Members dragonflies Posted February 27 Author Members Share Posted February 27 I'll be shocked if BOLD gets more than a 1 year renewal lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LondonScribe Posted February 27 Members Share Posted February 27 It’s the first American soap I truly fell in love with, so I’ll always back it to exist, and I’m happy it will continue to do so, even though I don’t watch it right now. However, from the perspective of someone who remembers what it was, I wish the powers that be would re-examine Josh Griffith. It looks like the show is very much his, top to bottom, and as much as I want to jump back on, I fear it’ll hurt to see what it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AMCOLTLLover Posted February 27 Members Share Posted February 27 Nice at least one soap stays until 2028… B&B will definitely follow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kalbir Posted February 27 Members Share Posted February 27 So Y&R will reach its 55th anniversary in March 2028. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted February 27 Members Share Posted February 27 I wonder what said deal entails. Will we see even more austerity? The show feels bare as it is. It’s still so weird that something as Jetsons-sounding as 2028 is four years away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted February 27 Members Share Posted February 27 I'm just happy that everyone working at Y&R still has a job and that the show will make it to their 55th anniversary. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted February 27 Members Share Posted February 27 Good for the show and those who get to keep their jobs, but Josh Griffith needs to go like yesterday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BetterForgotten Posted February 27 Members Share Posted February 27 Honestly, that's some of it, but I also don't think Josh Griffith knows how to manage the show's budget either. Vivan Gundaker mentioned in an interview that she was surprised by how much bigger Y&R's production staff and budget was when she got there compared to what she was used to at ATWT. That had me asking myself - why does Y&R look as bare as a show on the verge of cancelation then? It doesn't make sense other than incompetency at the top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 1974mdp Posted February 27 Members Share Posted February 27 While this is great news, the show desperately needs a new writer who will do more than endless "stories" about vague companies and people job switching. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 27 Members Share Posted February 27 (edited) That's about as far as I can go. Admittedly I never really felt the emotional connection to Y&R I did to the P&G soaps, but I still respect the show's history and grew up watching it, and I'm glad for the cast and crew. I'm also glad a daytime soap will still be on as the genre needs to stay alive to possibly be restarted. I just wish the show wasn't what it has been for the last 20 years.
