Y&R September 2022 Discussion Thread

Yep. Nate's actions are purely plot-driven.  Not character-driven because he has no character!

I really enjoyed getting into the classic episodes that aired during the 2020 covid break, and then finding links from here to other old episodes.  The character of Nathan (Nate's father) had good and bad in him.  It would be so easy to write Nate as having some of Nathan's characteristics (even though Nate was partially raised by his stepfather Malcolm). 
It's right there!  But Griffith doesn't care to bother.

ParamountPlus (and its predecessor CBS-All-Access) keeps ONLY the current season of Y&R up on their site.  That's been the pattern for the past several years ever since CBSAllAccess began.

So if you're behind in watching Y&R and want to get caught up, and aren't bored/annoyed and really want to see it all...
Get caught up now.  The current season (Season 49) ends Thursday Sept 29, 2022.
Then they will delete all of Season 49. (Except for the last few episodes of Season 49 which would remain online for only a few days and then get deleted as well.)


I don't why they chose this date, but they are debuting Season 50 of Y&R on Friday Sept 30 and soon it will be the only Y&R you can watch on Paramount Plus.

All I can say is that this is what they did with Y&R every September.  Don't know if that's the plan this year, but it probably is. So catch up now if you want to.

Of course I hope that I'm proven wrong!  I'd prefer that they left stuff online.

(B&B is different. They leave their stuff up for years on Paramount Plus.)

I loved Sally for standing up for herself against Adam and telling him how he is disrespecting her person and her wishes.

I really felt this. I get Adam here to be honest. But Sally is right. Adam has to respect her wishes of being left alone. 
 

Great dialogue all around in this episode from 9/19… Adam even questioned Nick and if this was somewhat like payback after leaving the family company even though they were getting along pretty well lately.

The new Summer has really grown on me. She feels like Noelle‘s Hope when she came to B&B

Diane/Phyllis plot and bickering was boring. But Jack finally calling some shots was great.

I really start to like the Imani replacement. Wish she would stick around tbh.

Nick and his moral compass again. We act like he never did anything wrong lol 

What is it with Joshua Morrow and being on air 5 days a week? Is it in his contract to appear in 240 out of the 255 in a year? I love Joshua/Nick but I have to say that he’s quiet overused

9-14

 

That was pretty good. It focused on everything that I wanted to see...and one thing that I was surprised that I cared about. All it was missing was Diana. lol. But perhaps it was because it appeared things were moving.

 

I knew it was coming. And that bed was looking empty for tooooo long for Nick so I am not at all surprised he and Sally got it on. I thought they laid the bonding scenes the last few days on a little thick, but I thought the acting throughout was good. And that hand touching was lame, but...then it grew and that chemistry popped. And then Adam came to the door. Looooord. And that dinner with him and them? This is going to be messy. 

 

Devon vs Nate DID explode a bit. And I loved they touched on just about EVERYTHING. Neither are saints so it was evenly matched. And they ALMOST came to blows...which they really should have. Loved Nate called Devon out on him sucker punching him as much as I liked Devon saying it was all about Nate no longer being able to do surgery. And then poor Lily still stuck in the middle. And that last shot of Nate with TempImani coming around the corner....oooo.

 

What surprised me was the Victor/Jack scene. Or more the aftermath with Victor and the punching bag. Awww at him actually being sad that Adam is under Jack's wing. Father pain...who knew?

9/20 was great. I loved Nikki in LA and the old flashbacks of her with Deacon tied into the story. Great stuff. 
There was this theory that Adam didn’t hit Delia that night and it might’ve been Nikki. But what if Nikki was hanging around drunk with Deacon and Deacon was driving and he hit Delia ? That would be such an amazing twist lol 

I was so excited to have Diane back on the show. But now where she is settled back in I just don’t care for her character anymore. Phyllis character the same. I usually love Phyllis but she became so boring. I only liked Summer/Kyle telling them that it doesn’t matter who does what and stuff that they both will be out

    • 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.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
    • I thought Emily/Hal was a really interesting pairing. And I think KMH played that version of Emily very well! It might not have been what people wanted from Emily, and the writing got pretty gross at the end, but I thought she embodied that character effectively.
    • Don't know if this exactly fits here, but it is connected: Does this abandoned building look familiar? It is one of those explorer videos - and the outside may look VERY familiar if one watched GH in the '70s and '80s!

    • So, I have been in the hospital all week. I am close to being up to date on my soaps. Now I have to go to the Infusion Ctr daily to get IV antibiotics, for 6 weeks. I am frankly exhausted. A hospital is no place to be when you're sick. Hooked up to machines that go beep beep beep all day & night long. Someone wakes you up every hour on the hour for something, either to stick you with needles or to take your gosh-awful blood pressure for the umpteenth time. So, you don't get any sleep. Now I have a central line, upper right chest. After they "installed" it, I said, I am now Borg. They just stared at me. Apparently scifi is not general knowledge. What happened? I have an infection inside my big toe right foot & it burned the skin on my foot. The burned skin is already better. It was like a bad sunburn. The infection inside the toe is the issue. Oral antibiotics won't even get its attention. So, IV antibiotics plus time.

        As Salem bids farewell to John Black on Monday, the "Days" family and fans say a final goodbye to Drake Hogestyn.   From his time as a young man playing baseball in the minor leagues for the New York Yankees to his almost four-decade run as John Black, Drake always did his best. And, while becoming a soap opera icon, he spent almost 40 years at "Days" telling the best stories and taking the younger cast under his wing to make sure they would do their best as well. Thank you, Drake, for the legacy you have left for everyone at "Days." The impact you made on the cast, crew and fans will never be forgotten...and that's a fact.
    • I found an interview with Joseph Breen (Will Jeffries) where he mentions that Reva was put in a coma so Zimmer could go to Hollywood to do a pilot (OMG, if ONLY it had been picked up, LOL) and that Sonni and Josh and Will became a popular with the audience while she was out of commission.  If you want to read the whole thing: https://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewarticle.asp?id=47394 Breen was known for being very candid in interviews, I wish I could find more of them. I seem to recall he made a couple of snarky comments about Zimmer, implying she was not above acting like a diva. Sounded to me like he had a lot of respect for Forbes (who went on to have a very strong and varied career after GL).
