Another great week coming our way, I can just feel it. It's very enjoyable to look forward to watching the show.

I agree. Although I'm a little concerned because some of the current setups seem like exit storylines for newer and promising characters.

I love this cool new "black background Y&R logo" that CBS used in their promos last week.

I am worried because it really does seem they're exit storylines. I'll be very sad if some of those exits come true, but for now I want to enjoy the show as I've been for the past few months.

Indeed, though I still miss the long flowy hair she used to have. :(

I used to call it "Jill's Whore hair." LOL! She worked that look so magnificently. But the new shorter cut makes her look younger and more radiant.

Oh I'm with you, I LOVE "Jill's Whore Hair"...Jess Walton could easily rock that today, I feel it would make her look even younger, can you believe she's hitting the big 6-0 this February?! She easily passes for 50 and could even pass for a 'used up' 45.

The way she's cut her hair for Monday's episode is the shortest it's ever been and it looks MUCH better than the mid-length flipped out style she'd been sporting for the last few years. If Jess insists on keeping her hair shorter (WHY JESS WHY?!) then this is the style to keep it at, the flipped out look is matronly.

Actually, since MAB came aboard the show Jess has been looking particularly better than everyone else. It seems like MAB made a few calls to her pals on Rodeo Drive and got Jill Abbott's wardrobe an update. Really, the cast as a whole is looking more stylish.

I noticed Jill's hair, and love the sophisticated smoothed out hairstyle much better than the choppy mess. I think the wardrobe all around has improved significantly, with the majority looking like the upper class business people they are portraying. Except for Sharon who still looks like she shops at the trailer trash second hand store, but that has always been that characters style.

I found Monday's episode a tad boring. I am so sick to death at the show acting like Neil and Tyra are some kind of soul mates. Especially since they keep emphasizing that she is only 27, and he has to be pushing 50. It isn't Karen that makes the pairing with Neil boring, it is that Neil is such a boring, set in his ways, fuddy duddy of a character. The only reason him and Dru worked well was because they were complete opposites, and Tyra is no Dru. Why can't they pair her with Adam, or Cane, or Billy, or Kevin if they don't want to develop the cute detective into a viable character. Anything but this Daddy and Daughter dynamic they are hoping the audience will bite into and clamour for if they keep shoving it down our throats.

I'm looking forward to seeing Jill.as recently she has been looking quite frumpy,with the layered hair,chunky necklaces and drab clothing.

Gloria is dressing more the way I picture Jill should be looking.

    • On that same note, it's astounding to have mobster Sonny in the same office with Mayor Laura chatting it up about their mutual grandson. Think about the reaction if John Gotti and Mayor Eric Adams had a friendship

      ?? I guess the Logic behind Sonny & Jason acceptance is like when i saw a documentary where FBI agents said they'd rather deal with the mafia than terrorists or cartels---they're the "lesser of 3 evils". Anyway I'm about 30 years late on this convo.
    • Im confused. Does Jessica know anything about June's relation to Tyrell? At the start of the episode, it seemed like June was gonna slip that he was her son but she caught herself but later in the episode she referred to him as "my boy" and Jessica had no reaction like that wasnt a surprise to her No, Anita was putting money in the account every 6 months but we werent told how much was in it when Leslie became a beneficiary. The show has set it up that it was multiplying based off the interest so that its really worth quite alot now. I dont buy it but thats what they've told us
    • What was the point in Lori's return as Mrs. Max Hollister? That little story never made much sense to me.  Were there plans for a permanent return? Or even a new family with her as the matriarch?  
    • I guess it depends on your device.  I can watch CW shows via their website on my Windows PC.
    • Ooooo A Liam episode? I'll watch it later today. They sure are churning the daily episodes out early.

    • Welcome back, Shawn Douglas! It's been a while. It really is too bad that the writers don't really have an interest in the character because there are still a lot of ways that he can be used effectively on the canvas. He should have been a part of the 60th anniversary celebrations as well. If anything, just to represent Bo and Hope. And I'd much rather see Jada paired with him than possibly with Theo. But I enjoyed him getting caught up with Belle, and comforting her. I'm sure they'll find their way back to each other at some point but I do like them as divorced friends. I just hope we see it play out onscreen. Belle being a dick about Sami again was unnecessary though. And we finally saw Liam again!  I'm curious to see how this storyline is going to play out, and who's going to be weaved into it. He and Abe do work well together too. And we learned that he has a kid. Hopefully, we'll learn more about his character in the future. But I'm not really sure about Johnny and Chanel suddenly having problems with raising Trey. They've wanted a baby for so long, so I don't understand why this is even an issue. They should know by now what it's like to raise a baby. But I did enjoy Johnny's scenes with EJ, and that Johnny still hasn't refused to forgive him. This storyline was/is very clunky, but having the two of them be at odds is the right decision. There's so much story potential that can be drawn from that. As for Chad... there was no time for us to see his reunion with Will, but there's time for us to see him talking BS with Leo? I don't get it. And I don't get all this random dating app stuff either. Leo and Javi were boring af too. If we're forced to endure them, can they at least have some real conflict? The two of them losing the baby was the perfect opportunity for it.
