Getting to Genoa You All Over Again: Y&R Daily Chat

[ScoobieDoobs]

Ah, so let’s see, today we had a dunce parade on view, of the biggest idiots & morons GC has to offer.

First there was Pomp, insisting that he could “handle” Vic.  Oh, but Audra thinks the same, while she’s letting herself be prostituted by Vic.  And there was Jackie, giving Pomp skeptical looks as to what the offer is.  You were right to give Pomp those looks, Jackie — cuz his offer is idiotic & ridiculous & he’s a fool & a clown.

Then there was Billy, yet another GC fool & clown.  He’s ready to put off the launch of his still non-existent biz.  Why?  Cuz this party Doo-mah is throwing is soooo importante, he must delay the launch of the non-existent biz.  Oh that Billy, we can depend on him to make the wisest & bestest decisions in business, right?  Uh no!

And lastly we had Nick, who was highlighting his other big trait, other than being a dick — being GC’s biggest dunce.  So Nick was being all friendly-wendly & cuddly-wuddly & cozy-wozy & flirty-flirty with The Red Beast.  And The Red Beast was doing her best imitation of Bette Davis doing Baby Jane Hudson.  She was wearing a little girl’s barrette & doing an out of control girlish giggle.  She looked like a loon — as per usual for her.

So lemme get this straight — Nick the dunce is so eager to help The Red Beast, while she wants to steal his mother’s company right out from under her?  What a moron.

Uch, this new format where we jump around between 3-4 convos for the entire hour is BORing! 

You know what else is boring, and also gross AF? Having to watch MS reprise her demure, giggly, coquette BS for the umpteenth time. And parting her hair on tbe side with a kiddie barette ain't making her appear like a giggly college gal. Just stop with her already. Between MS's SyPh and EB's Victor, this show will never get better.

Scoobs, we were posting at the same time, on the same wavelength!

You know that things are going from worse to worse when Manic Pathetic Phyllis🐍 is the first thing you see today. I was right because Manic Pathetic Phyllis🐍 is also the last thing we see. 

The first thing Billy👃does is antagonize Adam. He just has to be a putz but Chelsea just sits there with a thumb up her poop and says nothing to Billy👃 but she has plenty to say  to Adam.  Billy👃 lies as easily as he breaths.  That’s why his 👃 covers most of his face 🤥🤥. 

In waiting for Manic Pathetic Phyllis to find out that Nick🦍 asked Sharon to go as his plus one. 

I sure hope that Mr. Dumas has security at his chateau checking on invitations to keep Manic Pathetic Phyllis🐍 from crashing.  Also Amanda tells  Manic Pathetic Phyllis no noway nada to getting her an invitation.  But I’m sure that will not stop her  

 

 

[Joimiaroxeu]

FFS, Claire is a member of one of the wealthiest families on the planet. Why did she have to stay up all night tending to Cole? He should be in the frigging hospital, not in a hotel room! 

Billy stopped in Crimson Lights for a cup of black coffee. Apparently GC doesn't have any convenience stores, or Billy and Sally don't have a basic coffee machine at home. Sure.

Oy, Sally. That was a lot of leopard print you had on today. Or was it cheetah? 😸

Does anyone know where Phyllis went to acting school?  I swear it was the University of Gumby.  What the hell is it with her twisting her arms in a variety of silly poses, while hunching over trying to look like a coquette?  Add to that her nearly constant whispering while contorting herself.  She belongs in a circus tent playing rubber woman. 

I find it uncomfortable to watch sometimes. It's not clear whether it's Phyllis' PTSD or MS upstaging her scene partners. Either way, enough already.

[Joimiaroxeu]

Diane and Jack noted how they're already going to be in Europe when it's time to go to the Dumas bash. Maybe Dumas isn't providing both transportation and lodging for his guests after all. I guess I misunderstood the invitation wording. 🤔

Phyllis was feeling snubbed after Nick has told her pretty everyone she knows was invited to the Dumas party but her. And Nick hasn't revealed to Phyllis yet who his date will be. Hee.

Nick made a valid point: Chancellor is indeed privately owned. So why do the Newmans believe Dumas is going after it? Seems like needless concern to me.

