No preview for Jack? Really? Summer is coming back only to find her mother and her lover shacked up in her apartment. I hope she kicks them both out for as Shakespeare once wrote,”Summer’s lease hath all to short a date.”

Okay, who’s the wise guy who gave my rather innocuous comment pertaining to Jack a thumb’s down? I bet it was Victor.

I have used the ‘drum’ metaphor twice now. Hmmmm. What do you think it means, Harry?

I can assure you ’twasn’t I, Harry. Honest….on a stack of Bibles!! LOL. Seriously, It wasn’t.
I had to reply here….fakeBilly and fake Phyllis , whose stamina can withstand the vicious outpouring of Mount Kilauea. Reminds me of another couple on GH ….a while back, Harry. How many times a day can the Energizer Bunny beat that drum?
Wow….there must be something ”rudimentarily ” wrong with my husband!!

Summer will bring with her some type of drama but, not sure it will affect Phillis and Billy.
Please, please please Summer do not annoy me this time around / hopefully the writers will do much better for the character than their usual yuck.

The custody battle for Christian.
I saw that coming since day one, finally!
Legally, poor Nick hasn’t a legal prayer.
Nich has not Legally Adopted Christian and having a name on a birth certificate does not give the person parental rights.
(anyone can put a name on a birth certificate but that is not legally binding – parental rights are the law of custody, and that would now be the linked chain to grandpa Victor, not the uncle.
So- it should be a journey of dramas.
( even if Victor has a criminal record he is more than qualified to support and raise Christian.
/ Nick and Sharon have need to be very worried /

00ohh to mention.
Billy (Jason Thompson) Jason is a 100 times better in the role of Billy than he was GH’s Patrick.
Billy is his better character.

In the real world, Victor does not have a legal prayer, to use your own words, SuzieQ. In the soap world? Different story. Judges and attorneys, alike, march to the beat of the soap gods’ drum.
If Adam were alive, then yes, Nick would have a fight on his hands and lose, in Genoa City. Anywhere else, it’s a toss of the dice.
He is the only parent Christian knows. No sane judge would separate a child from its LEGAL father.
There was no need to adopt Christian, su…..as far as he knew the baby was his. And, I bet, he really is. I thought this from the onset. Victor has had a hand in this since forever.
As I said, in the real world, Victor has no leg to stand on, except on a pile of billions of dollars. If he wins? It will be by buying his way into Christian’s life.
Victor has the justice system in his back pocket. He is old….not qualified….and, Nikki would never go against her own son.
I actually askd my parents, LOL…. my dad said that perhaps NY law is different from the rest of the country? He was being sarcastic, su—-his best quality; much like Harry’s. KIDDING!!!!!! I promise, Harry. LOL.

Hi Celia 🙂
you said-
”He is the only parent Christian knows. No sane judge would separate a child from its LEGAL father.”

Yes, a judge would separate them.
Nick is Not Christians legal father, not by law.

and you said-
”There was no need to adopt Christian, su…..as far as he knew the baby was his.”

Nick, after finding out, he should have ‘attempted’ to adopt Christian and even that would involve Victor as the child’s Legal grandfather.
anyway– Christian has not been adopted by anyone and he’s up for grabs ..

Then again, the writers don’t often pay attention to legalities LOL they will go whichever way creates the drama.

Yes, su….by law, Nick IS Christians father. The only way Victor can get custody is with his money. ….or if Nick is unfit or Sharon.
Who is more unfit? Nick, Victor, Sharon or Nikki? Take your pick.
The only people with full legal pull would be Adam or Sage.
It makes no difference that Nick could have started the adoption process—
I, personally konw a certain criminal lawyer—another is a divorce/guardian ad litem attorney. She litigates such scenarios daily. NY law.
….perhaps it does vary in other states.
But, as you say, the soapworld does have its own laws, legal or otherwise.
Later, SuzieQ…

Oh, mon Dieu…..will Victor never cease?? Desist?? He has one foot in the grave. Unless he knows Adam is alive, does he ever stop to think of tomorrow? Who will Christian call Daddy? He, himself,witll be six feet under—ot in his case, in a secluded, de-embellished with gorgons, crypt
NB. When will Billy and everyone else realize that Kyle is sabotaging the ‘new’ Abbott corporate establishment?
Hmmmm….link between Mariah and Kyle? Blood-wise? Do they share the same father?…..Jack is not his dad? Quelle surprise!
Is Ian Ward a link?

