All these mangia cake Caucasians butchering the pronunciation of nonno makes me want to die, as did the embarrassing moment when Paulina mentioned she used to hook up with 50 Cent. No. Absolutely not.

Looking on the brightside, TPTB could have easily had Javi bring Leo along, so small mercies and all that.

Now that Javi knows Leo fenced Alice's necklace, I keep going back to my question from last week.

Javi and Kerry really cared for each other.  They seem well suited, and his family liked him.  So, why is his job as LadyWhistleblower an offense worth breaking up over, while Leo selling Alice's necklace gets a pass?  Selling a stolen family heirloom seems much worse, considering Javi came to Salem coveting the heirloom that his mother left Rafe in her will.

Is it just me, or does Arnold seem to leave his brows natural, unlike Rafe who dyes them with black shoe polish?  Also, I wonder if they only have to pay the actor twice for playing two character if they both appear on-screen?  Maybe that's why we've only seen Arnold and Rafe together once?

Hadn't watched since last Monday. I skipped to yesterday's episode.

Fast forwarded all the Leo and Javi scenes.

The best part was Doug and Holly. I see more chemistry with them than with Holly and Tate.

Today's show was just awful. I couldn't finish it. It was that bad. I stopped watching 15 minutes into it.

So, I persist in hating everything Body & Soul. Not a shocker, I know. 

I also hate all things Leo Stark, again not even news but now Javi is pulled into that vortex.

I have always loved Little Rachel, demon spawn of the combination of Kristen & Brady's worst parts, combined. But, she's not been fun in this story - at all.

Big Rachel? Who could like that? She's awful!

And, I don't want to harp on it, but the set just looks like a random storeroom. 

Aremid? The Woman in White? Really? Where? Cause I am neither seeing it nor feeling it. 

It's as if the craptastic quality of B&S has spread to the other scenes in the show!!!

It really is an embarrassing throwback.

A question: Does Ava think her mother is dead? If not, why didn't she and Brady ask Rachel if they saw her -- or anyone -- at Aremid? (Yeah, I know -- they're terrible parents).

Yes!

It does take some getting used to

Probably the same reason why he got a pass for the constant sexual harassment and assault.  

Agreed.

And Tate has more chemistry with Sophia

JUST SO!!!! The creation of the NuAremid "set" if we're going to call it what it's not would appear to be something clever 4th graders could come up with, with only cardboard & some unmatched bed sheets. THAT'S IT, it's like kids creating a "fort" out of sheets & the dining room table. Are we gonna have s'mores later?

    • 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.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
