I watched last week's episodes all in one sitting and it was so quick because I FFed through all their scenes. I wish they'd just leave because then I wouldn't fast forward anything on the show. 

And I fast forwarded this wedding of course but I think a small one was appropriate. They just had a huge wedding a year ago. No need to do another big one for them. 

For real. Ben/Ciara/Claire is bland, bland, bland. This quad is so much better. Tripp is the weak link here - he's not bad, he just doesn't have as much of a personality as the others. Chanel is a ton of fun and Johnny is super thirsty which is entertaining. I've always liked Allie and the actress who plays her. Tripp is... nice.

This could play out for a long time, like Spencer/Trina/Cam/Joss on GH. Both quads have so much potential and so much story possibilities based on the characters themselves, rather than something outlandish. There's nothing more you can do with Ben and Ciara, except for finally giving them Baby Bo 

And on the plus side, even the weakest person in each quad (Tripp/Joss) is watchable and a good actor. 

I think VK's return is still only temporary. Hopefully, Ben will go with her.

I mean, in reality, they'd all probably be hooking up with each other ... lol. You know Ron would love to have all four in bed together! (And yes, that's icky because Johnny and Allie are twins, but Ron will Ron)

I agree. I like Lucas Adams and Tripp is a good guy, and we always need one of those on the show. He's not the most exciting character in the quad but I don't mind him at all. I wouldn't mind if he had a bit more of an edge. I don't need him holding a knife to Kayla's throat again but have him do something besides be a doting boyfriend/uncle who's working hard to become a doctor. Good guy but not super interesting at the moment. 

I wouldn't mind all four of them ending up in bed together if not for the "twincest" factor, not that it would ever happen anyway lol.

And the trick had the nerve to laugh about it on top of it. It felt like such a dig to poor neutered Theo.

It made me sick. I am all for Cin leaving town living crappily ever after never to be seen or heard from again. But realistically, now that Ben has everything he wants, how long before he loses interest in Ciara and falls for someone else?

    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
    • I’m hoping to start getting to know Vernon better this month. He’s really only been a bunch of noble and good tropes so far. I don’t want him to be taken down the way Ted has been, but it seems he was a long-running Senator and no matter what party you are, lasting longer than twenty years means you’re looking out for you (and not who you’re supposed to be looking out for) most of all. I want to get to know both Vernon and Anita beyond their Dupree posturing. Clifton Davis can sleepwalk handling the kind of material Christopher Bernau and David Lewis handled and I’d like to see more than just a saint.
    • I thought Emily/Hal was a really interesting pairing. And I think KMH played that version of Emily very well! It might not have been what people wanted from Emily, and the writing got pretty gross at the end, but I thought she embodied that character effectively.
