It's a shame it could never happen these days, but how fabulous it would be for some of the Jordan people or somehow the Mc people to flip to Democrat and really screw their party. Just to say "I've had ENOUGH" and vote Democrat. To finally just get SICK of the pro-trump people hanging on, sick of their own McCarthy-ist loyalties, and just say - screw both of you....just put someone in there to do this job....and since we couldn't get it together, I'm voting for the Democrat. I'm staying Republican, but I'm PROVING I can be Bi-partisan right here and now and I don't want ANYONE claiming I am not - here, I'm a Republican voting for the Democrat. It would unfortunately be career ending and that's sad.

Yep. Turn 53 later this month and it’s really hitting home that I’m the youngest of my siblings and we do not walk for long on this Earth - and I will be alone if things go as they go. My brother is 20 years older than me - almost to the day as our birthdays are both January. 3 so steps, then me. My closest sister is about 8 years older than me. So I need to figure out what being mostly alone looks like.

I understand the need for a villain but there’s just no redeeming qualities and the redemption will just be a small contrived plot point - ie gave somebody CPR, gave em the Heimlich, kept them from falling off a cliff, or shoved them off the cliff then saved them etc. The problem with Sheila is that at this point the dialogue can’t help but be repetitive. ”we have some bad news, Sheila escaped!” (Wow really? Never woulda thought - pass the biscuits please, thanks) “You’re not going to believe this but SHEILA CARTER IS ALIVE!” (Oh wow awesome sauce, what’s for dinner) There’s no interest for me when you see a clip from 30 years ago and it’s the same. ”You will NEVER, EVER! EVER! NEVER keep ME FROM MY (insert whatever), (insert threat) Yawn.

I tuned in about 1:50 and I saw all I needed to see. Is Sheila really rich and only a few people know? What or how or why would anyone align themselves with her....for WHAT? She's not the most beautiful piece anyone ever saw. She never has a pot to piss in basically. What is the draw? What does she offer? There just comes a point where it's just so silly and dumb. We're about 2 years past that. I was even willing to forgive the missing toe, being that I have one too....(not from a bear but at the hands of a very evil Sears Craftsman mower when I was 6)...but it's just not enough y'all. LOLLL. At the end I thought - why doesn't Steffy just call the bluff and say - is that the BEST you've GOT? And leave. Make your move later. Your off the hinges mother is still better than those 2, and if you love Finn, then that's your choice right there. Got a gun? Shoot Sheila dead right in front of Bill. It was self defense and then it would be your word, and Finn's word against Bill as to what happened. And what's he going to look like? A truthful person? Either/or - then threaten Bill - you want your word against OUR WORDS? We killed her in self defense....and your defense will be what -- that you were just hanging out with her? Again, just like with Mom - you either go along with us, or we hang you out to dry by assisting her. Bill was willing WITH a wanted criminal. Done.

Because you don't need to know much more. He's always been despicable for the most part. Dude date raped Hope, then stalked her for months. Years? Seems like years, was probably one year. Used his son repeatedly - impersonating his own son with silly pictures to present to Hope of their "family", dressing up a doll to look like her....and when you complain that it was yet another lame 'brain tumor' story to try and get him off the hook/redeem him....THEN he does more CRAZY shi*.....dude has a problem with impersonating people. For whatever reason a lot of fans are foaming at the mouth for him to be redeemed - I don't watch that often but - yeah, nice to look at. But you have some serious Luke Spencer/Todd Manning stuff goin' on here. I guess it proves that women and gay men love a rapist. LOL. I mean, what else do you say? Yes, it's fiction, but it's also twisted.

That was the other thing I noticed. One day and Christmas Independent Brooke Barbie and Christmas Independent Taylor Barbie are likely already sold out after 1 day on sale. It won’t even be one week and all of LA will be fighting over Ridge again. So ridiculous.

I keep meaning to ask - I feel like on the occasions I happen to catch a minute of the show - Liam is usually wearing a suit. Almost always. Why. ??? Does he still work (where - at Spencer?)…he’s always wearing a suit and it’s stodgy.

Thank you. I read these arguments about who is better and I'm like...neither? Annika is terrible. The best actress on this show was Susan Flannery and there's never been much else honestly other than Heather Tom and her crying. KKL does fine/pretty good. I would say the current Taylor Krista?? Holds her own and is decent. The rest of the cast is pretty much blah. Don Diamont is in Ron Moss territory. Not quite as bad because he's not so monotone.

