Didn't Vinny pull a Sheila with Hayes paternity test.... Within 2 weeks of JMW's return from leave, 'Finn' will never be mentioned again.

Who'll say it first? 'I knew in my heart Hayes was ours.' OR Bill: 'I knew he was a Spencer.'

Liam is a downer for Steffy - Bill, Carter, Rick all would be more interesting matches.

Even a Brooke/Bill/Steffy triangle, which would just be so messy and hilarious. In a strange way, it would get pretty much everyone on canvas involved in some manner.

Overhyped  again!

Glad the first guest said he didn't want another tiresome triangle with Liam.

Technically, he's correct.

"Changing forever" is emphasized by the latter word "forever" whereas "never be the same" means it won't be the same without Finn since "same" means nothing is changing.  So things are changing and the show won't be the same. If he said "change forever" it would imply Finn could never come back.

^^^ = me thinking to much about other people's words.

How can this be the twist that never been done on daytime before? Mother shoots and kills long-lost son while aiming at a woman - exactly what happened with Vivian and Stefan.

Maybe they scrapped the novel 'twist' after mapping it out. There's zero indication of something 'more' the way it's playing out on screen.

B&B of all soaps is the most literal - when something new is going to happen, they drop out-of-the blue hints during the 3-5 preceding episodes. I thought it might be Phoebe-related because her name has popped up a lot in odd ways after years of not mentioning her.

So Sheila shoots her son and daughter-in-law all because of a switched label that led to Brooke UNCHARACTERISTICALLY kissing a man who's not her husband. Wow. If Brooke had gotten in a car and killed someone or something else that led to truly harmful consequences to an innocent bystander, that would've made Sheila's motivation to keep it quiet somewhat plausible. But this?

 I am still trying to wrap my head around that one.

I guess we should be glad Casey isn't a doctor:

"I never said he was going to die, I just said he wasn't going to make it."

Or a teacher:

"I never said you failed the test, I just said you didn't pass."

Or a prison guard:

"I never said you have to stay in here forever. I just said you're never getting out."

    • 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.
