And to the Josh Morrow never-ending debate (this part isn't really geared towards you ajsp, lol) because @Soapsuds can't stop bringing him up even though he claims to hate him I don't think he's very good, I actually think he's lousy in scenes with Braeden and I think he's been phoning it in for a very long time. His fratbro persona is kind of annoying, it's time to grow up. I'd hang out with him and have a beer and I think he's attractive (shush ron!) but he's really not that great of an actor for someone who's been in the genre for over 20 years. But if someone likes him, more power to them, but it's OK that we don't like him. I truly do think he's a lazy actor. I'm not going to say "bad" because I think he can be better than he is if he actually tries. He likely needs to be without the role for a time being to appreciate it more and to learn how to mentally show back up for work again. JMO. A long break would do wonders.

I've started to take note of whose names appear on the script when Hilary is written this way versus whose name are listed when she's written decently. 

 

 

That should be interesting.  Let me know if you see a pattern!

Yeah I’m very curious to see if there’s a correlation as well. 

 

And I agree with @ChitHappens, I’m very much enjoying the business stories currently. They seem to have life again and Ashley being so openly messy is great. This story and JT coming back have given Victoria some life as well.

For me, what’s happening with Victoria is nothing short of miraculous. I’m beginning to love to hate her instead of wanting her off my screen or dreaming of having Heather Tom back.

 

The way the chess pieces are being put in place could drive story for a while if, and that’s a big if, MY can have some patience and let things play out for a bit.

Apropos nothing... I happened to be flipping through an old SOD from 1997 the other day and forgot that Sarah Aldrich played Victoria for half a year. Thirteen years of Heather Tom and 2018 marks Amelia Heinle's thirteenth year in the role. Time flies.

Indeed. I remember those scenes back in the day when Victoria lost her virginity to Ryan and how painful it was for her. Would have loved to see the continuity with HT bringing all that history with her, but AH is finally (after 13 years) settling in.

 

I miss Jess Walton, and Jill has many connections on today’s canvas (especially Billy, Jack and the Abbotts), but the characters who had the most enjoyable and complex relationships with her (Katherine, John, Mamie, Nina, Phillip, Mac) are all long gone, and she’d become so marginalized in the past 15 years and lately had become sort of a Maggie Horton to Cane’s Daniel. It’s just hard for me to get super excited to see her back full-time, even though she was one of the reasons I loved Y&R in the first place.

 

If JT sticks around, a Mac recast is probably inevitable, so it could be interesting to bring back Jill should they ever explore Billy/Mac again.

Ending the show with Lame.

Yeah, Messa and Lame are the two false notes on this much-improved show. They keep on pushing Lame as if they’re the show’s marquee couple.

Today was a buzzworthy day. I buzzed through 85% of the show on FF, aside from a few Hillary, Nikki/Victor, Devon scenes. Why is JT no longer a heroic character, but now a douche-y control freak? I know he was dick-ish when he was young, but the character had evolved from that. Why must Snortoria be on every day? Watching Chelsea spin blame to Jordan zzzzzzzzzzzzzz and Cane/Lily's vow renewal... zzzzzzzzz. Pretty "LAME" episode in my book.

 

I don't care much about any of the four couples MY feels the need to showcase. (Billy/Phyllis, Nick/Chelsea, Lily/Cane, Victoria/ JT).

I guess my local feed thought so too because right before the opening intro the feed was off with the voice and actual picture. It never recovered and neither did today's episode. I just put it on mute and saw the video....LOL

I am just so pleased at Sharon's (aka Gina Roma) lack of presence in this story that technically she should be driving given its outcome, but it looks like Phyllis will ONCE AGAIN solve another Nick "paternity" issue.  She is 3 for 4!

And once again someone has to save Nick's sorry behind because he is worthless. It is unfortunate that poor Sharon will probably be stuck with him again.

Nah, Nick will be busy probably fighting Victor for custody, (no BabyNappers plse) and nuSummer, who is a miniPhyllis

Devon totally knew Hillary wasn't going to react well when he told her he was dating that new singer.

Summer, a miniPhyllis?  Phyllis did way worse than Sharon and she was in her right state of mind
