  1. I wasn't sure I wanted to post on this thread, but I will.  I was 30 years old when RoeVWade was decided.  I could tell you so many stories of close friends and relatives who had horrible experiences because they couldn't get medical care for an abortion.  I have had both a live birth child and an abortion.  I am sure, in both cases, I made the right decision, but to say it doesn't haunt me would not be true.  Women don't WANT abortions!!!!  They get them because of their lack of choices.

    I had a very good friend who was forced by the baby's father to get an illegal abortion.  I won't tell you all the gory details, but she was left in critical condition and police were called to the hospital and she became part of a very public trial.  The man in this case, was never prosecuted for arranging it and she was left infertile for the rest of her life.  

    I could tell you another six more tales, but it doesn't change what is going to happen.  I am SICK TO DEATH about what is happening to women in this country.

    They act like we don’t live in the 21st century and understand how things work. Yes, it’s a TV show, but things like that take us out of the illusion. Maybe a lot of the older viewers wouldn’t question it, but this wouldn’t pass the smell test for even my 83-year-old mother.

    I'm also as old as the hills and know enough to ask the question.  Josslyn was the only person with a key to that cabin and Esme & Spencer left before anyone had sex, so it seems obvious that "someone" had to retrieve the recordings if Trisha wasn't the villain.

    I’m willing to give the actress more time to develop, I thought she was very strong playing angry at Spencer opposite NC (who played that scene with Spencer’s f-boi qualities hyped to the max). I did see some sparks of chemistry there too and I hope they let that develop. I would like to see more of Trina’s spunk, but the actress plays her as very sweet. It took a while for NC to find his footing too. Between Brooke and Maura, Tabyana has some great actresses to take her under their wings. 

    I can’t tell though if the show will just abandon Sprina now. 

    If the switch had taken place at more of an ebb in the story, I think I wouldn't have such strong opinions.  But again, they are just mine and I am fine with others that disagree with me.

    Guess you must be watching a different show. Tabyana is not Sydney and even though Sydney was great, she was  not always 100% 

    I am saying what I personally think of the actress in this storyline.  I realize Sydney isn't coming back, but that doesn't mean I have to like her replacement.

    What if Sheila has a plot to kill Steffy or whoever and accidentally kills Finn? I feel like Brad would tell an awful story like that. 

    I think you guys are probably right regarding Finn's demise.  They don't have to do anything with Steffy but have her go to the Paris office with the kids while she grieves during her maternity leave.

       I hope you're just talking about the stupid talking into the phone podcast crap only.  I like Jason Thompson, and think he's a good actor, and think he's the best Billy ever acting wise and looks wise. Like I've said many times, Y&R needs a new writer pronto, and maybe a new executive producer too.

    Absolutely, as I like the actor as well.  This protracted storyline is just crap and I refuse to listen to it, not the actor.
