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

[lgprimes]

About 15 years ago somebody I know was about to be arrested and tried to make a run for it. He eventually turned around and turned himself in. At his trial they called in a phone expert who could tell EXACTLY where he went that first day, by points from cell towers. If this were a real crime the cops would very easily be able to know that phone went from the apartment to the bridge to Sharon’s house. I can only suspend my disbelief so much.

[One Tough Cookie]

Chance, you fine looking devil you actually came up with a police question regorging Heather's password protection!   Color me surprised!

[pvandal]

I loved Chance's face in the last scene when Daniel told Summer and Phyllis they may have a lead. It was shooting daggers at Daniel like "Do NOT tell your mother anything...you know how she will go and f**k up any investigation I have started with her own "sluthing"." I mean Nick even told her to back off earlier.

And I'm guessing Faith has just dropped out of Michigan and is now full time at Panic About Mom University.

[Joimiaroxeu]

Has Ghoul Cameron has abandoned Sharon? Maybe even he's fed up with her, lol.

Phyllis agonizing over arranging a memorial service for Heather was a lot. She just has to keep some attention on herself.

Pshht, there is no way I'd be going out late at night to meet some rando who says they have my phone. They can hand it back to me in front of my local police station in broad daylight. These GC folks are too trusting.

Wait, if Summer was up in her GCAC suite wouldn't Chance have known that? How weird for him to watch Daniel send Lucy to see if Summer was there.

Claire in that short, bodycon dress. It's like she's daring Kyle to check her out, ha ha. Thirst-trapping little minx. 😉

Faith NOOOOO! You should not contact stalker Lucy! You don't want her using you as a distraction for her grief.

Yay, Chance is on the case, baby! Right away he knew the texts from Heather's phone were sus.

Real talk from Claire to Kyle about celebrating someone's misfortune. Kyle didn't do a great job of reassuring her that he's not a solid piece of nepo baby sh!t.

Annnddd he's back. Did Ghoul Cameron have to go have some dinner or something? This guy.

Gosh, I hope not. Faith never actually started her fall classes, did she? She can probably afford to skip a semester while she's helping Mariah and Nick worry about Sharon. At some point Noah needs to come back to GC too. Maybe after Sharon is arrested. 🤡

[surfgirl]

I know fucking JG is gonna put Faith and that little whinger, Lucy, together to be friends. And to that I say. 'Merde! Caca! Bullshit! Hell to the Naw! NFW! FTS! Bullocks!'

That's done when I get something from Ebay.  Any local station. Of course that limits me to something I'd really like but my attitude is better save than sorry. {also I have Mr. Cookie who is big and strong for back up.}

So, I am beginning to wonder of JG has some connection with a manufacturer of hair extensions? Everyone's hair his now long and stringy.

Rare sighting:  Someone {I forget who} was carrying Lilli's pregnancy purse.  And while we are on the subject of accessories those ;long dangling earrings have been worn but three different actresses.  Yeah, I notice stuff like that

I think for sure the show has a product placement deal for purses right now. Most of the actresses handle their bags in an affected way like they're posing for a camera shot.

Yep, I've noticed the earrings being passed around too. Hope the wardrobe people are sanitizing them between wearings.

The other thing I get a kick out of is this camisole most of the GC women have worn as a top at one time or another, going back several years. I did a deep dive on Worn on TV and Y&R seems to have bought the same version of that cami in multiple colors and sizes. Meanwhile, IRL I don't really see camis being worn much as tops currently so it always stands out to me.

Then maybe sometime next year, Sharon will be sitting in her coffee joint, gazing at Nick, who's giving one of his usual dumb-dumb looks . . . and she'll realize she's been dreaming. 

Anyone who remembers the hugely popular tv series Dallas (1978-1991) will remember how the death of Bobby Ewing (Patrick Duffy) and the entire ninth season (1985-1986) of the show was presented as having been a dream of Bobby's wife, Pam (Victoria Principal), in the premier episode of the tenth season which opened with Pam waking up to find Bobby taking a shower.

