Why can't they just give the nomination to whoever came in 5th?

When they keep mentioning how they need to prove Diane is not guilty, I wish they would bring back Steven Ford's Andy to act as PI.

Thank you!

It would be great if users could have an option to disable the sidebar totally. It often contains spoilers. Thanks for looking into it, appreciate you listening to feedback.

An angel has finished off 1994 in the Vault. Thanks so much!

I liked her too. Debbi Morgan was stunt casting and it was too convenient to say here's Yolanda but now she's clean and has a different name. They should have just made her a new character.

Didn't expect her to ever come back! I liked her take more than Debbi Morgan's, honestly.

That's awesome! Too bad Deacon isn't going there to test new pizza recipes, Sean Kanan speaks Italian and was on their DWTS.

Great find!

Well. If you click on the article here's a picture of all the actors from the show who were there. An interesting choice...

Another notch on her belt!

The 2004 one is when Phyllis dressed as a man to infilitrate Dominick Hughes' jail cell. This is the recap from the 2005 one. I didn't even remember the story, just the outfit: Disguised as a reporter from Georgia, Phyllis talked to Glenn Richards about the possibility of including Dominic Hughes in a story she was writing about parole violators. She pointed out that it was a compelling story that the D.A. took the word of a convicted felon in violation of his parole over the father of a murdered son. When Glenn told her that their meeting was over, she said that was okay. She still had to get a different side of the story from the attorneys, Christine and Michael.

What I want to know is why they can spring for those extras and not a couple of plainclothes cops to help Chance.

LOL at posting that makeover as if it changed her appearance in any way. I hadn't watched the funeral yet. That's really bad. I remember when Reva came back to GL wearing a big ass hat and standing behind curtains to hide herself and it was so dumb. Phyllis is just standing there openly facing the crowd! Unbelievable. I posted these pics in the spoiler section of Phyllis' previous disguises. It kind of sums up the show. 2004 - A really good effort. 2005 - A significant drop in quality. 2023 - Not even trying.

It seems like they want us to feel sorry for Phyllis when she's stewing alone in her hotel. She did this to herself. If she feels bad and wants to reunite with her family, she can literally do that at any point. Diane is a whole other weird thing. It's hard to justify or understand who she is; she was perfectly nice in the 80s and 90s, then they turned her into a villainess, and then I like to pretend the Maura West thing never happened at all (and that's how I'd have brought Walters back - it was an imposter and I'd have her say "How could you all have thought that was me? She looked and acted nothing like me!"). But... if we're taking the story at face value, Diane faked her death because her life was under threat and she made a decision that her son would be better off with her dead than being on the run with her. Phyllis is faking her death because she just doesn't like Diane. She's taking revenge against Diane for stealing her life which she technically didn't. Diane gave Phyllis the rope and she blew everything up herself. Jack dumped Phyllis because she made it clear she only slept with him so she could mark her territory and rub it in Diane's face. The issues this has created with Phyllis' job and her relationships with her children all stem from her own behavior. I actually like this aspect of the storyline. Diane is a master manipulator and does it without breaking a sweat, secure in the knowledge that Phyllis will get bent out of shape over nothing and turn everyone against her. Phyllis deliberately did and said things in her last days to make sure that her children would feel the maximum pain and guilt when she died. That's totally sociopathic and much worse than what Diane did. And I'd love to see her kids turn strongly against her when she comes back. For me, Abby never had chemistry with any of the Chance actors, including her own husband, lol. There was just never a point to this couple other than JG thinking that if you say "Abbott! Chancellor! Newman!" every so often that it's honoring history. I really think the only reason they brought Chance back was so they could bring Adam back with a dumb spoiler about "Adam being found in Vegas with a member of the *gasp* Chancellor family" and then they married Chance and Abby so they could say it was the EPIC union of the three core familes. And then they made it SUPER DUPER EPIC by using Devon's sperm and making their baby a Winters-Chancellor-Abbott-Newman. There was never really any reason whatsoever that Abby and Chance otherwise had anything in common or any reason to like each other at all. At least Abby and Devon have some connection based on their longterm friendship even though I don't care for that couple either.

I forgot about Jack. You would think these new BFFs would talk about him once in a while. Well, maybe now they can raise him together.

What a legend! RIP

Not sure who is lazier - Soap Opera Digest or Y&R's production office.

Lest we forget Phyllis is a master of disguise!

Just a way to pass time, like everything else, but I'm enjoying the performances at least (except for MS herself lol). I do look forward to her kids finding out it was faked. Agree that everyone will forget soon enough. It couldn't have been more obvious... from "hey kids, in case anything happens to me, ahem ahem, I am so proud of you and love you so much!" to Jeremy insisting he had to be at the hospital but somehow never leaving, as if he knew she wouldn't make it... to Phyllis yelling "poison poison" to the EMT.

Paul and Christine should sing ding dong, the witch is dead!

@soapfan770 good job! Some additional possibilities (not to take away from yours at all!). I'm not even going to comment on 80s and 90s cause I feel like you can't go wrong in picking anything from then. 2000 - Mac crowned prom queen 2003 - Victor confronting his father (I think this one or Victor's mother from 1984 definitely deserve to be there!) or Kevin burning down Gina's (the only remaining original set as it was once Pierre's) 2009 - Kay proving that she is Katherine Chancellor 2010 - Nina reuniting with her son just as Chance is presumed dead 2013 - Lauren's affair and almost getting divorced from Michael 2018 - JT abusing Victoria

Hah. That was when they thought Summer might be Jack's after all and Phyllis wanted to break up Summer and Kyle because that would make them siblings.

Michael is actually going to have a storyline? Or is the message going to be about Phyllis?

I am surprised considering he didn't go to the 50th anniversary party (though neither did some of the current cast!) or the bicentennial gala. So I guess it was just a scheduling issue keeping him away. That's great.
