Dear Gawd in Heaven. I thought Y&R had finally stopped playing that old record about Daniel being responsible for Cassie's death.

Let's review:

!) Being underage, Cassie wasn't even supposed to be at JT's keg party, but had to go, because she knew her "crush" Daniel was going to be there. She put on makeup and wore these ridiculous disco boots to try to make herself look older. Plus, she was already grounded due to bad behavior, and to go out, she lied and begged her parents to let her out one night to go to the movies with her friends.

2) Because Daniel had been drinking, he knew he shouldn't drive, so he did the RESPONSIBLE thing and crawled into the backseat of his car to sleep it off.

3) Unbeknownst to Daniel, stupid Cassie decided she could drive her crush home, so without his permission, she took his keys and got behind the wheel of his car.

4) Being only 14, Cassie had no driver's license, plus she was wearing those silly boots - not good for driving, ever.

5) Cassie ran them off the road and crashed the car; she could have killed the sleeping Daniel, who wasn't even strapped in with a seat belt. It was believed Cassie herself hadn't been wearing a seat belt (why she was thrown from the car).

6) Cassie was in the hospital and post-surgery was considered stable .. that is UNTIL she decided to take off on her own, walking the dirty streets of Genoa City.

7) It was that action that led to Cassie's infection worsening and turning into SEPSIS, so she basically KILLED HERSELF.

R22 JT would have been 21 that year (2005), since Coleen helped him celebrate his 19th birthday in 2003. And I believe Daniel had just turned 18. (He was said to be that age not that long after when he and 17-year old Lily ran off to Vegas to get married with her forged consent form "signed" by her bio-father Malcolm). And yes, one of the charges against him when Cassie was still alive was underage drinking while the more serious charge of DUI was erroneous.

Nikki actually has more corporate experience than DuhVon, Lily, and Billy.

DuhVon inherited his $2.7 billion. Before that he was a former street kid turned wannabe recording artist-producer. He went to college, but his degree was in music.

Lily and Billy are both nepo babies. Lily's path to the corporate world is much like Nikki's. She started out as some kind of model, then got into cosmetics. And just as Nikki bought her way into Jabot some 25 years ago by paying off the company's loans, Lily was handed a job by her father/brother to work at Hamilton-WInters. Can't recall? Was that before or after she was in prison?

And we all know Billy's story. If he weren't an Abbott, then Fuck Up Billy would be the cellphone counter clerk at Walmart. After attending one semester at GCU, he dropped out.

Also, Lucas was still part of the never-ending L-Quad. I think when that scene in the clip aired he was in something of a triangle with with Jonas NoLastName and "Pris" (blonde Leslie's alter ego).

No thank you. I really don't want to see a 70-year-old woman talk about her childhood sexual abuse, especially one who hasn't been around for 25-years. Plus, the other principals involved (father and mother) are both dead, and Casey and Nikki covered all that back in 1979. Finally, I sense that "Casey" is one of those characters that if she's not played by the original, then viewers would be immediately turned off. Others like that have been Brock, Lorie, and now someone like Paul. Leighton kinda fucked herself with the bad work, because if it weren't for that, I'm sure her buddy Mel would have lobbied to have her show up for special occasions or health crises.

[quote] I want dad bod Daniel and drunk Sharon to start fucking, setting the whole town ablaze with scornful judgement.

I have this vague memory that some HW teased something like that happening quite some time ago. I'd have to think exactly when that was. (Of course Case, still looked normal back then, and it was very believable that Daniel might be attracted to a sexy MILF.)

R110 I was sorta half joking, especially re Zimmer, but you're probably right.

Still, I think Casey was in the background enough that they could do some sort of recast, and even if it was something like having Nikki help Casey if Casey were dying, it would be a nice way to revisit that and add shading to Nikki's character. The Jordan story was OK - helped by Zenk's fearless, nutty performance - but it was a retcon.

I suppose they could recast Brock too but at this point with Kay dead (and Brock's portrayer too) it's sort of pointless. I still wish they'd bring in Brooks Prentiss and make him a new focus of the show.

Snapper and Casey turned into a big tease. I would not call them any kind of "supercouple." The whole time they worked together, Snapper was married to Chris. And while those two had a few ups and downs, neither of them ever cheated on the other during their marriage. In that regard, they became something of a soap opera anomaly, especially since they were in their ninth year marriage when they moved to England. And frigid Casey only slept with one guy during the years she was on (Lucas). Because of what Nick did to Casey, she was portrayed as the total opposite of promiscuous Nikki.

