Michael to Christine: She wasnt trying to hurt anyone..she wasnt trying to kill you....

So that's the new, official story, eh? Phyllis didn't run them down with her car. No, Christine and Paul accidentally backed into the car with their bodies.

SMDH.

I understand dismissing the lawsuit and moving forward, but Christine was absolutely the victim that entire relationship with Phyllis. She never did anything to Phyllis and was continuously abused. I don't understand why they can't acknowledge this and have other characters acknowledge this and still keep Phyllis free.

Frankly, I'd be surprised if Christine ever showed up in GC again. They really threw her under the car bus.

When Michael told Christine that Phyliss didnt try to kill her even though she ran her down...and blamed her for continuing harping over her almost being killed was just too much.

And if I were Christine, too, I'd regret ever forgiving that bastard Michael and building a friendship with him after the [!@#$%^&*] he pulled on me once upon a time.

As I said, Christine has no real reason ever to go back to that town. Just have her tell Nina, "If you need me, you know where to find me," then say adios for good.

So do we know for sure that it was Lauralee Bell who lead the charge to get MAB fired?

It's sickening the way Phyllis got off scot-free, SCREAMED in Christine's face about getting off scot-free, and then a line of losers went to smack Christine with "Phyllis is love, you iz EVUL" [!@#$%^&*]. I can't even with Heather, Weasel-face or Michael (who was once my favourite character). Even Paul had to do the whole "Let it go, Christine." The propping of this repugnant character is so unnecessary anyway because even Phyllis haters like myself enjoy watching Phyllis when she is the flawed, evil anti-heroine -- which only works if she pays for her crimes now and then.

If LLB leaves now, we'll know how all this panned out behind the scenes. Too bad. I thought JFP would have told some of the rampant egos on that set to cool it.

Even if Chris Engen were still in the role(who I much preferred and wish had stayed), I still wouldn't understand keeping Adam after all he's done and trying to make him seem like an every day normal citizen of GC.

OMG, I *loved* Chris Engen. It's too bad he got his cred as an actor completely trashed. It should have been a contract issue but MAB made it into something so much worse.

I will give MM his props, though. In the scenes where Nick tried to attack him at the hospital, he was understated -- in a good way.

Oh, and it was GREAT to see Uncle Phil! James Avery should be on contract somewhere as the philandering patriarch of a family IMO.

Tyler Douglass & Sarge family.

Loved James Avery LOL. Always have. Would love to see him on a show somewhere or even stick around Y&R.

I often wondered if Maria channeled her hate for Lauralee onto Christine for this storyline. LOL!

He didn't come off as obnoxious as all those other sitcom actors we've had on this year.

Christine needs to fill her gas tank and "accidentally" run over Phyllis.

On Fresh Prince of Bel Air, James Avery had so much presence and humor as Philip Banks. That's saying something on a show with Carlton, Jeffrey, Hillary and, of course, Will. Seriously -- he should be on some show playing a wealthy patriarch with a sharp tongue and weakness for the ladies. He would nail a role like that and it would be so fun to watch.

LOL, can you imagine if they squeezed in a scene between him and Tatiana Ali on Y&R? She played his daughter on FP.

I'm sure MAB would've had the Judge and Tatyana's character run into each other at the Athletic Club and say something cheesy like "I know you from somewhere"

I had hoped a good night's rest would help me deal better with this latest, most insane round of Phyllis propping. Alas, it didn't. Y&R's revisionist tactic, whitewashing Phyllis' past misdeed and painting Christine (who I never liked, btw) as a raging bitch for wanting justice, has to be one of the most foul and reprehensible things I have seen on a soap opera, and certainly on Y&R. I don't even care who was responsible for this mess. All I know or care about is that it conjures up for me memories of "Coopers are GOOD, Spauldings are BAD!" b.s. on GUIDING LIGHT; and for me, that's scary, because that was the point when I went from, "There's still hope for this show!," to "I'll strike a match and burn down the set my damn self!".

"Son. This is what we like to call in Daytime 'getting the black storyline moving.' Bill Bell sat on my shoulder while I wrote that scene!"

It's such a shame that JFP and Griffith is continuing the trend of the insane Phyllis propping. I guess everyone at CBS/Sony thinks MS is some acting goddess that needs to be catered to.
