Y&R April 2024 Discussion Thread

They did sign a name actor to play the psychiatrist. I hope to God they don't force him to have a French accent.

[Taoboi]

See? That I knew about. But I figured that was someone based in Genoa City or the U. S. because it seem clear from how ED has played the character every time France and therapy was brought up, that the person in France she saw after Traci left didn't exist.

Another Steven Lassiter for Ashley?

If you are a week behind, and want to remain unspoiled,
then *DON'T* play the video.

Posting this here because it's for week of April 22-26,
and all of these scenes have now aired.
The video is various scenes from different storylines from that week.

I think everyone has seen some of Eileen's storyline and the "reply tweet" is what counts here...

Note the reply tweet from Eileen,
in which she comments on the response from the fans to her DID storyline.

Another example of an actor enjoying scenes that may not be so well received by viewers. I caught some of Eileen's Southern Belle...

[BoldRestless]

If that display counted as mental illness then what about Phyllis? She goes down to that lounge and does that all the time, even takes her clothes and hair extensions off, too...

[Sapounopera]

Oh God. This is horrible. Days of Our Lives horrible.

It's so funny that no one in the Abbott family has bothered to tell Abby that her mom is losing her marbles. Has no one thought to call her???

I could care less who runs Chancellor-Winters...snore.

 

[Faulkner]

Not that JG doesn’t have his own history of DID stories going back to his work with Michael Malone on OLTL, but this Ashley stuff does feel very Carlivatiesque. A little goofy, a little campy. 

Again, why is Abby still on this canvas?

Abby might as well be an orphan the way neither of her families include her in anything important going on.

4-23

 

And here we were just talking about C-W last week and how nothing was going on there and BOOM!!! Devon wants Nate back on the board...bringing their rivalry full circle. WHAM!!! Lily checks Billy and wants to reduce his role. BHAM!!! Jill appears and all @#$ breaks loose. And now they are voting on the lawsuit. I admit...the swiftness with which this is going down has been shockingly good.

 

Two different plans and STILL no sign of Harrison or Claire in sight. Oh, dear.

 

Watching AL unleashed as Summer on Kyle was breathtaking. I have always mentioned how much I love AL as Summer, but they have been downplaying her strength as an actress. So it's great to see her being allowed to show what she got because in those moments when she lets loose, Summer looks like her mother's daughter in terms of fury. I was also happy to see MM match her step by step. A nice dramatic dance.

4-23 (okay more lol)

 

Lily vs Mamie. She's just reading everybody, ain't she? Can we keep her bitter like this? lol. I didn't see that coming at all. 

[not impressed]

Literally, the alcoholism with Nikki needs either a spot on show with her at rehab or keep her (not a preference) a drunk. Nikki is what me and my friends are really walking away from, from watching the show.  New tines, either kick habit or show you have them in rehab

This OCD story with Connor.

My God, make it stop. This is a PSA, not a storyline.
