A lot of us were talking about this blind item a while ago:

[twitter=l3nee91/status/710251653161680896]
This was from the Digest that was out in stores Dec 31st. (January pub date, but in stores at end of Dec or on Jan 1st).

I see that today's tweet has a hashtag that suggests that the budget cuts part might have referred to Y&R ... but I'm not sure one layoff in mid-March (Sofia Pernas) is really proof of that.

The only thing I've noticed about budget at Y&R is that they've been using the same set for everything -- the Genoa City Athletic Club which is also a hotel and restaurant -- half the characters live there in hotel suites. All the sex affairs happen in the hotel. Nobody has an office anymore, so all business meetings happen in the restauarant. Etc. They do show Victor Newman's own office but they no longer show Victor Newman's home. They also have a few other restaurants in town that are used on the show. It's weird because there were so many sets (including homes and offices) in use not that long ago.

With all their location shootings Days now looks better than Y&R, Y&R looks very cheap lately. I think last time they build some new beautiful sets was under Griffith.

It appears like it's Y&R with Sofia Pernas being let go.
Yes, the term "budgetary reasons" was used.

It's kind of weird because I think Y&R has less contract actors than Days.
They have a lot of expensive vets though from what I have heard.
There aren't that many of them but some are very heavily featured and expensive. It's Braeden and Bergman. With lesser guarantees MTS, KSJ and ED. Tracy Bregman and CLB are barely on.
GH has very few vets. Days has a decent number of vets but they use them less than Y&R.

They aren't Y&R vets but Jason Thompson, Gina Tognoni, Justin Hartley, etc didn't come cheap at all. Also Steve Burton is probably the most expensive person in daytime when you factor in the flights that they're paying for. I'm just glad the budget cuts are for Y&R and not Days.

Yes Y&R cast is mainly vets & stars who probably don't come cheap. I wouldn't be surprised if we here of more cuts because, l don't think this one actress makes that much.

Apparently she was bumped to recurring, which sucks, but there are plenty of people making more money for them to let go. I can name 5-10 if they need help.

I just didn't have faith in Days to fire the right people if they had another budget slash. I'm sure Higley is going to start axing people right before or after this hiatus anyway. That has me nervous enough.

It's not unusual for them to have input in a wedding dress, but I wish she'd word things differently. Meanwhile, I like the back of the dress so I like it in this picture.

Confirming the fact that she had input when it comes to the actual dress Abby wore at the wedding explains why it ended up looking like it did.

I am not a fan of the dress at all, but it did look good on her.

I bet it would have looked horrible if Richard Blure designed it without input.

Having input didn't seem to help. ;)

Lol, I beg to differ. ;)

MBE just Instagrammed a picture of her with Kate Mansi, Kristian Alfonso, Tamara Braun on a hike. Don't know when it was taken, but maybe they met up during the break to catch up.

I don't know how to bring it over...

MBE also tagged "Deidre" in her photo caption.
That's Deidre Decker from make-up on the left of the photo.

I don't believe that he designed it because I saw the exact same dress on someone on Facebook. They may have discussed the type of look they wanted and then he went out and found several dresses for her to try on.

For me, it seems to be much more of a Kate Mansi dress than an Abby dress. KM tends to choose edgier clothing and has worn backless dresses on more than one occasion. Abby doesn't seem that fashion forward.
