If you caught Thursday’s episode of the CBS daytime drama series, The Young and the Restless as had been anticipated, it was revealed that Chloe (Elizabeth Hendrickson) was indeed the mystery woman helping Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) frame Adam (Justin Hartley).

Chloe’s vendetta with Adam runs deep, since he is responsible for running down Chloe’s beloved daughter Delia.  In key scenes today, Chloe enters Victor’s hospital room and the two have an exchange where it is confirmed that Chloe helped Victor frame Adam, but she is beyond upset when she sees how Victor protected his son at Adam’s trial, and thus did not have the black sheep thrown behind bars for the “murder” of Constance Bingham.

Viewers also learned that Victor has apparently been helping Chloe with her needs for her newborn daughter, Bella.  That secret, and who is the baby daddy will have long lasting repercussions in Genoa City.  When Chloe admits she has the original diary entries of Sage’s that would clear Adam, she tells Victor she might just burn them!  She doesn’t appreciated the swerve job Victor perpratrated on her  when they had a verbal agreement to work together to put Adam away.  When Victor tells her to leave town now with her daughter, she tells him she is sticking around Genoa City, much to the chagrin of the moustache as more threats are levied.

Still to come:  what will happen when Kevin (Greg Rikaart and Billy (Jason Thompson) realize Chloe is back in town?

Meanwhile, In an accompany little video ditty on social media today, Elizabeth teased her return relating to Y&R fans:  “Chloe is back in Genoa City and has some really fun things up her sleeve! I hope you enjoy it!”

So, what do you think about the return of Chloe and all the storyline posibilities? Share your thoughts in the comment section below, and a special welcome back to Liz Hendrickson!

Now we are made to believe that Victor has been involved in Chloe’s life since she tried to run Adam down after his sentencing. I like Lizzie but I prefer her sane but without filter. Maybe this character is more of a challenge for the actor but enuff with the women on Y&R being weak or mentally unstable. Get the Sully/Christian storyline over……Sharon healthy THEN ok another loony. Would be nice to have a male struggling with instability for a change.

Lol. The males on Y&R are all studs. They never age. Why? Because they are all delusional.
I am somewhat confused about what Victor said to Chloe. That is, if it had not been for him, she would not now have her little girl.
I am assuming Chloe gave birth to Kevin’s daughter? Did I not hear correctly?

IMO it has to be Kevin’s unless they want us to believe that Chloe had a refrigerator in her purse to keep the sperm frozen and viable for the two weeks she carried it around. It has not been revealed yet who is the father.

Thanks for that, Sheila.
I just had a thought. Could the baby be Victor’s? Maybe he commiserated with her so much after losing Delia, he offered? Lol.
After all, Victor has slept with everyone in skirts….and then some. Such a stud.

Celia…y-e-p…Victor is “such a stud”, alright…but more like a SCARY “stud”…LOL!!!!!

Later, my friend.

Please writers address the love and friendship of Adam and Sharon please stop making Sharon such an emotional wreck.PLEASE help spread the word that we would not like Sharon treated this way this character has been abused so bad emotionally and physically through all the years she’s been on. No more unhappiness for this beautiful lady

The love and friendship of Adam and Sharon?

More predictable Pratt nonsense – completely un-watchable!!

I watch and love most of it. I find it incredibly annoying when people talk about the writers as if they really understand script writing. Don’t watch? Don’t comment! Easy peasy

Sheila, one doesn’t have to be well versed in Script Writing 101 to know when stories just aren’t working and to know when they are bored or not.
I am hanging in there with Y&R but Bart is right, it’s rather dull as of late but
I trust it will improve.
We’re so very sorry if our opinions annoy you. Lat time I checked, the first amendment was alive and well. I can only suggest you follow your own advice and stop reading comments which annoy you.

Oh, and you do??

Tell me, does it get lonesome up there on your pedestal?

