Members DeeeDee Posted October 17, 2017 Members Share Posted October 17, 2017 Y&R doesn't care about Lauren outside of Michael/Lauren. She'll share an occasional scene with Paul but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jerry675 Posted October 17, 2017 Members Share Posted October 17, 2017 Has anyone on the show even mentioned that Sheila is alive and well in Los Angeles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted October 17, 2017 Members Share Posted October 17, 2017 Lawd the actor that plays Graham is awful. He may have great looks but damn he can't act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ajsp35801 Posted October 17, 2017 Members Share Posted October 17, 2017 JM is struggling with this story. He's seeming more and more ill at ease as days go by. When he was talking to Sharon, his line delivery was just unnatural. He's better than this. Gotta be the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soaplovers Posted October 17, 2017 Members Share Posted October 17, 2017 This is a major problem with the show, and the other soaps, the pacing is off. Has there been any follow up since the accident at all? It seems like the show will focus on one plot for two weeks or so.. then it gets to a certain place in story and it falls to the background while another plot takes over... and this happens doing important moments that require follow up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members edgeofnik Posted October 17, 2017 Members Share Posted October 17, 2017 Which is a huge miss on the show. Lauren is the perfect Y&R character - legacy from the Jabot-intro era, relevant ties to everyone in town, grown-up bad girl, who is warm/loving/rarely weak, intelligent, solid career, etc. And Tracey has always had that 'it' thing - she just connects and I've never seen her phone it in. Lauren can be dropped into almost any storyline. In fact, Lauren and Jack should Hilary's mentors and friends. DIna's story is resonating. Monday's POP ratings just released: 129 YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS, T POP 7:00 PM 60 0.06 518 Keep in mind, while down from Friday, last Monday's show did not even make the cable Top 150.

Members DeeeDee Posted October 17, 2017 Members Share Posted October 17, 2017 She told them that she and Scott went to visit Alice in the hospital but she'd disappeared. +1. The one thing I've always disliked in the post-Alden years is the need to retcon history for agendas. Take the current Ashley story for example. Traci & Jack tell Abby her Mom has had a single nervous breakdown as if she only experienced the one. Ashley is a strong character but she's always been unable to deal with stressful emotional situations. She either breaks down or runs away. Instead of Y&R writing to that, they have her screaming & becoming violent. Lauren lost any worth when Y&R decided to use her to prop Kevin. All of her previous history was trashed so Y&R could turn her into his number one supporter. Why would a woman who had intimate knowledge of what it felt like to be terrorized AND BURIED ALIVE by a sexual predator suddenly decide a serial pedophile was infinitely redeemable? Exactly.

Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 18, 2017 Members Share Posted October 18, 2017 In those hospital scenes, the first thing I thought of was how unfortunate that Olivia wasn't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted October 18, 2017 Members Share Posted October 18, 2017 Or Nate. Instead we get random dayplayer. I hate to say it, but I would have settled for Barton or Stitch, though Olivia was my first thought as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 18, 2017 Members Share Posted October 18, 2017 Stitch and Barton two crossed my mind, although Barton was treated as if he were little more than a dayplayer himself (did we ever see him outside of the hospital?), I admit that Nate didn't because I was thinking of the relationship between Ashley and Olivia, and if Olivia were the chief of staff, how poignant those scenes might have been with Olivia stuck between observing hospital protocol and loyalty to a dear friend with those scenes where, no doubt, she'd be forced to referee between Ashley, the Abbotts and Graham. ED, BM and even PB did a good job but it could've been even more intense had Olivia been trapped in the middle trying to do her job and keep order in the hospital, while trying to comfort her friend.
