Members YRBB Posted September 28, 2016 Members Share Posted September 28, 2016 Nope lol I said above that it's one of the things they should undo/throw out so they can utilize Cast (if available) in a story that would be very strong. The "story" they did was a disgrace and a huge waste of potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeeeDee Posted September 29, 2016 Members Share Posted September 29, 2016 I'd love for Y&R to retcon Nina's son but only if the show commits to casting a good actor. Tricia is semi retired & it would be a waste of her time to not do the story right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted September 29, 2016 Members Share Posted September 29, 2016 So after bonding with Chelsea last week, Mariah quits Chelsea 2.0 over Chloe. Clearly the new writing regime is making some changes on the fly here. Thursday (U.S.) was clearly the weakest episode in several weeks, but still better than what we were getting. Even when being civil, Funny how Nikki, manages a dig to Sharon about how Chrully being 'big for his age, etc.' Normally what should be a compliment still comes across as some sort of criticism of Sharon. Anyway, Sharon should have said well it's because he takes after his grandmother. I don't mind because Nikki & Sharon should always have that certain friction.

Members Soapsuds Posted September 29, 2016 Members Share Posted September 29, 2016 Can they stop already with Kevin's lady triangle? We know the actor is gay. He has posted that he wants a gay storyline. Why is Y&R still pushing this [!@#$%^&*] on us? Its not believeable!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 As soon as Bella's father is revealed, that'll be end of Chloe/Kevin. Likewise with Chrully reveal - Mariah will be renamed Pariah. I imagine at least one or two new male characters/recasts will be on horizon soon.

Members ajsp35801 Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 whether the actor is gay is irrelevant to the character he plays. However, GR's Kevin is a skinny dorky weirdo with a scary abusive past who ain't dropping the panties of female OR male viewers!! This doesn't make any sense!

Members Soapsuds Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 It is when he looks bored and can't pull it off playing a straight character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 At this point, GR can't pull off playing gay either. Kevin isn't any gay male fantasy. He currently doesn't have the looks. Maybe with a tan, 20 more pounds of muscle, and a trendy haircut, I'd believe he could drop male panties. But right now? No! And I don't care whether GR wants it or not, it'd be irresponsible to make Kevin gay. Sends the wrong message all the way around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 I actually think they should write Kevin off. He ran his course long long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 That scene had an implication I didn't understand. Was Sharon's baby supposed to be born sooner than Christian. The comment clearly scared Sharon, so it seemed like it was a clue that Sully isn't her baby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 Here's something you can all cut eyes at me for: Jamey Giddens, of all people, suggested Tuc Watkins for a Phillip recast. Honestly, I'm for it. I know, I know - but Tuc is a great actor and capable of doing serious work, not just slapstick like Ron Carlivati gave him at OLTL. He showed a facility for more both before and after OLTL, on the online OLTL and on his many primetime and cable appearances both prior to the 2000s and much more recently. I'm down. Mock me if you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 Sharon's fake baby was born after Christian. BUT, Christian was a preemie and it wasn't that long after. Maybe a month. That's not enough for a size difference. Silly writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 I'd enjoy Phillip returning (with Tuc in the role) if the story was there. If there were no restrictions and we got a great gay love story. I'm talking along the lines of RobRon (of Emmerdale). I didn't care for Jamey's suggestion that Kevin and Michael be his love interests. If anything, I wish this show would rid of the Fisher/Baldwin brothers. Free Lauren. Free Chloe and Mariah.

Members Vee Posted September 30, 2016 Members Share Posted September 30, 2016 I don't think they should be Tuc Watkins' love interests, no (maybe one, not the other, that's just weird). I do think both Baldwin brothers are gay/bi and that playing them as str8 men doesn't fly. And I think that is a kind of taboo concept that can be a pretty big story, if the show wants to be honest. The Michael/Lauren angle would be a riff on Todd Haynes' Far From Heaven, with Julianne Moore playing wife to the deeply closeted Dennis Quaid, though Michael would be a more sympathetic figure. Kevin's story would likely be much more twisted, probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