She and Billy were drowning their sorrows together at the bar, which led to sex up in her room. I think it was a pretty brief affair, and only happened two or three times over the course of a month or so, but enough to later put Billy in the frame for the subsequent "Who's the Daddy?" with Jack, Nick, and Billy being the trio of candidates.

Someone please refresh my memory.

At some point a decade or more ago, Sharon was in Hawaii and nearly fell into a volcano as it was erupting. What was that all about? Seems like she was involved with Adam (Michael Muhney) at that point. .

by Anonymousreply 141July 31, 2024 8:12 PM

R140 Yes, it was MAB. Billy's larger story at the time was that he'd just learned that he, not Cane, was Cordelia's father, and he was having issues committing to baby mama, Chloe.

Billy was still the bad boy and didn't see himself settling down, thus his random hook-up with Sharon (who was still his brother, Jack's wife) played into the idea that he was still this wild playboy. (Plus, Sharon returned to Jack not long after this fling, so they would eventually play the "slept with brother's wife" angle.)

Sharon's pairing with Adam (Muhney) came later toward the end of 2009, after the fall out from the "Who's the Daddy?" (Nick was Faith's father) and after her divorce from Jack.

During Sharon and Billy's short fling, Adam (still played by Engen) was in prison and devising his plan to fake going blind as a way to secure release and serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest at The Ranch.

Clementine Ford didn't join the show till Spring 2009, which was after Billy and Sharon's fling. Mac came home just as Billy was marrying Chloe at The Mausoleum.

Sharon was trying to prove Adam's innocence and tracked Skye down to some rural village on one of the islands. Sharon ran after Skye to take a photo of her to prove that she was still alive and somehow Skye slipped and fell onto the first ledge of volcano. Sharon tried to save her but couldn't and Skye fell deeper into the hole, never to be seen again. I think this was some old, inactive volcano.

Something happened on the right side of her face up near her eye, and she had to wear her hair a certain way to cover it.

I'm sure with there being so many presentations of the illness, people who are bipolar will behave differently, but I think Case is doing a good job showing the changes in behavior when people go off their meds.

What I'm seeing from her, is almost exactly like a friend of mine who is bipolar. There have been several times when he's had his meds changed by doctors and/or he's "neglected" to take them, and I've been able to tell very quickly that something's up with him. It starts off with subtle things. Like being distracted, becoming very unreliable, and talking out loud with no filter. I've never asked him about Hallucinations, but I've read that's not uncommon. I'm thinking that the longer Sharon is off her meds, we might eventually see her cycle through periods of more intense depression and mania.

Around this same time, we also had Wackadoo Nancy Becker getting carted off to the nuthouse, because of what her husband, Ron, was doing to her. That story came with Peggy Brooks, now psychologically-traumatized because Ron had raped her.

R167 Originally, Adam came up with a plan to get himself out of prison by faking that he was coming down with his mother's genetic-based retinitis pigmentosa causing blindness. .. To do this, he began injecting botox in his eyes to fool doctors. .. But what happened is that during this ruse, the fickle finger of fate intervened, and Adam actually started to show real symptoms of the disease. Some time later when he was legally blind, he underwent a state-of-the-art operation to restore his vision that was being done by some whiz-bang doctor in a clinical trial. As I recall, it had something to do with implanting some miniature devices in his eyes??? ( For all intents and purposes, such an operation doesn't exist in real life and there is still no cure for retinitis pigmentosa.)

As for DuVOn his hearing was restored rather similarly. Bio-Father Fucker used his wealth to find an out-of-state doctor who was restoring hearing with some kind of miracle surgery. The problem with that one is that we'd already seen DuhVon have cochlear implant surgery. And it's my understanding that once someone has that done, the cochlear is so modified that no future surgery to restore hearing will be possible. You have to have the natural cochlear. That's why some deaf people opt to only have it done to one ear, so that they'll always have one ear available to take advantage of any future advances in the field. .. Like with Adam, DuhVon's surgery sounded like science fiction as well.

R173 Heather never walked in on Adam and Rafe. That was Nikki who spied the two men kissing as she peeked through the doorway to Adam's bedroom at The Ranch. Nikki silently stepped away and later at the hospital got a good chortle over blabbing the news to Victoria that Adam was gay. None of the Newmans were homophobic in their reaction. Vicki was surprised but after some snickering, almost felt sorry for Adam, thinking that he was closeted because of the pressure and notoriety of being Victor Newman's son. A week or two later, Nikki told Nick. He was pretty nonchalant about it and was more concerned about Adam's deception, thinking that if he's lying about his sexuality, then there are other things he's being dishonest about. .. And Victor Newman loves his gay son.

