I think the filming styles are very similar now since they both have an obvious A story adam and Hope/liam/steffy now is that a problem for me? No hes my favorite character. But i do understand since i had to deal with victoria 24/7 under sally.

Also is the angelica lola mandate gone this soon? No lola in a week and a day

Anytime they show flashbacks of Victor, I’m amazed at how little effort EB puts in now. I know he’s getting older, but you have Bill Hayes on DOOL, who is in his 90’s still putting in work effortlessly.

 

Its a damn shame how little Dina is used these days.

 

Were we supposed to feel sympathy for Adam today? You didn’t know Victor was your dad so you became a monster?

I don't ever recall Y&R hitting 2.6 in the ratings and losing to its sister soap in the ratings either. Its time to cancel this mess of a show. Is it salvageable ...yes but no one cares anymore and the HW only write what they want and don't care about its audience. Griffith redux of something that was done long time ago and put to rest has been atrocious.....

No, of course viewers' demanding quality entertainment are not the problem.

 

The problem is TPTB's relentlessly and endlessly-incompetent decision making. 

 

The fans are not responsible for the networks and sponsors recycling hack, untalented or just clueless writers and producers who have long, proven track records of failure; writers and producers who have failed on soap after soap, yet keep getting rehired to continue damaging a genre they have already helped decimate.

 

Viewers have the right to demand and expect good material. It's completely the fault of TPTB for never making good on that mandate.

    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
