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

Doesn’t Devon still own the GCAC?  Doesn’t the GCAC have a ball room?  Why would the award ceremony take place at the Grand Albatross. 

Yes, and Hamilton/Winters still have their offices there. The GCAC was mentioned in passing a few episodes back.

The problem is low ratings + budgetary constraints = fewer production sets.

My guess is that the GCAC set is a more formal and elaborate set, costing more money in labor to dress and light. Whereas The Phoenix is an open post-modern lobby/bar design and set dressing, with fairly universal lighting scheme; ending in lower labor costs for production.

Gloria’s back and it couldn’t be too soon. GC needed a breath of fresh air.  What did she put in that jar? 

Grandma Glo Has Landed!

Kevin is suspicious for a good reason.

I imagine she absconded with something valuable, and is on the run from Hollywood gunsels, known and unknown.

Quote

Lily and Nostrils?  After Cain, is this a step up or a step down?  

It's almost a lateral move for both of them, though Lily would get the worst of it in any coupling with NotBilly.

Lily often was pain in the ass, a screaming/blinkered harridan, married to a lying/useless/waste of skin, hair-puller, beneficiary of nepotism, killed Hillary 1.0, went to prison and paid her debt to society. Lily's character has improved without being surrounded by Winters/Ashby anchors dragging her backwards. Being told Hillary 2.0 being Hillary 1.0's twin, Lily's regretful and wishes to make amends as best as she is able.

NotBilly is a waste of skin, never paid back a nickel he threw away/bamboozled/embezzled/gambled/frittered away/gifted, an injustice collector, selfish, ignorant, vengeful, occasionally violent/murderous, constantly sarcastic/overwhelmingly unpleasant, ghastly husband/boyfriend/fuck buddy experience, accountable for the death of Delia and refuses to take responsibility, ambitious without willing to work for it, wears black socks with white shoes, moobs, preternaturally unattractive.

Famous last words, “It didn’t mean anything”.  Good for Devon. I knew you had it in you. 

<shakes head>

So why are you carrying on like it meant something, Elena?

How does it feel to be on the receiving end of sexual betrayal, Darvon?

Didn’t Nate and Elena just have sex a week ago? I know daytime moves fast now but I would have given maybe it a month or two (perhaps the holidays) before revealing it. Jeez! Haven’t the writers ever heard of letting a storyline simmer a bit?!

Cupid Stunt, this needs to be on Wikipedia, on every Y&R fan site, inscribed on the Rosetta stone, translated into all extant languages and be carved in butter and entered in the Iowa State Fair.  It's the definitive ButtBiscuit description.  Well done.

Hey Lily! Remember when Kevin gave you that STD?  Remember how painful and embarrassing it was?  You get involved with ButtBiscuit and there aren't enough antibiotic injections to heal you and no holes big enough to crawl in and hide.  If nothing else, PLEASE remember that its only a year or so ago when he was wearing skinny jeans with blazing white tennis shoes and was driving around town all day long with his brites turned on - and I mean the ones in those Carlsbad Caverns he calls a nose.

Unless he did a prat fall right into a giant bowl of wet spoiled brussel sprouts while giving Jack the raspberry, no way did a visit from ButtBiscuit perk Jack up.

Devon, if you were inspired by Nick, you really need to re-examine your life choices.  Nick is the same guy who thinks a bidet is a punch bowl and no matter what he says, doesn't wear underwear because he likes to feel the wind beneath his (chicken) wings, but because he has never been able to figure out how to put a pair on correctly.

Elena's breakdown was uncomfortably real, well done.  Maybe Devon will let her rent Neil's boathouse after he kicks he out.  

Devon punching Nate Natey Nate Nate Nate did my heart good.  So, how many days before he apologizes to him?  Two?  A week?  

Just imagine if someone told you that you were going to a fancy party arranged by Phyllis, what would you do?

Buy a new outfit at the Slack Shack?  Go all out and see what couture there is on sale at the Blouse Barn?  Ask Nick if you can make a dress from all his old underwear?  Hmmmm......see if you can borrow Victor's Leather Jacket of Virility, pair it with his spanx and call it black tie?  See if Phyllis has an extra bag of twizzlers for you to accessorize with?  Would you hope she modeled the party on that last big Methadone Maintenance Dance?  Or maybe a low-rent version of the "Welkommen" number from Cabaret?  Watch the Masque of the Red Death to get you in the mood?  

