I can't stand those low budget soaps. I've never been able to get into them.

It would be hilarious if HBS were defending Jordan on the show. She's going to need a lawyer. Of course they are going to use Kirk McColl.

Fyi there is some website out there that calls itself "soapoperamagazine.com" 
Back in September, when Billy Miller passed away, an article from that website was circulating saying he died from a neurological disorder.  At that time, I looked into the website, and discovered it had been around only since February 2023, and their content didn't look reputable. (They later removed that incorrect article and replaced it with the correct information via the statement from his mother).

That website no longer has an "about" page.
This is the "about page" they had on their site as of October 2023:
https://web.archive.org/web/20231014180126/https://soapoperamagazine.com/about-us/
That page gives biographies of three of their writers, which say that the writers are "a veteran soap columnist", "a respected soap columnist" and "a seasoned soap columnist".  Has anyone heard of those writers before?  There are many soap writers I'm unfamiliar with.

They have a sketchy article up now that has the title: "The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Aunt Jordan and Claire Caught and Cuffed"
-link-   which sounds like a headline but then if you click to read, it gives  *speculation* based on that Nov. 18 tweet from Christian Le Blanc that shows him with Hayley Erin and Colleen Zenk with a barred window in in the background. 
-link to tweet-    The headline makes it definitive but the writeup says it's speculation.  

I don't really care about any of that... there are many viewers who are speculating about CLB's tweet.   We are all trying to guess what might happen.

Colleen Zenk has been replying to or retweeting a few comments on her presence on Y&R.  She's appreciating that fans are welcoming her back to daytime.  

She retweeted somebody's post linking to that "soapoperamagazine.com" article.  Does Colleen know that
"soapoperamagazine.com" is not a well-known site? 
Or would it matter?  Maybe it's just fun for her to read the buzz about her being on Y&R, and not intended to be a serious endorsement of anything.

So many soap sites have popped up this year and you'd be surprised how most of them are owned by the same people. All they post are speculations, "spoilers," recaps and made up rumors. I guess it's good for the algorithms and money is being made. I just find it annoying.

I don't recall such a thing. Did it resonate with you? 

I don't see anything anywhere that makes me think Colleen is desperate about anything! Much less about the Guest Actor Emmy. It's been 13 years since she was a regular on ATWT & what I get out of what she's saying is how happy she is to be at work again. She's done some plays & she moved from NY to FL but this, a character, scripts, rehearsals, taping, it's gotta be her heart's desire!

    • Not me, I am having withdrawals, I need that soapy drama lol
    • I faintly remember the tv movie where Ted Danson played the lead.. my late mom liked the movie and she also read a few of the novels and enjoyed them.
    • Columbia is the U.S. release. CBS is the international release.

    • Paula and Jeanne’s first time writing Alex and Stephanie. It didn’t seem like there were any changes in Alex at all lol but I can’t help  but think that that’s more on RSW than the writing. I didn’t see a big change with Stephanie either, but I did enjoy her scenes with Kayla, whose character has gotten so much stronger since last week. I hope we get to see a lot more of their relationship, and their relationship with Steve as well. As for Steve and Shawn stealing the drug to try to save Bo, idk. I don’t dislike it, but I just don’t know lol but I also think that it is time for Steve to pass the torch on to the next hero.  And finally, Javi showed some kind of spark! I was a little worried in his first scene today that he was going to continue to be so obsessed with Leo, but him demanding that Leo drop the investigation into Rafe and Gabi could actually be pretty interesting. I don’t think that would’ve happened under Ron. And if we’re forced to endure Javi/Leo, let them at least have some kind of actual conflict, instead of the forced, biased crap that we were subjected to. And speaking of Leo, one year ago today, he got Dimitri’s letter

      Btw, why is Gabi so beholden to Javi? Cousin or not, if I was her, the minute he said to her, “If he goes, I go”, I would’ve been like  Also, are they going to go there with Philip and Gabi? I’d prefer that than Gabi getting involved with Alex. 
    • She does look good in blue. I wish they'd do more with her hair, change it up the way JMW does now and then 
    • Hahaha - this is hilarious (and a ton of wigs at use!). The closing shot!!! LOL
    • Yes. I don't know if Lenore was ever asked. Then it became a nun. Thanks. I didn't realize it was in 1987. That timeline doesn't make a lot of sense even if she would have had Ed to interact with. If they didn't ask her back in 1989 and she was willing, what a stupid error. The attempts at these feuds, or even the whole families tied together stuff like Maryanne Carruthers, never had any real impact because of how depleted the Bauers felt even by the mid '80s. And instead of expanding them, which would have been common sense, various producers were just too lazy, or too ashamed, and kept bringing on other families, or bringing in too many people at one time and not knowing how to write for them (the Spauldings in the McTavish era - as SOD said at the time, everyone in the family had the same personality).
    • Wasn't there talk of them bringing back Rita as Gus' mother at one point? Or something?
    • I think they are a part of the same family, although Carla was never really scheming for the same reasons, and once her double life was exposed, she stopped. 
    • Rachel/Ada, Mona/Erica, a mother/daughter at LOVING, these are all examples of the Agnes Nixon "troublesome daughter/put upon mother" trope. Are Carla/Sadie by any chance one of the pairs that make up this trope? Another thing that these 2 shows might have in common. OLTL had a very strong thematic approach to socioeconomic differences between groups of people. Class differences. AW at an earlier point had this too but to be clear it was not as much as OLTL. So that is a similarity but marginal.  Besides that, I see no other comparable things. Paul Rauch was a very different EP at different shows. Oh, I've thought of one more thing. Using actors from the Broadway stage.  But, realistically that was something all of the NY shows had in common. So I don't think it has any uniqueness between AW & OLTL.
