Is it curtains for Jordan? On the Thursday, January 23 episode of The Young and the Restless, the Newmans have now cornered their vindictive enemy, after it is revealed that Claire (Hayley Erin) did play her aunt for all she was worth. As Claire has prepared some tea for Jordan (Colleen Zenk), her aunt thinks she laced it with something to poison her to death.

As the two continue their sparring, eventually Victoria (Amelia Heinle) and Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) arrive as back-up. Later, Victor (Eric Braeden) and Nick (Joshua Morrow) arrive on the scene, as Jordan taunts that she has intel they need, the whereabouts of Sharon (Sharon Case) as her bargaining chip.

Victor shouts, “You will end tonight!” Jordan tells Victor she wants lots of money to which he responds, “Oh baby, I’ve got lots of it!” After feigning she will take Victoria as a hostage, Jordan tells them to meet her demands or Sharon will never be found. However, Jordan also admits that Ian Ward (Ray Wise) was her partner in crime, that he killed Heather Stevens, that she helped him with drugging Sharon, because he was going to help her get revenge on the Newmans and get Claire back, but somehow he has gone rogue.

With Jordan revealing the whole sordid plan, Nick gets a call from Mariah (Camryn Grimes), who lo and behold, has come upon a distressed Sharon who finally made her way of the sewer.  He tells Mariah he is on his way and announces to the Newmans and Jordan that Sharon has been found. Jordan has lot her bargaining chip.

“What do you have to bargain with now?” Victor snarks at Jordan. “It’s all over for you.” Jordan claims she can give them Ian. Victor doesn’t need her help for that. Turning to Claire, she asks if this was her endgame was to trap her like a caged animal? “ Claire says, “This is where it needs to end for her.” Jordan panics and grabs the cup of tea, and begins to gulp it down, hoping it will kill her. But will it?

Meanwhile, Ian has made some kind of impression on Tessa (Cait Fairbanks), that he feels terrible about what he did to Mariah all those years ago. After Mariah found them together she lashed out at Ian who slinked away. But, what will he do now that Jordan is trapped? Will he make one last plot for Mariah and company? Stay tuned.

So, what do you think will happen to Jordan? Will she be carted away, escape, or die? What did you think of the performance of Colleen Zenk? Comment below. But first, check out Ian’s ‘discussion’ with Tessa.

Colleen Zenk has made the show the most watchable it has been in a long time

We have only Jordan’s “ word” that it was Ian who ended Heather.
Is she saving herself??

What about all the gossip and rumors that they put Heather in Jordan’s cell, to replace her. Wonder if any of that was true?

Probably not enough pills to kill her she will wake up in shallow grave dig herself out

Nikki has been wearing her Michael Jackson tribute costume for 3 weeks now.

HA!! You are right!

Lolll. That’s the best funniest thing I ve read in awhile! It’s really glaringly hideous. And her helmet hairdo to match! Someone in wardrobe needs disciplinary action

I thought she got a job as a movie theater usher. All she needed was the flashlight. M.G, did they have to pay her extra to wear that, or maybe was threatened in some way, ha!

She could probably buy one or better, both of his many gloves on auction to match that God awful outfit.

The only thing missing from this episode was a laugh track. Other than Ms Zenk, the rest of the cast around Jordan made me laugh so much, especially Melody Thomas Scott. I’m sorry, who was directing this nonsense??? Then Sharon won’t allow them to take her to the hospital?? What, what, what??? And the coming attractions look even more bizarre, with Ian with a gun at the Newman home??? Again, Josh Griffith does NOT know how to write a good story.

I am sorry, but this storyline did not live up to the hype. It also wasted the talents of Ray Wise and Colleen Zenk. In my opinion the only thing it accomplished was putting Sharon Case front and center again. When will CBS realize that a change is needed with the writing staff? How is Y&R still #1?

I must agree. This storyline seemed forced
cobbled by committee. No genuine suspense or surprise. I think villainy needs to build. And how many people need to die around the Newmans? Jordan. Ashland. Reed. Diane. They must be used to it all by now. It’s just all so dumb. Let’s move on.

