Y&R Debuts New Opening Credits


Recommended Posts

So it looks like the 3rd version only had one addition:

- Sharon: She was very well styled and I loved all the movement in her shot - she obviously is well versed on how to shoot your opening credits shot. I do wish Sharon Case would let the hair people try something different with her hair. She looked great with a little bang action.

 

I liked that Neil opened this version too - he is a tent pole family lead which always seems to dictate who opens or closes a version of the opening credit.

 

Based on the random assortment of people in this version - do you think they are basically editing these daily for whomever is in the day's episode? It just seems like a random grouping of characters this time around (the Winters, younger Newmans).

 

I think this also shows that we're not going to get much in terms of the heavily recurring cast which is so disappointing - especially where the likes of Jess Walton and Tracey Bregman are involved.

I love that Jill and Esther were added to the new opening. I guess JW is going on contract?  I think the only one yet shown is Lauren and Reed?

I thought of Jeanne too as I saw the opening. She'd also be proud of her other girl Kate Linder. I love the diamonds falling in the background in Jess part of the opening.

 

BTW...in the background pose of Jess it looks like she is channeling Brenda Dickson.

Love that Jess Walton was included. I don't think she signed a contract so it means highly recurring actors can be included. I'm positive Tracey Bregman will appear too as she was on the photoshoot. Same with Beth Maitland, Robert Adamson, Hunter King, Lauralee Bell, Sean Carrigan, Tristan Rogers and even Catherine Bach. It is unlikely but some of them could appear.

Kudos on some of the new shots today - though it again lends itself to reason that these versions are not set in stone. They are a pretty random sampling of folks and we still barely have the contract cast covered.

 

Jess and Kate are both recurring right? It's awesome they are included - recurring means something different now in soaps. Recurring is an accounting issue, not an indicator of commitment to a cast.

 

Are the following people really recurring? When did this happen?

- Robert Adamson (it looks like he actually has a story now)

- Sean Carrigan (really?)

- Hunter King - I thought she was their leading younger star!

Kate Linder is on contract, as weird as it might seem.

Adamson, Carrigan and King were all dropped to recurring status last year.

Adamson in March on the same time as Pernas who played his love interest Marisa. She guest-starred in May along with Adamson then he appeared alone, only for bartending at Nick's club and some family drama. He has no story at all for the moment.

King in September and barely appeared since. No episode this year. Not sure she will appear as she must be trying for better ventures.

Carrigan was dropped in November. He has appeared in December and January as the doctor when needed but was not involved with Jill's current medical story so don't know if he is gone or he will recurr again.

    • I'm not sure they ever had a clear vision on Hart. Other than being the only real instrument that could make Roger pay for his actions.
    • Just an actress that truly knows her own character and plays it so real.
    • Thanks for posting. Is any of her soap stuff, especially from OLTL, available?
    • Lol.  Even if the writing has been slightly better I am not going to claim it

      When NuArianna said "OMG, my cousin and uncle are right there" when talking to Doug 3 I had to pause and remember if it checks out.   It did.  Gabi also hilariously said Ari doesn't know any man in this town she isn't related to so they did acknowledge the log jam of Horton/Brady/Kiriakis blend kids.
    • In my fanfic reboot, this would've all foreshadowed Viki finding her daughter Megan.  They could've saved money on all that Eterna mishegoss.  And, given justice to Cathy Craig for being gaslighted by Tony and Joe.  She wasn't always unstable, but the guys she liked always lied to her as if she couldn't cope with the slightest bit of stress.  Meanwhile, she was probably a much more talented writer than Joe.

      Side note: It is ironic that Dr. Danny and Megan Gordon were on screen at the same time.  He dated, her lover's younger sister. But, if she was born when Viki was 17, and Danny was born in 1971, she would've been at least five to ten years older than him.
    •   New headshots of felon Haley Pullos (ex-Molly, GH)
    • What a masterclass today was.  Great acting, great writing. Episodes like this (and like yesterday's Days) are truly what soap opera is. And I agree with everybody that every character's actions are defensible in some way.  Giovanni Mazza is still shining brightly. His scenes with Jane Elliot were the best part of today. I'm so looking forward to seeing their relationship grow. And I'm also looking forward to what's going to happen with Brook Lynn and Lois, and how they're going to come back from this. Amanda Setton killed it as well. Plus, this is a much better way to use Lois/RS than that My Fair Lady ripoff that they did last year. And I couldn't be happier that Dante's sudden animosity towards Gio didn't lead to the reveal be dragged out for any longer, because with the way that GH is sometimes, I was really worried that it was going to be. This storyline can go in so many different directions and I'm totally here for it. Hopefully, Gio is kept in the Quartermaine's orbit, as opposed to Sonny and his dopey family. Speaking of Sonny's dopey family, I enjoyed Rory Gibson's scenes with Wiley. He seemed believable as his father. But I also thought that his scenes with Sasha were a little...  ehhh. I won't compare him to Chad Duell though.  Trina and Kai were really sweet too. They're no Sprina, but I enjoy them together. And Kai looked hot too

      And despite the height difference, I'm glad that they didn't have Tabyana tiptoe to kiss Jens. That's a Sprina thing 
    • I was saying that they may not bury gays like other shows, but we never see them kissing or making love in a way that rivals the straight couples on the show. And, it hurts because the opinion of "Helen, the 75-year-old evangelical from Alabama" matters, but our strong gay fanbase doesn't seem to matter to the PTB as much. Probably because they know we will watch no matter what. It feels like P&G is still reacting in its 2000s Nuke and Otalia mode.
    • Just another beat that they missed, and they seem to miss them often.
    • Jane Elliot's nuances as an actor are very strong, yet subtle. She masters text perfectly.
