@stevieb @I hear you about the hunks....but I’m sorry.....for some reasons...they can’t seem to hire any good looking guys with equally good looking body’s.

Every time my husband and I visited LaLa land, the waiters were all amazing looking.  They said they were actors.

Perhaps they just loved being a waiter so much they didn’t want to give it up...not!

I fast forward all of the scenes with Tara and Kyle and Sally and anyone except Phyllis.  I can’t wait til Phyllis finds out how awful her munchkin was treated by Sally and Tara.

I’m sorry but Tara’s acting abilities rate up there with the Ramen noodles my daughter made yesterday.

I intensely disliked Sally when she was on B&B and I like her even less now that she’s on Y&R.

I do like the way we get to see more of Victor.  None of those young stud muffins can come close to manly man Victor.

Looking at Moriah’s belly, I thought it was going to fall out and she’d step over it.  I don’t know how pregnant she’s supposed to be, but that fake bump is way too low.  Looking at her belly so low it would lead one to believe baby has turned and is locked in and ready to come.

I will say I’m very happy the baby Daddy isn’t around because I don’t have to constantly hear my pet peeve.

That would be mom and dad saying...”We are pregnant.”  That phrase causes smoke to pour out of my ears.

Look people...it’s still one thing females can still do.  Make the baby AND push it out.  Daddy is only necessary for a nano-second.

The word pregnant means the female has a baby in her belly.  It does not mean the daddy has one in HIS belly.

OK now I’ll go sit down....I’m exhausted waiting for @stevieb  to call me to set up a cast call for a hunk a hunka burning manly man.  Phew!  Turn down that air conditioner please.

@Annabellethecat66  I can't fathom why whoever is casting this show, even given they're clearly inadquate, refuses to hire any nice looking well built younger men. Kyle's about it and it's not like he's a blue ribbon winner. As for that stupid pregnancy story line, but wait, Devon is the baby daddy and he is around. Aside from the obvious diversity mandate, this choice of direction has never made any sense to me whatsoever. And yes, I agree, this whole 'we're pregnant' nonsense just gripes me. Women get pregnant, men do not. I tried again the other day to watch this show and ended up shaking my head and turning it off. It's still awful.

@stevieb @Please don't give up on the show.  I enjoy reading your posts.

Sometimes my pea size brain gets tired of putting out posts that 'say' what I'm TRYING to say without getting deleted.

OK so I know we aren't the only people who  enjoy looking at manly men, so why aren't they at least 'tried out' on the show.

I'm getting tired of these writers to expect us to suspend reality and make our brains believe stupid stuff.

One minute we are to believe Kyle worships Summer to the extent he's running all over town to talk to her and within the same day he's acting like "there's a warm body here...I'll make her the substitute".

I read somewhere yesterday that the actor who plays Kyle is leaving, too.  I liked him at first, but I'm so sick of seeing his straight across little mouth trembling like he's going to cry all the time, so I won't miss him.  I wish they'd find people that can actually act to cast on this show, but I think it's a lost cause at this point.

Looks like Summer and Kyle are out.

Here's the scoop.

@Annabellethecat66  I gave up on this hot mess months ago, I just check in once in a while. The show has stunk for so long I finally moved on. I'm now watching the other soaps and only turn this one on once in a blue moon. When I do watch, it never seems to have improved and the casting continues to be pretty bad.

[stevieb]

Interesting, so Y&R moved heaven and earth trying to make Kyle and Summer the next big thing in the way of 'legacy' family couples and then failed to reach agreement over contracts. I'm not a big fan of either, but if they both walk, this show doesn't have much in the way of a youth movement or in the way of a multigenerational family component. They should have been beefing up their cast all along but they didn't. Instead, they bring viewers the same overwrought, stale characters who've been on the front burner for years, along with Stitch and Tara... Whatever...

There's still Sally (how old is she ,maybe 30?) Lusting for grandpa -- Jack --eh could it be his money & position

I didn't see a July Y&R, guessing this just continues for this month.

Anyway it seems like the show is doing a reunion type of Abby's old

boyfriends or something strange like that. First bum Stitch appeared

and soon Tyler will too.

This Stitch is lingering way too long.

A new actor that will be playing her old boyfriend Tyler will be coming

back this week. I do remember the original quite a few years ago. He

was originally involved with Mariah and then started dating Abby. Don't

think it lasted that long.

So his coming back may create problems now with Mariah carrying

Abby and Chance's baby.

Saw this page of the many loves of Abby Newman.

@stevieb Her best guy was of course Austin Travers. Our Thomas

[stevieb]

@threecees  One thing for sure, other than Austin/Thomas and Carmine, below, Abby's had consistently pretty mediocre taste in men, at best...
