Please tell me that carpet on the stairs is gone? LOL but I'm sure THAT stayed ... sounds promising!

 

And LMAO at slick's comment. I totally missed that.

 

Billy could be annoying. There were times I did like JT. I guess the pairing with Victoria irked me so much. I thought his working thing with Paul was great.

Tuesday's episode was wonderful, from start to finish. Just solid character writing with interesting dynamics.

 

Paul & Christine arguing over Dylan's case was great and I feel it foreshadows things. They even talked about Paul's undercover story! I loved that Paul, Christine, Michael, and Lauren plan to have dinner but life/business is getting in the way. And, of course, wonderful stuff with Paul and Lauren talking about Mary. If they ever need to get Lauren away from Michael, we know exactly who can do that....

 

I don't understand the complaints about Faith running away. She wasn't even gone for half an episode. That's no "storyline." It's a development that will lead, I think, to Sharon & Nick possibly re-evaluating their situation. Speaking of Nick, MAN how I hate him when he gets like this.

 

 

I will not even entertain the talk about Bregman and Jess Walton as actresses. I can't.

 Jill was written COMPLETELY in character in her scenes with Michael and Lauren (LOVED that she wouldn't let Michael leave and instead ordered another drink) and Walton played the hell out of it. Walton is one of the best performers daytime has ever been graced with. The end.

 

And Victor finding Faith in the barn is so Y&R and very touching. He's not had a personality transplant. He's just gone BACK to more of the complicated, thinking anti-hero he used to be.

What do you mean "still"? It'll take MONTHS, if it ever happens!

    • The whole town gushing over John Black as if he was a saint is eye rolling.  I guess death really colors people's memories over his many flaws, but I guess that is normal and human nature. I'm still confused as to why Leo hasn't been written out.  The actor stank up two soaps with his sub par acting, what does he have on TPTB's to remain on these soaps.   What's the point of Cat?  I hope the new head-writers figure out her purpose and develop her character. And I much prefer scenes not focusing on John's death because life does go on for the world when someone passes.  
    • Wasn't there a break in Zaslow's first run? I thought Roger was off-screen for a while, and when Zas came back, Roger was hiding at the boarding house and Nola figured out there was something hinkey about him. I'm pretty sure Simon chose to leave the first time and was replaced by RVV. I don't want to assume Jordan's issues played a role in his first departure, but Maeve said in an interview that at some point, it became very hard for her to work with him and she asked to work with him less. That seems to fit 1986, where suddenly Vanessa is essentially Ross' law clerk and not at every Lewis family moment.
    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse
