Two-handed "you suck," lol. But where are people driving that they feel safe arguing with other drivers on the freeway? In a lot of places that's likely to get you shot. For a few seconds into his first song I thought Lil Yachty was cast member Devon Walker and it was a skit. I didn't know Colin socializes with cannibal Armie Hammer. Yikes. That's not funny at all IMO. What was that thing on Lil Yachty's head during the second song? I got itchy just looking at it. Quinta ruled like the queen she is. She was torally game and the cast seemed to enjoy working with her. In fact, I think some of them were deferring to her a bit in the sketches. She needs to guest host a couple of times a year like John Mulaney so she can get a 5-timer jacket.

Omarosa. That might have been a passable reference 10 years ago. Why was Effie trying to steer Diana toward the TA? To keep her away from Tariq? Hmm, I kinda doubt the TA swings her way. But whatever, Diana complaining how much books cost was ridiculous to me. Her family is rich. Well Keke certainly knows how to show her appreciation. But screwing on company time on company property with one of the company heirs? That might not be a safe move for sista girl unless Braden falls in love with her. A dollar bill-shooter. Is that really a thing in strip clubs? Oh, Brayden, no! Not undermining your pal Tariq again. Why? Because he can? I could not understand why they would send Dru to kill that fitness coach dealer. He's textbook case of PTSD right now and could easily have botched the job. I kept confusing Whitman for Saxe in this episode.

Monet's hair. I liked the color better than the blonde she usually wears. Braden falling upward. Wonder how Tariq is going to mess that up. Diana getting rewarded for bad behavior. Tariq will mess that up too, unless Effie does it for him. So now we have a new queenpin. Wait until Noma and Monet meet. Catfight! Looks like Tariq's new professor Harper inherited the old one's odd wardrobe, at least while she's at work. Cousin brother. Mary J. looking at Lil Mo like, "Chile please. You're doing my act from 20 years ago." A whole warehouse of product. Tariq might have to call Tommy in Chicago for help moving all that, ha ha. Good start to the mid-season. But I'm still having some trouble sorting out who the new people are and how they fit in with the existing characters.

What a frustrating episode. Were we supposed to sympathize with Price because I sure wasn't feeling it. By the time it got to the point where the defense brought in an old photo of him publicly making out with the victim, I wanted to reach into the TV screen and smack Price upside the head. That guilty verdict was a shocker to me because Price almost single-handedly wrecked the case. Luckily the jury saw through the nonsense and was able to hold the judge accountable. But geez, I don't know how Price wasn't fired or at least suspended afterward.

Hah, nope, but Amanda's dress was actually rather conservative compared to Chloe's. Chloe was showing more skin than dress. Because there are two things in play, one is Tucker's personal debt and the other is the company itself. Apparently the loans were within Ashley's financial reach to snatch up but the entire company is not. Victoria mentioned last week that McCall Unlimited is a billion dollar company. That's why the show is giving the impression that only the Newmans or Devon can afford to buy it. Clearly they're the only billionaires in the entire world.🙄 So I've been thinking about Sharon's new grandbaby Aria and wondering what last name will be given to the wee little tyke. Will it be Copeland like her mommy or Porter like her other mommy? Or maybe Copeland-Porter or Porter-Copeland. Or...wait for it...wait for it...Portland! I will be surprised if the show is that clever.

My favorite comment from reddit:

Jerome only got shot in the chest, right? How much would the mortuary need to do to him to make him presentable for a funeral? I was surprised they said it would take several days. Teddy needs to put a peephole in the front door of that place where he's hiding before he shoots the wrong person, lol. "A public execution." What did Teddy's ex mean by that? Teddy didn't seem to be too worried though. Gustavo is trying to spin too many plates at the same time. There's a circular firing squad forming around him, though it looks like the CIA might be planning to end everyone involved in this mess. So glad Wendy has stayed clean and is planning to get out of the projects. Hope she succeeds and doesn't get caught in the crossfire with Leon.* Buckley had the nerve to show up to Jerome's funeral. That crackhead is part of the reason Jerome ended up dead. If Franklin's the devil then who is Teddy? Maybe Satan has a brother. 😏 Loved the song over the end credits. Don't think I'd ever heard it before. Eddie Kendricks was a great artist, gone too soon. And whoever has been selecting the soundtrack music for this season has been doing absolutely stellar work. *ETA: apparently

Not only were Lily's kids missing, what about Sharon's? We know why Mariah couldn't attend but what about Faith and Noah? Noah lives in GC so unless he was sick, he should've been there to support his grandparents. And Allie would have been part of the Abbott contingent as well as Noah's date. Was there any mention of John Abbott by name? I feel like he's as least as important as Neil but the show seems to have stopped bringing him up for some reason.

