I can see Scott's business card........
---- Scott Grainger
---- Executive Monitor of Abby Newman
---- Newman Enterprise
---- Genoa City, WI
Wasn't that Stitch's old job?
yet another confirmation that the writers hire these actors and dont know what to do with them.
Dylan, Stitch, and now Scott.

Abby looks like a teenager with that hairstyle.
What the hell is Scott's job other than watching Abby?
again another stupid out of left field story.......its like Sussman had an idea and decided to put it on screen before actually thinking about the story.
this reminds me of when Steve Burton came on the show and JFP couldn't figure out what to do with the character.
so for whole year, the character just flounder around until she made the character become an unqualified popo.
Pink blouse and a Barbie Doll ponytail. Cute look, but I don't care for the character. Her stupid Daddy loyalty gets on my nerves. ^o)

They fought over Sharon, and she picked Adam. Remember that, it was in New Orleans. ;)

I am quite iritated that Sussman has written the storyline as if Billy and Boretoria just got a divorce because of Philly.
everyone is talking about Boretoria being hurt that Billy has chosen to be with Red.

I guess if Sussman paid attention to her predecessors writings she would have realized that Boretoria was in a relationship with Travis and Boretoria and Billy have been divorced for almost two fucking years......so stop this rubbish.
Ugh. Victoria is a grown-ass adult. If her ex-husband of 2-3 years has decided to move on, she needs to lady up and deal with it. Everyone around her also needs to stop mollycoddling her and reinforcing her insufferable behavior. Enough. The enabling stops here.

This is just part of what makes Victoria so damn annoying for me. Her actions (just my interpretation) show her as this deeply flawed, cold, critical character -- which is completely fine and could be very interesting -- but the way that the other characters interact with her doesn't jive with what she is. "You're so unique and special," Nick tells her and what?! What a golden opportunity that was to explore how Victoria was/is a huge reason that Billy and Phyllis became a couple (both times), and they wasted it by doubling down on this false "Saint Victoria" narrative.
Sussman wants an EXCUSE to write for AH/Boretoria and if portraying the character as saint is just another way to pimp her more than every character on screen.

well I think the old Chelsea is coming back.
she is tapping into her street-smarts to figure out Chloe's backer.
lets hope she solve on her own without Greasy-Dickolas.

they haven't been together for two years.
did Sussman suddenly forget that Boretoria was with Travis for some months?
Sally is trying to make up crap and call it a storyline.

I've been watching JT!Billy and Philly clips from last year on youtube and I've noticed a couple of things:

JT might be the perfect adult Billy. He's quickly becoming tied for fav w/ Billy Miller.

Villy broke up because of Passkey/Victoria siding with her dad again.

The actual full-on Philly stuff took awhile to get to even after they first kissed.

Before the full-on Philly romance, the show took the time to build them up as believable friends.

Jack was a whiney douche bag who was more concerned w/ Phyllis not paying attention to him than he was w/ her suffering. :glare:

Jack pulled a Victoria and tried to make everything about him. His nickname during that time should have been "Jack 'Me, me, me' Abbott"

There was a ton of Villy propping but no effort was made to make Victoria likable. At all.

Billy basically tried to get back w/ Victoria to shut everyone up, lol.

Philly's 2nd kiss and the one that really started the couple was due to Sage's death and Billy not wanting to waste his life denying what he wants.

Sage died for Philly. Bless her.

I don't know if it was because or JT or the writing, but Billy was acting like a real leading man in a soap romance. He was very alpha-ish and direct about wanting Phyllis. I'm still a little shocked to see him behave that way. He declared his intent to have Phyllis right in front of Jack and her. Phyllis was visibly shook :lol:

Once Philly started, Billy was like "Victoria Newman? Yea, I think I went to college with her. I don't know her that well"

They really made Phyllis cry way too much. Gina is a good crier but still no one has time for that many waterwork scenes.

Victoria made Jack fire Billy from the family company so she could have him to herself. :glare:

Jack is actually a terribly selfish brother. Billy was "supposedly" going through a hard time and Jack kept talking about how much he understood that Billy wanted to have Jack's life. A successful business, family, reputation, money, wife. Like, way to be there for your brother, Jack. Why don't you just tell him he's fat & ugly and no one will ever love him? :lol:

Ashley had no effing life whatsoever. She might as well have died from that brain tumor. But at least she was genuinely there for Billy when she thought he needed it.

Phyllis was using her guilt of the affair to hold on to Jack. It was so obvious because old Phyllis would have burned the Abbott mansion down for less than half the crap Jack said to her and the way he abandoned her in her time of need.

Jill was a thorn in everyone's side. She single-handly ruined everything. Brass & Sassy, Billy building his life at K-Mansion, Philly, Cane & Billy finally bonding, my enjoyment of her scenes. She should have stayed gone.

Summer is only a Newman when it comes to protecting Victor and all the other times she's an Abbott and Jack's #1 Daughter/fan. Okay, bye girl. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

I appreciate Natalie more now that the show is so boring and Mariah isn't as sarcastic as she used to be. I miss the snark!

I miss Ian Ward. That cartoon villain. :frownie:

Billy could have signed a publishing deal for multiple works of poetry about how much he loved Phyllis. That boy was giving John Keats a run for his money.

Jill, Jack, Victoria, and even Ashley have an unhealthy obsession with telling Billy he's ruining his life whenever he makes the tiniest of mistakes. Billy needs a better support system. He bought a business, got a house (mansion) for him & the kids, was spending quality time with said children, not gambling, not whoring around constantly, and generally making better life decisions than he had in the past. But noooope he's not with Victoria so he's ruining his life according to his family. Bite me.

Jill's blackmailing plan was super idiotic. She was going to tell Jack about Philly first if Phyllis didn't break up w/ Billy because she didn't want Phyllis to ruin Billy's relationship w/ Jack but failed to realize that if she outed Philly then the relationship w/ Jack would still be ruined AND Billy would hate her for taking the decision to tell Jack away from them + trying blackmail Phyllis into dumping him.

Actually, that whole plot point was extremely stupid but at least Gina won an Emmy for the scenes that eventually came from it.

The therapy/Marco stuff would have been sooooooo much better if they kept that thread visible throughout the entire year. Instead, they let all the other good Phack marriage stuff get eaten up by the guilt of having an affair.

Chuck Pratt may have been terrible but even he was able to give us some good stories and character moments like Billy confronting Jill and her realizing that he was truly in love w/ Phyllis or Ashley telling Billy she almost died or even the Phyllis vs Summer stuff doing the Victor trial. There was some good stuff in there if you looked hard enough.

But I still would never want that man back on this show.

Hot Jordan can help her. He's a lot more useful than Dickolas and he has more time on his hands since he's done with Bitchlary.

the story that Sussman is laying out is probably for viewers who started watching since December 7th.
which according to the ratings are probably zero.
so I am not sure what she is trying to tell the audience with the direction she is going.
