Why Gundaker isn’t the solo EP of this show puzzles me sometimes. 

I actually appreciate the fact Mamie is appearing regularly at the moment even on this story I really hope she just sticks around for good.

Jill hasn’t even seen her grandson yet thought it appears

But is there a need for Chance in the corporate world? It be more believable if Chance became out resident high end PI in Genoa City like Paul was before. As @Paul Raven would probably predict all we would end up seeing is Chance hold a Chancellor-Winters board meeting with Jill, Devon, Lily and Nate in Crimson Lights were they praise Chance for being the most successful and innovative newbie CEO ever.

Going back a few posts, Audra is still my favorite Y&R character at the moment. 

VB’s Heather is refreshing to have back but yeah without Paul her connections are pretty limited unless the show wanted to have Heather befriend Adam and/or Chance again.

Couple nitpicks, Daniel told Summer that Sally Spectra redecorated his apartment. I know Sally did NOT pick out that ugly green sofa from 1969 LOL. And while the show always has Nate wearing purple, did his leather blazer needed to have a lavender hume to it too?

YR feels like a high school class reunion show. Characters talking and catching up and talking about nothing.

Now that CZ is back.....My Christmas wish list would be Scott Bryce as a recast Paul and Melanie Smith as anyone at this point on the show with Gregg Marx as the new attorney in Genoa City.

Finally watched yesterday's episode and Can't believe I Am Saying this, But Could Claire actually be Eve Nicole Newman Howard, Victoria's Child with Cole that supposedly died a few days after birth back in 1998?

that kinda would Explain her fangirling Victoria the other day! The age is correct too, Hayley is slightly older than Eve would naturally be!

That's My doubt as well! Maybe she is related to Cole somehow? Can't know much with what has been provided so far! I also wonder if it was baby switch then? Did Cole Knew all along? Man if he did he deserves Jail! Victoria has maternity anxiety ever since that! the fact she miscarried at least 2 other babies doesn't help either!

Again, JG has a lot of the ingredients in places for a solid show. Family members like Mamie, Heather, and Danny back. Audra as a vixen JG doesn’t seem to be sacrificing as a short-term psycho. Jack finally getting an age-appropriate love interest and settling down. The Newmans getting something drastic to shake them out of their interminable PG-rated episode of Succession. MTS finally getting something to do. Potentially giving Victoria a grown daughter could be what she’s long needed. And CZ certainly can command the screen opposite EB and MTS (in the same way Alex Donnelley did years ago as Diane).

But we have zero evidence from his past work that he’ll make good on this potential.

Victoria has been pregnant 5 times I think.

Eve died in infancy.

Miscarried Brad's child.

Reed was a who's the daddy storyline. Brad was at one point thought to be the father. AH was pregnant IRL when Victoria was pregnant w/ Reed.

Miscarried Billy's child.

Katie was another who's the daddy storyline. Stitch was at one point thought to be the father.

With all the vodka and alcoholism references, is it possible Claire and Aunt Jordon have something to do with Nikki's past as an alcoholic?  Did Nikki ever kill anyone while driving drunk?  Or hurt anyone in some other way, during her heavy alcohol use?  Perhaps Claire and Aunt Jordan  are connected to Nikki through her addiction.  Who knows??

    • 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.
    • I thought Emily/Hal was a really interesting pairing. And I think KMH played that version of Emily very well! It might not have been what people wanted from Emily, and the writing got pretty gross at the end, but I thought she embodied that character effectively.
    • Don't know if this exactly fits here, but it is connected: Does this abandoned building look familiar? It is one of those explorer videos - and the outside may look VERY familiar if one watched GH in the '70s and '80s!

    • So, I have been in the hospital all week. I am close to being up to date on my soaps. Now I have to go to the Infusion Ctr daily to get IV antibiotics, for 6 weeks. I am frankly exhausted. A hospital is no place to be when you're sick. Hooked up to machines that go beep beep beep all day & night long. Someone wakes you up every hour on the hour for something, either to stick you with needles or to take your gosh-awful blood pressure for the umpteenth time. So, you don't get any sleep. Now I have a central line, upper right chest. After they "installed" it, I said, I am now Borg. They just stared at me. Apparently scifi is not general knowledge. What happened? I have an infection inside my big toe right foot & it burned the skin on my foot. The burned skin is already better. It was like a bad sunburn. The infection inside the toe is the issue. Oral antibiotics won't even get its attention. So, IV antibiotics plus time.

        As Salem bids farewell to John Black on Monday, the "Days" family and fans say a final goodbye to Drake Hogestyn.   From his time as a young man playing baseball in the minor leagues for the New York Yankees to his almost four-decade run as John Black, Drake always did his best. And, while becoming a soap opera icon, he spent almost 40 years at "Days" telling the best stories and taking the younger cast under his wing to make sure they would do their best as well. Thank you, Drake, for the legacy you have left for everyone at "Days." The impact you made on the cast, crew and fans will never be forgotten...and that's a fact.
    • I found an interview with Joseph Breen (Will Jeffries) where he mentions that Reva was put in a coma so Zimmer could go to Hollywood to do a pilot (OMG, if ONLY it had been picked up, LOL) and that Sonni and Josh and Will became a popular with the audience while she was out of commission.  If you want to read the whole thing: https://www.authorsden.com/visit/viewarticle.asp?id=47394 Breen was known for being very candid in interviews, I wish I could find more of them. I seem to recall he made a couple of snarky comments about Zimmer, implying she was not above acting like a diva. Sounded to me like he had a lot of respect for Forbes (who went on to have a very strong and varied career after GL). 
    • I was so confused why Devon was prying into Nicks love life and then it clicked and I remembered they’re brother-in-laws. Shows how little I pay attention to this show anymore. I was like uh? Do these two even know each other this well?
