She's a hateful, spiteful, petty, overbearing shrew. When Sharon and Nick were married, she at least tried to show a little respect and restraint (although failed most times). Now that they are divorced, her true colors come out and she has no shame in attacking her for walking past her. The biyatch needs to be put in her place.

A girl has her needs and Victoria obviously was in need of some loving tonight! lol

The romantic scenes with Brad and Vicky will never work because he's a scumbag and we know he's a scumbag. It's sickening to see Vic take him back when we KNOW he hasn't shown any remorse for his fling with Sharon. If he could get a piece and not get caught (and lose the Newman fortune), he'd be poking Sharon right now.

I want Victoria to get her balls back. Forget Nikki being a bitch to Sharon, it should be Mini Victor. At least this would make sense as opposed to that big stripping bully Nikki.

I do give props to pulling the stories together -- Carmen and the reliquery. Jana as a decoy for so many months is a good twist -- especially since Jana killed her for nothing -- as Colleen pointed out. In addition to Dru's quotes, I did like Nikki's quote yesterday to Sharon: "from the Wharton School of Spokesmodeling" LOL. Also Nick talking about Victor and Brad playing "Indiana Jones." At least, they are adding some humor to these stories. :) Looking forward to the next batch of stories.

Yeah, I think they're doing a great job of wrapping all of these stories up, although the reliquary was beyond stale for months, as was Carmen's murder to many people. They need to work better on the pacing and bulk of the story.

And Katherine and Jill's story still sucks donkey balls. I can't believe in the preview for Wednesday's episode Jill is meeting her son and we've had ABSOLUTELY ZERO build up! If this were Michelle Stafford she'd be on 5 days a week?! And what happened to Gloria/Will/Jill or Extreme Catwalk?!

This should be the biggest story on the show right now!

Brad is a god, they will never kill him. I fully expect Victoria to remain on the backburner as Bradley gets another crappy storyline.

But the whole thing with Jill and Katherine is really making me sick. Thankfully I'm about to order some classic Y&R eppys from 1997-1999 so hopefully I have some good Kay/Jill fueding in here! Hell, just classic Y&R in general, lol.

I floved the Kevin and Colleen scenes. I just wish that Colleen was freaking out a little more. Co-Co should have been freaking out so much more than she was...this was afterall or at least should have been her worst nightmare come true again. And I do love LML's irony though!!

    • Cat herself will be a stumbling block all her own as she vowed to Chad to stay away from him, thus redeeming her of her crime morally. Classic DAYS would have them gazing longingly at each other at Doug's Place or Blondie's, while Liz is serenading the room with a song aptly chosen to represent their feelings of emotional turmoil.
    • From what I just recently watched, they were setting her up to go into future stories. She was Emmy nomination worthy in the material I saw. If some viewers did not like her, the character could have been rehabilitated after that sick storyline. It feels like they destroyed a character for fun and then tossed her to the curb. Spencer had chemistry with everyone. I'm just retroactively angry on Spencer's behalf.  You're right about how Cheryl was often forgotten and pushed aside and I would take Cheryl over Josie. I think soaps need characters like Cheryl. Characters like Josie are way too common. Josie always got on my nerves.
    • CBS was back in third place in 1994/95. That was the season CBS lost NFL broadcasting rights which also cost them several established affiliates in major media markets. 1995 CBS was sold to Westinghouse and Les Moonves arrived. 1995/96 CBS was trying to be young and cool to compete with NBC and Fox, but it was an epic failure and CBS was once again in third place.
    • I tend to think that Chad will actually listen to Jen (this time). And that will be the next stumbling block in their relationship, which will open the possibilities for Cat to seek another member of their love triangle... To iterate my earlier thought, I am also not a fan of the person Melissa Reeves, but the character of Jennifer looks so chic this week, especially in comparison to Hope (and Gabi).  That blunt haircut is a winner.   
    • I think Cheryl was essentially replaced by Josie, and it seems likely that Lemay wanted to bring the Frames back into the picture and for a variety of reasons that it would be McKinnons who would make way for them. Cheryl didn't really get many layers -- she was pretty and kind and sweet and faded into the background so that Scott could participate in the AIDS storyline with Dawn. Looking at the AWHP, other than (not very) shockingly being in love with her mother's adopted son Scott, Cheryl apparently went out with Sam and flirted with much-too-old-for-her John Hudson and MJ's ex-boyfriend/pimp Chad. I know MJ told Mary that she had been a prostitute, but did she tell Cheryl and did she tell anyone about Chad's pimping?   
    • I feel the same way about Melissa Reeves' Jennifer. She just makes the show feel like home by her presence alone. I am perfectly okay with them coming in every once and awhile, which probably fits Reeves' schedule better anyway. Their connections to Salem are still there: JJ, the grandkids, Jack still owning half of The Spectator ... they're perfect recurring characters. All this talk of Jennifer being in the wrong regarding Cat is absurd. Jennifer is not being villainized in any way, shape, or form, she's just being allowed to actually be human, which adds odds to the obstacle of Chad and Cat eventually getting together. All inner conflict. Keep it coming!
    • Hahaha. Jean Hackney, Angelica Nero, and the Falcon Crest henchwomen were all straight out of a James Bond movie.
    • My hunch is what you've described. JFP is likely back working on transitioning the show to a new studio and embracing new technology for its production model.
    • The woman who was the co-chair of Latinas for Trump is now complaining about his targeting immigrants that she thought were "safe." I also read a puff piece from yet another "insider" journalist who lives to normalize fascists - this one with a tech bro who was venting off the record because he thought voting for Trump was cool and would show up the Democrats and maybe we'd get Greenland, but now he's getting upset.  These people still support Trump, and Republicans, they just want to make sure they get credit for being respectable. And they will get it.
    • I really do wish someone could. Just a few characters in very simple backdrops, with very real problems that are just a little larger than life, like the '50s and '60s. All the characters having a level of dignity or respect. And their inner lives are what dominate the story, even if there are outside forces at play.