I don't think Nick is taking Phyllis seriously. Everything she says lately sounds insane. AFAIC Nick ought to be getting together with Summer and Daniel and arranging to have Phyllis committed. 

[Joimiaroxeu]

Nick actually told Phyllis to stay away from Dumas. Boy, bye. Have you met her before? Phyllis is going to try to take a spin on the Dumas joystick. (I'm thinking Red better get there before Lily does though. Just sayin'.)

Poor Kyle. He actually believes his $5M chump change offer to Victor will work. Diane and Jack stared at Kyle like he'd sprung a second head. Gotta hate it when your prized child is such a disappointment, huh, Mr. & Mrs. Abbott?

Yay, Sally is going to France with Billy! I expect her to be the best-dressed woman in the crowd. Slay, queen.

Has anyone ever told Kyle what Victor did to his Uncle Billy back in the day? 

Kyle doesn't act like it, does he? And frankly, Kyle also ought to be worried about what Claire might do to him if they ever have a bad breakup. Maybe that's what Victor is counting on with his ploy to use Audra as a honeytrap: Claire handles it like Jordan taught her. Yikes.

I'm also over the foolishness of Cole being on his death bed and refusing to go to the doctor. 

And the selfishness. If I was sick enough that my grown daughter had to stay up all night tending to me and especially if I was rich, my ass would be at the hospital if I am sick and weak enough to collapse at a party. 

I will say “What is wrong with Cole?” is probably the most interesting storyline right now. lol

Maybe he was poisoned and Dumas has the antidote! 

[Sake614]

If Cole won’t go to the hospital, call a fucking doctor and have him make a house call. Don’t ask Cole, just do it. If necessary, have Victoria tell him she’s leaving him if he doesn’t agree to the visit. 

[Snaporaz]

Harrison calls Diane "DiDi", and his sorta great-grandmother Nikki is "GiGi".  Can he please start calling Ari Doom-uhhh "DuDu"?   

June 13th, huh?  Maybe all of the GC oligarchs have been invited to a Tank Parade watch party.  DuDu must have a "Nice" big screen, right?

Sally, it's probably a good idea to delay the launch party if you're still planning on an Edward R. Murrow-Walter Cronkite theme.  CBS may think they can rest on those lofty journalism laurels, but they now start each day with Oprah's friend and two smarmy jackholes, and it doesn't get much better from there.  A Howard Beale theme might be more appropriate for Abbott Communications.

[NinjaPenguins]

Wow. The conversations today just crackled with energy and rapier sharp wit. I can’t get enough of this Aristotle DOO-mah fellow who is power sucking the show into his insatiable maw like a goddamn black hole without even being seen or heard! You guys, he’s scheduled his soiree for Friday the 13th! Oh man, the rich symbolism and subtle foreshadowing here is rivaled only by the audacity of thinking the audience is impressed.

Maybe Genoa City is trapped in the dark ages, prone to superstitions and incapable of acknowledging the germ theory of disease. Doctors? Pfffft. Claire and Victoria struggled valiantly all night to balance Cole’s humors as consumption gnawed at his spirit. I’m sorry, but Cole is basically a nice, smart guy who wouldn’t expect his girlfriend and daughter to attend to his possibly contagious self. What’s he going to do if someone calls an ambulance - wrestle the paramedics? Dude’s a featherweight with a fever. The important thing here, of course, is that our plucky heroine Claire not only nursed her ailing father all night after singlehandedly throwing the world’s best party, but courageously summoned the strength to go work for grandma. Business never sleeps!

I wonder how Kyle’s idiotic contract idea will put him in complete control of the Victor situation? Oh to have the sublime confidence of a mediocre nepo-baby.

I just love it when people badly fake foreign accents for the lulz. I definitely did not sprain something cringing at Phyllis’ … whatever the hell that was. Nick’s pull my finger jokes are funnier. Like someone else said, watching a character be over the top manic without knowing if it’s supposed to signal untreated PTSD is uncomfortable. Phyllis is always extra. How do we know when it means something different?

