hi Randy,
yes it’s a soap and nobody is real and that is why I can squish the Wussy Man with my toe!

And I’m a sweetheart, actually.
To know me is to love me 😉 lol

Don’t get yourself upset this is Suoo she is a fantastic shit stirrer!!!

Chuckle. Suoo used to push my buttons too, Randy. But now she kind of cracks me up. I did not want Graham to die! I know he was dastardly, but there was a glimmer of fun in this man. Did they have to make him 100 evil? I thought I saw something there (a heart?(but I guess I was wrong. The reason Y&R continues to be the number one rated soap is because it consistently pays fidelity to core families and core characters. It’s that simple. Sure, there have been a few missteps and mistakes made along the way but… Read more »

another classic k/kay…”shit stirrer!” LOL…first it was “dating sperm” and now this. LOL!

I am Randy…

Sounds like you should let people have an opinion. The new format sucks. When Mariah yelled at Tessa, I wanted to go back the next day and see reactions to that right then and there……instead, we only get aftermaths and people talking about what happened instead of seeing it. Makes me not care about the storylines. I’ve been watching for 30 years. I’m not going to stop because they’re doing something I don’t like because just like every soap, changes get made all the time and maybe at some point this guy will change it back again.

Kevin, you’re Randy?

Hi toscanti and bianca…I respect you all and your opions but I totally agree with Bianca that the new format sucks and I love Y&R…toscanti, actually the writing that Sally with Kay as a consultant is what started Y&R back to where it should be but the 2 things I don’t care for is the new format that Mal started like Bianca and I mentioned of not seeing something play out and then, here I go again and it’s been years that it’s been gone and I miss it so is the beautiful classic background music which added so much… Read more »

Hi Randy, NO I am not Randy, to different people

Austin Powers would say,”I am feeling kind of Randy, baby!”

heeey Harry ..
I’ll bet you a Dairy Queen, Large of course, that JT is going to burn Victoria and not only burn her but she will be extra crispy..
You agree yes?

Um. yes, I think I agree Suoo.
So you’re saying JT loves Victoria but loves her not medium rare, but well done?

LOL, Harry. I read your question, “are you randy?” but I honestly didn’t know if you were referring to the English definition and were joking or if you sincerely meant it…since Kevin said he was randy! THAT is funny! (no offense to Kevin; nice poster!) though that was a tad confusing!

Rebecca, fancy seeing you here. I was engaging in a little word play. Yes, I meant “randy” as in horny.
But also, sometimes a comma can make all the difference between,”I am eating, Mother” and “I am eating Mother.”
Commas saves lives!

I “stroll” on over here occasionally. Watch the show very sporadically…a bit when Justin Hartley was on, when Steve Burton was on (only watched a bit then discovered I REALLY like DOOL! Got into that very quickly (and recently). I also took note when Scott Grainger was announced on Y&R, then the exit…he reminds me (physically) of Aidan Turner (and a bit of Matt Cohen). So, had to check him out! Like to tune in to any of MF’s with threads about ratings; soap anxiety (:) ) hoping the numbers are good enough so that we don’t have another soap… Read more »

@Boop. I love Dina too, just sorry they chose to cut off the story, and just shipping her of to Paris like that, probably never to be seen again. Now, the aftermath of Graham’s death and probably Ashley being of interest to the police, does not interest me. Dina’s gone, so let’s just get on with the other SLs . Sorry folks, or anyone this offends, but I’m not looking forward to a Tess and Mariah pairing. Hope Adam comes back, as Chelsea and Nick are a snooze fest, clothed or not! Hillary wants a baby, whoopie! Can’t wait to… Read more »

Hi Harry, I agree that Y&R is great about respecting it’s history and the core families…

Harry, cut that out!!!! LOL… I am doubled over laughing…”Kevin, you’re Randy?”
That wit of yours is a GIFT….not too many can come up with a pungent, yet hysterical retort in a NY minute.

Thanks, Harry, but…..Not true…..I make so many typos that sometimes I find it hard to understand what I wrote myself. I need to get into the habit of rechecking my writing…..for some reason, my ipad does not autocorrect.

