I'm team Naomi.

Dani needs a job/career or volunteer project that is something she feels passionate about. She needs that before dating anyone.

Time change update. BTG currently airs at 7pm Paris time this week because Paris is still on standard time. Sunday March 30 Europe goes to Summer(DaylightSavings) time. So starting Monday March 31 BTG will be at 8pm Paris time.

Preview for Tues. April 1st, (GH anniversary). They are naming the cardiac wing after Dr. Monica Quartermaine. This was written before Leslie Charleson passed away and they had hoped that she could appear. Monica is still alive for this but offscreen. The character Laura will be featured at the dedication. The article says that there will be a separate tribute episode filmed later to honor Monica... (it doesn't say but presumably after the character passes away?) From TVGuide March 24 issue: g zooming in:

Meanwhile. sanity and laughter in Canada. Canadian Mike Myers (from Saturday Night Live) Mark Carney the new Canadian Prime Minister. There will be eections April 28, 2025. https://bsky.app/profile/markcarneyforpm.bsky.social/post/3lkyrk6byk22v

I don't think it's Alan, I think it's his evil twin who didn't actually die. Or both twins were evil. Either way, I don't want Traci violated by someone who's not the upstanding person she thought he was. I want to see Traci figure it out ASAP and for her to have the victory. Phyllis unknowingly married to the Jack look-alike Marco was gross. It's called "rape by impersonation" or "rape by fraud", etc. I don't want Traci going through that.

(I didn't post the full-sized bsky video because it's so horrific and auschwitz-like. This small screengrab is horrific enough). https://bsky.app/profile/drewharwell.com/post/3llcvtkjvos2z and https://bsky.app/profile/drewharwell.com/post/3llcw7gass22t Full article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/03/06/trump-white-house-media-social-influencers/ no paywall copy: https://archive.is/FPk5J All the stuff in the article is terrible, so I suggest don't read unless you have a safe person to comfort you after reading.

For anyone who has missed the context, MJ has responded to (or reacted to) tons of social media posts about the show, since the show debuted. For the past four weeks- he has made responses to most tweets about himself and his character, and to many about the show. He naturally has built up followers due to general viewer interest in the show and all its actors/crew/writers, but perhaps also partially due to his interactive presence. https://x.com/iamMauriceJ/with_replies However, I do agree with above posts saying that he shouldn't be encouraging/retweeting/whatever any viewer's resentment of the next actor in the role, regardless of whether the viewer was serious or joking.

Obviously according to date. Current on current thread, and historical on historical thread.

oh yes! Sela Ward's Teddy was awesome, one of my favorite TV characters of all time.

@dragonflies Thanks for posting that great Beth Maitland interview. https://www.tvinsider.com/1183258/young-and-the-restless-traci-alan-discovery-beth-maitland-interview/ Worth reading the whole thing

I loved that! another wordless Dupree moment that said so much.

Ukraine and Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff was *in Moscow* while on that signal chat about Yemen. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-envoy-steve-witkoff-signal-text-group-chat-russia-putin/

I liked Chelsea telling Anita first, and that giving her the courage to be real with Dani.

Brandon Clayborn (Martin)'s acting is better in this episode. (random speculation) Sometimes I wonder if Martin is actually Vernon and/or Anita's son, adopted by Naomi?

It was a couple of episodes ago when the women first approached Naomi about the case. They explained that Mike had wanted sex with at least one of them, and the others were implied. One was fired and replaced with Hayley.

I'm going to need to see Naomi's legal office.

Why are they having a legal meeting in the coffee shop? This isn't Y&R.

Why are these on the March 2025 thread?

I have been watching this rap multiple times. It's so fun. Ms.Tunie's spirit fills me with enthusiasm about life. I love the dialogue-writing for this. Anita messing up names and slang but Naomi knew what she meant. It's just so real.

You are fortunate to be unfamiliar with Body&Soul. That was a horrendous soap-within-soap from Carlivati on DAYS last year. It was disparaging of soaps (but not in a fun way. It was done in a mean way). It was disrespectful of the actors. And so many stupid things that Carlivati thought were clever/cute/funny but were simply annoying. It went on for months and months and months. And the characters who were doctors and other prominent members of the Salem community were randomly working a second job at Body&Soul. It was awful and made many of us not want to watch at all. After that had finally finished filming, Deidre Hall implied relief in her comments.
