Next week is a short week and no holiday classics. I'll be getting a lot of stuff done in the two days without Y&R being on

PB 35th anniversary is November 27 but he's not getting a special episode that day it seems. Maybe his anniversary episode is the following week then.

The way these three men share the same women is so gross to me. Same with how much Jack and Victor loved sharing women. And Jack also has been with Sharon/Phyllis//Sally. All he needs is Chelsea and he’ll be one of the cool kids too.

That fuckin OCD story and the constant job changing is why I dropped the show over the summer. Honestly Sharon thinking she killed Heather and Ed Scott coming back to help with production is the only reason I started watching again.

Re-watching the reveal of the Newman Ranch, I couldn't help but realize the flashbacks (pre-HD especially) were much more shadowed and neutral in tone. So, while the refreshed production model (both pre-Edward J. Scott and post his return) is a return to form... it feels a bit off, still. And I tweaked it a bit.

So far, the highlight of this week has been MG. Daniel has been ON FIRE!!! Lighting into Sharon like a X-mas tree!!! Getting aggressive with Nick. The fury. Like mother, like son. I love it!!!

 

I do love how this all is slooowly coming out about Sharon to others. And like Nick, I want to shake her, too. But that said...I can't help, but feel that this is sooo typical 80s heroine. No benefit of the doubt and being selfless. And my ears perked up when Ward mentioned Sharon's KIDS. So is Mariah about to be roped into more of the story?

 

Yeah, I could care less about Billy outside of Jill. Has she left town? So I was over any scenes of him with Sally, Chelesa, and/or Adam. 

 

See, Diane? I told you you should have signed the papers and been sure there were no loopholes in the contract before firing Kyle. What ace does Victor have up his sleeves now? 

 

And just to be shady...I know we didn't just bring Elena back to be Giggly Heffa's nursemaid? Cuz...

Nope. 

 

Can't have that. Billy is the STAR.


RME.

Uh oh. I saw that look Chance gave when Kyle and Summer were talking. Chance, you are attractive AF. Don't get insecure that Kyle and Summer might get back together. But CF gave good acting today. And I was sorry to see him and Summer arguing. Not unexpected, but sad nonetheless.

 

Expected for sure, but annoying as heck...Billy trying to beg for his job at Jabot. And then making it all about him because Jack didn't want to tell him what's going on. BOY, BYE. I'm so over Billy and his whining and the fact that Victor won over him AGAIN. And I'm sorry Sally is saddled with him. 

 

Oh, lord, Giggly Heffa has awaken.

Hehe. It has been slower this week for sure. With the case of Sharon and Phyllis, I didn't mind that because it gives the aftermath of the car crash to gradually unfold. And that has been what I've been finding the most interesting this week.

 

I know what you mean...lol. I don't feel this has been a Sleeps Sweeps this year so yay for that!!! There has been a clear direction since Ed Scott has returned. And I liked that it appeared to show in the writing because for a couple of weeks there, Y&R was THE soap I looked forward to watching Day of the most. 

 

If I disliked anything this week, it's been too much Billy. lol. Saying that though, my mind immediately went to the idea of Billy vs Kyle Part 3 given they are both without jobs.

Yeah. I felt overall it was an okay week. But compared to last week, it was a less than. 

 

Outside of the aftermath of car crash and how it's shifting Sharon's storyline, it just felt like it was there. Back to that 'puzzle pieces' vibe...which I reserve for GH these days actually. lol. I can only assume that it's to build everything up again, but last week had such good momentum. 

 

I actually found Giggly Heffa to be a little toned down. At least on her tics. MS felt very controlled even as she was going off on Chance. Surprising me, I kinda liked it. 

 

I thought the Victor/Adam/Nick scene was interesting. I've been around for most of Adam being on the canvas outside of Justin Hartley's run so I find him being IDC about Sharon to ring false. It drove Chelesa cray cray in fact. So it was just odd. Nick was in character. And Victor was Victor-ing. hehe.

 

So disappointed Billy and Sally finally slept together. Sad for Sally at least. But I'll give JT this much...he looked good in his blue jeans. Just not here for Billy's pity party. And Adam seeing them as the cliffhanger to the week. Uh oh. 

 

Well, preview for next week looked good, focusing on stories I would be more interested in. 