Why has Phyllis taken to whispering 90% of her lines?  She’s always leaning in to whomever she’s talking to and just whispers in a hushed manner.  Is this some new acting method?  
 

 

[ScoobieDoobs]

Idk, I could almost feel a teeny bit sorry for Audra.  Cuz Kyle was shitty to gloat & step on her.  But she did leave out that she's just as lowball & slimy as Vic & Pomp.  So no, I don't feel sorry for her in the least. 

Audra's narrative that she was mistreated, cuz she's woman, is off.  So is Kyle's narrative that she stole the company from Tuck.  It was never hers.  She had a shitty deal with Vic -- that was really her prob.  And also her ridiculous & deluded over-confidence in her lousy business acumen.

Also, Audra was giving Sally terrible advice.  Ignore that Adam told her he's still into Chelsea?  And pursue him relentlessly anyway?  Yeah, swell advice, Audra.  It's called stalking, hun.  And her squawking about getting back at Vic & Pomp?  How?  Everyone in town hates her guts, except Natey & Sally, and they can't help her.  What are they gonna do with this character now?

Oh Faith, resist calling Lucy, let alone going over to see her.  That drunk stalker lunatic will lock you in her room & do shots off your belly.  Eek!  Btw, hey, writers, sew up the hole left here & say that Faith is not going back to school!

Do the hair stylists hate Sharon?  She's reminding me of Gilda Radner doing Lisa Loopner.  And Phyllis's flat orange strings, parted in the middle, are reminding me of Marcia Brady.  WTF?

[ScoobieDoobs]

What the heck was up with Audra's puffed sleeve dress?  Er, put her hair in braids & she's . . . Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman-

[pvandal]

Today's preview on my DVR says "Victor causes mischief for the Abbotts". That makes it sounds like he's some cute little elf and not the aged ghoul he really is. Give me a break.

I am actually very much team Audra n in this situation. Sure she wanted to show she was better than Kyle, but she was actually coming up with business ideas. A new product, meeting with a distributor, etc.

 Kyle stooped to tattletaling and corporate theft. 
 

Also she is correct that his entire career has been handed to him on a silver platter. 
 

Such a whiny twerp. Even Little Miss Rose-Colored Glasses Claire is starting to see right through him.

In the Y&R universe, a few episodes amount to just one earth day.

After today's episode, I've decided that the fictional Genoa City on Y&R, unlike the actual Genoa City in Wisconsin, is exactly 3 square miles in size, hence the limited number of restaurants, parks and other gathering places the characters visit, and, again unlike the actual Genoa City in Wisconsin, Y&R Genoa City has a population of exactly 30 people.

Nope not even a little bit. Chris cousins is an excellent actor. He just isn’t being given anything to work with here.

[Joimiaroxeu]

Traci said Ashley would be back for Abby's wedding. Yay!

Phyllis can still miss me with her mea culpas regarding Heather's death. Seemed like Summer didn't have much time for it today either.

Ghoul Cameron needs to keep his ghoul shoes off Sharon's couch. So rude.

High-haired Michael has returned to Victor's good graces, conditionally anyway. Ya gotta have your consigliere on board to cover up your felonies, right Vic?

"Sharon's a trained therapist, and Alan's a psychologist." Yeah, except when Sharon is wandering around being an utter loon, and undead Martin is pretending to be his brother...maybe.

You'd think Diane and Jack would've asked to be seated at a table where they didn't have Victor in their line of sight. Talk about having your appetite ruined.

I dunno, I think Traci shacking up with her boyfriend is one thing but subjecting her family to him 24/7 is another. At least wait until you're engaged, Traci.

Poor Faith. She's overwhelmed by Sharon's mental troubles, even with Mariah and Nick providing their support. For her sake I hope this mess with Sharon doesn't drag on longer than a semester.