Nikki eventually wrote Paul a note about Adam's affair with Rafe - thinking he should tell Heather about her boyfriend's deception. (Nikki did this when she skipped out on her wedding to Paul.) This led to Paul telling Heather, which then led to Heather's big blowup scene with Adam out at The Ranch. I remember laughing during this scene, because Vail Bloom sounded like a very nasal honking goose as she shouted her lines. We now know (from her) that she had a bad coke problem back then that was affecting her work and led to her abrupt departure from the show and the quick recast with Eden Riegel.

R190 Are you talking about the infamous Cassandra Rawlins played by the beautiful blonde, Nina Arvesen?

Cassandra wasn't murdered. The murder charge Paul was up to his eyeballs in was for Cassandra's old, sick husband, George Rawlins, who actually decided to kill himself and frame Paul for his murder. George did this after he found out Paul and Cassandra were having an affair. The audience knew all along what George had done, so there was no big mystery there. The hook was whether or not Paul would be able clear his name. As I recall, the trial was starting, but Paul, faked his own death (with his father and Victor's help) and went undercover to investigate. They did a big location shoot in Bermuda and this is when Paul discovered that Cassandra was also involved with another man named Adrian Hunter (Mark Derwin).

This was very similar to the story about 10 years earlier when dying Vanessa Prentiss killed herself and in the process framed Lorie Brooks for her murder. There was a trial for that one, though, hinging on the testimony of young Brooks Prentiss having seen Grandma at the typewriter.

Billy goes from agreeing to bow out of Abbott-Chancellor to kicking Lily to the curb. .. How does that work? .. Jill's not dead yet.

Dianejenkins asks Aunt Jack if he's willing to get his petticoats dirty to fight Victor and save JaBottom? .. Seriously, at this point, anything Jack v. Victor is total snooze.

Sally's question to Adam would be far more interesting, if she were asking him, "Yes, or No? Did you have a Grindr hookup while you were in Baltimore?"

After Jeanne took off as a drunk, suddenly Ruth Warrick's Phoebe became one on AMC; Y&R copied the Phil/Tara marrying themselves with Brock/Jill doing the same. Leslie had a mental breakdown on Y&R, and months later so did Erica(though that was a good way to write the pregnant Lucci off).

Okay, do they want us to hope that The Old Goat succeeds in causing Billy Boy to fail? They're writing Billy as such a pathetic looser now, that there's no rooting for him. .. And I'm totally bored with Thompson's rendition of the character. At least when Miller's Fuck-Up Billy acted stupidly or brazenly, there was still some charm and humor in the portrayal. .. And did I miss it? There's been no Skyping Jill to comment on Billy getting rid of Lily -- the CEO whom Jill hired? .. Oh right, Lily told DuhVon that she didn't want to "bother Jill" with this. WTF?

I wonder what Chance will do if he quits Chancellor? .. I think Only Fans could be an viable option.

On another note, Adam looks so "summery" NOT while playing in the park. Wardrobe puts him in ALL BLACK for a scene like this? Do they have only one color palette for Grossman? For crying out loud, the guy used to be a model! Would it have killed them to put him in some white short-shorts? Miss Connor could have joked, "Dad's having his own Labor Day White Party."

From what I know, LaBergman got a pretty hefty divorce settlement when she and Mr. Recht called it quits after 23 years. He's been a commercial and multi-housing property developer-constructor in Southern California for close to four decades now, so given the market during this time, their marital assets were probably significant. In her court case against Lloyds for the house in Malibu that burned down, it was said that she'd insured the place for $9 million, and her claim was that they were low-balling the rebuilding costs and not fulfilling the policy. She's since bought (two) large horse ranch type properties in Tennessee. Chrissy and his husband have also made out well flipping real estate. They sold a house in the foothills of Sherman Oaks for a profit and downsized to the condo in Beverly Hills. When the condo sells, the profit off that one will be another $300K. They've also bought, renovated, then sold places in New Orleans for profit. Looks like the house they have there now is going to be their forever home.

Both Tracey and Chrissy might like the camaraderie of being part of the show, but it doesn't appear that either one of them really need this job.

I didn't think Carrigan was that bad. .. However, I would agree that the last arc where they turned "Stitch" into Mariah's kidnapper was horrific.

