Members slick jones Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 The credit card is just the way for Victoria to catch him. Just a plot point to move the story, if he did use it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 Yes, representation does matter. I don't mean to stir up trouble or beat a dead horse but... The long term story of Hilary working her way up much like Neil did is one of the main reasons Devon's wealth doesn't work for Sally. MiM is believable in a business setting. I buy Hilary as the competent exec. I doubt that's unnoticed in the creative meetings. But telling that story doesn't work when she's married to a billionaire unless it's his company with his wealth tied to it. CI is the only option at the moment.

Members Roman Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 if under SS this is becoming THe Gloria Show again.....then I'll stay in FF mode until I cut it off. I'm sick of her already...and what is this that now she commits corporate espionage and will probably get away with it (like she did when John went to prison after her ass poisoned Jabot product)?

Members Darn Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 You ok? This show is trying to tell me Reed, son of an heiress and grandson of a multi-millionaire, takes a BUS? No. No no. He'd have a driver or take an Uber at the very least. Ridiculous. And as others have said it's 2017, no teenage boy pays for porn. He'd more likely get off to someone on Instagram, Tumblr or Snapchat. They seriously need someone under 45 in that writer's room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 I thought about that and decided not to mention it for the same reasons you're probably thinking. Also, I also tend to think of Dru as more of a ballerina/model turned executive whereas Hillary, fresh out of college veered directly to the corporate track (after playing chess with the Winters' lives, of course). OMG yes! This porn/Internet story would have been great 16-17 years ago but it's severely out of touch now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ajsp35801 Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 They could have modernized that though or at least made it more believable for their status. He could have downloaded an app to meet girls or boys and had the accountant tip her off when he read the bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 Seriously, Reed used a credit card to buy internet porn? That's like Jerry Springer paying hookers with a check! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 Exactly. Also if this show has Victoria get a bill that says "$25.00 - Porn.GirlPorn.com" I'm gonna throw a fit. I was a teenage boy once with a credit card and these sites use an innocuous vague name when they bill you. Re: GC Buzz It's wild to me that people who run a TV show have NO idea how television works. Let's say Les Moonves, Julie Chen's husband, was in a terrible car accident and needed her by his side, do you think they'd stop producing The Talk for weeks on end? No. They're either replace her or get one of the other co-hosts to fill her spot. They wouldn't stop producing the show. That puts dozens of people out of work. That would cause their advertisers, who buy ad time months in advance, to revolt. That's just not how the world works. And if the show is not being produced, a show about the daily scandalous lives of the denizens of Genoa City, why are staff even at the office? What are they doing? Lily modeling looked like a bad ad from 1985. She's not sexy, she looks like an ostrich in drag. Also someone should have told Beastmaster that Cane (whose addiction story seems to have disappeared) was supposed to look upset that Lily was modeling again because he looked nothing but happy despite what Jill said.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 I thought they'd just have Mariah fill in. Indeed, what are they even doing? I feel like I could be saying this about Lauren's storyline too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 See now that would make sense. Hillary would end up getting exactly what she didn't want, Mariah in her position. Except now because Devon is recovering Hillary wouldn't care, it would show character development on her part. I've complained a lot but it was nice yesterday that most everyone was talking about the black characters and that Jack, the 60 year old leading man of the show, was basically treated as a talk-to for Hillary.

Members JONNYSBRO Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 This porn storyline is stupid. God this is all Sallug has going for here. Look dear umbrella storytelling. She has a right to bash Lynn Latham and then rips off from her. Shes the worst hack i havd ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 17, 2017 Members Share Posted January 17, 2017 Not to my knowledge. The last time I saw her at GC Buzz she was reading a statement to the audience about Devon's accident and wishing him a full recovery and telling the viewers that they were going to be showing pre-recorded episodes until further notice. That was my initial thought- that it would be ironic if because of this accident, Hillary decides to let go of hosting GC Buzz and makes the decision to put Mariah onto hosting duties. Maybe I was hopeful that Hillary would end up muscling into a BOD/exec job at CI (that company needs to be revived) and mixing it up with Jill. Y&R needs subplots to their stories (with 5 days a week to do it, I think they have the time). This Devon accident story desperately needs one, especially since the initial premise (Hillary tripping Mariah) was so weak. But I agree that it is clear that they are investing in making Hillary and Devon more than one dimensional character. A for effort. This could be so much more though.
