Perfect assessment. BF is a solid actor, which is why he stood out at DAYS. On Y&R, he's not even in the top 15. Top to bottom, Y&R's cast is impressive. A huge difference from shoestring DAYS. If JT ever left, I always imagined he'd be a solid recast for Billy. Oh, well. I wish him the best, but I could see Sony trading him back to DAYS - and, yes, replacing the recast.

Couldn't agree more. LLB not only has the vision, but also a deep understanding of what draws fans into soaps. I wish her and Martha all the best.

This is B&B. Just because you saw a white girl on screen doesn't mean a thing - see Luna/Zende.

Exactly. After they clearly realized LY was great, they actually managed to free her with double combo of Finn being her father + $B getting her the pardon. I knew things were headed off-the-rains when out-of-the-blue $B kicked her out as soon as pardon came through - like why? Anyway, we know it's surfer girl who got run over + no way did Lunacy breakout of jail to tell Will she miscarried. She'll be back, but it won't be a long stint.

So it's Katie's fault that the co-CEO's husband got his aunt pregnant with a psycho? But it wasn't a scandal when the former intern: killed two people at Brooke's baby daddy's pizza joint, kidnapped the co-CEO and dated the other co-CEO's son. Yeah, B&B TMZ wouldn't have waited 15 months to break this story. This stuff is why I simply won't give B&B my streams. I keep reading the dailies looking for a reason to tune in, but I can't. Why place all the drama in Lisa's very capable hands only to have her exit? There isn't a single story of consequence right now. Very odd.

Have charges been filed against Li? Has she lost her hospital privileges? Had her medical license suspended? What she did is not some minor, random act. I'm sure it was common knowledge she did the same thing for Finn. It's a disturbing pattern. They sure were quick to hold Grace accountable. I guess Li gets a free pass because Brad can't be bothered. Li has some serious anger issues (strangling Poppy, jabbing Jack) as well as numerous ethical violations. Maybe that's why she and Sheila have bonded!

When Laura opened the trunk, Genie killed it! OC, Dalton's was shot, but Laura would have no way of knowing that. Does anyone else feel like Krisinda is inevitable? Far more chemistry than Mody. Unexpected payoff of the week: Gio/BLQ. I figured Dante's rant would give BLQ an opening, but I didn't expect a hug and calling her 'Mom'! It was so shocked, I shed a tear. OK, the past 10 episodes did wonders to flesh out Britt. The writing the first 3 months just made her so unlikable - and not in the good way. I still can't stop laughing at Carlo's 'Jason Morgan' imitation. I can't stop watching that clip. It's like they finally figured out how to utilize CR in a way that make Sidwell less of a carton villain and someone worth watching.

From the B&B No Random Events files: Others have lived at the beach house, but only Will has had to deal with surfers using the shower....so here it is: surfer girl was the one killed. Why? Surfer girl put on Lunacy uniform after Luna stole her clothes. Of course, when Baker saw a mangled up female body with dark hair in the uniform, he assumed... It's least it's better than a toe. You're welcome.

Talk about anti-climatic. The latest B&B make it make sense - why would Luna escape prison to find Will if she secretly lost the baby? The baby was her only leverage.

Now that makes sense. I do feel the Ronnie story only existed because of ES. You could take that entire story out and absolutely nothing change - except for Laura asking Martin to move out. Even that rift was healed the next time they were together (debate night). I kept wondering, who really cares who gets the Q Estate, compared to all the other stories that had been sidelined just to fit that in.

Maybe like Solis aka Sunny! lol I fully expect that we'll find out that 'Liam's' brain scans were actually Lunacy's. She'll be in a coma, wake up and give birth to William Spencer IV.

I saw the Lull scenes on X today. Why did they paint Lunacy into a corner? LY has been a gift to the show. Unless she's moving on, I don't get it. So Brad takes Luna out of the show and leaves us with Will, Electra, Remy and Deke for the younger set?

It was smart to drop seeds of Stefano being revived because the topic creates a lot of dialogue, speculation and controversy. Fans are very passionate about JM/Stefano, but all will agree Stevano was a disgrace. If that rumor was dispelled early with a Peter announcement - very few would care. Well played.

Fixed.

Compared to the demo disaster CBS has suffered in prime time this season, the CBS shows are holding up better. OC, prime shows are far more heavily streamed than soaps. I really hope BTG streaming is closer to DAYS/GH. Hopefully, CBS will release linear+streaming data for soaps like they do for prime.
