I know she means well, but I have the urge to tell Kay to shutup.

You and me both. Great scenes with Jill, Snapper and Greg -- and then she interrupts and starts shaking her press-on nail at Jill. "Now, Jill. Stop feeling surry for yourself. Pull yourself TUH-GEH-THUH!" For crissakes. Go bother Jana and Kevin, grandma. Jill is having a meltdown because her mother is ill and she has never felt so alone or cut off from her family -- and this old bat is playing the same old "Selfish Jill" song.

Ashley don't do it! Please no.

Poor Neil never stood a chance, did he?

No. :( And you may not want to stay for the end of the episode.

To Y&R each story becomes a boring chess game most characters are pawns and the few obvious queens black knights etcetc that stay those consistent key figures in each arc. That would still make a story work if it didn't seems as if each story arc was a completely different game with different unclear uninteresting objectives which somehow manages by the end to be as relatively redundant as the previous game.

Gaww! Greg Foster ain't that bad. Just because he hasn't done the botox/tanning bed/liquor store route that Hasselhoff has.

No, I'm totally not referring to anything surgical. It's all wardrobe and hair. He's dressed and groomed like a homeless man! Hasselhoff seemed tipsy today. Anyone else notice this? He's dialed it back a bit, though... and today was much better. Today's scenes were better paced and better directed. I actually cried a little at the end. I'm stil wantin those flashbacks, DAMMIT.

Now I just want to see when the show will start up a Fluckers/Abby affair.

I actually would rather see them pair Tucker and Heather, and they just sit around all day showing various characters their showreels from DAYS/GH/AMC, while those characters nod and say, "We know, we know. It's the writing. And the producing. And the hair and wardrobe..."

If they are worried about the Brenda/Jess issue, I think most fans would understand. They could say "I look so different back then".

Heck, 1980s Brenda looks like a totally different person compared to red-haired 1970s Brenda.

I'm not talking about that, I'm saying we need Jeanne/Julianna flashbacks, and Hasselhoff/Julianna flashbacks. They should NEVER use a Brenda flashback at this point. But they don't *need* to use Jill flashbacks if they got Snapper/Greg/Kay ones.

They may not have enough time to have flashback because it could cut into the geriatric James Bond storyline.

Considering they only bothered with one flashback when they brought Phillip back from the dead after 20 years, why would they use a flashback now. They're ashamed of their history anyway.

"None atall," as OLTL's Viki would say. For once, however, I can't blame MAB. It was pretty clear from the jump that Jill-is-Kay's-daughter was a mistake; yet, Jack Smith, Kay Alden and their team did such a thorough job that there was no way to undo w/o clearing some serious hurdles. I might've said that Liz discovered the real truth just before this latest visit to GC, but even that scenario isn't perfect.

But that doesn't make Jill a Chancellor if Kay stay her mother. Because Kay name is only a Chancellor through marriage. MAB made an mistake.

+1.

It's all coincidence.

Coincidence & Subterfuge.

Casino Royale -- without Daniel Craig. :unsure:

Which is why you leave it alone and generate story from the landscape you inherited, that is if you are a HW with talent and common sense.

Exactly.
