Steffy's reaction is absurd. Even more absurd than Thomas leaving for Paris, because Hope was not ready to say Yes. 

I mean... Finn was honest for once with her and that's her reaction? Good way to make your man lie to you from now on... which is sure going to lead to a fairytale - not.

I wish they had cast RB as Taylor's younger sister since B&B thrives on family, um, connections.

KKL and AN continued to kill it this week. KKL even brought out the tears. The writing for those scenes has been unusually good. I loved Brooke persistence - she never rationalized or excused Hope's behavior. It really rang true that Brooke doesn't want Hope to follow her path.

If Brooke refuses to defend Hope to Steffy, I'll be as shocked as Steffy and Taylor! I hope they go that route because it would be fresh take on the very tired Forrester v Logan drama.

OK. I'll be the first one to say it. I am just fresh from my viewing and let me tell you this. Rebecca's chemistry is with KKL. I was very surprised, but there WAS venom coming from both sides and that's a good sign. And the way KKL was looking at her, I loved it. KKL is a chemistry magnet, so that does really help... It's still not real Taylor, but at least it will be fun watching the confrontations between these two ladies. 

 

P.S And from the looks of it - this Taylor and Brooke will never be friends. And I'm kinda here for it.

I will say with a lot of shame in my heart, I will be looking forward to tomorrow. I kinda like the stern sinister Rebecca Taylor, it's about time someone rocks Brooke's life and makes her feel miserable! 

P.S 2 - Rebecca, Taylor or not Taylor, was kinda amazing today. I got goosebumps at times. I am going to love this girl.

Considering this was RB's like 4th or 5th episode, she really kicked butt.

RB owned those scenes like she'd been there for years. Yeah, it's going to take me a long time to accept her as *Taylor*, but if keeps rockin' scenes like today, she's a welcome addition.

Compare RB's performance to those really bad RJ/Luna scenes. Both actors were so off, it was painful.

Love, love, love Steffy witnessing that kiss! I thought she was going to throw-up right there. Guess what, Steffy? Luna is part of your perfect family.

I’m wondering now where is this Luna thing is going with Steffy being the one to see them kiss for a second time…Steffy says she is leaving town, wonder if Luna kidnaps her something.

I too liked RB’s performance as well today although I need to see more of this and where it goes before I can accept her as Taylor 3.0

I think she and KKL have potential to elevate the horrible scripts to a point where the show is watchable and dynamic again. At least I hope so. They have the chemistry! It works between them. Maybe that's why Bradley Bell decided to pick her. Still wrong though, but at least something works in this whole mess.

Lol, this is most definitely not what Thudster has planned but I just wondered if Steffys reaction to Luna/Bill was actual disgust or if she’s just measuring the “competition” of one of her old flames!

    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • 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.
