 This show needs to rotate the Newmans at this point because there are so many of them. There's hardly room for anyone else.

 

Newman Whack-A-Mole™!

Well, I hate to say it, but I agree that the entire Newman family is just running in circles at this point.  But what the hell else are you gonna do when you have two potentially interesting characters being portrayed by two of the most nothing actors in all of daytime?

This is one of the few times Sharon could help the Newmans but SSM is content to let her sit around doing nothing at Crimson Lights.

Yeah. Though today they did have her sort of defending letting Faith live with Victor to Phyllis and Jack.

 

Chelsea, and then Sharon, should have been leading the charge looking for information on Adam's death and then going after Chloe. But for some reason they had to have Nick huff and puff and play the hero.

That isn't all she wants to serve Scotty.

Now that Sharon is slowly going back to her original self she should slowly be rebuilding her relationship with Victor and acting as a go-between for him and Nikki (who she has also reconciled with) while also serving as a sounding board for Nicholas. The show could even take the time to repair Sharon & Victoria's relationship by having Victoria seek Sharon's advice about raising a teenage boy. 

 

She could do all of that AND still be studying for school but the show is too busy having the Newmans banish Victor from the family for the billionth time to do focus on character based writing.

I agree with all of that. She did work with Nick a bit in the Chloe thing which was nice that they were hateful towards each other, or Nick wasn't spewing bile towards her. And like today Sharon was all but defending Victor so there are glimpses of that Sharon. But like a lot of things, it falls short of what it should be. If we can sit here and come up with all of this, why can't they?

Another SSM revision: Victoria to Billy: You'd never hurt anyone for revenge.... except for the week that was Y&R highest rated in 10 years. Other than that...

 

On the plus side:

1. I'm glad the 'real' Sharon is back - I'll give props to Sally for the work that's been done therel. However, Sharon doesn't have a story and should've been more involved with the Newman - like daily - since her daughter lived there!

2. Noah/Tessa was an interesting test

3. EB still knows how to work it when he wants - from rage to tears -  only time I've enjoyed Faith in a scene during this regime - making Victor cry.

Now you know that'll never happen even though it should. I've been over Nikki for the longest. I find her more repulsing than Victor at this point b/c she excuse his actions and then later defends him to the death to others. 

 

 

She has three speeds. You've forgotten murdering people. Lizzy Borden Jr. stays doing people in and getting off scots-free. 

Ha! I keep forgetting that. Didn't she once have a story about killing some childhood friend? I can't recall how it ended.

As of 2017 Nikki has killed 3 people (4 if you actually wanna get technical).

Yes and her daddy supposedly covered it up or some mess. That's why I feel Nikki can't cast judgment on anyone. I've always wanted Sharon to toss that in her face each time she'd call Sharon "destructive." Sharon should always call her "murderess."

Nikki's public intoxication, including the time  poor Nick found her passed out in the snow, combined with her Victor obsession, has been the reason I can't handle her judging others. Now I will add serial murderess to my reasons for giving her side eye when she's uppity towards most others.
