Update:



In a soap she knows interview 

 Lauralee says a very vague spoiler. "There's something coming up that's so classic Phyllis. This one will remind you of back in the day. That's coming up in a few weeks. It's classic Phyllis."

 

Lauralee sounded enthused about it, Michael  Damian even seemed happy about it .   so any guesses as to what this Classic Phyllis moment will be ?

Speaking of...?  ENOUGH WITH THE DAMN WIGS.  It was bad enough when they had her running around looking like Tallulah Bankhead on a bender, but now she's looking like Janet Green!

Does Seth not know she was wearing a wig? It's so obvious.

When Colleen was taking the wig off and placing it in the dumpster...it gave me parody Carol Burnett Show vibes.

Playing catch up on the week….

OCD….? What was that PSA story about? Of all the things that could have been troubling Connor…What in the heck has Griffith been drinking lately???

So crazy Jordan is running around town offing people, literally starting fires, changing wigs and glasses left and right? Sigh. I mean I love Colleen but it also feels so aimless/pointless at this point as JG tries to milk this dry to the bone.  I feel like if JG had done this right we would have had a slow build with both Jordan & Claire, have them introduced, have Jordan secretly spike Nikki’s drinks like Meggie did all those years ago to get Nikki heavily drunk again etc. before the big May sweeps reveal/climax.

Looks like the throwback stuff with Phyllis/Danny/Christine is mercifully done for now. Couldn’t happen to a nice psychopath lol. And yes I agree WHY was Abby being nice to her?

Still think Chance should be launching his own PI business or private security firm with Summer “moonlighting” with him. 

Thursday’s episode has Ashley going bonkers again with her personality clearly splitting. ED’s facial expressions are perfect and Thursday’s ending gave me possessed Marlena disguised as Kristen vibes for real.

I just watched the intro of today's show with the CGI fire. At this point it's like shame on me for even watching this dreck. This is sad. Even sadder is that I'm almost impressed they did this instead of just saying it happened offscreen. I swear they should just transition to radio at this point.

3-1

 

And to think...the week started off so well with the writers focusing on Ashley/Tucker/Audra. Ashley has lost her ever-loving mind, but dare it if it did not keep my interest. It could just be that she stayed dragged Audra who is coming across so needy. lol.

 

Then Thursday came around and the tone was jarring as all get out. Nikki catching on to Jordan with Seth was good. And Claire continuing to both with Victoria and Cole. Otherwise I was just like...why? 

 

And Billy, Chelesa, Adam, and the plot device de jour is a HECK NO. I'm about ready to be sure to use my FF finger from here on out.

I am so over this Ashley crap. It's not Emmy reel material. And no, she's not knocking it out of the park. These are probably the easiest lines ED has ever had to utter. She sounds like an idiot on the daily now.

It's stupid and repetitious, never ending back and forth for her with Tucker, leading absofrickinlutely nowhere. Now they have her referencing to herself in her head. This has gone from dumb to dumber.

Any word on when ED is taking her next leave of absence? Soon, I hope.

    • 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.
    • 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.
