Y&R May 2019 Discussion Thread

Speaking of that, they need to stop having Lauren/Traci in scenes where they act as if they’re old friends. I get that people mature and move past childhood drama - but how many of us would care to sit down and have a casual lunch with someone who bullied you in high school? Acknowledge they know each other, but don’t pretend they have any reason to be close.

It was a joke.  Considering the fact that Bakula stays busy and Desperate Housewives is the closest to a soap that he's ever been, I wouldn't expect him to do Y&R, especially the mess that the show is now.  It was a play on the Scott Palmer and the idea that any "Scott" would be better than having Traci trapped in a pairing with Cane.  I mean, unless people want her to get trapped like Lily did.

 

Colleen and Lily were best friends, so I doubt they'd go there with Daniel and I can't picture Colleen with Fen.

The only reason Traci/Cane is happening is due to feedback that viewers want to see more of Traci and Cane is at a loose end.

No way are they going to send Traci to college(new sets required) or get a suitable love interest(not going to hire an actor over 40)

Not sure how far they will take Trane ?

Is that the first scene Traci/Lauren have had in years? I agree there should be an edge b/w them but Lauren lost her bitchiness years ago (to her detriment). It would be interesting if Earth Mother Traci just couldn't lose her resentment of Lauren. The scenes would have more spark if that underlying layer were there.

As recurring, would Beth be using her own clothes?

As for Jack and Lauren again it's a case of budget and putting together 2 characters already there than hiring an age appropriate actress for Jack (not happening) and finding something else for Lauren to do.

Now Leanna back to stir things up and hook up with Jack could be way more interesting...

Yep that was my idea!!! 

 

I mean if this show can build new sets for everyone else and their mother. Then please construct a GCU set for the woman who won the show's first ever Emmy. Have Traci initially butt heads with the new president of the university somehow they begin to fall for one another. Perhaps one of his children also attends GCU who bonds with Traci and vice versa who "lost" her mother at an early age. Meanwhile, Traci sees this girl as a reminder of her beloved Colleen. She and the University President starts dating each other whilst his other daughter comes to town who could work at any of the five hundred companies on the show dislikes Traci for taking away her "Daddy."

Believe it or not, Bakula was on Another World as Quentin Mills in 1983, before he landed Quantum Leap.

 

 

I wish Traci had a better option for story. It's great to see Maitland not having to shed tears every day. I don' want Trane, but if the story leads to Traci opening herself up to romance once her book is done,(with an actual scene partner other than Cane) then I'll sit through the b.s. until Traci moves on. (Just please, not every single day.)

Sigh.

 

If you're reading this, Thom Bierdz, take my advice: let it go, get (more) help and for God's sake, sue the hell out of whichever hack inked those tats.

    • I have a feeling it was either coincidence or it was an idea whose time had come. Remember Bill Bell was also into the psycho-sexual. So it was happening more than one place. Pete Lemay began disagreeing with Irna quite early on. He shut up & listened at first, naturally because he had to learn the basics. But, as soon as he had, they began to have arguments, disagreements. They both were devotees of character-driven but the similarities stopped pretty quickly. Bolin as far as AW was concerned was nuts & bolts, or more $$$. It was all about the numbers. And the numbers were great, double the ad revenue & that went to the network. As far HTSAM was concerned, that was her baby, no one else's. It is so funny to me that Lemay started this by accident.

    • What did you all think of Hogan/Patti compared to the stuff with Liza and Sonny? Did you buy anything about Sonny and Bela? Has a recast ever decentralized a character as much as Sherry's exit did with Liza? Or do you think that would have happened even if Sherry had stayed?
    •     I think the three comments pretty much summarize my thoughts. The green is not pleasant. I think I know where they were going with it, but it doesn't translate on screen.  The bar at Uptown is actually pretty good. It's my favorite part. I totally get it having an East Coast vibe. I used to frequent a place like it and while I wouldn't necessarily call it pretty...it was a bit Kitsch but it had a vibe. This place is lacking the vibe. I know it's not easy to hire extras, but even having a karaoke night in the background or live music would change the whole feel.  Vernon and Anita having breakfast there was a great idea. Another place besides the country club where they could talk. However, why were they using country club china at an establishment like Uptown. It just seems a bit confused. I don't understand what it's supposed to be. 
    • Add me to the list of people who like Tanisha Harper as Jordan I never understood any of the criticism of her, to be honest. She's gorgeous and she's solid in her role. Sounds like a soap staple to me.  
    • Thanks for the walk down Memory Lane!   (Can you imagine what the synopsis for 2024/2025 will look like 50 years from now?  It'll basically just be a flowchart of who was the CEO of which unseen corporation, lol.)  
    • Yes . Its time to get these folks outta their clothes lol.
    • To all the fans of Paul and Lauren on The Young and the Restless:

    • Leslie is extra but she's told the truth about what happened back then. They were in love, at least he led her to beleive they were. I never go the impression that she was crazy or a hot mess when they were involved. From the bits that we've heard, it seems more like she got bitter and jaded over the years but when they had their affair? She was all good   Ted shouldnt stress getting Eva anything. Like he just go her an apartment, no to mention a job. I think his continued attention and presence in her life mean more than material things he could buy   June definitely knows those kids. She was lying bc she doesnt want to answer what happened to said kids
