Quote YR15yrs+: I remember a time about 10-12 years ago when Phyllis' character was one that fans couldnt get enough of. She was always keeping us guessing and her storylines were always something worth watching...Lately the writers are having Phyllis follow Nick around like a little puppy dog. What happened to the fun, exciting, spontaneous devil that used to roam Genoa City sneaking into DNA labs and leaving snakes in peoples beds? I miss her and think her character has turned into a snoozefest. Phyllis has so much potential!! Anyone agree?!?!

Are you serious about The Snakes? I know about the Sneeky DNA Lab, But even in that I wonder how Many DNA Acts did she pull.

Phyllis was only supppose to be on the show for one storyline. But Bill Bell was so impressed he wrote the character in a a regular. The writers did something they do for characters they really care about. They made her very intelligent, then they gave her skills and ambition, then they started to slowly show her grow. People don't change overnight, so she still made mistakes but slowly over the years she has grown and changed. They have also shown her raising very steadily up the corporate ladder. From webmaster and internet guru, to corporate executive to co-founder and co-ceo of two multi-million dollar companies. Phyllis is a fiercely loving and devoted wife and mother.
Michael and other characters have also been nurtured and grown.

But I can think of at least one character who is just as stupid, useless, weak and destructive to herself and others around her as she was the first day she arrived in GC.

The writers have TRIED to redeem her. But look around this board, or even the wider internet MBs. Phyllis is still one of the most hated characters - because of who she was created to be - a villain - and continues to win the Biggest Hypocrite game, time and time again here. They've tried and failed because Phyllis never, ever has paid for so many of the vile things she has done. Until that happens, she will never be redeemed in the eyes of the majority who know her full history.

As for sleeping with Nick when he was Sharon's husband, yes, it takes two to tango. And Sharon has slept with Nick since he's been Phyllis husband. Both wrong? Yes. But I don't recall Sharon ever, ever rubbing Phyllis' face in it or going out of her way to be cruel, malacious and vinidictive against Phyllis the way Phyllis has ALWAYS been nto Sharon - even after she was married to Nick and had his(Jack's) daugther. There was NO excuse for Phyllis' demented and vicious treatment of Sharon after she "got" Nick, so that just puts Phyllis, IMO, in a sicko category well above anyone else's. She'll always be a vile character and now, with Nick, she's just a boring, hateful character.

Great Post, as usual, shea.

As far as her ship sailing and her being a "snoozefest", will somebody wake me up when she will no longer be on Y&R, would really appreciate that.

Quote MichaelGraziadei: I have never liked Phyllis. She has done so many wrong things, she could never be redeemed. For example, breaking up Shick's marriage and taking advantage of Nick when he was in a very vulnerable state. I like her with Jack, but if I could write the storylines, I don't know if I would put her with Jack or tell her
"Adios. Your contract has ended."


I'm not going to touch this one, except to say that if her "ship has sailed", there must have been a mighty big ICEBERG to stop it!


Kinda like Titanic?

LMAO! Message boards where the same handful of posters post the same stuff day after day after day is hardly any indication of what the approximately 5 million vieweers feel.

Thank god the writers recognize that and write the show for everyone, not the extremely vocal minority.

And yet though some said it could or never would happen, the Titanic did sink.

Good thing the writers cage viewer reaction from these message boards as well and not just the robot-polls run by the extreme vocal minority too.

You said it all Soul! Phyllis is calm right now because she has what SHE wants. It wasn't that long ago that she was going bonkers in Sharon's hotel room, cutting up her lingerie.Look at how quickly she slapped Jack, Heather and Deacon. It's just simmering beneath the surface right now. It's just a matter of time. No one, not EVEN Phyllis has the right to lay hands on another.

Her tenure on the Y&R really has nothing to do with whether fans find Phyllis - the subject of the thread - to be a snoozefest or not. Apparently, to a lot of people she certainly is.