One thing I remember is that when JFP created the new role of "Dylan McAvoy" specifically to hire FOJ Steve Burton, she cast Carrigan as his recurring military buddy and talk-to, "Stitch" Many Y&R viewers (myself included) weren't familiar with Burton and had never seen him on General Hospital, so both he and Carrigan were brand new to them. The prevailing sentiment was that Carrigan was the better and more interesting actor, and they would have preferred to see more of him than Burton.

Sean Carrigan was great in his first stint. He was very captivating. Much more interesting character than Burton's Dylan McAvoy.

Thirty years of Sharon Case.

There's an action-adventure stunt coming up.

[quote] In the lead up to her anniversary, The Young and the Restless has revisited some of Cases’ favorite storylines, but here, the actress is referencing an action-adventure story that kicks off the week of September 23. “When Sharon was younger, I did a lot of stunts,” she reminds. “It was hard work as a young person, but I have wanted to do more action over the years – and that’s happening now. Be careful what you ask for!”

[quote] This beauty boasts a regular regimen of going to the gym a few times a week to take yoga classes, work the machine circuits, and sweat it out the elliptical – but that didn’t quite prepare her for shooting an action storyline at 53! “It’s exhausting, physical work,” says Case, whose only workout these days is onset. “It’s harder than going to those emotional, dark places. Even if you are physically fit, there’s different kinds of fitness. My hands are always very sore, because I don’t normally do… what I can’t tell you I’m doing!”

Just what this show needs .. another character on Social Security!

My only guess would be Any's being brought in to work a case as a private detective. Last we saw, Amy worked for Paul and Nathan at their detective agency. Amy was like the precursor to Lynne Bassett-Hound, only Amy was smarter, savvier, prettier, and definitely a better actress than Lynne. By the time Amy left, she was actually doing some detective work at the agency.

After Amy's love interest, Tyrone Jackson, left town, I believe she soon followed to see if she could make things work with him. (Headed for Los Angeles or San Diego, as I recall??) Tyrone's brother, Jazz Jackson, who was always sweet on Amy was still in charge of security at Newman Towers, but he was subsequently never shown. So by the late 80s both the Jackson Bros and Lewis Clan (Amy, Frank, and Loretta) were gone. .. On the GCPD front we got the memorable Detective Salena Wiley (Fay Huaser) who seemed like a replacement for Amy. Eventually, we got the Barber Sisters, who both became involved with Nathan; then Neil Winters was added, followed later by Malcum.

R308 The actor for No. 1 is almost certainly Conrad Dunn (who also went by the stage name George Jenesky).

Dunn played pimp, "Nick Corelli," on Days of our Lives. The prostitute whom Nick controlled was young "Eve Donovan" played by the popular Charlotte Ross. Over time, their relationship started to change and started to turn into a love story. Many female viewers were enthralled with it, but this may have freaked some fundies out. The couple was getting a lot of press in the soap magazines and appeared on the cover of SOD. Then, quite abruptly and for no apparent reason, the actor was let go with the Nick character killed off.

After 48 minutes with Alan Locher, I'd probably excuse myself as well.

I doubt Josh gives a shit if he wins a Daytime Emmy. He's the guy who cared more about signing five-year contracts with the show, because he was smart enough to know this was the gig that was going to allow him to make regular bank, so that he could rake in the bucks flipping real estate. Daytime Emmys don't make you a millionaire.

Peeples would probably rather forget her time at Y&R. .. In one interview, she seemed to indicate that working with KSJ was something of a chore, and she had no use at all for that amateur, Eva Marcille, who was playing :Tyra. .. Then, even when they opted to let Peeples go, Sony fucked up the notification requirements (based on her 26-week cycle), so they had to bring her back and fire her all over again when that cycle was up.

btw, I don't blame Rauch/MAB for deciding to cut Peeples loose. Whatever Latham had in mind with Neil and Karen wasn't working. But I don't really blame Peeples. Viewers love KSJ, but honestly, did he ever really *click* with a love interest on the show other than Rowell? .. I'd say he and his little butt buddy Ryan McNeil may have worked, but that's about it.

That horribly bright spotlight that they had shining on Sharon's FACE when she was on the bridge dumping the corpse in the river was pretty unforgiving. ..

The wardrobe website indicates that it's a James Perse (London) French terry design with each separate retailing for about $300 a piece. .. Seriously? They could have bought an entire French terry tracksuit on sale at Walmart for $42.

Seeing young Josh Morrow when he first met Sharon in the flashbacks, you'd think it was his son who's currently on B&B.