Dang, Diane and Jack made quite a spectacle of themselves in the middle of the GCAC dining room. Not a good look for one GC's elite families.

OH NO HE DIDN'T! Victor had the nerve to throw John Abbott's name in Jack's face. Get back in your lane, you nouveau riche motherfcuker. 👿👿👿

Chance should not be discussing an active felony investigation with Summer. He has to know she'll let some things slip to Daniel and Phyllis.

Well, Victor might be right about one thing: Jack shouldn't have let Diane fire Kyle. I still don't understand why Jack let that stand.

Chance. Heather was having a tryst down by the river? Sure, Detective, go for the least likely possibility.

Daniel seriously needs to stop going in the coffeehouse. It's not believable to me that someone in his position would be so obnoxious as to keep putting himself in Sharon's face.

Oy, Nick, you have made a bad mistake using the word "date" with nutbag Sharon. You have no idea how bad.

[Sweetpea4Utoo]

Suuuuuuuuuurrrrrreee you did,  Phyllis...

[Sweetpea4Utoo]

Never seen a table right in front of the door before!! (GC Athletic Club)

Who would want to sit there??!

Edited October 9 by Sweetpea4Utoo

[ScoobieDoobs]

Is Traci so smitten with Dead Martin that she took the shittiest table in da joint?  Ah, but then that's Traci -- she'd take the crap table no matter what.

Er, is Cousins a lousy actor?  Idk.  He is a very experienced actor, but is he any good?  I'm not sure.  Keep in mind, if this really is Dead Martin, then he's playing a total phony-baloney.  So in that sense, maybe he's getting this right, cuz, man, to me, he's coming off like such a total phony, I cringe every time he's on with Traci.  I still think when Ash comes back, she's gonna recognize fairly quickly this is NOT Alan.

Um, did Vic seem half-dead today or what?  EB's eyes were darting all over & he was mumbling/growling/croaking to Michael & half-slumped over.  WTF?  Really surprised he was able to stand up to say his snotty comments to Jackie.  And Jackie shoulda said to him -- "Go stumble off to the GC Nursing Home, old man!"  But EB certainly would NEVER allow a line calling him an old man . . . altho, didn't he call Michael that?  Er, huh?

So Sharon was sporting a side-pony today.  Did it look sorta cute, or did it make her look like more of a loon?  Or was she again, looking like Gilda Radner doing Lisa Loopner on SNL?

Daniel finally changed outta his ugly, ill-fitting shirt into an uglier, but better fitting shirt.  In fact, all the men were wearing dark ugly clothes, except for Chance's handsome safari jacket.

Oh yeah, looks like nicey-nice Diane (and NOBODY believed that act would last as long as it did) has left the building, and Big Bee-otch Diane is back in town, baby.  Good to have ya back, hun.

[ScoobieDoobs]

And Michael's legal assignment today was what exactly?  To make "corporate theft" not seem like corporate theft?  Mmmm, good luck with that assignment, Michael.  And this is what your career has come to, begging Vic to do lowball shit for him that could get you disbarred?  OK then.  Oh Lauren, ya may wanna take a break from picking out one of your one-shoulder cave-lady get-ups & take a look at what your hubby is up to.

And no, Pissade coming out with the stolen moisturizer first wouldn't necessarily knock out Jabot, as Michael suggested.  Jabot could still produce the moisturizer & given their ability to mass-produce, their established reputation & their marketing expertise, their moisturizer could still sell well.  This is either a writers' error or a hint that Kyle and Vic are heading for a downfall.

[boes]

I know that there's absolutely no shock value in pointing out Victor's hypocrisy at this moment in time, since it's been going on since this professional orphan landed his rat-catching ass in Genoa City, but really Victor?  You're going to taunt Jack with your confounded horror at Jack letting Kyle get fired because of the importance of family, when YOU, VICTOR, set up Adam on fake murder charges, let him be convicted and sent to prison???  That made him having Billy arrested at his wedding to Victoria seem like fun times.  And what's with his statement that Kyle is now loyal to him, as it should be?   Seems to me that Victor has been inhaling his own farts again.