FYI – I will comment on anything I want to, thank you very much

Sorry to break it to you, Sheila…..with all due respect (I do enjoy chatting with you…so, this is nothing personal)….but, I don’t know if you have noticed? There are many, many well-versed, writers, educators and such on these boards. So, yeah, most do know how to put ink to paper better than the fare we are getting.
But, I continue to watch because that is what I do.

His bad writing is effecting the acting. The actors sometime look so unbelievable when they utter the words Pratt has given them, I feel sorry for the actors because it’s out of their hands.

Because you love most of this garbage doesn’t mean we all have to love it. This show is on life support, the only way to revive it is to get rid of the HACK and get some real soap writers in that know and respect the history of the show and characters.

I don’t mind Chloe getting revenge I feel that she should get revenge also on Chelsea because Chelsea was supposed to be her best friend and she didn’t really seem to feel bad for Chloe that much and she covered for Adam before she decided to go and tell on Adam so Chelsea is very wrong also

I am really tired of people saying “Adam ran down Delia” He hit her but he did not even know it at first…..he didn’t run her down….that indicates he did it on purpose…..like Phyllis did Christine years ago…..

I have NEVER believed that Adam killed Delia! There was a specific scene years ago with a list of license numbers and names when the hit and run was being investigated. Above Adam’s name was the name Kelly White. I have ALWAYS believed that Kelly was the one who hit Delia…especially after she and Billy began their affair! Can you imagine realizing that you have slept with a woman who killed your daughter and then drove off?!
Unfortunately, story lines began to twist and turn out of control with total unbelievable nonsense! I had watched every chance possible from the beginning and finally gave up as of 10 September 2015. It all just became a waste of time for me, and , yes, I do still check in here and read bits and bobs because I MISS my Y & R family so much. I feel some times as if I lost a very dear friend who was always there for me in good times and bad…
However, I still have Coronation Street, Emmerdale and EastEnders where the stories actually make sense, children grow up naturally in REAL time and action sequences REALLY ARE packed with action! There is nowt like a good, well written English soap!
Sorry for the long natter, but I really DO miss the programme and always will. I also respect everyone who still watches and is able to carry on. I just wish I could have…Cheers and blessings to all everafter X

And Phyllis is walking around free as a bird.

I am with you, Leslie. Only on soaps. Such a ridiculous premise.
Besides; I still do not believe Adam hit Delia to begin with…I have always maintained that. This is just a ploy by TPTB……a threat held over Adam’s head to use when convenient to the storyline.
The Adam saga is never-ending with Victor perpetually at the helm of everyone’s life.

I too remain one of the ” Adam did not hit Delia” belivers, and wish the culprit could be found. I also feel he did not leave the scene of the accident which found a dog walking upon his stop. That is not leaving the scene of an accident.

No one ever comments on this, but are Jack and Phyllis really married. That whacky minister arrived who was probably hired by Victor.

Leslie, I totally feel the same. Why do people KEEP saying Adam “ran
down Delia”???!! He wasnt even the one, in my opinion, and even if
people believe it was him, they also know he never even saw her. Hate
how they all still spin it so unfairly!

It was left open as to who actually hit and killed Delia..
They left a loophole to revisit it at a later time..
I, as many others, do not believe Billy hit delia..

I believe it was Nikki or Niel in a drunken stupor and no recall..
And at the time Nikki was having those MS attacks..(I think she is now cured of an incurable disease lol)

either one, both would easily get out of it..

I agree that Adam didn’t run Delia down. But Chloe believes Adam did and is angry that he was never, until now, sent to prison.

Chloe is back…Y-A-Y!!!!!!!!!! Now that Chloe is back, maybe she can talk some sense into and/or straighten out that yammering, pushy and meddling BFF of hers aka Chelsea.

Just saying……….

I don’t know about Chloe still feeling pangs of love for BFF, Chelsea, Jay. She’s married to Adam. Chloe will give Chelsea no quarter because of that fact. Later, my friend.

Oh Jay, I would jump off a bridge if i dated Chelsea! She is EVERYWHERE!

