Y&R: June 2017 Discussion Thread

@DeeeDee- now I HAVE sided with you MOST of the time in MOST of your SON debates and I don't think we've EVER argued, so I hope you will take this as the gentle criticism that it is meant to be.  You literally just took the tasty bait that those posters were serving up and gorged on it.  They sort of made you show your ass, in this instance.   When that happens, your posts and arguments lose credibility to the readers, especially when the comments and arguments begin to come off as petty.  Then when you are having an actual debate, even when you're on the right side of it, that memory of pettiness is there and can be used as an argument against you to take away from the valid points that you are indeed making.  It's a nasty, classic political tactic and you walked into it.

 

I have gotten to know you and your posts over the years.  You are passionate, intelligent, and often fierce.  Please try to take a step back at times, look at the big picture, and you'll see when traps such as these are being set.  The method you then use is instead of falling into the trap, you acknowledge and call it out (which is what I have swooped into this thread and done).  I hope this helps and I get an "Amen" instead of a (-1) for this post!!!

I am thoroughly enjoying the sexual harassment SL!  My problem is how Hillary was used to make it interesting and then she just tells Juliet she's on her own?  Hill is supposed to see this thru by continuing to manipulate Juliet.  

 

For those who don't believe Hillary has a motive to be involved?  She wants ratings and the icing is sticking it to Lily.  That's plenty motive, but YR falls short once again.

    • On the subject of sets (seems more interesting to discuss than the actual show)  Some sets we don't see anymore Lauren/Michael apartment (haven't seen that in years) Victoria's house (are Marian/Tessa living there?) Apartment above Crimson Lights (I think Chelsea was the last resident) Penthouse (Lily's home) Chancellor Estate (Devon/Abby) Chancellor office (once Dark Horse) Nick's house GCAC room (used as residence/hotel room for several characters) Some of these may pop up again. The tack house,for example, was not seen for many months before being used again. Have I missed anything?
    • Thanks for searching through everything. Worked on them so long, just too lazy to check for those links myself, so I am glad you chose to do it! I guess I never did type out anything for 1973-1977 in regards to the preemptions, but they are on the charts at least (and this far back, they don't seem to do any of those "breakouts" anymore, so things are simpler in the 1970's, so eventually I could type those out). 
    • I dump on the Y&R sets problem all the time, but BOLD is no better -- and they're not even introducing new sets. All of their sets are years old, and very few look like they're inhabited by people with money. Is that going to change with this move? I'd rather they save the money spent on another remote, which is no better than an HGTV travelogue, and get some new/better sets.
    • The donut posts here make up for a Friday show that was barely meh. Aside from seeing Anna, I really didn't care much about anything else. While I understand the thought behind breaking up all the sadness with "other scenes," I'd rather they moved right to John's funeral. Instead of hearing a stupid story about John changing some minor character's tire 20 years ago, just move on to the crying. I also thought the Chad and Cat scenes were a waste. I realize not everyone is devastated by John's death to the point of not functioning, but going sky diving is a choice. By the way, Jack and Jennifer are giving me nothing on this return. Please leave asap. DAYS did such a great job with John's death, so ending the week this way was a letdown.
    • Add Dr. Montgomery to list of fine women on this show! I hope the show goes forward with Madison/Chelsea and then once they're developed, bring back Allison, who is now divorced or a widow, for a Madison/Chelsea/Allison triangle.  It would definitely be the hottest triangle in daytime.  
    • I wonder if Linda Bloodworth-Thomason had Kim in mind for any of her other characters/series. If they intended Allison Sugarbaker (Julia Duffy's character) to be more in line with who Suzanne was/Delta Burke's portrayal-persona, then I think Kim would have aced that. Yes, it would have been odd, Kim having previously played a different character (from a different family), but Designing Women wouldn't have been the first show with that issue. Or maybe Kim could have played Beth Broderick's role on Hearts Afire. Or Patricia Heaton's role on Women of the House.
    • Sony is probably waiting until Y&R’s lease is up as well. All of TV City is going to be gutted, so they have to relocate at some point. 
    • At this point Y&R's next step is to go fully green screen and have the actors Zoom from home.
    • I was just taking about this in the Y&R thread - they desperately need better studio space.
