Y&R December 2021 Discussion Thread

[Taoboi]

End of year. To better days ahead...

 

 

DISCUSS!!!

Do you think we'll get some type of memoriam for Jerry Douglas? I don't think I saw one during November.

Hopefully Josh Griffith gets nothing but coal for Christmas this year……..

[Faulkner]

They had one. It had that cheap-looking font.

Abby and Chance dgaf about their kid. It’s hilarious. This story makes them both look awful.

Jill needs to be around to put her foot up Billy’s ass on the regular. If not, dude needs to exit stage left.

@Faulkner I must have missed it. Hopefully during the Christmas episodes the Abbotts remember John. Jerry Douglas deserves at least that much for all he contributed to Y&R for 24 years.

I tuned in just to see new Chance. The sets have gotten so small and cheap.

And ED actually looks better on Days than on YR. Did YR fire their hairstylist and wardrobe department?

It might have been the Thursday or Friday of the week the news broke that he died. I was trying to see if anyone on Twitter reacted to seeing it so I could pinpoint the date.

He definitely deserves a tribute.

CLB discussing his 30th anniversary right now

So Abby and Chance's kid is biologically hers and Devon's? Or Mariah and Devon's? Why did he agree to that? Why would a billionaire agree to be a sperm donor? I'm sure there are a number of situations where they would but it's stupid that their sole black male lead (Nate doesn't count) couldn't get his own kid so he gave his to these two losers.

Finally, the fruits of the dynamite Devon/Abby union I was assured would rocket the show to glory are upon us.

A true vision for the future of the show. Two of the flattest characters played by the least dynamic stars!

But seriously...part of the reason I picked that picture above was due to John being in the picture. I would hope to think they are going to do some kind tribute episode. But I am still waiting for the Stuart Damon tribute episode so....

[Soapsuds]

I doubt we'll get anything of significance.

There was nothing in today's show that would make me return to watching YR full time again.

The Jill-Billy relationship is one of the criminally underwritten relationships on the show of the past twenty years.
Even the weird things the writers once did - like writing a strong bond between her and Cane while we used to never see her with her actual kid - could have been mined for great material for years.
How much of how Billy is today down to his mother's inattention? So much stuff there. 
Like so much of YR you can see the gold under the dirt but nothing is picking up tools to mine it.
