Y&R May 2024 Discussion Thread

Indeed I was glad to see Lily get nasty with Heather as well hopefully we’ll see some more of this. Haha Lily snatching Billy away from whatever it is he has with Chelsea would be doing him a huge favor to avoid falling into the dark void of nothingness that is Chelsea.

It seems to me the show is starting to revisit some pairings that actually worked. First we got Adam and Sally back together, then we’ve had MM Kyle and AL Summer sharing a lot of scenes lately, and now Billy and Lily again. Maybe Nate & Audra can be next?

Fingers crossed!!! re: Lil vs Heather.

 

Yeah I am curious to see how Kyle and Summer will be post-kidnapping. Because they were sparking as upset parents. 

 

Nate and Audra...a matter of time...

Have not watched steadily for years, check in even less than I do on B&B - but The show on Friday was throwback spectacular. And I saw a bit the other day of Ashley looking as if multiple personalities? I was interested - bring it. I’m watching again more often. Haven’t seen the sentiments on the board in a long time.  But this was interesting stuff.  And even actually believed Eric B/Victor’s line to Jack “stay away from my wife”.  This depiction of addiction is a respectable swing at it, I’m a recovering alcoholic, which is forever.  They’ve done a good job of this over the years. Much better than B&Bs sometimes alcoholics.

OMG! The therapist is real??? I continue to just let that be around in my head. It would have been more interesting if Ashley had just made him up to get the Abbotts off her scent. That said...always happy to see CC. And I liked his intro with Traci. Speaking of Traci...Traci vs Diane...I can be for that. BM continues to be good in this storyline...along with ED and her new persona. Sad to see the other one getting control. But it was a well done scene.

 

I liked the Devon/Nate scene today. One thing I continue to love and like to see with the writers is ALWAYS having the tension between them there and beneath the surface, waiting for good moments to boil to the surface. And the scene this did did that. Cuz I was sitting there like Nate going...here goes Devon again. RME. Happy Nate checked him by reminding him that his way of doing things again was part (only part) of the reason they had a (very good) rivalry. And happy to see that Devon did not (okay a little bit) take it personally since he DID ask. #growth 

 

I'm sorry. I giggle every time that I see Victor and the cage. And I don't feel sorry for Jordan at all. Happy to see Claire found. Also happy to get that B&B reference between Michael and Lauren.

 

Awwww....poor Nikki. MTS be selling it though.

Today’s 5/6 episode featured a cameo by Sharon to remind us that yes she still is on the show; that said the two scenes consisted of Phyllis and Sharon awkwardly giggling and making goofy faces at each other. Just totally bizarre!

No wonder there’s speculation of some BTS drama with Sharon Case at the moment based off on that strange moment alone.

 

Glad you enjoyed it as well, the first 3 days of May last week ended on a high point. 
 

The weird Sharon scenes aside, Monday’s episode does at least have a nice emotional fallout scenes between Jack and Diane and Kyle and Summer.

    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

      Btw, if he’s on again, you should apply to be a contestant
    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...

    • Haven't seen today's ep yet but so will be interested to see the clothes. So far I think they have been very character specific (even if I don't like some of them eg Kat's cutsie style) Anita is very showy/glittery, Nicole classic elegance, Dani sexy/bold colors etc. Unlike Y&R which seems much more generic. Also BTG pays attention to the men's wardrobe and has developed a style for the boyz-which is harder to do with male fashion. The absence of any of Derek/Ashley at any of these big events again demonstrates how they are in a different universe to the rest of the show. Not that a nurse and a fireman would be there but still they seem destined at this point to stay in their own lane and have little interaction with the core of the show.
