I've said it before, but Liz and Chole are the best thing that have come out from Griffith and Bell's reign thus far. They need to give her a contract fast (which she said she wanted) and develop the character more. Perhaps, Jill should be some type of mentor to her?

Victor is trying to buy Sabrina's affection in every scene they have together. When he's not doing that, he's trying to dress her up like a doll. If I recall correctly, he grew close with Sabrina when Victoria went back to work and the tack house and he could no longer coo over her coma-ridden body and the baby. That has always bothered me. Because if Adam and Sabrina are replacing Nick and Victoria in his life, and the relationship with the daughter-replacement has become sexualized... that means he's living out some kind of weird wish-fulfillment fantasy with Sabrina! Ick!

Yesterday's Global episode was good, though. Lots of business shenanigans and Paul investigating David. Brad is such a skeeve. BTW, they really should have followed through with Neil & Victoria back in the day. Looks like Adam is cruisin' for a billy-goat bruisin'.

As boring as the show is, I do like the understated-ness of it all. For example, Sharon remembering Cassie today. I think MB is trying her best to show the real Y&R, by acknowledging history, however, her stories are just not fascinating. I think she needs a good creative consultant.

Yeah todays episode was actually good for the most part. There was actually new material instead of recycled conversations again. There finally seems to be some movement in the storylines. I'm hoping we get to see an epic Jabot vs. Newman storyline again.

Friday was also okay. We got to see Gina, more Paul, Adam in trouble, and the most important thing: Victor and Nikki actually shared a civilized conversation. It brought back the great memories... if only they'd realize that they need to quit acting childlike. They aren't children anymore.

It was actually a really good episode today. And I'm not just saying that because I've been defending Y&R on another thread. :lol: I didn't recognize the names of the script-writers -- are they new? Part of Troll LML's gang? <_<

First of all, somebody handed Neil his ball's back! KSJ is so underrated and rarely gets a chance to show what he can do anymore. When he gave Billy-Goat Junior that ass-kicking, I was LMAO. Especially when he threw Junior's HBS education in his face. "That's what they taught me to do at Stanford." If Heather Tom were on the show, I'd be gunning for Neil and Victoria to start an affair.

Danny cannot stop touching Daniel. It really made me laugh. Yeah, Graz is hot!

Sharon Case blew it out of the park. Especially when she lay down near Cassie's gravestone. She didn't overdo it, either. Emmy reel.

And when Victor dismissed Sabrina (get used to it, cherie!) so he could hand Junior's tits on a platter, what the f*ck did he say? She was all "Uh, OK. See you at the office, darling," and EB just growled... something. In French? In German? In Goat Language? I RWed about 4 times and still cannot figure it out.

    • LOL - well, Peter was included in the grandkids' section, each named specifically with their $100K trusts.  It must have been the abs...

        In Henry's will, he said it had to do with Hart having a chance at being a better person than his father, since his father isn't providing for him (I'm paraphrasing here, but it was about Roger).  Still a little surprised...
    • I'm glad the truth is all out regarding Roman and Kate's secrets from each other, and also happy Roman didn't make much of the letter forgery, because why would he even care? They are a good solid couple. However, not to be mean, when Roman had his little flashback at the DiMera mansion he seemed more like an old man that was lost. How wonderfully aggravating that we still don't know what the hell happened with Johnny the night EJ was shot. I can't wait to find out. I've my feelings clear on Paulina, but she was definitely written much more adult and Jackée even seemed a bit toned down, for the better. Nothing boring about either scenes for me. I like the little drama between Xander and Cat, for the newness of the interaction alone. AnnaLynne McCord is much better at material where she's not acting dementedly lovesick. Seeing that side to Cat was integral to remembering she's not a moron, and I am definitely intrigued by the heck could be calling her. Kevin Lambert returning is a cute little surprise. I never watched Chadwick Hopson in the role though, was he any good?

    • I would love if Sarah were already pregnant and then, even with the reveal that she knew about the letter, that she and Xander would work on things to keep their family intact. But I fear that time is running out. Whatever Philip is doing is probably going to mess up everything. I do like that Kayla and Sarah mentioned the Horton legacy with the hospital and that Kayla would much prefer Xander financing it over EJ. Xander is suddenly Horton adjacent. Belle is as usual a massive hypocrite whining about 'everything' Xander has done to her family when EJ raped her sister, kept her cancer ridden toddler from her, helped Nicole keep the baby she had stolen from Sami for a year, shot her dad in the head, and as recently as last year railroaded her innocent teen nephew into prison where he was beaten up. Sure, Xander shot Brady and Marlena but both of them seem to be over it. Cat should have just graciously accepted Xander's apology. I actually like that he treated Felicity like anybody else and did not coddle her. I hope we see him apologizing though. I wonder if Cat knows that Xander shot their granddad Kon dead last year? She might like him better if she knew. I wonder who is calling her? My money is on Gwen for some reason. I feel like Cat and Chad will get comfy and then we will find out Abby is out there and Gwen has had her. EJ and Cat were far more palatable than Chad and Cat, but EJ makes everybody easier to tolerate. Roman and Kate vs Johnny and Paulina... not sure which were more boring. I guess I'll go with Roman and Kate because he speaks so darn slowly now. Philip is entertaining the heck out of me. I hope he ends up the hero who saves Bo. I think it would be hysterical if he managed to get his hands on the Versovix and EJ ends up buying a useless money pit of a hospital.
    • I just start to laugh thinking about the interview where Leslie related its being Tom Donovan who talked her into doing GH & then, once she was settled in & looked around for him, he had JUST vanished!! 
    • We probably would if the writers bothered to write for them... but they've proven unable to write anything for them.  Even though Ashley has potential as a character.   @janea4oldMy theory is that Joey might end up being Ashley's father... but time will tell.
    • But, you have to admit, Dani seems to be, relishing in the fact that she is not the only one in pain, or had a trash husband. That's how it is coming across to me, she is enjoying this too much!
    • I assume not as we would have probably heard, but she could have been a good fit. I could see her being a good Leslie Brooks recast, although by that point the show had fully moved on from Leslie.  I'm not sure who she could have been on B&B, although I could see her playing yet another Beth Logan recast.