Hey Kevin, knock it off with your Gloria bashing.  She's stuck by your sniveling, psychotic feral manchild self through thick and thin, chipmunk costumes, your firestarter days as well as your porn and infectious persona.  And for gawdsake, man, you're not only married to Chloe but you're reproducing with her so wipe you nose and mind your mother.

Had to think about that one a bit. So will Devon be putting Elena into a coma, or will Elena be putting Amanda into a coma? Oh wait, Nate can put them all into a coma!

Meh, I don't really see the Elena and Nate thing as the same as when Devon and Hilary got together behind Neil's back. Devon and Hilary were in love. Elena and Nate are not. And Neil proved to be unworthy of Hilary's mercy matrimony. By a lot. Wonder if Amanda knows about that mess with Neil? Between Lily hastening Hilary and her baby's death, and Neil keeping Hilary comatose in a dank boathouse for months, the Winters were hella hard on Amanda's sister. She should probably run away from all of them.

Just a random thought here.....isolation is taking it's toll on my thought processes...but what ever happened to that Dream Home that Neil bought for Hillary1.0?  Wouldn't she (her estate) have inherited it after his demise? Or would his kids have gotten it?  If the former, wouldn't it belong to Hillary2.0?  If the latter, it could put Elena in the boathouse but not as a renter.  Paging Dr. Miracle Max!

I was pleasantly surprised. All she's done is be mopey and dull since she started. It was a revelation to see she can actually act.

Is Dummer trying to bring back Boy George with that silly hat?  
 

That silver dress that Elena was wearing was not attractive in any way.  Made her boobs look really weird.

So, who’s going to be the father of Elena’s baby?  
 

Nick, don’t believe a word that Faith says.  That girl is going to be a big piece of trouble, and don’t forget all the shit she pulled when trying to get you and Sharon back together.  And, who the heck is Jordan?  Is that the overdose kid?

Didn't the whole idea of Hillary1.0's Dream House (Mattel®) get brushed aside/disappeared/dropped when Neil tried to fix the residential electrical box and was electrocuted?

Oh noes! Neil is blinded!

Oh deerz! Darvon and Hillary1.0 can grab-ass and eye fuck and Neil can't see them until he regains his sight and seez 'em in the act!

Thank Goddess, the Silver Briefcase of Truth comes to the rescue in the plane crash on the Wisconsin mountain and all of Darvon and Hillary1.0's sexual betrayals are revealed to the entire freezing Winters family.

Shocking. Oh. What. A. Dilemma.

 

If the Hillary1.0 Dream House (Mattel®) were still in play, it would have been considered joint property in the Neil/Hillary1.0 marriage. In the divorce, the Dream House (Mattel®) could be sold off and proceeds split, or a cash settlement to whomever didn't want the house in Neil/Hillary1.0's divorce settlement.

Legitimate divorce settlements and estate distributions are anathema on Soap; don't want to bog down the viewers with real life information and accounting, unless the money is the McGuffin in the story arc.

Doncha hate when you're wearing a shiny new dress and some guy is a few feet away from you bleeding all over the place? 🙄

Well, Nate, sure hope getting a sample of Elena's goodies was worth possibly losing your ability to do surgery. Olivia would not be proud.

Mariah, Faith has been raised in a family of expert schemers and dissemblers. She's practically witnessed the Newman version of TED Talks in pulling sneaky stuff. You are light work for her.

Elena a living saint? Pssht, more like an opportunistic accidental golddigger to me. She showed up at the penthouse with Devon's sister Ana's ailing daddy and managed not to leave even though they did. 🤨

Oy, when Mariah climbs on her broom and defecates from high altitude. 😐 Billy didn't have to bother to come snitch to you about Faith, Mariah. Of course he needs people to tell him about himself but you might want to pick your moments better, hon.

Oh please, Elena. This is a problem of your own making. You should've kept your big confession to yourself. Or not cheated on Devon to begin with. Martyr complex much?

Nick said he had raised three teenagers. Summer, Noah, and who? Cassie never got past age 14 and Christian is still a pre-teen.