Also, I could be wrong, but remember those scenes at the Abbott House, maybe last week, or the week before, when Jack ran into Billy?  Billy said he was there having breakfast with Traci.  Yet, today, Jack and Diane were acting as if Traci had been in Paris for a while and they were suprised to see her and whatshisname back.  Script error?  Or just the usual shitty writing?

I know it's too good to be true, but wouldn't it be great if Jack and Diane's fight was planned to give Victor a false sense of security, to fool Michael as well?  Wouldn't it be even better if Diane left her laptop at home and conveniently open so Kyle could steal some planted bad info?

Nah, no way.  That's what a good writer might do.

You're right! I'd completely forgotten Billy mentioned dropping by to see Traci. And he didn't say anything about Alan. Jack's reaction yesterday was a definite continuity error unless Billy came over to the mansion to FaceTime with Traci in Paris, lol.

I've read elsewhere that different storylines are handled by different people and JG's job is to put them together into a cohesive whole. Also, scenes aren't necessarily taped in the order the appear, depending on who's available when. It's a situation ripe for missteps.

[Foghorn Leghorn]

I thought Alan and Tracy went to California or New York after Paris for some reason….

I agree Diane and Jack having that major blowout in the restaurant was likely staged but they haven’t been agreeing in private either..oh the suspense!

If anyone is a bad actor on this show it is the guy playing Cole!  Victoria is giving vibes of not being head over heels.

Victoria still fretting over her grown-@$$ daughter's barely existent love life. Get a hobby, Vikki.

Man, Sharon was practically swooning in anticipation of her "date" with Nick. Meanwhile, he was at the coffeehouse acting like he was on his way to a hybrid car rally.

Cole. You absolutely do not stop someone from trying to get themselves a double-chocolate chip cookie! 😱 And ease up with DTR talk.

Chance said someone installed an app on Heather's phone to make it harder to track. So now Sharon's a tech genius too! Sure.

Mariah and Tessa. Presumptuous much? Claire acting as Harrison's nanny was a special circumstance, not an opportunity for you to take future advantage.

Holey moley, Sharon was coming on to Nick like he was what's for dessert and tomorrow's breakfast too. And he was completely oblivious.

Phew, I was about to be so mad if Nick decided to throw Sharon some mercy sex. Thank goodness Sharon was daydreaming again.

Aw, Faith, no. Your mommy needs professional help, not your daddy serving as her emotional crutch.

One thing I've learned at Law & Order night school is in the case of a suspicious death, the perp is usually the spouse of the victim. So Chance isn't entirely off-base suspecting Daniel, but gah!

Chance vs. Sharon, Round 1, LET'S GO! Loved the up and down look he gave her like, "What in the Fenmore's 2019 Black Friday Sale is going on here?"

SO WHERE THE HELL ARE ALL OF YOU?

[Joimiaroxeu]

Oh great, it's punchable face Kyle. 😒

Abby looked like she was ready for NYE in her sparkly silver top. Loved her necklace.

They lost their wedding venue? Abby and Devon live on the hallowed Chancellor Estate. You can't have a better place than that in GC but maybe Abby's superstitious, ha ha.

TMW you realize your former lover might dig up your recent criminal activities, in his official law enforcement capacity. Ruh roh, Sharon.

Jack. You said you were going to confront Kyle, "man-to-man, father-to-son." Well, one of those could work but you're gonna need a search party to find the man.

Hmm, I think Ghoul Cameron was blowing smoke up Sharon's behind. Chance definitely noticed how hard Sharon was trying to sound nonchalant.

Moisturizer combined with a high SPF suncreen? IMO that wasn't such a groundbreaking idea Kyle stole from Jabot for Glissade. Hey, Diane and Jack, Neutrogena sends its regards.