 

[Kemper]

MS and her alter ego, Phyllis, have been frustrating me for years. Probably decades. From pictures and outtakes, it would seem her costars love working with her. But I can't help thinking that if I were sharing a scene with her, and she started with her many acting tics, I would resent the scene stealing. But I guess that means her acting partners won't have to try so hard to, you know, actually act. Begone with her.

I too, have a bad case of the Boes Woes! I too ff'd through today's schlockfest. Pomp's speech was so filled with unctuousness that even Guy Fieri would have said, 'Too much umami for Flavortown!" The whole thing was cloying from start to finish. I felt like I'd just had my teeth cleaned and was then forced to chew on a pound of raw sugar. My teeth hurt watching this mess. 😫 

This reminded me that when Claire arrived on the show, I thought she should be named Cloy instead. It still fits!

Does Winters have no HR department? I guess this is a question for all the companies since people get hired and fired on a whim in this town. Lily is always saying she has to check with Devon & Nate it's like...don't you have people for that?

And Cole better have consumption, scarlet fever or some other old timey disease because him laying around with a cough is boring otherwise.

[Chatty Cake]

Remember the old A and W commercial where the guy is interviewing for a position and mispronouncing the interviewers name as Mr Dumbass?  The guy corrects him and says it’s Dumass. I’m all for calling the mystery person, Aristotle Dumbass. 
 Speaking of dumbasses, Kyle is certainly one of the biggest. 
And on the topic of names, any other As the World Turns fans think of Holden Snyder and Damien Grimaldi when the current never ending mystery of Damien and Holden is on?

"Phthisis" is on the death certificate of two of my great-grandparents in the late 1800s. It is the catch-all medical term for "pulmonary tuberculosis or a similar progressive systemic disease" from back when they didn't bother with autopsies or diagnostic tests.  With Cole coughing all over town, I wonder how many people he has infected and who won't be able to travel to Paris to meet Dumas.

Edited June 5 by Denize

[Joimiaroxeu]

Good lord, more of Cole's phlegmy coughing. Who wants to see this? Bueller? Bueller?

Nooooo!!!!! Amy's staying in GC. Bleh. IMO the Winters family is being double-teamed by her and Damian. 

This b.s. deal between Kyle and Victor. Who would pay millions of dollars to date someone, outside of a high-priced call girl situation? And Victor being willing to sell access to his granddaughter seems all kinds of disgusting to me. But of course dumb@$$ Kyle signed a piece of paper agreeing to the potential crime.

Victor's smug look after Kyle accepted Victor's absurd contract and left. Hear tell, at that moment Satan down in Hades went, "Brrr. Did anyone feel that besides me?"

Damian keeps acting cagey with Lily about his dating history. I'm still wondering if maybe Damian doesn't go for women but telling Lily would ruin the long con he likely has going.

A doctor made a housecall to examine Cole. 'Twas a miracle! 🙄 Then he came up with the same armchair diagnosis as Victor. Claire will run right over to thank Grandpa Unlicensed Medical Expert, I bet. 

Look at Audra trying to nab herself an invite to the Aristotle Dumas bash so she can honeytrap Kyle. How is she going to explain to Nate why she was invited but he wasn't?

[Waldo13]

Treatments?  Amy had treatments?  Amy looks to good for treatments. Chemo and radiation knocks the crap out of you.  What is Amy’s purpose in GC?  The monkeys with a keyboard are taking her from death’s door to a miraculous recovery.  Is Amy now a fan favorite?  

Call the doctor?  No Victoria, call an ambulance!  So the doctor makes a house call (only in GC) and confirms that Cole should have gone to the hospital in the first place.  Oh my god, it could be pneumonia and we get an overreaction by Victoria and Claire/Eve. 

Victor is too agreeable to signing the contract. I’m quite sure he’s setting Kyle up for failure.  As I thought, it is a set up but can Victor get an invitation for her and Kyle?  

[surfgirl]

Jesus H. Christ. First the MWTs write a horrible, offensive story line about Sharon and her bipolar disorder and make her out to be a clown. Then they write an even more horrible and offensive story line about Connor and his OCD like he had schizophrenia or something. Then they write an even more horrible, offensive story line about Alan/Martin having actual schizophrenia. Now they're writing a story line about Cole having, !!! WAIT FOR IT!!!, pneumonia?!? AYFKM with this shite? The dude's looked like he's being ravaged by either cancer or HIV since he hit the canvas, and now we're to believe he suddenly is batting LIFE THREATENING pneumonia?!? An illness easily cured with today's modern medicine? WTAF are we watching?