In case I did not make myself clear, Harry…..I do get the double entendre ( double meaning) of the word, “randy”….you are a genius, my clever friend….just ask Ron…he’s an English teacher…his specialty.

Celia, I knew you got it.
You do write so very well. I would have said so before but was trying to give you some personal space and didn’t want to appear disingenuous.

Thanks, Harry…I read too much….sometimes my brain is so full ( of what I don’t know, LOL) , I can feel the words bounce off hither and yon.

Celia…as always, RIGHT ON!!!!! I mean…to me, Cane is like a younger version of Jack The Cad. And, to me, Cane is BEYOND SPINELESS!!!!! And if I see ONE MORE CANE AND LILY FLASHBACK SCENE, I am gonna throw SOMETHING out of my living room window…LOL!!!!! ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!!

Celia…have a good one, my friend.

PS, Jay, it’s not enough that Tessa had to steal Mariah’s heart, she also had to steal her journal and her words! I think Mariah should pull a Taylor Swift and write her own song about Tessa and get it covered by……well, Taylor Swift!!! I smell a guest star cameo coming. You go get her, Mariah and Taylor.

Hey, Jay, You got me thinking…firstly, I have never liked Jack…so, I needed to get that out. His holier-than-thou-‘tude does not work for me. His core is tainted….he’s not a good person. He and Victor are more alike than they realize….they will both stab anyone in the back, even their own ‘blood’, if it benefits them…the me, myself and I syndrome, as I call it…I know people like that, Jay. Basically, the writing ( soaps, in this case) mimics real life in most cases. Secondly, I have always loved Ashley…but, now, since her personality is somehow “changed”, thanks to the… Read more »

Thank you, Harry. Coming from you, it means so much….you can’t even imagine how much!!!!
Peace!!

Gosh, Celia, I should tell you that more often–you’re a wonderful writer and you don’t make careless mistakes like I do.

I realize thst, Boop…but, two wrongs do not make a right, except in Algebra, LOL. No, seriously….I don’t mean about the cheating so much ( for which I would never forgive my husbsnd anyway….no excuse for it), it was the web of lies Cane wove. Correct me if I’m wrong ( I may be), but, I think Lily fessed up. I am not saying what she did was right, but she did tell Cane. I think this was discussed at length on both occasions—yes, there’s always room for forgiveness, I am just not one of those women. ….of course, it… Read more »

Celia, you’re not wrong. Lilly did fess up but I think it was kind of hard for her to say,”This is not what it looks like” when Cane discovered his naked wife in his worst enemy’s bed.

I wasn’t watching Y&R when Thad and Amelia were on before. Then I hear they were a real item but are now splitting. Could have fooled me. They really seem to be into each other on the soap. That takes real acting to pull this off based on the circumstances. Or is it all acting? Wonder if this will help be a bridge to getting them back together in real life?

And then there was Max and Marla. Wow…especially Marla/Dina. I didn’t know her from before, and was so impressed with her on the tough role she has just played. She’s such a lovely, talented actress. Will miss her. And I think that Dina’s adrenalin could have kicked in and she could catch Graham off balance and put the syringe into his arm by accident. And Max was also impressive as Graham. Always don’t like it when they kill a character like him off in case they want to resurrect him in the future. He was such a good villan.

Sorry I pad jumping again ugh

True, K/kay…..JT is on ( probably) some kind of opiate ( barbiturate, narcotic or something), which will eventually catch up to him. We saw a little display of the effects, today……the way he grabbed Reed. So, K/Kay, should we brace ourselves from what’s to come???? Another drug-addiction-detox storyline. Oh, joy!!!! Very astute of you…..why did Mac divorce JT? Hmmmm….good question. Is it because of his addiction?…. if he is addicted in the first place…… ….I think Victoria is so enraptured and enwrapped with what’s happening with her head, her heart, her body and emotions, she hasn’t come up for air…..she… Read more »

I know just hits close to home you walk in what I did yesterday you are disgusted she had no ideas what was going on we have to treat her as a child to get her bathed

He is issuing the beats but that’s ok I will always support y &R even if I do not watch it to stay on the air ! He can do better!!!

Ok last comment you are asking me to yes it is a soap to accept his writing can’t do it

I know some people who ‘ve had Alzheimer’s ,too and it has presented itself in the manner as Dina’s. Therefore, it affects people in different ways.

