WATCH: Who Kissed Whom On New Years Eve In Genoa City! Which Y&R Duo Do You Want To See Together In 2015?
Courtesy/CBS
Earlier today on CBS’ The Young and the Restless, the residents of Genoa City gathered at the GCAC for the big New Year’s Eve bash! And when the clock struck twelve, the camera panned to various duos sharing a peck, hug, a kiss, a passionate wet one, and more!
In the final moments of the episode, Courtney ( Kelli Goss) and Noah (Robert Adamson) kissed and then the cop stared at her hand! Mariah (Camryn Grimes) and Kevin (Greg Rikaart) succumbed to doing shots then sharing a smooch, Harding (Chris McKenna) surprised Abby (Melissa Ordway) and planted one on her lips, and she liked it!
Paul (Doug Davidson) and Christine (Lauralee Bell) shared a moment of reconnection, but Paul was busy checking on Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) who was hugging hubby Victor (Eric Braeden)! Austin (Matt Atkinson) and Summer (Hunter King) kissed, Devon (Bryton James) and Gwen kissed … as Neil (Kristoff St. John) rejoiced with a miserable looking Hilary (Mishael Morgan). And then there was Jack (Peter Bergman) and Phyllis (Gina Tognoni) who shared a promise for the Nee Year and the kiss … while an unsettled look came from Kelly (Cady McClain) who spotted the lip-smack!
Elsewhere, Stich (Sean Carrigan) and Victoria (Amelia Heinle) were home making out on the couch naked, while Billy (Burgess Jenkins) and Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) said that nothing can stand in the way of their happiness, only Adam (Justin Hartley)was lurking while at the NYE party.
So, with the prospect of these 0n-screen couples on Y&R in 2015, which do you want to end up together the most? Which smooch did you like best on today’s New Year’s Eve show? Watch the clip after the jump and then comment below!
Really like Kevin and Mariah.
Me too! Abby was acting like a vapid mean girl and Mariah just let her have it, not with her fists, but with her words.
Who isn’t rooting for Mariah at this point?
Summer and Abby are shallow, vacuous, mean girls–clearly they have the Newman gene. Mariah is worth the lot of them. More please–today’s writing was good and solid.
Please do not let Brian Fronz put an end to the good things which are happening.
I hope Sharon and Adam get back together. I really can’t forgive Nick anymore all the games and hurt he has done to Sharon. The writers seem to forget how much love Adam had for Sharon 🙂 It was so wonderful how they had each others backs
Robert…me, too!!!!! Kevin and Mariah TRULY ROCK!!!!!
Most definitely agree, jaybird/Robert. There’s something about Mariah….and Kevin…LOL.
Yes, these two have the kind of chemistry I have not seen in a long time on Y&R. I just don’t like this Abby. Period. She is as interesting as dish water….please, do something with her hair…give her a style that is up with the times, not Donna Reed……and that cop? Even worse.
No one piques my interest at this point except Mariah and Kevin……And, possibly ; hopefully a start of something between ‘Gabriel’ and Chelsea. This Billy needs to go. Yuck.
I love Ashley….such a beautiful and talented actress…..but, with someone her own age….I have had it with these two -ships- in -the -night relationships . There will be a problem between Victoria and Ben when she discovers his minute affair with Ashley…..I see the writing on the wall….here we go again. C’mon, now, can we please get away from the same old same old?
There is no doubt that Kevin and Mariah will be together..
who else would they be with..
nonetheless, they will not last..
it is written; soap couples must part, always! (rule #1 ..)
Me too.
Su000, in compromising my list of things which make me go “HUH?” for 2014 your comments made the top of the list.
Definitely loved Kevin and Mariah the most.
Don’t really care about Jack and Phyllis, although
that look on Kelly’s face as she watched their kiss
was pretty creepy.
What was up with Noah announcing so rudely
that he never wants to get married?? Courtney,
after that, looked so hurt and so not in the mood
for a New Year’s kiss from him.
Anyway, here is to hoping for a Kevin/Mariah hookup in 2015!
