Seriously, who would've thought Lily's romantic life would peak with the guy she married at 18 (17?) who ended up leaving her because of his porn addition for Amber fecking Moore?

Sad!

Apparently Daniel ruined her for other men. She's been with Kevin, Cane and maybe his twin when he was pretending to be Cane - I'm not sure, Buttbuscuit, it's just a sad list.

I like the chemistry between Jack and Sally.

I’d like it too if she didn’t overact so much. She’s just too much of everything. She didn’t do this on B&B so I liked her much more on that show. How about just a quiet cup of coffee at CL and a nice conversation with Jack? Huh?

This drives me absolutely crazy. MTS is a beautiful, elegant woman but they dress her like a overripe, singles cruise social director.

The styling for women in the dread "over 50" age group on soaps is terrible.  On GH, they have made Laura so dowdy.  Nicky's wardrobe is almost criminal; same with the actress who plays Brooke on B&B.  On that note...another rant about age...

I don't like "Sally" ... but I like the actress.  She is way over-styled and her mannerisms are over-the-top.  It is mostly due to the writing, I think; what I really would love is for her to make a play for Billy or Adam.  My issues...is that Jack deserves better.  When he finds out (and you know he will) the hand that Sally had in Summer's departure it will break him.  Again - like he hasn't been run over enough by the women on this soap.  Surely there is a sexy, beautiful, lively actress over 50 that would be perfect for him - give him some true happiness for a change.  At this point, over 45 would do. 

Would still love to see Sally "vamp" Billy.  Show is missing a great storyline in this; plus it would take the smug off of Lily's face. Pair her with Adam.  That would make everyone's head explode.  And how about giving Kyle and Tara less airtime?  I am sick to death of her creeping about the Abbott mansion (whoever compared her to Mrs. Danvers from Rebecca was spot on); and I am sick of his "sad" face, bad acting and over-styled hair.

I feel better.  Happy 4th!

Oh nooooooooooooo, I'd rather see Sally go back with Wyatt before either of those two 😭

[Chatty Cake]

I like Sally and Jack. Especially as it upsets Phyllis. 
So Billy and Lily just gossip all day? They aren’t very exciting as a couple. 
I realize the actress is pregnant but Chelseas outfit is tired. First she was in that brown track suit forever and now this uniform.

[Gam2]

Phyllis gets more and more over the top every day. How does she expect people to take her seriously when she’s so nosy and opinionated? I was glad to hear Jack tell her to mind her own damn business today. She needs a long vacation because she’s losing her mind.

First she’s all horny talking to Nick. Then she’s ranting at the coffee shop green with envy over Jack and Sally. She looked like a lunatic.

[TobinAlbers]

I need someone to take Billy down because he is the WORST. 

He exposes his nephew’s affair, bastardizing Harrison for the world to see.

But, oh, see, Billy takes all precautions to protect the kids, see?

He paints his ex-wife and mother of his kids as the other woman in Ashland’s divorce.

But, again, he’s not hurting his kids at all by this. He’s not using his power as a weapon to teach her a lesson, oh no,

He finds out a man has late stage cancer and is dying and can only think of how to use it to his advantage to take out Victor and Adam who he knows is gunning for him.

But this story was all about telling the world the truth and exposing lies.

His partner - who faced the grim diagnosis of cancer at a young age- actually takes a moment to be human and all Billy can do is nominally acknowledge it before continuing down his selfish line of thinking trying to disguise it as his trying to ‘protect’ Victoria. 

Oh, and this venture of his to protect Victoria by gobbling up the dying Ashland’s  company? He plans to ask his brother- whose son he just shat on - for the money! Not using his capital because he ain’t got none! And if Jack won’t give it to him then he’ll run to mommy.

Billy ain’t nothing but 💩 in an expensive suit.

Hes been through hell in losing Delia, but his actions can only be explained so much off of that. He’s morphed into an irredeemable asshat only out for revenge and he needs to be taken out and down a peg. How Lily keeps making excuses for him, I don’t know. How she can’t see how he’s dragging her into the gutter is depressing. She’s better than this and him.