Celia– This has nothing to do with Victor/Nicholas.. rather, a thought occurred to me today regarding JACK. While many have surmised that Jack’s true father will be the man who also fathered Victor, I disagree completely. Remember how Dina said her lover was dashing and handsome? And she couldn’t remember his name? If the writers had any strong of genius (and since they are rewriting history), Jack’s father would be Phillip Chancellor. Let me know what your grandmother thinks of that scenario. Jack gets the Chancellor inheritance and mansion and industries…. and Devon gets placed back where he belongs (anywhere but the billionaire’s club.)

Hi, Ron,
Here you are!!!! Great to hear from you, my friend. Did your son settle on a College, yet?
I read your comment last night……. it was too late to call my grandmother. But, I did this morning, as soon as my son left for school. LOL.
She was, actually, the one to suggest to me that Jack could be Victor’s son. I can’t remember who suggested he and Victor could ,also, be brothers. However, I did agree, that the idea had merit……a possibility.
As far as Phillip Chancelor II, Fiona ( Gran, LOL), loves your scenario. The only thing is, Dina was first seen in GC about ten years after the show premiered……the Chancelors were there from its inception. My grandmother has been watching since day one…..she had just given birth to my uncle, LOL……sharp mind!!
I could hear her mulling and thinking over the phone, Ron……long pause, HaHa.
She said that, after hearing your scenario, she may have over-thought the situation where Victor is concerned, as he did not make an appearance until the early eighties, as well.
Unless (said she), all of it took place behind the scenes….that is, the Abbotts and the Newmans had always been there; just not introduced.
It’s a soap…..anything is possible. Nonethelss, Ron, I, personally, loooove your scenario; just to get the almighty Devon ( I always felt Mac would be the heiress) descend back to earth.
And, frankly, the same could apply to Neil. He has been riding so high; not the Neil I know….anyone could screw up in life—-he is the perfect example.
So, for Neil to be so arrogantly condescending to Hilary makes me sick. Of course, I’m partial to her….l worship her…..I appreciate her mind, her little impish behavior, her style, her look and looks…….just as I used to adore Lily. What has happened to her? She’s married to a worm!!!!!!! And, Neil is her father in name only. So, where is the humility??
I think that if your scenario ( which both Gran and I find illuminating) pans out, the above will all eat crow. How ‘loveRly’ would that be? The Hamilton-Winters “Chapter” can be torn out of that fairytale book in a nano-second.
I want to add that, Gran did say that Katherine and John A used to be really close friends. How close??????……well, she had a light bulb go off in her head…..she had suggested to me that Jack could be Katherine’s and John’s, but gave him away to Dina and John to rear due to her ‘foggy’ living ( alcohol). Dina and she were also close, so…..but, that idea went down the tubes after Jack’s DNA test, proving John wasn’t his father.
I hope your scenario takes root and lives, Ron….( wonder if the writers read these comments. …. Mr. Fairman should know, LOL).
Stay well, Ron.

Uh-oh….shall I eat crow about sabotaging? I still don’t trust Kyle—-shifty and slimy.

This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, the race is on! Can Lulu (Alexa Havins) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) get to Rocco (Finn Carr) and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) in time to ensure their safety from Cullum (Andrew Hawkes)? Can Carly (Laura Wright) with the help of her brother, Lucas (Van Hansis) rescue Josslyn (Eden McCoy) from captivity at Wyndemere? These questions may be answered, plus the return of the one and only Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) are on tap!

In the just released General Hospital spoilers video for the week of June 22-26, Lulu tells her mother, Laura (Genie Francis), “Dante and I have to get to Rocco before Cullum!” Meanwhile, Rocco (Finn Carr) looks angered and emotional as Britt walks through their cabin hideout. Does Rocco know his parents are on the way to find them, or has Cullum already tracked them down to the British Virgin Islands?

Back in Port Charles, Carly is informing Lucas that his niece, “is a WSB agent.” She knows Josslyn (Eden McCoy) is being held against her will at Wyndemere, and she has to find a way to get her out. Lucas agrees with Carly’s plan of, “We go in and we don’t leave without Josslyn!” Elsewhere, Josslyn is looking worried for her future as she is stuck in captivity thanks to Cassius, Cullum and Sidwell!

Y&R Preview: Matt Clark Asks Phyllis on a Date, Would You Be Down for the Pairing? Roger Howarth & Michelle Previously in GH’s Franco/Nina Romance

Published

By

The Young and the Restless seems to be toying with a potential romance between amnesiac Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) and Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford).  Now, on all-new episodes of the top-rated soap opera, the official Y&R Preview for the week of June 22-26, shows a moment where Matt attempts to ask Phyllis out on a date!

