Really? I was thinking he was trying his best I suppose. The storyline is utter garbage, but how come Bill can't throw some shade right back at Katie? lol She's the one hanging out and conveying her emotional thoughts to a fickled fluzie. Hahaha! I love it though. If anything, I fear the almighty power of what's about to come out of that necklace of his.

I've probably said this before, but I hate that they've written Steffy as so afraid of Sheila. Even when the storyline first started, I didn't like it. Like Steffy, just beat the [!@#$%^&*] out of her

As for Thomas...

Yes, I know acting is subjective, but if I can have a reaction to what an actor is doing and not pick on them for their acting choices, then I would consider it a good/decent job. But yes, he is no ED, that is for sure. I thought he did a great job begging. Especially since Bill is not the type to beg. 

 

lol. at come out of the necklace

well...we can't all be Li.

Well you be shot and in a coma and then see your husband "murdered" in front of you, I think you'd be scared too 

all those hypocrite's, so Carter can have an affair with the boss' wife and keep his job? 

 

Brooke saying she tried with Thomas, uh when b*tch, all you've done is bad mouth him to anyone who'll listen

Gotcha. This summer I speculated that this *secret* could be useful to someone. It seems like an easy out of this mess. Seriously, the lunacy of Sheila shooting both over 'why did I drink?' C'mon.

The irony is that Steffy + Thomas then proceeded to work so hard to get Taylor/Ridge back together, when the easy solution would've been to have Steffy join Thomas and Sheila. But, I'll concede, the resulting storylines did boost B&B's ratings.

Agreed - the shift in tone and timing was bizarre. It would have made far more sense if they'd had a few scenes in the saccharine Christmas episode where Thomas was alone and miserable, Brooke was bitterly chatting to Hope, and Eric was conflicted about what to do. 

That said, I liked today's scenes and thought Matthew Atkinson did a good job, especially at the end when he managed to well up with tears.

LOL! Yes. Art, in general, is meant to be subjective. For me, I thought Don Diamont was trying to think of a childhood memory where he had a shiny JV Fooball or Spelling Bee trophy on his dresser and he accidentally knocked it over, broke it, and cried. 

I would say the combination of his performance and the L.A. police chase down had me on the bed laughing that I almost peed. 

I also enjoyed Thomas opening up his Christmas present - he didn't look too thrilled with his stuffed bear.

    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • 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.