Celia he says he has mother who had Alzheimer’s? This can’t possibly herstory no way walk a memory loss unit they could be fuming the walking dead and you watch your loved ones and can’t believe what you are seeing I am dissapointed I now wish he had never gone there.

And I am done with I pad gosh almighty

Oh, please, Harry….Nick and Chelsea…the tool belt, the shower not working, the greeting at the door in her bustier ( which is F.A.N.T.A.S.T.I.C –just not with them)….. Also, and this is strictly from a woman’s point of view,….Nick told Chelsea he had ordered boxes of her favorite perfume…BOXES!!!!! Well, unless she uses a bottle per day, perfumes expire. It is not wine, we’re talking about, where its body, fragrance and flavor get better with age!!!!! When sitting in a bottle for just a few months, perfume starts to stink….literally, fetid smell. LOL. Another example of writers not doing their homework.… Read more »

I love Maugham’s works and wonder if any of the current writers even know any of those titles! If they know P and P, it’s probably from a cheesy film version. And, very true: the writers mock the character of Ravi and shame on Phyllis for “being such a good friend” to put him a crappy blind date, a date that was cruel and manipulative.

in a crappy blind date.

Ravi should have been cast as an Indian prince—I see it. He has all the makings of royalty…..he’s handsome and cultured…sadly, there are not enough ‘younger’ women in GC ( not meant as an ageist comment, honest !!LOL) . That’s a fact….Mariah would have been perfect !!
You are right….Ravi is being soooo underused.

Hi Harry, you are also an excellent writer and hilarious, I laughed and and got a kick out of the comment you made about your robovac, lol…Also I agree with what you said about Ravi, excellent idea…

At least Billy came to Ravi’s rescue, telling him what Hillary’s motives were. I bet somewhere along the way, Devon will rise to the occasion. He practically salivates in her presence.

Celia, so happy to know you realize perfume expires. So many women don’t and it’s hard to be in their presence. This is especially insidious when you are on the treadmill next to a woman wearing a heavy amount of expired perfume which merges with the smell of sweat.

Harry, Harry, Harry…I also love a lot of US/Brit punk rock amongst my other music interests. But you are in the spirit of above comments because The Smiths/Morrissey are British. Really like “How Soon Is Now.” Could go on and on but I’m sure MF would not want me to. Very sad a member of one of my favorite bands with an edge, The Zombies, passed away last week. I say passed away because the music carries on. Like Youtube helps us with past year soaps.

@Harry….Thank you for your kind comments! I hear you about British music! I was not so much into the punk movement, but I adored “The New Romantics” of the ‘80’s!!!! (And still do….) As for the Smiths….I think they may have been quite prescient about the royal demise….they were simply a bit premature in predicting it…when Her Majesty departs this mortal coil, I suspect she may take the monarchy with her, but, hey, it had a good innings, yes???? As for “ShyDi-mania?”I was not a participant in that particular phenomenon either….she made an unquestionably beautiful “Princess Bride,” but that highly-fabricated… Read more »

@Rose…..I agree we probably have much more in common than it has appeared as of late…For example, I think we share many of the same basic moral values and concerns regarding certain societal problems that are currently plaguing this country…we simply are vexed and perplexed by each other’s polar opposite ideas and ideals in reference to how they can be addressed and corrected. Same situation when it comes to various GH characters and storylines! But I have always tried to show you respect when we have discussed our differences on a one-on-one basis, Rose….we did that quite pleasantly for an… Read more »

Shay…I’m afraid I can’t take credit for being the Rose from across the pond” you found amongst the Markle comments. Even when you look at MF there are several Roses. I can see how “real” Brits may be protective of their monarchy, and who is allowed to become part of the family. But from what i’ve read and heard about Meghan I hope they give her a chance. Nobody’s perfect or comes without baggage. Speaking of British series interests, I found a new one that’s really amusing called “Miranda.” Their humor from Monty Python to “Are You Being Served” can… Read more »

Hey, what’s Shay doing here?
Welp! There goes the neighborhood! Okay, I know you know I am kidding, Shay.
I like the new found peace which has washed over this site. You all are very forgiving souls and I thank you for that.
Now I am going to tip toe out before I say something stupid to ruin it.

