After Y&R's Dylan Says Goodbye To Sharon, Steve Burton Shares There's "More Scenes To Come!"
Courtesy/CBS
On Monday’s episode of The Young and the Restless, viewers saw Dylan (Steve Burton) and Sharon (Sharon Case) share an emotional goodbye as Dylan goes undercover on a dangerous case.
Sharon wants Dylan to wear his ring, but he says he can’t wear it where he is going, and for her to keep it for him. Dylan, who has been through some very hard times of late, after learning that he is not the baby-daddy to a second child during his time in Genoa City, certainly needs some distance.
Now that Dylan is about to venture on to this case with the assistance of his dad, Paul (Doug Davidson), Christine (Lauralee Bell) and Kevin (Greg Rikaart), viewers thought Monday’s episode was the final appearance by Burton, who announced late last year he was departing the number one daytime drama series.
Answering various fans tweets and comments following his heartbreaking peformance on Monday’s airshow, Burton related: “It’s not over yet!” and followed that with “Thx! But more scenes to come!”
So, how will this all end for Dylan? Stay tuned for upcoming episodes of Y&R for the answer. But first watch Dylan and Sharon’s goodbye scene after the jump. Then weigh-in and let us know what you thought of Burton’s performance, and what you think is still to come? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.

Christel Khalil Reveals She Almost Quit Acting After ‘That’s So Raven’ Audition, But Then Came ‘The Young and the Restless’
The Young and the Restless fan favorite, Christel Khalil (Lily Winters) is the special guest on this week’s edition of Soapy Hosted by Rebecca Budig and Greg Rikaart which dropped today on Tuesday, June 23rd.
During the interview with Rebecca and Greg, Khalil who had played Lily Winters on-screen since August of 2002, nearly 24 years with the CBS soap, shared how early on her teenage acting career, she was ready to call it quits in show business, after a heartbreaking audition for the lead of a new Disney Channel sitcom, which later turned out to be the hit seres, That’s So Raven, starring Raven-Symoné which ran for four seasons from 2003-2007.
Christel recalled what happened. “I was 14 and I had always auditioned for all these Disney projects. So I auditioned for That’s So Raven, it was between me and Raven-Symoné and it was called at the time Absolutely Psychic,” explained Khalil. “The character was this girl who had psychic ability, but then when Raven got the role, they named the title of the show after her.”

HOW A BROTHERLY TALK CHANGED THE COURSE OF CHRISTEL’S CAREER
Reliving the disappointment to Greg and Rebecca, Christel explained, “I lost that part and I was just so devastated, because for the network call there were 20 people in the room watching me, and I just have always had such performance anxiety. I just completely bombed the audition and it was terrible. So, I was just devastated. I was actually going to quit acting and then I got the final call for The Young and The Restless and I wasn’t going to go.”
It was Khalil’s brother, who actually got her to reconsider, and if he hadn’t, we would not have our Lily Winters in Genoa City! Christel recounted, “I was like, ‘You know what? I’m done. I don’t want to do this anymore. I’m just going to hang out with my friends.’ I was just devastated. My brother, who is seven years older than me, and he had quit acting at the same age that I was at that time. He said to me, ‘I promise you, I actually really regret quitting. Just go on this audition and if you don’t get it, you can quit.'”
Christel’s screen-test for the role of Lily was actually with the late, great, Kristoff St. John who would play her father Neil (Later it was revealed to Lily, that Neil’s brother, Malcolm Winters was her bio-dad).

ACTING WAS EASY WITH THE LATE KRISTOFF ST. JOHN
“So, I went (to test for Lily) and I remember the screen-test was with Kristoff St. John. It was just so easy to act with him because he’s just so there. I remember just being on set, and that was my first time there for a screen-test where you were actually on set. I had never experienced that before. It was my first time being with an actor and having makeup done, which just helps you really be able to do your best work.”
