Yes, and it bothered the hell out of me. There's nothing wrong him having a friendship and sort of a weld between generations/storylines, but he really should have been with the 20's set. He could have tested with Abby, Summer or Ana or hell, even Scott or Noah! He could have been having drinks with Tessa and Mariah. Ravi could have come out and had a whole story about his parents not accepting him, and introduce a sister that really loves him and clicks with Kyle.

The dialogue between Chance, Abby, Devon, and Amanda was really atrocious. The whole thing reminded me of some cheesy afterschool specials from the late 80s or one of those cheesy “a very special” episodes NBC family sitcoms like the Hogan Family use to do the late 80’s/early 90’s. 
 

Other than the Traci scenes and Victor and Jack scenes, today was miserable as usual.

MS Phyllis giggling strangely over talking about Jack losing Luan was the worst part of the episode.

I know, and MO/Abby lives in Nashville but she gets plenty of screen time. Josh Griffith didn't write for Jill the last time he was head writer either. He see's older woman a grandmas.

Jill was front burner on this show for 4 decades but she can't even be a matriarch to her own family. ... not even part time....not even part-part time like they do with Monica on General Hospital. At lease GH gives her the respect of the lady of the Quartermaine mansion and  her seat on the board of General Hospital. 

Yet Jack & Victor, the powerful old men are front & center with their families.

The set-up was even bizarre. None of Chance or Abby's family even knows the child is sick, or even that Devon forced  them into a shared custody agreement and is referring to himself as the father now.

Both Abby & Chance are wealthy and could've paid for a hospital type set-up. Yet they make a point of Devon doing it for him and falling all over themselves with praise for him. It was all so phony, a very uncomfortable set-up given Devon was threatening to use Chance's PTSD and Abby's trip to Spain to destroy them in court if they didn't give him what he wanted. Despite their cutesy montage I felt no love in that room....only misery. The whole story line has been miserable clusterfuck for over a year.

I haven't commented about the lack of Jill since hearing about Jess' husband's cancer. I just think we should all be sending her good will and realize that she's struggling right now. The best support to give her until she announces her willingness to return in whatever capacity.  For now, Jill's pop-ins work for me.

It seems like they're painting that Keemo was in the wrong for not accepting Jack's invitation for a reconciliation while Jack is the wounded victim. In this case it should be Jack was in the wrong and had all these years to reach out to Keemo even hiring a PI to locate him.

    • The way this show handled Nikolas' shooting Hayden, Austin's murder, the long slow delay to getting rid of Cyrus, etc. we're likely to have it revealed in a year when Nina is 3 weeks away from leaving and has had minimal airtime.
    • Interesting. I love my Roku.  No, I don't know. Who? I mean Disney def does. I would think a number of parties have stocks.
    • Is he still spamming demands that they hire the campy chick from The Haves and Have Nots? Or whichever show it was. I don't think it's an either/or. I happen to think Dana, Dani, Eva, Nicole, Kat, etc. are all great. Certain folks aren't going to be some posters' favorites and that's fair enough. But I would argue most of those characters above (and several others) have caught on with a lot of the online audience. I've even warmed up to Martin!
    • We get it, you don't like this show or the actors. You've said that over and over again, Mr. Vanguard America/VDARE.
    • Lol at the WSB hot guy asking Joss if she was okay with betraying her friends.  Of course she is! Chase coming in hot at Dante was a choice. It's also quite hypocritical since Chase is lying to him about Dante's own child and making Lulu the bad guy.  Talk to the grown woman yourself Chase.  Don't make Dante do it. Lulu and Laura had some great scenes. The Rocco/Danny party is obvious an anvil for something happening and probably the Gio secret coming out. The Willow/Drew/Nina scenes were kind of anti-climatic?  I get why Nina chose this path as the way to get rid of Drew, but will anyone ever find out Drew was sleeping with Nina?  
    • I was reading the NYT article on Roku's purchase of FrndlyTV. As anyone who has read my posting knows, I think re-airing old soaps is an imprudent idea. However, I will admit that if large media companies are looking for more streaming content.  And, if advances in AI continue to make the digitization process faster and cheaper.  Those of you who want the owners of the IP to release anything in their vaults may have reason to be hopeful.  Because the makers of TV's want to get into streaming in order to encourage young people to get back in the habit of updating their TV devices every few years.  And, Roku's plan is market exclusive content, that you have to buy a Roku device to view.  And you-know-who has a ton of content to sell.
    • This was  the messiest hour of television I’ve seen since Kenya Moore asked “who is this hoe?”
    • details of the current Health Secretary RFK Jr's insane beliefs - Doesn't believe that germs cause illness; suggests HIV doesn't cause AIDS; suggests antidepressants are behind mass shootings; believes that vaccines are harmful; suggests chemicals in water are changing children's gender identities... and is quick to promote supplements to prevent and treat diseases, such as recently recommending vitamin A for measles and falsely claiming children who die from the viral infection are malnourished. https://arstechnica.com/health/2025/04/rfk-jr-s-anti-vaccine-stance-is-rooted-in-a-disbelief-in-germ-theory/

      I missed the reference at the time, but those DAYS writers really like jokey character names.
