Heh, did you catch the other day when they pretended Faith was at Sharon's house? (looked it up, 12/19). Noah and Sienna and were all "Oh, isn't it nice that Faith was here! Too bad she had to leave already! But it was so nice to meet her, she's sweet! Now she left with her security detail!" WTAF. The old school way of not mentioning unseen characters was actually better. They over-explain so much, it's crazy. I didn't need to be told Claire was sooo busy wrapping presents that she couldn't come to Billy's house. I would not expect Claire to be sitting in on Billy's visit with his kids, cause she isn't one of them.

Lord, the way JG scrolled wikipedia to come up with the Victor/Nikki and Jack/Diane Christmas gifts. And what was with the Sally Emmy bait speech to Victoria, of all people? And it just droned on and on and on.

Michael Easton portrays the dead dead Shawn, kidnaps Lauren and chains her to either a sewer or a small room filled with garbage, as Michael coordinates the search at Crimson Lights. Esther wipes down the tables, looking appropriately concerned. Lauren is rescued and the couple has a romantic reunion at the GCAC suite, which Phyllis barges in on. All agree Phyllis is a wonderful friend.

I would love a meta scene where Matt Clark comments on how GC has changed, except his old stomping grounds, the coffee house.

Mona!!!

Alexa Havins is so good but it really is a shame the writers took away all the spunk and fun.

Is there a time stamp for when he talks about exiting BTG? I skimmed but couldn't find it.

Not terrible choices but would have loved to have seen something we haven't seen. I wonder why they would show Kay's party when the Chancellor Mansion isn't even shown anymore. Wonder if it or Jill is coming back.

Omg that's a shocker. What a beautiful and thorough article in the Hollywood Reporter. So many details I never knew. Story wise I'd like it if we learned Luke really died saving women from being trafficked after faking his death on the train in 2022, taking over Bobbie's work. a sort of redemption for what Luke was.

Is the Abbott launch party not getting cancelled this time because no one showed up? 🤣

All narrated from the sofa in her room at the GCAC!

I generally prefer these clip shows over the day to day "action," but this one was pretty boring considering it's always the same scenes that we've seen for CLB and TEB's anniversaries. The staging of these is getting worse and worse... Victor's tribute for example was a big party, Lauren's special was that lame event at Society where we only saw them in the lobby but at least they had Gloria and Fenmore there... now it's pretending Gloria was on the phone and Fen texted them... they just sink lower and lower. Lauren was even worried Gloria would butt in... apparently she lives in town, under a bridge somewhere. They've also stopped showing clips of anyone who's not already in the episode.

I liked it fine. I wasn't expecting anything more than a party at the club with holiday decorations. It was entertaining and there was humor. I liked that it was something less than formal, with some really cute coats and sparkly sweaters. Festive. The pretending there was ice skating and all was cringe. I don't buy the Greg Vaughn character as a doctor.

The big action scene last week was literally Victor taking over MattClark's company while he sped around in a car chase against a CGI background. 🤣

To the poster named LifeRepublic1382, unfortunately your upload to the Y&R Vault did not go through if you want to try again please. ☹️ B&B fans... can anyone help with the folder titled "Random Items to be Sorted - Delete if it already exists" A lot of them are undated. If you all can confirm those are all years we have fully and in good quality, I will go ahead and delete.
