Y&R Canada Updates - Wk of June 22, 2009 - Please do something about these awful storylines!

I'm not a happy Y&R viewer. I haven't been happy in months. I don't want to turn this blog into an *I'm sick of the bad storylines on the Y&R* blog so I'm hoping that things turn around soon!

Adam and Rafe gay storyline:

The Adam and Rafe stuff is bothering me. Not so much because it's a gay storyline but because they're now making Rafe out weak. He seemed like a strong character and now he's just able to be shaken enough to eliminate suspiction by the mere idea that someone has a 'crush' on him? Please. How could anyone not see through that?

The new Adam Newman:

The new Adam is very different from the original (Chris Engen) Adam. The storyline is awful and I'm not shocked the original actor walked off set.

Summer's Coma

I'm really really really unimpressed with the Summer Newman coma. That Patty Williams / Mary Jane Benson is that heartless is sickening and a new low for the show. So, this is why they did the soras thing with the Summer character...

Sharon and Nick paternity thing:

My husband gave up watching 2 weeks ago because it got past the point of ridiculousness so I'm really hoping that because so many Y&R fans have been very verbal about our distaste for the writing lately that in the next few weeks we'll be seeing a difference (I don't know how far in advance they tape).

Sharon's character is not the sort who would lie about paternity so they're not being true to the character.

Y&R Canada for Wednesday April 22, 2009
---------------------------------------

My husband 'called' that Cane was going to buy that Jimmy's Bar right before he did. As a matter of fact, we joke all the time that I should be a writer for the Y&R because of how often I 'call' story lines right before they happen.

Genoa City residents are getting many more hangouts these days:
---------------------------------------------------------------

-GCAC (Formerly Gina's)
-Crimson Lights
-Indigo
-The Used Bookstore (So many rich people buying second hand books, huh?)
And for a bit of a drive...Joe Junior's Diner

What'll they call the bar? Hurricane's?


Speculation on the MaryJane Benson Storyline:

I didn't call this one as I read about it on a Y&R message forum but many think that Mary Jane Benson is really
Mary Jo Mason.
Sound plausible?
I don't really remember much about the Mary Jo storyline so I looked her up and recognised her sort of. That must've been during a time where I wasn't watching due to work, before the lovely invention of DVR's.

Cane & Lily's Pup
-----------------
No offense to Yorkshire Terrier lovers but doesn't Cane seem more like the Golden Retriever or German Shepherd type? You know...big, manly man. I think it's unfair to make a man walk a little teeny weeny dog like that. Sorry to stereotype but: that's a girl's dog.
