GREAT ending! The little actress who played Ana broke my heart at the end of today's episode. She is more than just a singing prop, and I hope TPTB work on her dramatic talents some more, because she can shape up to be an amazing versatile actress. And once again, Esther/Kate Linder stole those Chancellor scenes! I want Katherine to stay dead for awhile longer lol.

Today's episode was great. It was a good classic family soap episode. Most of the plots didn't really advance, but you need that when you do family-centered holiday episodes. I thought it was really smart of them to amp of the Tyra/Ana storyline, which is the one story that had been pretty dull when compared to the others.

Again a great ensemble piece with many great interactions. Y&R is a true example of a soap that's best when it goes back to basics.

I loved Esther today and she finally looked classy. Esther telling Jill that she just fired herself was too funny!! I loved every minute of today's episode and the Winter's family storyline just went up a few notches to finally make them interesting. I really felt for Ana an.d Devon since he'd already been through that

I am loving me some Nikki and Paul!

I have never given a damn about couples on soaps. I have always been about the intrigue and drama-

But I am loving these two together and I hope it continues. Melody was friggin adorable.

And I love Victor and Ashley as a couple.

The show has made such excellent choices and the show is benefiting greatly.

Jill and Esther were hilarious, I loved Esther firing herself. LOL!

Jack visiting Victor in prison was classic.

Nikki and Paul are in that "cute" phase.

LOL! at Katherine working at the diner. I LOVE it whenever they bring out that diner set, and I hope they use it after this storyline wraps. I know it was used a few months ago for the River storyline, and it was used in 2005 when Daniel and Lily were on the run. but is this the same diner set that was used during the original Katherine/Marge storyline?

i LOVE Murphy! He's my new favorite character on Y&R. And Paul and Nikki...awwwwwww! I love that Victor and Nikki have found good enough mates so we won't be checking the clock to see when Victor and Nikki are going to get back together. In fact, I wouldn't mind if they stayed apart for a long while.

After watching Jill today, it occured that Jill would make the perfect lesbian. She's such a battleaxe that to see her with some petite, sweet almost Sabrina-like lady would be very interesting to see. I don't think it would be a stretch to believe that after all her hearbreak and experience with men that she couldn't fall in love with a woman. Y&R wouldn't do it but I think it would be a terrific s/l.

    • Full statement from city of Glendale https://www.glendaleca.gov/Home/Components/News/News/9293/16
    • Has anyone ever totted up how many women on GL slept with both father and son(s)? Reva gets a lot of crap for it but she's far from the only one: Claire Beth Blake Olivia Dina Did I miss anyone?  Also, did Reva ever sleep with Phillip? They always had some "closeness" thing, but I don't know if they ever actually did the deed. If they did, then Reva's the clear winner, with TWO families covered, lol!  
    • I think Long was probably planning to have Claire suffer from Post Partum, but she left the writing staff shortly after Claire had Michelle so that element didn't get explored. And I always assumed that when Claire returned in the late 90s/early 00s.. that she was realizing that she messed up by not staying a part of Michelle's life and became resentful/bitter over her previous choices.  That was my theory.  
    • Jenn was a huge part of the success of Days back in the day, and that contribution shouldn't be dismissed.  With that said, I do think her and Jack's time on the show should remain as occasional visits/drop ins. When Missy returns to play Jenn, Jenn is back to being Jenn.   Jenn in her glory days was head strong, fiesty, and was a live wire.... and her scenes with Jack on Friday was classic Jenn with Jack being the voice of reason.   It was the foundation of their relationship back in the day.    
    • Claire was always tightly wound, I think what Long was going to do is to throw the three into this impossible situation with no bad guys, Mo, knowing how to take care of kids from growing up but unable to conceive and Claire, who didnt know how to take care of kids and was totally focused on her career, gets knocked up.  Ryder took Claire off the deep end as a convenient way to make story for characters he wasnt interested in (though Pratt blames McTavish) with little effort. It was later explained to be a brain tumor (though why was she a bitch again when she returned?) \ Claire did sleep with Rick, she was his first!
    • I'm sorry, truly I am, but this literally made me LOL. Tempting fate, much?

    • Oh, I have very little doubt that Missy feels some way personally and privately.  Donna was just saying she actively spoke out against Days in public in reference to the gay storylines, which she did not. I don't have super strong feeling about Jen one way or another.  She was always a side character to me.  I still think Missy is Jen regardless of her stupid beliefs.
    • I hated the swap-over; Clayton Norcross, to me, was far superior in the role of Thorne than Jeff Trachta ever was. And the recast left me disliking Thorne when he was the superior son to me. As for Teri Ann Linn, I feel like she got the raw deal. Kristen was very clear as a forefronting character, especially in her rivalry with Stephanie, and it feels like she was dropped off for Felicia, and they never returned it. Not to mention the subpar recast with Tracy Melchior in 2001. Someone like Brenda Epperson (ex-Ashley, Y&R) would've been more suited for that role.
    • I just remember when Leo was marrying Craig (?), Greg Rikaart stated a line and made direct eye-contact with Melissa Reeves, and when the camera cut to her, she looked away.

       Rikaart had a mission that day, and he succeeded.
