I check in on the Young and Restless from time to time and the production value is way down.
In the last episode I watched, they kept everyone in a chair during the scenes. This meant no blocking (no moving around the set). So, they didn't have to do much work on lighting, camerawork, or putting much thought in to a scene.
It was just each person in a chair reading their lines. It was jarring to see.
The Young And The Restless used to always have people moving around a lot in a scene for dramatic affect and to really show tension between characters. No longer.
In another scene, they did let the actors stand but they stayed standing in one spot and did not move the entire scene. Wow!
I've notice the quality of the acting is way down. Sometimes I notice people merely reading lines from something off screen.
Does anyone else notice signs of the showing failing? Do you think it will be canceled soon?
