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

Agree, although Brad was with AH’s Victoria. He was never paired with Katie Tom’s Victoria, but $ Bill has been on again off again with HT as B & B’s Katie for years. 

That's right. I wonder if they reminisce about their time on Y&R?

[Waldo13]

Just when you think your having a good day, Summer is there to shit on your parade.

The two divas. Gloria is over dramatic and Phyllis is over animated. They both suck up all the oxygen in the room.  Has Summer gone to the acting school of Phyllis. She’s starting to become a little to animated herself. To think of it, Phyllis and Summer are using animation to to detract that they suck at acting and in life.  

Summer being obsessed with Sally is about as stupid as Abby being obsessed with having a baby. Summer is not affected by Sally one way or another except in her selfishness and Abby’s selfishness is not even waiting a month to give Chance a chance to come home (not happening) and see if they can share the experience from the get go. 

And there we have it again, secret information being passed in a public space. I knew there was something in Kyle’s past that was going to come out but once Theo talked about the affair Kyle had with a married woman, I had a gut feeling a child was going to be involved.  That’s the standard go to for TIIC. 

Adam is a little all over the place with his impatience also. On one hand it’s hate for Sharon and on the other hand it’s love for Conor. Sharon is right for the first time with Conor being traumatized by seeing his mother in this state.

Maybe Nina can convince Ronan to be the donor.  He's not only a half brother, he has Chance's liver.  I'm bad with fractions, but 1/2 + 1/liver = more DNA than some random stranger.  Plus, Victor and Jack may still have some sperm banked.  What if Abby accimadentally got one of those samples?  It can happen!  On soaps, anyway... Taylor was getting IVF on B&B, and the lab used Brooke's egg by mistake.  Ooops!  Wrong Mrs. Forrester!   

Quoting myself to say, just for the record, I was not suggesting that Abby choose Victor or Jack as a donor.  But at Genital City Memorial Savings and Loan, some underpaid lab rat will see "Newman Sample" or "Abbott Sample" and think it belongs in Abby Newman Abbott Chancellor's petrie dish.  Hijinks ensue...

So Adam, not-a-therapist, is advising Sharon, barely-a-therapist, on how to treat Chelsea's condition. I don't know who I want dead more, him or her. Gee, if Adam and Sharon want to get a literal rise out of Chelsea maybe they should just start fcuking on the couch in front of her. 😒

I'm hoping that Adam and Sharon go on a joint shopping trip to Rexx Rugs and when they're done, wait right outside the store in the street, blindfolded, for their Uber to arrive.  Driven by Phyllis.  And THIS time, Phyllis, really step on the gas.

Chelsea had the stroke and Adam still manages to make it all about him.  And what school of psychiatry endorses torturing the patient as a therapeutic treatment anyway?  

Sharon becomes more demented every day, with the wide eyes and the slow blinking and the Hannibal Lector-like glistening lips as she talks to Chelsea like she's her pet guppy.  Then Adam does his bobblehead I'm-not-a-doctor-in-real-life-but-I-play-a raging-asshole-on-tv impression, telling Sharon that he KNOWS it's hard for her to be mean because it goes against her nature while Sharon tosses her hair around, purses her lips and gives the Awwww Shucks, wanna fuck? look back at him.  Adam oh Adam, Sharon is just as mean as you, she just cloaks it in expert passive-aggressiveness and too much lip gloss.  

They are both insane. 

I can't remember - what exactly did Sally do to Dummer, other than exist and not bow to the mutant offspring of a dumpster diver and a refugee from Meerkat Manor as if she's royalty?  It's as rich as it is ridiculous for Dummer - or Kyle - to act superior to Sally or anyone considering the shady shit they've pulled and the unwarranted good fortune they enjoy just because they don't like her.  Nothing Dummer does improves with age, unless it's her startling resemblance to a rabid Christmas goose.   She'd be acting the part of a Disney character with no need of a costume if she wasn't the granddaugher of the head of the Rural Wisconsin Cheese Mafia.  You got that?

Quote

Oh yeah, baby! Jack's got a grandson! Too bad it's by a skanky, married Hamptons cougar whose husband already sounds like another Victor. But I'll take it, even with the messiness. Let the games begin! 🥳

A bouncing baby Kyle!  No DNA needed if the lil' tyke looks like Kyle with chipmunk jowls and a bouffant like an extra in a John Waters film.

Lola should be buying a years worth of Masses and bathing in holy water, thanking heaven that she got away from this guy.  

