It’s too stupid for words. Granted, the whole story was stupid, so it’s a blessing that it’s over, but this is the pattern. Dumb sh!t drawn out, then abandoned.

Jason Thompson deserves better because he’s actually doing good work.

In service of bullsh!t.

Whatever happened to ashland? He seems to have become a supporting character when he should be instigating stuff.

Devon needs to guzzle a giant can of STFU. He agreed to be a sperm donor. Abby and Chance are giving him access to Dom and he's acting all put out that he can't have a bigger role in the kid's life. Too bad.

Traci was drafted in to replace Jack in her scenes.

I don’t know what they’re doing with Devon. It’s one thing to give him a sense of regret, or if they really pushed the idea that Abby and Chance were neglectful parents. (Or if Chance was having PTSD that made him potentially dangerous. They’ve toyed with it.) But this makes him look terrible, and the resulting drama isn’t strong enough to be worth it. 

The surrogate story has been an albatross for all involved.

This is why I hate surrogacy storylines on soaps: the sperm/egg donor inevitably becomes so attached to the baby that they end up making life hell for the couple who would otherwise be childless.  It's become a cliche, and it paints a very negligent picture of surrogacy.

Y&R under the current powers that be are in the process of ruining yet another character.  This time, Devon, who's being an a-hole for thinking about suing for custody when he agreed and signed paperwork to say he would have no ties to Dominic.   What's next?  Amanda, saying she snuck a clause in so that Devon can get Dominic away from Abby & Chance?  SMFH

Pretty much. Yikes!

If anything at the very least I think better drama would come out of it if Devon began desperately wanting his own son and began pressing Amanda to bore and/or adopt a child. Amanda is very hesitant/reluctant about it as she wants to be more stability and also a bit apprehensive about it as she remembers Hilary was pregnant when she died. Imani however becomes close to Devon and a lot more open to hearing of Devon’s plight, causing friction between the three. 
 

But the show would actually have to write for Imani….

Imani reappears to flirt with Nate - again, and Elena grimaces.

They needn't have bothered taping that scene as it's been played several times. Just insert it from a previous ep.

As for high drama, Phyllis is being sued by an unhappy client over the Escrap Club. Several minutes were spent on that nonsense.

Business intrigue in the corridor at Newman Media.

Amanda and Imani are going great guns at their new law firm! You know, the  one we have never seen .
