Members ajsp35801 Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 I think JT meant it. But I doubt it's the last time he puts his hands on her in anger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 Since we basically know that JT is dying, I'm hoping he's Nikki's next victim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dax7000 Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 I dislike Victoria, but the ice queen attitude makes sense given who her father is. I wish the show would truly address the double standard of Victoria being called cold, yet Victor being tolerated. I don't want to go on a rant, but a lot of soaps have a steady history of characters tolerating truly vile behavior from a male character ((Victor has done downright evil things)) while criticizing strong and ambitious women ((Victoria, Hilary, Jill back in the day). Not that those women don't deserve to be criticized at times, but are we really going to believe they are so god awful when someone like Victor is not only tolerated, but called a victim whenever karma hits him?

Members MichaelGL Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 Mal's Y&R is giving me Ellen Weston/John Conboy GL vibes. "Let's have a character do this just for the sake of saying the show has tackled such a storyline." Sure it's entertaining, but it's also destructive as hell.

Members Antoyne Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 HOLY [!@#$%^&*]! I hate that they have Sharon falling for Nick. Morrow and Case will always have excellent chemistry but why can't they just stay friends. The Dina scenes were so sad. Poor Ashley sitting there while Dina remembers a childhood memory but literally has no recollection of her as an adult sitting right there with her. I like that they've removed the silliness from the story but it suuuucks. I want Dina around for years and she's just getting worse and worse. The JT/Victoria story was good today. I don't know if I believe JT's apologies. He's been a huge douche since he returned and I just can't see this ending up being an isolated incident at this point. And that proposal just seemed so manipulative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sheilaforever Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 It's been a while that I saw ANY scene of current Y&R, but this was interesting from a production standpoint. The set looks very real and the directing is pretty good. Storywise I'm not inclined to give the show a chance, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 This show just burns through story. Very much a nod to Psycho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xtr Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 I thought Victoria's/JT's scenes were well written too. I thought those scenes were well written and that both Thad and Amelia did a good job in those scenes. I thought they came across as very realistic .I bought them as a couple in an unhealthy relationship that has turned abusive, even though Victoria doesn't fully realize that yet. The writers having her slap JT helped clouded her perspective of the situation and caused her to blame herself more than she should for what happened. It was like she was equating her behavior with JT's, even though JT has been worse and will end up being worse. And her also trying to use the idea of "honesty" to make their relationship seem better than what it is. She's acting like the way JT is treating her is mostly him being honest, when it is really controlling and abusive behavior. I also wonder in what other ways he might harm her physically. I wonder if he will flat out hit her or do other things like push her, or cause her to fall down somehow and injure herself without striking her. If he does the latter things, I could see him trying to spin those things as not being abuse. Maybe he will do something to her and try and paint it as an accident or something.

Members DeeeDee Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 Besides JT criticizing what Victoria eats nothing else he's said or done has been abusive or controlling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Dax7000 Posted March 22, 2018 Members Share Posted March 22, 2018 I'm so torn on JT and Victor. Victor's never hit a woman, but he's done so much that it's hard to root for him. I'd prefer if Nikki just kills again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
