Members Gray Bunny Posted March 23, 2023 Members Share Posted March 23, 2023 And another thing: They need to scale back by 1 actor on how many are shown. The music has nearly faded out completely by the time we get to the HOLLYWOOD LIGHTS Y&R. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members janea4old Posted March 23, 2023 Members Share Posted March 23, 2023 Omg Today Thurs March 23 CDN (Tomorrow Fri March 24 US) They misspelled Tracey E. Bregman's first name! She just celebrated 40 years on the show and you're calling her Tracy? She's TRACEY. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sapounopera Posted March 23, 2023 Members Share Posted March 23, 2023 It reminds me of a cheap 90s european soap trying to immitate Dynasty. The skyline behind the actors is so outdated. The skyline behind the logo is so modern GH and vintage TEON. So not Y&R with its classy and sophisticated intros. At this point I'd be happy with title card with the iconic 80s logo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted March 23, 2023 Members Share Posted March 23, 2023 Is Y&R the only show that's included a cast-center opening on every episode? Meaning no abbreviated opening (like B&B). It's really interesting how the full title theme has always been an integral part of the show. The Red Opening worked for that era - nothing beats some of the most memorable shots: ED, JW and, of course, HT. On the other hand, a decade earlier we had JW pushing down her panty hose and Brittany Norman twirling with her handbag... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted March 23, 2023 Members Share Posted March 23, 2023 Tacky tacky tacky. No one’s checking that sh!t before it goes live? So sloppy and unprofessional. I don’t like the actor shots for this one. Yesterday’s were much better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members edgeofnik Posted March 24, 2023 Members Share Posted March 24, 2023 Will any of the *missing* contract players be added? CF (2021), CH (2020!), AL and SW (both 2022). CH is obviously the most glaring. SW's return certainly revitalized the Abbott family dynamics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted March 24, 2023 Members Share Posted March 24, 2023 I somehow missed this thread and saw the opening today. Wow so underwhelming and cheap. The could have easily recreated the 1988-99 opening on a white background and I wouldn’t have minded it at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted March 24, 2023 Members Share Posted March 24, 2023 I actually wouldn't have minded them recreating the Rex/Katherine necklace scene but with Victor putting it around Nikki's neck instead! that would have been great! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted March 24, 2023 Members Share Posted March 24, 2023 That would’ve been fun!!! I was actually wondering what your thoughts were (sorry if I scrolled past them though funny I found this thread just as I had watched today’s opening lol). I don’t mind the font, it would have been better if it was in gold than the red for the 50th. The city skyline is completely out of place. As far as Y&R goes it reminded me of the Newman Enterprises logo font.

Members SFK Posted March 24, 2023 Members Share Posted March 24, 2023 Y&R could have done charcoal portraits ad infinitum. Those opening titles were sleek, elegant, timeless, iconic. While I understand the desire to try something new, I do not understand how such tackiness gets greenlit. No one on the team said, "Now let's talk about this public access talk show skyline..."? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
