YR basically wants to be in it's own universe, they acknowledge Sally and her past in LA but that's about it. When it comes to Sheila etc it's ignored lol

BOLD seems open to doing what it can but can't do much if JG/YR don't GAF lol 

Interesting

I didn't know you had it in you. When do these episodes appear? Well it be Finn vs Hollis?

Tanner's acting has been so bland lately. I'm not sure if it's because he's bored with the repetitive material or not.

Yup but it's stupid not to take this opportunity to do so.

Sheila and Li were a nice surprise. Enjoyed their scenes. Hollis is so hot. But the episodes were ruined by Liam. Liam is such a mess of character. The writing is awful for him. The man he hated and divorced his wife because of a kiss... he now talks to him like nothing happen. His stalking of Steffy is sick and creepy.

Liam is why I stopped watching again. I hope the rumors of him being killed off are true. 

I'll probably watch the fashion show and then tune back out.

This is so odd but I haven't seen it this week and I at least would catch 5 minutes.  And I had kind of waited for the fashion show.  Meh.   The couple of times I saw the doctor delivering the news over and over and over about Eric's still mystery disease?  Or did they ever say what it even is?  Then the yawner of "he's dying".   God, we all are and dude is like 85 or 90.  Of course he's dying.  LOL.  Whether by a strange disease or other - we're ALL DYING but he's 85 or 90.  Meh.  I'm so callous.

Yeah, it’s mostly been that way with both shows, since Bill Bell died and his writers stepped down. I know Y&R has had B&B characters come over the past 15 plus years, but it’s always more for guest spots, and never really about any actual plot that connects both shows. 
 

Is Clifton saying Liam is becoming a villain or he would want to see Liam become one? Cause I’m not gonna lie I think he could pull off having Liam really embrace his dark side. I mean he’s basically been a villain all this time anyways.

I agree. I don't think Tracey Bregman has the power to dictate storylines.

 

Maybe you're callous, but you're also right. I'm already sick of that cough and the shot of blood on his handkerchief.

Even worse is seeing these "couture" designs he's creating in his living room. THIS is the best collection he's ever done? Those gowns could not be more generic.

Somehow I doubt that Tracey would hate the storyline that not only pretty much guaranteed her a spot on Y&R for life, but also produced scenes that rank right up there with Y&R's most iconic moments.

Now whether she wants to revisit it is an entirely different matter.

Shifting Liam to his dark side makes sense - he can't be the good guy anymore, especially with Dr. Feelgood on canvas. It's overdue. Plus, it'll give Brad the excuse to finally do Looke.

    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny or velvet or a textured fabric - I couldn't quite tell, but the jacket color was solid black) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...
