Yes, indeedy, if something has finally penetrated that narcissistic outer candy shell of Mr. Stark, then it is about dadgummed time something, anything, got through to him, I mean, if there is any inside to him at all! Today for once it seemed like he has a gooey center capable of something like guilt! Who knew?! 

I wonder. If the baby always cries & fusses with Sloan & is a total cheery calm with Eric, it could be like the beating of a telltale heart, working on Sloan's guilt! 

I'm not sure I know what this means. 

Yes, these remarkable individual performances continue. Hitting it out of the ballpark! 

Really hard to see Clyde as a mastermind, as an uber-villain, instead it seems as if he is a poor pitiful wimp of a character. The only thing I can think of is maybe he is someone who functions very well in prison & pretty awful on the outside? Ya think? 

 

Do not know what any spoilers say, not that I am that averse or anything, just haven't happened upon them. 

Today's final scene, broke my heart. I guess we will see Nicole see her baby often. 

Now, what I've been thinking about is Christopher Dunn, Jamey Giddens & Dave Ryan writing daily scripts. Seems to me like Dave Ryan is doing a lion's share. I think his day's are pretty good, sound. Not as sure of Jamey. Nor of Chris Dunn. But, I do think someone has some plan in mind with them doing this & I appreciate their effort. Especially with them down 8 writers & only up 2.

The less responsibility Jamey has, the better. 

As for what I meant about Sloan's list scene, I think you'll understand when you watch.

And as for the spoiler about the baby name, it wasn't even mentioned today, but I think it's going to be next week. 

I left a hint in the "What are you listening to" thread

Yes, but I imagine Nicole won't use the names Mickey or Grace either...

  I bet she'll name him after a Carver.

Also, are we to assume that Melinda is using her own money to pay off the doctor?  If so, this leads back to the question of why is Melinda so invested in this adoption?

What Bee & I are referring to is that if you get behind, then the closing credits begin but very quickly stop & it moves on to the next day. Have you ever been behind to experience what we're talking about? I assure you that it is what happens if you watch from a behind point of view. Doesn't happen if one is watching timely. Does it make more sense to you now? 

Anyway, you can test it if you want to. Just pick any day last week, as long as the next day has played, and run it to the end & watch. You'll see.

I know what @Donna L. Bridges is talking about.  It actually happens with every peacock show.  If you get behind it will jump to the next episode without showing previews or credits.  Actually, it's pretty annoying when you watch any Bravo show even when you get to the last episode you can view they cut off the previews and move to another show you might like.

    • 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.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
