The gist of it is: Whenever there is a Reed problem, insert Billy to save the day. Reed on the other hand can't take two steps without Billy his chaperone. its just a circular way to reunite Villy. we are suppose to pretend that we dont know that's the plan.

one good thing that the "new" writing regime has done that I like is writing Lily with claws. oh my......she has develop a tough personality.
She was always that way IMO when she is not with Cane, of course. Bingo!
Years ago MAB wasted what could have been a good rivalry between lily and Chloe.
Now I think lily and Hilary could make for a great rivalry. Loved lily's "are you delusional?" Comment lol. And if Devon had died,you know this would have been Phillip the 3rd 2.0 with lily blaming Hilary and trying to,I hope, cut her out of his will etc.
Lily,I thought, was essentially the new cricket but had a bit of a snark to her because she had been raised by Dru. I wish they would either kill Assby,or have him and Lily divorce and let him go to Australia. Hell,he can take the twins with him so lily can get into all kinds of of storylines and then ten years from now,when CK doesn't quite look so young, they can be brought back as teens. I have always believed kids are just props on shows anyway.

Let's face it, Devon is just a big stupid wussy, and there's nothing Lily can do or say to make him smarten up. :'( It's sickening to see her pretend to be soooo upset over her husband's injuries, when we all know, if he was a janitor instead of a billionaire, she wouldn't give him the time of day.... if she was wearing a wristwatch on both her arms. :soapbox:

No I mean lily pulling a jack and getting her removed from the will some underhanded way. Or like when Jill discovered Phillips will in the attic that left his half of the house to her. Lily could pull a Kay and hide that away. It's a moot point anyway since Devon is alive. I just think lily/Hilary as rivals could give lots of story, but make sure each character had their own story so it's not too repetitive.

I'm starting to feel a bit of a Gloria overload now. I've said before I like her in small doses but she's really getting up in Lauren's story now too.

Only round and round and round in the same circle repeating the same lines.

It has been 2 yrs and this rivalry has not gone anywhere. Only round and round and round in the same circle repeating the same lines. That's because chuckie P. and Jill had no intention of really giving the winters a story. By trotting lily out a few times a month to snark at Hilary he thought it would count as 'diversity ' for the show and count as giving all if the Winters' story.
I think SS and KA will actually go somewhere with it. Or give each character a story of their own do this way their interactions can be entertaining and not just....oh this again feeling.

Neil, Devon and Hilary kind of had a story during CP/JFP (the affair reveal, Hilary's accident etc., the coma storyline was quite bad but still a storyline), it's Cane/Lily who were without a story, oh almost forgot Lily had an affair with Joe lol.

If not for thw Villy propping (by Nikki and Reed) today would have been a decent episode. Finally, we had a little bit of humor - Phyllis/Ravi/Ashley scenes.

No, no. There will be some Philly ;) . And it looks like they stopped treating them as an ONS. And Phyllis didn't say it was a mistake. It was kind of left open. That's something. I think they are more careful now after receiving all those comments and tweets after the interview.
