Absolutely! Nikki was kind of side eying Claire very briefly when they wanted her to move in, but she got over it in a flash. She should be terrified being in the same house as her.

 

I don't even think Summer is saying Claire can't be part of the family, she literally just doesn't want her to be Harrison's nanny which is completely rational.

100% to all of this!

The way Claire told Summer “she was better” wasn’t that person anymore reminded me of the days when Kevin was shoved down all throats and we were constantly reminded that he was a “good redeemed” person, not accountable for his past behavior

The less we speak of that man child, the better!

Im kind of wondering with Victor accepting Claire so quickly, maybe it’s less to do with how she was manipulated by Jordan and more so how maybe he sees himself in her?  Basically someone who goes to all the extremes to get what they want, though it hurts others. And someone who’s had a rotten upbringing such as Victor had? I don’t think JG is clever enough to go there without having to acknowledge everything Victor has done over the years, but that’s basically my theory?

Not to mention, it is a bit tacky to the 2-3 other people that they both have been married to in the last 40 years; like Sabrina and Dr. Lassiter.  And yet, any opportunity to see Nikki's humungous dress again is always appreciated.

“2-3 people…”

LOL a look at all their marriages, with some having dubious legality,  in the last 40 years:

Nikki: Victor 1984-88, Jack 1990-93, Josh Landers 1996-98, Victor 1998,  Victor 2002-08, David Chow 2008, Deacon 2012, Jack 2012, Victor 2013-present 

She also almost married Brad in 1996 and Paul in 2009

Victor: Nikki 1984-88, Leanna 1988-89, Ashley 1990-92, Hope 1994-1995/96ish, Diane 1997-98, Nikki 1998, Nikki 2002-08, Sabrina 2008, Ashley 2009, Diane 2011, Sharon x2 in 2012, and Nikki 2013-present

Victor almost sort of married Meggie McClain in 2010 

Did I miss any?

Despite the campiness of the three Ashleys ED continues to kill it along with the rest of the cast with the intervention of Ashley.

Abbott drama > Newman drama

BTW where is Abby in all of this?

Aww Audra in love I like how despite telling Sally she feels like she’s losing control, she’s actually completely in control still lol. And unlike that 1:30PM soap, I like how Audra isn’t being shamed for turning down Tucker’s proposal. 

Meant to comment on some of yesterday’s stuff…Summer still isn’t wrong about her distrust of Claire. I liked Cole & Victoria revisited the Neil history but shame we can’t have flashbacks, but the kiss was a nice touch. Lily vs Daniel/Heather could be interesting if JG wasn’t writing it.

Glad to hear this!

    • That was such a dark story. I never liked Swamp girl after that. And then the dating your cousin thing. I think wasn’t Max in a triangle with two of his cousins?
    • Thank you, @j swift.  I'm probably more sympathetic to Draper Scott than most audience members are -- even though I'm absolutely CRAZY about Ann Williams & her bizarre Margo Huntington character

      The more I watch these episodes -- and I've watched several of them a zillion times, I'm ashamed to admit -- you realize there's a WHOLE lot of passive-aggressive hostility brewing inside Margo Huntington about Draper.  She wants to take April AWAY from him and recreate the childhood that she never got to experience with April, because of the adoption 25 years ago.  Draper has sense enough to realize how heartless and vindictive Margo really is about other people's lives and their feelings, but he bites his tongue rather than poison his wife's mind about how horrible her mother really is.  And I admire him for that.  He's a sweet boy.   
    • Unfortunately, as the 90s wore on, Felicia started wearing as many gray and neutral tones as Giorgio Armani and Donna Karan could produce, and the shoulder pads deflated to a drop sleeve.
    • I think Dante is reacting how most parents would react. 
    • 5-2   Lord... At least the week started off well...I think. I don't know where to start.   Oh, yes, I do. It was mostly background noise to me. There was nothing to the majority of the characters that were on. Meaning, it was mostly characters that I didn't care for or I've gotten accustomed to just FF-ing through. Or just zoning out. Even the possibility that Michael and Lauren might have a story was just meh simply because we have done this dance before and Lauren was coming across like Michael was working for Sonny on GH the mob.   The biggest thing I really took away from last week was that the new costumer designer has stepped up her game again. It didn't bother me at all, but I wish there was some drama with this fashion. I liked Claire's outfit, LOVE Nikki's. And I continue to like brighter colors on Nick though I hated those pants. And I could go on about the clothes misses like Billy in that short sleeeve, but I digress.   The only things that held my interest...   THE SICKENING OF COLE. As soon as he started to cough, I went uh oh. I'm happy to see he might be getting a story. And I guess it shows how much history I have with the character that I care. But still...ugh.   ALL THINGS AUDRA. I admit that I was taken aback to see Victor with her at Crimson Lights. When was the last time he was there? I want to say recently with Kyle/Claire, but otherwise I still found the scene taking me aback. But I like her being soft with Kyle who actually came across annoyingly flirty for someone that hates Audra. I actually can't wait for him to eat crow. And since Audra is now being used to drive a wedge between Kyle and Claire, I have to talk about...   SUMMER'S EXIT. Mmmm...mixed feelings. It don't seem half as bad as others appear to see it. Yes, if I didn't have the context, it still seem odd that her part in the Kyle/Claire drama was barely touched on. And she interacted with everyone I felt she should interact with. But in the overall context...I still didn't mind the exit. Though it was abrupt.    I did like hearing that Noah and Allie are still together. And don't get me started on the offscreen Mariah drama. 
    • I'm sure old Reva/Josh fans saw the writing on the wall--and this was their pattern. They (or usually Josh) was so angry that they'd spend months yelling at each other, and then "boom", they were macking up on each other, regardless of who else they were entangled with. (This is the couple who slept together under HB's roof while Reva was married to him, after all.) "Always". *gag me*
    • I don't think we've seen the last of Erica Kane. That's something I will continue believing in. 
    • You are the best!!!! That is a remarkable talent, to not just summarize, but contextualize Draper's dilemma!  It is delightful to be able to think of that situation in a new way. - Thank you

          I was pondering Lee Godart's accent, because it was so dreamy.  It made me think he would've been perfectly cast as Victor Newman's brother on Y&R.  American's have a hard time distinguishing European accents.  And, good news, before I hit reply, I went and confirmed the actor is still alive.
    • Has anyone even told Gio that Sonny once shot Dante?
    • There are so many missed opportunities and story beats that could be played out on B&B. Hope was finally able to successfully move on from Liam, with Thomas, and what does Brad Bell do, he ruins it. Hope & Thomas, baggage and all, were really good together. Why Thomas is off the canvas is mind boggling, yet we have a terrible and completely useless character in Daphne still there, please make it make sense. I think Rick is needed on the show too. Have him come back and hook up with Taylor again. That would create some really good drama and cause Ridge & Brooke's heads to explode.  And for God's sake just recast RJ and bring Jack to the show as an adult to rip Brooke a new one for basically ignoring him all these years. But yeah, just my opinion