How about Sharon’s ” dead” friend Cameron, according to today’s show, that should be the “real” end of him.

Victor sent for his goon squad, but did they take “said body” or did the Coroner really take it, or what and will we ever really know. Even Nicki didn’t question Victor’s actions.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Has Dylan’s Mystery Caller/Stalker Been Revealed to Be an Alive Luna Nozawa?

Published

We have another scream machine on her hands at The Bold and the Beautiful after the dramatic ending of the May 1 episode, and that would be Dylan (Sydney Bullock)!

B&B is finally making some headway on just who was the person behind the mystery call that Dylan received telling her they have some “unfinished business.” At the time of the mysterious call, it was clear that the voice was altered to disguise the true identify of the person on the the other line.

On today’s show, after Dylan and Electra (Laneya Grace) exchange words in the wardrobe room about Dylan wanting to rebuild their trust and friendship and how Electra has issues stemming from way back trusting anyone after what Remy (Christian Weissmanm) did to her by befriending her and then plastering deep fake nude photos of her across social media.

The timing of Electra bringing up Remy is also interesting to us, as we had previously reported now that Christian Weissmann is back and on on contract with The Bold and the Beautiful, he’s already teased that Remy has another connection to someone on the canvas, which many are still believing its Dylan.

At the end of the episode, after Electra leaves the room, Dylan hears noises coming from behind the dress rack. She asks, “Jamie” is that with you? After no answer and a bit more hangar and dress ruffling, a figure steps out behind it, while Dylan is looking down at her tablet trying to get back to work.

When Dylan looks up, she lets out a scream that could be heard to Nebraska, as viewers see partial view of what looks to be a woman with long dark hair from the back. Dylan in shock, says, “It’s you!” We fade to black.

So, what’s going on here? Is the reason the caller said to her that we have “unfinished business” because on Monday, it will be revealed to actually be an alive and well, Luna (Lisa Yamada)? Did the two strikes some sort of deal, that allowed Dylan to help Luna escape after Luna supposedly died after Dylan ran her down with her car, which was all off-screen? Another theory, is the mystery caller is Remy and he is doing some sort of Luna fakeout on Dylan for a yet to be revealed reason.

What do you think is going on? Did Lisa Yamada just make an on-screen return to The Bold and the Beautiful? Share your thoughts and theories below, but first check out our recent interview from back in March on the Michael Fairman Channel when Lisa who attended the BBTV app launch party.

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Nick Confesses His Drug Problem to Victor; Joshua Morrow, Mark Grossman, Eric Braeden Bring the Newman Bond

Published

When The Young and the Restless can deliver an emotional side to their stories and their family dynamics, it usually makes for some great scenes delivered by their A-list cast.

Such was the case on the Friday, May 1 episode when Adam (Mark Grossman) and Nick (Joshua Morrow) returned to Genoa City and gave their father, Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), an update on what had gone down with Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) in Las Vegas.

As Victor questioned, “What the hell happened?” Nick piped up, “We both made mistakes along the way, but we’re here now and we’re sorry for giving you so much worry on top of everything else that you’re dealing with,” which was in reference to Victor trying to reclaim his company Newman Enterprises et al.

NICK’S CONFESSION

Next, Nick, explains one of the ways he messed up while trying to go after Matt Clark, when he admitted to this father with tears in his eyes, “That’s one of the ways I messed up … I took Fentanyl willingly. Some of it was because of Matt, but most of it was on me. I was in a lot of pain, dad, after my accident, I was burning through my prescription meds really quickly after I left the hospital. I could see that it was becoming a problem. But honestly, I thought that I could manage it.  I was wrong. I was out in LA and Matt had taken Noah (Lucas Adams) and Sienna (Tamara Braun) and he gave me this bag of pills and said I could use it to trade for information. When I went out to that drug warehouse, he was trying to convince me and Sharon (Sharon Case) that Noah was a drug addict. I just put the pills in my pocket of my jacket and I came back to Genoa City and I was in a lot of pain, dad, and I was wearing that jacket. I put my hands in the pocket and the pills were there.”

