I loved Trevor on OLTL so much and was excited when he joined last year.

At first he was alright but he seems so bored with this material and is kinda phoning it in.

Zuleyka is a fabulous actress and beautiful too. U could tell 2 weeks ago when Tucker proposed. Trevor seemed so zoned out and unconvincing in his lines while Zuleyka did her hardest to bring those scenes to life as Audra. That’s why I was wondering how people feel about the character in general.

I do think a better pairing is needed for her or Trevor has to get it together. Idk. Sometimes I like Tucker-Audra and sometimes it’s just cringeworthy when just one of the couple is actually giving a damn about acting and bringing it to life lol It’s like a trainwreck where u just can’t look away from. I don’t remember Trevor ever being this lazy on his acting

Why should Nick have any occupation(s)?  Again, write to JM's strengths.  Let Nick Newman be that aging manchild/playboy, who still likes to bang chicks half his age and tries all the time to be an adult but just can't ever get it right, lol.

I don’t get it either. There are and have been so many more actors and actresses that have annoyed me ten times more. He’s Nick to me and I wouldn’t want a recast. 
 

Trevor isn’t bothering me on Y&R either. But I’m a TSJ apologist.

Hey I loved TSJ on OLTL and don’t noticed that back then and thought his acting was good especially with his teen daughter etc. 
But on Y&R he’s like just 40% invested lol 

Like Kahn said there are moments where he just checks out and u can clearly see that. The proposal episode was so hard to stomach and if it wasn’t for Audra‘s actress I would’ve fast forward those scenes even though I like them both as actors. She really fought through that damn scenes lol

Nick doesn't fit in with the Newmans in a lot of ways. That was built-in, and at times has been used to contrast who he is vs. his father's expectations, but with the lazy writing of the last decade, it makes him kind of superfluous, similar to Abby. As was noted by @Paul Raven, Nick was an affordable housing developer for years, and we never saw a single home that he built, and if we ever saw any of the people he helped, it was probably a throwaway scene at the coffeehouse. Under Bill Bell, this stuff came to life with storylines like Margaret and Miles at Rainbow Gardens.

    • The last scene of the final episode did show that life on Wisteria Lane would continue on once the toxic housewives moved away. It won't be as good as the original, but I'm intrigued to see what these new people do with the concept.  
    • This underscores the biggest issue that the show needs to work on.   The majority of the characters on the show are all related to one another, which is why we have that B&B esque Dani/Andre hook up situation

    • It was a good episode. I didn't expect things to unravel so soon.   One thing I still don't like about these big events: Where was everyone else?   This is a big event. Everyone should've been there.
    • Mitch, thanks for that history of the Reardon Boarding House kitchen.  I had always assumed that every time the kitchen set returned, it was a recreation of the original set.  So I have been wrong about that.   Was the kitchen set ever used later, while Buzz and the Coopers owned the boarding house?

    • Do they ever do anything well?  The show is about 4 week story arcs - if that it feels like.  Why wouldn’t you spend a month of subtle hints.  Late to events and don’t telegraph it.  Have repeated issues with time; I had a friend whose Mom suddenly was forgetting half the meal in the fridge to be heated for a meal; twice her husband had to go to her work to get her because she was still working and only noticed no one was there until he walked in to find her and make her come home (it was a doctor’s office, there’s not that kind of job);  knowing she had an appointment and not be worried by it, etc.   No, they have him do a head bonk and bam it’s cancer.     It’s almost an insult.

    • Today showed why almost no one comments on this crap soap. -- We're back to pretending that there aren't SCORES of cosmetics companies out there --  only Jabot and whoever else opens up shop in Genoa City to be the competition. No real business runs this way. -- Marchetti is supposed to be an internationally-renowned fashion house, yet both Chelsea and Sally are ready to walk after being high-level executives there. -- It's not often women leave choice executive positions in their field of expertise to work in a business they're clueless about. -- Sally had a lot of nerve shading Chelsea with "It's easy to see Adam's influence on you" when the same damn thing is happening with Billy. -- I'm glad Lauren told Michael to quit, since we've all been mouthing that for weeks. None of that story is helped by CLB's over-the-top acting. -- The scene with Victoria helping a sick, coughing Cole walk to their car on the way to the hospital was laughable. Wouldn't rich people call a damn ambulance? -- Claire was really concerned, wasn't she? She stayed in the doorway instead of helping her mother, and then headed right to Crimson Lights for coffee. Why bother with checking on her possible terminal father at the hospital?