So what is this super secret perfect place Victor has for Abby and Devon's nuptials? I'm prepared to be underwhelmed.

Of course Victor wasn't going to be upfront with Devon about his plans to steal Devon's grandmother's legacy company. Devon is generally loathe to disagree with Victor but this could be a test of his loyalties.

Whatever, Kyle. Why is the bratty nepo baby even still living at the Abbott manse? AFAIC Jack needs to put Kyle's stuff out on the front lawn. Not including Harrison.

Yeah you are Victor's pawn, Kyle. His rook too. Jack ain't having it and you're now on your daddy's FAFO list.

Dang, in the final scene Sharon was straight-up channeling "I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille." Brava, SC.

So, TGVN has a super splendid, super secret venue for the wedding of the century ?? And it's in GC ?? Kathryn's Park ?? Behind the Newman Stables ?? Pony rides for all the kiddos ??

Abby could just close her own establishment for a day and host the event of her dreams right there.

TGVN is rich as He!! and could easily transport 200 guests to the currently underutilized  Villa in Tuscany that he gifted to Victoria. That would truly be a glorious wedding and reception and honeymoon !! If Vikki has any angst, she needn't attend, she really doesn't like Abby anyway.

[babyhouseman]

Maybe the wedding will be at the dungeon where Jordan was kept. Brussels sprouts for everyone!

[ScoobieDoobs]

Wow, it's astounding to me (but NOT surprising) just how stupid Kyle is.  He clearly didn't think out the consequences of stealing the Jabot SPF moisturizer & how easy it'll be to prove he did it.  But I had some thoughts on this, particularly involving Audra & Vic.

Vic will certainly be using Michael to keep him out of whatever criminal prosecution will center on Kyle.  And Kyle has very stupidly, & without any forethought, put a bright spotlight on the stolen moisturizer.  So prosecuting Kyle could totally be out of Jackie's hands & may fall right up to ambitious prosecutors.  Oh  Kyle -- dumb, dumb, dumb.  And yeah, Kyle, you are totally Vic's pawn, you dumb-dumb.

And Vic?  Wouldn't he know better than to eagerly be in any way involved in this obvious crime?  Welp, he did hold Jordie prisoner, so his judgement in what criminal behavior he can get away with is way, way off.

And Audra?  Vic did her a favor by firing her cuz now she has no involvement in this mess.  But can she enact her revenge on Kyle & Vic somehow?  Hmmm.

Ah, Nikki, Nikki, Nikki, can't keep a secret . . . even when you're supposedly sober?  Not good, hun.  Devon will figure your secret out quick & warn Lily.  The thing is, what can Lily do now?  The dope already gave away what she knows.

Devon & Abby wedding drama?  Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Vic was smiling so smugly, it made me wanna vomit.  Can't the writers take him down for a change -- or EB won't allow them to?

Idk, Sharon is just getting nuttier & nuttier & nuttier.  Guess SC should be sending Josh a thank you muffin basket for giving her something to do.  But from viewers, he deserves a tomato in the face for subjecting us to this shit for what'll probably be months.  Well, we are getting more Chance, so there is that.

Nikki and Victor publicly discussing him "giving" her a company which he is apparently planning to take from its owner is stupid anyway. So what if Kay originally left Chancellor to Victor? Jill owns it now and she might feel like, "No take backsies,  Vic."

Meanwhile, what Lily can do is call Jill. This whole storyline hinges upon having no one speak to Jill. Not her son, not her former employee, and not the guy who sold her the company free and clear. So stupid.

Odds are good Jill will come back to GC for Abby and Devon's wedding, right? Maybe everything will get settled then. Sure.

I suspect Jess Walton doesn't want to be on the show anymore cuz if she did, she'd be there.  Not everyone is like EB & wants to be there till they drop dead.  So yeah, Jill's involvement in the storyline leaves an obvious hole that needs to be patched up badly.  I wouldn't expect her back anytime soon, if at all.

