I agree and I also thought it was weird the way Korbel kept locking the door.....I still can't figure out if Korbel had supposedly locked the door before Kevin came into the room......

LMAO @ Pheilla in that wig in the preview for Monday....... :lol:

My Mom was watching with me tonight and asked if someone new was writing the show because it seemed a bit far fetched as far as Y&R goes.......

This show......is the pits right now. Colleen is letting her bottom half decide the fate of her entire family, and then when she turns out to be wrong, I hope that her family reminds her of how much a stupid little girl she acted like.

She makes me sick. And rigght now, there isn't one story on her that is keeping my interest. Maybe that's why I've missed the last two weeks of shows. :)

I agree with those who say that the writing & stories are getting better. I still don't like the art story but with everything else going on I can deal with it.

What I love most is that it seems like Y&R is using everyone in their cast right now except for poor Ji Min. Some are used more than others but if they are not in thier own story, Y&R finds a way to use them and have them on. I have not seen a show do that in a long time.

Latham has some flaws but that is not one of them.

I am very disappointed by the spoiler and I am hoping on top of all hope that the April 1st date in that spoiler is someone's idea of an early April Fool's Day joke. I am not getting too upset about it until then.

My favorite story right is the Phelia story, followed by the Jill/Kay story, and then the Dru part of the Carmen story. All the torturing of Dru and the Winters family has really kicked the Carmen story up for me.

ONe of the things that I really like is the connecting people between stories. Michael is on the outer fringe of both the Carmen story & the Phelia story. Nikki is on the outerfringe of the bring down Jack story, the Reliquary, and the Kay/Jill story. And so on. That is really good soap writing when you can do that. It helps to even tie stories that are not umbrella stories together and give them the feel of an umbrella story.

Friday's show was awesome!!

I had been hating the reliquary story, but it got a bit better yesterday. I was so intrigued by the "hidden" message. I just wish Colleen and Korbel didn't have to be involved. And I'm so sick of Colleen's attitude towards Kevin.

Poor Kevin...I miss Jana :(... but great use of Gloria, who is currently storyless.

AWESOME Pheila action!!! I absolutely LOVED that (as always, I just wish it were Kimberlin)!

    • When the announcement was first made, I did wonder if other plans were in the works. I guess we can always keep hoping, especially as the show has a small core cast.
    • @chrismlAbout Lisa, agree to disagree. Actually at the time she was the only thing my partner & I disagreed about. Naturally she was Team Vicky while I was steadfast as Team Lisa.  About John & twin paternity, I think that like the 3 pillows was a transitory idea someone had that no one else agreed with. More of the attempt to accommodate Philece. About MJ, co-sign, 100% agree, if there were more degrees I would claim them. About Wally & Felicia, always a fan. Mitch? Eh, take or leave. Although I do agree that WGE is a really striking man. Who have I left out? I don't know so that's all I got.

    • Dallas peaked early, IMO. Maybe not a fair statement as I’m still making my way through the first half of its run, but I think it’s hard to argue to point that S3 into S4 was its high point. Back to Knots. Wrapping up “And Never Brought to Mind.” Greg’s introduction kinda took me by surprise. I low-key dreaded his arrival bc I know he very quickly gets to the center of the show, but even though they wasted no time connecting him with Mac, Abby, Gary, and Karen, it still feels like a gradual intro. The juxtaposition of the ending of the Chip story with the heating up Abby’s plotting is quite symbolic of the changes the show was going through. I absolutely cannot imagine Kenny and Ginger having any part in any of this. Yall, the Gary/Val piano theme that they pull out from time to time is my FAVORITE. I find myself humming it constantly.
    • Bloodshed is inevitable now. It’s another reason I’m glad Black people aren’t getting involved in these protests. As awful as this is, I keep reminding myself that 54 percent of Latino men voted for Trump. These people were put in harm’s way by members of their own communities and sometimes even members of their own families. Too many people decided to touch the stove.
    • Maybe I'm still in denial, but nothing about Neighbours' ongoing social media output gives the vibe of a show that's ending. In today's 'Roundup' video, Alan Fletcher referenced that production finishes in five weeks, but in all the show's posts the cast are as jovial and lighthearted as ever. Remarkably so for people who are about to lose their jobs.    Perhaps they're just putting a brave face on things, and I know they approached the previous axing with a positive attitude. Maybe putting an upbeat face on things is a collective way of showing potential backers that there's still life in the show? Or is it possible that they already know the show has been saved, and we'll get an announcement next month when filming wraps and the show 'rests'?   Does any of that make sense?!
    • A very good week for male eye candy on GH. New Michael is beautiful, Curtis's arms looked great in that polo shirt, Cody looks even more handsome with his new haircut AND we got Marco in swim shorts rocking his lovely bod and chest fur.

    • Yeah when Jamey Giddens did breakdowns for DAYS, he would sometimes state in tweets that specific things were his idea that he had pitched to Ron.
    • I don't, since they've clearly incorporated them into Tomas' storyline, and I happen to like his tattoos, but his jackets not fitting doesn't mean they're trying to cover his tattoos. The clothing overall isn't the issue; it's the fit. And I expect(ed) more from Jeresa Featherstone and her team. Very disappointed. He's the only male, overall, whose costume irritates me.
    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.