[SweePea59]

Damian told Lily he has ager issues. Run, Lily, run!

Luckily for the MWT they have no clue what cancer treatments do to a person. Hard to believe, but how else can one explain this idiotic crap they're writing for that drip, fake-Amy?

[KLovestoShop]

My sister has been going through various kinds of Chemo for the past 2 1/2 years for stage 4 colon cancer.  She’s been through hell and back and she gets so damn mad at these soap writers who treat cancer like it’s some kind of easy cure.  The only bad thing Amy goes through is having a horrible wig.  Amy can take her son, and the fake son, and go back to Chicago.

I'm so sorry to hear that. My brother suffered  the same thing for  10 years and yes, it was pure hell.  This show absolutely sucks at how they treat all illnesses both physical and mental. They infuriate me.

[ScoobieDoobs]

OK, Show, I'm spotting some really terribly written shit here that's bothering the heck outta me!

First off, there's the Amy crap.  Uh, reminder to the writers, Amy's son is Damian -- NOT NATEY!  So why the fuck is she all huggy-poos with Natey?  He is NO relation to her!  And why the fuck is she living with Natey?  Damian is the one who should be responsible for her.  I don't get any of this or where they're going with either Damian's or Amy's storylines.  And I have to hold back my barf at the icky/yucky sweetie-pie Audra turns into when she's around Amy.  Blech/feh/yech!

And then there's Lils & Damian.  They've had 750 meals together & have clearly shown they have absolutely no chemistry together.  So where is this going?  And he does seem very cagey -- about his past & everything else.  And why am I supposed to care about Holden?  He looks good, but he's also a stalker & a shallow barfly.  Meh.

This nonsense of Cole coughing himself to death, and insisting on not being helped, while none of the idiots around him call 911, was getting ridiculously annoying.  Hey Show, will ya stop throwing crap this freakin' stupid at us?  And yeah, pneumonia can be fatal, if left untreated & in the beginning stages it can be highly contagious.  A friend of mine went thru it & was in the hospital for week.  So what's the purpose of all this?  To show us Cole is actually a selfish creep who is OK with spreading whatever disease he caught to everyone in GC?  Whatevs.

And then we had Vic being his usual evil Satan self.  Speaking of Satan, stupid Pomp shoulda read that thing he signed -- cuz I'm certain the moron musta sold Vic his soul.  And Audra was mighty cocky, asking Vic in a surprisingly confident (and sorta disrespectful) tone why he "summoned" her.  Newsflash to ya, Audra -- hun, you do NOT hold the cards (or have ANY leverage) in whatever sleazy shit ya got goin' with Vic!

And why'd they do a closeup on the Dumbass invite?  Is Vic gonna make up a fake one for Audra & Pomp, so Audra can do her porn-pics/seduction shtick?  Hmmmm.

[SweePea59]

That invite looked like something out of an '80's wedding invitation catalog.

[Kemper]

How about Audra and Kyle plot together? There must be some way the "writers" can come up with a storyline where the two decide to "play" Victor.  I don't know where I am going with this - but together they can prove to Claire what a terrible grampa/person Victor is, have her hate him, have his whole family turn on him. Except Nicki. She deserves to be an outlier, too. And Victor (via Kyle and Audra) will be shown to be the terrible person that he always has been.  

He can either reform a little and be relegated to talking about his grandkids, taking Nicki to all the eateries around town. He can sit on his throne, making small talk with his former minions. Or. He can be relegated to being seen, sitting and looking at his phone, for the rest of his tenure.

I am not blaming Eric B for all of this. I blame the writers and producers for letting him be a Mob Boss for decades, never showing growth. Running roughshod over everyone, especially his family. Change or be gone! Take the charmless Damien with you.

I am blathering on about this because I read that Victor has hidden something in the contract that will destroy or almost destroy Kyle. And through this, Jack. Also....

