Ouch!  Brenda Barrett and/or Vanessa Marcil are ugly and unglamourous.  This conversation has already taken a very dark turn for me

.  Perhaps you haven't heard Brenda Barrett was the second coming of Angelina Jolie and a world famous supermodel, whether you like the character or actress or not.  Lol!  It's not that serious.

Sure, if you say so, Sasha is a big deal.  Two buffoon reporters should spend their time trying to get dirt on her and wasting airtime.  Since Deception is a huge company and a big deal perhaps they should have vetted more aspiring models for their spokesmodel search though.  That's all I am saying.....

I MIGHT agree with the unglamourous part these days, but as the #1 (and sometimes only) VM/Brenda fan here I cannot allow my posts to have any Brenda/VM related negativity.  Sorry.

  I still think Brenda would get more clicks than Sasha based purely on previous awesomeness, overall contributions to the world and my personal viewing experience. 

Honestly, I don't even care if she comes back.  The ship has sorta sailed on that.  It's been a long time.  I just always assume she'll pop up at the end to whisk Sonny off when GH gets cancelled  moved to Hulu lol.

Chase. Sweet, hot, perfect Chase, if you're behind on your rent, you really shouldn't be paying for a pass for the Metro Court pool, just sayin

Still love that Britt has no time for Cody's crap. But yeah, all this matchup stuff with Spinelli is DOA

It's sad that the fans and Digest did more to celebrate her milestone than the show. She's barely been appearing and she's a supporting character in her own story. It's insane. I wish we knew the full story. Her popularity cannot be denied, she's still young and gorgeous, she's a strong actress with range and she's connected to everybody. Writing story for her should be easy, but they refuse to do it. It's so odd that she only seems to be employed because they can't deal with the fallout of firing her.

I don't get it either. Does she have to bitch and complain on Twitter like NLG to get recognition

My guess is FV knows that she has a large fanbase that'll support her regardless of anything, so he uses that in order to elevate characters who are pretty much DOA, and who also happen to be his friends. Nothing to do with him disliking BH. Just the fact that he knows that she could do it.

He was too busy recording videos of himself dancing to "Who Wears Short Shorts"

I have always felt Guza completely lost interest in her after the initial rape story and her romance with JJ's Lucky.  He still wrote for her, but it got progressively worse.  Becky seems to inspire viewer loyalty, but her character doesn't seem to inspire writers.  The regimes after Guza have used her because she is popular, but never in a meaningful way.  I think she's always gotten pushed aside by writers faves like Courtney, Emily, Sam, even Siobhan etc.  I am not sure why but she just doesn't seem to connect with the writers like she does the audience, but no one seems to want to try behind the scenes.

    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