I didn't mind seeing Theo today, he and Sally were sorta funny together.  He should stop by every six months or so.

I tried to think of one good thing Summer has done and it was really, really hard to find anything. I would say when she donated a piece of her liver to save Lola's life but she ended up using that to force Kyle to break up with Lola and marry her. Again, why doesn't Kyle remember this and the other selfish, lamebrain things that she has done for funsies.

Yeah maybe I’ll be back in time to help with the diapers.. or college tuition.  But this will be “our dream child”, right? Uhhuh yeah see ya... whenever.., good luck

I look for MO's hubby to come back as Chance. Abby - maybe you should realize that someone is trying to tell you something....The baby thing can wait...get on an adoption list and maybe something will come up. Ask unca Billy where to buy a baby.

That would be amazing! Then maybe she'd have a tall little boy with a deep voice that makes the little girls in kindergarten swoon. 🤤 It's not clear to me on IMDb whether Jeff Branson is working now so maybe Y&R could get him to do a guest shot.

Ehhhh, Jack is her uncle and Victor is her father. I'm thinking either of those scenarios would be all kinds of illegal, no? Yikes!

Ronan - did he have a genetic liver problem. Otherwise he could come back and comfort  Abby through the surrogacy thing and end up sleeping with her. fun

Jack's sperm wouldn't be as yucky as Pricks as Jack isn't really her blood.

This is the hospital where an especially manic Sharon changed DNA results by herself. You can't go into Lowes and change a blind order without three passwords and a red vest. So yeah

It's just there are SO few men Abby isn't related to. 

If Mop want Nostrils back - just hire an escort and flash him around town, and before you can sing 'Call Me' Billy will be jumping into bed between you screaming "MY KIDS"

As for Faith - rich people would have Long Since had detectives investigating "Miss Bad Influence" - Really she - Faith - would have a driver/bodyguard. Wana bet MBI had a dad (Maybe the embezler) fired by the Newmans.

Yeah, he'll have the Abbott bouffant for sure. I predict he'll look something like this:

He's going to be a Big Boy!

[gingerella]

What the fuckity fuck am I watching now?!? This show is just erratic, like Big Red SyPhyllis waving her limbs around like an animated scarecrow. JeezUS!

First of all, did they get rid of Chancey boy because he was a moronic covidiot? If so, I'm down with that because we don't need people in the public eye spewing wrong/negative information to the public about Covid precautions. So if he's been fired - has he? - and this is why, then I say good for CBS for finally doing the right thing. God knows they have a lot to atone for vis a vis the #metoo movement issues, at least they got this one right. If he wasn't let go, maybe the idiot has gotten reinfected? Now re: the scAbby 'go ahead and get yerself preggers girl, and maaybe I'll be back again some day...' storyline is MORONIC. As others have said, he said his situation could reverse itself so, yanno, wait girl. This should have been enough to make Mariah say 'pass', but nope, these stupids are going forward. DUH.

So I guess there was a straw drawing contest for the new Queen of scene-chewing and Sally Spectra won, and Jazz Hands SyPh has been relegated to old ham in the hotel now? Sally is boring AF, totally predictable, and who gives a shit about this character? Not me, do any of you? I'm sure one of the MWTs thought she was the next gen SyPh but, uhhh, NO. She's awful. She was awful on B&B and she's awful on Y&R, and I gotta give some of that credit to the actress too. Right now I don't wanna see villains. We're all still in the throes of a global pandemic, we can't see our loved ones, can't go out for entertainment like we used to pre-COVID, can't travel, etc. etc. etc. So yeah, I don't need a new villain on Y&R, thanks very much. How about instead of Sally, we get some writers who, yanno, can, oh I don't know, WRITE a decent story line that makes sense? That would be nice. It says a lot, and none of it good, when I'm liking Dummer as a reprieve from Sally, just sayin'.

Mop-the-Cockblocker is just all kinds of boring to me. She's so transparent it's just pathetic and sad. And how Billyboy can't see it is beyond me. Speaking of Mop's cockblocking attempts, man, is it me or is that kid playing Johnny reallllllly bad at acting?!? Like, REAL bad.

I just can't even with Sharon/Adam/Chels, the entire storyline is riDONKulous. BUT...the teensy tiny silver lining is Chels shutting the fuck up. At least we have that, amiright?! The day they showed her walking and jumping out of her chair I was like, "Noooooooooooo, it's too soon, I'm enjoying her silence!" and then it was a dream and I thanked baby jesus for that crumb of a dream sequence...And are there any other therapists, like real ones, in GC, other than Sharon? I used to like her but damn if she's working my last nerve right now.

