Wow what a finale! It did feel a bit rushed, probably should have been two hours long but everything pretty much got tied up very nicely. Adam’s comeuppance was very fitting lol. Au revoir to the Carrington family, the show has been silly but fun ride for the last 5 years.

It would be delightful to get scenes where Diane, Sally, and Imani form a friendship where they get together over wine and coffee as they gossip with each other much to the rest of GC’s “horror”. 😁 Friday 9/16—Damn Nate!! I liked Nate’s dark turn, SD did a good job with a bold, callous Nate smirking and acting very smug as he talked to a shocked Victoria about his scheme.

I can buy Newman Enterprises being Genoa City’s lone Fortune 500 company that is a conglomerate in the same nature of Proctor & Gamble or Colgate Palmolive. NE having sectors of media, oil, and energy is utterly ridiculous though. And have a very stable corporate leadership minus the occasional scandal/controversy. I can buy Jabot Cosmetics as a family owned medium mid-sized cosmetics company that’s proven to be a formidable underdog to NE’s own cosmetics line as well as others. But a very famous world class Milan fashion house relocating to GC? GMAFB. Fenmore’s I can buy as a last man standing regional department store held on by its west coast division and by it opening a successful off-price spinoff in the same vain of Ross and TJ Maxx but to have Lauren talk about Fenmore stores in Dubai and London……???? The rest of GC has no place in business really. AHVictoria and Abby should be running a local art gallery and auction house together Nate and Elena doctors at the hospital, Billy owning the GC Chronicle on the side while butting heads with its editor Lily, Amanda is the new town lawyer while Imani operates her own PI firm, Phyllis runs a local fiber Internet business, Devon owning his own entertainment venue and nightclub, Chloe, Chelsea and Kevin all three locked up in the mental hospital etc.

I swear I remember this airing on Logo(?) or something back in the mid-00’s. Basically a Canadian version of Passions lol I had liked the short lived Dante’s Cove a lot better. I don’t remember being impressed with this, but thanks for sharing! A nice trip down memory lane.

🤣Whereas at least Theresa at least had other love interests Gwen really had nothing to do outside of her own Ethan obsession? I suppose on any other show Gwen would have simply left town in victory after the tabloid story was published or moved on to another man like Luis, Hank, Fox to at least create additional tensions with her friends & enemies. Except B&B of course where Thudley would still be pushing such a ridiculous (and twisted) triangle on front and center every day. 😂😂😂

B&B: Liam Y&R: Phyllis, Chloe, Chelsea, Billy Days: Leo LOL!!! Now I did like Natalie Zea’s evil Gwen but once Huber resumed the role it was all over.

Two years now come November lol. There’s literally no one else in her age group besides Adam. She had that brief fling with Theo but obviously that was dropped with the show abruptly dropping him. I’m surprised she has yet to go after either Kyle and/or Chance. Instead we’ve seen her get paired with 60-something Jack and now a 49 year old Nick. And Sally is actually the fourth woman Nick and Adam have shared, but the fourth one is actually best to be forgotten 😁

Thanks!! Got it to work finally! I was kind of hoping we’d see a return of a full Days theme since it was chopped definitely for commercials but alas.

I had attempted to watch today’s episode on Peacock but i kept receiving a strange HDCP Error detected message on screen while the audio played in the background. I have never received a message on my Riki like that before and wasn’t happening to other things I could watch. Very strange

I saw @te. answered the questions already but I wasn’t expecting Jasper to come back at all or care about what his uncle did since when he appeared earlier in the season to be very disinterested/disengaged. I am guessing that since Sam turned down Ryan’s proposition that is going to lead the way for a reunion with Steven, who’s rumored to be in the finale but I haven’t seen that confirmed yet. Graham’s voice did a change a bit I wish we did have a Season 6 to explore that more further as him being the new majordomo but oh well.

Katie is such a massive hypocrite….she was the nosy one who stuck herself in Ridge & Caroline’s affairs and revealed the truth about Douglas’ paternity herself. Had she had just stayed silent a lot of this wouldn’t been happening LOL.

I honestly don’t think Griffith knows what to write anymore except same old convoluted Newman drama. Talk about a total burnout. I except Faith will be back on screen later but as for Moses, maybe a throwaway mention by Devon or something.