Recalling the screen-test with the St. John, Khalil, “It was where I had to be emotional ( in the scene) and I always had issues being emotional at auditions. But I was there with him, it just came, and it happened. It was natural and I felt so good and it was amazing. It stands out in my mind a lot.”
You can check out the full Soapy conversation with Christel Khalil where she also discusses juggling motherhood, marital life, and the demands of soap operas.

If you have ever tuned-in to the soap opera genre over the last 50 years, and witnessed some of the greatest romances, drama, classic and outlandish storylines of all-time, you would have seen Deidre Hall smack dab in the middle of it as longtime Salem heroine, Dr. Marlena Evans.
It was 50 years on this date, June 21, 1976 that Hall first appeared on DAYS on NBC which was its home for 57 years before it moved to its current streaming platform on Peacock in September of 2022.
In Hall’s first episode she was introduced as a psychiatrist treating Mickey Horton (John Clarke) at Bayview Sanitarium after he suffered a complete mental breakdown. Mickey learned that his brother Bill Horton (Edward Mallory) was the biological son of Mike Horton (Wesley Eure) with his wife Laura (Susan Flannery) and that he had been lied to for years and years. From that moment on, the rest is television and soap opera history. Days of Our Lives put Hall front and center.

There were so many heartbreaking and shocking story twists involving the beloved Marlena. One of the first was the historic crib death of baby DJ (Don Jr.) in 1980, Marlena’s infant son with Don Craig (Jed Allan). The story had never been told on daytime television and Hall’s performances received accolades from TV critics to fans when Deidre received thousands of letters from grieving mothers who had gone through the same thing in their own lives.
DAYS also brought Deidre’s twin sister, Andrea Hall Lovell to the show as her on-screen sister Samantha, who had a grudge and even locked Marlena up in a sanitarium and took her place! Fast-forward and in 1982, DAYS launched the Salem Strangler story where everyone believed Marlena was his next victim, only it turned out to be Samatha. Jake Kositchek (played by Jack Coleman) was revealed to be the actual serial killer.
Later, Deidre would assume the role of Marlena’s look-alike, Hattie Adams in 2004, once played by her sister, Andrea. Over the years, Hattie has come back to Salem and caused trouble giving Hall a chance to play a different type of character, then the always upstanding Marlena.

THE LOVES OF MARLENA
Deidre Hall struck gold with all her leading men: from the late Jed Allan, to Wayne Northrop as Roman Brady, and of course, her enduring love story with the late John Black played by the iconic Drake Hogestyn. In fact, Marlena’s 1986 wedding to John (who was believed to be Roman at the time) remains a favorite of fans to this day.
TOP MARLENA STORYLINES OF ALL-TIME
While the list is long, here are several that were some of the memorable during Deidre’s five decades in Salem!
The Possession (1994- 1995)
Considered one of the most ambiguous, outlandish and unforgettable story arcs in soap opera history, then Days of Our Lives head writer, James Reilly went there! Marlena was possessed by the devil! That included; the demonic eyes, hissing at father John (Black) the priest, morphing into creatures, and the classic levitating in her bed! It became a cultural phenomenon and cemented Deidre Hall’s status as a daytime television legend. Just ask Ryan Gosling!

The Affair with John Black (1993)
John and Marlena’s forbidden love could not be denied and they had passionate affair, while she was still married to the real Roman. Problem was her daughter, Sami (Alison Sweeney) caught her mother having sex with John on a desk that changed Sami forever.
The Salem Stalker Mystery (2003-2004)
In a shocker, Marlena was revealed to be a serial killer who bumped off several Salem favorites residents who were all alive on the island of Melaswen (spelled “New Salem” backward). Turns out, she was manipulated and gaslighted by Andre DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) to do the “killings” and had no memory of her actions.
The Pier Scene (1991)
This remains Michael Fairman TV’s all-time favorite Deidre Hall moment, which featured some of the best acting in the storied careers of both Hall and Drake Hogestyn.