You better call Tyrone, Nate, and tell him to help you get your crap out of the clinic. It's likely that you will be getting fired tomorrow unless Devon sells it. (Which wouldn't look great given that he just received an award for opening it.) 😏

[Waldo13]

I have advice for Elena, wear a bra!  More advice, go to the man you cheated on than the one you cheated with. Nate doesn’t need a doctor but you need to beg for Devon’s forgiveness.  Devon only punched Nate causing a hand injury. Neil basically caused Hilary’s coma.  

Amanda is a Chatty Kathy and Phyllis is a Nosy Rosie. 

Nostrils is so clueless.  Nostrils thinks he had nothing to do with Faith acting out as he did with having nothing to do with DD’s death.  Nostrils, you exposed Adam for the greater good?  Most of GC already knew the crap Adam pulled but outside of GC, who’s Adam.  Mariah, why did you sort of give Nostrils a pass. If I remember member correctly, Adam never really knew  he hit DD and TIIC decided to change the story from being he didn’t to he did.  Nobody ever brings up the fact that Nostrils is guilty of child endangerment which is a serious crime.  

Faith you little schemer. Newman is thy name and deception is thy game.

[Sake614]

I have less than zero sympathy for Ellena. She’s been annoying me for weeks, ever since the whole Amanda/Hilary reveal. Well okay she annoyed me long before that but started to grow on me a little. Now? She can leave any time. She’s so worried about Devon that she immediately takes off after NATE when he goes to the hospital. Then she goes back the penthouse crying about making a mistake. And she doesn’t know what came over her (pun intended). Just own it. Tell Devon you let petty jealousy guide your emotions and you fucked his cousin. Of course it was more than that, but if she doesn’t want to own the rest, at least own that. Don’t stand there sniveling, expecting him to just say ‘bygones!’ And welcome you back into his bed. I really hope they don’t put Devon and Amanda together. I know BJ and MM have great chemistry but just no.  
 

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I actually LIKE Abby a Chance these days! They’re sweet and oddly grown up. And I don’t know if MO has been doing her own hair and makeup, but she looks so much better than pre-shutdown. She’s always been very pretty but the clothes, hair and makeup are really nice. Unless Syphyllis.

and speaking of clothes, I think Mariah lost the bottom half of her dress. I didn’t like the color on her (was it navy?) but it was pretty until I saw the bottom. It practically came up to her hoo ha. Not a good look IMO.

   Nostrildumbass said he saw a girl - I don't think they are going the gay route with her  but I'll bet its a drugdealer or maybe that skank that caused Hilaries demise out for revenge? What other you women could be gunning for Sharon & Co? Or a super fan of Tessa. Or someone po'd at Rey or Nick?

   Or Faith is drawn into a kidnapping/traffic thing as I mentione up top - kids of super rich usually are watched like hawks, have kidnap insurance and transmitters. Nah, that might be good.

Yeah, not a good look at all. When Elena was rushing towards Nate, her boobies were going in several different directions, all at once. And from the back it seemed like she had a wedgie. If memory serves, wardrobe wasn't kind to the actress on her GH days either. Shame, such a pretty woman.

[boes]

It must feel a little bit through-the-looking-glass for Faith, or any of the younger Newmans, to have to sit through a lecture on proper behavior from any of their elders.  It would be particularly grotesque to listen to Grandpire Deathly intone on right and wrong when you know he's imprisoned a man in his basement and fed him rats, kidnapped Jack and replaced him with a doppleganger, had Aunt Victoria hauled off to jail on her wedding day - and those are only a few of his grandpa stories - while also being told the orphanage story for the 7452th time.   Then, darling Grandmomma with her fetish for fine music and homicide, or Aunt Victoria and her Flowers in the Attic daddy issues, but at least they'd deliver their hypocritical monologues with a bit of unrecognized humor.  But for Faith to have to listen to NICK?  

Being taken to task by a velcro-fasteners for zippers, clipped toenail fetishist, proud bearer of the longest unclipped nosehairs in Genoa City who dries his jock straps and thongs on the mobile over the babies bed, the same guy who terrorized his ex-wife by wearing a mask of the man who abused his sister while stealing his father blind, now THAT must have been a surreal experience.

Not to worry, though.  Faith knows that all it will take to distract these self-absorbed knuckleheads is a few cat toys, a shiny ball or two and immediately asking them about themselves.  She's home free.

