Members ajsp35801 Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 Preach! Are there any emotionally healthy young women whose fantasy is to marry a man in his mid 60s for money? That's just not ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Paul Raven Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 Well.emotionally healthy young women are few and far between on soaps these days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 Which is why we are speaking of female viewers' fantasies. Not characters. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 You ain't lyin'! If Y&R insists on keeping PB as Jack, then they can forget about Jack ever being again a viable, romantic lead who can generate genuine sex appeal or chemistry with any woman. They should just transition Jack into John's former role as Abbott family patriarch and allow the next generation (Billy, maybe Kyle (if he were brought back), DEFINITELY Keemo (if TPTB were to stop listening to PB and bring HIM back)) to assume Smilin' Jack's former status as the family playboy.

Members Sapounopera Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 PB is just fine as Jack. And sorry but Keemo has been the most boring Y&R character ever, if the character wasn't Asian I doupt anybody would think that it is crucial for the show to bring him back. Jack's insta-family with Luan would have been the kiss of the death for Jack and I am sure that is the reason Bill Bell ended their story rather quickly and forgot they existed.

Members DRW50 Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 I don't remember him being as boring as PB Jack has been for the last 15-20 years. It was actually the last time I was at all interested in Jack as a character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 I would love a Jack and Hillary down the road as long as it came from an honest place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sapounopera Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 I think the Luan story was so out of character for Jack and was always meant to be short term. One interesting thing about Keemo? His hair? Perhaps it is just me, because I hate long-lost-kids stories on soaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 Naw, people are always clamoring for long forgotten children to be brought back. Even when they're crashed and burned as characters multiple times. They're missing story opportunities having Jack on the canvas without children. I think people see more wasted potential in Keemo (and Kyle), not some strong desire for whatever his characterization was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sapounopera Posted February 27, 2017 Members Share Posted February 27, 2017 The best story for Jack would be to to get him married to Jill (in order to save Jabot or something) and being forced to live in the same house with her. This would also provide Ashley and Billy with some interesting material. Kyle Abbott should also return to the Abbott mansion. But please, no 50-year old sleep walking Keemo daydreaming about Cricket all over again. BTW everybody hates PB for changing Jack and nobody seems to mind that Jess Walton turned Jill into someone not even Bill Bell could find anything interesting to write for except fighting with Kay. I have grown to love Jess, but she is not the sexy manicurist who seduced all these rich older men. She is also someone who hasn't had a successful pairing in MANY years, yet nobody says that she should be recast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