Cassidy Ann Newman. Has there ever been a character who's death has been milked this much? I suppose Phillip Chancellor II comes close, but at least his death formed the basis of the Kay-Jill feud. .. Anyway, when it comes to Cassie, I've had sufficient, and I'm glad that before Heather bit the dust they had her point out that stupid Cassie basically killed herself and could have taken victim Daniel along with her in the process.

If Heather is actually dead and her waterlogged and decomposing corpse is found, I could see Daniel getting a phone call from April telling him that she's arranging to have her daughter cremated with her ashes interred in New York in the Stevens Family plot. That way, there'd be no need to show a funeral in Genoa City, and we'd simply see Daniel and Lucy preparing for the journey and hear that Paul was flying-in from Portugal to join them in NY. Who else in Genoa City would go to Heather's funeral? Phyllis and Summer for Daniel's sake; perhaps L'Bug who's known Heather since she was a child.

Amy texts back, "When we meet, it will all be clear."

I believe Amy was gone before HoLivia and DruSilly showed up, so the only connection Nate might have to Amy would be through his deceased bio-father, Nathan.

After Hot Andy Richards left town with dull Faren, Nathan joined Paul and Amy at the detective agency. Amy was the one who taught the illiterate "Kong" (Nathan's street name) to read. He started to fall in love with Amy, but she stopped him from saying it, because she'd already decided to leave Genoa City. That scene with them was actually featured in one of the "Classic" episodes that Y&R showed during the 2020 production halt due to COVID.

I don't think Linden really needs this gig. He does it because Susan's on the show. He works as a director (with two other projects already in production and pre-production). And the last time he was on (when they killed Cameron off), he said Griffith had been trying to get him back for quite some time, but the scheduling never worked out right due to his other projects. He ended up being able to work it in after something freed up, and he told Y&R that he could give them a couple of weeks. Griffith immediately jumped at the chance and rearranged other storyline to accommodate HIM.

by Anonymousreply 364October 2, 2024 8:46 PM

Ahhh, that explains a lot. Thanks r364.

I always wondered why Ashby's return last year as Cameron was so rushed. Felt like it came out of nowhere. No real buildup to his return. And then a mere three weeks later Cameron was dead. I figured they would at least keep him there for six weeks, if not several months. But no, he was dead and gone.

But if they were trying to accommodate a limited window in his schedule, then it all makes more sense.

It was hilarious when Bell wrote the entire Stevens family out in one fell swoop. April's adopted out, non-identical twin, Barbara Ann Harding, had gotten some kind of inheritance or trust fund and had enough money to support everyone, so even though Barbara barely knew her bio-family, she invited the piss-poor Stevens to come live with her in New York City .. in a deluxe apartment in the sky, no doubt. .. Dorothy, Wayne, April, and toddler Heather just up and left with Barbara. Paul didn't seem to mind much that April was leaving town with his daughter. He'd originally been portrayed as a deadbeat dad after Heather was born and seemed to have been guilt-ed into being a father. Plus, he'd just fucked Barbara, which made April mad.

While in the back of my mind somewhere, having Chance mention his little history with Heather to Daniel was appreciated. I'd kind of forgotten about it since the two characters were being played by John Driscoll's Chance and Eden Reigel's unfortunate Heather when it occurred. As I recall, Reigel's Heather also got to sample Chance's brother, Ronan Malloy. The trio were all in the Law & Order business, so crossed paths that way.

How hot were Chance and Ronan when they had their big fight in the pouring rain? ..

Griffith's full writing history also includes two telenovelas that he did for Sony Pictures. .. One was the Spanish-language telenovela, "Bienvenida Realidad," and another was the Nickelodeon series, "Hollywood Heights" -- the project he did with Jill Fuckup Phelps (from whence came Robert Adamson, Melissa Ordway, and Summer King). I only mention these two because they were both youth-centered. The Spanish-language series was even compared to the UK's popular "Skins" series as well as Spain's hit serial drama "Física o Química."

Funny how we don't see much youth-oriented stories on The Old & the Listless, because Griffith himself has done quite a bit of that type of storytelling in the past.

As for redeeming the character, all Sharon has to do is start taking her bipolar meds again and Cameron will go away. A judge will gvie her probation and some community service. While doing the community service, she'll meet a cute guy and fall in love with him.

For the most part, they also agreed that there are "too many" business storylines.

R394 Yeah, this storyline started out with a change in Sharon's meds. .. They've brought that fact up more than once.

