Members janea4old Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) Nothing about the conception, birth, or existence of Dominic has been good. It's all been offensive crap around the LGBTQ characters and characters of color ... being of service to rich white clueless entitled Abby, who was upset that she did not conceive after trying for only a few weeks. And then Tessa/Mariah considering adoption which would be wonderful, if it wasn't due to Mariah feeling an empty womb. And then the pings agains Tessa's status. Tessa has stated many times that she is gay. She's not bi. She got together with Noah only as a scam to get money for her sister. She never loved Noah. Yet now they have Noah making eyes at Tessa every day. Devon is made to be the bad guy in the whole sperm donor, womb rental fiasco. Modern families in real life do have sperm donors and gestational surrogates and shared godparents, etc. But Y&R took the potential for a good story and made as offensive as possible. I could say more, but this whole UNENDING storyline makes me angry, and I need to stop thinking about it.

Members Paul Raven Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 I think they're on to something with the birthday celebration. One episode each week could be devoted to a character's birthday. Friends and family could tell them how great they are and they could make a heart rending speech. Bam! 37 minutes of airtime filled. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 Looks like Y&R may have taken the song "No More Drama" too literally. (HBD MJB! Please register in order to view this content ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) Jamey Giddens always wanted to be a writer on daytime. He recently wrote his own nighttime soap Ambitions which was awesome but lasted only one season. Now he's a breakdown writer on Days and says he gets to write one show per week. He seems genuinely thrilled to be doing something he loves. There have to be others out there who love the soap genre and WANT to write.

Members YRfan23 Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 Sort of off topic, but I don’t know if your familiar of B&B Superfan Matt Hanvey that usually posts those hilarious dubbed B&B scenes, but he’s someone who would really excel as head writer for that show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Antoyne Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 I feel same. I only really watch Days and Y&R now, and if they were both suddenly gone I’d be pretty upset. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) In fairness, Jamey's already gotten a show on OWN. He doesn't need daytime to continue to thrive. Edited January 12, 2022 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 When an entire calendar year passes with no enjoyment of a single episode, it's another sign things are bad. We're 14 1/2 months away from the 50th anniversary and I'm still hoping we'll get something big to lead up to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldRestless Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 It was so funny when Nick asked how they got tickets that were expensive and hard to get. Nick is literally a billionaire. When Tessa said she was going to play retro music I was kind of hoping it would be that Hootie & The Blowfish song that always played during Nick and Sharon scenes at Crimson Lights. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 Re: Dominic’s paternity. Why do I foresee this mess coming to a conclusion with Chance & Abby agreeing to joint custody with Devon and asking Devon & Amanda to move in with them. Then for months on end afterward wacky hijinks not seen since the days of I Love Lucy, I Married Joan and My Little Margie occur for the quad.

Members Paul Raven Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 Could see that happening. That way they could rid themselves of Devon's penthouse set and save more $$$$. And cos the Chancellor estate is so huge, Moses can move in as well, and he and Faith can have their 2 eps a month there as well! Now that Micheal has had his moment in the spotlight, how long before we see him again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) More likely, they'll have a desperate Devon kidnap the child, make everyone think he's dead, and then wind up escorted out of town and into the nearest prison while Chance and Abby are reunited with their precious baby.

Members Paul Raven Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 So on Monday, family and friends gather at Society to honor as Michael reflects on the past and thinks about the future as Victor offers him a job. Then on Tuesday, family and friends gather at Crimson Lights to honor Nick as Noah ponders two job offers. And dear friend Phyllis couldn't be bothered attending either event-probably because she wouldn't be the center of attention...oh, wait...she'd make herself the center of attention. Coming up on Wed. Family and friends gather at the Gangrenous Pineapple to honor Phyllis, just because she hasn't been on for two days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 12, 2022 Members Share Posted January 12, 2022 This show is truly a mess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