Nanci, I kind of liked Noah announcing that because it’s an example of a character driven plot line.
Noah has watched his parents torment each other since he was a baby. It’s no wonder he thinks marriage is a horrible idea after the example his parents set.
Hi Harry,
But for Noah to say it like that, and on romantic New Year’s Eve,
threw me (and Courtney!) for a loop. Noah is normally so kind and
gentle, and all that. But he had a few drinks in him I guess, and
true about his role models for marriage, ugh.
Be Interesting to see what happens now with Noah and Courtney.
If they get enough screen time to even explore it, that is!
Sorry Nancy. I missed the scene you mentioned and only knew of the details based on your description.
You’re right–Noah is the sweet diplomat who always errors on the side of kindness. I guess his folks’ marriage from hell has given him a case of shell shock.
Kelly has turned into a creepy, psycho stalker. I guess that is the only way she can fight Phyllis. If you can’t beat em, join em!
I know! Gosh, I didn’t want Kelly to go down
the loony path, but instead just go forward with
a guy worth her time. Hopefully her weirdness was
just the drinks in her, much like Noah that night!
“…that look on Kelly’s face as she watched their kiss was pretty creepy ”
some thing tells me this is the beginning of the end of Cady McClain’ Kelly
she had me going
I think you might be right, Patrick. Which makes me kind of sad because I was happy for Cady when she landed the job.
Here’s my guess–I never bought that Adam hit Chelsey. If you watch that scene it just doesn’t seem plausible. There was a reason he didn’t know he hit her until days later–because he didn’t.
I think Kelly did it and the guilt is pushing her over the edge.
It can’t just be because the love of Jack’s life awoke from her coma and he had to go back to her.
Everybody who watches this soap knows that Cady McClain/Kelly was going to be the sacrificial lamb in this Phyllis & Jack stroryline before she is written out I hope she gets her pound of flesh concerning Phyllis & Jack. As for Neill to even be remotely friendly with Phyllis is stupid since Phyllis & Dru hated each others guts. And my New Years wish for this show is for Dylan to become Sharon’s best friend the actor Steve Burton actually shows he has blood in his veins when he acts opposite her he is comfortable and relaxed. Besides he is the only one in town who knows she has a mental illness and doesn’t act like a jack ass. As for Nick may his lower body parts fall off total complete ass. In twenty years on this show his character has still not grown up!
Happy New Year to all of the regulars on Michael’s site!
Happy New Year to you.
Happy New year, Lew….let’s hope our soaps continue to air.
CeeCee, Thank you!
Couples I’d like to see in 2015 are:
1. Jack and Phyllis
2. Sharon and Nick
3. Devon and Hilary
4. Adam and Chelsea
Happy New Year.
Looks like their setting up Kelly as a stalker who is obsessed with Jack and out to ruin RED. I like it. Knock RED down a few notches and have Kelly go bonkers!
Loved Kevin and Mariah’s kiss and Hardings walk off kiss with Abby was great.
I LOVE Jack and Adam’s scenes. Justin Hartley is knocking it out of the park!
I think that any woman who decides to take Phyllis on would have to go nuts to do so.
I am sure that is what really happened to Sharon.
I agree!!
I like the Kelly scenario, Timmm. Has anyone else noticed how her derrière has grown overnight? LOL. Kardashian-like butts are in…ugh…..so now , the new fad is to grow a big posterior……everybody has one.
Everybody has one or everybody acts like one–some manage to have and do both at the same time.
I hadn’t noticed Kelly’s “Kim Like” butt but please no Kayne!!!! Speaking of Kelly though, I am glad she got rid of those straight bangs. It made he face look heavier and also it appeared as though it was an attempt to look younger? Either way, they were gone this week. I cannot wait for her and RED to rip each other a part!
Has there ever been a woman who has not locked horns with Phyllis? There must always be an antagonist ready to take the plunge with her. But, somehow, Phyllis always comes out on top.
