Y&R: February 2017 Discussion Thread

I know I know...but I have to.....

 

The show is a boring mess still.

 

1. Nick and Chelsea are boring!  The scenes with them and Noah were boring as hell! But I agree that Noah and Chelsea had chemistry.

2. Jill's story is awful. This is a very savvy woman and she let that fool play her again and at warp speed!  This story ended before it even started. The heart attack attempted storyline is so depressing. I think I will pass on it.

3. When did Lauren become all panicky about Scotty? She was fine and happy on Valentine's Day after his dropped call. Now you'd think Sheila were back.

This incomplete story is going at warp speed too with no story in it at all. I thought Scotty was studying to be a doctor and not some awful reporter?

4. There is nothing else going on in this soap unless you count 1, 2 and 3.

5. Any wonder the ratings continue to drop for Y&R.

6. Two sons in hiding...Lauren's and Paul's....not only is she boring writer but she is repeating stories too.

 

Sally Sussman's Y&R =BORING INCOMPLETE STORY TELLING!

Thought the same thing. I am sure before story #2 is over with which will be tomorrow that Gloria will be involved...JUST WATCH!

Yea, this insta-drama doesn't work.  At all.  And I agree, there was loads of story left to tell with Fenmore's, but now BOTH Jill and Lauren are in a new story?!?  We should have seen Lauren at the hospital as well.

 

Where has Hilary been?  She was featured for weeks, now nothing for the last two.  

 

Sharon now suddenly staring down Chelsea.  Please no.  She's shown zero interest in reuniting with Nick, and this is another story coming outta nowhere.

 

I'm still holding out hope, but the cracks are starting to become gaping holes.  Tighten it up, Sally.

Why is Cricket/Christine here?  Get rid of her...does anyone LOVE this character?  No one Ever HAS.  It's like CANE.  He's just there for 15 years.  Cricket's been here for like 40 freakin years.  Kill her.  That'll give Paul a storyline for 3 days rather than running into rooms giving people bad news about how South Beach is calling...PO PO callin' from South Beach.  DYLAN is in DANGER!  HE's IN DANGER!!!!   Po PO calling from the State Department.  LAUREN!  SCOTT COULD be DEAD!  Wait.  No - he could be missing!  But they CAN'T SAY whether it's one or the OTHER!  

Terry Lester (Fevuh) is rising from the grave and speaking because honestly - Cricket is the big mystery of Daytime to me.

Honest to God - how much has Lauralee Bell hauled in - in Salary over like - 30 or 35 years???  I remember her on the show in around - 1984 or 85?  She has to be the longest running actress on the show other than maybe 3 or 4 other females on this show.

I felt that way during the Christine/PIII "Lady in Red" embarrassment - but LB worked really hard to be quite the capable actor. She may not have deserved to be there at the beginning, but she certainly earned it. The problem with Christine is that she's rarely featured now - it's hard to be relevant when she's only on 21 times during 2016. There were 7 episodes in January, but that was centered around the cheesy SB exit.

She's hardly on very much or leading a storyline at the moment, LOL ...

 

Agreed about Paul though. They really need to work on him. I don't find him at all likeable anymore. He seems so miserable and grumpy. I feel like I'm watching the last years of AMC and MEK where he was so checked out, miserable and bored. I wouldn't go that far with Davidson but man ...

The gaping holes have always been there but some have not wanted to see them.

I had to cringe at her scenes the other day at the Newman Ranch. My eyes were rolling....when has Faith cared lately about her parents being together? She has been trashing both of them and moved out. If she can get them back together without pouting and leaves with them from GC then I will be happy....LOL.

 

I do have to say that Noah and Ashley would be interesting. The fireworks would be good but Sally only writes boredom incomplete stories.

Cricket is fine. She just shouldn't be with Paul. They need to get rid of Cane and his idiot father plus Gloria.

