Is Phick About To Reignite On The Young and the Restless?

Well, Phick fans you may get your wish after all, or will you?  The stage is set for Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) to seduce her former flame, Nick Newman (Joshua Newman), or might he seduce her? Hmmm.  These are the questions that may be answered next week on upcoming episodes of CBS Daytime’s, The Young and the Restless.

In the latest preview for next week in Genoa City. Adam (Mark Grossman), who wants to get closer to Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) and Nick out of the picture, gets his scheming partner, Phyllis over to his penthouse for a chat.

Seems like Adam has a proposition for her. He wants Phyllis to seduce Nick so they can both get what they want.  But … we know Phyllis doesn’t like to be played; especially by some guy who wants her to do his bidding.

But, one can’t help but wonder  …after their recent flirty conversations, if Phyllis doesn’t truly want Nick and to spark the flame that is Phick?

One thing is for sure; having Michelle Stafford back on Y&R it would make plenty of sense for the writers to go down that sexy and romantic road, knowing the success of the pairing that Morrow and Stafford had previously.

Check out the promo here below.

Now let us know, are you hoping that a Phick reprise is on its way? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.

It would make sense, but I much preferred Gina Tognoni with Joshua Morrow.

Agree. Tognoni elevated her scene partners’ sometimes lacklustre performances. She made Thompson, Bergman and Morrow look like better actors than they probably are.

Tognoni just had an over-all greater connection and chemistry with your on-screen counterparts, all while bringing in a more in-depth, developed performance to the role of Phyllis.

Scott, Adam here, like your comment, yes GINA is needed badly!

She really is but, at this point, I wouldn’t want her walking back in CBS Television at all.

I definitely agree, really miss Gina!

I do, too, and I think it’s sad that another daytime soap hasn’t picked her up. Unless she’s chosen not to pursue another role, due to the result of her run as Phyllis, which was insulting and wrong.

I agree, I really miss Gina Tognoni. She brought more depth to the Phyllis.

She really did. In the five years that Tognoni portrayed the role of Phyllis there was such development in the character; in the past year, Josh Griffith has completely undone that with his fall-back writing.

In full agreement!!! I miss Gina as Phyllis so much!!! She made the character have many dimensions and was great with Josh/Nick. Michelle is beyond annoying and extremely flat. Watching MS creates the sensation of fingernails on a chalkboard.

I agree with you Margherita! I miss Gina as well. To me she really understood Phyllis and put her own spin on the character. I am still not use to Michelle yet. I was looking at old Michelle clips and to me they are totally different then what she is doing now. Like she is going through the motions and doesn’t want to be there. They need to refreshen the whole show. Move forward, not backward. I am so tired of Connor already. I don’t know who is whining more, him or his mother. And don’t even start me on Theo. If they put him with Lola, I will scream. He makes my skin crawl. Devon needs to grow a pair and to stop feeling sorry for himself. He owns his own penthouse complex, he is in partnership with Abby in a restaurant, and he has the foundation he started with Neil. What more does he want. And can Abby be anymore obvious about throwing herself at Chance? Sickening. They need to bring Gloria and the Fenmores out of hiding. And not just for the holidays. I am sick of seeing the same faces all the time. I know it is just a soap opera and I need to get a grip. Thanks for listening one and all. Happy viewing and Happy Holidays

soapqueenforever,
I can only make this response to your comments. DITTO and an extra one added for Christmas. Have a good one, New Year too!

Eww, gross. The actors are both phoning in their performances, so they are compatible in that way. But seriously, the ick factor with these two is off the charts. Their scenes are painful to watch. I imagine the terrible dialogue written for them isn’t helping.

Not again please! You know somewhere down the road Sharon will be unattached and we once again will have the Sharon/Nick/Phyllis triangle.

NOT AGAIN PLEASE?! OMG. Why do the producers hate Nick & Sharon?! Stop prolonging the inevitable! Nick & Sharon are Victor & Nikki!