LOL. Two things that boggle my my mind: 1) Last year Faith was only supposed to be 14/15 (or roughly AAL’s real age) as it was said Faith was the same age as Cassie when she died during her brief underage drinking story with bullies and friends that we barely, if ever saw. Now a year later she’s off to college? Doesn’t make any sense at all and missed out on the teen stories that Colleen, Lily, and even Summer got back in the day. 2) Faith talked about how excited she was to be going to college with Moses, yet there has not been a single mention from either Lily, Devon, and/or Nate. I know I know I shouldn’t be surprised but it would be a nice family moment if they all gave a pep talk to Moses about how proud Neil would be while Moses tells Nate & Devon to behave while he’s away or something. Instead, nothing. Nothing at all. Shameful.

LOL good point. I mean Ridge and Brooke had their own trashy “high on prescription cough syrup” sex story, Oliver and Brooke, Brooke and Thomas and the aphrodisiac berries, Quinn’s Adam & Eve roleplay etc. Somehow all the crimes Taylor, Ridge, Bill and Quinn all committed are all swept up under the rug. LOL.

The season just never found any momentum after the Rita caper ended and Alexis was freed from jail. The stuff with Ben Carrington could have been interesting but played out too much like a sitcom instead. Culhane’s relationship with the dead mobster’s wife got dropped? Not too mention playing out on a Friday night in summer with this season having ridiculously lengthy breaks in between each batch in between also killed the momentum for myself. Btw, the final episode airdate is 9/16 with the final episode appropriately titled “Catch 22”, a nice nod to the original.

Y&R should do what B&B did for their 50th and go back to their 1988-99 style opening credits at the very least.

What I hated most about that story was even though Ridge was pretty much punishing Thomas, we had a very nosy Katie randomly feel bad that Thomas was cut out of Douglas’ life at the time, followed by Thomas & Caroline being uncomfortably pushed together to parent Douglas together at the expenses of both characters (Caroline faking a terminal illness, Thomas abruptly dumping Sally for a woman he didn’t love at all). Thudley’s logic sucks.

If only Thomas had gotten his happily ever after with Vinny! 😭😭😭

Thomas has had a long unsavory history now for some time. He put a car bomb in Rick’s car and then a couple years later shoved Rick out a window. He raped Caroline resulting in her pregnancy. He ran Emma off the road, bullied his son, teamed up with Quinn, faked his death etc. More recently he briefly covered for Sheila which hasn’t come back up yet. Thomas is a very unstable person I wouldn’t trust him alone with Douglas again.

I hadn’t seen this until now but thanks for the update. I always did wonder how Frons reacted to the Chew being cancelled after he talked it up and what Susan Lucci said about him in her book. He hasn’t worked in television since definitely not the legacy he was hoping for I have to assume.

LOL! Since Thudley can give finally give Hope/Liam/Steffy a rest now that he finally has Taylor/Ridge/Brooke fired up again. But he still needs to have something for his pet Liam and Hope to have drama again. Question is will the Hope doll make a comeback? 🤣

I actually thought about a Shemar pop-up but only for him to tell Devon and Nate how much they remind him and Neil bickering….only for Lily to tell us what a wonderful offscreen visit she had with Uncle Malcolm and his famous sandwiches to provide clarity to her

Fan favorite appearances? Let me guess: Esther, Jill, and Nina all move back into the Chancellor Mansion and only appear bimonthly to remind us they live in the Chancellor home together with Chance and Abby, who marvel at how well all three women get along well together. Christine appears for 30 seconds to casually mention to Nina her Paul are going off to visit her nephew Scott. JT and Mac (Kelly Kruger) visit for the holidays and everyone is so happy JT is his old self again and all is forgiven. Traci and Ashley have recurring dreams about Brad. Meanwhile Theo returns to pay the Abbotts a friendly visit on the anniversary of Dina’s passing. All is forgiven. Victor and Nikki realize their anniversary is coming up (see 40th anniversary lol) so they throw a big party. At the end of the episode Danny sings the lyrics of Nadia Theme with Leslie Brooks on the piano. Did I miss anything? 😂

. It’s been a long time since I had seen those Fee clips I’m inspired to dig them up now lol. PS thanks @BoldRestless I had seen the article in full posted on a rival message board but didn’t feel comfortable linking to that board directly.

You’re welcome. The whole Ashland story was a big waste of talent. I was a bit puzzled by the glamour bit for Fee, although I am baffled overall why she ended up on this list at all.
