The Chicago Police Department also sent out a statement regarding the attack on Jussie.

This is terrible. I hope they catch who did this to him. I'm glad to hear that despite the attack he is good condition.

I hope they find these guys and that they get a very good lesson in how Chicago is *not* MAGA country.

This is absolutely appalling and speaks to those concerns that many people (myself included) had about a Trump presidency. It still really sickens me how many people sought to undermine those very real concerns.

I hope Smollett gets the help and justice that he needs.

Y&R: January 2026 Discussion Thread

Moral of the story: Artificial intelligence might be a part of life now for many, but just like with many things that are now commonplace, it doesn't translate automatically into good drama.

If Laurelton wasn't his story, it certainly bears many of his quirks, including the repetitive dialogue and story beats and the heroine at the center of the tale whose past includes being shamed out of town by its' close-minded citizens for being a whore. (JER is a good example of how and why religion screws with some people's heads, lol).

I think it's just something that viewers subscribe to in order to explain why certain characters have been dumped from their favorite shows.

In Minneapolis, of all places. The city where Mary Richards famously threw her cap in the air as she realized she might just make it after all. Shameful.

There was also the hot minute they had Dylan dating Eleni and appeared to be setting up the phenomenally boring triangle of Eleni/Dylan/Frank when they were still toying with A-M/Harley/Blake. What was funny is that Harley mentioning Daisy was why Eleni couldn't be with Dylan because of his values or something, but she then doesn't seem particularly fazed by A-M's two divorces in three years.
Other random observation from my current viewing: I am amused by Eleni/A-M living at the Spaulding mansion in the same bedroom where he was living with Blake and they kept the same set for when he was living there with Lucy.

Jane Elliot was pretty amazing and that “oh what could have been” rivalry with Abby.
After a couple of rewatches since getting KL on streaming I can see why now Strasser had negative feelings about her Knots experience. There’s not much to Dianne Kirkwood at all other than being a diva caricature, and her character just fizzles out only making 2 brief appearances in S12 (and not the 3 most sources claim) with her exit being a throwaway scene of “oh yeah she was still Karen’s boss and is acting unnecessarily cruel”. I would consider the misuse of Strasser a waste of talent.

This is how I felt. I also hope they're misleading us when it comes to Max. I don't want another year of him being the same mess he was before. I hope that we get to see him actively trying to be a better person before getting drawn into whatever they were teasing.
This is exactly how I feel. I stick around for those individual scenes and the relationships. I just need one story I can latch on to.

I thought it was OK - my main complaint was they were too vague. We needed at least one or two solid moments.
I'm still enjoying individual scenes, relationships, performances. Once that stops I will go back to not watching, as I often have.