If Ashland is playing these fools, he’s right to do so and they’re making it so easy. Billy and Victor and Adam are so consumed with destroying each other they’re missing the signs. Victoria is trying to one up daddy. Jack is a bleeding heart focused on family with Kyle his weakness and Kyle is useless all around. Ashland and Victoria are playing each other but I also think falling for each other. The question will be which is the more ruthless at the end of it? I think Victoria But she’ll lose probably her best match in romance she’s ever had. Her offer of ruling together is intriguing but Ashland ain’t about to be the Nikki to her Victor😂And she ain’t gonna be his Nikki, neither.

Now Lily and Billy are wearing matching colors. SMH.

Furious on Harrison's behalf. Pssht, the kid probably can't even read yet and he doesn't go to school so where's the damage to him from that ChancComm gossip? Shut up, Kyle.

Connor has grown up a lot. Victor will have to buy him his first sports car soon.

Ohhhh, Billy publicized Harrison's paternity. Foul on that play, William. 🤨

I don't know why Tara and Kyle were being coy with Jack about Ashland's health. Half the town knows about it, or at least suspects so what's the big deal?

Either Victoria is an amazing actress or she really has fallen for Ashland. Wow, her voice broke and everything. 😘

Boy is Jack in for a rude reawakening. Scheming and ploys are all up in Sally's promotion to a Summer's old job. She is definitely not new and improved, Jackie.

Wait, what? Billy's going to try to do a hostile takeover of Locke Communications? Boy, put down the crack pipe. As if Victoria or Victor would sit back and let that happen. Jill isn't likely to be down for it either. (I love it if Jill and Ashland had a fling back in the day though.)

Adam still gets to walk into Chelsea's cell any time he wants and drop emotional bombs guaranteed to upset her if not keep her from getting well. Grrr.

Good job, Phyllis. You just pushed Jack back into Sally's clutches. Gee, if only you could master the art of subtlety.

OMG, Jack, you cannot be that clueless. Phyllis played you like a banjo with her fake tears and  claims of loneliness. 🙄

Aaannnnddd Ashland makes his move! Get it, Victoria. Especially now while it's still able to be got, lol. 💗

I think Kevin is one who ruined Lily. He took her virginity at age 15 and gave her chlamydia. Her expectations haven't risen much. 😒

[Waldo13]

Do TIIC REALLY THINK WE ARE STUPID!  That we have no memory. Wasn’t Nostrils going to run the story by Kyle to get his approval before he published it. Wasn’t he supposed to keep Harrison and his kids out of any repercussions from the story. Hey Nostrils, you didn’t name Faith, in the hit piece on Adam, but everyone knew it was Faith.  I’m surprised that Nostrils wanted to celebrate with champagne. That’s not his and Lily’s mode of celebration. 

Question:  If Sumner has a fabulous apartment in Milan, than why is Duhwood have a hotel room?  

Is it me or has anyone else noticed that Tara is less frumpy than when she first came to GC. She’s wearing more form fitting cloths and is more made up.  

More proof positive that Olive Oyl wants her cake and eat Ashland too. Does Olive really want to be involved with Ashland or his Ashland a means to the end in her list for power?  I guess a few afternoon delights would be well worth the price. 

Enough with Endora. It’s getting to the point where I rather see Chloe than her. Endora has become the ultimate cartoon character.  How do you kiss Endora without risking chin burns.  

Nostrils is not only an idiot but he’s a flaming idiot. He couldn’t even get a small part of Ashland’s empire and now he thinks her can get the major part of his empire.  Nostrils, In the immortal words of Aerosmith “Maybe tomorrow, the good lord will take you away”.  And we all say “Dream On”. 

Ditto Endora. We can all Dream On about your exit.

Another day, another chance for ButtBiscuit to be a supreme, entitled, pompous, puffed up, delusional, obnoxious asswipe of a humanoid.  And for Lily to offer token resistance and then fall right in line with breathless adoration of that dung beetle she's enamored with.

It's predictable and infuriating and very boring.  Jason Thompson's performance have all the subtlety and depth of Susan Seaforth Hayes on DOOL.  That's not a compliment.  Put him in a caftan and I wouldn't know the difference.

For a second there, Adam was seeming to be inches above ButtBiscuit in his attitude and response, and then he went to visit/taunt Chelsea about Connor.  He lurched in there, doing his signature "thighs must NEVER touch" waddle, talked at her with his ever present head bobbing, that monotone too-loud delivery enough to drive anyone mad.  

