Love it! Contrary to others I’d say her 2017 return was brilliant and beyond everyone expectations. It just watered down to zero when Kim Brown announced her run for politics and she became the resident waitress.

Sheila's last appearance started well, but by the time Kimberlin Brown decided to run for politics. Brad Bell had her waitressing at the Italian restaurant serving Brooke breadsticks and rigatoni. Hopefully, this time we get a semi-decent story. I take it he is younger than Mary Margaret and older than Diana.  And we can just ignore those other two children played by Wilson Bethel and Yvonne Zima from the sister show. 

I do hope this means we can get to see both Mary-Margaret and James Warwick to help fill this story out too. 

I did like someone's theory on Twitter I saw about Morgan DeWitt being Finn's mother. But I figured with Kimberlin tweeting back at Ted King that she was the one. I'm surprised Brad didn't try to keep this on the hush. Though I guess the show needs the publicity more at this moment. 

Yeah... we can ignore them. Sheila can only have 3 children we can care about. I do want Mary and Diana to return on the canvas.

What we saw onscreen and rewrites. I used real time for the rewrites.

1991 - Sheila miscarries Scott Sr.'s child.

1997 - Sheila gives birth to Mary Warwick.

2002/2003 - Sheila becomes involved w/ Massimo Marone, supposedly resulting in Diana Marone.

2005/2006 - Sheila becomes involved w/ Tom Fisher, supposedly resulting in twins Daisy and Ryder Fisher.

In the timeline, Finn's birth and adoption would either have been before Sheila arrived in Genoa City, or in between Mary and Diana.

Yeah but all that was featured during summer 2020 pandemic reruns on Y&R.  Daisy, Ryder, Phelia, Sarah, Tom Fisher, and related storylines. All of it. 
Would Brad expect everyone to have not watched Y&R last summer?

For the brief couple days where we knew Ted King was his real father but there was a mystery around his mother, my mind went there too. I am partial to Morgan because I love SB but it would have been hell of a twist considering she had kidnapped Steffy as an infant to be her own daughter.
Of course it also would have made no sense since her entire story was about her inability to have children.

It started fine. It quickly went downhill. I mean, you have SHEILA wiping tables?

 

Again, B&B desperately needs a shot in the arm. Brad focusing on Steffy and Finn is smart.

 

I just don't think he cares

Quoting Digest:
As for what to expect from Sheila this time around, Brown teased, “I really thought she had changed the last time she was there. She was really trying to be a better person. There’s no doubt about that, and I don’t think that that has changed. But, even for people who have become better, in the face of society, when you have certain elements in life that refuse to acknowledge that betterment, you just hope you don’t slip back into some of your old ways….  "
end quote

So that's how Kimberlin explains Sheila being "nice" in her last run? That Sheila had "changed". Really?  In my opinion, Sheila cannot change, so that whole thing never rang true.

    • How did you guess that! Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees. Anita was serving "solo artist" realness the whole time. Stole the show.

    • Bye bye Dalton. Unfortunately this is going to fall on Sonny though, when for once he didn’t kill anyone.
    • Up to December 7th, 1992.