Tim…dude…I think that ‘everywhere’ is an UNDERSTATEMENT…LOL!!!!! Yep.

Later, dude.

No, surprise, as usual too lamely transparent..
We all knew Chloe was the mysterious woman..
and-
We all know Billy is the father by his sperm.
and-
no way in hell will Chloe win over Victor, it will end with Victor as king and Chloe a stepped on minion..

So= what’s new with Y&R? ahaaa!

To add;
Before leaving town, Chloe had one last night with Kevin and then stole Billy’s sperm.

It could go either way.. Chloe might say it’s Kevin’s because he is now very rich..
But in the end, the baby is Billy’s ..

ANOTHER VERY SENSELESS STORY THAT GETS WORSE BY THE DAY!!!!!!! I KNOW IT IS A SOAP-OPERA BUT??

I can’t stand her,she’s nuts and always has been,take her off.Just let the truth come out about Sage’s baby and get it done with,it’s been dragged out too long.

I agree Diane. I don’t care much for her either and although it is hard to lose a child, it happens everyday in this world so I wish she would just get over it. It must be a couple of years old now.

So glad to see Chloe back and she looks great!

I’m thinking Bella is Billy’s daughter as with Kevin it was basically a one-shot deal and with Billy she had a vial of opportunities.

I knew all along that Chole was coming back. I know its only a soap opera, but it’s amazing what Victor can pull off from jail. Maybe Chole will give the old man a run for his money. And maybe now with Chole and hopefully the much needed permanent return of Jill, they weed away so e of the useless mess, such as Luca, and hopefully Stitch. Like I said, the return of Jill could bring to life so many characters that have not been used of lte nd should be. And maybe it will hold off from Lily and Cane always bitching about Hilary. I am hoping a Colin comes back with Jill. I am hoping that the re renovation of the house is a sign of Jill staying on a more permanent basis. Only time will tell

Yes Luca, Stitch and Summer, hit the road!

You said it, Timmm. I’ll even chip in for their bus fare.

just keep chloe away from kevin….
actually enjoying mariah/ kevin/ natalie triangle its fun and kight and all three have a cool rapport…
kevin and chloe were a bust
maybe chloe can wheel billy and cane in her web… cane and lily need something else to do besides worrying over devon and hilary

Amen Damien. So happy to have adorable Kevin with some interesting women who aren’t always putting him down or asking him to play doormat. Love his longer hair, too, don’t you?

I am so sick of the Adam ran over Delia story. Everyone knows that in the end, whenever the end will be, Adam will not be the “one”. So sick of Chelsea having to know everything about anything. MYOB for a minute. Move on with that ridiculous baby switch story already. I am getting bored with these unbelievable stories. Let’s get this show on the road already!

All I ask is that the writers honor the memory of Jeanne Cooper (Katherine Chancellor) in the character of Chloe. Katherine Chancellor knew how to handle Victor Newman – and every other character she encountered – when it came to friendship and business. Please make Chloe, born Katherine Tina Valentine, a strong female character.

From day one, Y&R writers have not backed down from naming Adam Newman as the driver who killed Delia. There has been many opportunities to change this storyline; but it has not happened. Adam was selected to carry the burden of killing a child known to him. Even if the death is considered an accident, or mistaken identity, the writers have not offered any other alternative but Adam.

As usual haven’t seen Friday here in the northwest. Chole was always so respected for her acting, but I was pulled a bit back seeing her first presence with Victor. I am not appreciating Victor’s power from the hospital bed. Oh please, give Victor an adjustment in character.

Of course it wasn’t the acting or actors disliked.

There are moments when I start to be interested once again.

I am not a let it all be happy person, but Young and the Restless got too dark and explosive for a bit, now I wish it would let us, as viewers, decide we like some of our old friends. Of course, their roles must be likeable. It is always about an appropriate balance in all things.

How in the hell doesn’t Michael NOT tap that “Nurse” on the shoulder in Victor’s hospital room out of curiosity because she looked like the girl in the survalience video? So freakin dumb!

