We’re never getting rid of JG are we… 🙄

Unfortunately Josh Griffith is going nowhere as long as Y&R remains #1 and within budget.

Having intriuing stories that would draw interest post-crossover was a good strategy for viewer retention. I would imagine that a B&B crossover will be considered now after this was so successful. With fashion and style oriented stories like Dani's career and ChelseaKat, it would be easy to have some sort of event where Forrester Creations could play a role.

Which is a real shame. JG couldn't even sync up his stories with BTG's...something I used to find annoying in comic book crossovers.

For sure. And I love this. Especially right now with B&B going back to the days of fashion showdowns with Forrester vs Logan. It's still building slowly, but not so slow that they couldn't do a crossover with BTG in the fall.

The irony that BTG and its loyal audience (an audience Y&R once cultivated for decades) may have helped further secure Josh Griffith's position is a lot to process.

Very. Sadly.

The ATWT porn story always sounded so sleazy. I never understood the reasoning behind something like that, especially given their hiring an Alison who seemed totally different from Jessica Dunphy and downright drab and mousy. (The late Marnie Schulenberg was actually great in a role as a savvy publicist on OLTL 2.0, but you'd never have known it from her dreary ATWT run.)

I think it was to titillate the audience. This was (I believe) shortly after Emily's own kind of accidental time as a pro. It set up Dusty as Alison's savior, saving Alison after Jennifer's death from complications after her addiction.

Although I thought it was Cane, not Daniel, but I didn't pay attention to the Y&R end of it. I think KMH was on Y&R for two episodes looking for Alison.

This was the scene I was referring to a few posts back, I forgot the part about only being able to afford Spectra knockoffs.

Y&R, January 2023 had a reference to Fenmore's store in Nashville, so the show does acknowledge Fenmore's stores in other cities. Wonder if there's a Femore's in the DMV area?

Leslie was toting around a hot pink Fenmore's bag at Mona's event on 6/9/26, so presumably yes.