He's neck and neck with Jason Thompson as to which one is the better actor.

Then Phyllis flapped around like Big Bird on a bender, just to make sure nobody got more attention than her.  It's a strange day when SHARON turns in the dialed back performance.

They can all be sold at marked-down prices at the farmer's market just as long as we get more Ashland scenes, especially Ashland and Victoria scenes.  AFAIC, he's brought more interest to Genoa City than anyone has in ages.  He's even given Victoria life and that seemed like it was never going to happen again.  I enjoyed Jack and Sally, too.

But PLEASE, SHOW, PLEASE, can Noah come back?  Even if it's only one day??  PLEASE???  All I want is for him to spend one day in Genoa City, doing nothing but parking on Billy Nostrildumbass ButtBiscuit Abbott's head, over and over and over and over again.  Just keep turning that wheel, Noah, you'll get it right eventually.  Take your time until you do.

This whole Amanda story makes no sense.  Why would a daughter take the fall for murder that her father committed?  Not to be crude, but he’s an old man who probably doesn’t have decades to live, so why sacrifice your life, where you probably have many more years than an old man?  
 

For a man in his 60’s, Locke has a bod for days, better than a lot of guys in their 20’s and 30’s.

Assland's the only newbie that's any good. All of the Sutton strangers, Tararaboomdiyay and even little Hassenpheffer are all duds. It's too soon to pass judgement on Moses, he hasn't been on enough, but after seeing today's episode where he and new Faith are hanging out in the coffee shoppe, I'm thinking new Faith is a dud, too. She's not very animated. It's like the anesthesia hasn't worn off yet. Another disappointment about Moses and Faith, all this time they were off screen I figured they were in a remote corner of the ranch fucking their brains out. Apparently not.

Poor poor delusional Chelsea. First Adam and Sharon are playing hide the salami at the penthouse but now Connor is being kept away from her because Adam is trying to steal her child. I feel sorry for Chelsea (not).  Even Chloe thinks that Chelsea is blowing things out of proportion but she’s still helping. Ok, so Chelsea recorded the conversation but wouldn’t you think that a grown man would be incapable of taking the phone away?  Plus Dr Hedges tells Victor and Adam about the recording and Victor and Adam won’t squirrel Connor away or put up extra security around Connor?  This is dumb as shit as is Amanda trying to defend her mother’s innocence when she has plead guilty and doesn’t want to be acquitted to protect Sutton. 

 

You go Ashland. You go Olive Oyl.  You have my blessing to keep on giving. Olive was just promoted to President of the adult version of The Make a Wish Foundation.  Is also good to see Olive following suit of the other GC couples where making love is a hell of a lot more important than work or even kids. Johnny/Katie who?  I had to laugh because Ashland was capable of making love all night and morning but in public he has a shortness of breath.  That does not bold well for Olive’s ability to make love where she can’t even increase Ashland’s breathing rate nor heart rate 🤔.  Ashland basically told Olive is she shagged him sooner, he would have sold to her instead of Victor/Adam. Once again I say, if Ashland did his homework, he would know that doing business with Olive is doing business with Victor. How wouldn’t Victor, as Chairman of the Board, not know about the merger?  Is Olive just a unwittingly pawn in Victor’s plan of media domination. 

 

A shirtless Ashland is far far superior to a shirtless Kyle, Nostrils, or Duhwood.  

 

Some doctor Moses will make if he’s freaking out and having nightmares about Nate almost dying. Suck it up buttercup because even the best of doctors loose patients.  Well only if the are being written out like Hilary.  If Moses loves medicine, he still can be a doctor but in research.  Moses can be a doctor doctor with a medical degree and a PhD in clinical research.

She is more animated with Ashland than she has ever been with this Billy. But today, while she was playing  verbal games with Adam, she had that feral, starved look on her face. All eyes and teeth; a bit unnerving.

[Joimiaroxeu]

Finally! But Victoria said she was going to give Ashland the gift that keeps on giving. Did she pass him an incurable STD? Geez, on top of his other problems...🙄

Moses is back and copping a bit of an attitude. Is this the writers' way of trying to give him a harder edge? Meh, getting snippy with Nate isn't such a big deal. Moses needs to steal a car or something. 😉

I'm confused because I thought Amanda and Naya had parted ways. This storyline is making me dizzy, and not in a good way.