In the story, a presumed-dead Marlena returns after four years. One foggy night on the pier, John is alone, and Marlena steps out of the fog to reveal herself, and is reunited with the love of her life. You can watch it any year, any decade, and in any moment, and it will have you reaching for the hankies again and again. (best music score fo a soap scene of all-time too!)

Kristen’s Secret Room Reveal (1997)
Marlena was caught in Kristen Blake’s (Eileen Davidson) elaborate web of lies, when she was held hostage in a secret wine cellar/room until John managed to track her down, leading to an iconic on-screen reunion. The classic catfight between Hall and Eileen Davidson was one for the ages.
It should be noted that Maison Blanche, Queen of the Night, Possession, Aremid and Lady in a Cage were all a part of classic DAYS storyline and all featured Hall at the epicenter of it from 1993-1996.
THE RECENT YEARS OF MARLENA
In recent years, DAYS brought back the possession 2.0 storyline under then head writer Ron Carlivati in 2021 where the devil leapt back in Marlena after taking advantage of a frail Doug Williams (the late Bill Hayes)
In 2025, viewers watched the end of the love story of John and Marlena, as John succumbed to injuries sustained in an explosion saving a vial of medication needed to bring Bo (Peter Reckell) back to life. Marlena has been a widow on-screen since June of 2025 as Hall as portrayed the good doctor struggling with her grief and to move on with her life since his death.

One story that never goes away is Stefano DiMera’s (the late Joe Mascolo) obsession with Marlena, his “Queen of the Night.” Even in death, Stefano is toying with her from the great beyond with the mysterious chess set and the missing “pawn,” that he had gifted John and Marlena in his will. The mystery is currently unfolding on all-new episodes of Days of Our Lives.
Tune-in to Days of our Lives on the Monday, June 22 episode as Marlena looks back at her 50 years in Salem.
Share your congratulations to Deidre Hall for this incredible 50-year milestone as Dr. Marlena Evans on Days of Our Lives in the comment section. Then let us know, what is your all-time favorite storyline or moment in the life of Marlena over the past 5 decades? And, just for kicks, and to celebrate this amazing milestone, here is Marlena levitating below circa Christmas Eve 1994.

I’m guessing that Dylan will singlehandedly bring down Luther Fisk’s criminal empire but be gravely wounded so that Nick can be guilted into taking Christian to see him. On his deathbed, Dylan will beg Nick to allow Sharon to be a mother to Christian (you know, ’cause she’s done a stellar job with her other kids) and Nick will feel obligated to do honor his half brother’s dying wish since EVERYTHING is about sainted secret cult baby Dylan.
That sounds interesting, but that sounds like basically Sharon and Nick would be together again if they were raising a child together again. I wonder if they will kill him off or leave it open for a recast, because they just killed Adam off not too long ago, so doing the same explosion fire bit would be terrible to me.
Dylan will go missing, end of story in case Steve wants to return.
You are right about Sharon, Alan…….of course I agree with you. But, Kay does have a point.
One can always argue that Sharon’s mind is compromised, and therefore, her thinking gets ‘hazy’, for lack of a better word.
One may also argue that life with the Newmans was not a walk in the park. She was crucified over and over by everyone, including Nick.
What is Nick’s excuse? All events leading to this point in Sharon’s life could partially but strongly be blamed on Nick and his father, who always got his son out of hot water before getting ‘boiled’.
Dr. Anderson falls straight on sanctimonious Nick’s shoulders. Yes, the eoman was nuts, but one can also blame Nick and his father for that. Another one biting the Newman dust, I’d say.
I wouldn’t go as far as calling him a bully….but, he is not the proper gentleman either. All he does is tighten the screws, when push comes to shove.
Do not get me wrong; I love Joshua Morrow….great acton. So, strictly speaking of the character here.
