No it's not.  Y&R is very grounded but also very boring in recent years.  Bring on adventure and an attempt at excitement!

You can do grounded stories that aren't boring, it's just that no one wants to write them! Quite frankly all the soaps are boring as hell right now. That's why I'm getting back into writing my own.

That's so cool! When I was in my mid-twenties (?), I wrote my own soap opera. It was called Moments in Time. The fictional city of Dapricworth had much history and I had my trilogy of bad girls. Anastasia Preston of the Preston family was the worst and I loved her so. 🥰 Good times.

I have written a few soaps over past 25 years. One character I've always been attached to is Cali Claybourne, she's a bitch in the vein of Belle Clemens. She just bitch because she wants to be!

I’m curious how they’re going to use the three prisms because according to the 1985 episode I just watched, Shane dropped the third prism into the middle of the ocean 

According to this summary, Shane only got rid of one of the three prisms when flying over the Atlantic.  Given that it was found eaten by an alligator after the first time Shane threw it in the ocean, it could still be found in the ocean by a passing sailboat. Perhaps one navigated by Ben and Ciara?

My question is, given the modern political atrocities, does anyone think that they will mention that the prisms were discovered by a Russian scientist?

Also, I wish they'd bring Larry's legal lover Gwen Davis back, she was one of my favorites...

The first prism was the one that got eaten by an alligator. Stefano’s henchwoman, Nurse Honeycutt paid an alligator poacher to find it and bring it to Stefano. 

 

Tomorrow!!!

Can't wait to discuss it with y'all 😁😁

Haha!

I would've been like you had they added Will and Sonny to the cast. At least will see Chandler this week on the main show.

I wonder what time episode 1 will be released?

Usually, they release stuff at like 3 AM, right?

They were late with Season 1 and Soap Twitter was pissed 😂

I believe it was 5am eastern or 6am eastern? 

I hope Andrew is in episode 1.

Haha maybe. But judging from the synopsis, idk. It all depends on how much time John and Paul spend at the Pride party 😂

You'd think Andrew would be at the Pride party.

I'm thinking he isn't because we didn't see any pictures of him there. 

Just finished watching it and I enjoyed it. I can't even begin to say how much I loved the opening credits. See what can be done when you have a little more money to spend. I still don't understand why NBC/Sony or whoever can't up the budget for the main show, just a little bit. 

It was good to see everybody having fun. The Johnson family reunion and of course John!! That was a side of John Black that I never thought I'd see 😂😂 And it was nice to see him cut loose. He's been the same way for decades and to see him do something different is great. And welcome back, Paul 😍

It's also nice to finally meet Andrew and see that he's following in his father's footsteps.

And I know y'all don't like Steve Burton, but I thought he looked good. Especially in uniform 😍 And also agreed that pineapple on pizza is a crime against humanity 😂😂

I'm curious as to why Megan had John and Steve kidnapped though. They weren't even on the show yet during the original three prisms storyline.

Didn't expect Heaven to be a cringey campfest though, but it was great seeing Bo and Loretta Devine. They actually had pretty good friend chemistry.

And, is it just me or was Ciara's anger at Hope totally out of nowhere and a little unjustified?
