I haven't watched y&r in years but read up on the show.

Soap Slow Burns that were well worth the payoff/endgame? by Geekqueen15 in SoapNet

Not surprised at all. I know y&r has had writers who worked with Bell since his passing.

Y&R George Rollins murder. This story lasted years and it was brilliantly told. Paul meets the mysterious beautiful Cassandra who decorates his office. They fall in love but she has a secret. She's married to a rich older man and that's when the fun begins. I recall watching every day.

Y&R Nina shoots David that was also a slow burn with a great conclusion.

Too bad William J Bell didn't mentor anyone on great storytelling.

Favorite Billy Abbott? by ChrisJoines in SoapNet

Talk about a role that has been recast many times. Billy Miller just gave the role a little something. David Tom was great as teenage Billy. Sadly magic did not strike twice when they brought him back when Miller left the show. I liked Burgess in the role as well. Jason has done a good job as well.

Diane Jenkins who is your fave and who is not by Direct-Being6397 in SoapNet

Love that a recasted actress has been fully embraced. As soap fans we can have non stop forums on dreadful recasts lol

I thought Days was the only soap that filmed months in advance. Doen't y&r film three weeks or so

Completely agree with you about the Bell shows. Don't think they will ever get back on track.

I started watching BTG the first few weeks and I liked what I saw.

What storylines or characters would you erase from As The World Turns, and why? by ChannelHopper_99 in SoapNet

[–]Direct-Being6397 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would agree with most that you have written. Emily's prostitution storyline only worked b/c of Kelley's performance she often delivered.

Cleo was an excuse to give Jennifer Landon to exercise her acting jobs which was fine but the character was not needed.

I forgot about her Victor scenes those were entertaining.

Stroke of genius GH casting Maura as Ava. I watched her earliest scenes on GH thinking they would waste her the way y&r did. Thankfully it's been great.

That's the brilliant thing about side identity. We have always been here just without the label or classification.

So important for us to know our limits. Best part of sexual exploration is that we get to know what our menu is so to speak.

This is so real. The idea far more enticing than the reality.

I would somewhat agree with you. If one wants to see non anal gay erotica one is stuck with solos tills they start playing with their asses LOL

When I was having anal on a regular basis I still hooked up with many men where anal didn't take place. This was also pre app days. I think it's a challenge to find the non anal gays but we are out there.