As for Kelly, yes, she does look a bit more sophisticated without bangs. Yet, I find it hard to get Dixie Cooney (sp.) out of my head….ugh. Yeah, I am waiting for the cat fight with trepidation…LOL. What else is new? Cricket, Sharon, Gina, not sure about Diane, now Kelly etc…… and, the beat goes on. THEY ARE SIMPLY TOO OLD TO ACT LIKE SCHOOLGIRLS . Fighting over Jack? Lordy Lord.
On a different note, the Kardashians invaded my neck of the woods this past summer. Believe me, their butts are not very appealing in person….especially on the beach…..hang like a lumpy sack of potatoes. LOL.
My FAVORITE moment:
Mariah (to Kevin): “Don’t you get any ideas.”
Kevin (to Mariah): “Don’t you get any ideas.”
L-O-L HILARIOUS!!!!!
H A P P Y 2 0 1 5 EVERYONE!!!!!
PEACE.
Fave couple Joe and Avery (though they didn’t kiss this year). Pushing buttons is prelude to a kiss in 2015…
I want-
Stitch and Sharon together so I can FF them both at the same time…
Joe is one sexy hunk, isn’t he?
CeeCee…Y-E-S…Joe is S-O RUGGEDLY DREAMY!!!!! But…to me, GH’s Julian is at THE VERY TOP of the RUGGEDLY DREAMY H-U-N-K list!!!!! Y-U-M!!!!!!
Later, CeeCee. Peace.
CeeCee, I cannot locate your comment in which you speak of Ashley constantly being couple with men young enough to be her son. I have no issue with May December romances but what irks me is that it is never mentioned that Ashley is at least twenty years older than both Joe and Stitch. And she looks kind of ridiculous competing with her daughter and former step daughter for the affection of these men.
I think there is shortage of men in Ashley’s age bracket. The only man who is about her age is her brother Jack
Kelly and Jack
Avery and Joe
Billy and Victoria
Chelsea and Adam
Looking forward to a great year of Y&R!
This show is SO good right now!!! The classy New Year’s Eve hearkened back to the glory days when soaps had a budget and production values! The writing is back to being sophisticated and classic. Abby and this cop have off the charts chemistry, it would be a shame for them not to capitalize on it as this Abby hasnt really clicked with any of her previous leading men. Kevin and Mariah rock! The Phyllis/Kelly/Jack triangle is what soaps are made of. I could do without the plastic surgery of Adam, that is a bit too GH for me, but Justin Hartley is awesome in the role. I may draw the ire of an entire fan base, but I never liked Adam when he was played by Muhney. He was too one-note for me, just my opinion….no need to circle the wagons and attack…Im not going to change my mind. LOL. The current writers have put so much good storytelling into place, I just hope Pratt doesnt come in and dismantle all their efforts. I also really enjoy the Warehouse District storyline. It is real and relatable, and is roping in characters we know and.care about and doesnt feel forced. I even kind of like smarmy Joe Clark. He is a good instigator and could go in any number of directions as he has chemistry with many people. All in all, after am excruciatingly boring couple of years, it feels like we have our show back. Hoping for a 2015 that is as good as the last part of 2014 was!
LOL
“…no need to circle the wagons and attack…Im not going to change my mind. ”
really nice write up for Genoa City
“…after an excruciatingly boring couple of years, it feels like we have our show back “
enter Chuck Pratt.
But yes, Patrick, I do agree.
Aden, love your post. I was a huge Michael Muhney fan and yes, I did not feel Adam should be recast. I have to give it up to casting and to the actor–together they have hit a home run.
I am also turning into a Phyllis fan. Now it’s my turn to invoke the wrath of the torch carrying fans—I never liked Michelle’s scene chewing Phyllis. I love Gina’s Phyllis. I find myself rooting for her.
Kevin and Mariah for sure. They are fast becoming my second favorite couple after Michael and Lauren. I love that they are taking it slow with them.
Yes to a Mariah and Kevin involvement— couples that start off as good friends always have more entertainment value that those couples that get hot and heavy from day one.
No to Harding and Abby– she has already done the spoiled rich girl hooking up with average joe blue collar guy and it didn’t work. I rather see Abby with Stitch long term, and Vicky back with Billy.
