Lily the girl who rejected him not once but TWICE?

Remember that?

Billy still cares for Lily but he's doing that woman to numb the pain of losing her to Cane (of all people).

Makes perfect sense to me. I dunno what you're expecting but most people don't hang around waiting for the one they love to finally love them back....and the way they're characterizing Billy I for one wouldn't expect him to join a monastery and take a vow of celibacy until Lily returns to him.

Okay, you scared me for a minute. I don't want the gurl to die (however, if she does okay I can live with that) if she goes mad that would be a great punishment. Losing Billy to Lily would be the perfect punishment. Talk about the irony of that moment. She ruins Lily relationship with Cane by lying only to see the man she actually loves, fall in love with the woman's life she ruin. Oh my I think I can write for Y&R now. :lol:

Amber=Phyllis. I don't know about that one. I think a pairing of Kate and Amber would definitely work for me. They have chemistry that is for sure.

I'm not a fan of Noah I don't like the way he speaks to his parents. And I don't like Eden at all. I'm hoping Abbby makes her life a living you know what!

Red! Red! You came back! :D

Billy sexin' up Sharon only tells me one thing, he is not interested in Kate. Thank God! I hope Kate walks in on them during there ta-to-ta.

If you can't be with the one you love honey, love the one your with.

The show is on fire. Every story is clicking for me. The ratings are up and I have a feeling the ratings will increase even more. Only time will tell. But I am loving Y&R right now. I can't say that about any other soap on the air right now.

With the exception of Karen/Neil/Tyra ITA. Everything is just flowing together so well.

I didn't even mention Victor in yesterday's episode but WOW! I loved his scenes with Billy. You could see and feel the regret he had when it comes to Adam and his current predicament. The wisdom he gave to Billy was very heartfelt and I think it's great that he and Billy get along...for now.

And then that last scene with that woman. I've officially decided that I am not going to look up any spoilers regarding her. I want it to be a complete surprised. Did she have bandages on the last time they showed her? I don't think so but I'm not entirely sure. Anyways the drama is just so exciting right now and the suspense is killing me. I just want to know what Victor has planned right now. Will it hurt Colleen or Jack?

I hope Y&R gets up to 4.5. I know I'm dreaming but it's hard to not dream when the show seems to be ON FIRE (literally) every single day of the week and it's been going on for weeks now.

As a perennial voice of ratings doom ("it's the decline trajectory!"), I think Y&R could hit 4.5. It hit 4.1 one day last week, so 4.5 is actually in spitting distance. It depends on the trifecta of consistently excellent writing, commitment to spending a bit of $ on promotion ("Phillip happens here"), and creating a bit of a buzzworthy tale (Sudden Impact, Kay's funeral).

I won't deny that I'm a bit worried about the price they're paying for higher ratings (at this point, the campy Radisson story is simply silly, but I have confidence it will end soon)...too much of this sensationalistic stuff, and the show loses its heart. But, except for Tyra, this show is as strong as it has been in a long time.

Maybe the masked woman is Britney. Maybe she needs a new face to escape the mob.

And Billy does not love Lily, he just likes sticking it to Cane. A relationship will not last on a soap when only one person is carrying the whole thing!!

I can't wait to see this tomorrow! Billy is such a man whore and I'm loving every scene of it. Poor Chloe in today's US episode where he tells her he wants to be FWB! I have to wonder if after Billy found out that he and Mac were cousins, if this isn't what made him the way he is.

I got a little chuckle today when Noah and Eden were caught kissing at his birthday party and Phyllis whispered to Nick "Yep, he's your son". And we all know that Phyllis won't be able to keep to herself with seeing Sharon today.

That's a name that's not been thrown out there. Hmm!

The consistent writing seems to be there so far. Promotion is also a way but not like GL's. GL Phillip Happens Here is just awful! The buzz will come from viewers liking what they see and staying and telling others how good Y&R is again.

The Radisson story is campy. But I have seen much worse on all the others soaps. I like the Radisson story and it brings in so many vets back into the fold.

In the words of Smokey Robinson, "I second that emotion." Let see, Billy freely told Lily about his one-night stands with Kate. He told the "truth" about Kate's child sharing his DNA because Lily told him too. Then after all was said and done, he told that his heart was with her.

Yup, you are right, I chose to believe otherwise too.

    • 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 wonderful! Thank you for posting this! I loved the first two seasons and never got to see the final season when they cancelled the DVD release. I've been hoping this popped up on streaming but no luck. Happy I'll finally get to see how it ended!

    • In case it is of interest to anyone here, I have digital copies (computer files, mp4 etc.) of all of the episodes. And, besides having the files they are all up on my usual video hosting site, acct name: shallotpeel, channel it is in: Primetime Soaps and file names like  Flamingo Road S1E15 Hurricane Flamingo Road was a primetime soap on NBC by Lorimar Productions. 2 seasons. 1980-1982.

    • Arguably DAYS OF OUR LIVES has been brilliant lately & definitely was last week. But, here I am with nitpick & technicalities. This was the only misstep but it was just a stupid thing that should have been caught. Deidre Hall as Marlena has this one problematic line, "It didn't matter how many identities you had, I always knew exactly who you were, you were the man who saved my life." - Marlena, DAYS, 6-2-25 Unfortunately the flashback closest to it was when Marlena was on the phone, terrified because she thought he was Stefano. Yes, it's true that the line is not accurate. There were many times when she did not feel the way she is claiming because of whatever was going on in story with his 'retconned to hell & back' identity & origin story. Does it keep the whole week from being called excellent? Nope.

      Newsom is a craven opportunist, but his comments today were exactly how better people need to handle Trump.
