Quote y.nr: 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".
Actually, Brad should still be on the NE board of directors - he capitulated and sold Victor his ownership share of Jabot in exchange for a seat on the board at NE - that was Victor's idea. Brad kept his part of the bargin and continued working at NE - then Victor got all bent out of joint, assigned all Brad's duties to college freshman Devon, and literally forced Brad out of a job. I don't remember that he was ever forced off the Board of Directors.

Quote 2Much2Handle:
Quote Eppy: 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.
How is it that Adam was holding the death certificate if it hadn't just arrived. We saw a scene where the mexican authorities had declared Victor dead - Adam didn't just produce the certificate out of thin air or a xerox machine.

No Adam didn't just xerox one he requested one from the Mexican govt. the day he heard Victor was dead, remember when he showed it to MIchael, and Michael ask how did he get it and Adam told him that he requested it since noone else cared enough to do so.

I haven't seen today yet-but I can understand Adam's behavior this far - But, I don't know how he knows what is in Victors will other than what he was told-and there is every chance that all changed around again before Victor split-or that it was never taken care of in the first place? Neil let Victor down by not stepping up and into the position that was his-I don't blame Adam one bit for firing him-they all ganged up on Adam ,and now is his chance to get even-and he is going to. Whatever he does-they all have coming in spades....Go Adam!!

Yes, I remember - that's just my point - it's not as if Adam was trying to pull the wool over on anyone - he did take action. Why the heck didn't Nick call Newman Enterprises with the news - he had to know NE would be in a vulnerable position, without someone at the helm.

Actually, I don't know what changes Adam has made so far, other than firing Neil. He threatens to make some, but we don't know yet what he means by that.

Quote Patience4u:
Quote restless inside: i am going to take another point of view. victor should fire neil it is time for neil to go! adam was right to fire neil if neil is so valuable he should have no problem getting another job. neil made victoria ceo, when he should have waited for victor to come home. he can't seem to handle indigo, his family and his resposibilities at newman neil only caused more rift between victor's children by mixing things up while victor was out of town. neil is playing his own game at newman and should be held accountable for making changes when victor had already left adam in charge


So you defend what Adam is doing and how is has been acting? Its ok for him to do all that? Neil didn't deserve to get fired and if you knew victor good enough then you would know he wouldn't like knowing that Adam fired him. Let adam dig himself deeper and deeper. I can't imagine anyone approving what Adam is doing..



I agree totally with you. Anyone who has been watching Y&R knows that Victor is very loyal to Neil and vice versa. There is NO WAY Victor would fire Neil without just cause. Little Hitler is just flexing his muscles and he knows that Neil would watch out for the good of the company and Little Hitler wants him gone so he can do just as he pleases! Talk about a pain in the arz!!!! Oh and I almost forgot - Heather living in Victors House - Victor did not even want her to visit the ranch!!!

It doesn't necessarily follow that Adam would be in charge in the event of Victor's death. He didn't even take a breath before ordering a death certificate and taking over.

Firing Neil was going too far and he would have a lawsuit on his hands if this were real life - a very expensive lawsuit - and the PR would be atrocious.

Very bad business decisions.

If Victor didn't hire Adam to bring new life into the company then why? Adam is going to spiffy that place up, yessiree- it was in a rut-BON was doing nothing after what, 5 years or something?

There was someone at the helm - Vikki who was duly elected by the BOD. Victor dying doesn't change that. Adam is making a lot of assumptions here and we all know what happens to people when they make assumptions!

I don't recall anything being said about profits dropping, losing market share, etc....

I thought Victor hired him because he was his son and wanted to create a place for him there to help keep his promise to Hope. I'm not convinced Victor felt the placed needed to be "spiffied up". That sounds more like Adam's vision, not Victor's.

If we can believe Victor's last wishes, Victoria is no longer entitled to any part of Victor's Newman Enterprises estate. Likewise, Adam is entitled, so that puts him at the helm as a major Newman stockholder and owner. I think the stockholders would feel secure knowing the company has remained in Newman hands.

But Eppy, as a corporation they still have to follow corporate law and one cannot simply disregard the BOD at one's whim.

I actually think Brad is a great choice, but obviously Victor is not going to like that....

And I am highly anticipating the reading of the will. I can't wait to be honest.