Faith...jeebus...just put her in therapy and/or send her back to boarding school already, enough with the coddling and being 'understanding parents'. For once, Sharon is actually the voice of reason here, bust her and TELL HER what she's going to do, and stop asking for her input because she's lying, like, all the time. And that 'friend' needs to go. Call her parents and bust HER too. This whole story is just being so poorly handled. What's next, Faith gets roofied and knocked up? Because that's where a kid like this is headed, and again, I'm not interested in a depressing storyline like that right now.

I snicker every time Drinkki tries to work her 'grandma magic' and Faith snows her over with her lies. Yeah Drinkki, try again. Where's Pricktor lately? Did he take a sabatical again? Is he cutting out snowflakes in the barn?

And where is Lola hiding lately? She's barely there now, but everyone hangs out in her restaurant. Speaking of, I thought greaseball Theo had been shit-canned so I was surprised to see him making an appearance with his lame Kyle dirt. So Sally will leak this story about Kyle and get him kidnapped or seriously injured by this psycho husband, we can see your stories from a mile away writers, because they're written at a third graders level.

Oh yeah, and the HoLarryCurly Redux/Darvon/Elena/Natey Nate Nate storyline? Please, enough with Elena being a human ping pong for these two goons. And because it can't be said enough, Elena's new hair cut is just all kinds of awful. These two idjits are headed for eternal break-ups and get back togethers, so just do it already and spare us viewers the details.

What else can I slag on? Pretty much all of it, but I'll stop here....No wait, I forgot! The Jack/Sally thing? Do NOT make this happen, blerg and 🤮!

I don't know. Anything involving MS gives me a tic and I rub my temples until she's gone. I do recollect Phyllis skulking around Society and Crimson Lights to annoy people in the last two weeks. Inserted to punctuate a Dead End SL by TIIC, I assume

Most of the time TIIC have the cast of Y&R go to The Phoenix so Phyllis can verbally attack or interrogate them. 

It's fascinating how TIIC think abusing customers makes Phyllis a brilliant business woman in the hospitality industry.

That lone extra, walking back and forth, hour after hour, day after day at the Grubby Porno, dressed only in that green/gray dress is a Wisconsin apparition, doomed to walk the lobby of Phyllis's hotel.  She is also the most interesting character there.

Indeed.  And both her shoulders must get cold whenever the front door opens as she walks by to use either the stage right or stage left house phone.  Who is she calling?  Herself?  Most modern day concierges use cell phones.  It seems a bit rude that none of the hotel owners or guests ever acknowledge her with a nod or smile as she passes by.

I like how the actress has apparently become aware that people on soap forums have become obsessed with her, and she'll occasionally look right into the camera like, "why u mad tho?" On one forum in particular posters have lost their minds over this extra, ragging on her outfit, her hair, the way she walks, her facial expressions, every little thing. I even saw the word "uppity" dropped into a thread. Yeah. 😒

I'm not sure checking in at the bar would be legal IRL because it would be really easy for someone underaged to get served accidentally. I think the bar and the check-in desk are intended to be two separate locations but the cheap-a$$ show is using the same set for both. Kind of like how there's probably only one hotel room set with 47 characters using it because half the town apparently lives at the hotel now.

The location of the bar seems all wrong. Even in LV or Atlantic City I’ve never seen a bar given a prime location at the lobby’s entrance. The GCAC at least had a hallway before you got to the bar. Until The Grand Albatross became the “hot spot”, the GCAC was the go to residency but I don’t remember it having a check in for a room.  The bar was actually in the dining room and had tables to sit at for food and drink. The Grand Albatross’ dining room is hidden therefore you have to sit on a few lobby chairs to discuss confidential business.  Everything about the Grand Albatross is bogus including Phyllis.

Kyle dearie, before you run off like a chicken with its head cut off and blab to Sum-Sum, why don't you try phoning your ex-cougar to find out if, indeed, the spawn is yours.  Then you can panic. 

I don't think your dad will be THAT hard on you, since your half-brother (you know, Keemo that we don't talk about) is also out-of-wedlock.  Oh, wait, weren't YOU out of wedlock, too, and at one point thought to be Victor's.

Ew, I don't think poop brown is a good color for Phyllis. I'm thinking she's full of enough of it as it is. 💩💩💩💩💩

Kyle doesn't have his own office or do overseas calls only come into the Jabot conference room?

