Additional Comments: Nicki and Jack's baby boy or Ashley and Brad's baby. His miserable behaviour was responsible for the loss of Nicki's baby - I remember watching this at the time. All he got was a pat on the back. It really irks me that he is treating Nicki so badly when she is not responsible at all for this. I wish the writers would bring this up and make him JUST FOR ONCE get his. I think it's about time. If I hear him bring up the fact that Nicki is responsible for the loss of his wife and child one more time i will puke. Why does Victor always get this special treatment every time. it's beyond reasoning!!!

Victor really is a miserable bastard. I remember the role he played in Nikki's miscarriage of Jack's baby, too. At the time (long before the Internets gave us forums like this) I thought that Victor (and the writers) were determined that Nikki would never be allowed to bear any other man's child but his. Especially if the other man happened to be JackAbbott. So he manhandled a heavily pregnant woman, then reacted with smug callousness to the loss of her child. Victor never really suffered any consequenseces for what he did, as usual, and I have always been convinced that he was quite happy with the miscarriage.

ITA. Nicki had no problem forgiving TGVN yet they're treating this (which Nicki had no fault in at all) as the second coming of JC. I think this history should be addressed and put Vic in his place.

I'm taking a wild guess here. Is it because the writers don't know and don't care about the history of Y&R?

Long time viewers remember these things.

NO! because he is Eric Braeden!! Narcissist at large!

Victor Newman may well be a Narcissist. Eric Braedon is simply an actor playing a part.

I asked yesterday on one of the board if it's written in EB contract that he always wins--no maatter what. The subject here is a good point. Many others in the program have had plenty of losses but with Victor it's the end of the world and the storyline goes on and on about it. Enough is enough!--Paula