As for a Kelly and Phyllis feud a brewing– I get it is entertainment, but it really goes against who Kelly is as person. It is like a mouse going against a loin. Also it is rather sad to watch two mature women cat fighting over a man. I get that impulse when you are younger– but please these women are old enough and should be mature enough to know by now, no man is worth all that hassle– LOL.
And lastly I want Kyle to come back and kick Austin to the curb– nothing wrong with the actor, but honestly either flesh out the character a bit or send him packing, because right now all he is eye candy on Summer’s arm.
Well, Mary , I have been saying the same thing about these actors/ actresses being given infantile, teen roles. It is not entertaining to see grown women scratch their eyes out as such…..it brings them down a peg; or two.
I once saw two elderly men fight at church. It was the oddest, saddest, entertaining thing I EVER saw. It happened years ago and I still remember it! One of the guys was my Sunday school teacher in which I never looked at him the same way again!
CeeCee,
H-o-n-e-y…in more ways than one, you are so RIGHT ON!!!!! To me, Nikki HAS ALWAYS BEEN such a MAJOR DOWNER…T-O-T-A-L B-L-A-H!!!!! Also, RIGHT ON about Abby…I (also) would L-O-V-E to see that ANNOYINGLY STUPID chick disappear…that would bring me such soap-opera-filled J-O-Y…LOL!!!!! Most of all, I think that the E-N-T-I-R-E Newman family is a major S-C-R-E-A-M!!!!! To me, those Newmans are W-A-Y MORE DYSFUNCTIONAL than The Addams Family…LOL!!!!! And, more and more, I have this image in my head of Mariah thinking to herself, “You Newman people have clearly lost your damn minds.” LOL!!!!!
CeeCee, you and your family have an AWESOME 2015!!!!! Peace.
Exhibit A of how absurd it looks when older characters are written the same as they were in the 80’s and 90’s…Bobbie and Lucy on GH. After the glorious, game changing writing of Claire Labine, which allowed all the characters to bond and grow and man ture…along comes Ron Carlivati who completely dismantled all that and now has Bobbie and Lucy, women in their 60’s, rolling around on a bed fighting over Scott Baldwin. How absurd and degrading. These women should be more.concerned about breaking a hip, or that one of their altered body parts might pop and the silicone would leak out, not slugging and fighting each other. It is refreshing and rewarding when we can watch characters mature over the years. A prime example is Jack Abbott. He went from a sleazy bed hopping playboy in his youth to a loving and devoted man who always tries his best, but doesnt always succeed. Could you imagine how grotesque it would be if he was still being written as he was 30 years ago?? Victor never changes, he just keeps gettong more malicious. What would a man pushing 80 still be so power hungry for? He has all the money in the world, him and his family want for nothing. Its time for him to retire, grab a colourful hat, and go to Florida and chill out. Erica Kane from AMC was another one who, despite her 40 years of trials and tribulations, never learned a single life lesson and was written as a petulant, immature teenager for the duration of the show’s run. It is often written that happy couples are boring. How on Earth would anyone know that when that is the one thinformation g that has never truly been attempted on daytime before???? When writers have made the effort to keep couples together and happy, however rare, they were never boring. Eden and Cruz from Santa Barbara were never boring. Bo and Hope were never boring. Luke and Laura were never boring. Nick and Sharon were never boring for the many years they were a solid couple. Soap writers seem to think, and I dont know why, that endless rounds of break ups and divorces and remarriages are interesting. Memo….they’re not. I think of Carly and Jack from ATWT. By the end of the show’s run, when they had their 17th remarriage, viewers were long past the point of caring or emotional investment. A new writing approach is seriously needed on soaps. Until then, they will never be relevant or important again.
Aden, what a great post! Yours too, Cee Cee. I completely agree with you both.
In memory of the late great Joan Rivers, I would like to say to these people stuck in arrested adolescence, “OH Grow up!”
Timm, there’s a short story there. Try writing about it.
Nick & Sharon (& a big wedding!)
