So have I. :-)

LOL. It's become increasingly common. I'm getting used to it.

I hated Paul Cramer so much. Only pairing Natalie ever had that I couldn't even bear to watch. So I'm sure my bias is showing.

Paul Cramer and Billy Abbott are completely different characters

I know people are turned off by Chloe but I love the realism of her tearing through town and letting everyone she encounters know how happy she is that the sociopathic child killer is dead. It's ain't pretty but grief never is and neither is retribution.

That little look of recognition Chloe gave Devon. Uhm, did she just notice what a good man he is. Get him girl.

Jack finally gave a proper response to Billy being alive. Good.

Glad to see Jill in the previews. I am really hoping that Colin is rescuing her instead of the perpetrator that kidnapped her. That is not the way to sell a romance. Just no. And please don't let his reappearance turn into a story all about Cane.

Agree about Chloe re: Adams's death, and Jack.

I don't believe that Chloe is thinking of Devon in any type of romantic or sexual way at all. I saw only gratitude from a grieving mother in her last scene.

This was how Colin was always portrayed to be and people are still ga ga over the pairing. He's still a bleeping thug. Jill, as flawed as she is, deserves better.

I love how they are dissolving the connection between Adam and the Delia project. The entire cast at the Chancellor mansion seemed to be relieved when discussing Adam's presumed death.

Really? I guess I'm in the minority again. I liked Billy Miller, but wasn't a major fan or anything. But I could never stand David Tom. And he hasn't improved IMO.

This is what I am thinking too, at this point. I am anxious to see him as Billy not physically impaired.

^^^^Re: Colin...I just posted an interview of TR, JW, and DG done by Michael Fairman. I am not happy. The only thing I abhor more than Jill's "connection" to Cane is Lily's Marriage to Cane. I don't understand why Jess wants this pairing with Colin or "connection" to Cane for Jill.

Thank you Cassidine.

We already discussed why she wants it. Cane was her idea and DG is like her son. She said so herself.

Yes, but to say that Jill loves Cane more than the other children and for Jess to clearly have no issue with it being written this way...absurd.

I got worried too when they said the GCAC was being renovated. I don't like JFP's sets, they're so un-Y&R. I bet the GCAC will have bricks like the new Newman Ranch or the police station. We lose the background music and now the dark coloured sets.

It's more likely than not going to be a mess. A generic, ugly mess at that. I swear she will probably want to "fix" the Abbott house, too.

David Tom was excellent as Billy. What I saw of him as Paul Cramer I wasn't crazy about. Goes to show what a huge effect casting, writing, producing & directing (as well as personal life drama) can have on an actor. It's understandable to discount him due to only having seen him as Paul but I hope he'll be able to return to the good old days.

The transition form Billy Miller to David Tom has very smooth. They look so much alike and they both play the character the same way. Kudos to DT and the directors of todays episode!

The last 3 episodes have been so good. How ironic it started getting good the first day of sweeps. Just goes to show that JFP and the writers were purposely giving us crap trying to save the good stuff for sweeps. I know most shows do that to a certain extent but this was just so obvious. The show went from horrible to really good. Not looking forward to the end of sweeps at all if this is going to continue to be their MO.

BTW I hate Chloe.

Thatisall.

I don't think DT and BM look alike.

that hairdo on DT

I haven't seen a lot of DT's original run, but overall I was impressed by what I saw so far.....I can't wait to see what happens when he hopefully gets to recreate the character.

The dialogue has def gotten better IMO....that's the one thing that always made me lose interest.

There was no smirking for a change. I always liked David Tom on Y&R, so I say welcome back!
