At a bar, serving drinks?  (just kidding, I'm not a stickler for realism in Salem)

Speaking of which, whatever happened to Tate having to work at the Pub in order to pay back the damage at his boarding school?

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.

My StackTV 3 month discount has expired. Looking for an "alternative" way to watch DAYS until they offer another discount.  Please PM me if you have any suggestions.

    • 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.
    • 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.
