Chelsea's Newman family gathering outfit is really ugly. They usually dress her cute, but this is just plain old dumpy looking and boring. :'(

Right. Philly really began as a friendship and there weren't any romantic tones until they suddenly kissed in the Chancellor Mansion during that storm. Up until that point they were basically best friends. They were great support systems for each other; which we still see a little bit of that now when they have their small scenes like the online dating disaster.

While I agree with nananana7, that their anger and lust for revenge was the stepping stone for them bonding but there were also other contributing factors to the affair that actully got buried underneath by the affair. Which is so insanely frustrating. There were some good character and story beats that could have been played but they were ignored until the last damn minute when they couldn't do any good.


Phyllis & Jack were going back & forth between being a loving couple and Jack treating Phyllis like his wayward daughter/Phyllis picking fights with him about Victor. The fact that he could have taken Victor down, possibly for good, but chose not to do so was a point of contention between him & Phyllis. We even saw after the Ian Ward cabin kidnapping, Jack was acting waaaaay too forgiving of Victor and making just as many excuses for "the mustache" as Victoria and Nikki were. This attitude towards the man that put a murderous drug kingpin in Phyllis bed and in the lives of their friends & family is what originally led Phyllis to emotionally distance herself from Jack and lie about her revenge schemes with Billy.

Victoria & Billy. Well, it's the same old same old with them. They were in a very good place but Victor does something heinous and Victoria takes up for her father while abandoning Billy and throwing stones at Victor's victims. Billy finally got his balls back and decided enough was enough and left Victoria in the dust. He wasn't self-destructing. In fact, he was taking care of himself because of the kids. For some dumb reason, everyone in the show kept telling him that he would spin out of control without Victoria. Like? That's such an unhealthy thing to say to someone, anyone, let alone someone with a history of addiction. Billy even bought B&S was genuinely working on the business. He even poached one of Jabot's biggest suppliers, lol. He was doing relatively good even during the affair & post-affair reveal. It's not until recently that his character has taken a major dumpster dive.

Pratt messed up Philly in 3 ways:

1) He had them say "I love you" too damn soon
2) The affair was made the sole reason for broken Phack when they were already horribly cracked before Philly
3) Related to 2) because Philly was made the sole reason for the divorce we never got to see Phyllis confront Jack about how/when/why their marriage truly failed again.
That part about Billy is what I can never understand. Even when he's trying to succeed they always find a way to make it look like he's failing!! He had left Victoria in the dust, he got the mansion from Jill, he made a home for his kids and running B&S. But that's not good enough for the hypocrites of GC. He was actually supportive of Victoria and Travis for the most part which IMO was a step in the mature direction. The current writing makes even less sense. They make it look like he's acting out but for what reason????? Nothing significant has happened in his life since December. It's all a giant plot point so that Jill's heart attack makes him "change his ways" when he's been fine for months. :shrug:

seriously, Cheetos in Chief
:run: :scared:
Really? Who's your president so I can diss him/her? I take that personally, he is MY president and this board is for SOAPS!
If you had watched the press conference you would have learned that he has NO ties with Russia, and not wanting Russia for an enemy is not exactly a bad thing.

Isn't there a forum on this board for talk other than soaps?
No disrespect to you and your wonderful country but Russia and Putin scare the hell out of me :scared: .
I like our Steel Magnolia but you can criticize her however you want, I won't take it personally ;) .

I don't know about that, but apparently Y&R teamed up with the American Heart Association to tell a story, that can save lives.
Jill suffered a heart attack, but Jill ignored all the warning signs, as it often happens to women in real life.
February is American Heart Month, that's why the story is being done at this time.

If Victoria is there to give Billy moral support, I'm OK with that!
BUT a Villy reunification...Hell NO!

If supporting Billy is all she's doing, I'll give her a pass this once. Jill is their kids' grandmother so it wouldn't make sense if she didn't care. But please just leave it at that.

Yes, I like the fact that they're educating women on heart disease. A healthy diet, having an active lifestyle, and reducing stress, can help prevent it in some people. ;)

I dont mind the PSA..........in fact its a great idea.
because women experience heart attack different from men.
hopefully, the storyline will give us some insight on potential symptoms, etc.

Anyway, we have to face the fact this story maybe - not maybe, but the real the story that the new regime will use to reunite Villy.

Lol, I think I'm getting madder the more I think about Billy's character devolving so swiftly these last two months.

The way Billy handled the Travis/Victoria situation clearly showed that he has moved on from her. They did push a"rewind" button and it's like it has never happened.

Just caught up on like 4 episodes that's I missed this week because I was out of town.

There's too much for me to recap and discuss (and to be honest I don't care to discuss a lot of it) because some of it was very hard to get through.

The highlight for me was Jill's hospital scenes. Jess Walton is doing a great job with this story and I honestly feel like its being very well written so far. Is it too much to ask that Colin leave town though? I really don't care for him. He's so unlikable.

I felt like there was lot of Nick/Chelsea, Billy/Victoria and Lily/Cane this week. So I really don't care to comment on that except for the fact that I saw more chemistry between Noah and Chelsea in that one little scene bartending than I did between her and Nick these past several months. Billy and Victoria fighting again (who cares). Lily and Canes marital problems regarding B&S and Lily's modelling I want to get into but I want it to actually lead to a divorce this time. I think Lily and Jordan have chemistry. I don't want to invest in a storyline if it won't actually lead to this couple breaking up.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deepCheetos in ChiefDallas 1.0 dream season.............suddenly Victoria wakes up from an awful dream and the role is played by Heather Tom.
It's not like HT is doing much on B&B. Last I saw she is thirsting after 70 year olds :shrug:
oh my goodness, I really hate that Brad Bell is going in that direction.
its disgusting!!!
I am hoping that HT quit, because seriously that's not a story that will garner her another Emmy.


Hopefully SS can woe her over & they can do another doppelganger story were the Newmans discover that the last 10 years of Victoria was an imposter played by AH.
