    ??? She’s apparently willing to compete with Cricket over that wimp DANNY! If they think they can get us to believe that, competing with Ashley or Audra for Tucker should be an easy sell.

    Okay, valid point, I'll take that hit.

    Still though, Phyllis doesn't have decades of personal history invested with Tucker like she does with Danny. I don't see Phyllis putting up with extra messiness just to have sex with Tucker.

  2. What's extra amusing to me about Belle/Ashley's flowery bodycon dress is that Jennifer Hudson wore the same dress on her daytime talk show earlier this week. And not only did Worn on TV skip posting a photo of JHud wearing it, they haven't shown an outfit of hers since. The fashion gods must be hella pissed about that dress, lol.

    Hopefully it will be new day in GC today and everyone will have on different clothes.

    I'm kinda thinking Phyllis & Tuck make a much more interesting pair and he should let Audra go bye-bye .

    I agree. Phyllis seems more Tucker's speed to me. I guess Audra has been Tucker's business protégé but now she's little more than a source of ready sex. Phyllis would be zero percent likely ever to compete with Ashley for Tucker's attention though so he'd definitely need to sort that out once and for all.

    I thought this made sense. Sally is very supportive of Adam and his concerns for Connor. So she would think Audra should be understanding that Tucker wants to do anything possible to help his son.

    Yes, Sally would think that because she only has a surface understanding of Tucker's relationship with his adult son. For the most part, Tucker willfully caused his problems with Devon. IMO it's not really parallel to Adam's situation with Connor, who is a minor child struggling with mental troubles his parent may have inadvertently helped to cause via his upbringing. I think Audra gets the difference but Sally doesn't.

  4. Listen to Audra, Tucker. You may want to score points with Devon but he's already told you to fcuk off in advance. This would be a screw up you cannot afford.

    Loose lips sink ships, Abby. You may have given Daniel ammunition in his lawsuit against C-W, merely because you wanted to stay in his good graces. Daniel likely would've never found out how you voted at the board meeting.

    Saints be praised! Per Phyllis, Cricket and Danny are finally gone on his rock star(🙄) tour.

    Go ahead, Audra. Go to Paris without Tucker. Your threats clearly have no power over him. Maybe it's not smart to expect someone to choose you over their children.

    Why the heck was Jill complaining about being ambushed? That is exactly what she did when she handed Billy her power and authority without giving Lily and Devon a heads up.

    Uh, oh. Bet there's trouble coming between Dominic' parents. Abby sure got her panties in a twist over that sudden board vote. Whatever, Abs.

    It's a scary day when Phyllis is the voice of reason. She was giving her son real talk but Daniel was swimming too deep in self-entitlement to hear it.

    Phyllis and Tucker putting their heads together. Okay.

    Sally defending Tucker's position over Audra's was weird to me. She barely knows Tucker but she considers Audra a friend.

    Lily, you must know Abby will run straight to Daniel and tell him you're considering settling the lawsuit. Abby has proven neither she nor her mouth can be trusted.

    Is Nate finally making his move on Audra? Ehh, she's on the rebound though.

    How much did I enjoy Phyllis shoveling Devon's b.s. right back at him? THIS MUCH. And the little smirks between her and Tucker at the end? Icing on the cake, baby!

    No, they couldn't, Sally is taller than Audra and Audra's measurements are a tiny bit more zaftig than Sally's.

    Actually, they could. For example:

    I'm confident Sally could wear this shirt

    I'm also confident Audra could wear this cold-shouldered sweater

    idiot Abby

    Heh, Abby may not be the sharpest tool in the shed but IMO it's not her fault both her Abbott and Newman families leave her in the dark about issues which should concern her. Abby might notice a bit of offness with her mother's behavior and clothing but I doubt she'd immediately assume it was a serious mental break. I blame Jack and Traci for not keeping Abby in the loop.

  6. I think Belle & Alan would make a good-looking couple. Too bad she's not real and he knows it.

    Ditto comments upthread, I continue to like how well Sally and Audra connect as friends, especially since they have similar fashion styles. They could probably borrow some of each other's clothes.

    Meanwhile, IMO Belle has been working the hell out of her dress. 👀 I don't think even Phyllis or Sally could pull off bright, flowery bodycon.

    Interesting how much Lily has come to rely on Nate as a corporate sounding board given his past betrayal of his cousins. Plus he's become the de facto Aunt Mamie wrangler.