Nick and Sharon were never inevitable. That was always made up by the Sharon fans. They stayed together way too long and they outgrew each other They have about as much chemistry as a wet dishrag. They have tried time and again to put them together and frankly, they are just not there. Sharon fans would love to keep force-feeding this dead couple to make their fantasy come true, but that is all it is a fantasy. They are like watching paint dry. Nick and Phyllis deserve to be the couple they were created to be and they need to be Sharon free, without the screwed up writing of Maria Bell and Phelps, who both destroyed the most winning couple in daytime. Why they did that is crazy to me. Why would anybody destroy what is working for something that doesn’t work at all? If they are writing to keep people coming to their message boards, you can tell it because the stories don’t make any more sense than the message boards do and frankly, the hate by the Sharon fans on the CBS message board is so over the top you have to wonder what is actually watching this show. It is tiresome to constantly hear obsessed fans hate Phyllis over an idiot like Sharon anyway. People would watch this show more if they weren’t run off the message boards by the 6 hoggish Sharon fans who persist in pissing off Phyllis fans and running them off. They figure this isn’t worth it and don’t watch. Maybe the show should consider that.

More uninspired mediocre writing from Griffith and co. Stafford hasnt even had any scenes with Jasons Billy and now hes circling Amanda in a dive bar like a lowlife. Nick and Sharon barely share scenes either.
Now because both characters have no point lets just put them together again?
So we have to wait a full year before Griffith can be fired again right?

Word on the street is Griffith is on the chopping block but personally it does not matter because they will just replace himwith another recycled writer they are bleeding viewers every week I miss so many of the actors that made this show great . I for one am not interested in the Chelsea show never missed her and Stafford is all over the place and MO has no chemistry with anyone all I see is just reruns and Braeden are you happy you have less screen time then before. I will tell you this however CLB is still cheerleading the show and the way they have treated this multi Emmy award winner is unbelievable ! Gina was treated badly bringing back Stafford backfired she told everybody in every interview that she was done at Y&R of course Burton said the same thing about GH and he is back . I always felt this pairing was like two horny teenagers no substance .

Oh really!!??
Great news.
Thhe original story of Sharon/ Nick / Phyliss penned by Kay Alden I believe was soooo soapy and seductive! Ohhh how i miss the last good run of y n r! Sharon was also circling for Brad!.
Thats when a real writer and a team with vision penned the show!
Josh makes up new dangling pointless plots every week.he shows up half asleep. When they fire his untalented ass in 2020 he can go back to slumber.

Also Michael Baldwins character like Michelles new Phyliss imo has become tooo cartoony. I hate how Michael always pops into scenes overly cheery. Especially when he bumps into the Newmans. Ugh. I want the old grumpy Michael. I hope Fenn stays around. I would love a story again with the Fenmores. Theo is Fenn lite. Cut him fast. Painful

You would have to be dead not to have seen this one coming. Nick too! Phyllis does not need nudging from Adam, as she has been in Nick’s face for weeks.
I also bet I’m not the only one who saw the sparks fly between Rey and Victoria and Billy and Samantha.

I may be in the minority but I could not stand Gina’s ever angry persona. She had but one face from the time she was given the part. Michelle Stafford came to the show as the original Phyllis and remained so for twenty years so I think she pretty much knows Phyllis. Gina was nowhere near who Phyllis is.

No thanks.

I really hope this reunion never happens. I never liked them together in the first place.

I have been watching this just because I am a fan of Phick and I am hoping that the show will reunite them. They light up this rather boring show and frankly, they have unbeatable chemistry. I just love this couple!

I hate devious manipulating Phyliss.Please don’t put Her and Nick together

Y&R Preview: Matt Clark Asks Phyllis on a Date, Would You Be Down for the Pairing? Roger Howarth & Michelle Previously in GH’s Franco/Nina Romance

Published

By

The Young and the Restless seems to be toying with a potential romance between amnesiac Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) and Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford).  Now, on all-new episodes of the top-rated soap opera, the official Y&R Preview for the week of June 22-26, shows a moment where Matt attempts to ask Phyllis out on a date!

The two are sitting at the GCAC having drinks. Suddenly, Matt says. “Once upon a time, there was a man who had no memory. And he met a woman. And then he asks her out on a date.” Phyllis looks at first confused, but then inquisitive? Would Phyllis even dare go out with Matt given what he has done to the former love of her life and father to her daughter, Summer, the one and only Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow)?