Bi-polar or not, Sharon is an awful mother. She left town — and her kids! — when she had trouble with Nick and then entered into an affair with Cameron; she let her kids think she was dead when she escaped from jail after being accused of dropping Skye in the volcano (oy); and then she married her children’s uncle and grandfather (great role model, Sharon). And Sharon isn’t going to win any daughter of the year awards, either.
Yes, Nick came from a privileged background but he has (mostly) learned from his mistakes to grow into a responsible man with a good heart, the intention of always doing the right thing, and a total devotion to his kids. I don’t see his trying to protect Faith from her mother’s behavior as being a bully or tightening the screws — I see it as a father trying to protect his child from harm. If anything, I don’t think he is tough enough when it comes to Sharon.
Sharon’s life with Nick may not have been a walk in the park but she shoulders at least half the blame for that (an affair with Diego; an affair with Cameron; sleeping with Brad when he was married to Victoria; running off with Adam in New Orleans even after she knew he switched Faith at birth — seriously , what mother forgives THAT?; marrying Victor; switching Summer’s DNA results; keeping Christian after she knew he wasn’t hers). And I don’t think it’s necessarily the Newmans who are to blame — when Sharon was married to Jack she slept with him, Billy, and Nick and then had no idea who her baby daddy was.
Nope do not want her in the Newman or it ! Would like for Sally to do a story on a long missing dad no more romance always going to be in her corner
Oh, Alan….you straightened me right out. LOL. How convincing are you! Perfect writing; perfect description; perfect commentsry; perfect post.
Yet, I cannot not like Sharon. It’s one of those things. It’s the same as, no matter how good nuBilly gets, I cannot like him. Strange, right?
I had completely forgotten about some of Sharon’s ” escapades”…..especially when she left her kids for an interminable amount of time. My children come first; always and forever.
The writers did all mothers everywhere a disservice parading Sharon the way they depicted her, albeit such mothers do exist.
Yes, the fact she never talks about her Mom anymore is disturbing….it would be great if TPTB would rethink that and re-introduced Doris.
I seem to have forgotten about Cameron? Also, didn’t Nick cheat on her first with her best friend, Grace, right under her nose?
I would never condone getting back at one’s mate by doing the same to him/her, but perhaps that fact did Sharon in? I know, I know…I’m fishing for excuses, LOL. As a matter of fact I have always balked at those who cheat just because their partners had cheated on them. Eg… Dante and Lulu, GH.
Sharon is one complicated woman living a very complicated life. I am soooo glad I am not she. LOL.
I like Sharon but she’s just a total mess. I would love to see Faith act out as a result of her mother’s actions and reject Sharon which could serve as a wake-up call. I don’t think it is realistic for all of Sharon’s kids to take a “oh, that’s just mom” approach to her behavior.
(Cameron was the abusive businessman Sharon had an affair with when she skipped town for a while. He showed up in Genoa City and when Sharon met him in his hotel room he attacked her and she hit him over the head and thought she killed him. She dumped what she thought was his body in the sewer but it turned out that Cameron was alive and had killed Cassie’s bio dad Frank and that was the body Sharon dumped. And yes, Nick was seduced by Grace — and then he and Sharon reconciled but she had a miscarriage and thought Nick was cheating so she had an affair with Raul’s brother Diego.)
Hey, Alan, I have completely erased Cameron from my mind. I drew a blank….but, I researched to refresh my memory…..I must have been cramming for exams, at the time, LOL.
I suppose that because I was so young, watching Sharon’s and Nick’s love blossom (High Schoolers?) left an impressionable and indelible mark on me. I was the typically blooming tween enraptured by young love.
Sharon will always hold a warm place in my heart because of that, I’m sure.
Thank you for the backstory, Alan….your descriptive writing serves the brain well.
Sad, sad, sad all around. I felt so much pity for Dylan, I can’t even find the appropriate words to express how profoundly this last scene touched me…to what depth.
