Seriously? Please come up with some better shade.

 

Y&R ratings are still WAY above the other soaps’ ratings, so snarking about cancellation is ridiculous.

 

Nothing can make me feel anything for her. My favorite part of the episode was Noah reading her for filth.

 

Why is she set up in Devon’s office anyway? Pathetic.

Ditto! And it's nice not only actually to see Noah but see Noah with a purpose. The storyline was sorely missing him, and now that he's back, it at least makes more sense. Tension with his mom, tension with Mariah.

Agreed. They were the standout scenes of the episode. And I say this as a committed non-fan of AH. Ashley joining NE (and taking over B&S) is breathing life into the business SL. I suspect this is only to tide things over during Ordway's maternity leave, but I prefer this rivalry. Victoria has always been insanely jealous/hateful of Ash and there is decades of history there. 

 

I love having JT back (wish he'd shave that peach fuzz off his chin though). And incredibly TL is the first guy in years with whom AH has chemistry. But their relationship happened SO fast. Literally overnight! I wish they'd taken a little more time to show them slowly reconnecting.

And then today they had Nick approach Sharon about Adam. We've literally had years of Sharon and Adam not being acknowledged at all. As I said previously, I wasn't a Shadam fan but it is nice to see a big part of Sharon's life in the last 15 years, not be ignored.

 

While I believe Ashley leaving Jabot because she lost the fight that she made ugly to begin with is petty, I will say moving over to Newman is great story wise and today's scenes were very good. The tension between Victoria and Ashley was perfect.

Now JT has mentioned Colleen one too many times for it to be just a line and that nothing comes of it.  If they were to 'resurrect' that character, I know exactly how I'd write that one.

It could be promising to see Ashley and Victoria mix it up, then add Abby to the mix later on.

In the back of my mind though, I can't help but wonder how long before we're thrust into another proxy battle between Jack and Victor, they have a way of having those two take over storylines.

 

Is it just me or are those P*ussybows on Victoria's blouses getting bigger?

 

I wonder whether this is an end to GC Buzz?  Will Hilary sell to the highest bidder, only to discover that they will 'strip' the show for parts?  Or are they linking Devon and Hilary up via HWG acquiring GC Buzz?

    • Hahaha - I do. I've always been the type, though, that can't miss anything. I get FOMO, so I'll not skip episodes or fast forward anything. There are only a few TV shows I've dropped because they got so bad vs. sticking it out to the end.  The promise that GL 1997 is better is what keeps me going. I especially want to see the fallout of Blake's lie about her twins and then Annie's descent which I believe won Watros's Emmy.
    • Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of

        FROM THE VAULT: NON-SOAP DAYTIME RATINGS: HIGHLIGHTS FROM AUGUST 1973 & NOVEMBER 1973:
    • The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975. 
    • No. Ed and Holly were married and having problems. She had an affair with Roger and that's when Christina--Blake--was conceived. The rape happened much later, after Holly and Roger were married.
    • Was Blake the product of Roger raping Holly, or did that come after when they were a couple?
    • I really wish we could see that episode...absolutely, my memory could be faulty, it was a very long time ago. I'm not going to contradict what the actors said--there has to be a reason it made them so uncomfortable that they talked about it in the press and complained to TPTB. I think that was the first one where they made the point that they wanted to educate the audience about the subject.
    • I just did with GL and its made me very happy!

          Oh yes, trying to get into any soap from scratch starting post-2010 would be hard. I prefer to go back to the good ol' days, before the decline. 
    • Can we talk about how iconic the 1994 tornado was on AMC? I was scanning through old episodes last night and came across this episode. The tornado was epic and the storylines/aftermath were so good (Julia's scar/Noah!; Jenny/Ray/Nola/Jesse in heaven with Tad, etc).  For 1994, these special effects and budget for this big event were amazing. 10 out of 10!  The only thing missing is Erica!  I can't recall where Erica was at the time, but I really wish she had been involved in this storyline.