    Alan seems not very helpful as far as Ashley is concerned, but wouldn’t it be wonderful if he fell hard for Tracey?

    Yes! I've been wondering if Traci has been subtly using their mutual concern about Ashley to flirt with Alan. She and Ashley haven't pursued the same man since Brad Carlton and it could get messy.

    Audra talking about her art must be how they are linking her with Noah from long ago.

    Maybe the show is setting up Noah's return to GC. Audra could use an alternative to Tucker since he's stringing her along.

    she should tell him to communicate through her legal team or next time he barges in she'll call security and also file a restraining order which won't look good for him in court.

    Right? Daniel is just like his mommy. He thinks the rules everyone else has to obey don't apply to him. Lily probably still has residual feelings for Daniel but she needs to stop letting him work that against her.

  8. Billy already fcuking up in new his big shot role at C-W. This is my surprised face.

    Look at Audra stepping to Devon on Tucker's behalf. For a second, Devon wasn't sure how to act, lol.

    Tucker, my guy, unfortunately I gotta tell you the same thing I told Adam yesterday: ease up on the manspreading. Ain't nobody trying to stare at your crotch except Audra and maybe Ashley.

    Dang, does Devon wants to sic Tucker on Billy? I love it. Let's go!

    Seems like Ashley bounces back and forth between Belle and Ms. Abbott now. It sounded like they were talking to each other inside her head today.

    Holy crap, could Devon be a bigger d!ck to Tucker? "I need your help but I'm not going to thank you for it. Drop dead." I wish Tucker would've walked away from that ungrateful POS.

    Sally, maybe you're not cut out to own your own business. Just sayin'.

    Not sure why Traci was talking to Belle as if she were talking to Ashley. She knows about the alters, right?

    And then Belle switched to Ms. Abbott right before Alan's eyes. Yikes.

    Lily's right, Billy is straight up undermining her authority over the C-W branch offices. AFAIC, it's time for the Winters crew to stomp Billy like the little nepo bug he is.

    Something tells me Tucker will go ahead and deal with Billy even though passive-aggressive Devon told him not to.

    Wait, Tucker lied to Audra about his meeting with Devon. Huh?

    Ash the teenage alter was back! Oy, Belle's outfit was not appropriate at all for Ash. Whatever, I just don't get why Ms. Abbott wants to kill Tucker.

  9. Daniel. Disrespect of Lily's time doesn't help your case.

    So Dominic apparently is big enough now to play on monkey bars, off-camera anyway. Invisible SORAS.

    Today I thought Alan sort of resembled Ernest Hemingway. Anyhoo, he had already told Tucker he wasn't licensed to practice therapy any more. Did Tucker deliberately "forget"?

    When Abby and Devon were talking she sounded to me like she'd already bought Billy's claim that Jill put him in charge of C-W. Hmm. Abbott family loyalty is strong.

    Lily told Daniel,  "Just because you want something it doesn't mean you're entitled to have it." That could be the theme of the whole show.

    Shut up, Daniel. You weren't thinking about Lily's lifelong friendship when you boinked Heather behind her back. No lovely Princess Luisa parting gifts for you.

    Audra sure spent a lot of time trying to reason with Belle about getting romantically involved with Alan. Not sure why she'd care.

    So was Alan blaming Tucker for Ashley's mental break? Ehhh. Ashley's been a whackadoodle for decades.

    Jill! You just took blindsiding to the next level. I take back every positive thing I've ever said about you.

    Huh, I didn't realize Tessa and Daniel hadn't officially met before. Chem test?

    By Jill's logic, the way to solve a traffic jam is to drop a nuke on it. Now Billy has Jill's power and control at C-W because Devon has been mean to him at work. WTAF?

    Interesting walk down memory lane through Tessa & Mariah's beginning history. But kind of an iffy effort to draw a parallel to Daniel's situation with Lily and Heather IMO.

    DEVON ASKED TUCKER FOR HELP!!! It must be the first sign of the Apocalypse.

    Condolences to all those who don't have a FF button and were forced to watch the OCD death watch for Connor.

    Heh, I think this storyline is a prime a example of what can go wrong when the head writer is allowed to inject his personal life into the show. Hope JG's child is okay with their father using their real life OCD struggles as soap opera fodder. (The "child" is an adult now and they weren't diagnosed until they were in their 20s.)

