I suspected as much.

Tyler, the cop played by Diego from GH, the other cop played by Joey from OLTL, Austin, Stitch, the scammer who worked at Newman, Scott, Arturo and now Chance. I feel like I'm missing somebody too lol, I think she was still with Carmine when she first started and they teased Abby and Devon for a second til the height difference shut that down

 

I liked when she was feuding with Victoria over Newman and I think she did good work at the end of the marriage with Stitch. Always thought she was too old and not dynamic enough to be Ashley and Victor's daughter tho. The character was set for failure the moment MAB recast the little girl who played her for years and they turned her into Paris Hilton 7 years too late to be interesting

 

Nate...so make that 10.

Lol. There are so many of them on set, but he was the most obvious one of course so probably just collateral. 

Abby is the only Abbott-Newman kid whose existence has some kind of meaning. She should be driving story. I always thought that MO's Abby would be much better in a vixen role, getting involved with a married man and ruining his family. Think Kimberly Simms during the Roger/Alex drama or a new -less fragile- version of Ashley with Victor and Nikki. 

I couldn't stand DG as Cane, but I could see Abby in a very dramatic affair with him during his marriage to Lily. 
It's a pity that Y&R has no idea what to do with the Chancellor mansion. Jill should be living there. Alone. 

Abby's character has no meaning or discernable character core other than 'stupid blonde.' Ordway is not capable of being a lead and has had endless failed stories. She should be written out for a minimum of five years. Just being Victor and Ashley's daughter is not an excuse anymore.

I wish they would've done the Mindy Sue Lewis inspired storyline a few years ago. Abby works best if they actually tap into her corporate side. By getting her out of owning restaurants like she is Lisa Miller Grimaldi from As The World Turns. Have her go back to Newman to contend with Victoria and Adam for the throne of the company. But we know JG rather have Victoria being her only employee.

Some of you insist that MO being capable of headlining romantic and/or business stories.  I just don't agree.

People are bamboozled by her bloodline. There is nothing there and there hasn't been since she was first SORASed. She has no personality beyond being a joke and every storyline she's ever had has ended in miserable failure. Melissa Ordway has the range and depth of a pet rock.

 

I know who fucked to give birth to Abby. I know how much potential she SHOULD have. It doesn't matter. She doesn't have it now. She's been onscreen for what, over a decade? And everything has been a disaster. The actor is bad. The character is nothing. Countless legacy characters in daytime (hello, Sarah Webber) have been deemed radioactive with far less airtime and exposure. There is nothing you can magically retool here on a dime. Abby needs to go away for a long time. Move on with your lives!

The Newman kids all feel pretty stuck right now. They need to really rethink that part of the canvas because it’s not working (and hasn’t in many, many years IMO).

This!!! Nick has no purpose but to play video games with Phyllis and try to convince Sharon they need to be softer on Faith. Nick... that didn't work when you were parenting Cassie in the last year of her life. How about meeting Sharon halfway with Faith. And Nikki is Miss Ellie from Dallas now.

And Victoria is stuck in the Billy vortex and on the Newman Enterprises merry-go-round. They need some completely new dynamics.

That, I most definitely agree with. Perhaps when one of the Phillip Chancellors come to visit, they stay with her. Maybe even Nina.

The show can have a long-running gag that Jill always invites Nina to stay at the Chancellor mansion when ever she's in town. Then they start bickering over some minor quibble, (or a larger issue-could be Chance, e.g.) leading Jill to complain that she doesn't know why she keeps inviting Nina back, leading Nina to chide Jill about them being family. Jill rolls her eyes, knowing, deep down, that Nina is right.

She could even look up at Katherine's portrait/picture, convinced that the old dame is laughing at her, and gives some response like "she is not like me, and I am not like you!"

Actually, nobody fucked to give birth to Abby.

 

Ashley stole Victor's sperm from the sperm storage facility and secretly impregnated herself with it.

Whatever! Same difference.
