For some reason, I thought it was one of the young guys, too. I don't know why, considering the talk about the diamonds. But the way they spoke about it, they didn't seem as incensed about it as, say, Michelle or Jeanine would, because they weren't affected by it directly. The speaker seemed more like they were talking about what was going on to other characters on the show.

I don't think it's Jeanne. She's a veteran in this business, respected by everyone. What would she have to lose? I'm thinking it's someone younger? Perhaps Sharon Case? What kind of wedding ring did Jack give her?

I figured it was Sharon Case because of the authorative way the interviewee singled out Ted Shackleford. However, now I'm wondering if it isn't Peter Bergman.

Having said that, I don't think either PB or Michelle Stafford OR Eric Braeden would bother hiding their identities in a a pretty mild interview about Y&R. I mean, PB went out and dissed Victoria Rowell after she left, and he didn't have to hide behind "Anonymous" to do it. Similarly, why would MS bother? She seems to have the courage of her convictions. And EB couldn't give a sh!t. He knows he's there for life, regardless of what he says or does.

What do Sharon and Ted have to do with each other?

And, more importantly, WHAT DID PB SAY ABOUT VICTORIA ROWELL? I still remember a week before she was unceremoniously killed over the show, the shot of them hugging. It was unreal. I think she tried to stay in character, but I could plainly see the discomfort in his face and body language.

I also remember when Soap Talk had Y&R week and a lot of the veterans were on, including those two. Victoria spoke about being the Black on soaps and the camera shot to Peter's face. I don't think I've ever seen that man's face so annoyed in my life, even when in character by Gloria.

I'm so out of the loop.

I just assumed it was SC because she and TS have been having a lot of scenes recently at the Abbott "mansion." Also, when she talked about Phyllis's ring, it sounded like something her character would be up-to-date on.

LOL, I remember that SoapTalk feature. It really struck me how :rolleyes: PB looked.

PB gave an interview, last summer I think? It was for either Carolyn Hinsey or one of the soap mags. He basically said that VR saying she was never pre-nominated for an Emmy and it was because of her color was nuts. In fact, he implied that she WAS nuts. Literally.

Oh, here's the quote. The interview was with TV Guide Canada.

Aww damn. It's one of those three? Or are the SOW writers deliberately misleading us? Is it Kristoff St. John? No one talks about him and he's been shafted pretty horribly LOL.

But if it is one of those three, it has to be Peter. Judith and Ted got their jobs cause of LL.

I guess it must be nice to be Peter Bergman and be nominated for an Emmy every damn year for the last like 10 years. I'm sure if he were in Victoria's shoes, he'd say the same thing.

He's clearly right about the noms being a popularity contest. Clearly. Otherwise why would Bryant win last year?

    • That would make sense; he is to DAYS as the Quartermaines are to GH, in terms of the hospital board. If only DAYS had a hospital worth being a board member of.

    • I think Arielle Prepetit is great, but I almost wish Naomi had been Nathan and Jacob were Jacqueline (shades of Tom and Margo). We’d have another Dupree son, and the idea of Bill being a disgraced role model for his male lawyer son would have a different resonance around masculinity and generational trauma, especially since we already have Chelsea for the female Hamilton daughter POV. Just for the balance.
    • I actually like Alex/Gabi.   I didn't mind JJ/Gabi, but I agree JJ is a bore.  I am confused as to why Brady is on the hospital board?  Something to do with Isabella, I assume?   If Rachel is the shooter the recast makes a bit more sense.
    • @FaulknerI do agree with you about the male characters. I feel like I've been overlooking that because a female-driven soap has been so rare these days.  They have some relationships they could build upon but not nearly enough. The male characters for the most part don't have any friends or family to help develop them. This is also part of the issue with having only one main family.   
    • I still suspect they won't show a kid holding and shooting a gun. I think she stabbed him, and then someone else shot him to cover it up.
    • Slow burn episode leading up to the main event: Who will steal the drug first? I am hoping EJ connives his way into buying a money pit of a hospital and the drug ends up at TitanDimera. I like seeing the votes being tallied for the hospital board, but so far I don't see any for EJ. Kayla, Kate and Brady, despite Kristen's attempts to control him, all are voting Titan. I am assuming Philip will blow the whole deal for them given the way Xander and Alex were talking today. Alex and Gabi were far more entertaining that his sexcapades with Stephanie. A little conversation goes a long way. I like to see characters actually connect before they jump into bed, but that's just me. I am still hoping for Gabi and Philip if they are testing her with everybody. Guess the new writers were as bored with JJ as I was. Arianna coming back will be fun. Just in time for Aaron Greene to return for the summer perhaps?  The tea party was a hoot. Just the two boys in their hats was worth the price of admission. Belle is obviously well aware that EJ kidnapped Mother Blake and does not care. As long as she is embracing her hypocrisy because EJ is great in bed I am good with it. Kayla was having none of her pitch though. Xander is definitely the lesser of two evils here. For all those guessing Wee Rachel was the shooter. I think that story is commencing now they have ruled out Kristen, Ava, Gabi, Johnny, Roman and Kate
    • The Anna/Jason symbiotic relationship is the one that sticks out to me.  They went way out of their way to tell us & show us that they really think they get each other. Basically they have INSISTED that they are somehow perfect partners. Plus, in Africa they treated us to a "Are We About To Die?" kiss. Meanwhile they have worked & overworked the idea that they were  NOT going there of course because to Jason she is & always will be Robin's mother. Okay, geeze, fine, use time, space & dialog to push a variety of different messages, some of which seem to us to clash! We're just the fans, being told what to think. Don't mind us at all when we grumble. If Robin were watching this show, I can only imagine the "Letters to the Editor"!!! 
    • I wish the Black male characters felt more fleshed out (and I’m not talking about gross 2000s-style man pain like with Jonathan Randall or Billy Abbott). I feel like we don’t have as much access to their interior worlds, which—fine—female genre. Right now, the balance on BTG feels off to me gender-wise, mostly because there are a lot of Dupree daughters (Chelsea, Naomi, Dani, Nicole, Kat, possibly Eva) and only one son (Martin). Feel free to disagree. I think Andre, Bill, and Martin feel closest to male “main characters” to me (Jacob had his quick moment), in that they can drive a scene from their POV and not as a supporting character. I’m waiting for the secrets to be fully revealed so that the men can show more layers. But things like having two cheating husbands stand out more in this type of environment.
    • I'll get back to you when Jordan appears on screen. Lol!
