Even though DAYS drops streaming in the early morning USA on Peacock, Canadians don't get Peacock. Canadians get DAYS the same day but on the W Network in the afternoons. So I suggest using the Canadian broadcast times. And for Y&R, of course I suggest continuing the current tradition of whatever happens during the day-ahead Canadian airdate to be a spoiler. So it's a spoiler until it's aired in USA west coast.

A Malcolm/Sharon scene! I remember their friendship while Neil/Phyllis/Nick were out searching for runaway teens Lily and Daniel. Unfortunately, since we know Malcolm is here for only two episodes this week to wrap his arc, his interaction with Sharon will probably be only a few seconds.

My watching has been sporadic. My understanding is that this Genoa City "Shadow Room" is an exact replica of the same bar in another city? And the characters are just saying this? LOL that Cane has the same train on every continent and Noah can copy/paste bars to new cities. The bar thing isn't that unusual since many restaurants insist that the all the franchises or parts of the chain look the same, so that the patrons can recognize it and feel comfortable. Furthermore, Noah had opened that glam bar in the top of the Tower several years ago, and then after he left town, we heard from Sharon's dialogue that Noah had opened the same glam bar in London, so we know he likes to copy bar designs. The train thing is extremely weird. If they hadn't already done copy/paste with the train, I wouldn't side-eye the bar. But two years in a row, it's obviously just Y&R management finding an easy way out for the set designers.

On BTG, this is a political event for Martin's campaign. Vernon invited Victor to be the keynote speaker for the campaign event. Martin wanted to invite Kyle Abbott (supposedly Martin and Kyle knew each other in the past in New York). I'm not sure why Jack and Diane are there, or if they arrive together or separately, but I missed a lot of key BTG scenes leading up to this. I'm sure someone will know. Months ago, Devon had been talking about signing Anita to a record deal or something, so there will possibly be scenes about that?

And Victor was arrested for facilitating the rape of Phyllis and she testified in court at his trial. Vernon's staff should have heard about that.

I love Ro Laren! I don't do gaming but YAY that she's doing this!

Protests in Albania grow over Jared Kushner-backed luxury resort https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jun/04/protests-in-albania-grow-over-jared-kushner-backed-luxury-resort the tweeted video says 2nd straight day but actually it's been five days. From June 1st youtube description from Associated Press says: Thousands of people took to the streets of Tirana on Monday to protest against a luxury resort project linked to U.S. President Donald Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner. The project is planned to be built on several hectares of the protected Vjosa-Narta coastal landscape in Zvernec and on the uninhabited Adriatic island of Sazan. Protesters chanted, "Albania belongs to Albanians" while holding placards that read, "Hands off Vjosa-Narta." "The situation in Narta (Lagoon) is that, in practice, we have a protected area, but above all, our state has allowed construction work to continue without consultation and without transparency," said Klajdi Belo, an activist who attended the demonstration. Environmental NGOs have long raised concerns that the project could threaten the area's biodiversity and disrupt bird migration routes. Public alarm grew in early May when excavators began clearing pine forests and dunes to open new access roads and construction sites. Arilda Lleshi, who took part in the protest, said public outrage escalated after a video circulated on social media showing what she said was an activist being forcibly removed from the site.

Yep she's wearing a wedding dress. https://en.barbiepedia.com/barbie/marlena-evans-barbie-doll-24193.html Deidre brought a doll with her to see the Barbie movie in the theater in 2023, but she dressed the doll in pink for the movie theme. She reposted her picture of that recently when Ryan Gosling talked about her in March 2026.

interesting. That's when the show became less recognizable to me. I knew that Dorian and that Jenny. And I adored Anna.

I think Lucy was last seen in 2024?

The tornado happens on BTG which is in the "Fairmont Crest" gated community in fictional "Barrington County" in Maryland. Y&R Genoa City is in Wisconsin and Y&R characters are having a relaxed opening of Noah's bar. But what's weirder is that Victor is in both places at the same time.

Reuters, June 5, 2026: US states preparing lawsuit to block Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros, sources say https://www.reuters.com/world/us-states-are-preparing-lawsuit-block-paramounts-acquisition-warner-bros-2026-06-05/ California, New York and other U.S. states are preparing a lawsuit to block Paramount Skydance's (PSKY.O), $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros (WBD.O), opens new tab, sources familiar with the matter told Reuters on Friday. The lawsuit is expected to be filed in the coming weeks, the sources said. It was not immediately clear which other states would join the lawsuit

Knowing one actor who supposedly debuts Monday (spoiler) I don't think their character is the impaler?