The fates were against Dylan since he first stepped on Genoa City’s soil.
He dies while undercover and Nick consoles Sharon and we are back in the saddle with Nick, Sharon and Chelsea. Here we go again.
It would be unfortunate to put Paul through another guilt trip and dead son. That’s not needed for dramatic impact right now. Sadly that’s probably what will happen. Paul shines inter acting with his children and siblings. This character needs to be recast.
I agree. I think he dies in Florida where he’s trying to solve a case and Nick tries to consoles Sharon and they end up in bed. I did read somewhere that she and Nick have a one nighter,
Hey, Nikki,
I guess we can’t really be that surprised. So, Nick and Sharon will end up in bed, as a one-time deal? Too bad, I always thought they would always go back to the beginning and be together again, albeit I want Dylan to come back to her. Their story is just ending too abruptly for my taste….but, it’s typical soap storytelling, I guess.
But, there was always the thought swirling in my head Nick and Sharon were meant for each other.
I wonder if their ‘lovemaking’ will produce a baby. Sharon always ends up pregnant.
Do you get the feeling, Nikki, that TPTB are teasing us into thinking that Nick and Phyllis are about to walk the walk? He has three choices now…Chelsea, Sharon and Phyllis. LOL.
Vicious circle, Karen….and life in GC goes on. The royal Newman saga continues. LOL.
Why wasnt Chelsea in that exploding house!
Noooooo let Sharon find some family like a missing Dad but Nick and hey I adore JM he is a sweetheart but he is a bully on screen when does this frat boy take responsibility for his actions ? SC has had to prop everyone of his latest romances please free her Sally let her grow and find her independence Bill Bell brought this character on who worked and took care of her disabled mom I want that girl back!
How is Nick a bully? Sharon is a terrible mother (and daughter) who is constantly given a free pass because she has the bi-polars while Nick constantly has to pick up the pieces whenever Sharon does something to scar her kids.
I figured there had to be more. I wonder if we will see Dylan in danger with a tease of his disappearance or death while undercover (although I thin killing off Dylan would be a mistake). Or maybe we will see him have one last opportunity to say goodbye before going deep undercover.
Previous teams have done Dylan no favors, taking a solid and promising character and twisting him in a wind with so much paternity and baby-switching nonsense. I sense Dylan will one day return but I would leave Genoa City after all that silly drama.
REALLY nice wording… especially your 2nd para
gawd… I don’t know if you watch GH. I really and truly NOW miss him as @jason
it has to be said… what a dismal failure ; Jason and Sam ARE
Billy Miller would have made it.. @ GH… had he been Jake John Doe
too late… he’s so dull… Sam does nothing as well to prop either or
facts are
Steve Burton worked his take @GH
I wish him well
let me say: his take.. as Jason… forever worked
For sure— Dylan will Not die ..
As for recasting, it is most likely.
The Dylan character is ”connected” to the Newmans, so yeah most likely a recast.
Anyways- I won’t miss anything concerning Sharon and poor Dylan he should have never been put near Sharon she destroys everyone near to her ..
(((Sharon has started to resemble the Queen of the Swamp Kellyanne Conway.. ahaa! really I had that flash lol ..
Yes would not anyone to work for a living those hand outs are just great off our backs
Good one, Su! 🙂
Really? C’mon, now. Enough is enough….
Cannot get away from this hate. Seriously, enough!! I find it more and more discouraging coming to these sites. For shame!!!!
I agree, su. I said as much days ago. Regardless of the fact that a few of us think Sharon and Nick belong together, I feel that Sharon and Dylan shared something we had not seen before with any of her relationships. Sharon did something unthinkable by not being honest with Dylan. But, is that not typical of someone who has dealt with mental issues for years?
That fact, compounded with the fear of losing both Christian and Dylan can make someone with mental disease, such as Sharon, go off course.
