So, I'm hoping we get to see some excitement with Rafe/Adam this week, and of course, waiting with baited breath for the next installement of Kay/Jill/Nina. I think there should be alot of buildup this week, I bet we'll have one hell of a Friday cliffhanger.

I won't spoil it here, but yeah - the build to the holiday weekend next week is a great one. Cliffhangers all around. I'm really looking forward to seeing how this week turns out in both the Summer/Quad/MJ story, and the Nina/Cane/Jill/Kay/Phillip story.

Ok, almost time for the new week of Y&R and I'm still grossed out by what they showed on Friday.

No, not Adam hitting on Rafe--that's no big deal. I'm talking about Mary Jane being so willing to eat something she dug out of the trash. God only knows what else was thrown away in there. After all, we've seen what goes on in those offices at night...

LOL.

Harming a child is pretty much the kiss of death on soaps. So I am worried about the baby-killer (Adam) and child-poisoner (Mary Jane). The child-burner (Gloria) never was able to claw her way back into the hearts of most of the viewership either....nor was her pedophile son (Kevin).

Your'e tellin me! Your'e the first I've seen mention it, but that was on my mind, too! She's just NASTY. Who knows what's been in that trash, I guess there won't be any used condoms, since Nick never seems to use any. But you never know... I was totally grossed out, too.

MY EYES!! MY EYES!!!

I am still a few episodes behind, but I am slowly catching up. I will be sad to see Engen go. But I am still looking forward to Adam storyline. But currently my favorite storyline is Jill/Kay/Nina/Philip III! LOVE IT so far and judging by the spoilers, I will continue to enjoy it.

Hopefully this week is a good one!

So, Adam

I don't know if I'm disgusted by this, or excited because, if you look at it from the "scheming straight man" perspective, Adam's actions seem like what one would do. Not that there's much realism in this whole storyline :lol:

There is a lot to look forward to this week IMO.

The "new" Adam (MM's version) and his machinations are very must-see for me, regardless of how the story is being told over-all. This manipulation of Rafe to protect his ass will, I believe, come back to haunt him. Whose to say that Rafe isn't on to what Adam is doing? There must be someone that Adam's game plan that has his number, besides Nikki (who planted the seed of doubt in Rafe in the first place).

Nina/TC as been great in the Phillip story so I hope to see more of that this week. It was kinda backburnered during the latter part of last week, so I'm looking forward to seeing more of that. And I'll get to see "Coop" again when Phil IV arrives. I'm a little leary of what the spoilers are saying for the reasons for his running off, though. Kinda hoping that some of them aren't true, but if it does turn out that's the reason for his leaving GC, I'll roll with it.

Lastly, I've been thinking alot about the controversy with what Adam did with Ashley's baby. I wonder if it comes to pass that Ashley didn't miscarry at all and what Adam saw was just spotting. Normal in a pregnancy. Regarding the good Doctor in all this, he simply told Adam a lie and knows that the baby is fine. Hence his seemingly calm attitude about Ashley's condition. I wonder.....

Anyway. A lot of stuff happenin this week and I'm anxious to see where it goes....

Does Nadam always walk like that or is he acting the part?

I am finding Sharon less and less redeemable. The games she is playing with people's lives and the lives of her children does not make her qualified to look after fish, let alone a baby. Phyllis lost custody of Daniel for doing exactly the same thing and I hope history on Y&R is going to repeat itself.

    • I don't, since they've clearly incorporated them into Tomas' storyline, and I happen to like his tattoos, but his jackets not fitting doesn't mean they're trying to cover his tattoos. The clothing overall isn't the issue; it's the fit. And I expect(ed) more from Jeresa Featherstone and her team. Very disappointed. He's the only male, overall, whose costume irritates me.
    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.   
    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
