Not so sure about that, wasn't Victoria living in the tack house at the time. http://youtu.be/p9OfNsR4wHs Edited by Sammie Jo, Jun 16 2012, 11:06 PM.

I feel the same way about Nikki bringing up Sharon being with all of the Newmans. It's like we get it, move on... |

After watching today's episode... I have come to the conclusion that these writers hate all women |

I wonder if they would consider reading that book Michael Maloney just released, The Young and the Restless Life of William J. Bell? Actually has anybody here read that book yet? Because I am finishing up I Want My MTV and want something else juicy to read. |

They do! You can tell it's chauvinistic men in charge of this show. Wonder what they have on MAB other than covering for her while she is out recruiting washed up talent. But I stopped watching because of this. This slapping the shit out of each other over a man is just a crock. And other than that I am beyond sick and tired of survivors of rape apologizing or having romantic encounters with their rapist. I'm not just taking my anger out on YR. I stopped watching GH for the same reason. The premier of Dallas showed me something. People do like and do watch serials. They just want something to watch. They simply need to quit blaming the viewer for having high standards and demanding quality and get off their asses and write. Over their whining. When you churn out this misogynic crap for years women (who are the viewer they should want to capture) will tune out. On the other hand they are writing the men like wimps or to the other extreme as jackasses. SMH |

Paul's a shitty dad. He's blabbing his gums about Ricky to every streetwalker on a corner. Is he really surprised that Ricky doesn't like him? I would be given Pauly the bird! |

Because I am finishing up I Want My MTV and want something else juicy to read. Yes I have and I don't know, its kind of a fairy tale in that he and Lee never had any problems, had the perfect home life and she was a television star on a local channel in Chicago and was perfect, he wrote wonderful story lines for Y&R but it seem to me that he made his staff put their work before their home lives and yes I have had jobs like that too where my home life came in a distant 2nd or 3rd but something has to suffer because of it. I know this was written with the Bell family cooperation and maybe that's why it seems squeaky clean. JMO |

Sharon sure was full of herself today. She has gotten pretty cocky since she is hanging on Victors arm and she is making a fool of hreself. Her acting was horrible when when was talking to Victoria, Abby and Victoria. I am so glad they shot her down and refused her influence she has. :shame: I could not believe she thinks she is still the center of Adams world and that he really doesn't care about Chelsea. Soon Sharons world is going to crumble around her and Victor is going to kick her ass out and take Nikki back. Sharon will be all alone again and so glad because she caused it all herself. |

WTF was up with that miserable shrew Chloe? Her attitude towards Sharon was so random and just plain stupid, bringing up that Billy incident. Does she still not get that Billy never loved/liked her at all? And her comment to Sharon; "find a playground where people actually like you". Who the fuck in Genoa City like Chloe? She's always gonna be the crazy stalker bitch that tried to destroy Lane. |

Being Victor's plaything sure has given Sharon a big head. Doesn't she realize she is not very well liked right now? Nasty how she treated Adam, even if I'm not a big fan of his. I don't blame Victoria, Abby and Chloe for shutting her down. They are not her connections. She's a user and she will continue to use. Edited by MN's Nice, Jun 20 2012, 06:50 PM.

Same old Chloe, the writers use her to demean the object of Genoa Cities most hated resident who happens to be Sharon right now. She was calling Jill names and demeaning her in public when Jill was suing Lauren for half of Fenmores too. I think Chloe is supposed to tell the viewers who to hate, and be disgusted with, because these writers are unable to make the case with their nonsensical disjointed writing. It's impossible to follow any character or story, it's like trying to make sense of someone who's rambling on and on about every random thought that goes through their mind. The only factor that remains constant, as others have mentioned, is the women hate. So there is something that really matters to whoever is writing this slop. It amazes me that CBS and Sony allows Y&R to run an hour of woman hate daily. I've watched a quite a few soaps, and many shows and movies over the years, but have never seen anything like it. I think these corporate execs must watch only clips, or read scripts, but have no idea of how it's being played out on screen. Complaints of sexism aren't coming from militant feminist groups but from women (and men) who love and have watched soaps, and this show, for decades. When I do tune in these days it's to see familiar faces with the hope I'll see a sign that change is coming, but there's no story left to follow. I amuse myself trying to figure out what caused the main writer to be so angry and hateful, and Google all the possibilities that would produce someone who thinks this way. So far my Dr. Google diagnosis is.... the main writer is male and was abused by a female caretaker. Mother, or someone who took care of him like a mother. I go back on forth on whether the abuse was sexual in nature, but I think it has to be. I can't think of anything else that would make everything coming out of a person so full rage. There's a hatred of what he considers a weak men too.- Perhaps a passive father who did nothing to help him? What this writer sees as a good or bad about the sexes, and the act of sex, is extremely abnormal. So there you have it- LOL- I'm tired of playing Dr. Google though, is this ever going to end? I'd rather just relax and enjoy watching my silly soap again. Rant over. Edited by Leisha, Jun 20 2012, 08:07 PM.

I'm wondering if they will have Sharon have a brain tumor just like Jana. I don't remember the story line but I remember Phyllis and Sharon being in a cornfield and insecticides were being sprayed on the cornfield, was either girl sprayed, I just wonder if they will say that Sharon has a tumor and blame it back on that, I don't remember her having a car wreck when she ran away to New Mexico her car was hijacked but she wasn't injured. In the book about Bill Bell they brought up the story of Victor going to Kansas and his car being hijacked and he met Hope, it was Sharon's story word for word except the characters, good grief Maria must have kept those old scripts and she just changes the names on the players. |