  12. Devon, I don't know about putting Mamie on the same level as Tucker wrt C-W. That's mainly in her head.

    Hey, it's Christine. And here comes Phyllis again, preening like a high schooler trying to compete with the head cheerleader to be the quarterback's date to the prom.

    FFS, Danny still hasn't left for his rock star (🙄) world tour. Kill. Me. Now.

    If it's Monday, Chelsea and Adam must be acting like they're suffering more than Connor. Poor kid.

    Whoa, ease up on the manspreading, Adam. Nobody wants a focused view of your crotch except Sally.

    Geez, Cricket, stop lowkey bragging to Phyllis about your private adult activities with Danny. You don't need to sink to her level. Or feed Danny's ego.

    Hey, it's Chloe. Meh. But kind of miraculous how she was willing to consider asking Adam to invest in her and Sally's interior design company.

    Chelsea and Adam, your lips were moving but all I heard was, "Meep, meep, meep." Which in human language means, "Emmy bait, Emmy bait, Emmy bait."

    Follow your instincts, Lily and Devon. You know what Billy is doing--effectively declaring himself in charge of C-W--smells like pure bovine excrement.

    My money is that Mamie's trying to teach her family a lesson and made a deal with the devil, aka Tucker. He waylaid Jill somehow and has her 'secured' for a spell on a nice private, comfortable island with no wifi or way to communicate with the outside world and sent an AI generated video of Jill to Billy telling him he was in charge and she was off on vacation. Billy *is* the type to not look too closely when someone is giving him power/exactly what he wants so he's falling right into whatever trap Mamie/Tucker set him up for. 

    I think Billy is lying. What I can't figure out is how he's sure no one can confirm his story directly with Jill, not even Devon. Every plane has to land eventually and sooner or later hers would be found. It's not like she's a head of state who'd have the ability to hide their movements.

  14. For a second I thought the victim was being played by Scarlett Johansson.

    You'd think the first suspect--the victim's boyfriend--would've put on a different kind of outfit afterward if he'd actually killed her. The detectives zoomed right in on his hoodie and baseball cap.

    The suspect Riiey and Shaw chased sure had energy. He was pretty arrogant after they caught him too, as if he was confident they couldn't make a solid case against him.

    Aw, were Price's widdle fee-fees hurt that Baxter opted to prosecute the case himself? He got almost teary-eyed.

    Why would the prosecution ask the dead victim's boyfriend to read the defendant's letter to her on the witness stand? That was macabre.

    I didn't realize Sam McMurray (he played the judge) was doing purely dramatic roles now.

    I hadn't seen that actress who played the defense attorney since she was on the Snowfall series playing a crack dealer's mother in 1980s L.A. Per her IMDb page this was her 5th role on L & O.

    Ditto comments upthread, that was an amazing argument between Price and Baxter. The actors worked well with each other. Maybe Tony Goldwyn's arrival gave Hugh Dancy a much-needed recharge.

    Baxter blatantly threatened the judge's job to his face! Those are the kind of high-level political maneuvers mere ADA Price can't pull to keep a case on track. (It also helps if you used to be POTUS, lol.)

  15. I too loved Ava's fuchsia wrap dress. She'd probably look good in all the solid jewel tones.

    Barbara really needs to stop violating people's personal boundaries. Unfortunately when she's called on her behavior she either hides behind Scripture or her age. Gregory likely doesn't have much if any experience interacting with older church ladies.

    Ava tried to game GoFundMe. Because of course she did.

    The PTA was drinking sake and eating sushi on school property during class hours. How was that legal? (The alcohol, not the food.)

    Barbara's family members put their hands on Greg in prayer. At the dinner table. Without asking permission. No freaking boundaries! And why was Melissa getting such a kick out of watching Greg try to deal with them politely?

    No way does Barbara not know a home run applies to baseball and not golf. No one is that clueless, especially in Philadelphia with their historic baseball team

    I was glad Gregory finally found the courage to be gently assertive with Barbara.

  16. Cold Open:
    SNL guys lowkey hitting on Marcello's mom. I could see it.
    Too many Tom Brady jokes.
    Kenan cosplaying Zendaya's stylist. Okay.

    Maya's Mother song was a bop. The cast seemed genuinely thrilled to have her back, even the ones who hadn't worked with her before.

    Maya as country Beyoncé!!!! Perfect timing. (And I know Beyoncé's new line of hair care products isn't cheap but $6k for coco butter? I doubt even the Beyhive would pay that much.)

