The only woman I have ever seen Billy have chemistry with was Sharon. Otherwise it's just been dead space.

Spoilers say Billy and Victoria try to forget New Year's Eve, or something like that, so I guess they may have them hook up. This would probably delight them as it would prove to us that Billy is a bigger man than JT, Billy "got" JT's wife, on and on.

I'm just going to assume that Billy and Victoria are going for drinks only. I thought that since the special episode focused on Mac and Chloe that's where the writers are focused on with Billy. If Billy does get with Victoria, then poor JT. First Deacon now Billy. If I were Victoria, I would prefer JT over Billy and Deacon. That's just me.

I wonder what Bill Bell would think of this version of Victoria if he were still alive. I think he would be so appalled, considering how much he built this character up, and the powerhouse Heather Tom was. Look at the state of this character now, it's really pathetic.

Amelia doesn't match the role, but the writing for this core character has been atrocious for a good 5 years now...

I hope you're right, I'd rather not see them go the sex route. I would rather have JT than a lot of the guys on the show, but I think since he's generally a decent man and doesn't treat people badly (or is it bad?), Sheffer and Rauch probably see him as being weak.

Phyllis has been the only one to have an appropriate reaction to Patty and Jack, 'wtf, this is weird, but you two are adults, I'll leave you to it'.

I think he'd be appalled at the writing for women on this show period. It's just rotgut. Victoria herself is treated like such an afterthought, and only gets a story when she is bedded by a sleaze.

And Victoria would NEVER sleep with Deacon.

Here I agree. I think it's much stranger that Jack is immediately attracted to a Patty look alike. It's one thing not to blame a look alike for the crime of another. It's a whole other story when you are hooking up with them within a few weeks of meeting them. I've found that very odd right form the start. Not only that, but Emily has good reason not to trust Jack too, but she got over that in about two weeks. It should have been a good six months of interaction before they even started dating, but the good old days of nice slow pacing seem to be gone forever.

I do think Deacon and Victoria could've been a good couple if they didn't have such an awful story to work with. If Deacon were just brought on as a many who has history with Amber BUT HAS MOVED ON, then he could've added a nice little something to the show. I think the men in general lack masculinity and he would be a welcome change from that. They could also bring on 32 year old Amber's 12 year old son who I'd SORAS to 16 to interact with Noah, Abby, etc. They need to stop acting like she's 22. Lily and Daniel are, but not Kevin and Amber the two Chester molesters in Genoa City.

The only problem I have with Little D coming to town is why should Amber's kid get to be on the show when the writers can't even bring on Jack Abbott's son Kyle, or even Paul's son Ricky for that age group. I wouldn't suprise me if he came, this is the show that would rather have Ryder than Nate Hastings or Scotty Granger. If they are going to bring on children I wish that Kyle Abbott, Ricky Williams, Scotty Granger, and Nate Hastings would come before Amber's kid.

Exactly, May sweeps could have worked, Feb doesn't.

Seeing how dull the teens on this show already are, and the sleeping pill that is Chance, I think they should lay off bringing on another kid until they have better writers who know what they're doing, or not at all.

Your'e forgetting one thing, Dee Dee.... even though they haven't announced it yet, Hamner and Sheffer were let go 6 months ago, and replaced by Ron Jeremy and Chi-Chi Larue. :P
