I cannot wait until Diane's bitchiness blows up in her and Jack's faces.  Jack has been made into a complete moron, and treats Phyllis awfully, while Diane grins like a evil cat lol.  Kyle and Summer's love of Diane is sickening also, but more understandable since both were kids when Diane was in Genoa City before her faked death.

Yes to the first comment but Phyllis is awful and therefore deserves everything she gets.

And did my eyes deceive me, but when Phyll(in a hideous top that defies description) was chatting at the Dive Bar with Summer there were actually extras in the background!!

Will Sharon finally get some customers at CL?

Phyllis hasn't been awful RECENTLY!!  except for sleeping with Nick when she was with Billy.  Diane set her up for when Jack overheard and overreacted to what Phyllis told Diane about sleeping with Jack basically to piss Diane off, she said that because Diane kept after her, until she said that.  Jack acts like a mad little or teen boy. Kyle acts very similar but being in his 60's and having been involved with women like Phyllis, Diane, Nikki, Patty, should be wiser about Phyllis and Diane. 

CORRECTED my left out word Recently

If Christine reacted in the over the top way Phyllis does whenever she sees Diane (and Phyllis tried to murder her), she would say it's in the past and Christine needs to get over it. She acted that way in 2012 when they finally discovered she was responsible for the hit and run, but the statute of limitations had run out. Acting like it was so ridiculous that anyone still cared about that. Well bitch Diane framed you for that fire 20 years ago, get over it..

8-3

 

While I think it was a waste for Ashland to die, I have to admit that watching the fallout has not been boring. Actually, it's giving Chance something to do. And sorry he needed something to do that felt in character. Chance has for the most part been a do-gooder so I knew it was not the best idea for Victoria and Nick to rope him into their situation. Now if it leads to conflict with Abby (and ropes in Nina) that would be great. So it was nice to see some of what I am used to from Chance.

 

Oooooh how much I wanted to slap Giggly Heffa the other day. I cannot believe she is so selfish and insecure that she went off in the park over Diane with Harrison so nearby. If that is the overacting you all be talking about, she can keep that.

 

See...Imani DID vanish.

Disappointed, but good to see Devon vs Nate is still going on. Though right now, I'm Team Devon. Nate just overreacted. Then again, Devon overreacted a little bit the day before. It will be interesting to see where it goes while Imani is out of town.

 

On a trivial note...JM has been looking yummy in his suit pants as of late. And there was one camera angle on 8-1 that was one old school Y&R camera angle, and at the same time showed it ALL off. Clearly, someone else was liking him that day, too.  

 

Speaking of JM...I continue to wonder if they will go there with Nick and Sally.

It seems Robert Newman didn't waste any time after leaving YR either he is currently back on stage in Michigan which is like an hour and a half away from where he lives via a plane ride instead of the four/five one he took to LA. 

 

The thing is that Phyllis, Nikki, and Ashley are treating Diane like she is on par with Patty Williams or Mari Jo Mason. I'm like yes, she framed you for murder and set you up as an arsonist, but you all have done some outlandish things in your time as well. I hope Diane or Kyle get to mention some of Phyllis misdeeds to her face when you know what hits the fan.

Now hold up one minute!!!

 

Diane did not set Phyllis up for Jack to walk in on her marking her territory all in public. Phyllis did that alllllllll on her own. Diane did however take full adavantage of Phyllis being her own worst enemy though.

