It isn’t a bad choice but I would have preferred something from the 80s or 90s obviously  

Same although we did get spoiled with two 1993 episodes already I suppose. This time period in 2003 was actually fantastic to watch. I remember the Nikki/Sharon rivalry being at its height over the preparation of this gala made more fun by a maturing Cassie keeping Sharon in check (I think Cassie had just met her bio dad) while bringing a date with her to the gala.

Any thoughts on this? I have to agree on Worst Triangle and Most Overused Plot, the rest are just meh to bizarre choices (Cameron as best return?🤢) for me:

So glad they singled out the WAY OVERUSED business plotlines. I'm SO TIRED of hearing about mergers, takeovers, CEOs, COOs, and people changing jobs. I could care less about any of these stories. The show needs to get out of the boardroom and back into the bedroom, so to speak. I mean, how many people are on the edge of their seat about who's going to work next at Chancellor-Winters, Newman, Jabot, etc etc? Anybody???

I agree about Tucker. In general, I like the character and the actor. I thought he had great chemistry with ED, but he's not well-defined. What does he really want and why???

I've loved the Claire/Eve story, too. I just wish they would have dragged it out for a few more story beats before revealing the truth. I would have liked Aunt Jordan to come to town first and watch her wiggle her way into GC society, and THEN turn everyone's lives upside down. Imagine if she had first befriended Nikki first, gained her trust, and THEN got her to fall off the wagon. It would have given CZ more to work with versus being a one-note villian.

November 10-15, they were filming little Christmas-season greetings/promos.
For example, B&B and Y&R did the above promo for French television.





As Mark G said on his IG story in November,
they filmed fun little promos for the holidays.

Seems they did this instead of storyline spoiler promos.

 

This one is in two parts, for Canadian viewers.
You can tell this was filmed in November.
(Camryn has since given birth).

The Danny and Cricket stuff is so good and tugs at my heartstrings. They are my fave Y&R couple and I appreciate that we’re getting an actual story and not some slapdash reunion.

I also like that Phyllis’ original psychotic persona has been restored. Stafford is great with the dead eyes and blank expression which make Phyllis look like a total sociopath. Only Kimberlin Brown does it better.

I also love that Vail Bloom is back as Heather. She and Chris Engen’s Adam were fire.

If only they would show 1981 Victor and Nikki’s first Christmas! Way more relevant than a 2003 episode…

Pardon me…? 😂 I must have blocked that one out. Wasn’t Nina supposed to be Raul’s mom before TC quit? Lauren is definitely supposed to be older than Nina!

Wait, what?? Was Raul going to be the 1986 baby??? Ronan?!

Wow! That would have been good! I do love Jeff Branson as Ronan though. 

Love seeing the two divas together.... CZ and MTS.

I LOL when Nick of all people called Nate a punk.

Really enjoyed today’s episode. For a second I thought Nikki had killed yet another person 😂

My fav part is when Nikki said to Jordan "Oh Shut Up." then she shoved her. Suddenly she wasn't drunk.😀

I did too.

There was a continuity issue during the December 8 episode. Most of the first-half was played during the evening hours, yet when the exterior shot of the Genoa City Athletic Club is shown, it is as bright as a summer's daylight. Messy.

Nikki didn’t even flinch when Jordan referred to Nick as her “idiot son”, which admittedly, made me giggle.

For the longest time, when I looked at ZS as Audra, I had the feeling that she reminded me of someone. Now I know who…Jocelyn Seagrave as Julie Camaletti on GL when she became embittered after Dylan dumped her when she got caught cheating on him with Hart Jessup.
