Jennifer Gareis posted on Instagram that she lost her home in the California wildfires. Considering how bad it is, I wouldn't be surprised if we hear about this from more soap stars. I really feel for them because I know how hard they have to work for what they have without getting paid like their primetime counterparts.

The *coup* is exactly the type of story that B&B could mine for months or years.

- Brooke as CEO reclaims her righteous place in FC and the industry as FC thrives.

- Eric + the Marone spawn decide to create a rival fashion house. Clarke or Sally join them.

- Rick returns to support Brooke and protect his legacy as a Forrester, but Eric dangles a different offer. 

- Thomas returns from Paris and must choose to whether to work for HFTF or FC2.

- Zende and recast RJ also have conflicts and choices. Same with Ivy and Electra.

- $B wakes up from whatever mints Poppy has been secretly feeding him and decides he wants to play puppetmaster with the fashionistas.

Am I the only one seeing this as a rare opportunity to reboot B&B in an exciting way? Reverting to pre-coop would be a dead-end.

I would add one thing. Its time Donna packs her bags and moves out of the mansion... She can be Brooke's housekeeping for all I care. It's time Sheila Carter finished what she started in 1992. It's the perfect moment to get her hooks back into Eric. He's alone, lost his company, his wifey Donna is a Logan... And Donna vs Sheila could be funny. 

Sheila should not be wasted with making pizzas and Deacon. I'm sorry. 

Just an idea. Probably will never happen.

Cameron Mathison lost his home today, too.

Tracey Bregman lost her main California home in a fire a few years ago.  She had just moved into her other residence in Nashville at the time, but was commuting to L.A. to film Y&R.

Tracey is now posting on her IG stories empathetic words for all caught in the current fires, as well as the latest updates on refuges for animals

Hollywood is burning, guys. I'm so distressed. I am praying for everyone on the show... that lives there... and all the other people and animals that are affected. This is so distressing. Please God stop this.

So disappointing. Especially after she slapped him and pushed Taylor. OG Brooke would have called a press conference and announced Ridge and Steffy gone from the company with no way back.

    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time.  I know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL.
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • 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.
