Today was mostly a Body&Soul day, but surprisingly, it wasn’t bad. I’m guessing it wasn’t a Jamey episode

Welcome back, Nancy! 

Not exactly sure how they got Patrika Darbo back after that gross ass Craig storyline. I understand that a paycheck is a paycheck but… goddamn. But it’s still nice to see her. But I’m also not really sure about her trying to get Joy on Body&Soul.

And nice to see you again, Joy! It’s been a long time lol too soon to judge about her acting.

I don’t really mind Johnny or Chanel cheating but this was all so forced and contrived and poorly written and it didn’t need to be. This all could have happened much more organically and for a much better reason than Johnny suddenly being dumb and jealous. Chanel miscarrying their baby, perhaps? 

The Justin/Alex was kinda random but it was nice to see them bonding as father and son. Sonny is still Justin’s No. 1 son though

Johnny seems to be experiencing stress-induced paranoid hallucinations, and nobody (including his psychiatrist grandmother with a crazy twin sister) seems to notice.

I guess we're not supposed to think that Johnny is mentally ill, but it would seem to be the only explanation for his visions and his illogical suspicions. 

I mean, the signs are all there.  His hair is unkempt.  He has begun drinking in excess.  He is isolating from his wife.  A more talented writer might have used those symptoms as clues to a larger story.  But, I think this is just an ordinary love triangle.

I'm not suggesting that they are actually writing him as mentally ill.  I just mean that given his most recent symptoms after suppressing the trauma of his wife's miscarriage, one might question his sanity.

And rather than going the predicable triangle route, it might have been a bit more interesting, given his family history of mental illness. (his maternal Great-Aunt Samantha, his paternal half-aunt Kristen, etc…)

BTW - you can tell that I'm bored with an episode when I overthink it, looking for more intriguing angles.

    • 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.