Sigh, even in outer space it's the bureaucrats coming up short, with lame excuses of too much work. (But apparently there's a fan theory afoot that either Colonel Tuttle was engaging in sabotage by claiming a backlog, or he was the unwitting victim of it by whoever Elia Kane is working with.) If R5 revealed the covert location why didn't the Mandalorians destroy it? Seems to me like it's a security risk. Mandalorian Seal Team 6: Fuck around and find out. So, Bo-Katan is The One now. How did the Armorer go from disbelief to accepting Bo-Katan's word about the Mythosaur? And from, "Never remove your helmet!" to " Take off your helmet." The Armorer is looking a bit flighty to me. Ditto comments upthread, Moff Gideon allegedly being abducted by Mandalorians smells like a false flag operation. Hope someone goes back to the covert and gets the baby pterodactyls.

Who carries around their marriage license to whip out at a party full of people who are supposed to be scared of you? The stupid; it burns. 🥵 Oh look, it's the guy who IMO should've been the bicentennial celebration's honored attendee since he's the great x 4-grandson of Genoa City's founder. Hi, Chance. Long time no swoon. Ashley and Tucker have been married before so it didn't seem like such a stretch to me that he'd suddenly propose. But Tucker, buddy, pull up. Don't be looking desperate. Can't say I was thrilled with Amanda's dress. Not the color, not the fabric, not the linebacker shoulder pads. The front side slit did show off her toned legs though. Come on, is Chance the only detective in GCPD? Why is it up to him to take statements from everyone in the room? He should have a partner who could help. Lily said Devon doesn't golf. Cue Kenny Loggins! Gah, JG, do some research. A trained detective would've been questioning witnesses separately, not in front of each other. And Jack and Diane would have known to say nothing to him except, "Lawyer." So Phyllis and Stark hijacked an ambulance as part of their scheme. That's next level...and grand theft. I don't understand why Devon's purchase of McCall Unlimited is contingent upon whether things go okay at C-W with Lily. He could buy MU and let Tucker keeping running it. He just shouldn't let Tucker make any significant financial decisions. OMG, Abby, tell Devon of course you'll move in with him. You should've moved out of Chancellor Mansion months ago. Even Dominic knows you're a freeloading squatter. 🤨 Wow, is Vikki worried Nate might get pulled back into medicine with Elena and away from the corporate world? Sigh. It appears Nate has been deemed the resident heartthrob of GC, with three smart, accomplished women competing for him. WHAT IS THIS WORLD?

Multiple news sources are reporting the scientific community's excitement at the discovery that Tyrannosaurus rex and velociraptor dinosaurs may have had lips. So I'm feeling pretty good about all the times I've likened Phyllis to a velociraptor, due to both her duck lips and the flapping arms. No indication yet of what kind of lipstick the dinos wore to accentuate their huge mouths. Relevant article here.

Probably so when people start getting arrested, the newly married co-conspirators can't be compelled to testify against each other. Christine recently mentioned she might be headed back to the District Attorney's office so there's likely a big trial coming. Right? AFAIC he should keep both women's names out of his abusive, misogynist mouth. Yeah, I said it. Come at me Victor. Re Jeremy's gray velour jacket at the gala, I have a bed throw that looks almost exactly like that fabric but yesterday I was still getting an odd sense of deja vu. Sure enough, I went back and looked at the photos from Victoria and Ashland's wedding and his tux was also gray velour. At the time I wondered whether Ashland's suit was fleece underneath like my bed throw. Funny how gray velour is now Y&R's uniform for male villains, hah hah.