    I don't do Instagram. What's the deal with Instagram Explore pages? That skit went right over my head.

    TSIDDAHN!

    Cave people with British accents. Bloody hot innit?

    Bet Maya came up with that sleepover fail sketch from personal experience.

    Of course, RFK Jr's brain worm. The SNL worm went in too. Loved the costume.
    Ozempic babies at the Met Gala. Good one, especially when one of the late night show hosts said it last week.
    Kinda low blow on the WNBA. Being imprisoned in Russia isn't really funny but I've heard some people have found Brittney Griner's new memoir hard to take seriously.
    I expected a harsher dig at Drake--or none at all. Kendrick has pretty much salted Drake's earth.

    Lanzetti's Lawn Care: loved all the accents. Shut up nerd!

    I'm looking forward to Jake Gyllenhaal hosting next week, with Sabrina Carpenter as the musical guest. Apparently the Swifties want Sabrina to work in a musical dig at Jake on Taylor's behalf. Because neither Taylor nor her fans can let it go.

  18. Gah, how long is this argument between Diane and Jack going to continue? They're saying the same things over and over and over.

    Harrison is so messy. He flitted around between Claire, Summer, and Phyllis like a little playboy. It's in his Abbott man genes, lol.

    Phyllis acting lowkey ominous as she introduced herself to Claire. Oh boy. Hope Red is ready to take on Victoria too, not that Claire would necessarily need the help.

    Jordan. I know you're desperate but what dirty work could Victor need you to do for him? Enough to put Nikki and the rest of his family back at risk? Nah.

    So Victor is making prisoner Jordan subsist on a 100% vodka diet. Gotta appreciate the symmetry of it compared to the vodka IV Jordan had Nikki on back in Oregon.

    Ha, ha, Vikki and Cole. You thought you were going to use Victor as your ace card to play against Summer. But Victor came back at you sideways due to his old and new animosities toward Jack. D'oh!

    Wait, what? Summer said she and Kyle had negotiated joint custody of Harrison. How is Summer more important than Harrison's biological mother?

    Phyllis trying to pull Diane onto the same side of the Claire situation. Guess she didn't count on Diane not wanting to be a jealous nutbag today.

    Be nice if someone asked Claire if she even wants to work at Newman Enterprises.

    Hmm, hope Victor isn't planning to sic Jordan on the Abbotts--or Jack in particular. Victoria said Victor was up to something and then the next shot was of Jordan. It felt like foreshadowing.

  19. After today's show I felt like JG is just working off a basic outline:

    Claire acts like the perfect doting daughter while Victoria treats Claire as if unicorns and rainbows fly out her butt.

    Diane reads Jack the riot act and he continues to insist that since things turned okay with the pills he took, mox nix.

    Jack is determined to make Victor see things his way on the rescuing Nikki front but Victor isn't having it. He assures Jack that if Jack doesn't back off the next time there will be serious consequences.

    Claire and Harrison periodically reignite their mutual joy in each other's company while not everyone looking on feels the danger-free love.

    Summer tries to explain her concerns about Claire being around Harrison to Phyllis or Kyle or whoever but she mostly seems borderline hysterical.

    Jordan ain't gone yet and Victor's chair in front of her wine cellar jail is still comfy for him.

    Wash, rinse, and repeat until the audience loses track of "normal" time because most of the characters don't change clothes for weeks.  😱

  21. Chancellor Park! Long time no see.

    It's a rough day when I have to agree with Victor. Jack's whole argument was that he may juggled a lit firecracker but hey, it didn't explode in his face so no harm, no foul. Flipping idiot.

    And then dummkopf Kyle parroted Jack's defensive "it's all good now" position. Yoda says, "The force stupidity is strong with this one."

    Phyllis defending Claire to Summer was also goofy IMO. At best I would've expected her to remain non-committal. At worst she would've supported Summer's view that Claire is permanently suspect.

    Summer, your continuing to call Harrison YOUR son makes ME sick. Shut. Up!

    Uh, oh, Kyle's gonna be in big trouble with Summer. She'll probably ban Harrison from going to Chancellor Park now since Claire might be there.

    Sure, Vikki, Claire is family. So is Adam. What's this "can't we all just get along stuff"? Hypocrisy, thy name is Victoria Newman.

    Be careful what you wish for, Jordan. The fact that Victor hasn't killed you likely means he has something worse in store.