Have Adam be Dumas; he is also playing Victor. I am probably speaking too soon, but the new character they are bringing on? Billy something? If he has any charm at all, Show will find a way to ruin him and he will vanish. Like all the other new male actors with any talent or charisma that have appeared on Show the last few years.

I'm not that well versed on contract law, but wouldn't there have to be actual damages to occur from breaking the contract?  I mean, "breaking someone's heart" and "hurting Claire" don't seem to be measurable.  What if Kyle spills hot coffee in her lap?  Gotta pay the 5 million?  How can you tell someone has a broken heart (emotionally) and what's it to Victor if she does?  If this idiocy ever went before a judge I think he'd throw it out as an unenforceable contract.  So that means there is probably something else in there that Stoopid Kyle, in his haste to be amenable to Viktor, didn't pick up on.  Either all his stock in Jabot goes to Victor or Kyle has to drown Jack, Billy and Diane in the family pool.

Not just any treatments.  She had new, experimental treatments that probably should be monitored on a daily basis for research purposes.  So why doesn't she just stay in ChiTown?  Instead of tra-la-la-ing around Postage Stamp Park?  Or moving in with her presumptive second son? (Question:  Why do people with so much money [Damian, Kyle/Claire, Sally, Phylthy] have so much trouble finding housing?  They could hire people to do that for them.  Hell, Tessa and Mariah found a great house in a week.)

I am convinced that TPTB are saving money by foregoing the teenaged summer hires and 'hip and cool' storylines by subjecting us to Mariah's long, drawn-out "what did she do?" debacle. I can only hear "I can't tell you" one more time before I start FFing every time I see her face like I do Amy's. 🙄

[ScoobieDoobs]

Oh sheesh, Mariah, enuf with the sadz looks, will ya, hun?  Ya better reveal what ya did pretty damn quick cuz I had it with dragging this shitty storyline out.  

I mean, seriously, sweetie, Lunatic on B&B murdered people & wants to go for a 3rd one.  Sorry, Mariah, but whatever crap you did, can’t be worse than that.  Unless . . . she just set off a ticking bomb that’s gonna take out the whole cast — and we get a new show set in a different locale with a completely different cast.  In which case we’d be forever grateful to Mariah!  Oh JG & Bell, are ya listening? 😃😃😃

[Js Nana]

If Mariah doesn't want anyone to ask her about the dreadful sin she committed, then she should stop walking around with that "I'm in such pain" look on her face - I swear, if one of my kids walked around with that kind of look on their face and refused to talk with anyone about how it got there, I'd smack them upside the head and tell them to get down off the cross because we needed the wood for something else.

For a second I thought Tessa was Summer. Same dishwater blonde hair, with a center part.

Meanwhile, Sally's coiffure. Surely she couldn't have done all that elaborate twisting and braiding by herself. I didn't hate it though, at least not as much I detested her suit with the holes in the shoulders. Ehhh.

Apparently Victoria has never seen an ailing person before. Cole may be seriously ill but it's not as if he got sick all of a sudden. Calm down, Vikki.

Oooh, an ominous B&W flashback. So did Mariah have drinks with some geezer barfly and it turned into a drunken ONS? Or is she feeling extra guilty because it was a man? 😕 Enquiring minds want to...drop kick this storyline into Lake Winnebago.

Not only that, they seem to be repeating scenes, just in different locations and/or different clothes. Mariah and Sharon had basically the same conversation a little over a month ago at the coffeehouse. Today the writers finally made a tiny bit of progress with it but the new details will probably be stuck on repeat for the next month. Yeesh.

[One Tough Cookie]

Sharon, cut the baristercoffeep therapist with  your daughter, she told  you several times to FUCK OFF.

Iff'd thru scenes, I didn't want to see Danial and Caitlyn{is that her name?[} strum the guitar; sing an listen to all the angst.  I got my own problems.

Filthis is just creepy.  She stalks around the GAC/Society/and Crimson lights just looking for someone to annoy.  And while I am on the subject--Amanda is jeopardizing her job teaming up the beast. How is she good friends with some wacko like her and maintain any professional ethics and get her invited when she wasn't? Enquiring minds sort of want to know.

Mariah is pregnant, altho that man looked a little creepy.

