Two things I noticed in those closing credits:

-I see TSJ is gone for good so I’m guessing he isn’t going to reappear at all 

-Brytni Sarpy finally off contract lol? @YRfan23

[YRfan23]

LOL, I don't even remember the last time we saw Elena?? I think June 18th, was the last we saw of Tucker?

[kalbir]

These spoilers are not doing anything for me. There's going to be a good amount of garbage time.

[soapfan770]

I think it was back in November when we last saw Elena during Chance getting shot again lol.

I figured TSJ was gone, but the show never gave an official airdate and some folks have asked if he’s supposed to air again but the story is clearly over and moved on unless he pops for Devon & Abby’s wedding or something. 
 

Agreed. The “uneasy sillinessgone amok” is obviously JG writing with Kent being “Executive in Charge”

Both Summer and Kyle need a spanking and a time out, and they are supposed to be the adults... I miss quiet Harrison, the new one is too chirpy. 

Storyline    F-

 

• Sharon deceives her family she is getting better and on track but as oddities occur and an uneasy silliness gone amok, Sharon’s sanity completes unravels! Can Nick save Sharon from her descent into lunacy?

More horrible writing from JG. Instead of just sending the couple off in search of Sharon's father or Sharon and Nick just getting back together, it's more "crazy". Ashley improves, now Sharon is unraveling. 

• Billy is in for the fight for both his personal and professional life as the battle for Abbott-Chancellor escalates while his relationships turn sour!
• Connor returns home but an unstable Chelsea becomes paranoid about the truth about her and Adam coming out.
• The truth will soon be revealed in a shocking manner, and Sally will become a force to be reckoned with! 

 

As I keep saying, Chelsea is redundant with Sally in town, and I couldn't care less. Free Sally from this bunch of idiots and pair her with a decent leading man.

 

• Victoria ponders both her personal and professional future as she makes her next moves. 

Snortoria's stories continue to mean nothing without Heather Tom.

 

I believe Sarpi disappeared from the credits the same week that Chance was dropped to recurring.

TSJ's departure was just "Bam" --  he's out.

Good to see you here though I’ve missed your posts like this!

This spoiler preview from Soap Opera News really makes you want to watch this show, doesn't it?

I think Judah Mackey does good with the material, but again, I haven't cared about Connor since the Dylan MacAvoy character appeared out of the ether and had a past with Chelsea...   Lucy is way too needy and Faith -- I miss Alyvia and could just imagine her kicking Cameron Kirsten in the nuts last year instead of all the weeping.!

[Paul Raven]

These previews are just sad.

Josh's focus on mental illness (Ashley, Chelsea, Billy, Connor and now Sharon again) are so poorly told and depressing.

Meanwhile sociopaths like Victor and Phyllis walk around with no consequences.

Then we have the awful business stories with constant takeovers.

Time for Griffith to go-way overdue actually.

Sharon Case interview about the bipolar storyline and the Cameron Kirsten hallucinations

Interestingly, the actresses Lily Brooks O'Briant (Lucy) and Alyvia Alyn Lind (ex-Faith) are friends/acquaintances in real life, and have friends in common.  Lily and Alyvia sometimes appear in one another's instagram pics.

[MichaelGL]

And JG never does a good job of explaining why these women are unraveling out of the blue. 

[slick jones]

He tries to backtrack and explain, but his stories always make the strongest women look pathetically weak.

Reylynn Caster is a decent actress, but her Faith is fairly tepid. Lily Brooks O'Briant has the talent, but JG's writing is forever the problem with Y&R.

At least there's a bit of Young in The Young and the Restless. Now they need an interesting story...

<cough> Glow by Jabot 2024... <cough> Picture Faith, Moses, Miriam, an aged Johnny,  Lucy and one of Mac's kids...

@janea4old that's cute that they are actually friends IRL. It's not their fault JG has never been good with youth stories on this show -- see Ali, Theo, Moses ...  all rough attempts and fails.

Tell me, how does JG keep his job? I mean, he is seriously bad.

The guy with the Stash is COOL!
