ADA is a little out there for the age but we saw her actually going to law school and she wasn't just instantly a lawyer.  My sister works in employment/employee defense so not nearly the same.   But wasn't Molly exceptionally bright and possibly skipped a few grades or something?  Idk, it doesn't bother me that much.  But I get it.  GH seems to be more realistic with their teen/young adult casting than in the past.  They aren't casting Vanessa Marcil and Antonio Sabato Jr as 16 year olds these days lol.

I take back EVERYTHING I said about Tabyana Ali’s interpretation of Trina. It was way too early for me to have made that initial assessment. She IS Trina now. Her talent and growing chemistry with her co-stars shines through.

I love that Trina said "the gallery is closed" after she read Esme for filth. Tabyana Ali is so so good.

All of the kids are minus Eden McCoy, who I think is just emulating all the obnoxious parts of Laure Wright's Carly (I hate Carly but LW is never bad) without any of the talent.

Well, darrrn!!

 

I've felt a way about the abruptness of some of the storyline directions, but this week has been intense. Which of course means awesome!!!

 

So Harmony killed Neil because he knew about Nina and Willow. WOW. And watching the domino effect of her coming undone has been awesome!!! Once Carly joined in, I knew it was just going to climax. And that didn't disappoint though I expect Carly to fight more. I would say that I'm sad this is when the recast came in, but she's done a pretty decent job and sounds like Alexis complete with mannerisms.

 

And Michael vs Sonny. WOW. That scene where Michael cut Sonny out of his life. AJ is somewhere grinning. Please let this feud goes on for a while. 

 

Hat Daddy? Well...mental health and the black community is a tricky topic to play with. So I'm curious to see what is done with it now. Especially if Hat Daddy is this mystery mob boss...which this show continues to tease by letting Dante discover that beat up henchman. 

 

Yas, Laura!! You stay butting into this mess with Esme and Nik.


Annnnnd YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSS to Rory and Trina bonding and Spencer seeing them and seeing green. FINALLY!!!

 

Even Sasha's pill use is gaining momentum, and nice merging with the Harmony storyline.

 

Looking forward to the Liz reveal. 

 

And I am so, so, SOOOOOOOOOO TIRED  of people interfering with Chase and Brooklyn kissing.

Ooooo...the girls have hate chemistry.

 

After signs of potential, nuTrina has settled in. And her list of characters she has chemistry with is growing. I have dreams of a Rory/Trina/Spencer triangle dancing in my head. She has good chemistry with both so I admit that I'm kinda leaning into Rory/Trina now. I guess in a perfect world that that would happen while Esme gets thrown in Cameron/Joss's direction once the unmasking of Esme is done. 

 

I am over this slimy reporter...so I guess the actor is doing a good job. I just hope they never try to pair him with Alexis.

 

Speaking of Alexis, everything connected to Harmony has been great throughout this week. But part of me watching this and all the concerned characters (Gladys, Carly, Michael, Brando, Bobbie by phone) talking, talking, talking...I just think...all of this over WILLOW??? I have more connection to Sasha's pain and her storyline...but Willow. Part of me is meh.

It must be working on me because I'm finding myself more interested in Willow.  And, giving more points to acting ability, vocal variety, more expressive face instead of one placid expression no matter what she was meant to be feeling. It's like suddenly she is engaged.

    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • 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.