And because it  can't be said enough SHUT THE FUCK UP SHARON.

Finally we are back with the Mariah/Tessa drama. Did it take a while for the monkeys with a keyboard to come up with the 🐂💩 story that Mariah doesn’t want to tell what happen so she can keep Tessa happy while avoiding telling her is making her unhappy.  As Mr Spock would say, that’s not logical.  What’s worse than a one night  stand?  A two night stand 😜?  Did we get a clue from Mariah’s flashback?  Was that Ian in disguise?  

Tessa is absolutely beautiful but I’m not sure how much I like her lighter hair but it’s starting to grow on me.  

Manic Pathetic Phyllis🐍’s lesson for the day is how to look ridiculous my dressing monotone. Orange hair, a very unflattering orange dress, and orange skin tone.  So Manic Pathetic Phyllis🐍 is thinking about crashing the party but luckily she got an invite.  Why am I not surprised.  

Victoria just confirmed that Mr Dumas, party sounds like an Agatha Christie novel.  Can’t Victoria go to the South of France any time she wants because she has a chateau there that Victor gave to her. 

 

 

[MsMalin]

What did Mariah do? I guess we will never know because its so bad that the CBS censors won't approve it.

[ScoobieDoobs]

Wow, The Red Beast has turned into an Orange Beast!  Hair is now orange, skin on face & body is orange, makeup is orange & her top was orange.  She was an orange blur today — uh, actually more like an orange nightmare!  But man, she got awfully close to Sally’s face, didn’t she?  Thought she was going in for a wet sloppy one.  Is this a hint of something, Show?

Maybe the unspeakable, horrible, awful, terrible thing Mariah did was . . . a daytime hookup (so technically NOT a ONS) with . . . The Orange Beast!  Eek, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, Mariah!  Except, how does the creepy old man fit in this scenario?  A theeesome with him & The Orange Beast?  Eek, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, Mariah!  Did Ian mess your head up that bad, hun?

Btw,  Nikki still had the plastered-down party remnants (in the back of her head) of that lousy copycat of Bowie Ground-Control-to-Major-Tom hair.  Fix that PDQ, show stylists!  Hmmm, are they morphing her into a Mrs. Brady shag?  Oh no!

Daniel, your guitar playing stinks.  Guess your “talent” may not be far off from your dyed-hair daddy dearest, eh?

Dear viewer: How are things in the Kuyper Belt these days - is it true that if you were born 248 Earth years ago on Pluto you'd still be a fetus on the planet Soap - but to answer your question; The former Red Beast has obviously suffered an attack of instaurare asinum (head-up-assitis) of the Orange variety, a symptom of which is severe near-sightedness, which causes the sufferer to be unable to make out any object that is more than 2 inches away from the tip of their nose.  Fortunately, Miss Sally was able to restrain herself from biting of the nose of the former Red Beast in retaliation for her offensive, in every sense of the word, intrusion into Miss Sally's personal space.  Please do write in again, friend ScoobieDoobs, as we find your questions to be most helpful in deciding the course of the show.

I’m not sure how much I like her lighter hair but it’s starting to grow on me.  

As it is on her.

luckily she got an invite

I'm suspecting that M. Dumas has a plan to destroy Madame Rouge for having made his life a living hell - just by being in it - in his pre-Dumas days, and so he's invited her to Nice for the pleasure of socially annihilating her while she's surrounded by all those who loathe her.

Amanda is jeopardizing her job teaming up the beast.

A few episodes back, I thought that I caught Amanda giving Phyllis a look like she's just stringing her along for M. Dumas, but maybe I'm wrong on that - and the character whose name you're wondering about is called Tessa and she is played by an actress named Cait Fairbanks.

[Chatty Cake]

Phyllis constantly being an asshole to Sally is getting old. Although I do think Sally should have kept her job at Marchetti. There can’t be a paycheck coming from Abbott Communications just yet. 
We’ve got another week of the entire cast mentioning Dumois over and over and maybe, just maybe on Friday, we will catch a glimpse of his feet in the last 10 seconds.

The only interesting part was Tessa and Daniel playing guitar. Nikki looks worse than ever. This show is so bad.
