Y&R: Jana's Bail Is Denied


If you were a judge would you let Jana Fisher (Emily O'Brien) out on bail? Kevin Fisher (Greg Rikaart) isn't the only one in their household with a criminal past and it looks as if it finally caught up with her. Do you think Jana should have been denied bail?

Line of the Week:"Lily is a Good Judge of Character"

Did I hear things right today on Y&R when gumshoe Paul (Doug Davidson) said  to Nina (Tricia Cast) that Lily was a good judge of character, and with a straight face no less? I think I just felt Dru rolling over in her watery grave.
 
With Genoa City being a gossipy town, hasn't Paul heard of Lily's (Christel Khalil) track record with men?  Kevin (Greg Rikaart) gave her an STD, Daniel (Michael Graziadei) decided to take up porn viewing as a hobby, Billy (Billy Miller) hustled her about baby Delia's paternity, and now comes the news that Cane (Daniel Goddard) isn't the Chancellor heir and Phillip III (Thom Bierdz) is still alive.

Brian Frons says, "Emotional Jeopardy" is Key to Emmy Nods


Michael Maloney has written a nice article for Variety on this year's Daytime Emmy nominations. Even though I think the Enemas for the most part are bogus, it's really nice to see soaps written about in the trades and the theme of the article not being their pending demise for a change.

It's also great to see not-so-Imaginary Bastards, er Bitches, Andrew Miller and Greg Rikaart quoted in regards to IB's groundbreaking Emmy nod and Y&R's shameful Best Drama snub, respectively. Of course I couldn't get through the entire article without reading something that made my eyes bleed and my nose twitch like Samantha on Bewitched after a particularly decadent night at Studio 54. Check out the irony in the below passage about what ABC Daytime's Brian Frons thinks it takes fo an actor to net an Emmy nomination.

Y&R's Fashion Sneak Peek of Murphy and Kay's Wedding


Looks like throwbacks will be the name of the game, when it comes to wardrobe choices for Murphy (Michael Fairman) and Katherine's (Jeanne Cooper) wedding on The Young and the Restless. Now tradition is, when the bride tosses her bouquet, which ever single lady catches it is next to wed. Now I love my Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott), as our Jamey Giddens likes to tease me about, but Nikki certainly doesn't need to have another wedding right about now!
 
Side Note: I see Clementine Ford (Mac) happens to be sporting some extensions for the occasion. Thoughts people?

Y&R's Greg Rikaart's Soapy Advice to Pal Clementine Ford: "Every Day is a New Day"



Y&R's newly-christened Mackenzie Browning recently chatted with Michael Fairmain for Advocate.com, clearing up speculation about her sexuality, and offering a sneek peak at what's in store for the character, who this week returned to Genoa City, just in time to learn her grandmother Katherine "Duchess" Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper) is still alive, and the love of her life Billy (Billy Miller) is now a soon-to-be-married baby daddy. Ford also shares what her buddy, fellow Y&R star Greg Rikaart gave The L Word alum about the wacky world of daytime dramas.

 

Being a sudser rookie, did your pal Greg Rikaart give you any soapy advice?



He said “Keep going! In soaps every day is a new day.” I have gotten one piece of advice from the cast. They told me it’s going to be one of the hardest jobs I’ve ever had, especially the first little while till I hit my stride. Once I hit my stride it will be fine."