I only wish Mariah had thought to bring chains so she could have dragged ButtBiscuit even more thoroughly when he Snidely Whipsnaded himself into the coffee shop so he could tattle on Faith.  I'd say he slunk out of there with his tail between his legs but other than flaring his nostrils in an alarming way, he manspread himself outta there like he was late for his "Kegels for Men" exercise class.  He's like Victor - and Nick - and Adam, in that nothing and nobody is ever able to puncture their erroneous but unshakable self-regard.

Awww, Nate Natey Nate Nate Nate tore a tendon.  My heart bleeds.  And now, if anyone's heart DOES bleed in Genoa City, they will DIE because Devon HIT him!  Because Nate really is all that.  Losing the use of his right hand is going to make life difficult for him in other ways, too, and I don't mean the ability to pick his nose.  Nick would always do that for a bro.  It looks like Elena might be bunking with him soon so she can handle the other duties.

Wasn't that special the way Amanda flew to Devon's defense?  When she enumerated all the things he's been through in the recent past - losing Hilary and his unborn child, then losing Neil, then his fiancee cheating on him with his cousin, she forgot one other teeny, tiny thing.  Like the lawyer who came to town, working for a shady client, who didn't do her due diligence and then grifted and guilted him into giving up his inheritance from Katherine to a fraud and a faker.  And that lawyer never even apologized, though she DID handsomely accept his apology for ....... something........

Oh wait, that was YOU, Amanda.  Yeah, that Elena, she's just the worst thing that's happened to Devon, except for this one other person.....

I do have to say, no matter how I've tried not to, I really am enjoying Chance and Abby.   And I'm interested to see what Faith is up to.  Please, Show, let Devon stay mad for a while and don't match him up with Amanda too quickly.  Or at all.

Seeing her from the back made me wonder if she was wearing any undergarments at all. I can't imagine how TPTB would allow that though. It must've been the word's tiniest thong.

She's not going anywhere as she's Bryton's gal IRL. He's got some weird clout/sway with TPTB, so unless he falls out of favor or dumps her she'll have some sort of storyline. Even if they kill her off they'll probably resurrect her ass with a Hilary/Amanda bullshit storyline (again).

[CountryGirl]

Brytni really did sell her scenes and I have to imagine those weren't easy for her or RL love Bryton to do.

Although I wanted to kick her character in the crotch when she was whining about Nate's hand. You know, the thing he should have used that night instead of screwing his cousin's gal. And Devon's face said: "That's not the appendage I was going for." 

Also, I'm torn between thinking "karma is a bitch, Miss Devon!" and feeling empathy for him. Because as dirty as he did Neil with Hilary, I don't know that I can agree that he deserves this or can't be devastated by what transpired. 

[Kemper]

I don't know if it is Chloe's really long hair, her sweaters/tops, or what.  But it looks like she doesn't have a neck anymore.  Did she used to? Am I just imaging this?

[Waldo13]

Summer is as irrational as her mother and as thick headed as her father.  

Wow, the Teardrop of Love is cursed. Jack and Lauren came up with some kind of solution but we were not privy to what it was. If they thought it curses the owner, they probably sold it to Victor 😂.  But no, Jack had the setting made into individual pieces so the entire family could be cursed 😄. There is only one problem. If Lauren retained the main stone than the baguettes had to be used to make the individual pieces.  The stones of the earrings and the bracelet are too large to be baguettes.  But who am I to argue with TIIC.  All in all it was a very nice sentiment. 

Nate, nice try but no cigar in trying to explain to Devon that he was at fault. Hey Nate, it wasn’t rape. It was two consenting adults.

She's never had a neck.  I noticed this when she first came on the show, with short hair.  Either her neck is really short or she is constantly stressed out with her shoulders up.

All the more reason for Nick, Mariah or anyone Newman-adjacent not to believe a word Faith says. She was reliable and trustworthy, but has been emotionally distant and openly lying since Sharon's cancer diagnosis. Now she's sneaking out of the house after-hours to hang out in Chancellor Park with the mysterious texter.

Regardless of what Nick is planning for Faith, he should tell Sharon what is happening under her roof with their daughter. Sharon's not so debilitated from her treatments that she can't be told Faith is running around, lying and playing her family for fools.

