Well he modeling career is taking off after 30 and we're supposed to believe that

She was after 30 AND was about 3 feet less than an average model:

 

 

SuLu had personality & charisma which made Erica a believable model.

 

CK? Not so much.

Maybe you have a hard time with the age because CKLily is pretty but she doesn't have the personality of a model but look at past characters such as Dru. She was a model and a very successful one at that. She was way older than Lily but she had it goin' on all over.

I liked Reed/Mattie's interaction.  I'm glad they're not going the "they hate each other at first" or "the cool guy making fun of the nerdy girl" route.  

 

 

I like their interaction too, I was smiling all thought their scene. Even though it was cheesy.

I didn't buy that Erica Kane could be a model either

 These modeling stories are usually unbelievable to me.they always feature women who could never be models.

By the time Dru's child became a teen, Dru's career was over. I loved her re-entrance in Genoa City in 2004 because I thought it was realistic. Dru became too old to model and came to grips with that. She had to create a new career for herself, which she did. 

Saw most of the week.

 

Seems like the main stories was The Quest for Chloe and Hillary Stumbles onto Cane/Juliet and plots revenge.

 

B stories: Dina, Billy v Cane

 

C: the kids.

 

Add me to the Reed/Mattie likers. It was cheesy yes, but I did like it so far. Now if they do slow, I might get into it.

 

I LOVED how they are teasing out this flashdrive thing. Thursday ending on it was something else. But like I said, I want it to take a bit with Evil Cane before a downfall. So it's working for me.

 

It's nice to see Chels determine to get Chloe on one hand and movement is definitely being done. Love her getting back to her grifter tricks to get there. Edgy. But how far can this plot go when the show let EH go (yes, I saw her on Fri, but still)?

 

More Dina please.

 

I noticed someone mentioned there' s been a slight shift in the writing/direction. I would agree. May it keep going.

Why hasn't Lauren had much to say about Victor's treatment of Scotty?

They did say she was just on recurring and not gone gone so her popping up makes sense.  

Well in that case...

Just catching up, but the Dina story has been good. The actress is phenomenal, but that's a given. I would love Traci and Jill in the story, but schedule doesn't always permit it. And I'm fine with that.

 

That scene between Eileen Davidson and Eric Braeden was solid. The show has definitely improved its rhythm. The music has also been on point.

 

Scott and the actor needs to go. Both are insufferable.

 

I'm also intrigued by the Nikki/Victor storyline. Melody looks ravishing and I like that they incorporated her MS into the story. I'm really looking forward to the benefit. I also enjoy the actress that is playing her business assistant. They have great chemistry.

 

The show is dare I say on an upswing? Stories are finally developing naturally.

 

Not sure why people don't believe CK being a parent to 2 teenagers? People have kids young, meh. Edit: If CK is 29 now, then unless she drastically ages from now until 32, it's not that unbelievable. CK is pretty, not the best actress, but she works when the writing is there. I also like the teens, and don't find them insufferable.

The last thing Ashley needs is another businessman. She & Ravi aren't bad.

 

The problem is the writing isn't addressing three things about Ashley. WHO Ashley is now, WHY Ashley is the way she is now, and WHAT does Ashley currently want out of life.

 

Instead Y&R keeps making Ashley unpleasantly irrational and Ravi a glorified Gary Stu which is why their story continues to fail.

 

I don't think the writing needs to beat us over the head with that. Eileen Davidson is doing a good enough job IMO

I'm so tired of MIAMISHEALMISCHAL Morgan running around being the secret HAG hack with secrets.  I hate Hillary.  We're TIRED OF THE PLOT DEVICE PEOPLE.  You have made her a JOKE.  I think she's actually a decent actress STOP MAKING HER A JOKE.  You watch 5 minutes and it's Hillary running around sabbotaging people and it's been going on for MONTHS.  (Hillary:  Look evil - look evil sideways, then Grin : from the Director).

Give a  bad disk/hard drive from Mariah.  Have Mariah and Devon THANK YOU for TAKING A DELIVERY TO SOMEONE ELSE!  Wow.  That wouldn't be suspect.  Wow, WOWSA Hillary...you'd really take my USB DRIVE to LILLY for ME???!  WOW!  THANKS GIRL!  THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!  Good lord. 

 

 

I think it's just you. I'm enjoying Hillary just fine.

 

Does anybody watch the show and just enjoy it around here or is all just criticism all the time? I'd sooner turn off the tv

Watching because I have the day off. This show is actually somewhat watchable and much better than it's been in... a decade?

 

some of the camera pans and shots they are doing are reminding me of old Y&R.

 

the girl giving Lily all this sass is really good!

That'd be Mishael Morgan. Arguably, one of the only reasons to watch Y&R. 

I forgot to watch today. Did they show the teens today?
