I don't think there's anything humiliating or embarrassing about Sasha being the Q chef.  She seems to enjoy it.   I do agree it's a strange choice for the character though.  Working at the Metro Court seems like a good idea, but her leaving the canvas is also a good idea lol.

I would be fine with either at this point. I don't really see a point for Sasha to remain on this show at this rate. She can literally walk out the door tomorrow and I won't even blink an eye. The only reason why she's even working for the Qs is so that she could be in a boring romance with the equally useless Cody, (who honestly should not even be Mac's spawn in the first place, but I digress).

Go, Titan, go!!!!

 

Read them a$$$!!!!

 

And same. There would be more grace without the tea about how a certain person has been back AS CO-HW since May. But since we know THAT particular tea...roast that trick. lol.

 

I am sad to hear that we are back to not getting all the points of views for a storyline. And it sounds like the Heather storyline is now the A plot. Which makes me dread starting last week's episodes. I already said that this Heather storyline won't work without the strong backbone PM would have given it (with all points of view), but now...FORGETABOUTIT!!

 

 

Good to hear he is still in scenes with Anna. 

 

Well he definitely has had no scandals this year. Outside of being on the stage with Madonna.

 

Give me the experiment because it sounds like I'm going to roll my eyes versus the nuance, maturity, and sophistication in the dialogue that drew me in. 

 

I'll try my best because I've very much looking forward to the returns, but I feel like I might be hatewatching more than watching. But...if I can make it through slow weeks on Y&R, I'm sure I will be fine here. We'll see.

My rose today was Ali/Blaze for finally getting her butt in the chair beside Kristina's ICU bed.

My thorn goes to Willow for doing a 180, an about face, to give up her new career & go back to Nursing. This is given especially because I think she is doing it because she is afraid of temptation.

Sasha as the Q family chef never bothered me. The writing was & has continued to be solid.

However, discussing this reminds me I still so badly think this cast needs to be trimmed! 

Mention was made today of "the experiment" I might be more inclined to call it "The Miracle".

I have recently been told by someone who will not tell me what it is that he knows that there are 4 different versions of what happened behind the scenes & my version is one of them. I've got some things right, but not all. I find this maddening.

Yup and he was recently on the talk shows promoting the show. He was on The View recently which is on ABC.

They should've said Ricky Martin though instead of his character's name. I wasn't sure it was him they were referring to since I had forgotten Ricky's character's name on the show.

I don't mind when they occasionally mention Miguel as still being a star. Plenty of soaps have fictional characters go on to be major celebrities - Danny on Y&R, Erica Kane, Brenda, etc. Ricky happened to play Miguel who was a significant contract player BITD so I can see why they might see it as needing to do one or the other (unlike the Rick Springfield/Noah situation, where IIRC Springfield specifically stipulated that he would not perform musically as Noah and insisted on appearing as both in '13 or as Eli Love). I do have a problem with when it used to come up constantly back in the days of Sabrina or when it's just there to be cute.

Me too?  I swear I actually like Ricky Martin.  I think he's a very talented guy.  His GH work leaves a lot to be desired.  I don't care about the mention of his character, but I'd rather the show just say Ricky Martin instead of a character most of the audience barely knows and generally disliked if they do.

Lol. Ikr. I can understand being over the wink, winks myself. But I mean, the last time Miguel was mentioned, wasn't it to reveal he went on to be a successful singer so it's kinda true. 

 

But then again, it was probably said randomly and done in a way to be an eyeroll. 

 

And hopefully no flashback scenes.

    • That is one of the best insults I've heard in a long time.  I burst out laughing when Kat called Eva that.  LOL Their scenes, of course, were really good.  Colby and Ambyr have so much chemistry.  The only thing I'd change is Kat saying "you're dead to me."  That's a phrase usually said about someone you care about.  I would've preferred something like "You will never be my sister," or something similar to that.  Nice contrast at the end with both mothers/daughters:  Kat comforting/consoling her mother, and Eva being locked out by her mother.  Yeah, I wasn't a big of fan of the singing either, especially after your daughter's life has been destroyed.  What?  LOL
    • Trisha Mann-Grant, Ambyr Michelle, Sean Freeman are destined for bigger and better things. They need to move on as soon as their initial contracts are done.
    • Daphnée Duplaix and Trisha Mann-Grant on Instagram live, 5/5/2025 just concluded, saved here https://www.instagram.com/p/DJSsYb7PDv8/                
    • I really need to see Anita in a scene that isn't with a family member. In fact, I would have preferred that she would have gotten rid of the mob and had a one on one with Leslie to lay down the law with her.  I'm going to say it, Mike Manning has been completely lifeless on this show. Other than people's superficial fondness for him, I don't get what they see in him as an actor. I never saw him on DAYS though. The show had another really strange cut right before the opening credits where it looked like they almost cut off Nicole mid-sentence.  Kat/Eva are carrying this show on their backs. Lock them in for lifetime contracts, I beg.
    • There's a 1980 scene of Victor and Katherine in the Chancellor Estate living room where they went over a contract that would put Victor in charge of Chancellor Industries, but it was rewritten that Katherine brought Victor to Genoa City so he could run Chancellor Industries.
    • Put me in the minority in being happy about Cat not being Abby. After the two adult recasts played tag with the role, it's time for a few years of rest. I have a huge list of things I hate about RC's writing, but that choice was not one of them. 
    • Except she never worked there at all and barely even knew where the Chancellor Industries plant was located  In 1980, Kay attempted to install Derek Thurston (her third husband) in a position at Chancellor Industries.  The show introduced a character named George Packard who'd supposedly been running Chancellor since Phillip's demise in 1975.  (George Packard's storyline in 1980 was attempting to keep Derek Thurston from bankrupting the company.)   We didn't hear much of anything about Chancellor Industries for the next twenty-five years.  Then, at that point, we met Eliot Hampton (?) who'd been running the company for decades and had been embezzling from it.  Jill took it upon her herself to oust Eliot Hampton (?) and take control of the company.  That's when Kay became actively involved in the management of the company.  From 1974 till 2004 Kay Chancellor was strictly a hands-off owner.  It was downright absurd that the last ten years of life, she was written as this formidable businesswoman who'd always been involved in Chancellor Industries.  
    • Well, it's going to be something when he finds out the truth.  Agreed.  On that note, I can't until it all comes out. I find Lulu to be ridiculous. 
    • I almost posted this because that was my initial reaction too:  this is weird/cringe, to sing around a piano after such a huge family shattering bomb was dropped.  But I got over that and just enjoyed her voice, the song and the montage we saw as everyone's emotions in the aftermath were pouring out.
    • The Equalizer original series was not a big hit yet it became a movie franchise and got a reboot series. The Equalizer reboot lasted 5 seasons, so one season longer than the original series.