But, the point is, Dylan stayed married to her. Yes, he was hurt, still is; however, he showed us that his love for his wife is greater than any hurt or angst he may feel.
In contrast, look at Nick…..anytime Sharon, or anyone bruises his ego. He pouts, sulks and puts himself first, instead of analyzing the whys.
Hi CC ..
Poor Dylan 🙁
He has PTSD and has lost Two sons by women playing him, that he loved..
I think he will be recast and hopefully with a stronger type charater, a real smart one lol ..
Wow, really?? Talking about SC’s looks?? Classy. She is stunning.
I agree, Didi. Sharon Case is beautiful. She could wear a burlap sack and her perfect figure would stand out!!
All people in media from talk shows, movies stars, tv personalities, presidents, to pillars of rock have had their looks, bodies etc open for public comment..
It is the way it is..
Kellyanne Conway has had many comments, many.
For some reason, soap actors are pampered from public opinion of their looks and facial repairs/lifts..
Soap actors, even tho public figures, are coddled from public opinions of their looks LOL makes no sense to me.
And yet.. I saw no one saying anything bad about Sharon, not a word as to being ugly, fat, gluply, nothing bad about her looks was said.
Sharon Case IS stunning indeed and does not resemble that Kelly Anne creature in the slightest.
Come on, SUOO–that was below the belt.
He should never have been in GC as Paul and Nikki’s child to begin with. I appreciate Steve Burton but glad the new regime is starting to repair the history that has been so blatantly rewritten and disrespected. I’m loving everything about Y&R now and can honestly say, I’ve not had to FF through a single scene since Sally Sussman’s writing has begun airing. Keep up the Great work Sally and Kay Alden.
No but he was and let it go I have
I agree with you on the writing comment. If they keep writing like this I will definitely very watching
I am all about Y&R again. Ms. Sussman and her team are very good. Without radical story turn, such as a disaster, they have been able to quickly repair and reboot this legacy drama series. I even have hope for Sharon, Victor, and Nikki, characters that in recent years had become unwatchable. There is a genuine sense of history and quality storytelling. Eager to see what is ahead! Sad that Dylan is collateral damage but his departure makes sense.
He should have been Nikki and Ian’s kid.
Wonderful scenes between Case and Burton, just the best the subtle moves the tears fantastic if Sally had been writing for Buryon all along it would have been great! Welcome back Queen Sharon and Noooo she will never be put back with that narcissistic Nick
I hope they don’t put Sharon and Nick back together. In my opinion thay story ended when she slept with Victor. And on that note I still say EEEEWWW
And that was MAB doing not Case don’t blame her she played a story out!!! God get off that girls back
I completely agree, SoapQueenForever!
And so in your world Victor has no responsibility for using his daughter in law lovely
The new EP and head writer have said in multiple interviews that the repair of Sharon is a priority and that she is 1 of the characters they are making a priority. I have a feeling they need a clean end with this. Heard a rumor that her high school man and Mariahs daddy isn’t really dead…..Interesting….Sharon Case is fabulous and has done well with the garbage she has had to deal with….Hope 2017 is a better year 4 her…?
Absolutely, Vicki. Sharon case is a true professional, in my book.
i read that they have already casted trevor st john in the role of mariah’s dad……….
Really? WOW!!!!! I hope it’s true. They could not have cast a better talent. Looove him.
Go find your safe place pull you grown up,panties on
Hmmmm. Grown up panties….that DEPENDS, Kay, my friend. LOL….I’m just being silly.
Oh brother.
No one knows what you are babbling about Kay.
Oh yes you do !! That’s what scares you
I personally hope they do not kill Dylan or have him presumed dead like Adam– just once I like to a soap writer write a plausible reason for a character to leave town— If I was writing this, I would have Dylan while undercover find Avery in the same city– he finds out when she left town she was with child and it was his. He is torn between the family he discovered and the family he left behind– he goes back to GC, but finds out Sharon had a one night stand with Nick, confesses he been seeing Avery– Sharon and Dylan mutually decide to end the marriage and Dylan goes back to Florida to be with Avery and their child. This takes Dylan back to where the character started and when enough time has passed and if needed, there could be a recast and Dylan could come back— no need to kill him off.