Hehe. Well...GOOD.

    • Today reminded me as to why I’m a little disappointed in the name that the new Pope chose

      Luckily, EJ and Johnny, and pretty much every other character saved today’s episode.  I didn’t expect Javi to be the one to save Sarah though, and I don’t mind it at all, because if it means that Javi is finally going to get his own identity/character, away from his douchy bf, I’m all for it. Javi’s scenes would’ve been a lot better had it not been for him. EJ and Johnny were the best part of today. Their conversation hit a lot of important beats and I’m so looking forward to seeing them play out. And now that EJ knows that Johnny is going to work for Xander, that opens up another dynamic to their storyline and to the Kiriakis family storylines as well. Tying them all together could be really good. There are so many story possibilities that can come out of this. And I thought Carson Boatman did a pretty good job again too.  I also liked that Johnny was there to comfort Chanel after everything that happened with Sarah. They’re so good together. But I do have mixed feelings about Chanel possibly forgiving Johnny so quickly. Hopefully, the question that she asked him at the end of today leads to more conflict for the two of them.  And yeah, still no changes in Alex’s character lol 
    • Awesome, thanks so much for taking the time to grab the episode. I had a quick review of your rip because I was curious why it was 700MB and 30 minutes. The first 10 minutes of the episode is 3169 (opening credits at 5 minutes and again at 15 minutes). The full HD version of ep.3170 is on YouTube channel:

    • That's a name I haven't heard in a minute. Thanks! 
    • Well, since I'm still up unexpected past my growing-into-it bedtime. lol.   I finally got to rewatch Monday's. I even rewatched Friday's to take it all in. Now that we got the reveal and hit the climax of the SilkPress Sheila storyline, now we get to watch the aftermath and/or turns that come with its climax. So far, so good. Friday left us with three cliffhangers. And what I found surprising was how I felt about them over a rewatch.    I know some of you all felt a way about the dialogue during Kat vs Eva. I remember liking it more the first time around and it was nice for them to have these scenes to establish more of a frenemy vibe for them going forward. That still held up. But I found myself agreeing with you all about that dialogue. lol. Still, it was nice to have both of their POVs.   Second up was Silk Press Sheila vs the Duprees. And I was happy to get a brief spat with Dani in there. But the rest standouts for me was Anita and Martin. Haters can hate and given the tail end of the episode, I will agree to a fault, but Brandon has impressed and he was on fire on Monday and had great subtle work on Friday. And that subtle work made it all the better. Like I believe I said when I was watching...BC has a much better grip on his character and seems to be realizing what his tics are so has started to be able to know when to turn it up and when to dial it down. And for the most part (emphasis on most), he got that. Meanwhile, TT was giving fierceness, and I was here for every minute of it. Her reading SilkPress. Her being quip about it. Her 'BE STILL.' Ooooo she had a chokehold on me as Anita gave what I was expecting her to SilkPress. WORTH THE WAIT. I also loved Vernon's CHOOSE SILENCE. I wonder though if SilkPress will figure out Martin's condition from her observing Anita and Vernon with him.   And speaking of worth it...Oooo YES Nicole vs Ted was worth totally worth it. Oooooo I knew DD would nail it, and it was all so well done. The fight between the part of Nicole who is a therapist vs Nicole as a woman who wants to express how she feels. And being so angry. And how there would be moments when it would shoot out of her. And how she would restrain herself. But how she felt she should not be restrain. Just the levels of processing and layers. And DD played it all so well. I do wish Maurice gave just a little bit more, but overall, I thought he did a good job even if it was just Ted coming across as a deadbeat and not at all redeemable. And Kat being there for her mother was so beautiful.   Minority, but I love the montage though yes, it did run a little long. Given how the Duprees like to bond (and also as I mentioned from my own very recent family experiences), it did not seem out of place to me.     That said...let's see how the aftermath worked in today's episode. Overall. Cuz RC can be hit or miss. 
    • I wonder whose brilliant (

      ) idea it was to do an almost complete rip-off of the "who killed Tom King"-storyline. That's some quality style writing right there.....  
    • The show is done. It got canceled at the end of January. https://www.soapoperanetwork.com/2025/02/fox-first-run-cancels-dish-nation-person-place-or-thing-pictionary-759232
