Ugh, in relation to sexual chemistry, the term "bucketloads" just sends my mind in all the wrong places.

I think they are "nice" together in a sweet way. But, no, I don't find them to have chemistry like, say, Adam and Heather or Nick and Phyllis. Even a less impressive couple (like Kevin and Jana or Michael and Lauren...both of which I never personally found that 'chemical') has more chemistry, IMO, than JT and Victoria.

I think for me, the issue is that Luckinbill was once a (good) bad boy (in the sense of snarky a-hole that you wanted to clobber)...and Victoria was once all fire and flame. A tamed Thad and a recast-and-tamed Victoria...honestly...come across much more like Cricket-and-Danny than JT and Victoria. JT and Victoria ought to be the snarly couple that takes no prisoners. THAT would be hot. That would be true (IMO) to their historical characters.

I mean, truly, I thought even CRICKET AND DANNY (during their early married time) had more chemistry than JT and Victoria. I like JT and Victoria a lot -- but for their sweetness, not their chemistry.

Ugh. Let me say more after dmarex...

I don't know what is spoilerish...clearly there is a

going on, so let me address this under spoiler protection.

I couldn't agree more. One of the worst actors ever to hit GC. He only lasted that long because you can't really fail if Heather Tom is carrying you over the threshold each day.

As soon as Cole was evicted from Vickie's orbit his inabilities for anything were just too painful to watch. E.g. Cole & Sharri Shattuck's Ashley were probably as addictive and interesting to watch like Amelia Heinle & Thad Luckinbill. :lol:

Thinking of it: BlandToria, BoreMeToTears and Cole would be probably be so boring the universe would stop turning. It could actually be worth an experiment. LOL!

Okay.. i am not going to discuss this in spoilers tags because... its not a spoiler. its a thought. my mother even asked me if thats the way its going to play out because IMHO its obvious.

This is how i THINK it went down.

Chloe met a boy. Chloe sexed up said boy. Chloe thought this would be perfect to trap cane. Chloe set everything up and had the perfect plan - until the DNA test. Did we see her read the results? because if we did i missed it. They should show it.. and if they did.. they shoulda showen her kinda shocked by it syaing Cane could be the father.

Then suring this prego story they should bring Billy back to town. have Chloe see him and avoid him not wanting him to put two and two together that thats his baby. And not let Chloe know that Billy also comes from money.

but thats just how i would do it. because why would Chloe go after Canes money when she could go after Billy's if she knew he was an Aboott

----------------

also, i need to point that how awesome it was to have Traci's daughter and Danny's son singing together.

True, lol. But, in JEP's defense, it wasn't as if he had a terrific scene-partner in Shattuck. Frankly, I think the only reason she got that role was because she was married to Ronn Moss (Ridge, B&B) at the time. If anyone here enjoyed her as Ashley, I apologize for offending you, but me? To me, she was so awful, she actually made me miss that Epperson chick who was Eileen Davidson's initial successor in the role.

Good scenario, Jack. However, in order for that to work, Billy has to be using an assumed name (and I'm not saying he isn't, only that, for me, that's how this has to work). Otherwise, IMO, Chloe will look mighty stupid for not putting together that Billy Abbott shares the same last name as Jill Abbott and the rest of the Abbott family. (Plus, there's the fact that Chloe basically threw him over for Cane, when really, marriage to and family with Billy could provide a jackpot of its own...unless, of course, Chloe's going after Cane strictly b/c she hates Lily...which is possible.)

Agreed on Heinle and Luckinbill are boring. Any couple who's boring won't have chemistry LOL.

See: Neil/Karen

See: Neil/Carmen

See: Lily/Cane

See: recast Colleen/Adrian

See: diluted JT/ recast Mac- Kimsey

See: Crickett/Paul

See: Raul/Mac

See: Antonia/Jessica (OLTL)

See: Ridge/Taylor (B&B)

See: Nina/Cole

I always wondered why Olivia and Neil were never put together in a long-term thing but now I realize that's because the writers were smart enough to know that they're both incredibly boring. If Tonya Williams came back for a longer stint last year, considering how craptastic the staff was, they probably would be together. :mellow:

MarkH, I completely agree with your post. In a word, genius! And

Now, that scenario intrigues me, lol.

I'm mad, though, that the DNA test results rule out Adam as a possibility. They had Adam and Chloe cross paths twice (that I know of), and both times, neither acknowledged the other. I mean, wouldn't it be ironic if they actually did know each other (but, b/c it was just a booty call, so to speak, they didn't exchange telling glances or anything)? Imagine how that would shake up the Adam/Heather romance, among other things?
