Maybe back during the 12000th episode when Nina and Victoria briefly discussed their history with Cole and Ryan.

Finally Stafford did not giggle when Phyllis had a confrontation with Stark. About time 

Phyllis looks genuinely scared Haha

The first time Michelle Stafford has had to pull some real acting in what feels like FOREVER.

As Ashley leaves Society after Tucker tells her they were meant to be together, suddenly he switches from a pleasant smile to some sort of serious look. Is he playing her?

So did Ron Carlivati write the Chelsea/Billy scenes, I got shades of Days from those scenes, Billy basically saying he enjoyed the rape, grosssss, stop it writers, rapemances are NOT cute or fun

It's really disgusting. 

We wanted to fire Josh Griffith for being boring.

But Billy's lines today that "oh well I had a wild side back then so it was fine, and enjoyed it" ... THAT is a fireable offense for a modern writer, in my opinion.

What does that say to rape victims of any gender?

I've been watching here and there recently and there is a good set of characters still on. It's unfortunate how the stories are nonexistent or very slowly paced with nothing happening.

How incredibly hot did Mark Grossman look in bed shirtless the other day..... Lord he looked beautiful!

So they make repeated references to the extra security at Jabot, and then Stark is able to walk into the office, with a throwaway line about how he can be persuasive-ridiculous.

Meanwhile it is endlessly amusing to watch the two Society waitstaff  scurry about when there are NO customers.

And Sharon chats to fellow cast members while her one employee wipes tables as there are NO  customers.

I'm about ready to start a GoFund Me to raise the couple of thousand it would cost to hire some extras.

So does Chance even realize that Johnny is his cousin?  

I loved how he talked about Ryan today.  Y&R really needs Nina back with him if they are not going to play his connections to Genoa City.  There are many possiblities, Chloe, Daniel was a great friend, Billy is his Uncle, Jill?, Christine was like an Aunt.

 

Hadn’t watched today but was Billy raped by Chelsea? I don’t recall. The show was such a mess at the time I remember Billy in the cage in Myanmar with Victor gawking and then pregnant Chelsea coming to town with Anita, but I don’t remember how Chelsea got pregnant other it was written as a sleazy one night to which Chelsea was responsible for sending him to jail, but of course given that all was written Hogan Sheffer.

Tragic that his ghost still haunts this show today with all his bad decisions (Billy, Adam, Diane, Chelsea, Sharon)

Victor paid Chelsea to get Billy out of commission in Myanmar. She drugged and raped him.   He was unable to consent so it was legally rape.  Johnny was conceived by rape.

URGH! I was gonna ask about that scene too, I was expecting like "Oh Forget it" but that sounds soooooo gross

Also I got the shock of the week today realizing Melissa Claire Egan is Already 41! In my mind I honestly thought she was from 1989 and 33 yo

Hopefully it will turn out that's Billy in Denial, it would be nice to explore this side to him, a man's man who was quite the womanizer (Or The Town Slut as Chloe once said😅) have been Raped by Chelsea, the ramifications are numerous and could be incredible! Not to mention a chance of Bonding between Victor and Him, considering Tricia raped Vic years ago too

Thank you! I couldn’t remember how Victor played into it. Like I said the show was a big mess at the time and I’m pretty sure I remember MAB/Sheffer/Hamner significantly downplaying it to make it sound like Billy was in the wrong.

Christine was well written well her family was Writing the show! Nowadays Christine is a glorified day player who appears once in a While usually to deliver bad news, I Mean There's Paul, She has a Fling with Nick Once, She's Lauren's ex sis in law and they were friendly, She's Scott's Aunt, There's Nina, I hate when they ignore so many ties a character has

For people who've watched him on OLTL. Does TSJ appear bored yet?

I think he's been really fantastic as Tucker. Right now I don't really have many cast complaints, the issue is just the writing is so boring.
