My goodness, could SSM have more deep-seated h8 for Hilary? Knowing Hilary's history, I'd believe her reaching out to Mattie was genuine and not to get dirt. And this was the first really bad (forced) writing for Lily in a few weeks. The nonsense that if Hilary didn't get Juliet to file the suit, her world wouldn't be crashing down. C'mon! After Lily being strong,  no way she'd feel this way - the suit exposed Cane as a liar and cheat. Better approach: Lily thanking her - even in a backhanded way - that would felt genuine. But this was all done for purpose of trashing Hilary, probably to set-up inevitable Bordon, someone not worthy of Queen H. 

 

Everything is Hilary's fault. Her keeping that video hidden will be the catalyst for everything that has happened, including Juliet's pregnancy as if she put Cane's penis in the woman herself. 

 

I don't think SSM hates Hilary. She just sees her as an expendable nothing/nobody of a character whose ONLY purpose on the show is to be used to build up struggling characters or characters they care more about. Next up on deck: Vikki. 

 

You're right about this being a set up for Jordan and lily getting together but please don't do some partner swap. I do not want hilary with Cane.

Why is the Mattie actress so damn awful? To make it worse, it seems Reed is almost stunted to make her look a little better.

Y&R is recycling Daniel & Lily scripts for Reed & Mattie.

I don't remember one being brainy though... & keep reminding us.

 

I wonder if they going to change the story up where they have sex on the run.

 

Also CK going to be out of place confronting Vikki like Dru & Phylis confrontation.

What I wouldn't give to have scenes of Dru with Juliet and Hilary! Especially Hilary, because I know Mishael Morgan could hold her own I'm those scenes!

It's so obvious. But with so very little character  development for Reed and Mattie and without two popular/polarizing capable actresses* to play the mothers, it just doesn't resonate. 

 

* I know some folks aren't fond of MS but she made Phyllis entertaining.  Dru vs Phyllis was entertaining on levels that Billy vs Cane nor Lily vs Vikki will never be. 

 

I really love Mattie and Reed. I love how she is so intelligent and he loves that about her as well he thinks she is beautiful too (she is beautiful inside out. I'm being a sap but I truly like it. It's refreshing.

 

@ajsp35801 I don't agree. I think it does resonate.

Abby moving into the the tack house is stupid. Even by Y&R's current standards.

Really? I just don't feel it. With lily and Daniel, they'd both had things happen to them in the past and current that made me really care about their happiness. I wanted it for them cause they'd struggled. Reed and Mattie are missing that element. They're really cute but I'm not invested like i was with lily and Daniel. I care because of who they are related to. Not because the show gave me a real reason to.

Their 2 different stories. I'm not going to lie I loved Daniel and Lily too and I mean I hated they were torn apart. I just love Reed and Mattie too and I feel it is 1 of the stories written better than some of the adult s/l/s. It can be perfected. I just feel they have a lot of potential. They seem better than some adult stories which should be telling.

Maybe if we weren't told how intelligent Mattie is every two seconds and perhaps if the acting was there. As of now, it just seems trite and cliché.

They are two different couples so of course it'll be different. But I was responding to @deedee points about them recycling scripts. 

You have to know that the final thing Victor will do to spoil Nick & Chelsea's relationship is to broadcast that Adam is really Christian's father and that Chelsea has been withholding this info.

I don't see the resemble of Daniel & Lily story with Mattie & Reed. All stories have our parents doesn't like each other. Now if they decide to have them run away then Cane & Vikki bang along the way. Then I'll say it's a repeat.

 

Because CKLily came off needy & weak. Mattie is different.

Lily wasn't needy or weak. She was disrespectful smarth mouthed brat who needed to be slapped across the face more than she was.
