Another enjoyable today's show. Liking the party/wedding combo. Liked JT and Victoria's vows. Really liked the Victoria moments with Nikki and Victor. LOL @ Colleen and Jana singing. Daniel and Amber's kiss was pretty hot. Liked the end montage. Can't wait for next week's episodes!

And that's a very good thing! :lol:

If there's any indication that Latham is gone, just look at Diamont's air time, she loved him and he was her little pet. Now that she's no longer there, the screen time he's receiving so reflects that.

I believe he said he dyed it for some indie film, so who knows when or if he'll change it soon...

OMG! TODAY's EPISODE ROCKED SO MUCH! The show felt like classic Y&R again, just real people having real conversations without the overwhelming plot point Latham would've thrown our way. The wedding was good, but not mainly JT and Victoria per se, but everything that went on there. You had so many people interacting. I mean, you had the Victor and Nikki dynamic, where they're trying their hardest to put their differences aside for Victoria, then you had Brad showing up and uttering the line to Victoria that "everything worked out for the best." You also had Sharon popping in and being very civil with Victoria and Phyllis. The highlight however was Katherine and Victor, especially when Victor broke down to Kay and told her about Hope dying of pancreatic cancer.

It was also nice to have the younger set and their party as a contrast. I must say, that Amber and Daniel were HOT.....

Yeah, I can't even work up the appropriate level of Brad hate anymore, he's just not on enough. Plus Sharon is shooting him down these days and with any luck he's Victor and Neil will hand him his hat. Maybe it's time for Bradski to go back to Italy for a few years. :D

I've been loving Gloria again recently. She's finally that desperate b*tch again which is very entertaining. I still hope for Aunt Jackie or EvilJeff to stick to her. LOL!

ComaToria& BoreMeToTears - how romantic. As if I care. Ship them off, pronto! The Daniel&AMber friendship has been the best thing about Amber since day 1 in GC. But Graz needs to get this Marina wig, stat. His peroxideblonde hair is FUGLY.

Yet, THIS is what I miss about Y&R. The feud and the over-the-top-classical music... Sigh!

BTW: It's too funny that French proves to be impossible to lip-synch. I love Jill's French voice but she's talking when her mouth is closed and so on. LOL

Saw this at Serial Drama, OMG so much WORD:

YOUNG AND RESTLESS has a similar sliding scale when it comes to morals. Jack Abbott is the show pariah, denigrated for his law-breaking. Which is fine, except that the people calling him out are criminals themselves. Brad likes to self-righteously denounce Jack for lying, but I’m pretty sure we all sat through an endless story about Brad lying about his past for decades that culminated with Brad killing someone with his thighs. Jack’s other nemesis, Gloria, delights in seeing him get his just desserts all the while spending another year without getting caught for tainting the Jabot cream. Or for her and Kevin repeatedly hacking into the Jabot computer system. Or drugging Jill and Ji Min. (To say nothing of her myriad crimes against fashion.) A little consistency, people!

    • The letter reading was very emotional, and Maeve really got to me too. I was a little worried because Vanessa doesn't give a speech at the funeral, which surprised me, but then we got the private letter reading and her true emotional reaction and I was satisfied there. The YouTube channel I watch these episodes on (if not on our Vault), also had upset commenters talk about how Nola's line about Henry not accepting her at first/seen as a gold-digger was totally untrue. It's sad the writers don't do their homework and give fans the respect (and the characters respect). And yep, Bill got up and spoke at the funeral too, which was nice.  I didn't even realize that was Sharon Leal until you said it!  I had to Google it. I loved Sharon Leal in Boston Public back in the day haha. LOL at your Reva/Josh ALWAYS commentary. What is RME though?
    • Leslie is an extreme liar and manipulator. I'm not sure what her point was in trying to convince Nicole she wasn't trying to hurt her. As much as Eva did help orchestrate the entire plot I feel like there was too much piling on. Eva never said she wanted to be a Dupree so Anita was extremely out of line for that comment.  
    • Thanks!

       That's positive and something to look forward to for sure, because you're right, 1996 so far isn't nearly as good as 1995. Ohh - what is Lonatrat?  Sadly you're probably right. I did feel like David was rarely seen once Marcus came on. That would have been an interesting spin, having Frank and Tina be teenage lovers and Dahlia really being his daughter. I'm getting the sense that Tina won't be seen too much anymore, as she just left Dahlia with Frank/Eleni as she's heading to jail for a while. I like the Tina actress too!  Her voice sounds a bit like Rosie Perez to me, which I love. I tried to find her online, but coming up empty. This was the only thing I could find about Tina Crede - a character snapshot video with clips and stills of her (randomly starting just before the 1:00 mark):

      That's wild that the David actor is nearly 40 here! Definitely surprises me.
    • 5-6   Meh. It already looks like a scattershot week.    5-5 was actually a good episode. Damian and Lily. Phyllis finally going on the warpath that I knew she could get on with Billy and Sally. Nate started to question Audra and Victor's alliance. And I was not even bugged by Kyle and Claire.   But then there's Cole's off-screen story. Kyle and Claire going back to being whiny. And them even wanting Adam's penthouse just sounded like trying to keep the set around. And Diane shouldn't even give a flying frak about Billy's opinion. And Tessa, Daniel, and the guitars...yeeeah no.   But hey...JM looked good in that short. And those pants.  I agree. One of Y&R's good points with fans has always been that you do at least see the vets. And IN stories. 
    • One of the things that I found unnecessary and a bit disturbing about Ambitions was that in almost every episode someone was holding or shooting a gun.  Jamey and Ron seem to have the same fetish.
    • I had thought that there was a Tommy Biddles on there, but then I realized I was thinking of Dr. Biddles on Santa Barbara. Never mind!

    • I have watched the scene where Vanessa reads the letter and it's lovely, but I'm really glad now that I never got around to watching the funeral. Henry ADORED Nola! He treated her like a daughter and Stacy like a granddaughter. That's why Vanessa couldn't stand her. He was crazy about all the Reardons. He spent a lot of time at the boarding house. He and Bea--they never explicitly said it was romantic, but they certainly were loving friends. This sounds worse than Bert's funeral. I really did not think that was possible.
    • It always bothered me from the start that Nicole just took Mona's suggestion and never checked references.  A real psychiatrist would have done more before hiring someone. ** I like that Kat's reporter/investigative type instincts caused her to be suspicious of Eva from the start, and to try to spy on Eva and catch her as weeks went by. However, I think that Kat's so focused on what Eva did wrong -- that she won't see that Leslie is the master manipulator, making some things appear different than they actually are. I hope that Shanice's natural snoopy nature will get her to figure out what actually happened to Laura, and who really caused all the problems. *** edit to add: The show never specified what Mona's job was for Nicole.  Home manager?  Office manager?  Head personal assistant?  I'm sure there would have been a title?    Mona asserted today her upset with Eva and with Leslie.  That they used her and ruined her reputation.  I just wish I knew what Mona's job was. If Mona was an official manager, then it would have made sense for Nicole to trust the recommendation, if Nicole thought Mona had done a proper hiring procedure.  But if Mona is just an informal helper, then why wouldn't Nicole order a background check?
