I approve! I am sick to death of the whining and the crying of "oh Dad wouldn't want things like that" - get a grip! Vikki and Nick have taken EVERY chance they could to treat Victor like a dog and Neil let his spine turn to jelly when he helped Nikki appoint Vicki CEO. They need somebody like Adam running Newman b/c he is JUST like his father and I happen to love Victor. Neil needs to shut up and get with the program. If he was not so busy kissing Vicki's ass he would be CEO!

I think Adam will get that Mustache line and a pat on the back: "that's my boy"

LMAOOOOO!!! This guy is Victor Newman part II! Adam doesn't need to cry and pass out. He didn't know Victor that well, he just started using his name and of course he is an arrogant fool - but that is how Victor's like them. He is his father's son. All the things that the Newman hated about their father, is exactly what Adam is - the irony!

Everybody gets some of what they put out!

Victor always comes back a nicer guy, so he will probably be upset at Adam, for firing everyone that he loved.Plus ,he will not doubt, be sorry for what he did to Nick and Victoria too. So, I expect the hammer to fall.Adam could be in trouble for being too much his Father's son.Just my thoughts.

Victor shows loyalty to those who show loyalty to him, Neil was his right hand man, he knew who should be running that company, and the importance of it being a Newman, that's known and trusted at that position. Victoria, as a business woman, there's no comparison, although I have not been fond of her recent behavior, as a factor at NE, she's the best candidate, she won't turn on those at that company and she respects and listens to the people who are experienced in running that company, while Adam on the other hand, nothing like his father, IMO, not when it comes to runnin that company, Adam is going to ruin that company if given the chance.

Quote 2Much2Handle:
Quote lovinKorbel:
Quote mdtuttle: Victor will definatly have a lot to rip Adam about. Another thing I wonder about is what will Victor's reaction be when he discovers that the two children, (Victoria and Nick) that he wanted to disinherit are the ones that worked to find him and protect his company while JR. was chomping at the bit to take over daddy's spot and not lifting a finger to find him or taking advice from trusted advisors?


Oh wow! Great questions!! I can't wait to see how this plays out. Nick and Vikki should be back in, and Adam should be out on his behind, or shipped back to Kansas.



This may be the thing to reassure Victor that his kids do love and respect him, by their actions of late, that wasn't the case. Victor knows of Nick's anamosity(?) towards him, and how he favors his mother over him. With both of them having his back and watching out for his company, Victor's faith maybe renewed. Adam unknowingly may just be the thing that reconnects Victor and his kids.


I'm glad that you mentioned that subject. As dysfunctional as the Newmans are, they always manage to come together. Unfortunately for them, it seems to always happen after a tragedy, death, near-death, or when someone wants to kill a Newman. I don't understand those people who are defending Adam's behavior. Some say that he is acting like Victor, Sr. Well TGVN is not a paragon of virtue. That's why I can understand the behavior of the Newman clan. They're all crazy! But they still love one another. Adam seems incapable of love, unless it suits his selfish needs. The Newmans will reunite as a family unit....until the next crisis comes along and tears them apart. And then the cycle will begin again.

No kidding, I'm sure they're teaching all that at Harvard. First thing you do when you take over one of the most successful company ever, you turn your brain off and change everything.

I find it comical that so many think that Adam is the best man for the job, even after everything he has done so far. I find it even more funny when some posters state that Adam is doing everything that Victor would have wanted. It's great TV but the only thing the writers have shown Adam to be so far, it's that he's just an ultra ambitious highly educated young man, just wanting to nake a name for himself and who doesn't care that much about NE.

And Adam is certainly not like Victor at all. I guess people forget all those scenes when we have seen how human Victor really is. Feeling sad when there's problem with Nikki or his children. Feeling powerless when he can't help them. Feeling sympathy when his employees, and even some of his rivals, are going through hard time. Adam may think that he's acting like Victor would, but he's so far from being the same human being as Victor. Karen was just so right during her rant.

I hope that the writers do not make that Brad Carlton installment permanent. We know legally that it would be null & void, but with the way some of the s/ls are going, we do have to wonder! We know Brad is going to have to be somewhere, especially now...Maybe he & Jr. can start a company called, "Sneeky & Conniving R US".

Adam taking over NE reminds me of when LML took over Y&R. She fired most of the experienced and loyal writing staff and disregarded character history.....And damn near ruined the show.

Too bad Bill Bell, unlike Victor, is really dead and cannot come back from the grave to exact revenge.

Maybe this s/l is an analogy to what happened recently to Y&R.

I think Adam was working with Walter and he expected Victor to be killed. I haven't liked Adam since day one. I think the reason Vikki and Nick kicked him out of the house is because his disrespect for Victor's wishes. ie Victor did not want Heather in his house and Adam has her over every chance he gets. I don't trust Adam and I think Victor is going to see just what/who Adam really is, a power hungry con man.

I it's easier for people see Victor as cold, heartless and cruel by NOT remembering all the things he's done to show he is not the ruthless man that all want to believe. Victor is NOTHING like Adam, especially when it comes to his employees..... HOw many of you remember the time when Victor stood up for his employees regarding that HMO SL. He hired Cricket and took on the major insurance company on behalf of his employees. Victor cares about his employees, and took on that large fight with the insurance company just so his employees coulf afford health and get the kind of health care they deserve. NO one else in Victor's position had ever taken on that HMO case for their employees.

Victor is a good man, he just doesn't take crap from ANYONE and he doesn't let anyone get away with crossing him whether it's his kids, business rival or even Nikki, that's not a heartless man, that's a man's man.

I think i may have to disagree with you this time, because Adam didn't ask Victor for any of this Victor asked Adam to come to GC to work for him. Victor also asked Adam to move to the ranch,again Not Adam asking. The way i see Adam is only looking out for his fathers business.

All this talk about Adam taking over - who else was in the position to do so when the death certificate arrived? The other siblings were cut out of the will - Neil is an employee, and Adam and Michael KNOW what was in the will. Michael is having a ruptured artery over Adam's assuming the responsibility he believes is his and Michael knows full well it is. Neil was disloyal to Victor and Newman Enterprises when he sneaked Victoria into the CEO position and relinqished his responsibility. Even if Neil and Michael have issues with Adam, they must remember what Victor wanted and stop throwing road blocks. Did my heart good when Adam threw Neil out. Maybe on his next job, he will remember what loyalty means.

There's one huge flaw in your assessment of Adam..... The death certificate didn't just arrive.... Adam requested it to have the power that he wants, he ASKED for that death certification so he could take over. AND NE was not in need of ALL these changes he's implementing, do you really think Victor would want Brad as CEO?????? THis is HIM looking out for Victor, by hiring BRAD, a man that hates Victor and have tried several times to take his company?????

COME on people you have to do better than that, everything ADam is doing is for Adam.