Oh hey, Ashland. How you doin', boo? Lucky Vikki, getting on that hunk of meat. He seems to know it too, swaggering around the room in his partially open robe. 😛

Devon & Amanda & Nate & Elena. 4-way! 🤡

Amanda has tunnel vision. If Naya didn't kill her father that doesn't mean Sutton did. Naya is clearly protecting somebody but it could be a person not in Amanda's sights yet.

Looks like Victor didn't spend enough money on his toady. Dr. Hedges got cornered way too easily by nutbag Chelsea.

Devon & Amanda & Nate & Elena & Imani. 5-way! 🤡

Wait, I thought Adam knew Victor had Chelsea put in that asylum. What's he surprised about?

Richard Burgi looking awesome at 62. It’s funny. I watched him on AW back in the day but I thought he was younger. He looks amazing. Sign him to a contract and just keep in bed as he was today. Heck! They’ll even save money on wardrobe for him.

Exactly.  Besides looking very very good, he also can act circles around most of the other men on Show, Peter Bergman excepted.  ButtBiscuit and Adam should take one look at Ashland and lurch off to cower in whatever corners they can find while chanting, 

Adam was almost decent there for a second but then he ran into Victoria and his usual setting of Asshole got activated.  Yeah, she wasn't very nice to him but considering all the crap he's pulled he really has no business getting his back up because people don't like him.  Saying "I've changed" only works if he actually has and that's a looooooooooooong way from being even partially proved.  

That poor schmuck of a doctor is going to find himself locked up in his own asylum, dealing with Chelsea, Victor and now Adam.  I hope he likes the food.

I don't really care about much other than Ashland and Victoria these days.  So I'm all in favor of more days like this!

As much as Katie Logan grates on my nerves, I am so glad Heather Tom read the writing on the wall back in '03 (cripes, it's been that long since she left?!) and cut bait with Y&R. I can't imagine her having these kinds of stories, even with ample opportunity to pull out the waterworks. Just from reading the things I've missed, Victoria's agency these days seems to range between "newborn kitten" and "Liam Spencer," and it's sad to watch.

NotBilly is a Class A Moron.

Jill wouldn't give you the money to buy Xerox-eries before, what makes you think she's going to hand over fifty times that money for all of Locke Communications?

There's that other minor detail that Locke wouldn't sell Xerox-eries to you for his own reasons and your prospects haven't improved by publishing all the Locke cancer dirt you could scrape up.

Then NotBilly thinks Victoria is angling her way on to a Locke Communications board seat? You're weeks late and don't know the first thing about Victoria's ambitions for Locke Communications.

If you knew how Victoria's mind worked you would still be with her, living the life in the Turquoise Suburban Prison with the kids and nanny.

Lily deserves to be hooked up with this idiot after agreeing to NotBilly's assessment on buying Locke Communications.

Atonal will never change. Right now he's biding his time until the resentment overwhelms him because of Victor's emotional manipulation to make Atonal carpet bomb Victor's enemies and do his bidding.

I hate all Atonal's interactions with Chelsea. She's not playing with a full deck to start with, but the second he waddles into her room, she buys a First Class ticket on the Crazy Train.

Atonal can say he's only checking on Chelsea's welfare and keeping her in the loop, but he knows every visit is to set her back, keeping her in the hospital longer.

There's one side of Atonal admitting that he's responsible and drove Chelsea to the poisoning because he's still in fuck with Sharon. But the other side of Atonal wants Chelsea locked up in the hospital for as long as possible, because she will never stop going after him for betraying her and not taking responsibility for his lies and bad acts that landed her in a wheelchair.

Quote

He's neck and neck with Jason Thompson as to which one is the better actor.

There's a prop tree in Chancellor Park that's more interesting than NotBilly/Atonal put together.

It's hard to believe that neither Chance Dot Com or Newman Media brain trusts aren't aware Victoria has the inside track on the Locke Communications buyout. There's a lot of jibbering about Victoria getting hurt by his death, and perhaps she should make room for them to take on the heavy lifting of parting out his company ... If only to protect her delicate feelz.

