EEeeeee! I haven't gotten to watch Y&R in a couple weeks and I'm getting all my faves (save Jill) today!

LOVING Avery telling Phyllis that she and Nick are engaged. Also love that Phyllis is acting like.....Phyllis again!

LOVING that Sharon is still a little cray-cray! How many messages does it take before Sharon stops thinking of her vagina and remembers her DAUGHTER? That was presumed DEAD. Because of the guy that she was about to take her panties off for? God I LOVE this woman. She's such a mess and Sharon+a messy life= An entertaining Sharon!

I actually really like Steve Burton on this show and think he fits right in. I like Dylan McEvoy!

My only wish is that Lauren were on trying to resist Carmine's advances today, but the rest I'll take.

I'm watching LIVE on SoapNet, but one last thing- how nice to see GhostJohn coming to rain on Jack's parade today. Good stuff!

Blech, and Stafford just ruined it by making those bouncing ball noises. God, she is so effing insufferable! I'm really glad that JFP saw the same thing in Jessica Collins' Avery that I saw from jump- potential! Let's just hope they keep her quirks intact because that's what made me fall in love with her in the first place.

I agree. I like their scenes together, the friendly chemistry, but romantic love? Not feeling it at all. I don't know whether this is Michelle Stafford deliberately projecting her dislike for this pairing, or whether it is Peter Bergman's now-legendary inability to conjure up the laddish sexual chemistry needed for the character of Jack. But it's not happening -- and I don't think it would work with CLB, either.

MS did perk up in that scene with Avery though. What a raging bitch Phyllis is, but at least she has made Nick-Avery interesting for the first time ever. I love Avery but she and Nick are like watching paint dry. Dylan and Chelsea are about the same.

This was a better episode than Monday's which actually made me want to gouge my eyes out in boredom. I blame Ambien Heinle and Sominex Miller, personally. I'm not saying I want Hogan Sheffer-type ridiculousness or a slo-mo shootout at Crimson Lights, but Y&R needs just a bit more oomph to go with some admirable character-driven writing it has been doing lately (Lauren, Michael, etc).

    • https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/19/benjamin-netanyahu-israel-take-control-gaza-uk-france-canada-threaten-action    Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed that Israel will “take control” of all Gaza, as three key allies attacked his “egregious” escalation of the military campaign and blockade on humanitarian aid. Britain, France and Canada attacked Israel’s expansion of its war as disproportionate, described conditions in Gaza as “intolerable” and threatened a “concrete” response if Israel’s campaign continues. finance minister Bezalel Smotrich said Israel’s army would “wipe out” what remains of Palestinian Gaza.  “Now we conquer, cleanse and stay" ---------------------------- My thoughts: This is genocide, ethnic cleansing.  It's just evil and there's no excuse for it.  I'm glad Canada, France, and UK are making a statement, and I hope they back it up. There are some Israeli citizens who don't support what Netanyahu is doing, and I hope they are able to enact some positive change from within.
    • -- I'm not unhappy that Nina and Carly had a bad fight including slapping and tackling and falling down. But geez, all that insane SCREAMING was over the top. It was three minutes of shrieking, and I thought it was all too much. -- And ANOTHER day of Dante ripping Gio and Gio again discussing his sins and failures. Make it end already. -- In the previews, Gio is walking the Nurses Ball red carpet with Joss. Uh...why??? I don't know why Joss is there at all. Doesn't she have some secret agent stuff to do? -- Chase is at the end of the previews, yelling into the phone "You want me to do WHAT???"  My guess is that's another fakeout that there's something important going on, and that Chase got a call to perform at the Nurses Ball. This show....
    • Watching...   For the most part, today's show is boring and trending on fast-forwarding scenes.
    • I figured that they would take Kat in this direction with men for the time being. I like those small bits of history from Tomas, but I still have not warmed up to him yet. A Pamela/Vanessa feud could be worth the watch.

    • Part of me wishes Sarah Whiting had been exposed as a fraud, someone who claims to be Len and Patti's foster child, but whom Patti exposes right off the bat when she arrives in Henderson.
    • I agree, and I think both could be true: Jane Wyman needed to reduce her work schedule due to health concerns, and CBS/Lorimar took advantage of that in order to cut costs, too.
    • It's quite confusing what she's doing with her character. I'm not from the DMV, but what is that accent? Is she pulling a Dorit? Also, why are Dani and Pamela acting like they're broke. They don't have any money aside to start up a business? With their background in the modeling world, why would they even need a physical studio? They have connections (and Dani wasn't afraid to mention it when she was tasked to replace Chelsea in the fashion show when Chels pulled out). They can literally use Dani's small catwalk in her house to test potential models. They can easily scout online using social media. It's 2025! Dani is supposedly a recognized model from her day, then have her act like it. I know some people are saying it's a stretch, but in the 90s there were plenty of models that graced covers and runways with the likes of Naomi and Christie that were never as big, but they still rubbed elbows had successful careers. Dani could easily fall into that category. Also, it's not like a lot of the big name 80s and 90s models didn't go on to live very typical lives after their moment faded...why couldn't Dani be that. 
    • Ashley just wants to schtup Andre. She needed to create a big meltdown in order to get rid of Derek and feel no guilt. Doug needed to lay Joey out on the floor. He needs to get some courage and beat Joey down to the ground. Kat turning down a date with Tomas to see if Eva was locked up is a sign she's going to lose him. Even without Eva in the picture she was going to have problems. The way she talked to him when he bumped into her and she didn't know it was him seemed to be a red flag too. Leslie has revealed a whole lot of the truth on her own. Without her making all those comments to Kat she wouldn't have ended up at the police station.
