I'm surprised. Everything surrounding Heather's death appeared to have snatch up momentum because these last few episodes have been watchable. A case of given how Heather has been connected to the current canvas that it truly has a rippling effect over everything and the fact that Y&R keeps their vets and legacy characters around, it simply HITS. 

 

The only flaw that I see in the Sharon/Heather storyine gradually taking the A story lead was that all the drama with Kyle vs Audra has vanished. And also Lily/Victor appeared like it is about to be on hold for a bit.

 

And speaking of them...woooow. Lily and Victor scheming has been great to watch. Even Victor looked amused that Neil's little girl could be so crafty. And his look when Lily told him that Giggly Heffa has Lily's old job was PRICELESS. And like Victor, I am wondering how Lily is going to use Giggly Heffa to get her payback on Billy. 

 

Ironically, MS has been clocked in during the aftermath of Heather's death. I just teared up as she got Billy to come out of his latest A-hole mood to comfort her. I felt that. She's playing a mother's pain and not being able to help her son cope really resonated with me, surprising me. But Phyllis has been great in mom mode, handling Daniel with care, letting Summer know about the death, allowing Chance to be a son-in-law without being one, tearing into Sharon...which was justified for once.

 

Not that she has been alone. MG is doing a masterclass on hearing your lover die. And that scream in the apartment after letting Paul know...WOOOW. The actress playing Lucy got me when she shot off the couch and went into denial mode when Daniel told Lucy about Heather. And SC continued to be bringing her A-game as a woman spiraling even though it appears she has lost a lot of that clam, rational Sharon that came back after SC's anniversary episode. 

 

AT LAST!!!! And by at last I meant...CHANCE BEING BACK WHERE HE SHOULD BE!!! Aka as a cop. And oh look...just in time for a MURDER MYSTERY. Don't tell me I manifested this into the universe? lol. On a typical note, I didn't like the camera angle, but CF looked great in those blue jeans which was not at all sagging.

And just so I know I said it SHUT UP, BILLY!!! He has been so obnoxious this week. I would think punching him in the jaw would have humbled him, but NOPE!! And don't get me started on him trying to destroy Katie and Johnny's feelings for their grandfather...how would he feel if someone came for John Abbott? Exactly!!! And now he's treating workers at Chancellor (and I continue to love how NO ONE is acknowledging the name change. So does Victor hehe) like they are dirt? I was never so happy for Phyllis to get through to him by being a mother on the verge. That snapped him out of it and reminded us that he at least has a heart. Just so over him. 

 

And that Friday cliffhanger/coda of Sharon with the bloody rags. Well I was warned. But...well done.

Not to spoil you on anything yet but this week so far has actually been surprisingly good.

The Sharon insanity aside, we’ve have some great moments of Audra and Diane again this week, plus the latest Newman/Jabot feuding drama actually has depth to it and not just another pointless takeover tale. 

Back to Sharon, Sharon is completely batsh!t bonkers at the moment and not everything is at it seems. Hmm…

WTH was Nikki wearing ? Some sort of sparkly jacket that just looked weird as a daytime outfit.

EB in a chair seeming to read his lines off the table.

Only 5 sets in an hour show. So bored with seeing CL and GCAC. At least the director was smart enough to use tight shots so that the lack of customers at CL was less apparent.

So Nate tells Devon about his meeting with Amy, rather than actually showing it. There is some intrigue there but this is Josh so it will either lead nowhere or be something ridiculous like Amy is Nate's mother.

Sean Dominic and Connor Floyd both eye candy. Bryton not so much.

Who cares about Abby/Devon wedding and the surprise venue?

Nikki MTS has been so poorly styled as of late I expect that to change soon with the latest news.

Re: Amy. Do not give JG any ridiculous implausible notions like that

Abby’s sole purpose these days is simply to remind everyone that she exists.
 

Knowing Abby’s track record she’ll probably forget to show up to her own wedding as she didn’t realize that it was happening that specific time and day.

    • The bit with the scarf reminds me of the fabled stuffed animal scene with Rick and Phillip. (That wasn't debunked, was it?)
    • Ohh, interesting. I instantly gravitated towards her in that episode. Of course I'm already hooked and want to know why she was trying to poison that older lady, but then how did the older lady know to switch the mugs so Susan drank her own poison...  but I have too many timelines I'm watching right now haha.  Oh, Bolger is definitely hot. I didn't realize he was on GL haha. I knew him from OLTL and other primetime stuff.
    • This is a effin shame. Eff Trump and eff the bastards that enable him.
    • I 100% agree but I think this is due to how the show is structured. It's a one family show which means there are no people in her age range that could be used as friends or contemporaries of her. The show definitely needs a second main family. I am glad someone finally said this. Especially now that the cast is gelling in their roles, he stands out like a sore thumb. No energy, no chemistry with anybody. He is just there.  I thought that was odd as well! The previous scene would've worked better as a tag for the credits.
    • That's the one and only Carrie Nye (Mrs. Dick Cavett) as Susan Piper, a deadly realtor. I don't want to spoil a lot if you ever want to see those episodes. She returns as another character in 2003. I think Grant has aged well and he always did a good job at being ripped without going too far, but he was never entirely my cup of tea either. I did think John Bolger was hot.
    • Totally agree. KKL looks great! It makes the Widge groveling so bizarre. Brooke needs to leave FC and with $B's/Liam's funding launch a rival fashion house with Hope, Rick, Katie and a secret designer. The best scenario is that Rick has been absent because he's been with very much alive C2, who is revealed on the runway as the secret designer. It'll never happen because B&B is comfortable just focusing on FC and the Forresters Marones v. Logans. But it'd been so much more interesting if the Spencers/Logans united.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
