This was so lame.  I'm going to go back to just reading updates and check on on the board once in a while.  The building can collapse any second so they put a hardhat on Jack and send him in.  They didn't show any firemen in there, and then they just come walking out with Billy???  I screeched laughing, hahahahahahaha.  Then he chats and sits on the back of the ambulance - coffee klatch.  No paramedics for smoke inhalation....no immediate trip to the hospital???>

 

Didn't the Underground already collapse with Jack and Victor in there or something? I was a couple of years ago or so....I could have sworn they were in some building collapse which is all just rehash if I remember correctly.  God awful stuff.

There was a building collapse with Jack and Victor stuck together.  I don't recall if it was the Underground or part of that horrendous LML story that had most of GC residents in some remote development that blew up or something.

 

Today's show was awful.

When will they learn that this type of stunt never works on a show like Y&R?  AMC did a better job BITD with the Holidays and Mardi Gras explosions; and I say that as someone who HATED when AMC began doing that type of stunt-based storytelling.

So I found it - googled it because I was pretty sure there was already a building collapse/disaster at The Underground.  This is all garbage.  This was the month of disasters on Y&R back in 2015.

I wasn't expecting Victoria to slap and fire Billy

 That and Billy running to Phyllis instead of her were the best parts of this desperado sweeps stunt/emmy bait episode. I like that Brash and Sassy is back under Newman and Billy and Jack have finally moved on from the feud because its high time for new shifts, I hope he ends up back at Jabot.

Absolutely chilling?  Oh you've GOT to be kidding me.  Fire "story?"

  It's only gone on for 2 days.  Nothing has even happened.  But you're right.  The "steaks" are super duper high.  Honestly, they would have been a tad, just a tad, higher if Maddie was her correct age.  Even then, zzzzzzzzzzzz

And good GOD- this isn't even close to touching the fire at Gina's.  For starters, we actually liked that set and miss it.  But that wasn't even done as some lame event.   JT rescuing Colleen and bringing her out of the fire!  Brad finally accepting JT as a good guy- there was so much emotion in that sequence- the stakes were legitimately high and it was so well written and executed.

This shizz is for the birds!  File it under "NOBODY CARES."

 "Visionaries" don't mimic.   And "refreshing" generally means there's been a shift and something new and needed has come onto the screen, not a jackhole copying another jackhole.
 

 

Please link me to where he said "come on in."  It seems to have reallllly stuck with you.

    • Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show. 
    • I thought I had stopped & then I saw this post from you. To be clear I said I was wrong. I have not made an attempt at any backpedaling. There is literally no place to back pedal to. I did 3 things. I deleted. i apologized. I said I was wrong, egregiously so. 
    • I think bringing Dano back to OLTL as her original character Gretel/Rae was a last minute thing because P & G wouldn't let ABC use the Felicia character. So even though she had ties to OLTL from back in the day, she just didn't fit into the OLTL of the late 90s/early 00s.. nor did she really fit into the other soaps at ABC either. 
    • I don't think they were the biggest factor, but I do think there's a specific style to Dano's work that wasn't helped by how pointless her character often felt (and later on the various writers clearly saw the character as a joke).
    • I think Evie came in mid 1976 after Rita broke up with Tim because she realized she was leading him on.  And Evie became upset with Rita because she didn't tell her that she had previously dated Tim before she came to town.
    • Please stop, you were wrong, and you know it, now you're trying to back pedal. You even got called out by the DAYS actors/actresses on Twitter for that sh*t. It was disgusting and vile and IMO the family should have taken action against you It was clear the general public did not know about his illness and it was NOT your place to "spill the beans" just because you run a Facebook group, period! TBH IMO @Errol should have banned you ages ago Donna 
    • Who went bowling? JFP & Anna? Is there any more to this?  
    • Another character driven show with interconnecting plots that make sense. I like that we go from one character, like Sarah, learning that EJ wants to buy the hospital, casually mentioning it to Xander who now has that intel. The only down today was not seeing Steve and Shawn breaking into the lab. I wonder if Dr Poofy Hair will inform EJ about Xander's call. I loved Abe talking to Chanel about losing Isaac and giving her comfort. And helping her voice her fears about Johnny. Kayla standing up to EJ is great. Kayla, freed from Ron, has been great. I am loving all her air time. And Sarah telling her that EJ must be up to something if he wants the hospital is very smart. She would probably clue in to the sepsis research being the big thing if she wasn't choking to death. I assume Felicity messed up the scones and dropped in cleaning fluid or something. Sarah said it tasted weird. They are never getting that honeymoon, are they? Xander has no clue what job Johnny can do. Johnny knows this too. Xander wants to legitimize his takeover by hiring a Dimera. Johnny wants to stick it to EJ. The honesty is refreshing. I want to like Cat and Chad but they are just so awkward. And none of their scenes work for me. Marlena and EJ was very good. I like her wanting to help him but also scared to death for Belle. Makes perfect sense that she is conflicted. I also liked her softly asking Johnny if he needed her to stay once EJ walked in. Ron never cared about this relationship either, but now she is acting like his granny.
    • Sorry, catching up, and the bolded part, yes! Should have been sued by DH's family for that nasty sh*t too   Anywho, back to the show, Kristina is freaking nuts, she needs to be committed ASAP
