Y&R wouldn't have even needed a heart attack (I also hate the way today's soaps write illness, they are unable to sustain the consistency to deal with life altering health problems). 

Y&R could've have shown Lauren having a series of panic attacks and when Michael sees Lauren in the hospital after a bad panic attack, could've contacted Scotty (and Fen) and asked him to come home.

 

In one of my posts, I had proposed that since Scotty is a writer, once he sees the trouble that Fenmores is in, decides to help write ads for Fenmores to run in print and online as the boutique's revitalization plans take shape. In fact, I proposed that both Fen and Scott step in to help the struggling family business.

Asexual & Gay negotiator agency??

Dumb & Dumber negotiator agency??

It was a story that amounted to nothing!  And where is the change in Lauren that we were promised?

All this would require some thinking from the HW. Some actual planning out of stories....not these 3 week arcs we are getting of poorly constructed stories.

This show is still very boring. The couples being shown have zero chemistry from Billy/Victoria to Nick/Chelsea to Ashley/Mr. Tech Guy.

Hell....Jill popped back up before you knew it after her heart attack. That is ridiculous!  I had a childhood friend who suffered one and he is still trying to recover from it. Sally Sussman's stories are all poop.

Because 1) that isn't really Jack, it's Marco; and 2) he needed Fenmore's for his opiate-smuggling operation.

I think it goes back to Sally's not liking the "Jill Fenmore" idea.

 

Think about it: we don't see Gloria for months.  Then, when she's back on the scene, she's making a beeline for Lauren's family bidness.

 

Mm-hmm.

 

Poor Smilin' Jack Abbott.  First, he was duped into having sex with Patty.  Now, it's Sheila.

      Poor Philip. I appreciate how seriously his and Xander’s scenes were taken though. It felt like real drama and not like a big joke. You could actually feel Xander’s pain and anger. It adds another dynamic to the Kiriakis family storylines and I’m looking forward to the effects that this is going to have across the canvas. I can see them weaving Kate and Roman into this storyline as well. And it would be really nice if this somehow helped cause conflict for Stephanie/Alex too, especially because of what Alex did today. With any luck, Stephanie will be furious about it.  And I’m glad that Sarah has Maggie to confide in about her secret. I also liked seeing Steve and Shawn (and their matching jackets

      ) continue to be on the case. Kevin, revealing everything to them is another interesting turn in this storyline. Plus, it seems the writing has improved for Shawn as well.

      TBF, I don't think we've seen her interact enough with the "have-nots" to know if she is or isn't. It's possible, but I don't think you can say that from her interactions with Eva and Silkpress.

      You're right - though I did confuse his name with an actual actor who was on Dynasty.

      "Might" is not "is". And I was talking about the specific case about her attitude to Eva.

      But she can still be a priveliged elitist. She might have the same attitude to anyone from 'the wrong side of the tracks' whether they had an agenda or not. Nicole seems to be an outlier in her family.Her parents, kids and sister seem to think themselves above reproach.

      Damian's clothes have definitely been a specific look -kinda reads 70's pimp to me . I guess it's a trend?? but it seems more suited to Holden. JR is 51  and I guess Damian is supposed to be a little younger but it looks a little odd on him in my book. But at least they're trying. The men's clothing has been bland/generic for years-either suits or basic casual stuff interchangeable  b/w them.