Rose and Shay, I have never been very interested in the current Royal family. I was not one of those who obsessed over Princess Di. Don’t get me wrong, I didn’t dislike her and I was sad about her untimely death, but I didn’t invest a lot of emotion into this person. I just didn’t get the fascination with her. I am an alternative rock/punk rock fan and have been since my college days. I especially love The Smiths and think of The Smiths singing about how the monarchy is dead. That said, I watch Victoria on PBS and The… Read more »

Hey Rose…I left you a message somewhere…don’t even know now which thread! Was it YOU who mentioned Oultander…I was confused, too, because one “rose” has an uppercase and one a lower…as you do now! Maybe we should have numbers or letters after our names if there are posters with the same name!

I have seen a Rebecca without the number 1…though only a few times…and I think I’ve seen a Becca. And then there are two Kevins, etc….

Too funny. At this point I’d rather we post with our name/faces like no Facebook! THAT would clear up the confusion!

“on” Facebook, not “no”….

Hey, rose,
There are actually only two Roses…you, lower case…then Rose, cap….no more than that….
Rose’s writing is unique, yours very familiar—- as is Mark, very familiar. Mark Y is another gentleman.
And only one Kevin…and Kevin C….both gentlemen.
Then there was a Becky—-only once…..who made an appearance a while back to only post in a condescending manner. If she or he posted again, I may have missed it…..not on this site.
I hope the rif-raf is not trickled here. As Mr. Fairman warned, no punches. I left that behind.
Peace.

Agreed with MF the first three times ….I guess that includes antagonism not so obvious like when one posts about others (as above) having an “agenda”. When all of that stops, “peace” is certainly a welcome goal.

@Rose…As a longtime “Anglophile,” I am an avid observer of many things British…their phenomenal entertainment programming, fascinating news offerings that I never fail to peruse on a daily basis and yes, the royal family, although my interest in the institution is much more from a past perspective than its increasingly tabloid present. However, the current “issue” which we have discussed is undeniably at the fore these days, and I do feel a great deal of sympathy for the people of that nation and their overwhelming opposition to the interloper in their midst. This is a vastly different situation from the… Read more »

@Rose…Just wanted you to know that I did reply to you with (an apparently) too lengthy and off-topic response…it failed to post. Would like to think that you personally received it, but probably not. Oh, well! It was still a treat to share our thoughts on all things “Britannia,”…hopefully again sometime on a more appropriate occasion, since I think this is one shared passion upon which we can definitely find some common ground! Until then, take care and enjoy Miranda!

Oh, WOW and holy moly, Shay…I just knew it—I knew that there was something about Faison’s obsession in which went way beyond the norm—I bet they were intimate ( against her will) and she may have blocked it out…..Then, of course , Faison is criminally insane; there is that, and it’s all in his head. Does Faison know Peter /Henrik is his son? And, if so, would he hold him at gun-point?….. Or shoot him? And, Maxie. What is he planning ? A birth a’ la Nina? Ha! If what I ( stupidly) think is true…..that Peter is Anna’s and… Read more »

Shay…Yes I did know Gary was Lucifer. Actually like him better as the cocky/confused-at-times, evil one trying to figure out his relationship with Dad, Mom, and Chloe better than Gary. But Miranda, she’s amazingly funny. Talk about a gift for gab and performance. Sonny would envy her airtime. I’m sure you and i could list a lot of our favorite Brit productions, many times done with the BBC and PBS. But i will mention one of my favorites since it has been in the news of late, and even before the “scandal”…House Of Cards” with Ian Richardson. Another reason why… Read more »

Its Timmm, seems know that Faison has that magical “Sonny Sperm” floating around PC!

A Y&R villain. Look no further than the deliciously evil Ian Ward!

