A milestone anniversary in Y&R history this month: June 8 marks 40 years since CBS moved Y&R to its current time slot 12:30 pm ET, where it would proceed to destroy everything in it's path.

 

Also a cast member celebrating a milestone birthday this month: Jordi Vilasuso turns 40 on June 15.

Is she Hilary/Amanda's sister? I could see it of she were.

 

I tried to watch about 20 minutes or so today and besides being bored, I can see what some of you who have been describing the dialogue as stilted really mean because the dialogue just lagged and I could see the actors trying to bring it to life.

Looks like Jack got his fair-haired grandson. AAPI Month misses Genoa City again.

I enjoyed seeing Imani and Nate meet today during their brief interaction. I saw chemistry there and I do think that they would make a gorgeous couple. I could see them fitting together better than him and Elena. Elena hasn't treated him that well IMO. Imani is so pretty, I love the way they style her. I know some of us have mentioned how poorly some of the women on B&B are dressed especially Zoe. They could take a page from Y&R and how they style Imani. That picture of her posted by Taboi in this thread was really nice and I love these other looks from her as well:

Very pretty lady and she's interesting. I think that the show did a good job of casting her as Amanda/Hilary's sister. I am interested in seeing more of her, and Amanda's family.

Yes, it's Imani, Hilary/Amanda's sister. They gave her a brief, but intriguing intro last year when Amanda went looking for her family. The actress has great chemistry with MM and I really wanted to see more of her since the writing was setting up that Imani was a force to be reckoned with as they laid groundwork for what seems to be going on with Amanda right now. I'm pretty behind.  But I was hoping she would show up again and thankfully someone mentioned that she would be back. XTR just posted some more pictures of her above. But they really do look like sisters. And I loved she was slllllowly introduced.

 

ETA: @xtr thank you for those pictures. She really has such presence in those pictures, too. I love it.

I agree that she really does have a great presence in those photos Taoboi. I hope she stays around. I also hope you get a chance to catch up or at least get the opportunity to see all of her/Amanda's family scenes.  I hope that people are still posting episodes online. In the past Canadian fans have done that. They also post scenes on Twitter too.

Nicki was so intrusive to poor Billy just because he wasn’t in a suit. It’s none of her business who Billy is moving in with. Good for him for not telling Victoria. It’s kind of none of her business either.
 

Lol at Kyle turning his back on Summer to tend to his new/old baby mama.

Summer is so dense she doesn’t get that she’s not needed. 
How old is Harrison? He may be able to forget Daddy Silver Fox and get to know Daddy Hair Product as his brand new forever daddy.

happens.

 

Plus, having just watched tomorrow’s episode, it’ll be ‘fun’ to play a game of ‘which one was sacrificed to make way’? Cryptic now, but I’ll make sense.

 

And finally, superficially, I’m nearly always taken aback by Imani’s beauty. Casting-wise, she and Hilamanda fit as siblings as well.

    • That was such a dark story. I never liked Swamp girl after that. And then the dating your cousin thing. I think wasn’t Max in a triangle with two of his cousins?
    • Thank you, @j swift.  I'm probably more sympathetic to Draper Scott than most audience members are -- even though I'm absolutely CRAZY about Ann Williams & her bizarre Margo Huntington character

      The more I watch these episodes -- and I've watched several of them a zillion times, I'm ashamed to admit -- you realize there's a WHOLE lot of passive-aggressive hostility brewing inside Margo Huntington about Draper.  She wants to take April AWAY from him and recreate the childhood that she never got to experience with April, because of the adoption 25 years ago.  Draper has sense enough to realize how heartless and vindictive Margo really is about other people's lives and their feelings, but he bites his tongue rather than poison his wife's mind about how horrible her mother really is.  And I admire him for that.  He's a sweet boy.   
    • Unfortunately, as the 90s wore on, Felicia started wearing as many gray and neutral tones as Giorgio Armani and Donna Karan could produce, and the shoulder pads deflated to a drop sleeve.
    • I think Dante is reacting how most parents would react. 
    • 5-2   Lord... At least the week started off well...I think. I don't know where to start.   Oh, yes, I do. It was mostly background noise to me. There was nothing to the majority of the characters that were on. Meaning, it was mostly characters that I didn't care for or I've gotten accustomed to just FF-ing through. Or just zoning out. Even the possibility that Michael and Lauren might have a story was just meh simply because we have done this dance before and Lauren was coming across like Michael was working for Sonny on GH the mob.   The biggest thing I really took away from last week was that the new costumer designer has stepped up her game again. It didn't bother me at all, but I wish there was some drama with this fashion. I liked Claire's outfit, LOVE Nikki's. And I continue to like brighter colors on Nick though I hated those pants. And I could go on about the clothes misses like Billy in that short sleeeve, but I digress.   The only things that held my interest...   THE SICKENING OF COLE. As soon as he started to cough, I went uh oh. I'm happy to see he might be getting a story. And I guess it shows how much history I have with the character that I care. But still...ugh.   ALL THINGS AUDRA. I admit that I was taken aback to see Victor with her at Crimson Lights. When was the last time he was there? I want to say recently with Kyle/Claire, but otherwise I still found the scene taking me aback. But I like her being soft with Kyle who actually came across annoyingly flirty for someone that hates Audra. I actually can't wait for him to eat crow. And since Audra is now being used to drive a wedge between Kyle and Claire, I have to talk about...   SUMMER'S EXIT. Mmmm...mixed feelings. It don't seem half as bad as others appear to see it. Yes, if I didn't have the context, it still seem odd that her part in the Kyle/Claire drama was barely touched on. And she interacted with everyone I felt she should interact with. But in the overall context...I still didn't mind the exit. Though it was abrupt.    I did like hearing that Noah and Allie are still together. And don't get me started on the offscreen Mariah drama. 
    • I'm sure old Reva/Josh fans saw the writing on the wall--and this was their pattern. They (or usually Josh) was so angry that they'd spend months yelling at each other, and then "boom", they were macking up on each other, regardless of who else they were entangled with. (This is the couple who slept together under HB's roof while Reva was married to him, after all.) "Always". *gag me*
    • I don't think we've seen the last of Erica Kane. That's something I will continue believing in. 
    • You are the best!!!! That is a remarkable talent, to not just summarize, but contextualize Draper's dilemma!  It is delightful to be able to think of that situation in a new way. - Thank you

          I was pondering Lee Godart's accent, because it was so dreamy.  It made me think he would've been perfectly cast as Victor Newman's brother on Y&R.  American's have a hard time distinguishing European accents.  And, good news, before I hit reply, I went and confirmed the actor is still alive.
    • Has anyone even told Gio that Sonny once shot Dante?
    • There are so many missed opportunities and story beats that could be played out on B&B. Hope was finally able to successfully move on from Liam, with Thomas, and what does Brad Bell do, he ruins it. Hope & Thomas, baggage and all, were really good together. Why Thomas is off the canvas is mind boggling, yet we have a terrible and completely useless character in Daphne still there, please make it make sense. I think Rick is needed on the show too. Have him come back and hook up with Taylor again. That would create some really good drama and cause Ridge & Brooke's heads to explode.  And for God's sake just recast RJ and bring Jack to the show as an adult to rip Brooke a new one for basically ignoring him all these years. But yeah, just my opinion
