Of course it does. :P Brooke's twat has been the center since dumbass Brad took over. I miss the days when Bill was alive and still over-seeing the show because if you didn't care for story A, there was always a B and C story. Nowadays, it's so incestuous in this cesspool of a show, you can't tell if there are A, B, and C stories. They all run together.

I'm gonna tease my buddy LSV on how corny Carter was today. I rewatched the episode on TVGN. Katie has sugar, right? Did she and Ridge really have a friendship back in the day, or is that a retcon? JY's veneers look great.

What was the point of showing flashbacks of Katie as a kid from Y&R? They didn't even fit the scene and didn't add to that montage. Were they trying to say she's been waiting for a man like Ridge since she was a teen? I thought the flashbacks of her with him recently were effective enough

I agree. The show is only 18 mins long, all these flashbacks are annoying. The scenes in the park were good, even great by today's soap standards, but I don't need to see them 10 times in two weeks. It would have been much better, if they had given Katie and Ridge an additional day of scenes, before she sent him back to Brooke. Give their relationship a little more substance, so we can care.

    • Regarding the mobster storyline: The scripts, the cardroom set, and the writing for Joey -- are all terrible. They seem to be writing a realistic depiction of compulsive gambling as an addiction, showing that it pops into his head all the time -- it has become hardwired into his brain.  The APA (American Psychological Association) describes compulsive gambling as having a similar effect on the physical brain as drug and alcohol addiction. https://www.apa.org/monitor/2023/07/how-gambling-affects-the-brain I think Jason Graham (Doug) is doing an adequate job playing Doug as a compulsive gambler, with the thoughts/urges coming into his head all the time, and being unable to stop. However, the cardroom set is awful and the mobster storyline is a bad cliché, so it's all so uninteresting to watch. I think Mr. Graham is doing the best he can with the crap they gave him to work with. If anyone reading or watching has a gambling issue, check out Gamblers Anonymous.  They have many types of meetings -- in-person, online, video, audio, etc.  They also have resources for friends/family of compulsive gamblers.
    • Today was painful (especially for Philip).  I still feel for Xander. He was clear he was happy sharing and working with Philip. It's just one more betrayal from someone he loved. Going back to last year when he found out about Victor and Fiona, then Alex and Philip. He forgave and tried. Then Philip went behind his back again. He's been walking on the edge for weeks. This is a man who was abused, neglected and has never had any therapy for his horrific past. He has zero coping skills because he's never learned them. I hate this but I refuse to hate Xander