Nick sadly added, “I was desperate. I couldn’t get anymore prescription meds, so I took the fentanyl  I’m deeply ashamed that I was so weak, but all I can do is stand here and tell you the truth that I’m going to make this right and I’ll get better.”

BROTHER TO BROTHER

Adam stood up for his brother and reconfirmed to Victor the plan for help Nick through his pill addiction, “Nick is already on his way to doing that. Sharon has set up an appointment with an outpatient facility. He’s going to do the meetings and he’s going to push through this better than ever.”

“You should also know that the only reason I’m standing here is because of Adam,” Nick confessed to Victor. “Every time I fell, you were there to pick me up. You risked your life to save me, and that’s not something I will ever forget.”

In the climatic and emotional ending of the scene, Nick in tears admits his shame to his dad, who comes in to give him hug. Nick says, “I’m so sorry. I know that this is the last thing you or this family needs.”

All three actors, Joshua Morrow, Mark Grossman and Eric Braeden, were excellent in this exchange in their scenes, but at its epicenter continues to be the Emmy-worthy performances by Y&R MVP, Joshua Morrow. Nick’s heartbreaking journey and fall from grace with his pill addiction problem has finally shown the clinks in the armor of the man who is always on the ready to help others … now he needs to let others help him through this. Can we do it?

So, what did you think of the scenes between the Newman man featuring Joshua, Mark and Eric on the Friday episode of Y&R? And though who watched also know that at the very end, Matt Clark who clearly has been injured wakes up from being conked out, so there is more revenge to come on the Newman clan. Share your thoughts below, but take a look at these scenes from a Canadian viewers who saw them air yesterday.

DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Sophia Seemingly Plans to End Her Life, But Not Before Setting Fire to Johnny’s Apartment With Him Trapped Inside

Published

The final few moments of the Thursday, April 30 episode of Days of our Lives, will pave the way, to what just may be the end of Sophia Choi’s (Rachel Boyd) life, but not as you may think!

After an unhinged Sophia paid a visit to Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman), maced him in the eyes, knocked him out and then tied up to a chair, now conscious, she lets him know that she holds him responsible for all the trouble and trauma she has gone through from adopting her child, and her being sent to a mental institution.

So instead of the unregistered gun Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) gave her to finish off Johnny, Sophia sets up a plan to light candle, use nail polish remover and turn on the gas on the stove to ultimately create a mass explosion, which although Johnny pleaded to her not to that to all the innocent people inside his apartment building, she doesn’t seem to care.

FIERY FACE OFF

The plan was supposed to be, after she takes care of Johnny she will toss the gun in the Salem River, then focus on payback to Holly Jonas before leaving town to start a new life.

Now, Sophia makes her exit, leaving Johnny to be a few moments away from an explosion or gas inhalation, when Chanel (Raven Bowens) comes home after awaiting the results of her mammogram. She sees Johnny tied up, as he panics and tells her to put out the flame on the candle, things go awry, and a fire has begun and everything may go up in flames with Johnny and Chanel inside.

A BROKEN SOPHIA

Back in her room, Sophia breaks down after reading the social media comments about her, she planted, and then starts writing a suicide or farewell note which says. “I’m tired of begging for forgiveness for my mistakes. All I wanted was to move forward, to be loved and understood. But it’s clear that I was never going to get that. Holly Jonas said that I was dead to her. So, as her former BFF, I’m going to make her dream a reality.”

A DEADLY TRAP

Now, the fate of Johnny, Chanel and Sophia will be revealed on tomorrow’s May 1st cliffhanger, which may be the end of Sophia when she crosses paths with Kirsten at the bridge near the river. We do know Rachel Boyd is no longer appearing in the show credits section and is now off contract with the soap.

So, what did you think of the climatic final moments of DAYS? What did you think of the performance of Rachel Boyd as Sophia Choi? Let us know via the comment section.
