Thanks for starting @Liberty City

 

Hahahaha I hate to spoil stuff some of folks behind, but I actually am loving the reveal that Lily has the upper hand in not only playing Billy but also revealing she’s one step ahead of Victor in the matter is icing on the cake. THIS is the Lily we always needed yet the show always diminished.

Poor Sharon…..but of course as she stated she didn’t get a chance to grieve Rey because there was no funeral…I blame Josh Griffith on that one Sharon lol, but still what a mess.

Why was Connor Floyd reduced to recurring again?? I’m jealous of Summer at least having the sexiest man on the canvas!

Coming into August and...

 

JACK, YOU...BETTTTTTTTTTTTTA....READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He dragged the hell out of Kyle and Audra and I was here for it. Don't mess with his dad's memory. lol.

 

And Michael Mealer must be getting ready for a shirtless scene because his guns in that striped shirt have been out and about and looking yummy. And I don't find him attractive outside of the pandemic weight he put on so he must be buffing up again. 

 

 

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS ERIC BRAEDEN!!!!!!!!!

What is it with the soaps having good cliffhangers on Thursday? First Kristina and the fall on GH and now the ending here with Sharon on her laptop, like me, and we both stopped and looked up to see Cameron Kristen. lol.

 

On the shallow note, @Soapsuds there's a waiter extra in some nice tight blue jeans that pops through throughout that you might like. And they FINALLY got Chance out of that suit and into his bday suit. In case, you like some CF.

I am finally starting to feel invested in the Sharon storyline. Those were good intervention scenes with Sharon, Mariah, Faith, and Nick. And SC finally came to work. So well done. And the ending with Cameron was also well done.

 

AL can read a phone book at this point and I will pay attention. Enjoyed the Summer/Daniel scene as well as sexy time for her and Chance.

 

Oh, Victor. What are you planning? lol. I enjoyed his scenes with Devon the other day (but I always enjoy when the show touch on their history). And Devon giving Lily a heads-up. And Lily actually being a step ahead of Victor. LILY?? I thought the twist of Lily being a double agent is unnecessary, but at least her and Devon are still on good terms and it's not a complete repeat of their last fallout. 

 

Billy can go sit in the corner. If I hear about that logo one more time...

Okay...credit where credit is due. Decent week.

 

MTS is a powerhouse, and EB is all kinds of win when Victor is Victor-ing. BUT when they are in sync? PERFECTION. That the target is BILLY...who continued to irk me all week is a bonus. And ooooh how I loved Victor/Nikki sticking it to him so bad. So bad he had to do that lame Billy move of scheduling an event. Y&R IS overdue an event and I would love for Billy to stage one and we see it ON SCREEN so Victor can steal the company AND Billy finds out about the Adam/Chelesa fling. Wishful thinking...???

 

And I feel I mentioned it, but I love we have a young story again. This show is the YOUNG and the Restless. I loved Daniel catching on to Lucy and how it parallels his history with Cassie. And I'm actually intrigued to see where it goes. Moreso because even Faith is picking up that she might not be treating Lucy nicely. But Faith...is human. Surprisingly relatable to me.

 

And is it me...or is Sharon and Daniel giving off some uncomfortable chemistry? I mean...would Sharon go there? Would Daniel? Meanwhile, FakeCameron's scenes with Sharon have been intriguing as well. And now they MIGHT be more than about Sharon's meds? Okay...what is it?

I love Eric Braeden, but I fail to see how he's carrying the show on his back.

All he does is move his kids and wife around to different executive positions while he takes over other companies and does mergers -- NONE of which is compelling television.

In real life, it would also be a terrible way to conduct business.

    • 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.
    • Don't know if this exactly fits here, but it is connected: Does this abandoned building look familiar? It is one of those explorer videos - and the outside may look VERY familiar if one watched GH in the '70s and '80s!
