Why does Nikki talk like that, all whispery?  It's horrible. and has she had a lobotomy?  She's totally forgotten all the [!@#$%^&*] Victor has pulled on her and others and then lied his ass off about it.  Now she's behind him %100 and believes everything he says.  Adam pled no contest  and got 30 years.  Some plea deal. I guess JH can go do his other show now.  Good for him, this show sucks.

The 30-year PLEA deal. C'mon. I just don't get that. I'm assuming that we'll get Sully reveal before JH leaves. Someone said he's on a third show, but I don't know what that is. 

Anyway, Y&R has been crazy inconsistent during this transition period. Honestly, I don't care about more flowers or funky camera angles, but good stories. I don't get how they've bungled Philly. After nearly a year of Grandpa Billy and Stephyllis, they finally got those two characters right. And now, it's just angst, instead of steam heat. 

Whoever made the decision to return Nikki to absolute idiot, should be ashamed. We all get and accept that Nikki will love Victor, but showing that decades of that love had a steep price, was an interesting evolution. Now I just FF and/or mute Nikki. I love the Victor has 'suffered enough' and how could he 'possibly do these things when he's been in prison for months.' Pathetic.

Why doesn't Chelsea just go see Adam and make a plan?  Victor was never in his cell....he was in the visitation room to see whoever came to see him whenever they wanted.  And there is no such thing as a visitation room, but in Genoa City there is.  But just go see him and plot. ???

November sweeps: Victor is suffering from kidney failure and is released from prison since he is dying. Adam is finally released from prison when he is exonerated for Constance's murder by Victor making a deathbed confession. Chloe is enraged and attempts kill Adam with a gun while he visits Victor. Chloe opens fire but Victor uses the last of his strength to cause the bullet to ricochet and end up striking Chloe killing her. Esther is angry her daughter was used by Victor but agrees to donate Chloe's kidney to Victor since she is a match. Adam, Chelsea, and the rest of the Newmans deem Victor a hero and all is forgiven and forgotten. Victor recovers and stays out of jail thanks to his deed of saving Adam.

 

Oh did I call/spoiler the ending of this story already!

it's like Victor using Patty and Marco meets Skye's death in the volcano story. Yes this story is THAT FOUL. Victor's "Oops my bad but you did need a lesson" to Adam reminds me of Sharon "understanding" of why Victor had to plead the 5th at her trial. Can't make this [!@#$%^&*] up and it makes me want to vomit.

Looks like the show is going to go with some completely implausible and ridiculous story where Victor gets out of jail because his family and friends testify about what a great guy he is at his appeal.  Riiiiight.  Whatever.  It's not like any of the show is plausible anymore.  But it sounded today like Phyllis may testify for Victor even after what he did replacing Jack with Marco and letting Marco have his way with her on numerous occasions.  How Phyllis can rationalize what Victor did is going to be amazing if it happens.  

So Victor in league with a vengeful Chloe sets up Adam, now Adam's in jail and Victor told Nikki there was nothing he could do about it.  I guess admitting he set the whole thing in motion and it was all a set up wasn't an option.  And of course Nikki believes him when he says he had nothing to do with it.  Lord, she's dumb.  

Cane and Billy both getting punched in the face was my one moment of happiness with the show today.

It really is badly hypocritical. It really drags down the entire initial fun that Billy and Phyllis was now the affair is becoming mind numbing. 

 

BTW Jess Walton shared this on her FB page, there's a nice cast photo too although I was surprised to see Catherine Bach in the photo:

    • As well as insulting our host, being rude to members who correct you, and having an inflated sense of duty. While others may be able to add numerous offenses, the egocentrism to force any conversation off-topic to focus on you is the most egregious act for me.  This is light entertainment, an interactive discussion, not the shallotpeel-hour.
    • Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show. 
    • I thought I had stopped & then I saw this post from you. To be clear I said I was wrong. I have not made an attempt at any backpedaling. There is literally no place to back pedal to. I did 3 things. I deleted. i apologized. I said I was wrong, egregiously so. 
    • I think bringing Dano back to OLTL as her original character Gretel/Rae was a last minute thing because P & G wouldn't let ABC use the Felicia character. So even though she had ties to OLTL from back in the day, she just didn't fit into the OLTL of the late 90s/early 00s.. nor did she really fit into the other soaps at ABC either. 
    • I don't think they were the biggest factor, but I do think there's a specific style to Dano's work that wasn't helped by how pointless her character often felt (and later on the various writers clearly saw the character as a joke).
    • I think Evie came in mid 1976 after Rita broke up with Tim because she realized she was leading him on.  And Evie became upset with Rita because she didn't tell her that she had previously dated Tim before she came to town.
    • Please stop, you were wrong, and you know it, now you're trying to back pedal. You even got called out by the DAYS actors/actresses on Twitter for that sh*t. It was disgusting and vile and IMO the family should have taken action against you It was clear the general public did not know about his illness and it was NOT your place to "spill the beans" just because you run a Facebook group, period! TBH IMO @Errol should have banned you ages ago Donna 
    • Who went bowling? JFP & Anna? Is there any more to this?  
    • Another character driven show with interconnecting plots that make sense. I like that we go from one character, like Sarah, learning that EJ wants to buy the hospital, casually mentioning it to Xander who now has that intel. The only down today was not seeing Steve and Shawn breaking into the lab. I wonder if Dr Poofy Hair will inform EJ about Xander's call. I loved Abe talking to Chanel about losing Isaac and giving her comfort. And helping her voice her fears about Johnny. Kayla standing up to EJ is great. Kayla, freed from Ron, has been great. I am loving all her air time. And Sarah telling her that EJ must be up to something if he wants the hospital is very smart. She would probably clue in to the sepsis research being the big thing if she wasn't choking to death. I assume Felicity messed up the scones and dropped in cleaning fluid or something. Sarah said it tasted weird. They are never getting that honeymoon, are they? Xander has no clue what job Johnny can do. Johnny knows this too. Xander wants to legitimize his takeover by hiring a Dimera. Johnny wants to stick it to EJ. The honesty is refreshing. I want to like Cat and Chad but they are just so awkward. And none of their scenes work for me. Marlena and EJ was very good. I like her wanting to help him but also scared to death for Belle. Makes perfect sense that she is conflicted. I also liked her softly asking Johnny if he needed her to stay once EJ walked in. Ron never cared about this relationship either, but now she is acting like his granny.
    • Sorry, catching up, and the bolded part, yes! Should have been sued by DH's family for that nasty sh*t too   Anywho, back to the show, Kristina is freaking nuts, she needs to be committed ASAP