No one in that room held up their phone to record the scene Phyllis was making. Totally not believable. These days at least one person would have been live-casting that display of lunacy to social media. Sorry but Amanda came across like a jealous, bitter ex to me. What she said to Abby and Devon was 100% true but geez, time and place, hon. Her hair was fab though. Stick your sorries in a sack, Devon. You just regret getting caught cheating and giving Amanda the upper hand. Lol, Victoria ignored Elena when she went to summon Nate. The Elena who between herself and Nate is the doctor still practicing medicine. Stay icy, Vik. Wait, so Sally and Nick bought burgers at another restaurant and then took them to Crimson Lights to eat? WTAF? They could cause Sharon to get a health code violation. Nikki of all people said they should pray for Phyllis. Uh, how about no? Red's a disciple emeritus of Satan so let him deal with her. How did Phyllis know Diane and Jack would see the engagement ring in her hand and take it? And how did it not drop out of her hand when she fell to the floor? So stupid, these ridiculous coincidences we're supposed to swallow. But Ashley, Diane already is a member of the Abbott family. She's Kyle's mommy and Harrison's Dee Dee. Get over yourself and up on Tucker. My guy was looking like a whole snack today. 😋 Hmm, I think that one EMT who had a couple of lines was in on the scheme. He's probably how Diane's ring ended up in Phyllis' hand, to be seen at just the right moment. Jeremy and Phyllis MARRIED? WHAAAAAAATTTT????? The wedding night must have been like a mongoose mating with a chupacabra. Adam was gazing at Sally kind of weird there at the end, right? Oy.

After Jack joyfully announced he had asked Diane to marry him and she had accepted, the next scene at the gala had Sally looking wistful and a little envious. She softly made the comment, "That's real love." as Adam lifted his champagne flute to her from across the room. Meanwhile, Nick just stood there like he'd just made a solid poop in his pants and was proud of himself. He didn't put his arm around Sally or anything else to acknowledge the highly romantic moment. It was clear by her facial expression that Sally had realized--again--she was settling for less than what she could've had with Adam. Of course after the party Sally and Nick will likely go back to her hotel room and do what they always do.

Meh, I don't buy Diane going berserk like that. She has Jack and Kyle solidly in her corner, and she's on the verge of getting everything she wants. No way she'd risk everything by assaulting Phyllis over some playground taunts. Wonder if MS knew it was possible to see where one of her hair extensions was attached in the back of her head? 😼 One of those guys sitting at the bar looked like he could be Devon's body double or stand-in. And the guy next to him could be Billy's, and the one next to him, Nick's. That'd be cool if they were allowed to show their faces for a change and act as party guests. Amanda?! Why is she at the party? She had to expect to see Abby and Devon. Yikes. Ashley and Audra hadn't met before? Whatever, lol, Tucker was trying hard to maintain his cool because that moment was like TNT eyeballing C-4. Gina! Quite a blast from the past. Good thing Kevin was absent from the event. WTF did Miss Charles call herself doing, lowkey flirting with Kyle? She knows he's married, and her emo ex-boyfriend Noah is his BIL. Be more smart, Audra. Meanwhile, Kyle's family should buy him a lanyard to attach to his phone so he can keep it around his neck. (Dumbest plot device ever. 🙄) Sure hope Jack had the engagement ring insured. It looked hella expensive. Aw, whackadoodle Chelsea can dish it out but she can't take it. But it's okay, she's got Billy trained to feed her precious ego and be a human band-aid. Danny warning Daniel away from Lily was unexpected. Hmm. Great speech by Jack, I thought, except for the schmoopy part at the end. That's right, Sally. You know in your soul Nick doesn't love you and never will. At best you are a thing he possesses. He ain't putting a ring on it. OMG, Phyllis looked like a hungover hag who'd just crawled out of a gutter and found an evening gown tossed in a dumpster. What a loon. I guess I should be looking forward to Amanda chewing out Abby and Devon but ehhh. Why should she bother at this point?

Devon folding on the C-W lawsuit due to some mysterious sign from Neil from the great beyond is utter b.s. to me. Why did SpiritNeil wait so long to step in? Was he busy? Stay delusional, Nate. Your cousins still aren't checking for you. I just noticed Sharon's unusual earrings. They worked well with her dress, I thought. Look at Nina arriving fashionably late. Eh, you're not that important, hon. Sally did have a tiny baby bump that could easily have been what she ate for lunch. Ew on Nick possessively patting her belly. Poor tyke is probably already flinching in utero. "You're not my daddy! Stop touching me!" Kyle didn't know who Leanna Love is. Odd. Guess he's never read his parents' Wiki pages, lol. If Chance really did skip the gala to avoid running into Abby I'm going have to call foul. Or fowl. As in big ol' chicken, bawk bawk. Seriously? Cute little smackdown of Abby the adulteress by Chance's mommy. Wonder if 'Nina's gonna get in Devon's face too? I'm betting not. Okay, I did not expect Adam to be the one propping Sharon & Chance as a potential romance. 🤔 Sharon referred to "Aria" when she was talking to Adam. Must be what Mariah and Tessa named their new baby. Did we know that before today? Dang, Chloe got part of her gown caught in the car door. Oops! You'd think Phyllis would've booked her room under a fake name. And what was up with her garish makeup? She looked like Gloria Swanson waiting for her closeup in Sunset Boulevard. Whatever, Red Menace actually had the nerve to call Diane a psychotic, despicable lunatic. Um. Ohhhhh, Phyllis wanted Summer, Jack, and Kyle to walk in on her and Diane. But how could she have timed it so perfectly for them to catch Diane choking her? Sure, Jan. 🙄