@Shay. Hi, Shay, Welcome…quelle surprise, mon amie…..does this mean you heeded my advise to start rewatching Y&R? You won’t regret it. Stay , Shay!!!! Oopsie, that rhymes. LOL. You are familiar with most of the cast, yes? It won’t be long before you get into the rhythm of “things’……so happy!! Victor and Nikki have reunited for the umpteenth time, recently….supposedly platonic relationship, which only close family members know….but, not the rest of the world, LOL. And, the Abbotts are forever in some kind of tangle. Unfortunately you missed the great Ms Marla…. And, speaking of GH….Anna seems awfully concerned about… Read more »

@CeeCee…Alas, no, I’ve yet to “move” back to Genoa City, but since, unlike in Port Charles, so many of the legacy characters I have known and sometimes loved in the past are still long-standing residents in their hometown, I can still post with some degree of clarity! How different things are in these two “soapspheres,” eh???? At any rate, it is nice to see a great number of my all time favorite MF posters here, as well….that alone may make a future visit to “Wisconsin” (ala Robert Scorpio? Lol…) a prospect to consider! As for your question about Faison and… Read more »

Hey, CeeCee…..Regarding Faison? I know that he is a sick, twisted creep with no redeeming human value, but does that mean that we cannot also find him to be an absolute laugh riot? Just the sight of Anders’ “mad-haired miscreant” made me guffaw with abandon and delight! Then when he was so obsessively stroking Anna’s cheek, the look of utter revulsion on Finola’s face was utterly priceless!!! A “Kodak Moment,” indeed! And….of course, we cannot forget Cesar’s cruel taunt to Liesl when she said she would give him anything he wanted in return for her son’s safety…and he replied something… Read more »

@Shay.
Hey, there, Shay,
Very quickly….you pinned and penned Anna to the letter….priceless ‘Kodak’ moment. What talent to make one’s expression say so much….yet Ms Grahn gets credit for making eye-contact with her obsession.
I, also, liked when Faison, said, ( paraphrasing)…’shut up…just shut up!!!…. only he can tell Liesl to shut up and not get a wise retort, in return….LOL.

Amen to that, CeeCeeGirl!!! Only Faison could make such revolting boorishness so hilariously amusing!!!! Know what would be oh so satisfying??? If Anna and Liesl were to join their lethal skill sets to hunt down this mirthfully maniacal menace once and for al!!! You know, the enemy of my enemy is my friend sort of deal??? Just imagine the b*+@#y banter between these two avowed opponents during their quest ala Cesar……’twould be epic and if they ever were to track down Faison to his secret lair, he wouldn’t know what him hit with these fiercest of femmes out for his… Read more »

Celia- he was on yesterday and the day before-it was a 2 episode Diagnosis Murder where first Dick Van Dyke’s son is shot-I like him and he is handsome and a good actor-but throughout the series his hair color went from one shade to another and another and never seemed to hit the mark. I am not a colorist-but think I could have done a better job on his hair. I have never seen him in any other show-have you? Robert Gentry-even the name I love-swoon. I love Victoria Rowell in this show-she is excellent-never saw her on YR. I… Read more »

@Phyllis. Hi, again, I didn’t watch yesterday….I have three sisters….sometimes they just show up at the same time, LOL…there goes my day!!!! But, I love it. Oh, Victoria, as Dru made Y&R what it was…..Hilary comes close, but, there will never be another Dru…spunky and daring…sometimes obnoxious, but one never stopped loving her. I guess you missed my posts about nuBilly. A terrible copy of my Billy Miller…..Thompson does not meet the qualifications of an authentic Billy Abbott–paired with Phyllis does not help, at least, not for me. Thompson was great as Patrick, but he lacks that laissey-faire, boyish ‘tude,… Read more »

Abby will return. You like her, T….something to look forward to.
I guess Melissa’s pregnancy was written out….as I had suggested, she would be sent somewhere and return after maternity leave.
I am assuming her appearances on video ( from Paris) were pre-recorded weeks ago.
Plus, our favorite billionaire, Devon, will make a baby with Hillary. So exciting!! LOL.
…..which brings me to deduce Mishael is pregnant.

Y&R needs a Faison-type, T…..suddenly he has kids all over the place, including Peter ( Hendricks?), who is also Anna’s son given away at birth?
We both like Eric Braeden as an actor ( as does Harry) and he is killing the character he plays in Victor….but, he pales in comparison.
Graham was a sheep…Zack too young and amaturish….Luca miscast…..
So, we need a baddie without a heart to really disrupt GC’s equilibrium.

