Damn y'all, I love me some Phyllis.

Hate this shriveled face old hag. Bitch needs to die!

Caught up on Y&R this week and saw Genie Francis for the first time as Genevieve. Seriously - WTF!! That's all I have to say.

Wow! Neil is the father. I was totally spoiler free on this. I actually felt really bad for Malcolm - the look on his face when he found out & when he handed the baby to Malcolm was SO sad!! Throughout the whole episode he was bonding with baby Moses & then the results came in. Good stuff there. I wonder what's next for Malcolm now?

So far so good with the Devon/Tucker/Harmony story. I'm loving it. Loved Kay inviting Harmony to live with her simply because of the fact that she's family. I am so glad Harmony didn't take Tuckers money. What a selfish old dolt he is.

LOL!!

And that self serving, self absorbed, unstable character is the Kay Chancellor I LOVE. If MAB and Co would just realize that a good many of us like Kay written as a conflicted, hot mess of a bitch they'd be writing a much more likeable character!

I agree. And Jeanne Cooper looks like she enjoys it more, too. Did you see Kay ordering Brock and Murphy around to get her a damn phone the other day? LOL. She was waving and clicking her rings like it was 1989.

You know, I will give Michelle Stafford this: I love her hair right now. Wavy, to the shoulder, 1940s-style. She looks as good as she did back in the Glow by Jabot days when she had a shorter cut. But her acting mannerisms! And Phyllis is monstrous! Like LW's Carly-monstrous -- a big reason why I can't face watching GH anymore.

It is really sad how MAB wrote that Sharon-Nick-Phylis triangle into the ground by making out that Phyllis was the wronged party and Nick got a free pass, too. There was a great scene where Phyllis trashed Sharon's hotel room at the GCAC, scrawled "I hate myself" in red lipstick on the mirror, looked at her own reflection and said "I hate you, too." I actually thought the triangle was going to go somewhere, but it just went to hell. LOL, remember back in the LML days when Nick got in a plane crash, forgot the last two years of his life and that he was even married to Phyllis? Phyllis was all "WOT ABOUT OWR DEEP CONNECSHUN, NICK!!! WE PLAY COMPUTER GAMES AND HAVE SEX AND... PLAY COMPUTER GAMES! SO DEEP!" When Sharon showed up at hospital, he planted a mega kiss on her in front of everybody, including Phyllis. It was the last good thing that Lynn Marie Troll ever wrote. Damn, they totally fucked up the show's most viable triangle by playing favourites with their self-appointed star.

DaytimeFan, IA with you about Stafford's star role up to a point -- except I would argue that Melody Thomas Scott and Brenda Dickson were Y&R's major diva stars. MS was more like the Rebecca Budig of Y&R -- somebody who had fans and pepped up the show when she returned but who the PTB decided must be the show's #1 marketing draw. Wrongly, as it turned out.

I'm happy Neil has a bio kid.

I used to be a Phyllis lover, from her first scene till about 2003 and then she started to eat the show alive. Michelle Stafford became a "star" at Y&R, the only soap, so far as I can recall, that never had a breakout diva or star (Eric Braeden's close, but he isn't Lucci or Slezak or Strasser or Wyndham or Dano or Zimmer)...and that's when I just had enough of Phyllis. She was the ideal supporting character, just like Michael Baldwin. The minute they both became leads, it was all over.

I couldn't agree more. WORD. I would add that THE Stafford © has started developing - ca. 2006, under LML where she became more star material - an egregious amount of acting ticks which are just too much.

I'm happy Neil has a bio kid.

The time is right for Neil to finally have a decent storyline. If TIIC would/could really write then Neil could either be a SOB ( he wants the baby but not the momma) or a SAINT (he wants both baby and momma). My vote would be for the SOB because of the potential.

I would love to see Neil get a story line; he has two if written right for him; the Devon story line and the one he is in now regarding his being the father of Moses.

That Sophia/Malcolm divorce paper scene on Monday's show was really well done! Loved it.

Is Malcolm really leaving town for good? Can't say I'm sad lol.

I like to think Malcom was never in town.

Y&R really needs to stop equating Dru's rape with Neil/Sofia having consensual sex.

Was the Dru story ever treated as rape at the time?

Yep.

I see why they brought in Yolanda, so she can go head to head with Tucker.

No secret, they're pretty much hoping the stars that they bring in will be enough to lure in viewers. Sadly the acting can't be enough to save this show.

Debbi is doing a good job with what they are giving her but not even she can pull Stephen Nichols out of the lull this show has Tucker in.