If Y&R head writer, Josh Griffith does plan to go there, does Phyllis somehow fall in love with this guy, because she did see him come to the rescue of Nick when he OD’d? But, would Phyllis date Sharon’s (Sharon Case) rapist?

GENERAL HOSPITAL’S FRANCO AND NINA

This isn’t the first time that Daytime Emmy winners, Roger Howarth and Michelle Stafford have appeared on a soap as a romantic pairing? Look no further than then January of 2016  when both appeared on ABC’s General Hospital, when after months of dancing around their sexual tension, Franco Baldwin and Nina Reeves had sex.  The two characters had quite the unstable past which drew them together.

After the sex scene aired on GH, and the series moved the relationship between the duo (known on social media as #nico) forward, Michelle Stafford spoke to Michael Fairman TV where she shared on working with Howarth.

At that time, Stafford expressed, “What woman doesn’t want to see Roger Howarth on-screen?  He’s super sexy, and that is just that! (Laughs) With Roger, I am going to get a really great actor to work with, who likes to play, and really can act. I appreciate that about him. I am just really interested to see what the writers are ultimately going to do with these two characters.”

When addressing, why it took so long for Franco and Nina to hit the sheets, Stafford acknowledged, “You have to address it, because the audience is going to go, ‘Why are these two hot characters not ‘doing’ it’ These are two adults. It doesn’t make sense.  They are so in love, and they are not consummating anything.  So, when they made Nina so insecure about it, and being able to communicate to Franco how she felt, I thought, ‘OK, this works.’  She was scared, and that’s true. We are all scared when we sleep with someone we love for the first time.  There is not one person who does not feel that way.  I loved that about her.  The woman in the audience really responded to that. They loved that there was a character who was afraid to hop in bed.  It was refreshing to them, and that was the consensus.”

Y&R’s MATT AND PHYLLIS STAND A GHOST OF A CHANCE AT ROMANCE?

Take a look at the Y&R video preview for next week below.

Then weigh-in; do you want Matt and Phyllis to date and begin some semblance of a romantic relationship? Did you enjoy Roger Howarth and Michelle Stafford when they were paired as Franco and Nina on General Hospital? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section.

GENERAL HOSPITAL Promo: Rocco’s in a Panic as Britt’s Health Takes a Turn, Chase is Called to the Carpet

Published

This week on General Hospital, who’s a fool, who’s a savior and who will avoid capture? That’s the questions that the latest video promo from the ABC daytime drama series offers up for episodes airing June 15-19.

First, after being taken to the PCPD, Tracy is fuming mad that Chase (Josh Swickard) once again believes in his ex-wife Willow’s (Katelyn MacMullen) word. This time, Willow claimed she was pushed into the water at the Quartermaine boathouse by Tracy (Jane Elliot). Now, racy tells Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) and Justine (Nazneen Contractor), “Willow Cain threw herself into the lake and this fool fell for it.” We already know, Justine has been side-eyeing Chase of how he repeatedly has taken the law into his own hands concerning his ex-wife. Will Chase EVER get a grip and realize Willow is a manipulative woman capable of heinous crimes?

Next, Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) comes loaded for bear to Carly’s (Laura Wright) along with two men from the WSB. He tells her that.“We have reason to believe that Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) is on the premises.” Charlotte (Bluesy Burke) is also there at the time and the two could not look more nervous or suspicious if they tried. Is Valentin already searching Wyndemere for Josslyn (Eden McCoy) at the time of Cullum’s unexpected arrival at Carly’s, or is he still hiding in her attic? Stay tuned.

Then, in the heart-stopping moment, its the first we have seen of Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) and Rocco (Finn Carr) since thy went on the run. However, Rocco enters their hideaway and cries, “No! No! No! No!” He sees an unconscious Britt lying on the floor, and fears the worse. We already know she does not have the medication she needs to prevent her Huntington’s disease symptoms from progressing. In a panic, he makes a desperate phone call. But to who? Rocco says, “I need your help!

Take a look at the this week’s General Hospital spoilers promo entitled “Reasonable Doubt” below and in case you missed it the official spoilers for the week here.

Now, let us know, who do you think Rocco calls in a panic when Britt looks to be out cold? Do you think Chase will reveal that this entire time he has been undercover playing Willow to trap her, or do you still believe he is that big a doofus? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
