I'm not sure if they're trying to redeem this MF or not, because last time I checked, Sharon did not get her baby back.

And after EVERYTHING this fool has done, he's still canniving and plotting against his family. He hasn't learned a damn thing. No lesson, no redemption.

Say what you want about Vikki and Nick being spoiled, Adam came into that family with the biggest chip on his shoulder.

They have every right to give him a hard time and then some, especially after everything that fool has done.

All I will say is.....the writers should try and redeem their style of writing. What the heck does favoritism of actors have to do with, how to be a good story writers. Can someone tell me, 'cause I dang well don't get it....

Like others including Ms. P, monster G, Adam is going to be redeem its sickening...

Quote ngirl26: I know I'm about to get a lot of crap tossed my way 4 saying this but I think that Adam can be redeemed. If Y&R can redeem Victor after all of the crap that he has done over the years; Michael after what he did to Christine Romalatti; Kevin after all of the crap that he did to Colleen and I'm not even gonna talk about Jack. But if all of these rotten souls can be changed for the better, then Adam can too. I think he's gonna have to do some careful and shady manuevering in order to put Faith back with Sharon, but I think that he can be redeemed. I also think that Sharon might be the key to that redemption. I think that she is really changing him and I would like to see a pairing between the two. I love the duality that Michael Muhaney(or however the heck you spell his last name) is given to the character of Adam...I don't want to see him go. I think that Nick and Victoria are spoiled brats, and both them and Victor and Adam have all played a roll into the person that Adam has become. He is a generational character- the son of Victor and Hope- and he should be redeemed without being written off. Hopefully we will get some better writers soon or at least let the ones that we have develope some talent. Man these writers suck bootie !


You know what. I mostly agree with you for many reasons. For one, if all those people you mentioned can get a pass for their behaviour, then so can Adam. Don't get mad Phyllis fans. ngirl, you forgot to mention Phyllis. This girl was worse than Adam and now is nice doormat Phyllis. If Phyllis can get a pass then anybody can. Hell, even Jack the Ripper wasn't as crazy and manipulative as her. Also I was so angry when I heard that they were getting Adam and Sharon together. I didn't think I could watch with out throwing up. However, I find myself smiling when they are conversing and interacting. I guess that just shows that Michael M had some good acting traits. I am really, really impressed with his acting. You hate him and then kinda feel sorry for him. I don't think I want anything romantic between Sharon and him but I find myself liking their friendship.

I also find Adam to show regret for his actions which is alot more than any of the other people mentioned can say. It seems he just got to wrapped up in the revenge and took things to far and he seems to realize this now and is feeling remorse. I hope the writers go further with MM and show more remorse so this baby switch can be fixed soon. And I hope he can stick it to the spoiled brats of GC, Nick and Vicki. Those two need swift kicks in the you know whats. The Newmans need to be taken down a peg or two.

ITA NGIRL26. Adam is one of my favourite characters and I would love to see him redeemed. I think he has such wonderful potential for taking Nick and Victoria to task. I think he has been one of the best new characters to come along in a long time. Hopefully this will happen soon.

I could almost agree with this if Adam would confess. In order to be redeemed, one needs to confess and Adam has yet to do this. He needs to go to each person and tell exactly what he has done. Of course he won't because he'd probably go to prison and they'd throw away the key. Adam is evil and until he at least tries to undo all the evil he has done, he gets nada from me!
He's just trying to play the sympathy card and I'm sorry Sharon and the rest of you are falling for it.LOL

Adam can't be remorseful because he is still being manipulative and sneaky. At least Victoria and Nick let him knowe how they feel and leave it at that but Adam always playing tricks and manipulating situations, so I guess I'm not feeling him yet.

I would love for Adam to confess but that won't happen. It never happens with the "villians" of the show. I'm still waiting for Phyllis to own up. (Sorry to keep mentioning Phyl's past but it seems relevent in conjunction with this convo). In the mean time I am glad with the frienship he is getting with Sharon and hope that he continues to grow and will eventually do the right thing (What a great actor MM is. I didnt' think so until lately!!!!)

As far as Vick and Nick go. I hope Adam stick it to them. They are both spoiled brats and manipulate and cheat with the best of them. They just try to put it in a pretty package that I'm not buying anymore. Especially Nick. He's the biggest creep on the show as far as being faithful goes.

Let me just start off by saying I hate Phyllis. But this situation is different because Phyllis wasn't redeemed over night. It took years and years for her to be fully accepted. Same thing with Micheal Baldwin. Micheal spent years in prison for what he did. The writers back then knew there was no way they could redeem Micheal's character w/o jail time. Then they brought him back.

This mess with Adam just happened and he did horrible things. No way does he get redeemed without consequences or at least letting some time pass. It's too fresh and I am very insulted that the writers would even try to go there right now. They had no business writing this character this dark to begin with. It's so unbelieveable, it's funny.