And why didn’t he tell her to leave or wait until she had before he had a private conversation with Victor?

Victor certainly had to see this (Chloe wanting to destroy the journal pages) coming and made other arrangements. I’m surprised she didn’t already destroy the pages.

How long is Elizabeth staying?

I’m glad that Chloe’s back. She’s a great actor if they’d just give her the chance. However, I do agree with the others that the show has gotten a little boring because of these old story lines that has no ending that we can see in the future. There’s nothing much to look forward too anymore. I too hope they clean house & get rid of Stitch, his son and Luca. They just don’t belong. We love Dylan with Sharon. We need a good woman for Nik so he’ll finally be happy again since his marriage to Sharon came to an end.

I would love to see the Neuman family back together & happy. At least for a while. Maybe Victoria & her new guy can make a real go of it & Billy can find someone other than Phyllis. She belongs with Jack. I’m tired of Ashley always being either sick or secretlly pining over Neville. Put those two together already. Take out Hillary AND Devon. I’m so sick of those two. There’s no real story line there. Get rid of Neil too. All he really does on the show is help Nikki and/or Jack with their drug/alcohol problems.

Bring some new blood onto the show. Some of these long time actors have not had a real story line for months now. Now, we viewers are beginning to not like the sight of them anymore. Either do something good for the old actors or get rid of them with fresh new actors with fresh new story lines.

I know there’s not a lot of good you can do for Chloe’s character since you’ve already turned her into a Psyco which is too bad. Maybe put Mariah with Kevin & get rid of (you see … I can’t even remember the genius girl’s name). Anyway, you get out gist. We want either more from our character’s or get rid of them. But DO for sure get rid of Stitch, his son, Luca, Hillary, Neil & Devon FOR SURE! Ugh!

Like the other’s have said, I echo, to put Cain & Lilly in a good relationship outside of the restaurant! Those kids should be big enough to have a family oriented story line possibly for them. Victor really should get what he deserves this time. Nobody in true life gets away with literally everything. It’s gotten old. Let poor Adam have a good life with Chelsea & their Son. Let him run Neuman because we all know HE has the degree & smarts, not Victoria. Have her fight Jess’s character tooth and nail for “Brash and Sassy.”

I don’t have anymore to say. The show needs an over haul before it gets cancelled. I’ve watched by DVR for at least 25 years & I’m not that old! I’d hate to see my show go. PLEASE get on the ball writers!!!

I hope Elizabeth will be staying for a long time. I hated to see you go the first time.

Goodbye! Good luck writers!! 🙂

I would like to know how Victor got hold of Sage’s journal. Also, will Chloe ever give the missing pages to Victor?

They never showed that part but knowing Victor he hired Chloe to break in and steal it. I think the place was empty for awhile after Sage died, Nick couldn’t go back into the place for awhile so he stayed at the tack house. I also think Victor being so mean played Chloe. She had a baby, no money and Victor hates Billy Abbott as well so that could be why he said in one of the episodes” Didn’t I take care of Bella while you we’re in the hospital”. I can’t see Victor taking care of anything unless there is something in it for him. If his baby Victoria gets involved with Billy again he can spring this baby on her & pretend Billy & Chloe had an affair while he was married to Vicky. JMO

Nancy Lee Grahn’s Star-Studded ALS Fundraiser Reveals “I’ll Be There” Video Featuring Soap Opera Notables

Talk about your impressive line-up! It’s a soap fans dream and for a great cause. General Hospital’s Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis) is prepping her one-night only ALS fundraiser which will feature many of her friends and co-stars.

The benefit is set for May 4th in Glendale, California. Slated to participate are Genie Francis, Jane Elliot, Peter Bergman, Maurice Benard, Eileen Davidson, Thorsten Kaye, Michelle Stafford, Stephen Nichols, Rena Sofer, Jason Thompson, Kelly Monaco, Melissa Claire Egan, Maura West, Kristina Wagner, Gregory Harrison, Trevor St. John, Kate Mansi, Kirsten Storms, Cynthia Watros, and many others.

