Nick wishes he was Victor.

 

Heads up for Canadians, your Global station may be airing Monday's Y&R earlier than usual due to coverage of the Dell Technologies Championship.

Kyle is more Victor than Nick.

Hilary's death fallout has too many weak actors who cant elevate this material in this story.

Holy Sh.it Cane is disgusting. He totally threw Neil under the bus to Devon to try and get him to change his mind. Mind you, I've always thought it was weird no one ever brought up what Neil did to Hilary,  but Cane is certainly not the person to do it.

[Roman]

The latter now. storylines start with a bang ony to whimper out and disappear.

I'm tuning in after a month or two away and OMG

 did budgets drop dramatically while I was gone? I cannot get over how flimsy the sets look and how poor the lighting is, especially during Cane and Lily's 'bedroom' scene at the top of the episode. Was that a broom cupboard in CBS Studio City?

 

Bryton James was great yesterday and blew everybody out of the water. Everybody else was pretty meh.

[Faulkner]

This is Mal’s “primetime” look.

[DeeeDee]

Sharon & Mariah are being wasted on Tessa.

It's DISGUSTING that Y&R has made CANE the patriarch of the only minority family on the show.

IA with you. It's deeply offensive that a white Aussie is 'leading' the Winters. If Neil is 'unavailable,' then it should without a doubt be power-player moneybags Devon.

 

There's also something about the way DG plays Cane... like Cane is slow. This gif illustrates what I mean, after he hits Billy.

 

 

Bet Cane Ashby will be the one 'Winters' member left standing on the canvas once they finish dismantling. I have heard no rumors of him leaving or going on recurring.

 

 

I read his ridiculous interview. It's embarrassing that he comes from UK soaps where the lighting and some of the outdoor sets are of pretty high quality.

 

Seriously, I was shocked at how it all looked. In the space of under two months! I mean, I know JFP trashed the Y&R production aesthetic with her shitty generic taste, but it is really noticeable to me Monday's episode that the budget has taken a hit.

[Faulkner]

He’s delusional if he thinks anyone is buying his sh!t. And I don’t think we’re close to bottom. They are going to light this show with flashlights taped to helmets before it’s all over.

[frequentsoapfan]

Tessa needs to go. And then they use Kyke to prop Mariah's relationship with Tessa when he has more chemistry with Mariah than she does.

[koos]

Cane is unpleasant to the extreme. DG darts his eyes as if he's on some junk.

 

Tessa/CF might have been tolerable if this show had acting coaches or actual directors.

...

 

They don't... right? Because, if they do, it speaks volumes of how little they care. It reminds me of Days where, afaik, they're given a script and thrown to the wolves. All it amounts to is a debilitating load of personal tics that no one BTS will shut down.
