    Just found this article. It was interesting to hear about first Jack. I never saw him as I’ve watched Y&R under 3 years, but I like Peter as Jack. However, I thought it a bit ungentlemanly to mention the maid s/l such in a negative way (even though I agree with him) since Kate Linder still works on Y&R & I believe she has been there longer than he. I’m also suspect of some of the things he says about Eric Braeden, as I’ve heard EB say something quite different as to certain subjects. But, I still really like him as Jack!

    Pros: JoJo is entertaining
    Love Janna’s character
    Hate to say it, but I like Gloria and Jeffery
    Nikki and Victor
    Noah and Eden
    Michael and Loren

    Cons: Patty and Emily lookalikes (Saw that with Katherine and Phylis already)
    The new Malcom
    The cancer storyline
    Boring Chance
    Boring old looking Mac
    Evil Adam
    The baby swaping
    Stupid Ashley
    Stupid Slutty Sharon
    Stupid Doctor who switched babies
    Can’t stand Old Phylis with Nick
    Trashy Billy
    A worthy stoyline for Davon
    Emily and Jack getting married after knowing each other a couple of days
    The unrealistic Mac being a serogate when she has never carried a child full term

    Looks like too many cons, time to stop watching Y & R!!!!!
    Bergman, you have a nasty mouth. Try being more professional and keep your nasty comments to yourself about your co-workers

    I met Terry Lester at CBS in the early 80′s.He was playing packman in the eatery and Introduced myself and he was a bit dismissive but then again he could have been having a bad day.I told him I was a fan of his work and he smiled and said thanks and went back to playing the game.So everyone has a bad day.I have read things about T.Lester not liking the fact that W.J.Bell used the show to showcase his own family.There is alot of nepotism in the biz right and wrong.And to be fair His daughter Lauraless Bell has no range as a actress.

    The Terry Lester departure story was that he did not like working with the actress who played Cricket/Christine who was terrible actress. I LOVE Peter Bergman. But, his assessment of where the stories should focus is not the same as mine.
    I love all the Fisher/Baldwin clan. And I typically ffwd thru Vic and Nik. Would love to see Jack and Jill pairing.

    The writers are anticipating a Victor void by bring in new bad guy Tucker McCall. And having a younger tycoon with biological ties to a Y&R original gives him a basis for a more permanent place on YR.

  • Michael

    The last time Y&R was any fun was back in ’04 when Katherine fell off the wagon upon the disclosure that Jill was her daughter. Now that was great viewing!

  • JEAN

    I HAVE BEEN WATCHING Y AND R SINCE DAY IT STARTED, TERRY WAS GOOD HE WAS BETTER AT BEING A REAL ASS THEN JACK IS, JACK HAS A HEART EVEN IF HARD TO FIND SOMETIME, PROBABLY MEANS HE IS NICER IN REAL LIFE,I LOVE HIM WITH PHYLISS,I WISH SHARON HAD FELL IN VOLCANO SICK OF HER NEEDY CRAP AND WHO WOULD EVER BE WITH A MAN THAT DID WHAT ADAM DID TO HER,SHE IS SICK AND LOOKING OLD. NIKKI NEEDS TO QUIT TRYING TO LOOK YOUNG AND DO SOMETHING WITH THAT LONG HAIR SHE LOOKED TERRIBLE ON 2.14
    OF COURSE THE SHOW WOULD KEEP GOING WITHOUT VICTOR, NICK COULD TURN INTO HIM. THE ONE HARD TO REPLACE IS MRS KAY CHANCLOR, TALK ABOUT GREAT ACTRESS AND SHE IS 82 YEARS OLD. I WI SH THEY WOULD LET VICTORIA AND BILLY STAY MARRFIED AND NOT LOOSE THE BABY.
    MY FAVORITE IS JEANNIE COOPER OF ALL OF THEM, JILL IS GOOD IN HER ROLE,SHE WAS IN ANOTHER ONE WHERE SHE PLAYED A GOOD HEARTED HOOKER. AVE MONEY CUT CLORE, KEVIN, SHARON AND ADAM, ADMA CRAP GETTING OLD

    I READ WHEN TERRY DIED HE WAS GAY AND DIED FROM HIV AND LOOKED IT BEFORE HE DIED

  • JEAN

    I AM DISAPPOINTED THAT JACK HAD TO USE FILTHY WORDS IN HIS INTERVIEW EVIDENTLY HE IS SO IN LOVE WITH HISSLEF HE THINKS THAT IS OK AND COOL, IT IS NOT COOL AND HE SHOULD CARE MORE ABOUT HIS IMAGINE BUT WITH HIS MONEY HE DOES NOT HAVE TO WOULD LOOK MUCH BETTER IF HE DID HE IS ARROGANT, HIS AGE IS MISSING IN HIS BIO ANOTHER SILLY FACTOR

  • nancy