Faith played the teen scene excuse with Mariah, the cancer card with Nick, thinking she's out of trouble. The hitch in Faith's Free Pass is that Mariah has no story of her own, so it's only a matter of time before she spills the beans to the oblivious Sharon. I expect Faith will end up in some shenanigans, get caught by Det. Rey Rey, and her chill façade falls down.

That was an excellent takedown by Mariah. And the appropriate target.

The Truth is the name for NotBilly's simmering revenge for all the people that he believes have never paid for all the wrongs he's suffered at their hands. 

Faith is demeaned and trolled ... Don't care.

Ashley is humiliated and embarrassed ... Don't care.

Chancellor dot Com skips away from lawsuits and Lily is forced to put out the remaining fires you started ... Don't care.

Victor and Nicki's Newman 'honor' is threatened, and they howl like like moth-eaten wildebeests ... That's fun, but don't care.

The cops are sniffing around for evidence against Atonal, wasting their time, and slowing down Chance Chancellor's career ambitions  ... Don't care.

Atonal Adam runs around, looking to cause more mayhem because he's a wounded animal and has nothing left to lose ... Expecting the worst and don't care. 

Essentially annoying everyone with the criminal history of a man most people conspicuously avoid ... Don't care.

The Truth is an indiscriminate personal weapon, not a force for enlightenment or social progress.

The doctor has a bandaged paw, and it was worth it to fuck his cousin's girlfriend, because he's always wanted Elena ... So says Nate Natey Nate Nate Nate. It was worth lying and dissembling, breaking up with Hillary 2.0, ruining Darvon's trust and his relationship with Elena ... All for luv.

Nate Natey Nate Nate Nate is a bore.

I almost felt sorry for Elena; sent packing from Darvon's digs, and stuck with Nate Natey Nate Nate Nate professing that fucking  ... oops ... 'making love' to her on an examination table has been his heart's desire.

<Urp>

Darvon is already on the road getting over Nate Natey Nate Nate Nate's sexual betrayal -- That seems to be a hallmark of the Hamilton/Winters family; the irony burns, as Lily pointed out. I expect Elena will be snubbed and derided as a slapper for much longer.

Oh wait, that was YOU, Amanda.  Yeah, that Elena, she's just the worst thing that's happened to Devon, except for this one other person.....

Hillary 2.0 has managed to sell herself on Darvon's nobility and availability. She's conveniently forgotten she was one if the people that plagued him, pursuing his legitimate inheritance and assisted in its theft -- Hillary 2.0 has never apologized or returned the money she earned from that fraud. 

It's easy for holier-than-thou Hillary 2,0 to point fingers and lay blame on Elena, and make herself available to Darvon -- Nature abhors a vacuum in Genoa City. Whether you're Hillary 1.0 or Hillary 2.0, taking advantage of low-hanging fruit like Darvon is an opportunity that cannot be ignored. Hillary 2.0 is well aware of how easily persuaded, gullible and in love Darvon is with Hillary 1.0 -- Hillary 2.0 is 3/4s of the way down the aisle.

This business deal should be a cinch, and Darvon will probably let Hillary 2.0 write the pre-nup.

Please, Show, let Devon stay mad for a while and don't match him up with Amanda too quickly.  Or at all.

After today, Darvon made an immediate turn to Hillary 2.0, and they are on their way to living the Lifestyle of Genoa City Billionaires.

Why didn't Lauren just give the necklace to Jack? I bet Neil Fenmore would've wanted Dina to have it.

And that there is the shrieking nutbag you wanted to marry, Kyle. The one who clearly didn't fall far from her mommy's nut-producing tree. If you were smart you'd consider the breakup a bullet dodged. If.

Was not a fan of Lauren's jacket today. When is that snakeskin print finally going to go out of style?

It's hard for me to imagine how Summer didn't know yet about Dina. The news would've been all over local media, and surely she would've spoken to Phyllis by now. What a self-centered loon.

So Theo doesn't get a piece of his grandmother's necklace? I would not have expected the Abbotts to be so thoughtlessly cruel. It's not Theo's fault his father was Dina's dirty little secret.

Kyle is still saying he didn't do anything. Ya got caught trying to run two women at the same time, fool!