You know what I like about Faison? He at least has the decency to stay bad! There’s irony for you. No more redemption storylines on GH. If you introduce a villain to the canvas, keep him a villain. The redemption stories do not work.
Take a look at Franco. Despite the talent of Roger Howarth, Franco is an unmitigated gall.

Franco is an unmitigated failure, not gall. I am having trouble typing on my Jitterbug phone. Forgive all my mistakes.

The magical Sonny sperm? Classic, T……I love Faison!! I don’t know why.
You know? I thought I saw a tear in his eye when with Anna. Does Faison have a smidgen of a heart?

That is so true, Harry….keep villains as villains. People do not really change….only in soaps. I know I keep bringing up Italian adages, but my husband’s grandfather has a barrel-full of them: “the wolf sheds its ‘hair’, but not its habit ” ( il lupo cambia il pelo, ma non il vizio). Fits perfectly, wouldn’t you say? Faison stays true to form. Victor, not as bad as Faison, stays true to form etc. The newest ‘reformee’ is Ava…..Julian will soon follow suit. Sonny is simply a walking contradiction…can’t put a label on him. I love Roger, Harry, but I cannot… Read more »

Harry…I know we’re here and not on GH but since you made the Franco comparison.., if he stayed a literal, psychotic killer then he’d be off the show (LOL, yes; I know that’s your desire as well as some other viewers) and just doing his dastardly deeds every now and then as does Faison. Perhaps at the time they were scrambling to find a new character for Roger they could have chosen more wisely…a long-lost Q…Jason’s twin (before Billy Miller even joined the show). But, they didn’t. And, so, the only way to keep this character on was to redeem… Read more »

@Harry…..You are spot-on regarding Franco! This character is an unmitigated failure no matter how much RoHo has tried to infuse him with ironic humor as Port Charles’ resident court jester. Now we see that just as our beloved Laura has been sacrificed in a foolishly useless attempt to glorify the decidely inglorious Alexis, Kevin’s been equally forced to don his psychological sorceror’s cap in order to conjure up a reason that despite Franco’s mile-long rap sheet of maniacal misdeeds, this perennial pariah really isn’t a monster at all!!! (Thus, it shall be our duty to collectively admire and embrace him.)… Read more »

Hello Harry. Loved Graham. I regret we never got to enjoy him engaging in any dalliances of delightment during his short stay in Genoa City. I can not stand Franco. Sick of his entire storyline and wish he would leave.

Max was stunning, Ron. But, I did not take to Graham. He was your standard baddie—no charisma, albeit many liked him, as yourself. I am in the minority, I know….
He was just too debonaire and suave for me—impeccably dressed– his suits fit mahhhvelously…what’s that old cartoon character? Dishonest John, with the handle-bar mustache? Well, Graham didn’t have a mustache, but I always pictured him with one. HaHa.

Celia– we’ll never know! I’m just hoping the writers didn’t put Dina out to pasture (aka Paris.) I wonder why Abby is there for 2 months (is she pregnant in real life? Vacation? Seems odd for the timing.) Unless– of course– the plot thickens in France? I think it would be brilliant to have Dina hallucinate her former “men” especially John Abbott (I think the actor is still alive) and, naturally, Graham ( I think it would be a clever twist to this story, and from what I know about Alzheimer victims, they “really” do see people from their past.… Read more »

Hi, and LOL, Ron, I have been saying Melissa/Abby was pregnant from the beginning. I guess it’s a woman think….and, I may have read it somewhere…can’t recall. But, when I started noticing her using props, such as folders, a huge hand-bag, carrying her coat over her arm to hide her ‘bump’, I knew she was pregnant. I had said that if TPTB did not incorporate her pregnancy into ‘a storyline’, then, she would be sent away somewhere. Thus, as it so happened, Abby in Paris….where she will remain throughout her maternity leave. LOL.She already has one child ( I believe… Read more »

Ron, surprisingly enough, no one even mentioned Abby’s pregnancy on any of the Y&R sites—I find that kind of weird—I said it so many times, nonetheless, no one seemed interested, I guess?
Also, please ignore the typos ( display)…. ’tis quite embarrassing when corresponding with an English teacher—hanging my head in shame here!! LOL.

