Playing catch up AND...

 

SHUT UP, PHYLLIS. I did not at all like that she indirectly has caused drama for the Abbotts by encouraging Billy to stay as Jabot CEO.

 

Yep...over Jack being self-pitying which has revealed that it's been overboard with the Abbotts now. Shocking since I'm sure in my last post I was happy to have a break from the Newmans. Now that I see story shifting I feel it's needed since I now want a bit of a break from the Abbotts (except for Traci and Ashley).

 

I'm gotten to Summer's return. So far...I don't mind her as a vixen. And they are doing a good job of showing her history with all the characters. And I have to give MY this much...he does seem to be bring the YOUNG back to the RESTLESS. Charlie/Shauna. Mariah/Kyle/Tessa...which I'm not sure how I feel about. And now Summer. 

 

Hevon is love. Like I said during the final (at the time) arc for Nicole on DAYS. I will take Eric/Nicole for as short time as I have them because that was a story cut short and teased for years (like Liason over on GH too) so that is how I feel about Hevon given recent news. 

 

Ugh at Victor. But I admit that JM stepped up in those scenes where he confront Victor and trumped him when he revealed he already knew about Christian being Adam's. 

 

 

All I got for now.

So companies are walking away from Newman because of a leaked online article? Uh...ok. I hate it when business stories make zero sense.

 

i think Mal has already played out the “Kyle is naked” thing. Having Summer get naked with him doesn’t make the scene any more interesting or fun. And can Mariah stop with the snarky judgment? Why the hell would she care about where Kyle and Summer get busy? I’m ignoring Tessa’s presence because I hate her.

 

Billy and Phyllis in bed? Zzzzzzzzzz. Kill me now and light me on fire. And JaBoat? This is the way to show Billy can’t run the business?

Why does Jack want to be a Chancellor so darn bad if Phillip wasn't the founder of Chancellor Industries? If he's just one of Katherine's many dead husband's how does it entitle him to have a position at CI?

 

And the other day Jack was talking about getting his piece of the Chancellor pie. Does he not realize that Kay only left the Chancellor and Reynolds heirs one piece of that pie to split 5 ways,

 ( he would make it 6 ways). Devon got the rest of the pie. 

 

If Jack is looking for a Katherine payout he should be tracking down Judge Arthur Hendricks. Dina screwed everyone else in town why not him too? That's where the billions are.

Does Mal know that Kay and Dina were very good friends? The Phillip affair is beyond stupid, not to mention that we are supposed to believe that she always knew that he was Jack's father.

 

Why would someone change the paternity of a 65-year old who has been on the show for almost forty years? 

 

Jack Chancellor, Jill Fenmore. This show is dead.

And when was the last time Jill and Lauren had meaningful scenes together? Both on recurring.....the Jill Fenmore mess was done for pure shock value and just forgotten.

 I'm pretty sure Jack's going to end up an Abbott after all. There seems to be another purpose for all this to me.

 

First they are minimizing Phillip's importance. Devon referred to him as one of Katherine's dead husbands. You would say his name if he was a respected man. I got the impression they're trying to portray Phillip as of many husbands Kay supported on her dime, like the ones that followed him. But that's not true at all. There are early clips with Kay accusing Jill of wanting Phillip for His money. 

YouTube-Kay Chancellor Flashback of hospital visit from Jill after the car wreck in 1975 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCoXGGZtlRk&list=PLlqnrBSqxOqbR3YjF-ImIwwFHuwLFk6yr

There was a better one when Kay & Phillip are arguing over the divorce and he's trying to give her the house. Why would he offer her the house if it was already hers? But that clip's been deleted.

 

 I remember the Rainbow Gardens storyline with Cricket, and she saved the day by turning up the fact that Civil war hero Garfield Dandridge Chancellor ( Phillip's great-great-grandfather) had drawn up the first Genoa City Charter, and hired a world-renowned architect to build what was now the Rainbow Gardens apartments. So the building was declared a historical landmark, and the senior citizens could stay. The Chancellors founded Genoa City, there was no way Phillip was one of Kay's flunkie husbands.

 

The recharacterization of Kay as the ultimate business woman who grew CI into this massive success, and she's the one responsible for all of her wealth won't fly with me . I've watched her jump off a cruise ship, and lose CI to her hairdresser. Some days she wouldn't have been able to tie her shoes to save her life.

 

I suspect it's all a set-up to take Chancellor from Jill. Mal has taken almost every other female owned company away, why would he leave Jill with one, even off screen?

    • 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