Quote Soulsistah: This is how I see it too Flygirl. The writers are in love with MM's Adam and so they will USE Sharon's kindness to try and redeem him, while simultaneously trying to get fans to root for him because he's sticking it to Nick and Victoria. But here's my thing: Adam is morally repugnant and can't be redeemed. What Nick and Victoria have done over the years does not hold a candle to the inhumanity Adam has gleefully displayed in his torture of Ashley for months and the killing of her child, and now stealing Sharon's. I don't see any comparison to what Nick, Victoria, Jack has done to THAT?!

Adam is a sociopath incapable of genuine human empathy because if he was, he would have done more than have a momentary laspse of guilt while boo-hooing thinking about Hope and CONFESS to what he has done and just take his lumps. Michael and Kevin have BOTH paid dearly for their crimes (Jana - yeah, they threw in that ridiculous brain tumour story to keep her around . That's how you redeem a character: make them PAY with the severity being equal to what they've done. Michael spent "6 years" in jail for his attempted rape of Christine (although he's still extremely shady and constantly breaks the law still ). Kevin was beaten in jail within an inch of his life for what he did to Lily (and was late payback, IMO, as well for trying to kill Colleen and not paying for that). Characters that do heinous things NEED to pay and pay dearly for them before most fans will say they're redeemed. There is no other way to even attempt to redeem Adam except have the truth come out and give Sharon and Nick back their daughter.

Adam is dead to me (I wish!).

Adam has confessed the part of not being gay to have his lawyer fooled (in part). Not a total confession, but at least he owned up to that.

I think he will get Faith back for Sharon, plus begin a relationship with her. Sticking it to Nick "Yes, I can have what is yours!"

Why not redeem Adam? I've begun to like him now that he's been hanging with Sharon. If Phyllis & Victor can get passes on there crap, why can't he. Remember, Adam did not push Ashley down the stairs! She fell, all Adam did was try to create the best case scenario=make sure Ashley had a baby. Now, he is now trying to right is wrongs, but I think he maybe falling for Sharon; which he didn't plan.

While all that is true, i.e. he didn't intend to have Ashley lose her baby, but what kind of monster deliberately tortures and torments a PREGNANT woman with a high risk pregnancy to begin with?! How do you put on a get-up that you KNOW will spook the bejeezuz out of the woman in the dark, during a storm at the top of a staircase?! You mean to tell me Adam didn't THINK, gee, something might happen to Ashley and her baby if he kept it up? Please. And what makes that entire s/l even worse is he allegedly did all of this to get back at Jack and Victor. Ummm, well, the last time I checked, it was ONLY Ashley who ended up getting devastated - and I won't even get into the fact Adam is a sick pig who got a SEXUAL MOLESTER doctor to examine Ashley! Are you freak'n kidding me?! Now Adam is making nice-nice with Sharon after stealing her baby and watching her go through hell and misery thinking she lost a 3rd daughter? Sorry, Adam needs a bullet to the chest. He's a sick dog and I don't think he can ever be redeemed. Chris Engen's Adam had some hope (his chemistry and relationship with Heather was believable). But this sick monster they've turned the character into with MM, not a chance now. He's a stone, cold , calculating character now.

Re Victor and Phyllis' redemption. Well, Victor Newman has been on the canvas a long, long time and has earned the title of TGVN. Adam isn't even in the same league as Victor as a fairly newbie character. Phyllis? As someone already mentioned, it took YEARS for some (not everyone)to feel Phyllis was redeemed - and this after the slam down she got when she lost custody of Daniel because of her lies and trickery with Danny. She didn't get to see or raise her own son for many years and for some that was her payback, although she's done more stuff since, but she gets a pass in some fans' eyes because she too has been around for years and has gotten some knocks every now and then. Adam - what has he suffered? He's been around for like 5 minutes in comparison and came on the scene as this entitled, arrogant "farm boy" and has engendered no warm feelings from most people in town. He's not even in the same category and the actor being a writer's "pet" does NOT justify a character like Adam getting a "pass" for the sadistic horrors he's inflicted and is still inflicting on two women who have been nothing but kind to him! Here again, someone who's innocent will be toyed with and damaged in Adam's sick games to get back at someone else! That's what makes Adam a sociopath in my book. He can't empathize and see Ashley and Sharon as human beings who he's sadistically subjecting to the worst kind of pain and betrayal just to lash out at someone else. No pass for Adam. He needs to rot in prison.

I don't believe that will happen. Nick would kill Adam first before he let's this monster raise his daughter (as Adam does not yet know the father of Sharon's daughter is Nick - most still think it's Jack's. Which means IF Adam finds out the truth, he definitely won't give Sharon back her baby, just to hurt Nick more. I'd put $ on that one ).

Adam was the direct cause of why Ashley lost her baby. Adam could have not stop there, but he didn't, he continue to drive that more woman insane. Now poor Sharon, how could that man in good conscience face her knowing what he did and he has the power to make things right. Adam will never confess to what he has done, he will get caught. Adam has no soul, no heart, Adam is pure evil and deserve to paid. I can't see how Sharon could forgive him if she ever finds out what he did. If anything she will hate this man and rightly so.