But wow is that fuchsia a great color for Nikki. I always love her in bright jewel tones.

Wait a minute, I thought Billy had just agreed with Victoria to keep Lily away from the kids? And geez, who's running NE while Victoria is running all over town stalking Billy?

Theo busting in like:

Mention of Tara Locke = Kyle trying to swallow his entire body and disappear into another dimension. Whee!

Harrison. Aw, I love the little tyke already. But Kyle didn't know he had a kid? I thought he was supposed to have been besotted with the married woman. Wonder who dumped whom and why?

Oh Summer. Boy is your perfect world about to come crashing down. And what was she drinking, liquid cherry jello? 🤮

That's it for Theo? He basically only provided an exposition dump to set a new storyline in motion. I wanted him to stick around for a while.

Technically Kyle is correct. The man Tara Locke was married to when she gave birth to wee Harrison is legally considered the boy's father. It's tough to get that changed unless Ashton Locke gets a DNA test proving he's not Harrison's father and he agrees to give up his parental rights. At least that what I've learned in my advanced courses at Soap Opera College and Law & Order University.

What was Abby wearing, velour or crushed velvet? Bleh. Heh, the Newmans were saying all the right things but IMO they didn't seem 100% sold on her plans to use a sperm donor in Chance's absence. They know how out-of-bounds sperm bank shenanigans can go, witness Abby and Kyle. And Abby better make sure her donor hasn't already fathered dozens of children or her kid will have to DNA test everyone they date.

So what will be Victoria's next move, forbid Johnny from telling Kate about Billy and Lily? She's such a wackadoodle. 🥴

Can Phyllis just graciously accept Olive Oyl’s apology?  Of course not. It’s not in her DNA.  

Olive is obnoxious but Olive stalking is way over the top.  

I wonder if Summer is wearing flannel granny panties to keep her hooch warm on a cold Wisconsin evening.  Imagine Summer and Phyllis not on their high horses and not calling the kettle black. I’ll wait 🤔...... times up. No nada not at all no way. 

Why is Sally shooting herself in the foot by allowing Theo to reveal Kyle’s little secret. I would of held that information for a Summer Day.  Why would Sally think that Kyle wouldn’t tell Summer. The extra is standing within ear shot of Summer and Kyle but they think that they have the cone of silence around them. I’m surprised that they actually moved their conversation. 

Nikki, you are not without original sin. You’ve cased a lot of family chaos yourself.  You don’t have a leg to stand on in your hypocrisy.  

The best part of any episode is that I watch it on my DVR.  FF is fun but what is more fun is freeze framing on Phyllis’ and Summer’s faces and making up captions. It makes them much more interesting. Give it a try.

I liked Theo and thought the Abbotts gave him a raw deal.  For some reason I thought all along Kyle had spawned. I visualized a poor girl he paid off to get rid of it, who got into drugs and was abandoned. you know sitting in Central Park singing 'I dreamed a dream" while dying from an overdose.

Ashton Locke will somehow get wind of Cuckolding Kyle and things will get uglier than Dummers lip gloss. Crazy Hubby will bring down hell on Kyle and somehow Kyle will end up with the kid - who of course will be a little monster.  Unless mummy breezes into town and decides she wants Kyle.

Where is Ronan? He'd be a natual choice and unless his liver issues are a problem. Bonus he and Abby should hit the sheets about the time Chance returns. Or he could bond with Lola over Liver issues. This show needs some fresh blood.

This comment isn't specific to this episode - especially not this episode - but I've really been enjoying Nikki's matriarchal role these past months.  When she starts billing and cooing with that vampire bat she's married to, that's hard to listen to - but otherwise I enjoy her in pretty much every scene.  She's doing the maternal matriarch thing really well and it's a pleasure to see her just flow with it.

Did ButtBiscuit sleep face down in a bed or rocks or maybe drive to work with his head out the window, tongue flapping in the wind, trying to catch some bugs for breakfast?  He looked rough, as if he'd used sandpaper instead of a washcloth for his morning flea bath.  

What the hell is Lily doing, showing Johnny a puppy video?  Does nobody there remember what happened the last time ButtBiscuit got his kid a dog?  No stopping for ice cream this time ButtBiscuit! 

If Lily does stick with ButtBiscuit she's going to have to dog proof wherever they live.

ButtBiscuit!  Stop that RIGHT NOW!  How quickly Victoria forgets what living with him is REALLY like.

