TK’s acting isn’t bad, per se, but the corny dialogue (and, yes, those hysterical blue-tinted flashbacks) isn’t doing him any favors. Ridge talks about Carter like he’s some orphan he picked up off the street and raised. It’s paternalistic in a VERY off-putting way.

The only reason Carter is being featured more is because of Beyond The Gates. 

I kept waiting for Ridge to show the pic of Eric and Stephanie to Carter and say that's who he was stealing the company from.

11-22

 

I almost forgot about it. I guess it says something for Y&R and GH's November Sweeps vs B&B's. But seeing the article on the main page about the rating bump, I wanted to see what was going on.

 

*looks around*

 

Yeeeah, I don't get it. I did like the suspense of Carter trying to get Ridge to sign the papers. And Ridge almost had me. I almost thought he was going to have a brain. But alas. lol. 

 

Uh...Remy kinda cute. lol. But his interactions with Electra give me pause. She seems happy to see him. So is the story that Electra is worried about a stalker, but doesn't know who it was, OR does she have another secret coming on top of that secret.

 

KKL BETTA SELL THAT FRIDAY CLIFFHANGER SCENE!!!! lol. Brooke eavesdropping, running straight to Ridge, and basically gathering him will never not be funny.

Just like much on this show, we're told but never shown. How were Carter and Ridge BFF's? What was their connection? It's like when they used to tell Carter he was "family" all the time.

LSV is a gorgeous man and has always deserved more than they have given him as Carter. I wish he could have gone to BTG and really been given some worthy material.

I saw a clip of Brooke and Hope semi-fighting about Brooke overhearing (her main focus of life in the last 5 years). Even though it's hilarious in a way, I just don't see this lasting for more than 2-3 more episodes. Bradley Bell doesn't know what the hell to do with the show and it's a complete trainwreck. New storyline every week. Yawn.

    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