    • Loved Valerie Mahaffey as crazy as a box of frogs Sandy Cooper on Wings. 2025 needs to chill out already. May Ms. Mahaffey rest in peace.
    • She was great on there. And Wings. And so many shows. I don't feel like we get those character actors as much now.
    • Cady did have a southern accent as Dixie in her first few years playing the character... but it started to minimize the longer she played the character (which tracks because my aunt had a heavy southern accent when married my uncle and years living in the north has softened it quite a bit). Her initial stint playing Rosanna was partly due to mirroring the previous actress and eventually developing her own take on the character. And the thing about her take as Kelly on Y & R was that she was too sedate when she first took over playing the role (she was supposed to play a woman that had recently lost her child.. and trying to keep things together) and then went OTT crazy and didn't play it well.    And I don't care to remember her attempt at playing Jennifer on Days. I think this Pamela character is the first time she's playing a character from the start and I think she's like a kid at a candy store.  She's having so much fun trying different things... and I hope eventually she decides to settle on a more consistent character for Pamela (perhaps her love of accents is a character trait based on something traumatic that happened to her in the past maybe).
    • That's sad. I remember her mostly from ER and the shortlived, yet very funny, sitcom The Powers That Be.
    • As always loved seeing Ric with Liz. I hope the show forever keeps them in each others orbit even if it’s just platonic. I’m sure she’s going to cut him out when she finds out he’s blackmailing Alexis though. So darn.
    • I have to be honest I’m really struggling with this show. I love everything with Eva/Leslie/Ted/Nicole/Kat and enjoy Dani and Bill’s shenanigans (I’m on the Hayley needs to be recast train now tho), Chelsea is second to Kat as my favorite Dupree grandkid and I loved her coming out to her mom. The show was on a truly great run with the big Leslie and Eva reveal at Nicole and Ted’s anniversary party and the fall out has still been good even with the unnecessary Ted recast and them making Leslie kind of dumb by exposing herself too much unnecessarily. The real problem for me started when they rotated back to way too damn much screen time for Derek/Ashley/Andre (if anyone should have been up first for a recast it was these three IMO). They tried way too hard to drum up drama between Ashley and Derek and the actors were clearly fighting for their mediocre charisma less acting lives to make it work but none of it landed, just horrible. Naomi and Jacob and this weird homeless woman story are also BORING. I can see where its potentially going but IDGAF at all, my only hope for them is that they’re building a triangle with Naomi/Jacob/Kat because Jacob and Kat have stronger chemistry together than their current love interests (Eva is the only one who can make the awful Tomas work). Martin, his secret and still cringe worthy acting got kind of interesting with Bill dropping hints to Smitty but they completely lost me with that lil fakeout scene at the country club. The lame “teenagers” (air quotes because Samantha is no Bianca Lawson and never beating the black Andrea Zuckerman allegations) can get off my screen as well. Joey creeping on Vanessa is grossing me out at this point, I actually quite like Vanessa and Doug now but Joey falls totally flat as a villain and someone we’re supposed to buy Vanessa being enamored with. I’m glad they’ve finally set up something interesting for Vernon and Anita to do with this girl band reunion instead of Anita wringing her hands and telling us she feels darkness coming and Vernon giving a civil rights speech every episode but yeah… People who’ve posted with me for other shows know I’m not one for fast forwarding or hate watching either, if I find a majority of a show is not working I usually just quit but because of what this show represents for me as a Black male soap fan I really want to stick it out. Its just become a challenge lately. I saw Guza has left the building and I REALLY hope we hear about some more BTS changes. The additions of Tracy Thompson and Jamie Giddens don’t exactly inspire a lot of confidence from me tho. Honestly praying hard for a new EP to replace JHC, a lot of the stuff that annoyed about her PC and AMC runs has started to match up here. I’m giving the show through the Summer to rectify some things but IDK how long I can hold on tbh. Its been a struggle to even finish some of these episodes lately.
    • I agree. I liked the episode but it felt jarring to suddenly return to a bunch of plots that had been put on pause since the Nurses' Ball started. Although I did like Laura popping in at the end to tell Alexis that millions of dollars have suddenly disappeared from Ace's trust fund. One set of scenes that made me feel optimistic for the next few months were between Sofia Mattsson and Rory Gibson. While Rory has been good as a darker, colder Michael this week, I was worried that he might not have much range. But he really warmed up with Mattsson, and I thought that (for the first time) Michael and Sasha had some genuine chemistry.
    • Next week is going to be such a sad time... I just feel it based on what was shown today. I'm wondering if the whole John being bandaged thing being a throwback to how he first arrived on the show was a Ron C idea since it just seems as though this would be something he would come up with.  If so, it's good that Cwikly/Ford are in charge with the implementing of the idea instead of him. Just a delayed thought from the Ciara scenes earlier in the week, or last week.. and how she had an odd way of dressing/acting.  I chuckle because little Ciara did say that she admired and wanted to be just like Kristen when she grew up.  So the fact that her outfit choices are so odd/off beat and her manner is a bit OTT just fits.. especially since Eileen's Kristen had an odd sense of fashion and that frantic OTT undertone to her delivery. With that said, a part of me wonders how Eileen's Kristen would have handled the scenes being done this week in regards to John's situation.   
    • My god the smirking was back in full force today. He almost started smiling after Johnny mentioned he wouldn’t be there if EJ hadn’t raped Sami. I will say I did like seeing him with Dee as they’ve always had great chemistry.    They really are giving a lot of false hope with John getting better. I wish they hadn’t done that. Monday is going to be devastating. I really liked all the characters mixing and mingling today.  Nu-Rachel is still too sweet for me. Loved all the flashbacks. Everyone looked so young. Really enjoyed Brady’s scenes with John today.