They should have had him leave after Sharon lied. He could have eventually forgave her if he decided to return to the soap.
As always, Mary, your words hit the spot. Love the premise. Do not kill Dylan. Leave the door open…agreed.
I was never a SB fan and thought he acting was kind of wooden but his last couple of months really changed my tune. It’s too bad he didn’t show that kind of range from the beginning for whatever reason. He is going out on a high note with his very emotional scenes with some great acting we finally got to see (and feel). Best wishes to you, Mr. Burton.
That is exactly how I felt about SB….and said so. Agreed, jeanine….Steve, as Dylan, these last few weeks, convinced me he is not so ‘wooden’ and ‘stone cold’ as I thought.
too bad , just started to really enjoy dylan just as hes leaving
he s been hitting all the marks as a father grieving losing who he thought was his son. he and sharon have been heartbreaking lately.
hopefully if he just “disapears” off the canvas , avery can return in the future to find him!
I certainly hope for Pauls sake they don’t kill off another one of his sons, and that one day whoever will play Dylan in the future gets to have his own child for real this time, as well as staying conneceted to Christian who is after all his nephew.
Steve really found his grove, last month. Its a shame he didnt stick around and see what the new writers could have done for him.
I was wondering if that was it.
I do think they should recast the role.
I liked Dylan with Sharon. His character was pretty blah until they got together. I think it also had something to do with the acting.
Agreed, Mo. You echo my sentiments.
Here is something REALLY stupid on Y&R right now, Devon’s bedside vigil! First off, he won the car, the car wouldnt be at the auction. If it were, they wouldnt throw him the keys. It needs registered! They didnt know who was going to win! Secondly, who drives 150 miles an hour in the snow! And thirdly, we dont really care if Devon lives and we have no sympathy for his she devil wife! END THE STORY NOW!
“We”? Please speak ONLY for yourself. You DO NOT speak for me or anyone else. I happen to care what happens to Devon and I want him to live. As for the “she devil” I am intrigued by her. I want to know more. I think this storyline will flesh out her background even further.
Ahhhh, Timmmy. As we are wont to discuss, you and I, so many times before, these writers take us for idiots.
Devon should not be driving anyway…….he still looks twelve to me. And, Hilary? Who the heck is this woman?
For the longest time I was under the impression she did not love her husband….only stayed married for convenience. Suddenly she’d give her life for his? Nah! Self-centered, ego-maniacs, and selfish people do not make such transformations overnight, regardless the dire circumstances.
Now, we are supposed to feel this anxiety; the suspense; wait with bated breath for him to remember what really happened. C’mon, now….been there, done that. Just get it over with…this is not creating any drama for me. I am assuming that TPTB are turning the corner, where Hilary is concerned? Are they trying to steer us towards that corner? The only reason Hilary is there is as a foil to Lily and Mariah.
I am not against that, don’t get me wrong. It is what SHOULD make good writing. But, make it believable. This story is not…Agreed.
I think Mariah and Devon will be thrown together, Timmmy. Too bad. She is the best asset Y&R has going for it, right now. Why waste her on Devon?
I can only be thankful Cane hasn’t been so visible….yet again, I have to suffer through Stitch.
Off topic: I must comment on how gorgeous Lauren looks. WOW!!!! I can only aspire to look like her in 20 or so years. Her skin looks fantastic ….and, I don’t mean just her face. LOL.
Devon is the black Michael Corinthos. Everyone who gets attached to him is a bore. DONT do that to the spicy Mariah!
Yes, Lauren and Nina on GH are defying age. That are both so pretty!
