Steffy is a shrew.  However Comma And although I don’t watch much - I did look up from a presentation I was giving, put it on mute, gave people a pee break. And yelled a gutteral MM! MMM? MMMMMMUH!   Finn may have turned dumb, but damn I’d shuck him until there was nothin left but an empty husk.  His athletic lean sinewy needy body. Shewwwww

It really should be so easy for someone to tear Steffy apart for her hypocrisy, but because Bradley is obsessed with the whole namesake and JMW becoming Susan Flannery, I think this is how it will be where Steffy always wins by being a judgemental scheming shrew, without any consequence as Bradley often wrote Stephanie those last few years...

It shouldn't be remotely possible, but Bradley is definitely pushing this agenda cause I really think he's forever resented the fact that Susan got smart and up and left because she realized how Shi*ty the writing for Stephanie was. JMW has been his "new" muse for sometime.

At this point, Steffy is nothing more than one-dimensional antagonist for me. He tried to humanize her again with the Lunatic story... but she is just... incredibly 1 note. This has nothing to do with JMW. I actually like her as an actress and would place her maybe on my 2nd or 3rd place in the show. The only thing I don't like lately is how they are doing her hair!

I agree, I really do want to like Steffy more (there actually was a bit of time I did warm up to her for a bit.) and it's a shame so much potential has been wasted on this constant one-dimensional writing for her....but again that's pretty much how Bradley saw her namesake, and again he's determined to make that stick for as long as he's in charge....

The show will end before Steffy even remotely resemble Stephanie Forrester. Sadly for Bradley, he had the worst luck to FOLLOW his father William Bell... and we know gold from garbage.

Ok then I’m on….I have felt the same because I think, she’s a strong actress, but this is terrible.  Soooo mannnnnny things need to be thrown in their face when those gloves came off.  Like - you and your nutso son, Steffy/Liam/Wyatt just as incestuous as my daughter but she gets a pass?  Etc.

This is the strongest material Bradley has given Scott Clifton in the last 12 months.  God... if Liam was more like Scott... he is such a charmer! And Liam is NOT. 

 

Yep. Someone needs to get these things out in the open. Steffy is not someone who should be throwing stones, when she is living in a glass house.

But @soapfan770 how can you not like someone with such a SOAPY name as Daphne Rose.

Is she campy? Yes. Did I like it? Oh, yes. lol. I was wondering what the point of the perfume designer was. And then that reveal? Oooooo Steffy how scheming of you. Such a soapy reveal. 

 

Ridge continues to be ain't sh&t.

Acting wise? 

Easy picks.

1.Crew Morrow - he is acting circles around the cast. His scenes with electra, are... filled with so much chemistry.

2.Tanner Novlan - that man chose to stay in Bold, when he probably could get in high-budget cinema any day he wanted. So much talent. 

3.Murielle Hilaire - she is giving me Susan Flannery realness the moment she stepped in front of the screen. And that little moment with the scarf! Talk about iconic, girl!

Sorry but not sorry but the Ridge & Taylor, or Ridge 2.0 & Taylee or whatever scenes do not work for me at all, and I say this as someone who was a massive Ridge & Taylor stan back in the day 20-30 years ago.

RB & TK have zero chemistry and feel like complete strangers to me. This might have been interesting if HT or KA were here, but nope RB does not work for me at all. Decent actress but is not Taylor. She could’ve easily been a new character or if we had to a recast of some previous lost love interest ie Alex Simpson, Heather, or hell Shauna lol but no no no. 

At least we finally have gotten Donna involved in this story, spying on Ridge & Taylor and providing intel. Much overdue. 
 

And did I see right:

    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time.  I know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL.
    • 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.