Celia

I rarely proof my own messages. The mind works faster than the fingers so I have a blind eye to everyone’s slip ups; mine are at the top of the list!

Celia

Just read Astrophysics for People in a Hurry. I’m still in the dark (matter)– ha ha. It’s like watching an episode of Y and R– 40 minutes= 24 hours.

So, you got my “refraction” post? LOL.
You know, Ron, I could never pass up a clever remark…. “matter” ; such a beautiful word….music to my ears…not that difficult if you line up your atoms in an orderly matter. HaHa.
Speaking of Y&R–no matter what goes on…that is, Chelsea, ironically, said to Hilary, “….people do not change”……Ha!! So, where does this enlightening info fit in case?????
Then, what’s up with Hilary? The PTB are working overtime “changing” her persona. I smell redemption.

When the syringe was stuck in Graham’s arm and he was acting all weird (like being poisoned), I noticed the plunger wasn’t depressed. Why didn’t he just grab it out?

I guess it’s a soap and we just have to go with it, but still….

LOL.

Oh, I forgot about that. Thanks.

Yes, they were, Mo…..it was way before the kids were sorased ten years, LOL.

Hey Celia, how are you? I don’t know how you and others hang in here in the comments unfailingly. I stopped again and again when the majority of mine didn’t make it-and the ones that did threads that made no sense without the others. I love the site-no fake news, love the layout, no pop-ups and other distracting irritants. Also Michael does great interviews and is on top of any breaking news. I turned to YR after other shows cancelled. So Dina was new to me. But I felt I knew her-no not delusional-I hope-anyway, I finally Googled her and… Read more »

Usually the original post would not make it and the follow ups would which made no sense but whatever. Que Sera Soap Sera. So what I am hearing is that you are now the Genie Francis of Michael Fairman Soaps and have left Port Charles-which makes no sense-and handed over your keys to Alexis Davis. Life imitates art? I am going to do my best to get along with everyone in loving harmony. Remind me of that when the bus runs over me and backs up-would you? Now please pack a bag and return from Paris immediately to PC-and bring… Read more »

Shay, I would not trust GH to -well I want to talk about GH with you and get your take on a few things- Marla- I want her to stay and OK if she is long-lost twin or anything to keep her on. Main thing on my feeble mind right now is Cagney & Lacey reboot. For them to do this without even having a conversation with Tyne Daly or Sharon Gless -to me is infuriating, Guess they forgot all the emmys those two raked in. They can certainly carry a show as well as Candice Bergen or Tom Selleck.… Read more »

I never saw Capitol. I wish they would bring back a Soap Channel and replay all of the classics. I found you on a GH thread and gave my two cents on a few things hope you get it. I must say, I have evolved(so been waiting to use that line) regarding Alexis Davis. I saw her the other day on GH and I thought she looked stunning. I had no idea she is almost 62. To me she could pass for 50. She must take great care of herself and it does show. Now if only I could. She… Read more »

This has gone on and on and on for years now. I honestly don’t see anyone getting banned or going away. Let’s focus on sharing our thoughts and feelings on the soaps with others who appreciate our viewpoints or who don’t but are receptive to other viewpoints. Life is too short. Seriously, I wish I could turn back time and erase so many horrid things I have said and done and I am not saying anyone else said or did anything. I’ve taken sides and dived right in and so have numerous others and nothing changes. I’ve really enjoyed both… Read more »

Always a ready reply, readons and excuses, without rhyme or reason….I remember reading a comment made about an obsession for moi. I do not get it? Why me????…there is a sudden interest in Days and Y&R. So transparent.
It is beyond me, how some get away with it. Weird!!

Hey, Phyllis,
I caught a couple of eps when the show first came out….I did think it was hilarious….unfortunately, the timing is not great for me. I didn’t even realize the show was still on. I do like America Ferrera….I used to watch “Ugly Betty” regularly….
I must record the show, so we can talk about it….why not?!

Wishful thinking, ma belle amie….. the fab times we would have! ….Probably drive you nuts with my incessant chatter, LOL.
I am in the same boat as you, and many others, are, Shay……Faison was killed too soon.
I had anticipated ‘spending’ time with him gor sooo long, the rntire funereal ambiance of every episode since Peter came to town, sort of left a bitter taste in my mouth.
It is beginning to look like Peter is Anna’s ….my question is?? How involved is Valentin in all of this?