Billy & Victoria
Adam & Chelsea
Dylan & Avery
Stitch & a love triangle with Ashley & Abby
# Nikki to throw Victor out on his backside once the truth comes out about his involvement in the warehouse district redevelopment. I want everyone to turn their back’s on TGVN & all my Christmas’ would come at once if EB was written off the show! (A girl can dream….. )
I love Kevin and Mariah together. I remember when Greg first came to genoa city it was the year before Cassie passed away. Camryn was only a teen then so young. I’m glad she’d is back now as an adult. They are a sweet pair . I think Chloe is gonna cone back with Kevin’s baby not Billy’s. Just a hunch! Wouldn’t that make great tv? I think so ! 🙂 also I am living justin Hartley as Adam ! Best recast on the show so far. MM was good but I think Justin will outdo MM in the Adam department ! He has got it down and I love it can’t wait til Chelsea finds out! Sage hmm what do think the odds are she is the driver who hit dee dee? I think it’s a very big possibility she did . She did show up at her memorial.. Maybe Gabriel is the one who did it and she knows… Just saying I got to see today’s early episode as I get yr a day early. It was one of them Gabriel or sage or both maybe they were in the car together that night ?
OMG, Mariah and Chloe would go toe to toe! Yeah, I think its Kevin’s baby since Billy is the father of Victoria’s.
Sharon and Nick…………….always and forever
The rest I do not care about.
Sharon and Nick are so worn out there is nothing left of them..
They are now ”has beens” / the thrill is gone..
Now that they are old their ‘chem’ factor has gone way down..
Nick needs a smart hot sext woman, a woman to bring his man his man out, he lost his manlyhood being with Sharon.. ..
Sharon, she just needs to disappear..
Hey, Su. I am not a fan of either Sharon or Nick. I’ve definitely lost the thrill of seeing Sharon and Nick together…I agree with that part. But, su, you think they’re old? It is said life begins at 40. LOL.
The problem with these two is forever repeating itself…..it is played out. I do understand your antipathy and ambivalence toward Sharon….especially lately. I find it harder and harder to deal with the Botox. Her face looks to have been stung by a billion bees…..at least, that’s how I see it….puffy, shiny, and bumpy. But, I tolerate her. I think I would miss her if she left, albeit she’s not one of my faves, as she once was.
I would rather see Abby disappear. I don’t see her purpose except to fill useless space. I’d like to see Victor go away too, but I believe he’s one of the main “ingredients” making Y&R what it is. So, he’s a permanent fixture until he decides to leave. I really think he’s the boss.LOL.
Also, Nikki brings me down, down, down. Her melancholy, her subterfuge, her Wah, Wah, Wah,…..Lordy, Lord; so depressing. Later.
Nick needs a hot woman to “bring his man out”?
There’s a very witty retort in there somewhere but I got nothing.
To me, Nick and Sharon are always going to end up back together. Its like they are the younger version of Victor and Nikki.
Hi Cee Cee..
the whole of Y&R is depressing / blah ..
Nobody has a good time, never a laugh, nothing exciting, and its’ star couple Dylan and Avery are a snore..
Dylan has zero of a personality, he’s much like wallpaper just their….
Y&R no longer holds any excitement for me (new Billy is horrible and new Phyllis is overkill as a bitch)
(pssssstttt botox yes, but sharon has cheek implants, yup.. and 1000 hair etions lol
I just love Mariah and Kevin but I can’t stand the actress who plays Summer. She can’t act and I think she gets to much air time. Today was so cute Mariah & Noah babysitting little Faith teasing one another over who Sharon likes best then it’s ruined, Guess who’s at the door SUMMER! Damn will the writers give us a break from that thing?? PLEASE
Nikki…Y-E-S…THANK YOU!!!!! It is BEYOND TIRESOME seeing that WHINY WATERWORKS Summer onscreen nearly every damn minute!!!!! H-o-n-e-y…I wish that S-O-M-E-O-N-E at Y&R would show Summer The Train-Wreck THE DOOR…N-O-W!!!!! And, Nikki…I , also, love both Kevin and Mariah!!!!! ESPECIALLY MARIAH!!!!!
Happy 2015, Nikki. Peace.