Aw, Nate. You didn't make love to Elena, you had sex with her. Get over yourself. Or, get a couple billion dollars because Elena is used to the fahncy life now.

I guess EH definitely wanted us to see how quickly her post-partum body snapped back. 🙄

PB brought his "A" game today, especially during that quiet scene at the coffeehouse with Lauren. Bravo.

Ugh, Kyle and Summer deserve each other. Self-entitled wannabe studmuffin and developmentally-arrested mean girl. 😒 I hope when they do finally remarry, Abby and Chance send them a set of dull knives as a wedding gift.

So is anyone thinking TPTB might have a go at Jack/Lauren? I'm sensing something in the air.

I didn't see that, and Lauren spoke so warmly about her own relationship to Michael. Jack and Lauren have primarily been good friends, and collegial partners in the Jabot/Fenmore's business alliance.

I did think the jewelry Jack had made from Dina's necklace was a peculiar exchange. Unless if Jack is going without a custom piece, Theo seems to have been left out of Dina's legacy again by the Abbott's. Their dismissal of Theo's relationship has to be building into something ugly from TIIC.

I've been noticing it too and I hope it doesn't happen. I think at this point Jack deserves better than being the other man in a cheating situation. And didn't he and Lauren already have a brief fling back in the day?

Re Theo, I've seen a spumor elsewhere that he's going to go after Dina's estate. Guess the Abbotts might regret being so thoughtless when it would've cost them nothing to include him in their farewells and what not. I can't see Theo winning all of Dina's estate though unless he pays off a judge or something.

She's not going anywhere as she's Bryton's gal IRL. He's got some weird clout/sway with TPTB, so unless he falls out of favor or dumps her she'll have some sort of storyline. Even if they kill her off they'll probably resurrect her ass with a Hilary/Amanda bullshit storyline (again).

Yeah I know they’re a RL couple. That’s why they’re always shown being intimate. And I guess BS is doing a good job with the character, I just don’t like the character right now. Crying because she fucked Nate, like it was entirely his doing, is not a good look. And whining about Devon developing feelings for Amanda Because she looks like his dead wife just shows that Elena isn’t emotionally mature enough to have s meaningful relationship.  Now she’s likely succeeded in making sure he and Amanda hook up.

[KLovestoShop]

This show is now a big no for me.  They are shoving the boring Elena/Nate/Devon/Amanda story down our throats with stuff that has no basis in good storytelling.  I guess I'm just sick and tired of these writers having no imagination with their characters having twins---I like Mariah but the whole twin thing was never something I liked and Amanda being Hilary's twin is just a stupid ploy to bring back a character.  Can't stand Hannah Hair Shirt and her really unattractive dopey face.  And now, Devon is going to pull the "make her jealous" BS.  I'm just happy that Amanda called Devon out on his plan.

My other complaint is, Adumb now has his personal pant compass pointing towards Sharon.  Just a short while ago, the little compass was strictly for Chelsea, but she's no longer worthy of seeing the compass point north.  Totally stupid storyline.

[peacheslatour]

OMG, Chelzzz is going to gasp and pant herself into orbit this time.

After weeks of being away, I decided to take a peek and see this being speculated on:

Soap fans know.  So you see, Y&R.  I knew you would pull this BS on me and make me mad if I returned to watching.  Which is exactly why I didn't.  

Carry on.

She's never had a neck.  I noticed this when she first came on the show, with short hair.  Either her neck is really short or she is constantly stressed out with her shoulders up.

Well, lemme explain this anomaly.  See, Chloe was dropped off at the Elmira Gulch Home for Hopeless Wanderers when she was but a wee thing, pushed out of a moving car so hard she landed on her head and that pushed her lil' head so hard it sank down into her neck and since then all she can do if she wants to nod her head up and down is to fall over and get back up.  Washing her hair is a real bitch because since her head is no longer separated by her neck it grows down her back and she's tired, TIRED I TELL YOU of being mistaken for Cousin IT.  She asked for more gruel at the orphanage but without a neck she couldn't bend her head so the poor thing has only been able to eat things that are at chin height, hence gnawed doorjams, window ledges and Kevin's midriff area.  

At least, at the orphanage, she was assigned to the Victor Newman Memorial Room, where she was allowed to eat all the dirt she could scoop up with her paws, blame everyone else for her misfortunes and make terrible marital choices, like Alvin the Chipmunk ImeanKevin.

