Abby being a minor is a major issue. She could only give someone her proxy; here comes in what Y&R did: Colleen was named representative of Abby's trust and therefore would control any money/shares left by Brad for Abby resulting in Colleen having full control over everything that was Brad's. Of course you can't inherit a job - like being a board-member - but that's another issue. I won't quibble over the writer's answer that "it's in the Newman by-laws". Ludicrous, but hey, it's a soap after all; a well-written one but still.

I'm not going to go so far as to say she rocked it, but it was nice watching her put Ashley in her place. Good for her for telling Ash that if she's so worried about this feud, then she should go talk to Victor. Ashley is so blind where Victor is concerned it's ridiculous. It's making me dislike her character more than ever. Did you notice that all she did in her scenes with Victor about this was shake her head? I mean, seriously, it's as though she was saying "Oh well, Victor will be Victor. And he's SO cute." :rolleyes:

Can anybody tell me if the state of Wisconsin has a law stating that if you're married to a pregnant woman, you're automatically declared the baby's father? Who the hell is this attorney giving Cane advice anyway?

Jill had even more zingers today. LOVE her referring to Chloe as trash. Ladies and gentleman, Jill Abbott is back and is as fierce as ever. Jess Walton has amazing presence.

And is Sharon bonkers throwing those books into her bag? What was she thinking? But I LOVED her annoyance at Jack's phone call- he's as pathetic as sis Ashley is with Victor, where Sharon is concerned. NuEden is slowly getting a bit better. Don't like her yet, but she's improving.

Cane is driving me absolutely nuts lately, and I've sort of liked the character for a while now. I understand his connection to the baby, but he's taking everything so far. I didn't enjoy his little monologue about talking to the baby while Chloe was pregnant and how the baby recognizes his voice. PUH-LEEZE! The only thing I did like that he said was that Chloe would roll her eyes while he was doing it.

As other posters, I would like to say that I don't have anything against Cane feeling hurt for what Chloe did to him. He does have the right to be mad and to do silly things while trying to get his life on track. The thing that does bother me (aside from Goddard's portrayal overall) is Cane pretending to be above everyone, the only man that knows how to do everything right. If this is a way to get Cane to show his dark side than I'm fine, otherwise it won't be good.

And Chloe should definitely show remorse for what she did. At least for a few seconds.

Why do you don't want it to happen? Because you don't want her to be there "for years"? Or simply because you don't want to see the character show remorse?

I believe the writers want us to think that those scenes where she confesses that she was reckless with the cream were remorse. Whenever she starts crying and breaking down, that is probably what remorse is suppose to be. But it lasts a second.

Victor's going to eat Colleen alive! I have sympathy for her, but I would have preferred the character leave and come back abit older and more prepared to take on VN. I'm suggesting the actress isn't capable.

And after yesterday, I'm loving Gloria!!! I was ready to cry with her when it was revealed she's not a killer.

    • I find Missy Reeve's views offensive and I don't want to defend her, but I don't think she ever said anything publicly about Days "gay content".   In fact, I don't think she's ever said anything negative about Days at all.  There's no indication Missy is difficult or unprofessional on set-except for the whole affair thing years ago lol-but that's a whole different topic. I can dislike Missy as a person and still think she's the perfect fit for Jen.  Cady tried and it didn't work for me.  Whenever Missy steps into the role it works.  It's a two things can be true situation.  Missy has some bad opinions, but she's great at playing Jennifer.
    • Doesn't the funeral go into Tuesday 
    • Christian Streaty wrote her second freelance script today on Days. Surprised they gave the first funeral episode to a newbie.  
    • And the third thing, which I have no cite for, and I may look to see if one is findable, but supposedly she said that the show had too much gay content in it. And, to be fair, that could be someone making a criticism about balance & not be bigotry but when it's added to the other, that's why it bugs people.

      The greatest tv series season finale in history.   
    • Mick Savage was sooo unbearable. And more unbearable was the reaction from the female characters to him - they were acting like he is God's gift to women and sooo irresistible. To a point of unbelievable cringe. 
    • Today was a short one. Only 33 minutes.  The ‘Part One’ graphic at the beginning was pretty interesting though. I didn’t expect them to do something like that.  I like how everything was focused around John and his family and friends. Again, the acting and the dialogue was very well done and well written. And I love that they were able to incorporate Drake’s, “swing for the fences” phrase into the script. It was nice seeing everyone interact with each other, especially characters who don’t often share scenes together. It felt like every character was part of a big family or community. Plus, an outdoor funeral in June makes a lot more sense than an outdoor funeral in December.  But yeah, it’s very, very strange that Will isn’t at the funeral, especially since we know that

      I would much rather he had been there today. And, where’s Anna too? And Jack and Jennifer? What was the point of bringing them all back if they weren’t going to attend the funeral? I expected Steve to want to close down BlackPatch, though I’d rather he just retire and let Paul take it over. But I like that Kayla was there to comfort him. I wonder if he’s going to change his mind at some point.  It was nice seeing Shane again too. Now, he just needs to have more scenes with his son lol but I enjoyed seeing him comfort Marlena. I’m not really sure about his interaction with Cat though? Was it really necessary for this to happen now, at John’s funeral? They could’ve waited a little longer to introduce this story arc.  Btw, was Tate bleeding from his head in his first scene with Arianna? 
    • This is the coldest early June in my life. It's like it's January.
