I think he's going to be someone I love to hate. For me, he's dislikable in a fun sort of way. I love the way he keeps sticking it to Sabrina with his snarky gold digger comments. I want to see him get close to Vikki and Nick some day though.

Is Alistar REALLY gone? Please Lord tell me its true! I did kind of like his stupid declaration of Gloria in the boutique though. The more I see of Tracey Bregman, the more I say this lady needs a storyline. Everyone knows Jill can lay it down, but Lauren can cut a bitch too!

AMEN! Although Jess Walton has been *fantastic* with the material she's been given...it's the long hair that really amped up the va va voom bitch in heels Jill Abbott that I know and love. Jess is amazing, Y&R's most untapped resource, effortlessly magical. I'm in love (again). Welcome back Jill Abbott, it's been years!

I have found the last two weeks to be an improvement on where things were last month. The show is still without an umbrella storyline...but I'm noticing movement in terms of Nikki/David, Victor/Sabrina, Kay/Jill, Brad ruining David which is a story I'm crazy about, Paul pining for Nikki (again, a slam dunk if there ever was one) and what I'm hoping is the END of Gloria Fisher Abbott Bardwell...there are false notes however. Jack and Sharon and Phyllis and Nick are all lifeless. Restless Style is an unmitigated flop and I just don't buy the tension (or lack thereof) at all. Sad if the kid who plays Noah has been axed, a SORASed kid is not what Y&R needs. Cane, Lily, Devon all suck. Amber, Daniel, Kevin and Jana are lukewarm. I am hoping that Sheffer will focus MAB's storylines and get an umbrella in the works.

This week has been ultra-dull so far.

Love seeing so much of Jill - the outfits, the outragenous, the amazement of Jess Walton in action.

But the rest is so booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooring, Glo & Lauren at the Boutique are the second most exciting thing these couple of days - this says a lot. I want intrigue, backstabbing...

I'd love to see it happen. It's sad that we need to rely on Gloria to finally get some good storyline these days... but I'd like for her to finally face her crime. Yet, for some unknown reason, I have a feeling it won't happen. I've been expecting it for a looong time. However, I read one spoiler for the upcoming month and that's the reason why I doubt she'll be behind bars.

Victor and Sabrina are so gag worthy. I hardly ever FF anything on Y&R, but those two are just unbearable. Please, someone make it STOP!!

I'm shocked to find myself liking Adam and Heather. I feared Heather would never spark with anyone, but she and Adam are pretty good together.

Restless Style isn't really working for me either. I want Jack back at Jabot, but I guess it's going to be a long time before that happens.

We got a short scene (less than a minute) with Adam, Heather and Paul... they got less airtime than those shoppers at Lauren's boo-tique (why can't she just say boutique). Did you also notice how hard Sabrina's "I'd" sound?

I don't FF anything either, but I'm always tempted. Restless Style had a lot of potential, but it's always the same thing. Cover this, cover that, budget, bla, bla, bla, Katy Perry, Nick/Jack fight, Sharon/Phyllis fight... and then the next episode again... nothing interesting. I'd be, however, interested to see the downfall of Restless Style. But, considering Maria's love for art and fashion, Restless Style is there to stay.

      I saw this earlier and had to piggyback to it.   I mentioned before how they love to give characters shades of grey on this show which I love. And with Dani, they have always shifted her between protagonist and antagonist since Week 1. Having good nice moments...and then her over-the-top moments. I still holler every time I see a gif of her mugshot-turn-photoshoot. It's why she's so divisive in my opinion. Just look at this board. Dani actually been background for a month and a half now and people still feel a way just looking at her. Just wait until she's truly back in an A story.

          In any case, when we do see Dani...she's not doing anything over-the-top or crazy. She really hasn't done anything but sex up Andre which is scandalous while slowly catching feelings...but is quite C plot really. She's trying to start her business. Again...C plot for now. She's being there for family members. Nothing crazy, but a litttle too nice for a livewire such as herself as established in Week 1 and when she broke into Bill and Hayley's house so it's about time for the writers to put her back in that 'annoying' over-the-top way. I don't like it myself, but she is overdue one of her shifts the writers do with her so it is not surprising.

      -- Laura to Sonny: "I will always love and respect you." GAG ME. This stuff doesn't lead me to respect Sonny more, but to respecting Laura less. -- Carly being brought into the Gio/Brook Lynn story by Lulu. GAG ME. Why does Carly have to be a part of every damn story on this show?

      This episode was probably the most we've ever seen of Jan.. and it took long enough. The phone conversation between Jan/Ashley also shed light on their backstory.. and I think it explains why Ashley seems to live in a dreamworld and why she's having difficulties with living with Derek.  Derek could be doing everything right and Ashley would still have a problem because she was an only child, didn't see her mother model positive male/female interactions, and sounds as if she was alone a lot of the time. Nicole is modeling healthy human behavior and she would be smart not to listen to Dani's advice... well intentioned as it is. Eva is the character you root for because she's suffering the consequences of her actions.  And if I were Eva, I wouldn't want to be part of the Dupree world.   I'm hoping the Doug/Joey scenes today is signaling that we're finally moving to the next stage of this story... Doug either asking Vanessa for the money, or letting Joey have dibs on Vanessa's business books, etc.   And Joey finally showing his true colors makes me think we might be approaching that next stage of this story.

      Lord have mercy!!! Not SilkPress vs Eva at Oprhany Gene for everyone to see!!!! Though I loved Vernon shading SilkPress. I continue to love all this fallout.   Is THAT Joey's endgame?

      WAIT!!?  You don't want to know CM's workout secrets?  And a recap of his insta feed?  What's wrong with you?   Anyhow, today's show had good character moments.  I feel like Sonny/Laura brought it down.  I really like Tracey and Jason scenes so I think I am a weirdo.  Carly/Lulu were actually pretty good as well, but Carly's dress was some sort of bondage/leather type situation?  It was a strange wardrobe choice lol.

      Yeah, I don't really love Felicity being used to push the Chad/Cat agenda.  I don't get the question on Xander's behavior either.  He was wrong and offensive. I like Xander.  I think Paul Telfer is great.  If Marlena did the same thing I would say she's wrong too.  Characters are imperfect and that's fine.