So - this will seem like a cop out. But thanks for the detailed reminder. I remember thinking of all of this, and why Steffy and Thomas would almost - why would they even CARE about their mother when it comes to some stuff? And this was a reminder of all of that. I've never been a Taylor fan - well, because I watched at the beginning. But along the way I remember some pretty awful stuff (that I'd forgotten). So thanks. This is not to say at all that Brooke is without fault. Where is RJ again? I'm sure when he returns he'll be a Doctor or some important Fashion businessperson - has been running the office in Milan for 2 years or something crazy. But these people have kids and lose them all the time.

One thing I’ve said since the outset with limited watching. She’s far better than Tylo and in the first few scenes was on track to make the role her own, which is a shi**y prospect given the history of the character and writing. Probably not gonna feel sorry for her. I didn’t feel it was necessarily better writing either. But, shocker - she made me feel badly for Taylor regardless of her spoiled brat daughter (back down folks, so is Hope). She was and is more believable, no over the top reactions or facial expressions. I like Tylo, but Krista is just better.

Ok so I’m going to say something I never thought I’d say about B&B here - ever. That’s a bet I would have taken for $ Millions of dollars. That B&B would never ever have a truly memorable moment - that could ever EVER be considered for the Greatest Moments on Daytime - in History. Well I would have lost that bet - because I watched on Demand after hearing about it. This was the payoff that we wished for - a payoff that should have been but B&B is just too stupid to do! Only they weren’t. They got it right. This is me saying this - the negative B&B “I’m over it” hater. They *ucking got it right! Who on EARTH would have ever thought? but also agree - I’ve preferred Thorsten in the role of Ridge except for GOD SHAVE already….but this? Was terrible. Was an opportunity for some very subtle disbelief. Confusion. This was a history making moment! In the history of the SHOW. and this was TANK-ola on his part. Phoned in meaningless acting. It is what it is. I never thought I’d believe someone saying “ it might as well have been Moss”. Jesus it’s true.

I don’t know if it’s true or not but I’ve read in a few places that one of them has “queer baited” before and it’s not true - and the kids is on his chin - that they do it for attention. Does make me wonder.

Why I cannot care about this show - I had it on while working in the background. So 2 things. I think I heard Bill say “just give me one chance” to Katie. Which we’ve all heard uttered to Katie before. And Brooke. And whoever. Yawn. “this is gonna sound crazy, but SHEILA IS ALIVE!” If I’m a character on the show (turns around)…takes swig of martini: ”And? Can you pass me that pipe and grinder please? Thanksomuch!”

Had to look her up, then I remembered her. I haven't watched a Tennis match I don't think since the U.S. Open maybe? Maybe there was one or two in the Fall, but I don't even remember honestly. The game is a mess. No wonder Tennis Channel is about to become Pickleball Channel.

I haven't watched for days - since I saw a scene with Brooke saying she didn't understand the breakup...and Donna helping Douglas with his phone, Thomas telling Douglas to delete it, leave it alone. What viewers should not expect is any resolution. Not any real one that addresses everything that happened. The same thing happened before with Beth/Phoebe...and Thomas trying to weasel back into Hope's life. Nothing was ever revealed about the lengths he went to (down to drawing family stick figure pictures for Douglas, and having Douglas present them as his own)....blah blah blah. The one thing I noticed a long time ago, was don't expect things to be addressed. Other examples - Quinn trying to kill Ally? Tried to shove her off the foot bridge when she said she was going to the police about Wyatt stealing the diamond. Thomas running Justin's niece down (who was she again??). The dude that owned the diamond who mysteriously died, with all the clues that it was Quinn about to kill him (or something) but left this valuable jewel to....Quinn....or was it Wyatt? A LOT on this show goes nowhere. It reminds me of Days with plot devices that just disappear. Other cringe moments - Ivy coming up on Steffy and Ally fighting...and ....you know, don't lay on your horn or anything to break it up. Or, by all means do NOT drive up right to them with your headlights on cause it looks like a fight...and these are your family members so you might want to break it up...? Nah, just VID-YO it. And then tell everyone about it, especially the TIE-YUH ION. LOL.

Me too. Above average skinny decent looking guy. Just a skinny taller version of Taylor Lautner for me. Who I still believe is the gay. Married or not. Another topic for another show as Oprah would say.

