If Lily and Cane need a baby they can have their own. Lily has looked at that baby from the get go like something she picked up on the bottom of her shoe in a no leash dog park. Why does she even want that baby, other than to do everything Cane's way, and for some twisted sense of revenge on Chloe and Billy.

If Lame's fans want them to have a baby so bad they can give them one of their own, I'm sure CK and DG would really appreciate the effort ;).

Mr hypocrite Cane baiting Billy to punch him so he could file a police report was ironic since last week Cane was the one who punched Billy.

I don't like Lame. I loved Chloe's comment that Cane is an Australian sleeping pill. However even as a Chloe fan I have to admit that Lily won the argument and got in the better digs.

exactly--if Lily is suppose to be this amazing loving character,why have her want to take care of a baby she pretty much hates?

And as much as I love the Y&R writing staff, given Lily's history with knowing who your daddy is, I don't see why she would take part in raising the kid. Big miss for the character in the want to pimp Lame.

I love Jana and Kevin, but the turmoil for their has been the best--they were getting boring.

I thought I made it clear in my post that I didn't watch it AT ALL, nor do I have any desire to. My comments were based on what my family and friends in both fanbases told me in talking to me. So my statement was not inaccurate since it was based on THEIR opinions.

And as for why I commented on it...that's what a message board is for, no? To state your thoughts on a show. I stated the thoughts of people that spoke to me about what they saw and perceived yesterday. Nothing more, nothing less.

Wouldn't Lame be much more interesting if she straight out told him that she doesn't want to play mother to that baby? Then they could argue and fight and he could either choose to go forward, or not, but he would know what is at stake. As it is, why do couples not address any of their problems but instead just go off and screw someone else? While I find MAB has been a big improvement to the Y&R, there still leaves a lot to be desired with all the bed hopping and the women always deferring to their man.

Too bad this board doesn't have a limit on how many topics one can start in a day!!

OK. So I just caught Monday's episode so I'm a day behind. But these are my impressions -

I'm glad the kidnapping phase of Katherine's story is apparently over. I was really enjoying the story before that (I didn't HATE the kidnapping, I just thought it took some wind out of the sails of the story) and now with Kat apparently not recognizing Murphy and the diner gang, it should be picking up more steam.

Emily O'Brien is amazing. She can do comedy very well, and today with Kevin missing gave her something else to play. And I completely enjoyed it. WOW. IMO, she's one to watch of the younger generation.

Greg Rikkart is amazing as well. Another reason to watch the show. One of the best things to come of the kidnapping is (hopefully) a good story for him.

I am loving Sharon's descent into darkness. I think Sharon Case is doing an excellent job with every nuance of this story.

What I'm loving is that (for the most part) it seems that every story that is apparently ending (Brad's death, Kay's kidnapping), the writers are using that to propel new stories (Sharon, Kevin) and it's great. Almost feels like ole time soap opera to me.

PS - I'm not a Phick fan, but that shower scene was incredibly hot!

    • Today reminded me as to why I’m a little disappointed in the name that the new Pope chose

      Luckily, EJ and Johnny, and pretty much every other character saved today’s episode.  I didn’t expect Javi to be the one to save Sarah though, and I don’t mind it at all, because if it means that Javi is finally going to get his own identity/character, away from his douchy bf, I’m all for it. Javi’s scenes would’ve been a lot better had it not been for him. EJ and Johnny were the best part of today. Their conversation hit a lot of important beats and I’m so looking forward to seeing them play out. And now that EJ knows that Johnny is going to work for Xander, that opens up another dynamic to their storyline and to the Kiriakis family storylines as well. Tying them all together could be really good. There are so many story possibilities that can come out of this. And I thought Carson Boatman did a pretty good job again too.  I also liked that Johnny was there to comfort Chanel after everything that happened with Sarah. They’re so good together. But I do have mixed feelings about Chanel possibly forgiving Johnny so quickly. Hopefully, the question that she asked him at the end of today leads to more conflict for the two of them.  And yeah, still no changes in Alex’s character lol 
    • Awesome, thanks so much for taking the time to grab the episode. I had a quick review of your rip because I was curious why it was 700MB and 30 minutes. The first 10 minutes of the episode is 3169 (opening credits at 5 minutes and again at 15 minutes). The full HD version of ep.3170 is on YouTube channel:

    • I imagine Brad will blow through all the money in a year and come crawling back, just as Portia warned him not to.

    • That's a name I haven't heard in a minute. Thanks! 
    • Well, since I'm still up unexpected past my growing-into-it bedtime. lol.   I finally got to rewatch Monday's. I even rewatched Friday's to take it all in. Now that we got the reveal and hit the climax of the SilkPress Sheila storyline, now we get to watch the aftermath and/or turns that come with its climax. So far, so good. Friday left us with three cliffhangers. And what I found surprising was how I felt about them over a rewatch.    I know some of you all felt a way about the dialogue during Kat vs Eva. I remember liking it more the first time around and it was nice for them to have these scenes to establish more of a frenemy vibe for them going forward. That still held up. But I found myself agreeing with you all about that dialogue. lol. Still, it was nice to have both of their POVs.   Second up was Silk Press Sheila vs the Duprees. And I was happy to get a brief spat with Dani in there. But the rest standouts for me was Anita and Martin. Haters can hate and given the tail end of the episode, I will agree to a fault, but Brandon has impressed and he was on fire on Monday and had great subtle work on Friday. And that subtle work made it all the better. Like I believe I said when I was watching...BC has a much better grip on his character and seems to be realizing what his tics are so has started to be able to know when to turn it up and when to dial it down. And for the most part (emphasis on most), he got that. Meanwhile, TT was giving fierceness, and I was here for every minute of it. Her reading SilkPress. Her being quip about it. Her 'BE STILL.' Ooooo she had a chokehold on me as Anita gave what I was expecting her to SilkPress. WORTH THE WAIT. I also loved Vernon's CHOOSE SILENCE. I wonder though if SilkPress will figure out Martin's condition from her observing Anita and Vernon with him.   And speaking of worth it...Oooo YES Nicole vs Ted was worth totally worth it. Oooooo I knew DD would nail it, and it was all so well done. The fight between the part of Nicole who is a therapist vs Nicole as a woman who wants to express how she feels. And being so angry. And how there would be moments when it would shoot out of her. And how she would restrain herself. But how she felt she should not be restrain. Just the levels of processing and layers. And DD played it all so well. I do wish Maurice gave just a little bit more, but overall, I thought he did a good job even if it was just Ted coming across as a deadbeat and not at all redeemable. And Kat being there for her mother was so beautiful.   Minority, but I love the montage though yes, it did run a little long. Given how the Duprees like to bond (and also as I mentioned from my own very recent family experiences), it did not seem out of place to me.     That said...let's see how the aftermath worked in today's episode. Overall. Cuz RC can be hit or miss. 
    • I wonder whose brilliant (

      ) idea it was to do an almost complete rip-off of the "who killed Tom King"-storyline. That's some quality style writing right there.....  
    • The show is done. It got canceled at the end of January. https://www.soapoperanetwork.com/2025/02/fox-first-run-cancels-dish-nation-person-place-or-thing-pictionary-759232