It's strange what a pleasure it was to see the Oilliebollen King of Paris stick it to Kyle, considering how much I disliked Theo before.  Now that Kyle has become such a horror, I could watch Theo torture him all day.

What I wouldn't give for Show to cast Kathy Bates as Kyle's baby mama.  What I wouldn't give to see her eat him alive.

Oh Kyle, there's someone at the door for you!  And she's brought her little boy Harrison to meet you!  

Kyle?  Kyle?  Where are you? Where did you go??

Come in a take a seat.  I'm sure he'll be down in a second.  Can I take your sledgehammer? No?  How about a little herbal tea?

Kyle having a kid opens up a lot of interesting story but it would've been more interesting if he was still married to Lola. 

Imagine them talking about having kids, maybe Lola has been told that due to her liver transplant that it would be risky for her and the baby. She consoles herself by saying they can adopt and in the meantime she wants to focus on Society and then BAM! Theo drops the bomb and suddenly a chicken of Kyle's himbo times that Lola judged him for has come home to roost and Kyle is blindsided that his former lover (who he fell for) actually had his kid.  Lola's feelings are complicated in that she had convinced herself that she was okay with not having bio kids with Kyle but now that he has his own, it does hurt.  The marriage begins to weaken; Summer and/or Theo lay in wait to be the sympathetic ear to the couple.

As it stands, it's still good soap- especially if the baby momma comes to town with the kid with her ruthless estranged husband in tow who is ready to go after Kyle every way he knows how -including Jabot.  This really pulls in Jack trying to protect his son and their company.  Also estranged hubby can be paired with any number of women on the show - Victoria, Phyllis, Jill - while Kyle's baby momma, you guessed it, can be for Kyle OR Jack (after her gets over his suspicions about her relationship with Kyle and keeping Harrison's paternity a secret).  Summer has a legit rival for Kyle now that the woman has a son with him and apparently Kyle really fell for her but they broke up and the big question is why and do they still have feelings for each other.

Theo made Kyle interesting again. I'm here for it.

I'm seeing Vanessa Marcil and Ted King as the baby momma and her crazy husband. They did it on GH, then can do it on Y&R, LOL.

And props to whoever said they need to bring Ronan back for Abby, stat. That could be something of a pairing and drama for when Chance finally returns.

I love all your ideas, especially the casting for the Lockes.  I didn't watch GH but Ted King was wonderful on OLTL. 

I'd much rather it be Lola rather than Dummer being impacted by news like this.  With Dummer, it's going to have all the emotional impact of Daisy Duck finding out Donald cheated on her with Minnie Mouse.

Wow, CBS really pranked me today. Mind you, I only watch the first half of the show if at all lately, so sometimes I'm a little surprised. Today opened with an old episode that had Victor and his mother and Mrs. Chancellor in it. I thought, oh no did EB die? Then it turned out to be a flashback in a scene where they were all sitting around at a fancy dinner party. Phew. Then I noticed NoChanceInHell sitting at the table and thought, hey didn't he just leave on a secret mission? Was this episode taped out of order? Then I realized the party was to celebrate Victor, and that this was an old episode. So of course I thought, oh no did EB die? Then after a half hour of watching flashbacks within flashbacks and thinking I better get googling EB and check in with the preverts, they cut in with live news coverage of what's going on in Washington DC. Whew. Ya really got me, CBS. But maybe next time you pull a stunt like this don't focus on the oldest cast member, just pick some goofy wedding episode.

We didn't have it at all. I guess there's some trial or something.

I watched Monday's ep. Now can that be the last time we see oily balls Vanderway? 

I didn't have an issue with Sally on B&B but on here she feels and looks so out of place. I would've respected her more if she stood her ground in L.A against Felony Flo and other people that wronged her. And like it or not Sally is likely going to be portrayed as the villain in this storyline because the writers are dumb and don't know what else to do with her. 

MS acting has gotten weirder since I last watched, holy cow. I kind of miss GT's Phyllis now. I guess Phyllis is embracing being public enemy number one again, oh well.... 

Unpopular opinion: But Kyle and Summer going through this secret baby storyline is ok. They both have done stupid things but Summer's hoe phase never resulted in a pregnancy (so far at least), unlike her mother and now Kyle. So, from that angle it will be interesting to see how it plays out between them. 

