Glad jill is going to be seen in person. If Jess is commuting from Oregon, surely she would be happy to tape a few episodes at a time. Or is that what she is doing anyway-taping scenes to be placed in different episodes?

Of course Chris meets Teriah at CL. This whole adoption story could be good but occasional scenes at CL is not enough. Is their apartment still being shown?

 

Tucker/Diane/Jack/Phyllis/Nikki/Talia... and Jeremy

Monday Oct 17 US (already aired Friday Oct 14 Canada):
Jack meets with Tucker at a restaurant. Jack doesn't want Tucker bothering Ashley. As an aside, Jack asks Tucker about a rumor that Tucker's return is connected to Diane, but Tucker feigns surprise at such a suggestion. Just then, Diane walks into the restaurant and sees them. She joins them. Jack then asks Tucker and Diane together of them if they are connected.  Diane swears that her first sight of Tucker since her faked death... was when he arrived via helicopter at the Kyle/Summer vow renewal.  After Jack leaves the table, Diane and Tucker speak alone. Diane tells Tucker that she had arranged for Tucker and Ashley to meet, and they did, so therefore her part is done and her arrangement with Tucker is concluded, and he no longer controls Diane. But Tucker tells Diane the arrangement is not done yet.

a few tidbits on what's coming up for this story Oct 18-21:

Diane visits Jack's office and tries to shift the focus of Jack's doubts onto Phyllis. But Jack senses that Diane is not being transparent about her time in Los Angeles. Jack tells Diane he had tried trusting her but he no longer trusts her. Later, Diane encounters Phyllis, who tells her that the reporter Talia is going to research Diane's history with Tucker.  Diane realizes that she needs to get ahead of Phyllis. Therefore, Diane decides to go find Jack and tell him all about her connection with Tucker.

J.Griffith says that Diane's confession will impact everyone involved in this storyline. "Diane will stop at nothing to hold on to her new life."

Friday October 21: Passions actor James Hyde debuts as "Jeremy Stark", who shared a connection with Diane Jenkins during her time away from Genoa City.

Tucker/Chancellor-Winters/Audra
Monday Oct 17 US (already aired Friday Oct 14 Canada):
Tucker meets Audra at his Athletic Club suite.  She tells Tucker that Nate was the person giving away Chancellor-Winters intel.  This will impact Tucker's plans.  Nate's betrayal will cause the IPO to be delayed. Tucker realizes that there must be another company wanting to take over C-W.  Tucker wonders if Victoria is doing this and he asks Audra if Victoria would be as formidable an opponent as Victor.

Friday, October 21 - "Kyle and Summer enjoy a romantic getaway."

My thoughts...

I'd be excited for the Teriah storyline, if I thought the show would feature it more.  It seems like it comes up only once a month.  Meeting at Crimson Lights makes sense (in a way) for *them* because they live in the apartment upstairs above Crimson Lights.  But still, adoption requires sensitive privacy and Christine should have a law office where they meet her.

Tucker's and Diane's storylines have the potential to be a great umbrella story - if there were a decent writer.  But then Josh Griffith says "This confession will have major ramifications for all involved as Diane will stop at nothing to hold on to her new life." So because it's JG saying that, I tend to think it will end up as nothing. Sigh.

The Skyle picture made wonder, where is their romantic getaway?  The GCAC?  The Grand Phoenix? LOL.   It would be cool if it were the tropical locale where Nate and Elena had their romantic getaway.

Nick/Sally/Adam - Nick shouldn't have to say in the promo "we have great chemistry".  Let the viewers decide that. 
In Fri CDN/ Mon US, Nick and Sally decided to end it and they hug goodbye. but just as they are hugging, Summer walks in and sees the hug and senses that something's going on.  And obviously they don't really end it.

In Fri CDN/ Mon US, Nick confides in Sharon about his connection with Sally.  I'm glad Nick and Sharon are good friends and can talk about things.  I don't want a romantic reunion of Nick/Sharon.  But I want more for Sharon than dispensing advice at Crimson Lights. She has a psych degree and is a certified therapist. Right?  She should have a professional office and paying clients.  Or she should work at a charitable clinic with low-income clients. Whatever, she should have a workplace outside of the coffee shop.

Based on that pic, James Hyde might have made a better Tucker than TSJ
