Sounds right.  I thought it was 81 or 82, but I am not a Sam expert so I was just pulling dates out of air in my head lol.    I just remember it was ridiculous considering her con woman backstory of being married several times and coming to town at 22 or 23 lol.  But I guess that makes her almost 43 so I guess she is close to mid 40's I guess.

Am I the only one that thinks they (Frank) decided to take this Nikolas story this far because he needed someone (Ava/Maura) to prop up Roger’s character that was clearly not working out?  So we have to get rid of Nikolas to move her towards Austin?

Yes, but I also think it is interesting that they haven't tried to pair Austin and Carly, given the past chemistry of RH and LW.  I guess the failed Franco and Carly relationship spoiled the possibility of re-pairing the two actors.  However, I feel like Drew is a non-starter and lacks any of the moral ambiguity that has always attracted Carly.

I think whatever went down with MC was untenable so they had to write him out. The fact that that dovetailed with once again trying to put Roger over with a popular actress was just an unexpected boon for Frank.

The audience would revolt if they tried that a third time.

Yeah, they can't go back to that proverbial well too often.  But, I do not enjoy anything about Drew.  It makes me wish Carly would have a Kelly-from-90210-I-choose-me moment and just focus on work and being a maternal figure.

The answer is and always has been to put her back with Sean Kanan's A.J. That was the answer when he first came back, as well as when Howarth was taken from them the first time, they put them together for a few weeks to fill space and the sex scenes were scorching hot.

But Frank has killed off A.J. (again) and alienated Kanan so it won't happen any time soon.

I'm confused by why Esme is going to prison/the mental hospital if Heather confessed to being the Hook.  Was she tried and convicted for her scheme against Trina (or Ava)?  Because it feels like she was kept on Spoon Island rather than being convicted of a crime.  And now she's been exonerated.  So, she why isn't she free?

Because she drugged Trina, secretly recorded Cameron & Josslyn having sex, released the video to the entire PCU campus and drugged Oz Haggerty which put him in the hospital.  But you do have a valid point. She has not been tried and convicted of any of it.

Agreed about all the Austin and his cousin crap. 

As glad as I am that Nikolas was saved, this storyline’s been dead from the very beginning, long before they brought Ava into it. Please end it now. 

I completely forgot about the SEC crap too

    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time.  I know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL. I believe that's what I read in the recaps from the time as well. I meant, I couldn't quite believe that the audience wouldn't understand that a woman preparing to go to her engagement party  was raped. I know that on ATWT John raped Kim while they were married, resulting in Andy, but I think they shied away from calling that marital rape.
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • 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.