I hardly doubt that Tara Locke can have too many redeeming qualities considering she's the type of chick to step out on her husband with no protection (thus increasing the danger of bring home an STD), get pregnant and allow said husband to raise/love a kid that she knew wasn't his, while keeping him in the dark. This lady sounds like a real bitch already lol 

If anything Kyle should be worried that Tara's husband, when/if he divorces her, will go after Summer (whether romantically or to do her harm or both if he's crazy enough). More worried than Summer should be about Tara going after Kyle if she showed up in GC.

I hope they do just that. It would be amusing to see TGVN go up against someone not named Abbott.

Oh, how I wished that Summer had ended up pregnant by Billy only for it to finally torpedo him with Victoria, enraged Nick beyond comprehension, and give Victor legit reason to hate his guts and destroy him and everything Abbott. Abby and Ashley wouldn't be able to hold the old fart back.

And I totally get that Summer was a grown (dumb) woman and makes her own choices, but Billy's actions and motivations were wholly despicable and vile and legit worthy of a number of people kicking his ass.

Summer dealing with a pregnancy and trying to decide whether to keep it or have the kid (thought her naming Kyle as the dad would've been interesting and begging him to go along with it since it all happened because of their 'bet') and it being a maturing event for her where I could possibly start rooting for her if she didn't use the kid as a weapon. Summer beating Noah to having a kid would've been something and making Phyllis an onscreen grandma to her lover's child? Drama!

Yeah, I thought I was the only one who thought Billy was the way bigger asshole in that situation, and a punk at that seeing as how he didn't really go after Nick or Phyllis and they are the ones that actually "hurt" him. Summer was/is young enough to be his niece and he should've had more sense but this is Buttbiscuit we are talking about there so.....yeah......lol. I would've thoroughly enjoyed seeing Victor and Nick and anyone else ripping him to shreds, and you're 100% right no one would save him, not Jack, Ashley, Abby or even Tracy.  

Also Victoria secretly pining after him makes me cringe I haven't liked Villy or Billtoria or what have you since the old Billy with Blonde hair (I forgot his name) and even then it was barely. I do find it hilarious that Victoria doesn't like Lily and Billy to together. Didn't Victoria (played by Heather Tom) sleep with her dad when Lily was a kid? Lmao 

I'm happy Summer wasn't pregnant lol yuck! Y&R needs to find a better more clear way for Summer to get a clue and mature though, I just wonder if it isn't too late like it is for Phyllis.

Yep. Being a mother didn't mature Phylthy one iota. If anything it made her even more loony.

[deirdra]

What's ironic is that as children, both Kyle and Summer were unaware that their biodads (Jack, Nick) were not their Dads du jour (Victor, Jack).  So little Abbott Lochnessmonster will fit right in.

Summer is going to "rip Sally to shreds"?  She's not a pack of lip gloss, so good luck with that.  

I'm honestly confused that we're supposed to see either Summer/Kyle as in the right, or at the very worst equal with Sally.  Those two are trash, and it seems like everyone forgot about what an evil monster Summer was when she came back to town, since she got away with everything.

Poor Jack, he's trying to the do the right thing.  Dude should just go for it.

Can Phyllis just graciously accept Olive Oyl’s apology?  Of course not. It’s not in her DNA.  

Olive is obnoxious but Olive stalking is way over the top.  

I wonder if Summer is wearing flannel granny panties to keep her hooch warm on a cold Wisconsin evening.  Imagine Summer and Phyllis not on their high horses and not calling the kettle black. I’ll wait 🤔...... times up. No nada not at all no way. 

Why is Sally shooting herself in the foot by allowing Theo to reveal Kyle’s little secret. I would of held that information for a Summer Day.  Why would Sally think that Kyle wouldn’t tell Summer. The extra is standing within ear shot of Summer and Kyle but they think that they have the cone of silence around them. I’m surprised that they actually moved their conversation. 

Nikki, you are not without original sin. You’ve cased a lot of family chaos yourself.  You don’t have a leg to stand on in your hypocrisy.  

The best part of any episode is that I watch it on my DVR.  FF is fun but what is more fun is freeze framing on Phyllis’ and Summer’s faces and making up captions. It makes them much more interesting. Give it a try. 

I've done that. Phyl is mid-weird-face when ever you stop

Technically Kyle is correct. The man Tara Locke was married to when she gave birth to wee Harrison is legally considered the boy's father. It's tough to get that changed unless Ashton Locke gets a DNA test proving he's not Harrison's father and he agrees to give up his parental rights. At least that what I've learned in my advanced courses at Soap Opera College and Law & Order University.

And that's only if the judge agrees that it's in the best interests of the child (in most states).

 

Also, I enjoy pop-up Theo.
