Y&R June 2022 Discussion Thread

Yes. It’s nice to see this side of Phyllis again as MS hasn’t played this side of her in years. 
 

There was something a while back about Heinle and Luckinbill doing something together for Easter…? I had thought they had divorced but apparently they have not. Who knows. 
 

I’m not sure what happened to Graz. The show use to bend over backwards for him work around his movie filming schedule and when he seemed to get recurring primetime gigs, but it seemed like the moment he finally left for bigger things, those bigger things just didn’t materialize anymore. I remember he did pop in a couple times to visit GT Phyllis and it was just surreal.

Oh ok. I found it weird that they had split, then they started working together on Y&R in a heavy domestic violence story.

Just checked Graz’s Instagram. He’s on Amazon’s David E. Kelley series The Lincoln Lawyer in a recurring role.

Thanks for the Graz update. Lol as for Heinle one may also have to wonder how she felt about her other ex Michael Weatherly being, well until recently,  employed as a leading primetime star for the same network. 
 

Having Walters back in and become the show’s thunder has at the very least caused MS to step up a little. It’s sad because I clearly remember her absolutely fantastic during the pool house fire mystery and the fact Phyllis saw Kyle as her replacement for Daniel, so I like the sudden rage, but…MS still does a lot of scenery chewing and her pronunciations just don’t sound right.

You know what? At this point, I'm going to need Ashland to lash out now that Kyle and Summer (and Victor) did the restraining order on him and he can't see Harrison. That is the only real father he has known and it just played wrong for me. 

 

Diane is playing Phyllis like a fiddle and I'm here for it. That Diane smirk when Phyllis lost it in time for Jack to hear her was a thing of beauty. She doesn't have to do a thing really. Phyllis will always be her own worst enemy.

 

Yeaaah Elena's dream was funny. But...given how her and Nate got together...she should be worried.

It’s really masterful how easily Diane is playing Phyllis. Walters is so good when Diane doesn’t have to just listen to people berate her. She’s brought so much life to the show, I’m really bored on the episodes she’s not on.

Yeah now that Diane got her foot in the door and have people that audience care about giving her a chance (LOVE the recent scene of her and Tracy of all people bonding as well as talking to Allie about Abbott life), SW has been playing Diane as remorseful, but make no mistake not a pushover, channeling so much old school Diane for me. And her needling Phyllis shows so much THAT Diane. Even her catfight with Nikki before Nikki and Victora went on their trip was so much an AD Diane moment for me. I LIVE!!

Oh definitely I enjoyed NuSummer and Sally finally encountering each other that was fun! 
 

What was not fun is the foreshadowing prospect of Kyle/Chelsea. What is that, a 3rd close encounter now? Don’t Kyle and Summer have enough drama going on without a very unnecessary character make a very unnecessary intervention in their lives? I’d bring back a recast Theo. 
 

Jack & Diane’s brief scenes were more fun and watchable than anything Newman related.

    • Today is Sean Freeman's birthday

      His social media/IMDb doesn't have his age but from some posts he's made, I'm guessing 1989 is his birth year.
    • Here's the timeline, as I recall it being published. The WGA strike was 5/2–9/27/2023 Annalynne McCord was announced as being hired in December 2023, for a one-year contract https://deadline.com/2024/06/days-of-our-lives-when-to-expect-annalynne-mccord-peacock-1235975806/ RonC's first scripts back from the strike began airing May 31, 2024 (around Konstantine & Maggie's wedding) https://www.tvinsider.com/1137709/days-of-our-lives-writers-return-15000th-episode-storylines/ Her first air date was June 19th 2024. The actress has said she was not told who she would be playing until she started taping. RonC 's replacements were announced July 2024, with his scripts airing through April 2025 Side note: DAYS social media team seems to be playing fast and loose with BTS videos, in terms of how far in advance they film content, so we shouldn't assume anyone's current status, versus those who were there nine months ago.
    • April and her husband (Draper) are the "young leads" who tie all the storyline threads together.  They're normally in the center of the action.  In this particular storyline, Draper is the attorney who represents Paige Madison.  (The district attorney, Logan Swift, has given Paige Madison "temporary immunity from prosecution" if she will lead the police to the members of the Tobias Gang who stole the firearms.  But Paige mainly just ducks bullets from various gang members who pop-up to assassinate her.)    
    • It's one thing to post about a soap's rumors or gossip, which in point of fact we've all done. It's another to present yourself as the inside source who knows something to be fact that's about to break wide, then backtrack and call it just Twitter speculation. Between those two extreme poles you have to commit to one or the other. If I got something wrong, I'd say it. (Nor would I keep playing insider after what I pulled with Drake Hogestyn, which should've gotten someone permanently banned.) And regardless, you don't open with this 'news' you don't actually want to stand by yet by mocking DRW's extremely valid concerns re: how the Trina character and Tabyana Ali has been marginalized and put out to virtual pasture ever since the day NAC left. Her playing out her current contract in a C-storyline with Kai does not change that.
    • Yeah, I thought it would be more explosive or heated and it was kind of standard.  Both can do more with the material.  I just don't think the writing was there.
    • Daphnée and TMG are on Instagram live (as we speak) and are saying they don’t know why Maurice left.
    • Anita let SilkPress know what time it was!
    • Kat vs. Eva and Anita vs. Leslie were today's highlights.
    • TBF, the majority of Month 2 was them beefing up all the side-stories...mind you Duprees as well as non-Duprees...and it did not seem like people were taking to it as well as they were taking to stories in Month 1. If anything I feel (hope) that May Sweeps is going to shift...while dealing with the aftermath of the Nicole/SilkPress storyline...to the next big story aka Martin's Secret. But that's me hoping that Martin's meltdown over SilkPress jiggles some memories of his out...which I was already hoping would happen. Add on that Bill is involved in both stories now...that might be his way of being sure nothing happens to him now in light of SilkPress's antics.    And...same. I feel they did a better job than expected with Vanessa/Doug with me because I didn't even realize how invested I was until their talk at the hospital and Doug made that subtly blunt comment about their arrangement...making the various online discussions online real. And for me, relevant.
