There. Is that better Sylph? Not that this in anyway diminishes my love for TSJ. (Damn it didn't change, although I changed it in my settings. I'll work on it)

Isn't your new avatar Greg Rikaart?

Yes, but that's not what I see. I still see TSJ. <_< Maybe someone is gaslighting me? :lol:

ETS: Now it's there.

This was the first show that I thought Mac's/CF's weave actually looked good. It wasn't as poofy or something, and it complemented her face. And she actually showed another emotion other than boredom. Finally!

Adam's revenge/Ashley's "haunting" is one of my favorite stories on the show. I don't see how it was "supposed to be a story for Sabrina" but whatever. I like it. Especially today - looks like Adam is growing some balls made of steel. I say, more power to ya, Jr! [!@#$%^&*]'em all up. I want to see Victor waking up the next day after realizing what his son has done lookin like he was rode hard and put away wet. He deserves it.

If TPTB plan on killing off Adam after this latest caper, they're crazy. That would piss me off so much.

I still want my tele-novela (Aye Dios Mio No me terminado, por favor Senor Newman. No me gusta!!!!!!)

*Rafe, enraged, shoots Victor through the living-room window.*

Estella: No, Rafael! Ay de mi!

And she actually showed another emotion other than boredom.

Yeah, constipation.

I thought Adam was caught for sure when that tape surfaced. I just can't believe that Victor isn't at least more suspicious of him. I think we are in for some powerful scenes when the truth does come out. Victor annoys me, but he gives a smackdown like no other.

Or, they could have undone Cane-is-Phillip w/o bringing back you-know-who or mentioning the Latham scene at all. It wouldn't be the first time, after all, that Y&R brought up something, only to drop it. Remember the whole business about Brad-as-George, and how it contradicted a scene where Brad had met his mother in a diner back in '85? IIRC, Bill Bell told DD shortly afterward that they weren't doing anything with the diner scene, and just to forget it.

Sure, but I personally was ALWAYS unsatisfied by that diner scene. That always felt like something unfinished...a started sentence. So, when they started to backfill in the past, I was really happy...long-term viewers often wondered about that scene.

So it was with Cane. I could attribute that scene to "regime change" and forget about it, but it is so much more satisfying to have it addressed.

As for resurrecting P3...I could have lived without that...but I'm deeply intrigued to see how they pull it off.

Victor held Michael Scott (name?) prisoner in his basement, because Michael was having an affair with Victor's then-wife, Julia; and if I'm not mistaken, not only did he have a video camera installed, so that Michael would be "forced" to watch him and Julia have sex; but when Julia discovered what Victor had done, she miscarried her baby in a fall.

This is all correctly remembered. And yes, Nicholas Benedict played "Michael Scott" long before The Office.

A-ha! Interesting parrellels. It sort of bothers me that CE still sort of plays Adam as a frat-boy wasp. I see now why there was all the talk of re-casting him before. Tom Pelphry would have been SO awesome in this role. But CE is doing a good job, nonetheless, i just want more evil if he is indeed going evil. That "evil" laugh he gave after making that call to Heather a few weeks was weak. MJ though, that girl can cackle!

No, I prefer Engen. Engen looks like a handsome, cornfed midwestern boy. "All-American", as they used to say. That under such a bland and unthreatening exterior should lurk a monster is far more...discomfiting.

It's not really about Estella for me. Nearly everyone can relate to how frustrating it is to be accused of something you haven't done. Then you have this working class woman who is unjustly caught in a war between the big boys. She's got this billionaire bully giving her "warnings". You can see how distraught she was at being accused of such an ugly thing and for me it pulls on the heart strings a bit. And it makes me want to slug Victor because I don't believe he'll apologize when he finds out the truth.

"BAM!"

Well, if anyone will make one of Greg R. for me, I'll gladly change it. B)

Lemme know if you want him with pecs-exposed or fully dressed :)

Totally agree. Except Braeden won't allow the latter part. He just won't.

Don't you think they have FINALLY learned about these bloody deaths? If there isn't a moratorium on 'em, I'll think them stupid. Prison, insane asylums, leaving town to get your "head together", disappearances, all work. Death is not needed.

What was that 1985 scene about? I have never heard anything about it. Can someone please fill me in?

You mean Brad's?

  • Member
Yes, the one with Brad and his mother, or something like that.

It was an odd scene. Brad, by now, had been integrated into the Abbott group. I dont' think he and Traci were married yet. In fact, I want to say that this was shortly before his wedding to Traci.

Anyway, one day he goes to a diner (one we'd seen before, if infrequently). And he meets with a woman, whom we believe to be his mother. I remember seeing the back of her head...I don't know if we saw her face.

And, in my recollection, they talked about some troubles with his father...like "Dad can't know" or something...but that is hazy.

Before they take leave, Brad gives her a bunch of money.

Then, when Brad and Traci get married, he says he has no family to invite.

The diner scene itself all happened within the span of a single episode, and was never referenced again.