Summer is a sullen, petulant, self entitled, whiny, mopey, mean spirited little brat and I hate her.
But as Osgood Fielding says at the end of Some Like it Hot after Jack Lemmon reveals himself to be a boy, “Nobody’s perfect,”
Happy New Year to you too Jaybird, I agree with everything you said. When you break it down Lauren & Michael’s cancer is every couple of days, so is Sharon & Nick’s custody battle, Billy/Victoria & Stitch,Victor/Nikki & Paul drama, Jack/Phyllis & Kelly story,Jack & Adam Wow what a story,More please of Mariah & Kevin Bring back Tracy Abbott. Fenmore is in a band can’t we hear him play? Lets see Devon & Hilary get caught. We have so many great story’s & we have that damn Summer in every one of them. When she showed up at Sharon’s place to see Faith they should have told her to visit with Faith at her Fathers place. Check out TMZ & other soap photo’s great pictures from their New Year’s bash & that Summer in her black tent shoved herself in all. I want to see more of Noah & his girlfriend.
Summer gets waaaaay too much airtime.
I sent a couple of letters out One to C.B.S. and the other to Sony because I really feel like this is a prejudice. It’s almost a favoritism for her. I’m waiting for Michael to go into the hospital for surgery I’ll bet she’s a nurse’s helper, of course she’s involved with the Phyllis/ Jack/ Kelly story because of her mother, she’s involved with the custody of Faith because of Faith. We can’t see Victor /Nikki without her because she’s the grandaughter, Noah & Courtney yep she’s Courtney’s best friend. Can’t go to the coffee shop she’s there, Underground no again her father own’s it. I told Sony & C.B.S. I didn’t want them to take my word for it & they should tune in for a week or two. It’s going to get worse because their bringing back Jack’s son Kyle.
Yup. Nikki. I said this before…I want Neil to get his sight back….(we’ve already had a glimpse that it’s returning.)….and catch those no good cheaters. I really despise those two. I want the entire town to stone them.
However, this should be a lesson for Neil to stop messing with girls young enough to be his daughters…..it never works.
Your right, younger isnt always better because in the end, it almost always matters. Case in point, Larry King. His wife is a lot younger and beautiful. Larry has nine toes in the grave! Its disturbing to even see them together. She cheated and then went back to him. I wish any couple well but as soon as Mr. Kings suspenders are six feet under his wife will be boppin the first cable guy through the door! Age is just a number but it means something.
Well, people will always be pissed because of her accusations against MM. HOWEVER, we have all moved on and Summer is a thorn in the side of Y&R, regardless. She is in on too many stories, shes young and dresses like a homeless woman, and she is the Debbie Downer of everyone’s fun! Send her on a modeling shoot to Alaska!
Timmm your right she was the start of the problem with MM. but I could not stand her long before him. We have all moved on and I like Justin H, I think he’s a great Adam but she is still being shoved down our throats. Count the number of times she on in a week! She;s also a little butt kisser, Now she’s talking about how wonderful E.D. is in RHOBH. like she never stops. Now that their bringing Kyle back we’re going to be seeing her big fat face & bushy eyebrows every day. Let’s hope she stays whatever color her hair is now so we don’t have to see her big black roots as well!
HaHa, Alaska !! Maybe she can be part of the Palin family and join one of their moose-hunting trips, ….never to return.
2015 wishlist:
1.ashley gets a huge love and corporate storyline that she desrves, nikki/ victor/ asley / joe!!!! get ashley away from amateur hour wth vikki and stich.
2.bye bye to the actors impersonating the real vikki and billy. not cutting it!! the real vikki is a shrewd female version of victor newman not a whiny princess on slow motion. the real billy is a younger version of jack abbott playboy businessman not a good ol’ southern boy!
3. leslie and tyler back! with hilary and devon , neil deserves true love with leslie, reveal the real reason leslie went and married the doc out of nowhere! tyler was oozing badboy charm and sex appeal, once its revealed cane kept devon and hilarys affair secret , let lily turn to tyler pleaseee! tyler s the next malcolm!!!