Perhaps but Ashley's abortion still wasn't the first in daytime soaps. It was a ludicrous claim for Y&R to make without explaining how they arrived at that conclusion. Plus, Erica Kane's wasn't even the first, it was only the first after the Roe v. Wade decision. It is a practice that originated in tribal Africa and is currently also used in certain Latino/Hispanic cultures which are Afro-adjacent. I don't want to get further into it unless Audra does it again, or any of the Black characters do it. The context would matter. No, it's generally not a common thing in the US except among certain immigrant groups, or in media which depicts those groups.

I had a bunch of detailed comments about the 50th anniversary special but my tablet was about to burst into flames so I deleted it. Good lord what steaming pile of bovine excrement. And a few straight up lies. Are TPTB trying to corner the market on gaslighting? And again, it was interesting who was front and center, and who was mostly or completely left out. No joke. I think he also might want to do us all a favor and keep his mouth shut from now on. He's so far up his own a$$ it's a wonder he can sit down.

Did Nate ever explain why he arrived at the party without Elena? I don't know how she didn't pop him upside the head instead of kissing him. He was flirting with his boss, in public! Whee, Michael called Jill a legendary GC ho right to her face. She owned it too! Geez, Leanna, take no for an answer. You're just humiliating yourself, grubbing for gossip like a middle school mean girl. I can't with Billy and Daniel wearing matching a matching jackets and no one commenting on it. My guy Tucker continued to be hilarious. Too bad even he couldn't salvage this dreadful event. Today we learned that Paul is retired as chief of the GCPD and vacationing in Portugal. Not dead yet! 😉 Nate, the only deal in the works for you is how soon you can get naked with Victoria without Elena finding out. Shut up. Jill, you didn't catch on to Audra and Tucker's scheme, you were told about it. And the person you really need to cuss out is Victoria. Why are Mariah and Tessa still in Portland? Can the infant they adopted not travel? Baby No Name will be graduating from GCU at this rate. I didn't expect Jill to be so gracious toward Chelsea. Guess she's not aware of how manipulative Chelsea has been with Johnny and Billy. OH PLEASE. Diane is not gullible enough to buy Phyllis' lies. She should've just dialed 9-1-1 and/or called Jack. And WTAF, Kyle stays losing his freaking phone. Don't do it Devon. I think Lily has been fighting more for her job and for Jill than her relationship with you. Hope the bygones don't turn into regrets. After Elena said she'd changed her mind about interviewing JT for her podcast, Audra made a teeth-sucking sound. All I'm going to say is I am way surprised Y&R let Zuleyka Silver do that, assuming they knew beforehand. (Or know what it means.) 🤯

Everyone should check their local listings because the west coast feed will air at 7 PM. Had to laugh at the way Jill sort of rolled her eyes at Mamie saying she was now worth $10M. Jill probably has spent that much on clothes. But it also made me think about Abby, Victoria, and Nick. They each got $150M $500M from Victor when they sued him for their trust funds. I know Nick gave most of his money away but Abby and Victoria should both be billionaires by now, right? The only investment Abby has made is in Society. She doesn't have her own home except the one Brad left her, and she doesn't have a private jet. Dominic's expenses are likely shared between Abby, Devon, and Chance. I don't know what Victoria spends her money on because her house is nothing special and neither are her clothes. She doesn't have a private jet or a vacation home (except the villa in Italy which her parents gave her). Her kids go in and out of boarding school but Billy has to be helping out with that. She was the owner of the Gloomy Punchbowl for a minute but someone bought her out. So why do we never hear that Abby and Victoria are also billionaires?