On Wednesday, Grahn took to her social media and released an “I’ll be there” video shout-out featuring, Monaco, Elliot, Bergman, Bernard, West, Harrison, St. John and more. In a touching and important moment in the new video, Michelle Strogny, who is battling ALS, is featured.

Previously, in speaking with Soap Opera Digest on the impetus of the event, Grahn recalled, “I was actually doing Zoom events during Covid and I met this woman that I just fell in love with, Michelle Strojny. At the time, Michelle had been living with ALS for four years. Now, it’s five years. She is a mom of a teenage son, she has the most wonderful husband, and she has been dealing with this [disease] for quite a while. And obviously, there isn’t a cure yet. It’s not survivable yet. But as she says, it’s not incurable. Nothing is; it’s underfunded. But anyway, I just really dug this woman. She is so grounded and filled with grace, and she spends all of her time working to raise money for the cause. We did a fundraiser for her last year and then I thought, ‘You know what? The soaps don’t ever get together to do something for charity.’ Collectively, we have this amazing community and we don’t collectively use it for a good cause, and I think it’s such an easy thing for us to do and we could potentially really make a difference.”

As GH viewers know, Gregory Harrison is playing the character of Gregory Chase, who is also battling ALS in a touching storyline that is currently playing out shedding a light on this disease.

‘General Hospital’ Writer Shannon Peace Let Go, and Shares on Sprina: “One of My Only Regrets is to Not Have the Opportunity to Develop That ‘Ship’ Further”

As General Hospital’s new head writing team of Elizabeth Korte and Patrick Mulcahy gets off the ground and running, there are still changes a foot on the writing team.

Now comes word via breakdown writer Shannon Peace that she is no longer on contract with the long-running ABC soap heading into its 61st season. Peace shared a heartfelt message on her Instagram, thanking the fans, and the show for the opportunity and the importance of diversity in the writers room.

Peace began, “After almost 3 years on staff and 106 episodes penned, I am no longer on contract with General Hospital. Writing for this country’s longest running television serial drama has been an education of epic proportions; I will forever be grateful that I earned my WGA card on a daytime fixture that holds memories for so many.” (Peace pictured below with GH EP Frank Valentini and script writer, Charlotte Gibson from about ten months ago).

Shannon added “Even more importantly, as the sole Black breakdown writer (and only POC in the writers room) during my tenure, I pushed for vital interactions and discussions that prioritized inclusion, visibility, and representation”

The writer pointed to the example of vital interaction when in story, “Stella and Portia’s frank July 2022 conversation about the role race played in Esme’s framing of Trina is just one example of the impact I’m gratified to have had.”

Acknowledging former GH co-head writers was also part of Peace’s farewell expressing, “Appreciation to my former bosses, Chris Van Etten and Dan O’Connor – not only taking a chance on me, but for valuing my opinion and championing my voice.”

Courtesy/ABC

Many GH fans know that Peace was key to the development of the love story between Trina Robinson and Spencer Cassadine as played by Tabyana Ali and Nicholas Chavez. Shannon gave a special shout-out to ‘Sprina’ fans, “I also want to thank fans who were supportive of my work, especially the recognition of my love for ‘Sprina’. One of my only regrets is not having to develop that ‘ship’ further.”

She concludes her statement with,”In the aftermath of a historic writer’s strike that shed new light on the troubling ways writers are regarded in daytime, my sincere hope is that General Hospital recommits to valuing staff writer efforts and input, with a more intentional focus on diverse viewpoints — and thrives for another 60 years.”

Accompanying her post, Shannon added, “Thank you all for the love and support these last few years. I hope GH fans get all they hope for and more!”

So, what do you think about GH not renewing Shannon’s contract? Will there be more continued changes afoot? What do you think is the future of ‘Sprina’ anyway at this point as viewers wait to see if Nicholas Chavez officially returns to the show?  Comment below.