4. bring back nina!! jill vs nina!! nuff said!
5. bring back some of the original musical score!! y n r s not the same, some musics gotten better, some is still off somehow..
Your right, Ashley deserves a top notch story line. Look what she did over at Days! Billy acts like he is John freakin Denver! I disagree with Jill. I think she should be written off. Her and Colin are a snorefest! IF the bring back the original Tucker and send Colin back to GH, Jill might have a purpose on the show.
I think Colin and Ashley would have made a much better couple.
There are not enough available men between the age of 40 to 60 in Genoa City.
Pretty soon Ashley is going to hit on Reed or Johnny.
My favourite couple has always been Nick & Sharon. Hope they get back together soon. I also like Billy & Victoria & Avery & Dylan. I was never fond of Adam, but like the recast. I like him with Chelsea. Can’t stand Phyllis. Never did. The only ones I really care about are Nick & Sharon!
Of course I’m going to say Kevin & Mariah, because right now, they’re the cutest, most real couple on the show. I just hope they don’t rush them into anything. Right now, it’s moving along nice and slow, which is what a real relationship does.
I had only one thing to say when Harding kissed Abby. “It’s about time!” I have wondered when the writers were going to finally have someone with a bigger attitude on them go after that brat, and he really shut her up! I am SO hoping that Harding will knock Abby down a few feet from that high horse she’s on and she’ll finally become a human being instead of such a mouthy monster. And she used to be such a NICE child!
While some are hoping for Jack and Phyllis to continue their relationship, I have a feeling that Kelly is going to be written as the newest psycho on the show and will be doing little underhanded things that Phyllis can’t really nail her on, but Kelly will be batting her eyes and mooning to Jack that Phyllis is really picking on her so he’ll come back to her. I really dislike the way that the writers have taken a great character (as portrayed by Cynthia Watros) and made her into this weepy, hand-wringing, gushing female with no backbone. I THINK they’re writing her with a bit of one now, but I’m not sure, because I can’t tell where McClain is going with Kelly. But I can hope for the best. This is an interesting storyline, however.
Paul & Chris having a child at their age? Well, that’s pretty rare, first of all. And no, I don’t think he’s going to end up with Nikki. I think he’s just worried about his friend, whom he knows is drinking (or has been) again, and while that is something to worry about, it’s going to end up breaking up his marriage, or cause Chris to lose the child, which will end the marriage anyway. Just a gut feeling on my part.
Stitch and Vicki, Billy & Chelsea, Adam & Sage, Ashley & Joe, Devon & Gwen plus Hilary & Neil, Dylan & Avery, Lily & Cane, even Victor & Nikki are all just “eh” to me. While Stitch & Vicki are finally together, has it been six weeks since Katie was born? That’s the normal time before one usually is able to have sex. Was just a thought that crossed my mind when she and Stitch were messing up the couch (don’t they have beds on that show?).
The Sage & Adam story intrigues me. She’s Gabriel’s wife? Great, now how does Adam get back to Chelsea? And will he be able to do so before she marries dull-nuBilly? What I’m really hoping for is to see Adam going after Victor and Joe on this warehouse district buyout by using Bingham money and taking everything away from Victor again, then revealing himself. That would be great.
Hilary & Devon will be found out soon, now that Neil is starting to see again and no one but Phyllis knows about it. That’s going to be a big one; whether Neil realizes asking a woman his daughter’s age to marry him in less than 3 months was wise will finally hit home or not is another question. I don’t know why that man jumps into relationships so fast…
I realize they’re trying to find a love interest for Ashley, but having her have sex with Stitch and dating Joe (both of whom are way younger than she is) is crazy. Have her be with Harding if Abby doesn’t take to him, or find her a new man, one who’s closer to her age and in the business. It would make a lot more sense. And when is Stitch going to be exonerated and given back his life, and WHEN are we going to find out who that blonde woman was driving the black SUV the same night Adam was driving and Delia was killed? Was it Maureen? Kelly? Nikki? Someone else, maybe Sage or Constance, before she was in the chair? I’d really like to know, because I feel Adam was set up, big time, by someone.