I am suspicious about the timing and place of Locke-ness' acceleration of pain and symptoms. He seems to be playing the cancer story publication for all it's worth to those it will do him the most good.

Since I'm speculating that Stitch is going to be losing his mind and kidnapping either pregnant Mariah or pregnant Mariah and Abby, I'm hoping that at least he waits until after Mariah has had a shower before he stuffs her in the back of his Ford Fiesta and takes off for the badlands of Iowa City.

Atonal can say he's only checking on Chelsea's welfare and keeping her in the loop, but he knows every visit is to set her back, keeping her in the hospital longer.

Well, he's had a documented history of gaslighting the mentally ill, so this isn't out of his wheelhouse. Such a shame I don't give two shits about Chelsea though.

Since I'm speculating that Stitch is going to be losing his mind and kidnapping either pregnant Mariah, pregnant Mariah and Abby, I'm hoping that at least he waits until after Mariah has had a shower before he stuffs her in the back of his Ford Fiesta and takes off for the badlands of Iowa City.

That reminds me, wasn't his sister that Kelly woman from hella years ago? The one Show was obviously setting up to take the fall for Delia's death before Michael Muhney got his walking papers, who went looney for either Billy and/or Jack?

For that matter, didn't one fly over his cookoo's nest near the end, too? 

As I typed that, I remember he had some bratty ass kid that showed up outta nowhere that had issues too.

I still don’t care for Jason Thompson as Billy Abbott. It’s not that he can’t act or isn’t reasonably good looking. He just ain’t Billy Miller. I know I need to move on  but I.just.can’t. LOL!!! 

Can't blame you there 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yep.  Crazy Kelly, first played by Cynthia Watros and then Cady McClain was Stitch's sister.  She was killed by Jack when Victor had him switched with his doppelganger and replaced with Marco Anicelli.  Repugnant storyline all the way round.  Kelly and Jack had dated, didn't end well, I think.

Anyway, after Victor had Jack kidnapped and replaced with the imposter, he  had Kelly be Jack's jailor.  She had him tied to a bed, mentally and physically tortured him until one day Jack woke up and found Kelly dead next to him, the inference that he killed her.  Jack made his way home to Genoa City.

Stitch's son Max came to live with him from Australia - kid lost his Australian accent, apparently, on the plane ride over.  He and Abby were married, Abby was pregnant, and Mad Max, who hated Abby, somehow caused her to miscarry, I don't remember how.  

Oh my, remembering all that reminds me of just how bad the Jill Farren Phelps tenure was.

@boes IIRC, Max set up a trip wire for Abby on the stairs at the GCAC. Abby fell down then lost the baby at the hospital. I think it’s one of the reasons Abby freaked out so much when Mariah had the accident where she fell while out running.

We don't actually know that Jack killed Kelly.

But, yes, horrible storyline and I cannot let it go that Pricktor tortured Jack, and when the torturers called him on the phone, he chortled. This is why Pricktor is dead to me forever.

This is precisely how I feel. I cannot warm up to him. He comes across as a whiny tool without much sex appeal despite being, as you said, reasonably good looking. Ah well.

Was Nick wandering around Italy asking for directions to the library? I can't stop laughing.

Some days I feel like Billy Miller is the only thing that can come close to saving Billy Abbott, because the writers and Jason Thompson sure as shit ain't doin' a damn thing!!! Just terrible. I long for the shirtless days of Billy Abbott back when Miller was playing him. Sigh.

Stop in and say Hi to my cousin Kim, will ya, Stitcheroo?  

I don't care what Stitch's endgame is as long as he's taking screen time away from that ridiculous Amanda (I hate her whiny ass almost as much as I hated her dead twin, Whatsherface) + her idiot family as well as the slow burn that is Faith/Moses. Also us being subjected to Lily/Buttbiscuit and anything having to do with Phyllis. Oh, and seeing Ashland in Olive Oyl's clutches almost makes me want Dummer back; Olive's so squicky with her seduction attempts (vom 🤢). I guess what I'm saying is that I'll take Stitch time over pretty much everything except Peter Bergman's screen time. Maybe they can have their own spin-off or something so we can be relieved of the rest of the jokers.
