@KMan101 I agree. The writing for Hilary is terrible. Why again did she insert herself into this Juliet story? And why did she take herself out and grow a concious about it?  

 

How hard would it have been to write her ONE scene with, say Mattie, talking about how important her family is to her to give Hilary a change of heart. This is out of thin air to me although I think Jordan dumping her was supposed to be some turning point and a wake up call. But I'd have to believe she cared about him to buy that. Or was it that she was silently struggling with what to do  anyway since she wanted to talk to Devon prior to being dumped by Jordan? Needing his guidance. Ugh. She's not a child. So is the story that Devon was right to try to control her cause she's incapable of controlling herself? This mess is all over the place and bordering on offensive. 

 

Why don't you like Abby and Scott? 

 

I think the show is phasing EB out. He's on but not ON. If you get my meaning. 

Abby and Scott don't work because both, as individuals, are huge directionless bores.  I like the idea (man falls for bosses daughter he "hates") but neither is doing this story justice.  And the "actors" don't have what it takes to elevate mediocre writing.

I think the actors are bores (Abby/Scott). I do think there's potential, on paper. I like the idea. I don't know. I guess I'm torn on it.

 

I agree about EB. I feel like he's lost interest, but maybe that's me. I can't say I blame him. The writing for Victor over the last decade has been dreadful, but I think he ate up Victor as the moustache twirling villain, but I could be wrong.

 

I have no clue what they're trying to accomplish with Hilary. The Jordan breakup, her scenes with Devon this week. Although seeing Devon and Hilary again I was reminded of their spark so that was nice.

+1

Leslie got that call, saying the tape is ready to play.

 

Sharon  got more chemistry with that guy that was talking to Abby then she has with Scott.

Lol, Michael as a lawyer reminds me of Lionel Hutz on The Simpsons. There is one episode where Marge just goes, "Why do we keep hiring him?"

 

Juliet's lawyer is really fun though.

Angell Conwell (Leslie) has come to show these guys how its done. The single most interesting person in the room!  Leslie crushed stupid Michael.  Gawd, I want her on contract!!!!!

I just can't wait to see Lily face when she finds out her husband is a liar again.

So, Scott going to save Abby from that guy. Or at least Sharon going to sense Abby in danger then she going to get Scott to save her. Where they admit that they like each other.

 

Is Juliet lying about what Cane said??

There are no words to properly describe how ridiculous the writing for Hillary is.  She should still be poking and prodding Juliet, not [!@#$%^&*] crying on Devon's shoulder!

I don't. Y&R can't write for the actors of color they currently have on the canvas properly. It's in AC's best interest to remain recurring.

Sharon is in a love triangle with Corporate Hannah Montana and Grubby Richard Engel. This is why daytime is in trouble.

Sigh...so true!  I hope someone puts her to work.  She elevates every scene she's in!

Since JFP has been gone the casting has been awful. She always had an eye for good talent.
