Im finally all caught up with y&r after being on vacation for the past week. Wow could they make it anymore obvious that a baby switch may be in the future. I dindt like the speculation on this board but Im pretty convinced of it now

Brad has been dead for how long and Victor still finds Colleen to be a nuisance? This plot lost all its punch considering she only appears once or twice a month and they have done little with this

Ok... I have to know this: Who the HELL let Marcille on the soundstage with her fingernails painted like a basket of damned EASTER EGGS????!!! I'd have sent that bitch down to the CVS for some Lee press-ons and made her pay for it with her OWN MONEY.

Here's the thing. Only one of them has a baby. The other one had their baby burned in the fireplace or flushed down the toilet or whatever. This means they're going to have to come up with either a live baby or a dead baby for one of them. A live baby would be anticlimactic.What would be the point of both of them having live births? Nah. We, the audience will probably have to be subjected to watching one of these already half crazy women, both of whom have lost a child or two, lose yet another baby.

Can't wait.

I think it's supposed to be fashionable.

Victor and Ashley were going to have the reception at the GCU frat house (Nick has connections there). TOGA, TOGA, TOGA. It's something JT would enjoy, Victoria is going to make him babysit Reed.

Caught the episode yesterday evening.

ICAM with both of these posts on how I felt about the show. Although I can also understand and agree with others concerning the destruction of the Colleen character, I found some things about this episode entertaining.

The thing is that I tend to give writers very liberal creative license at times to tell their stories. So I can look over some story holes. Like Toups, the pacing is the biggest issue I have with the show right now. Could the "favorites" - MS, SC, PB, EB - have a guarantee of 5 shows a week in their contracts? Is that still realistic in today's soap world? How could it not be cheaper for them to show the "faves" M-W-F and other stories on Tu and Thur? It would make the show alot more enjoyable.

In-T-Wayzz.....

I really like the new Mac. She isn't especially exciting but I don't know... I like how she's just kinda laid back and quiet. You can't do much with her but as a supporting character she's pretty cool.

She's really grown on me the last few weeks. When she first came on I really didn't like her, but like you said ian, as a supporting character, she works. I think she works really well as someone that the others can go to for support or a "talk to" character. I'm still out on whether she works with Billy though.

Billy Miller is putting a lot into it... so it's working OK - but they don't have a lot of push. I can see him not ending up with Chloe because they were doomed from the start, but BM and EH are excellent apart and together at any rate, in any scenes they share.

    • I also really enjoyed Eva's scenes with Kat today. They have an interesting chemistry. I thought it really did feel a bit like sisters at conflict. Especially with the way that Eva was trying to convince Kat to forgive Ted and them both coming to the conclusion that the man they thought was their father was different wasn't who they really thought he was initially. And the way that Eva broke down when Kat said that she was dead to her was emotional stuff. I really do think that in spite of their conflict/bickering Eva really would have loved to have gained a sister, along with a brother, father, etc... Also, I thought it was interesting how Eva kept saying that she loves Ted and Nicole. That and Leslie mentioning that Kat/Eva are almost twins really does make me wonder if Kat may really be her twin and Nicole's as well. I would gladly welcome that outcome, even if it takes a while for it to come out. At this point Leslie doesn't deserve Eva as a daughter as far as I'm concerned. And I would forward to a storyline where we found out that she's Nicole's second baby girl, and all the complex and ultimately happy feelings that would bring Nicole. Eva/Kat could still have a rivalry, especially if Nicole ended up bonding more with Eva. And then we could get the rest of the family's reaction to that as well.

    • Bravo to every single person responsible for today's episode. From the writer on down to Kraft services. Yall I'm getting emotional but I wish my granny was here to have seen this soap since she was the one to introduce me to this medium.

    • Everything is fraught with confusion. Why is Leslie pleading with the Duprees to accept Eva? She's not biological family so what is this? She's the product of an affair with their in-law so Leslie wants them to accept her? I'm getting GOOD TIMES vibes of Leslie and Eva minus the physical abuse.
    • Big fan of today's writing. In particular, I like EJ complexity, crying over Johnny and conspiring at the same is tough to pull off in the same episode, but it goes very far in explaining EJ's motives. I don't hate the idea of Cat and EJ, and I especially appreciate everyone trying to warn her, but she is sticking to the plan. Boy oh boy, when Brandon Beemer wears a shirt that matches his eyes, I get lost in the screen!
    • Yeah, I think that Leslie's speech would have had a bit more of an impact if Ted had been the Dupree's son, with Nicole being the daughter in law they loved like a daughter. But being that he's the son in law, and that Eva (at least not right now) isn't technically a Dupree, it doesn't hold as much weight. They aren't caring much for Ted right now and their feelings could be trickling down to Eva. Though, I do think they have some sympathy for her. I really enjoyed today's show. Loved a stripped, down hurt but still strong in her resolve Nicole. DD continues to shine and shows why she is IMO the heart of the show. I felt her words, and anger at Ted and how she broke down in Kat's arms at the end. She is just wonderful all the way around. I also loved the way that Anita read Leslie. She was spot on about her and how mishandled everything with Ted and Eva. And speaking of Leslie... I immediately thought the same thing once I saw that scene. That what she exhibited was trash behavior. I don't think she's a good mother. In fact, I think she's lousy. Granted, I have missed some episodes, but I haven't really seen her do anything to indicate that she really cares for Eva or her well being. All she's really done is try and manipulate/use Eva for her own agenda since she came to town.   
    • I thought Brandon C was much more believable as Martin today.  Before, I watched an actor trying to portray a character.  Friday and today, I simply felt the character.
    • The way Leslie uses her love shower Eva with and then snatches it away when Eva doesn’t do what she wants is something that should be focused on down the road.    Great end to the episode overall and kudos to the writing and production team for carefully executing all of this.