I sometimes wonder if we're eventually going to find out that her meds are some new drug with limited FDA approval, and there have been reported side effects of psychotic behavior.

It could all come down to some Big Pharma company having rushed something to market, the FDA not receiving or ignoring data, and a doctor who's not doing appropriate follow-up and monitoring Sharon per requirements to give her the drug.

I wonder if this is why they included that little scene today of psychologist Alan being introduced to Sharon. He may not be a medical doctor, but perhaps he could eventually play some role in fact-finding.

I figured they might at least reconfigure and repurpose some of those sets to become something new in Genoa City. i.e. The elegant Tucker (Audra) hotel suite with balcony ... Ashley's equally elegant apartment ... Alan's townhome - complete with second story! ... the large Parisian bistro with its old-world charm.

R436 I was surprised that CBS didn't do a prime time special for the 50th in 2023. .. March, the month the anniversary occurred in, can be a dead zone in prime time, since February sweeps has just ended (often with some kind of mid-season hook), and many prime time shows switch to reruns for a few weeks prior to their end season push in April and May. .. But I've read that when CBS used to do those specials they had to negotiate (pay) a separate license fee for them outside their standard contract with Sony; so like everything else it probably comes down to them not seeing any cost-benefit.

Thirty years of the character, but not really 30 years of The Staff. .. They conveniently leave out the part where she said 'adios' to the role in '97 to pursue fantasies of moving to prime time. I was perfectly happy with Sandra Nelson in the role. Then, MS left again in 2013 when she apparently didn't like the notes she was receiving from JFP about her constant three-peating of lines and adding junior high school words like "absolutely, totally, definitely, etc." to everything that came out of her maw. Even viewers who like her were complaining about how "lazy" her acting had gotten.

I know Rikaart's on Days, but they let him appear on Y&R for Tracey Bregman's (Lauren's) anniversary show in 2023, and again during the 2023 holiday episode that featured the Baldwin-Fishers.

I think we should assume Kevin's still in Genoa City since we still see annoying Chloe every now and again in business scenes. .. Of course, maybe this would be a good opportunity to let us know that the couple finally split up. I don't believe they ever actually remarried, so perhaps Chloe could report that Kevin finally met the man of his dreams, "Clark Harding" (Mark's twin brother), and they now live in the Hillcrest area of San Diego.

R511 Aunt Jordan burned "The Father Knows Best" house down. (See link.) That's one of the reasons Katie was pissed off at ClairEve when she met her new sister, because the fire caused her to lose all the personal stuff she had in her room at the house.

Clair is a useless character. That noodle hairdo yesterday makes me wonder if she shares Mel's stylist

Mini spoiler:

Corpse Heather getting in Sharon's head during the Halloween episode is pretty entertaining.

This Connor shit is excruciating, and has gone on too long. I miss the days when Dummer and Fen were torturing the street kid that lived in the dumpster.

Moo-riah looking ready to eat all of her baby's Halloween candy.

Mooriah would just go ahead and eat the baby

Isn't Conner supposed to be 13ish? A little old for Halloween.

That poor kid blaming Dom is one ugly little guy.

Connor and Johnny weren't going trick-or-treating, they were going to a Halloween party. Sounds age-appropriate.

As for Dom, where do they find these kids who can't act? He was as bad as Smurf Harrison with the stupid hair.

Halloween seems like the perfect night for Aunt Jordan to kidnap all the children of Genoa City.

[quote]Halloween seems like the perfect night for Aunt Jordan to kidnap all the children of Genoa City. —Holly Lindsey, never forgetting

Not a very big haul. You've got Harrison, Conner, Johnny, Katie and Lucy. Plus baby Aria.

And of course, there's also invisible Christian, who is often referenced but never seen.

Holly had a much bigger haul. Plus most of Holly's haul was under 13 years old.

I'd save Aunt Jordan's reappearance for ClairEve's big wedding day when she's about to naively enter into a lavender marriage to JaBottom. .. The bitch would sneak into the back of the church and broadcast a video on the ceiling that shows Theo topping Kyle at a party held out in the Hamptons (ca 2018). .. Jordan obtained the sex tape from Harrison's mother, Tara Locke, who's just been released from prison herself.

The Messa stans are going to HATE Thursday's show ...

They spend quite a bit of time on Tessa with Daniel, and there's far more chemistry there than with Mariah.

R522 Thanks for the head’s up. I FF through anything Tessa. Cannot stand her and that nasally lazy delivery.
