Members Broderick Posted December 26, 2022 Members Share Posted December 26, 2022 Bell could definitely go off the deep end sometimes with saccharine. Remember that terrible episode on the 4th of July when Victor had to "straighten out" that guy who didn't share Victor's belief that the USA is the "greatest country on earth"? Awful. Friday's (horrible) episode was evidently designed to be a "stand alone episode" that could air Friday the 23rd, even if a preemption threw off the schedule. There's one thing worse than being off a day, and Friday's show is the one thing worse! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted December 26, 2022 Members Share Posted December 26, 2022 Haha that’s the 4th of July 1991 episode! Please register in order to view this content yeah it’s a cringe moment for sure then to top it all off Brock starts singing his famous battle hymn. Didn’t Victor have a similar scene his very first 4th of July, 11 years earlier when he punched out someone for not sharing his beliefs on America as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted December 26, 2022 Members Share Posted December 26, 2022 (edited) Well I'm a Teriah fan so I loved the Friday 23rd episode! The only thing I hated about it was ... Tessa bought Mariah a romantic night at the Grand Phoenix (which is in the same building as the Glam Club) ... but Tessa wore striped pajamas, and Mariah slept in sweats. WTF? They should either have been wearing lingerie or nothing. The ladies were allowed to to dress up at the Glam club in the evening but then later that night it was ugly sleepwear. I guess The Idiots In Charge didn't want to broadcast lesbian lovemaking on Christmas Eve. Edited December 26, 2022 by janea4old 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted December 26, 2022 Members Share Posted December 26, 2022 This looks good considering how bad the Christmas episodes have been and Danny is MIA again. At least we got Diane and Traci today. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted December 26, 2022 Members Share Posted December 26, 2022 The show isn't off a day, there was no pre emption 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Broderick Posted December 26, 2022 Members Share Posted December 26, 2022 No, they're on schedule, but that seems to be why they do these "stand-alones", so they can air it on a specific date without any disruption, even if there is an unexpected preemption. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted December 27, 2022 Members Share Posted December 27, 2022 It's definitely a set that has elements of Brad's old house in it. And thank goodness for that - it was a beautiful set and consequently, Diane's hideout looks a helluva lot better than what we'd normally see in a new Y&R set. I tuned in as it's Christmas break and just like it is every time I dip into Y&R, the show feels like it's in a constant holding pattern. Aside from the Diane storyline, and the scenes between Tucker/Ashley and Ashley/Jack, the show feels incredibly stale. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted December 27, 2022 Members Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) The cabin was also used during the JT "murder". I believe Nikki, Phyliss, Sharon and Victoria were hiding there too from JT. Please register in order to view this content Diane, Ashley and Traci were the highlights of today's show. I've never really been a fan of PB Jack version. Tucker/TSJ was adorable today in the Santa hat and the bag of presents.

Members soapfan770 Posted December 27, 2022 Members Share Posted December 27, 2022 Ah, Danny & Cricket redux. The flashbacks were good, obviously the first one was from 1994 while I think the second one came from the 6/1/2012 episode. However sad to see Christine all alone moping around thinking about Danny…plus Christine follows Phyllis on Instagram…? The Daniel, Danny, and Phyllis scenes were a highlight and poignant. Meanwhile as @janea4oldmentioned in the spoiler forum, in case no one has watched today’s yet the Billy/Chelsea scenes are bizarre (unbreakable egg game?) and FF-worthy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted December 27, 2022 Members Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) Tues. Dec. 27 The scene of Christine seeing on her phone on instagram that Danny is back in town, and then she has flashbacks. Tues. Jan. 3 Danny and Christine Cricket finally connect in person. There's a spoiler clip for that on the Mystery (Danny) Return spoiler thread at this post: https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/61915-mystery-yr-return/?do=findComment&comment=1828079 Edited December 27, 2022 by janea4old 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Forever8 Posted December 27, 2022 Members Share Posted December 27, 2022 Hopefully Christine follows Danny and/or Daniel. I doubt she would ever follow Phyllis on social media. I love all the glares Danny gave Phyllis every time she opened her mouth. I wonder if they are going to say that Paul and Christine separated or divorced off-screen. We didn't need those Billy and Chelsea scenes, as once again he tries to do his best Deepak Chopra on her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OzFrog Posted December 27, 2022 Members Share Posted December 27, 2022 Ok, I was totally drawn in by this. Loving that Danny is back, and already interacting with so many other vets on the canvas. Ages ago, I came up with an alternative Danny return story, involving him coming back to Genoa City, and shocking everyone by telling them that he had married Patty offscreen (and she would come back on later). The amount of shockwaves it would cause right across the canvas would be insane… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted December 27, 2022 Members Share Posted December 27, 2022 Billy and Chelsea have to be the two dulliest characters on canvas. Chelsea shouldn't even be on the show anymore. Why are the writers so fascinated with her? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted December 27, 2022 Members Share Posted December 27, 2022 I don't care that Billy and Chelsea are dull characters, in that *ALL* the characters are dull right now. What upsets me greatly is that he was her rape victim and he said it was fun, and he's trying to help her. It's extremely offensive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