Do you remember Ross Chandler from AMC? So Handsome and delicious. Why they ever booted him is beyond me. He is on a Diagnosis Murder I am watching and I always loved him. I did not watch YR in Cricket’s heydey. I guess she was a big deal back then and I remember hearing about Cricket and I found her name rather bizarre. When she is on now, she seems rather one-dimensional. Always kind of angry and ready to try a case where she has the facts wrong, loses, or convicts someone we don’t want convicted. Think “sucked a lemon.”… Read more »

Hey, Shay,
I had responded to Phyllis….but,, do not see it….anyway, Cricket used to be very likable. I loved her….i’s since she’s become DA…..she is a sour puss. I still like her, though.
I thought that Cricket and Paul were soulmates; I still do……she just needs to relax, LOL.

Shay and Phyllis, AMC is another defunct soap that I hold dear to my heart. I can’t say I remember Ross Chandler, so I googled him…Robert Gentry? Yes, he was hot, with his ’70’s ‘stache’ , LOL….. I catch a few eps of DIAGNOSIS MURDER, now and then, in the morning….but, I don’t think I’ve ever seen him, albeit I do enjoy watching Victoria Rowell…always loved ‘Dru’…. I love Paul….he seems a very nice, likable guy in real life…..I know Doug has been married to Cindy Fisher ( Dana-Y&R) for a very, very long time, as my Gran says, who… Read more »

Shay darling-is that you behind that prim and proper parasol? Without the seedy and sordid-what would our beloved soaps do? Continue to have old men make everyone kowtow to them and kill and maim in their never-ending quest for power and control. I need more than that. I want flawed characters and bad choices and decisions-not in my personal life-at least not anymore, as there really is no good that comes from that in the long run. How I wish that clarity would have come to me decades ago. But it is here now, thank goodness. But that doesn’t mean… Read more »

Yes, it is…..that is Shay behind that prim and proper parasol, Phyllis….don’t get fooled….beneath that parasol lives a soft, yes, but fierce heart of a lioness who will defend the ‘undefended’ with a banner of strength…….LOL. …
……not only that, but the most loyal, cyber-friend for which one has had the privilefge of “knowing”.
Dear Phyllis….I hope I have not kowtowed…..I needed a break from the riff-raff….
I have been posting on GH, here and there…..keeping it neutral for harmony’s sake….for now, LOL.

I am exhausted. Today was another big, emotional day on GH- I started to bawl a little bit, but it is hard for me to truly engage or suspend disbelief-because once I do, I know something stupid and horrid is right around the corner. Faison-supposedly THE most wanted criminal-had one policeman in his room for less than a minute. Also, when he started to cardiac arrest or whatever-where were the nurses-perhaps all sent away to Paris as well? I am willing to overlook a good deal. But not that. Gees. Come on. Loved Richard Burgi. Sexy. Stupid serial killer story-oh… Read more »

Another post, from the other day, went astray, Shay….hope you received it in your inbox. Ta-ta.

Awwww…you’re the best, Shaybelle….wish I knew you in person…..
I shall post a couple of lines about Faison ( on GH site) tomorrow…..I have a horrid sinus headache….
But, let me tell you, carina, this child ‘O Anna is driving me to distraction…..we shall see…
Do you think the PTB know who it is?….. will they invent someone at the eleventh hour?
Furthermore, su thinks Faison’s corpse is a clone….she’s usually right on the money, Shay!!
Oh, yeah….where is Phyllis? Paging Ms DeMarco-oo-oo…..
Buona notte, Shay….

How was lunch, dear? I would like to talk about something besides GH for a minute. I have discovered the most enchanting show- Superstore on NBC. I must beg you to watch one or two episodes and see how you feel. No new eps while the Olympics are on- but if you can watch the one from last night and the week before. It is like a soap opera inside a Walmart and it is hysterical. Oh-and ALL the characters get a chance in the spotlight. The mean assistant manager now a surrogate for the general manager and manipulating him… Read more »