The two are sitting at the GCAC having drinks. Suddenly, Matt says. “Once upon a time, there was a man who had no memory. And he met a woman. And then he asks her out on a date.” Phyllis looks at first confused, but then inquisitive? Would Phyllis even dare go out with Matt given what he has done to the former love of her life and father to her daughter, Summer, the one and only Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow)?

If Y&R head writer, Josh Griffith does plan to go there, does Phyllis somehow fall in love with this guy, because she did see him come to the rescue of Nick when he OD’d? But, would Phyllis date Sharon’s (Sharon Case) rapist?

GENERAL HOSPITAL’S FRANCO AND NINA

This isn’t the first time that Daytime Emmy winners, Roger Howarth and Michelle Stafford have appeared on a soap as a romantic pairing? Look no further than then January of 2016  when both appeared on ABC’s General Hospital, when after months of dancing around their sexual tension, Franco Baldwin and Nina Reeves had sex.  The two characters had quite the unstable past which drew them together.

After the sex scene aired on GH, and the series moved the relationship between the duo (known on social media as #nico) forward, Michelle Stafford spoke to Michael Fairman TV where she shared on working with Howarth.

At that time, Stafford expressed, “What woman doesn’t want to see Roger Howarth on-screen?  He’s super sexy, and that is just that! (Laughs) With Roger, I am going to get a really great actor to work with, who likes to play, and really can act. I appreciate that about him. I am just really interested to see what the writers are ultimately going to do with these two characters.”

When addressing, why it took so long for Franco and Nina to hit the sheets, Stafford acknowledged, “You have to address it, because the audience is going to go, ‘Why are these two hot characters not ‘doing’ it’ These are two adults. It doesn’t make sense.  They are so in love, and they are not consummating anything.  So, when they made Nina so insecure about it, and being able to communicate to Franco how she felt, I thought, ‘OK, this works.’  She was scared, and that’s true. We are all scared when we sleep with someone we love for the first time.  There is not one person who does not feel that way.  I loved that about her.  The woman in the audience really responded to that. They loved that there was a character who was afraid to hop in bed.  It was refreshing to them, and that was the consensus.”

Y&R’s MATT AND PHYLLIS STAND A GHOST OF A CHANCE AT ROMANCE?

Take a look at the Y&R video preview for next week below.

Then weigh-in; do you want Matt and Phyllis to date and begin some semblance of a romantic relationship? Did you enjoy Roger Howarth and Michelle Stafford when they were paired as Franco and Nina on General Hospital? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section.

GENERAL HOSPITAL Promo: Rocco’s in a Panic as Britt’s Health Takes a Turn, Chase is Called to the Carpet

Published

This week on General Hospital, who’s a fool, who’s a savior and who will avoid capture? That’s the questions that the latest video promo from the ABC daytime drama series offers up for episodes airing June 15-19.

First, after being taken to the PCPD, Tracy is fuming mad that Chase (Josh Swickard) once again believes in his ex-wife Willow’s (Katelyn MacMullen) word. This time, Willow claimed she was pushed into the water at the Quartermaine boathouse by Tracy (Jane Elliot). Now, racy tells Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) and Justine (Nazneen Contractor), “Willow Cain threw herself into the lake and this fool fell for it.” We already know, Justine has been side-eyeing Chase of how he repeatedly has taken the law into his own hands concerning his ex-wife. Will Chase EVER get a grip and realize Willow is a manipulative woman capable of heinous crimes?

Next, Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) comes loaded for bear to Carly’s (Laura Wright) along with two men from the WSB. He tells her that.“We have reason to believe that Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) is on the premises.” Charlotte (Bluesy Burke) is also there at the time and the two could not look more nervous or suspicious if they tried. Is Valentin already searching Wyndemere for Josslyn (Eden McCoy) at the time of Cullum’s unexpected arrival at Carly’s, or is he still hiding in her attic? Stay tuned.

Then, in the heart-stopping moment, its the first we have seen of Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) and Rocco (Finn Carr) since thy went on the run. However, Rocco enters their hideaway and cries, “No! No! No! No!” He sees an unconscious Britt lying on the floor, and fears the worse. We already know she does not have the medication she needs to prevent her Huntington’s disease symptoms from progressing. In a panic, he makes a desperate phone call. But to who? Rocco says, “I need your help!

Take a look at the this week’s General Hospital spoilers promo entitled “Reasonable Doubt” below and in case you missed it the official spoilers for the week here.

Now, let us know, who do you think Rocco calls in a panic when Britt looks to be out cold? Do you think Chase will reveal that this entire time he has been undercover playing Willow to trap her, or do you still believe he is that big a doofus? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
