Chatter gossip news….the Chancellor mansion set will be back and the scene involves Tessa. Also, Beyond the Gates Friday preview shows the cast sitting and discussing their characters. I love this idea and I wish Y@R would do it as well.
surprising
Had a quick laugh today, when Nick all grimacing in obvious pain and his one feeble crutch said give me Matt Clark, I the only one who can handle him. Obviously, that is not true. His last attempt ended up in a hospitalization. Although as others have said, Joshua Morrow is acting to the max.
RIGHT!! Nick will be the reason that Matt/Mitch escapes again. Sienna is going to let him out of the trunk.
Np snark from me on Nick, but he is so stupid here. Go back to the hospital & kick drugs! In this particular situation he is not to be the hero. With AI, there is nothing he can specifically do. Victor has “taken care of” Matt Clark (whatever that means) so the work is done. Hobbling around on the crutches, saying, “I need to be here for my family” is kind of dopey. Adam will handle things and you will be apprised from your hospital bed. Keep running around trying to be of service to the folks may ultimately lead… Read more »
Yeah… suddenly appears that Nick will be hooked on something. And I’m soooo into seeing the actor’s portrayal! (Again, you go, Josh Morrow!) That said, addiction stories are not my soapy fave… not a fan of the histrionic melodrama that generally ensues (as if it were real-life, lol), nor of viewers’ pile-on critiques (again… as if it were real-life, lol…) Soaps are STRICTLY entertainment for me; I don’t look to their stories for education, support, or advocacy for anything. Sorry not sorry that I unwind, get a good laugh or cry, drool over bods, fashions, and sets, and most of… Read more »
Hes doing amazing. Never seen nick more angry then that scene with phyllis
YES, SueW! Drug addiction / hooked on anything ‘tour de force’ stores involving previously functioning characters are not my soap faves either! Dramatic, but boring, at least to me. Get over it! HA! Josh would do a fantastic job with it but very ho-hum to me – What else you goy?
Oooooh, GO Josh Morrow! (I mean Nick, lol.) But WOW, as I mentioned earlier, the actor is BRINGING IT like viewers haven’t always had the opportunity to see in the way Nick has always been written: loveable and generally affable… albeit hot-headed and dum-dum, lol, who knew Nick had this fury in him????
I have been team Billy and Sally all along and I truly felt they were a good balance for each other. However, Sally has gone from holding Billy accountable for his actions to trying to control him by nagging or guilt trips. Granted, Billy should have left a note saying that he was having coffee with Cane instead of the going for a run lie but, she is not helping by jumping to conclusions or being an arm chair psychiatrist about his relationship with Jill. I’m thinking this is the beginning of the end for them and it makes me… Read more »
Idk, I think Sally has long gone ‘over and beyond’ in granting Wild-Child-Billy any grace. (Lol, wasn’t Sally a BnB ‘Wild Child?’) Move on, Sally… it’s been fun (and I actually DI adore Billy!) but you two are stuck in different ballparks. He revels in wallowing in the same ol’ mud, while your SHOULD BE still vibrant self SHOULD BE still open to shiny new toys that might actually prove worthy…
Soooooo, the same conundrum may be looming for Sally… if not Billy, then who? I don’t want her back w/Adam: that tattered and battered ship has sailed. (Plus, viewers would lose their minds analyzing the real-life actors’ ex-relationship and how it’d translate on-screen, lol.) Sally needs joy and laughter (puh-leez, she’s just kind of a wasted- talent dragggg), so I’m hoping for a brand new love for Sally – and one NOT from the pool of always recycling GC hunks ..
Holden is a possibility.
I agree that Adam should stay in her rear view mirror. Victoria is right that Holden is a possibility. Maybe the hot detective will give her an interview after he solves the missing persons report for Matt Clark.
The big yawn. Please no more scenes.
Jack has again failed the test as Nick drops a tiny magnet on his moral compass. Sadly, Jack’s epitaph may well be “Hamartia”—in Greek “a missing of the mark”, making his fall inevitable. And for this fall, what did he get? A promise Nick can’t keep, even if he wants to. Diogenes was known to carry a lit lamp through the streets of Athens in broad daylight. When people asked what he was doing, he’d reply: “I am looking for a decent man.” In Genoa City, the light might just fall on Noah Newman. Genoa City may think it is… Read more »
I have no knowledge about the topics in your fun posts – but I enjoy reading them.
Nick is sitting in the Abbot living room admitting that he is planning on murdering Matt to Jack and Kyle. They aren’t even surprised.
Serious note for once. January 16, 2026. There’s a first time for everything. Jack mentioning only ibuprofen in the house is good harm reduction, but true recovery means building proper internal tools—meetings, therapy, coping skills—for when triggers hit hard. Without that active work, it’s just white-knuckling until the next crisis. Sally’s misidentifying Billy’s “tell” as an obsession with Chancellor. But look at his face; it’s actually the “eye of the gambler.” Months ago, Victoria saw that same look and called him out on it. As he pursues that high, nothing else matters: not his relationships, his future, or his business.… Read more »
They seem to be foreshadowing Nick getting hooked on prescription drugs. Maybe one of their teachable moment storylines. I wonder if somehow Matt Clark will be stealthily making them available.
It was a little odd how Victor and Nicky were MIA.
Summer… Get home now! Summer will go in direct battle against Phylis to save Newman. She may give little princess Claire a battle for both Holden and Kyle too.
I don’t recall Nick ever being so upset with Phyllis. He has justifiably and completely turned on her.
The Abbots still have Matt “on ice”. Is he still zipped tied? Is he in the pool house? A cell somewhere? Who is taking care of him, feeding him and getting him to the restroom? The Abbots have kidnapped and illegally detained him. They too are guilty of serious crimes. Matt’s rights have been violated.
Did it look a bit like Audra was wearing a Claire-style IHop-uniform today? Lol, maybe I missed the bottom, but… button up that shirt a bit and.. “Pancakes, anyone?”
Summer is on everyone’s lips these days… I hope that means the character is soon returning?! Wishing probably in vain for A. Lanier’s return, but will (ugh) stay open to a re-cast if I must… after all, that’s how I felt when H.King left the role… but then TOTALLY bought into A.Lanier’s Summer2.0!
J.Morrow was terrific today as an in both physical and emotional pain, nearly unhinged, and feeling very betrayed Nick. Sometimes Nick’s tough-guy persona borders on laughable, but he was on very believable fire today. Wow.
I agree, he did great!
Phyllis’ unrelenting and desperate? pathetic? bitter? (pick any spiraling adjective, lol) need for validation consistently fuels her revolving self-sabotage. As obnoxious as her present gloating is, I gotta root for her to at least glory in her misguided moment while she can – because her eventual falls are each more brutally painful than the last. Oh, Phyllis… you are one terrific soap character! Go, Red! To whatever soapy heck it always leads…!
Phyllis should heed Nick’s words. He may no longer be in love w/her, but he is LAP-DOG loyal to those he cares about – and he has ALWAYS cared deeply for her. But Phyllis’ ingrained insecurity eventually denies and/or pushes such concern away from both him and everyone else. She just can’t fully recognize and accept her ‘village’ … sadly, she burns every re-built one to the ground again and again…