This is the one story I really hate. How many times must Devon be told and shown that his wife is an evil bitch from hell? Now he has amnesia of that night and has to be told all over again what he should have known long ago.
And as much as I despise Hillary (although I love the actress, she plays the bitch-diva beautifully) it is not her fault that idiot decided to drive 140 MPH on an icy road at midnight.
Lily and Neal treat Devon like he is a child who needs their protection. Neal even refers to him as a “boy” sometimes. He’s a grown ass man, and it’s time they treat him a such,
Jay, best to you, as well.
Tim…EXACTLY!!!!! Hilary is BEYOND TRASHY!!!!! B-u-t…that IMBECILE Devon WORKS MY NERVES EVEN MORE!!!!! Devon and Hilary=EPIC FAIL ALL-AROUND!!!!!!!!!!
Happy 2017, Tim.
Peace.
Yes, Jay, my friend. But, Hilary is the best bitch on soaps, right now….her performance is outstanding. We do not like her, right? That’s what makes Mishael’s acting stand out…..she plays the sycophant , Lorelei the Siren to the hilt.
Love the actress. Devon is another story, LOL.
Hillary is Queen Bitch.. and a great one ! (BRAVA!)
Now– I am going to be really angry when my bitch is whitewashed into being what she should no be, a goddy lamer ..
((and that is exactly what is being done…geeeerrrrrrr!
Mm is gold she has taken the throne from VR
Steve Burton needs to go back to GH, we need him there – he was wasted on L&R.
Devon is a wimp and needs to stand up to his beachy wife. Really sick of big mouth Lilly who evidently doesn’t have a life other than screaming about Hilary. Glad I can fast forward past most of this. Actually, not sure why I’m even watching this any more. The only character that I care about is Chelsea and I do hope she ends up with Nick (who else is there?) and part of that is because Christian is really Adam’s son so I think if anyone knew that he might end up with Chelsea since she was his wife when he died. Another possible storyline…
Meant Y&R in previous post.
There are a number of great prod companies looking for solid, well written and intriguing content. Steve Burton and his “undercover” story arc should serve as a good material for CMT, CBS ACCESS, Netflix, Amazon.
Steve has talent, work ethic and a loyal large fanbase. He should be able to do all of the things he wants to with his career and enjoy life with his family, too.
Good guys can win too.
The Shylan couple will be one of the most memorable to me on Y&R. I never thought that I would see a pairing for Sharon surpassed her other historical young love Shick pairing. I have to give “Kudo” to JFP for bringing Steve Burton to Y&R. I really like this new character, Dylan, the minute I saw him arrived in Genoa City, Wisconsin. HIs background intro really suited him, too. Being a war veteran who did tours in Afghanistan and his struggle with PTSD. His stories have kept me watching through out the years of JFP/CPratt Years, four years, despite the prop driven, shock and awe, disasters, babies centric, repeats of paternities (to the point of becoming numb to paternities/babies s/ls), mainly, I kept watching Y&R because of SB’s Dylan, and all the Bill Bell’s veterans and their amazing acting abilities. Sharon Case is a true actress and it is astounding how she keeps it together honing her craft despite all the regimes who have put her character through the mud and slime and she comes out or survives everything thrown at her and I think that comes from the great acting ability of the actress and I hope she wins an emmy for it this year. I’ll still be rooting for the character even if she does not win. To me she’s won already. I will miss Shylan and Steve Burton. Thank you for your work and for your character, Dylan. Shylan will be one of my favorites of Sharon coupling and if not the one for me in history of Y&R.
I really believe that Paul is losing yet another son. I can see a recast of the character as I do not see Sharon back with Nick. Too much bad history between those two.
Actually, I thought Sharon would be actually carrying Dylan’s baby.
Enjoyed the Jack Lauren and Eric Forrester storyline including the history between Eric and Lauren.
Please do what ever you have to do to get Steve Burton to come back to the y&r. The show is not the same without him and Sharon needs Dylan.
