Oh, God...that's right. Sheila would be her grandmother. This has to be the "twist" because there is no long-term conflict with Jack being the father since he's not even on the show full-time.

Sheila/Luna scenes could be fun, but who knows if they'll even play that story beat.

It would be hilarious if the aftermath featured a bunch of scenes of Li getting increasingly mad when the various Forrester/Marrone/Logan's she explains the situation to can't understand what the fuss is about.

Is Poppy supposed to be much older than Finn on the show? I think the actors are the same age.

Making Finn Luna's father is gonna throw poor Poppy under the bus.

Did she drug him with the mints ?

How old was Finn at the time ?

Why would Finn be having sex with his "aunt " ?

Finn I'm sure would remember having sex with Poppy.

 

There is plenty of drama to mine from Jack being Luna's dad but we know Bradley doesn't care about character development and organic drama, it's just shock stunts and half assed non sensical plotting.

That's the only logical route left.

Jack didn't want blood drawn because it would show a familial tie to Lunacy's father. Jack hasn't been on enough to mine any real story. That's a real shame. Jack could've been involved with Taylee or Brooke. Finn does opens up a lot of drama on a lot of fronts.

All other potentials are eliminated:

- Ridge/Thorne/Nick: no because of RJ via Stephanie/Massimo; Eric: too gross

- $B has taken separate tests; Liam -lol

- Carter/Justin: obviously no;

- Deacon: could've been plausible, but they missed the boat on establishing anything with Poppy months ago.

Ooooo....go 'head, Brooke. Walked into Steffy's beachhouse looking like sin and if looks could kill, Taylee would be TOAST. 

 

Well, it doesn't look like I missed anything while my system was down. But I was shocked by the fact Tom ISN'T Luna's father. And it's NOT Bill, either. Then who is Luna's father then??? Because I'm sure it's not Jack. But still...Brad is pivoting Luna off, is he?

 

I was so annoyed at Taylee flaunting her relationship with Ridge in Brooke's face. And now Ridge hung up on Brooke, too? Well, fine. Brooke can do better ANYWAY.

If it's Ridge, they'll rewrite it so that Lunacy was *fantasizing* about RJ, but nothing ever happened. What a mess!

Re: FC takeover. The story would be far more interesting if RJ, Rick, Thomas, and, even Bridget were on canvas.

RJ truly torn between parents. Rick by Brooke's side, but also angling to swipe the company from Carter for himself! Thomas as HFTF, but is he really a spy and still in love with Hope? Bridget angry at her sister for stealing her father's company. There's no way Bridget would condone Hope stealing Eric's company. Bridget could finally reveal those repressed feelings about Brooke/Deacon. These four characters are canvas-ready with actors the fans know and mostly like. But what do I know?

I don't care who is the daddy of Luna. I don't care for Luna. I don't care for Will or Electra. All of this will not exist in a year. Why should I even care. That's one of the main problems of this show. What happens now, Bradley will re-write in a year again.

I tuned in today thinking what a telegraph.  Just get to the multiple personalities already.  Luna’s nutso characteristics fit with her being Sheila’s granddaughter - what lame lines when Luna said something like — I guess I had the drive to get a job at Forrester but who was that girl, feels like it wasn’t me?  Loll - she said something like that.  
 

I really wish he would write that Steffy doesn’t always win; have Carter have secretly figured out it’s Steffy behind it, he gets the contract and the perfume and tells Daphne to take a hike as Hope and Steffy look on as he busts Steffy and Daphne with Hope.  Have them both turn and laugh at Steffy and Daphne.

The show is up for renewal in the Spring (They didn’t get Y&R’s cushy surprise renewal through 2028 last year) so it’ll be interesting to see what CBS does this year. Really the only way for B&B to survive is for Thudley to pass on the reins.

    • 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 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.