If I remember - she didn't want anything to do with the show actually. I remember some tweets or something where she trashed her time there, was over the character (the way she was written) - probably rightly so. I do feel like the latest version of Taylor is much better and possible Hunter Tylo would have embraced the role more as it's being written now. For me at least, Taylor was used as a plot device/pawn for several years. She was literally Steffy, maybe you could say Brad Bell was consistent with that between mother and daughter. Steffy was always on the outs when it came to Liam/Hope/Steffy. Taylor was always on the outs when it came to Brooke/Ridge/Taylor. As far as great looking men on Daytime, like it or not, I have to go with Jordi Vilasuso. Highly likely, Matt Bomer. Believe it or not, back in the day, and still - Robert Newman. Yes, I was a Guiding Light fan but it never ceased to amaze me when my ABC sisters were swooning over their hot men like Tony Geary on GH....they'd say Robert Newman was meh - he's OK. I'd literally fall out of my chair. That race wasn't even close for me. At the time I wanted to say - does it take a Gay man to tell you girls who is hot? Please.

I’ll get into trouble for saying this but - I grew up with sisters who were all ABC all the time and….alotttttttta actors they said were just soooooo hot. All the ABC fans did and you wanna talk about some 7’s outta 10’s??? Some of theirs - now true, while my opinion only butttttt. Roger Howarth (sp) with girls screaming to “rape me!” Tony Geary? Again just my opinion but to me they were struggling to be a 4 or 5 at best.

Lawrence. Has been the hottest for years for me.

I meant to tune in but forgot, busy with work. We’ve had years of crazy Thomas, stalker/obsession Thomas, mentally abusive Thomas, delusional Thomas, date rape Thomas, almost co55 ring Ken Thomas, Thomas draws kiddie pictures impersonating his son Thomas, mannequin loving Thomas….now voice app impersonating illegal child protective services Thomas — maybe it’s time for Incel Stacy’s Mom-hating Thomas. Lollll. I keep reading the arguments that he’s actually the very typical anti-hero but I dunno - I don’t see or get the “hero” part of the anti-hero. At some point there has to be something likeable aside from his chest and I ain’t seein’ it. The dastardly facial hair gives me homeless vibes. Maybe it’s time for Sheila to woo him with her missing toe to help move the ick factor along. The show with all of the annulments and next day marriages is so bad to me. Sorry y’all it’s just silly.

So - I disagree with a lot about Thomas - not a regular watcher and likely never will be again but - how many brain tumors and mental issues are ya gonna toss around? Sex with mannequins? Jeffrey Daumer the dude? It’s just a lot and - don’t care because he like Sheila will never end. It’s a yawner. And shall we go over the real requirements for an annulment? It’s an every other day event on this show. An annulment is actually more difficult than a divorce - and I know it’s lovely to suspend all reality but it’s just ridiculous at this point. Which one of them has an undisclosed STD? A formerly illegal divorce? Bigamy? Brooke and Ridge are actually brother and sister? Fraud - you tricked each other into marriage? These are the typical easier reasons for the quicky annulments. So. It’s great to be fun and stuff but - it gets into beyond stupid. Sigh.

If they were going to do a wash, rinse, repeat like they do with everything else, I'd actually tune in for Lauren. I saw the Halloween episode and have to say - it was far better than anything they've done in several years. I didn't watch B&B regularly when Lauren did her crossover, and it's weird to think....really Sheila has had more history now by far on B&B than on Y&R. But we still for some reason think of Sheila and Lauren on Y&R. It's battle that - if we're going to rehash the past - is a far better gamble than anything they've done lately. (YAWN: CRAZY Thomas, Liam/Hope/Steffy, Brooke/Ridge/Taylor, whose picture will be over the mantle at the Forrester mansion).....they'd be smart to have a lengthy story of Lauren getting revenge secretly behind Sheila's back. I'd tune in to see that. Have a group conspiracy to ferret out Sheila - with one big queen-pin in the background left for surprise - Quinn. Carefully planned over months and months and months and give viewers a PAYOFF.

I have not watched in ages. Maybe just a minute or two but I couldn’t name a story on this show - maybe back to when Dina left, saw some when Robert Newman was on but didn’t tune in regularly. I saw today’s show and have to say - impressive performances by Chelsea (MCE) and Billy (Jason). I’ve never cared for him as Billy and Chelsea has given me more pains than I can remember. But the scene today on the ledge were well done, well written and acted. I will likely tune in again now. It’s one thing about Y&R that has always been problematic for me - I never cared about the characters really. Suddenly I care about Chelsea again, and maybe even Billy.

I've donated - not much but about $200 to Mark Kelly in AZ - like I did before. Also $50 to Warnock. I know it's not much but...in these times...I chip in. But I am getting tired of the begging texts.

Oh wow. I learned something new today. I didn't know what a pendeja is. I wondered how to classify Marjorie and Lauren.
