can see one of them dying and the other charged with murder and are off the canvas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
