Omg soapsuds we agree lol. It reminds me of MarDar DAYS nothing happened.  I never thought i would be saying JFP was a much better EP then Mal. Mal has no vision for YR. YR needs Wendy Riche IMO stat. She is a fan of YR plus she is a visionary.

Wow, Steve Burton without his shirt. I wonder how much that cost Y&R?

 

 

Chelsea and Nick....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...boring

 

 

A real closeup of SB nipples....zzzzzz and his story continues tomorrow....

 

The show was awful today!

 

I am giving Sussman and Kay Alden a year and they'll be gone too. They haven't done anything to improve this show. We've had bits and pieces of good scenes but that's about it. No storylines at all going on. Y&R is the new Seinfeld...a soap about nothing.

Noah looks like Reed's Dad.

Ha agreed......Joshua Morrow's take on Nick is so childish. He acts like a kid. Noah looks and acts more grownup than his dad.

I think a good story would be to explore why nick is an overgrown frat boy....is it due to his parents divorce, marrying and becoming a parent at at young age.  

 

In regards to the new regime...you do recall Sussman created Generations where nothing really happened...until the final episode...and then you wondered what took her so long lol

 

I think what the new regime needs is a strong co head writer that has good ideas...and then Sally can structure the ideas and make sure that the ideas fit the character.

 

With that said, she is writing Hilary well...and so far, the scenes focusing on Lauren are promising...but only Lauren.  ANd I'm hoping for a Jill vs Hilary scene.  If I could compare Hilary to any character in terms of fiestiness...I could easily say Nina.  I almost want Nina back on just to have a Jill vs Nina scene

Generations was a piece of garbage and yes I do recall her writing on that show.

Yet your hands are still good, and never seem to tire from typing out, one post after another, that focus on re-centering characters around Devon, and your desperate need to have him own what Jill has.

That's why I always thought Nick should have been recast. Nick acts like a child and not a parent. His relationships have been so boring to watch. He has only worked with Sharon and that's it!

 

And now Victoria is being written and acting the same way. She is childish and comes off very immature for her age.

Yes!  Another reason for Chance to be re-cast on on-screen. Nina would have to visit.

Sussman would have no story for Chance or Nina. Jill vs Nina should have continued or picked up when JC passed away.

 

Soap writers have forgotten how to write a compelling soap opera!

This Victoria and Reed stuff is so bad.

Did Reed just hurl?  What was that?

Reed is the only good addition to the show but Victoria doesn't come off as a mother. AH can't handle the role and it shows in this story.

I agree  AH seems uncomfortable with Reed. She seems natural with the little kids imo
