I continue to enjoy the chemistry between Sasha and Brando, even if I think that the drama of the story is very sloppy and contrived. Also, is Sofia Mattson pregnant IRL? They've been doing a lot of neck up close-ups and she's carrying around a huge purse.

I would have been down for ORK's Claire with Ben; but not this version.

If I'm not mistaken, Hope did legally adopt Douglas; so it would make sense for him to be with her at least half the time. Of course, if I were Thomas and I was still interested in Hope, I'd probably want Douglas staying with me so she was coming to me to see the kid.

This is used in reference to soap pregnancy storylines: a tick refers pregnancy that results in a live baby, while a tock is refers to a miscarriage or stillbirth.

This is exactly how I feel. I definitely think that it is way too soon for a Brasha baby; but I'd rather watch them in a baby storyline (kind of hoping that it's a tock, and just a device to bring them together) than Millow in anything.

Maybe Lucy knows that she lives in a soap opera; and that's how these stories usually go.

She didn't dump Eric for Daniel. She got with Daniel after Eric learned about her preventing him from rejoining the priesthood and was unable to forgive her. Later, Eric did forgive her and he wanted Nicole back; but she was already committed to Daniel at that point.

I can fanwank that Rex might be too embarrassed to reveal that "Sarah" left him. But that still doesn't explain how no one seems to be concerned about not hearing from Sarah.

I certainly am. Usually the woman faints and is rushed to the hospital before finding out that she's pregnant.

One thing that we have to remember is that primetime shows don't have the same time constraints that soaps do with recording so much in a short amount of time. In particular, I don't think that they typically get multiple takes. I've seen several soap actors off of soaps; and they usually look like much better actors when they have more breathing room.

I'm enjoying her performance too. She's keeping the essence of the character; but making it her own. Although, I actually like the brittle edge that MM brought to the role. Maybe CM can come back on as a cousin or something.

The one I'm the most over right now is Kristen. I need for this storyline to end quickly with her ending up dead and/or in a maximum security prison.

I think that it's gaslit. 😉

That child is Scott Grainger Jr. He was last on Y&R in 2018.

I definitely agree about Kevin and Evangeline. It would've been really soapy for them to get together during Kevin and Kelly's divorce proceedings, especially if she was representing Kelly at the time.

I don't recall scenes between Noah and Lola; but from seeing them separately, I actually think that they would probably be a great couple and be compatible (at least on paper).

I believe that they mainly interacted as rivals for Ciara's affections. (Didn't Tripp try to frame Ben for the fire that Claire set for Ciara?) I guess they can be friends now that Tripp is no longer hung up on her.

I could see it now: ORK Claire smarting over her relationship with Charlie, lashing out at Ben, telling him how much better Ciara is without him, mocking him for his "telepathic/metaphysical connection" with Ciara, and Ben giving it right back to her, all culminating in some crazy hate-sex!

Lola has definitely been a chem magnet. I think that she's had chemistry with everyone that they've tested her with (Kyle, Theo, Fen, Nate). I think that Elena needs to be retooled before she gets a new love interest because at this point, I don't trust her feelings for anyone. I mostly agree about AH's Victoria. Of all of the guys that I've seen her paired with I've only seen real chemistry with Billy Miller's Billy, JT, and Travis (who I think should be brought back for her).

Devon and Amanda have also kissed. My guess is that if both actors have been vaccinated (and are comfortable with it), they will have more intimate scenes.

I thought that it was Memphis, TN.

It would be so funny if while pretending to still want to be with Chase, she fell back in love with him for real! It would serve Michael right.

DG and GT did share scenes when she returned; and he was the one with whom she had the best chemistry. Unfortunately, TPTB didn't see fit to bring him back full-time.

I hate rape too.

Probably not; but at least they actually have chemistry, and Sasha is away from Milquetoast Millow.