It's a wet day for ducks, preverts, a sad day for Chloe's.

[methodwriter85]

Not really watching but I did catch Faith and the texting thing. She's totally texting a girl, right? As a gay I've noticed that the actress had that whole baby lesbian energy and it'd be neat for Sharon to have two gay daughters. (Unless Mariah identifies as bi?)

 

[Kemper]

Granted, I have not been a lifetime watcher of this show, but I also feel that maybe the producers/writers are pushing for a Tracy/Jack coupling.  I didn't know that they had been together once before.  Briefly?  I don't want to sound mean...Tracy B R is a beautiful woman.  And more age appropriate than what they will probably bring on for Jack.  But the way they dress "Lauren" plus the hair = tacky.  Jack would never have a tacky significant other.  Would he?

[PatsyandEddie]

He was married to Phyllis once upon a time.

Jack was sleeping with Gloria, does she count as being a bit tacky? 

[Waldo13]

Rey thinks he’s hot shit but he’s just luke warm diarrhea with a Wyatt Earp complex.  

Usually the pity party has a table for one but today TIIC brought out the pity bus plus a wambulances for Elena and one for Nate.

I forgot to mention that when Faith was with an older woman named Jordan, Mariah nor Banana Breath asked Faith anything about Jordan.  Are TIIC going to recycle the Chrystal story?  Is Rey going to go all Bryan Mills on the Albanians to rescue her from a grossly fat smelly pedophile?  

[Gam2]

I watched that romantic proposal from Rey to Sharon today. He put the ring on the coffee table, she picked it up and put it on her own finger and they smiled at each other. These two actors are so dull, not invested in their characters and can barely muster any enthusiasm. Sharon says a line then Rey says one and then she says another one. They’re not even trying anymore.

[Joimiaroxeu]

I didn't realize Elena and Lola ever even met much less knew each other well enough to sit down for some girl talk. Wonder why it took this long for the showrunners to put them together?

Look at Devon going full baller with Amanda. Private jet, new clothes, Manhattan, all on his dime. Chile please. Amanda is not trying to be your rebound less than 24 hours after you quit Elena.

TMW you get home from visiting the troubled son you just banished to boarding school and your first thought is where your fiance is and what shite he's stirring up now.

Boo hoo, Elena. You are not the first person in history to get dumped because you cheated. And the person you cheated on is no stranger to doing romantic dirt either. He'll get over it eventually, especially if you turn up preggers. 🙄

And I see you, Amanda, offering Devon a sympathetic ear. If you were any more transparent you'd have to use Windex as a body wash. But go get that money, girl.

Yawn. Adam and Rey having a contest to see who can sell the most wolf tickets left me unimpressed. Why bother, especially when the "prize" is Sharon?

Sharon, Faith is a teenager. The last thing she probably wants to do is hang out with her mommy. When you were her age did you want to laze around on the couch watching old movies with Doris? 🤔

Lola. Kyle didn't cheat on you? Well, technically no but he jumped right back into Summer's cooch less than a day after you and he separated. Think about it.

Ouch, Chelsea! Bet that'll leave a mark, overhearing Adam not only dismiss you but do so in favor of your perennial blonde nemesis. And I wonder if Rey saw Chelsea standing there in the doorway? If so, foul on that last play, sir.

Aw, Rey. Sure hope you didn't go into major debt for the ring. Maybe you can write it off as a gambling loss on your taxes next year. 😉

A NYE wedding? Meh. In soapland, getting married on any major holiday pretty much guarantees that holiday will eventually feel ruined to the bride and/or groom forever.

TPTB must've decided BS needs to get a Daytime Emmy nomination for her portrayal of Elena. She's having all these big Acting! moments now. Okay. 😐

So does Chelsea bounce back to Nick? Hmm, she and Theo might make an interesting couple if she doesn't mind going with a younger guy. Imagine the shenanigans they could get into. 😉

I kept hoping he'd see her and play Atonal even harder than he already was. What a whiny little psychopath, it's impossible to feel anything but contempt for him.

Kyle/Lola and Kyle/Dummer are just variations of "blech" to me. Besides being cute-ish and driven occupationally, Lola's got very little going for her, she's as joyless a character as has ever been seen on daytime.