      "Grief, mental illness... and a handjob." Let's get done with the hardcore drama first... before we continue with the lighter stuff. Bo's condition worsened after the hot psychiatrist gave the risky idea to SHOW him Sarah's body. Dr. Jonas is triggering these people into catastrophes every day. It's almost like he gets pleasure out of this. Well... they did show him Sarah and the result was BAD. Bo went into a crazy meltdown, locked himself with the corpse... and started putting blankets on her to warm her up. Disturbing scene... yet powerful work from Robert S. Woods. Bo's resolve came at the end of December 7th's episode when he let Viki come inside and talk to him. I've chosen this as the clip of the day - anyone who ever underestimates or puts down soap actors, just because they are working in a soap... should see this. And then we'll talk. Very powerful.  Viki did what she does best - performed a miracle almost, getting Bo to open up and let the family in. And after that... everyone was looking at her like she is God. The children... Clint himself... everyone standing by the door expecting "savior Viki" to continue being the mother figure they desperately need. But Viki is also a woman. Woman, whose heart is no longer in that house with Clint... She wants to be with Sloan so bad... she has started looking at her husband in a different, colder way. He even came to her bedroom in his robe, probably expecting Viki to invite him in... but he got a chilly response.  Alongside Bo's terrifying breakdown... there were some grim events unfolding at Asa's house as well. Dorian and Blair's fighting made Addie become aggressive towards Asa of all people. She attempted to stab him with a pair of scissors. Asa then finally said "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!". It's either the baby or your sick mother. She must make a choice. What he doesn't realize... is that there is no baby. When he decided to contact Blair's doctor to inquire about her pregnancy... she knew she had to act FAST - likely fake a miscarriage. Jesus Christ, Blair!  This leads me to the storyline that consistently disappoints and undermines the overall mood of the show. Just picture having these intense storylines - involving... family, breakups, betrayal, grief, mental illness, and manipulation... and then suddenly, you see Alex giving Mortimer a handjob in the Buchanan Palace restaurant amidst all these other powerful scenes. Some might argue that this is precisely why such moments are there - to dilute the drama and darkness... but the result is far from enjoyable. It turns the entire show into a circus. You can't expect me to be emotional in one scene and then witness Alex reaching into Mortimer's pants... without cringing. It's a bit too abrupt... too early. It ruins everything and makes me despise... despise the characters involved. It's pathetic.    Overall -  6.5/10 - it would be a perfect 10 if you removed Alex and Mortimer. But I can't do that and I've decided it's enough giving them (the writers) slack about this. It's annoying, not funny and needs to end. If this was Bold... I would have been tearing them to pieces... but just because they've given me so much good material... I've forgiven idiocy time and time again. I have nothing against handjobs (quite the contrary actually), but I can't see them in the midst of a man crying over a corpse and a mentally ill woman attacking someone with scissors.    Clip of the day Viki consoles grieving Bo.

    • And every show she leaves is so unstable it takes years to recover, if it recovers at all. Objectively I can say she has a good eye for the look of the shows she is producing, and she knows how to film drama and strive for good acting. I don’t really fault her casting when it comes to new talent, her FOJ’s sometimes fit and sometimes don't though. She also interferes with writers to the detriment of her shows, favors problematic men’s egos on set and gives way less respect to women performers. Her work is often thematically very dark, and misogynistic. Something happened to her a year or so into Guiding Light. The show starts to come unraveled, she basically forced out the writing team that had been bringing the show success. She starts manipulating things like focus groups to get what she wants, and starts building the shows around the men (Buzz as example) and weak women (Lucy). She took over OLTL and tried to fully direct the writing while producing the show. On GH her instincts were so disastrous that they forced Guza/Pratt on her and gave them Associate Producer titles for more money and some agency in the story. And even then, it took until the Brenda return to fully save her ass. And on top of that she is majorly responsible for the show losing Sarah Brown, Amber Tamblyn, Genie Francis, and not securing Vanessa for a longer stay. And now that we know Guza didn’t want to kill Alan off, her fingerprints are all over that one IMO. The only thing I respect about her outside some casting that Mark Teschner brought to her is that she recognized Erika Slezak was too important at OLTL and still too vital to put out to pasture as only the mother of Joey, Jessica, and Kevin, and hand wringing sister of Todd. Emmy’s aren’t everything. Y&R had been number one for decades and truthfully should have been dethroned multiple times but habit and name recogniztion count for something.
    • Meg Bennett wrote for Y&R while appearing as Julia.
    • Everytime Liam appears on Screen I’m like: oh wait.. hey. It’s Liam. He’s still there?“ Like i don‘t know what it is but I always forget that he’s still around lol
