This is Y&R nowadays. Finding myriad of small ways to suck the drama out of everything, even when they have actually come up with something super dramatic to show us.
We rightfully rag on JG but it is really the entire backstage managing team that is subpar.

That moment should have sent chills down your spine, even if you never saw Susan Walters on the show. It’s as much a writing fail as it is a production one. It may as well have been Chelsea walking into Crimson Lights at the end of the show. That’s how dull it was.

People disagreed with me when I intimated that, in spoiling the surprise, would diminish the impact but had it not been revealed ahead of time, at least they would have had the surprise element for an episode, if nothing else.

I was able to avoid the spoilers and was surprised by Diane’s return (I love Susan! Happy she’s back!) but I agree that the re-introduction was lame, especially from a production standpoint.  Even Victoria finding out about Ashland wasn’t dramatic.  The episode writing and production values are so lifeless.

I suspected Dylan’s post in the spolier forum was about Jack’s mystery texter, so on didn’t read that thread.  Luckily, nobody talked about it in this thread, except for that one post that at least used a spoiler tag, and nobody replied to it so that was nice to see.  And good thing @Erroldidn’t write a news article about her return.

Had no idea that this was going to happen, especially given that we saw Diane die (even though it's a soap lol). Ill take the OG Diane back as her cousin her something too, but thats me being greedy!

I know this storyline will be DULL, what a shame, great to see Susan again.

LMAO I predict by this time in two weeks we’ll be seeing Billy & Victoria Part 112 start to occur. Because everyone wants to see Khalil and Heinle go toe to toe because it’ll be so fierce!

Diane’s entrance, while nice to see her, definitely fell flat on its face. Sure Diane is not as recognizable as let’s say a Sheila Carter return but surely there should have been a lot more flair and at some dramatic cue. However we can’t have interesting things on Griffith & Morina’s Y&R can we?

    • 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.
    • Don't know if this exactly fits here, but it is connected: Does this abandoned building look familiar? It is one of those explorer videos - and the outside may look VERY familiar if one watched GH in the '70s and '80s!