I always liked Paul with Lauren. She was the schemer who really loved Paul but couldn't help herself getting into trouble.  Troublemaker Lauren made Paul interesting. I even wanted a Paul/Andy pairing but that would have never happened in the 80's. Paul and Andy were hot together and I thought they were more than just best friends/coworkers.

It's sad when a flashback is the best part of an episode.

    • https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/19/benjamin-netanyahu-israel-take-control-gaza-uk-france-canada-threaten-action    Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed that Israel will “take control” of all Gaza, as three key allies attacked his “egregious” escalation of the military campaign and blockade on humanitarian aid. Britain, France and Canada attacked Israel’s expansion of its war as disproportionate, described conditions in Gaza as “intolerable” and threatened a “concrete” response if Israel’s campaign continues. finance minister Bezalel Smotrich said Israel’s army would “wipe out” what remains of Palestinian Gaza.  “Now we conquer, cleanse and stay" ---------------------------- My thoughts: This is genocide, ethnic cleansing.  It's just evil and there's no excuse for it.  I'm glad Canada, France, and UK are making a statement, and I hope they back it up. There are some Israeli citizens who don't support what Netanyahu is doing, and I hope they are able to enact some positive change from within.
    • -- I'm not unhappy that Nina and Carly had a bad fight including slapping and tackling and falling down. But geez, all that insane SCREAMING was over the top. It was three minutes of shrieking, and I thought it was all too much. -- And ANOTHER day of Dante ripping Gio and Gio again discussing his sins and failures. Make it end already. -- In the previews, Gio is walking the Nurses Ball red carpet with Joss. Uh...why??? I don't know why Joss is there at all. Doesn't she have some secret agent stuff to do? -- Chase is at the end of the previews, yelling into the phone "You want me to do WHAT???"  My guess is that's another fakeout that there's something important going on, and that Chase got a call to perform at the Nurses Ball. This show....
    • Watching...   For the most part, today's show is boring and trending on fast-forwarding scenes.
    • I figured that they would take Kat in this direction with men for the time being. I like those small bits of history from Tomas, but I still have not warmed up to him yet. A Pamela/Vanessa feud could be worth the watch.

    • Part of me wishes Sarah Whiting had been exposed as a fraud, someone who claims to be Len and Patti's foster child, but whom Patti exposes right off the bat when she arrives in Henderson.
    • I agree, and I think both could be true: Jane Wyman needed to reduce her work schedule due to health concerns, and CBS/Lorimar took advantage of that in order to cut costs, too.
    • It's quite confusing what she's doing with her character. I'm not from the DMV, but what is that accent? Is she pulling a Dorit? Also, why are Dani and Pamela acting like they're broke. They don't have any money aside to start up a business? With their background in the modeling world, why would they even need a physical studio? They have connections (and Dani wasn't afraid to mention it when she was tasked to replace Chelsea in the fashion show when Chels pulled out). They can literally use Dani's small catwalk in her house to test potential models. They can easily scout online using social media. It's 2025! Dani is supposedly a recognized model from her day, then have her act like it. I know some people are saying it's a stretch, but in the 90s there were plenty of models that graced covers and runways with the likes of Naomi and Christie that were never as big, but they still rubbed elbows had successful careers. Dani could easily fall into that category. Also, it's not like a lot of the big name 80s and 90s models didn't go on to live very typical lives after their moment faded...why couldn't Dani be that. 
    • Ashley just wants to schtup Andre. She needed to create a big meltdown in order to get rid of Derek and feel no guilt. Doug needed to lay Joey out on the floor. He needs to get some courage and beat Joey down to the ground. Kat turning down a date with Tomas to see if Eva was locked up is a sign she's going to lose him. Even without Eva in the picture she was going to have problems. The way she talked to him when he bumped into her and she didn't know it was him seemed to be a red flag too. Leslie has revealed a whole lot of the truth on her own. Without her making all those comments to Kat she wouldn't have ended up at the police station.