Sounds like Dominic's now in his Terrible Twos. Good for him.

Nikki's hair. WTAF.

I don't know about Chance telling Daniel that Sharon said Heather and Daniel had been fighting. Seems like Chance is in a loop of running stories back and forth between Sharon and Daniel, in hopes one of them will trip themselves up and have to confess. Ehhh.

Wait until Kyle finds out Claire's been talking about him behind his back to Jack. IMO Claire should stay out of it unless she notices the Kyle/Jack tension is affecting Harrison.

Jack is getting what he deserves for what exactly? I don't understand what Victor meant when he told Nikki that was his motivation for grabbing Chancellor.

Giirrlll. Lily, you cannot be trying to issue ultimatums to TGVN. Victor ain't never gonna be scurred of you.

Sigh, Chance, you are the worst detective. It's more likely Daniel killed Heather than her having a secret boyfriend who did it. Maybe Chance needs a partner who can help him think things out.

Devon has an excellent read on what Victor is up to with Lily. But what can he do about it? Oh wait, he could contact Jill! 🙄

No, Jack! Do not use Claire as a weapon in your endless war with Victor. He'll just accuse you of trying to turn her against him. Claire has no idea how vindictive her grandpa can be.

That's right, Daniel. Chance better bring a search warrant if he wants to go on a fishing expedition through Heather's stuff.

Whoa, I did not expect Nikki to come clean with Lily about Chancellor. And AFAIC, her patronizing, fake sympathetic tone was poisonous icing on the confession cake. Victor will be hella pissed.

Re the previews: is Audra trying to curry favor with Jack or put a knife in Kyle's back?

 Oh yeah, what an awesome offer, Vic.  Getting Abby & Devon a wedding venue, but not telling them or any of their guests where it is?  Yup, real nice, but typical of control freak Vic.  And screwing over Devon's sister at the same time?  Also typical of Vic.  Hey, you wanna marry into this, Devon.  No wonder the little dude is so hostile & angry all the time . . .

Jack is getting what he deserves for what exactly? I don't understand what Victor meant when he told Nikki that was his motivation for grabbing Chancellor.

Giirrlll. Lily, you cannot be trying to issue ultimatums to TGVN. Victor ain't never gonna be scurred of you.

Re the previews: is Audra trying to curry favor with Jack or put a knife in Kyle's back?

Idk, I think Lils was merely puttin' her foot down & sayin' to Vic, "Listen, old man, I ain't supplying you with inside info & continue to give you my ideas & get bupkis in return -- that stops here & now!"  And Vic gave an annoyed look afterward, that said -- Oh shit, WTF am I gonna do now that I can't use this dumb bunny anymore?  Ah, so Claire, hun, your start date with Nikki is the 12th of never!

We didn't see Nikki's reaction after Vic said Jackie should "get what he deserves".  So does she still consider Jackie a friend (remember he coulda died trying to save her) & ignore threatening comments like that from her hubby?  How does she justify that . . . and her shitty/lowball behavior toward Lily?  Oh yeah, I forgot, she drinks!  To forget the monster she's married to?  Ya think?

Now, this may be a stretch, but what if Audra hits Jackie up for a job?  Hmmm.  Hey, did Jackie say the Jabot SPF moisturizer was their biggest launch in a decade -- or their ONLY launch in the last decade?  Either way, maybe they could use Audra to drag them outta what sounds like a stodgy rut.

I’ve been on vacation so I haven’t watched for 2 weeks. I’m a little out of practice for snarking. 

With that said, I’m only going to make one snark.

It’s actually Jack that threw Kyle into Victor’s arms. Jack made Diane the Co-CEO instead of him and backed Diane when she fired Kyle. It was personal pride for Diane knowing that Kyle was better suited for the job.  It was Diane and Jack that caused the rift. Victor could not have taken advantage of Kyle otherwise.
