Young and the Restless

[I'm here]

That whole branch of the show is tired and boring. It's not been right since Drucilla left. I think one of their bigger mistakes was in not bringing her back....and we all know that they can bring a character/actor back no matter how dead they've made them.

I miss Drucilla... and always expected to see her back. Even if she came back as a ghost.... I loved her character.

IIRC, wasn't he seen briefly last year as a doctor when there was some hospital storyline? Was he Ronan's specialist?

Hmmm, don't recall but I do sometimes only watch a couple times a week. I always wondered why they never bring him back - he's only related by blood to Neil & Lily and they could really use some fresh leading men. I mean, no wonder poor Abby had to turn to Carmine - he's the only guy around who's not a blood relative.

Yep!!! Ol' Nate is a doctor now, and a damn fine-looking one, at that!!! He does transplants.

There were no better interactions than what when on between arch-rivals Drucilla and Phyllis. Both were divas and wanted the spotlight.

Victoria Rowell, who played Drucilla, had a petition on her website to bring her charater back to Y/R, but I guess it didn't take off.

Sure and you're right there were NO better interactions than of Drucilla and Phyllis... and then Phyllis pushed her off a cliff....
While I know its not going to happen.... I'm still waiting on Drucilla's return. I would soooooooooo rather see Neil back with Drucilla then with Harmony. Not liking this relationship.

I am not a good one for remembering old storylines, but I thought that Dru backed off that cliff and fell into that river, and that Phyllis did not push her, but may have been close by.

Hmmm... *ponders* Maybe you're right. Why do I remember.. or think I remember.. them fighting... pushing each other around? No???

You might be right in your memory... but like usual... Phyllis got out of that one too.

Yes, she fell off a cliff.

Dru lunged for Phyllis, and oops went over

Michelle and Victoria have some history …. I do not think that Y&R will bring VR back as her and MS do not get along. JMHO.

I found this ….
Victoria Rowell on her version of “Spit take” and Dru recast! | Michael Fairman On-Air On-Soaps | Daytime Soap Interviews, News, Updates and Previews, Video and Audio Interviews

V. Rowell on the spit-take: “During the scene, as Dru is about to tell Phyllis she’s her boss, Michelle elected to freely pick up the mug, fill her mouth with water, and spew the contents therein on me. You could hear a pin drop on the set. No one moved. Dead silence. Michelle began laughing hysterically and couldn’t stop. In fact, Michelle ruined the tag of the scene because it was supposed to end on her but she couldn’t refrain from laughing. Finally, the director said, “Stop tape!” I looked into the blackness of the theatre and the stage and asked if anyone had a blow dryer because let’s not forget we still had additional scenes to film. No one had a blow dryer. Had the “spit take” been cleared with anyone, don’t you think there would have been something to dry me off with? So, I had to excuse myself from the set to dry myself off. Michelle screamed at me, “You have to stay wet for continuity.” I continued to climb the stairs and finally dried myself off. When I returned, Michelle was gone. When she twirled back on the set, she was hysterically out of control. She wasn’t laughing this time but she was hysterical with [former co-executive producer Ed Scott] following behind her saying, “Just finish the scene, Michelle. Michelle looked at me, and said to me, “You are a freak and no one here likes you.” I responded, “Are you ready to run lines? We have another scene to do.” AND this is VR's account of it.

Y&R’s Michelle Stafford on Phick, Rowell, & wheelchair bound Phyllis! | Michael Fairman On-Air On-Soaps | Daytime Soap Interviews, News, Updates and Previews, Video and Audio Interviews

Michelle on the controversial “spit scene” that was discussed by Rowell in an interview at Daytime Confidential: “Before we taped the scene, I told everyone that I thought Phyllis should do a spit take at the moment where Drucilla said something shocking. Everyone agreed. Unfortunately, some of the spit got in her face. Technically, I guess I did spit on her, but it’s not true that I did it on purpose. That’s what happened. You can ask the director. I saw Vicki recently and we had a pleasant talk about my daughter. Before I left the show I even picked her brain about adopting. I valued her knowledge because of her history [with the foster care system]. Listen, I really consider ourselves friends. It’s hurtful to me that she would say anything bad about me now. I don’t understand it because I thought we were OK. She’s a fantastic actress. I loved working with her. There was one point I didn’t like so much, but overall, I thought we worked really well together. If I didn’t like Victoria, I’d probably not go on the record about this and just issue a no comment. Usually no comment means, “Oh, I have a big comment [laughs]!” AND this is MS's account of it.

Somethings are unforgiveable. I'm with Victoria. The laughing with no apology, especially if you could see that I was enraged.....she should be glad that that she was not decked. That was beyond rude. Some people will tolerate things that other people will not. Spitting, in my opinion, will not get you a free pass.

[Fanny Mare]

Two accounts of the same thing.