Well, I’m hoping that Michael and Lauren will continue to be a strong couple (and he beats the cancer) in 2015, and I really look forward to seeing more of Kevin and Mariah. And as much as I love Jill, I really hope that she’ll see Colin isn’t the man for her, and calls Larry Wharton to come back and be her lover again. I miss that man!
wolfy
That’s the last time Billy and Chelsea are going to be “happy”. Adam is slowly creeping between this dull as dirt relationship. Couldn’t happen soon enough. Chadam is my favorite. Chelsea is not over her husband by a long shot! Billy just does not measure up.
None of these couples are compelling TV. The show is repetitive garbage. Y&R has run out of gas. I keep reading that Chuckie Pratt is about to kill off a bunch of characters during February sweeps. Frankly, he needs to wipe Genoa City off the map and start over. So boring.
Maybe Charley will do us a favor. My “Kill Off” list is as follows.
Summer Breeze
Aint life a Stitch!
A Winters Tale
Dylan me Softly with his Song!
I want
Chelsea and Adam together and Victoria and Billy together

The 53rd Annual Daytime Emmy Award nominations kicked-off on Monday with the announcements of four major categories including, Outstanding Lead Performer in a Daytime Drama Series — Actor, and among the nominees is General Hospital’s Steve Burton (Jason Morgan).
Burton is already a two-time Daytime Emmy winner in the Supporting Actor category for his roles as GH’s Jason and his turn as Dylan McAvoy on Y&R. However, Steve is yet to win in the Lead Actor category and he has received 11 nominations along the way in his daytime career.
Following the reveal that he is a 2026 Daytime Emmy nominee, he and his GH co-star, podcast co-host and comedy show partner, Bradford Anderson (Spinelli) taped a special edition of their That’s Awesome podcast just featuring Burton’s reaction to the news.

FOR LESLIE CHARLESON
Steve expressed, “I know it’s such a cliche to say, ‘I’m just so honored to be nominated.’ But truly, I’m so grateful to be nominated, so grateful to just be on the show off and on for 30 plus years and to be nominated with the guys in my category. Just to get the opportunity. Frank (Valentini, executive producer, GH) texted me right away. I was just like, ‘Thank you for the opportunity to get to do what I do.'”
Taking in the moment, Burton thanked those who helped him select the material for his nominated reel. “Unless you win, you don’t get to say things. So. I’m going just say a few things: Elizabeth Korte (co-head writer, GH) helped me a lot with the material, (as did) Michelle Henry, who’s a producer on the show, Laura Wright (Carly, GH), and then my wife Michelle (Lundstrom). I believe it was Jill Phelps who told me that when A Martinez felt like he had a great show or great scenes, he would mark it down. So, when Emmy time comes, you have all the show numbers written down, and you don’t have to think about it, because that’s half the battle (finding the material).
Burton explained how meaningful this nomination is for him, because of playing the scenes of Jason losing Monica, and his closeness with the late, great Leslie Charleson.
“The nomination’s an amazing thing, and it’s beautiful, but really it’s to honor Leslie Charleson. A lot of my material was because of her, and how I started on the show as a Quartermaine, it just means a ton,” shared Burton. “Maurice Benard (Sonny, GH) has obviously has been instrumental, and I’ve said it from day one and I’ll shout it from the rooftops. If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t be here, and to be working with the people that we work with is incredible.”

SHOULD JOHN OLIVER BE NAMED HOST OF THE DAYTIME EMMYS?
During the end of his conversation with Anderson, Steve suggested that the host of the Daytime Emmy should be Last Week Tonight’s John Oliver, who recently guest starred as the head of the WSB named Z on General Hospital, and is soon to show up on Days of Our Lives in a mystery role in August.
Thus far, the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has not revealed their host for the upcoming ceremony to be held on October 30 in a venue to be named in Hollywood, California.

It’s a milestone we couldn’t let pass by without taking some time to celebrate as a family (and, of course… eating some cake). 🍰 We hope you enjoy watching it as much as we did making it.”
