YR: Tracey Bregman 40th Anniversary

[janea4old]

I know!  I mean Genie Francis wasn't available for Days as Diana but casting Judith Chapman as Diana was just awful.  I mean, Carlivati has this thing about doing all this wink wink stuff for Rikaart that never works.

[Darn]

Is the show them sitting around reminiscing?

I'm not going to spoil myself on what clips they show, but curious... do they even show the award ceremony? Or is the whole episode just them sitting in the lobby and Lauren telling her story to Fen's boyfriend?

Can SONY dig out the old Eileen Davidson plan out of mothball and have Zach Tinker do both DAYS and YR?  I love him as both Fen and Sonny, especially now that Fen is gay.

Awards ceremony not shown. Apparently the award was given before the episode started? and now they are in the restaurant afterwards just reminiscing as Lauren tells her story to Fen's boyfriend.  Phyllis arrives partway through and Lauren reminisces about her, too.

Here's the Canadian day-ahead recap of the episode, if anyone wants to read it, it includes screencaps:

LOL, that is so tacky that they didn't show it. So they could have just done an episode where Fen wants to introduce his boyfriend so they go out to dinner, like with Allie and the Traci/Ashley episode. No need for them to make a fake awards ceremony.

 I guess they blew the budget for the month, because Fen's boyfriend has more than 5 lines.

He can actually sign the Eileen Davidson contract because he's on recurring on Days. He's being doing a lot of chats/gaming as of late. He had one this morning.

He could do both shows.

I see a lot of fans excited that they made Fen gay, but that just cements the fact that they'll never use that character lol. If he couldn't get screentime straight, he's definitely done now.

[Soapsuds]

There's nothing else to be excited about where YR is concerned.

I recall when ATWT had the Hank storyline about him being gay. It wasn't even my favorite storyline at the time because Maryland had other stories that I enjoyed more.

How things have changed.

ugh I’m pissed off though Fen is getting more action on Days then he will at Y&R..

With Fen's little boyfriend having more than 5 lines, and possible residual payments to Doug Davidson, Grant Cramer and Kimberlin Brown for their clips, their $16.86 allotment for the month is gone.  The rest of the January episodes will probably be Billy Abbott, alone, doing a podcast, in an empty restaurant.

Yet no Doug Davidson in sight!  Tragic!

[dragonflies]

Sadly someone said it looks like they might be bringing Billy's podcast back lol
