Just Say No
Image Credit: Howard Wise/JPI It’s bad enough that Bold & Beautiful basically recreated the Brooke/Oliver “accidental sex” storyline, right down to the use of masks. But when will this show stop using rape — and make no mistake, that’s what Luna did to an inebriated Will — as entertainment?
-
Gone… And Apparently Forgotten!
Image Credit: ABC screenshot Any other fans of General Hospital‘s Dex watch this scene going, “Too soon! Too soon”? Meanwhile, here’s hoping either Joss is on the pill or Vaughan travels with protection, because they were supposed to be faking being newlyweds, so it’s not like they planned for this encounter!
-
Will They or Won’t They?
Image Credit: Howard Wise/JPI Are you as surprised as we are to find yourself kinda sorta hoping that Young & Restless capitalizes on the sizzling chemistry between Cane and Phyllis?
-
Shedunit
Image Credit: Peacock screenshot Were you kinda disappointed to find out that Days of Our Lives‘ Rachel, whom we’d all suspected for months, turned out to be EJ’s shooter?
-
Hurts So Good
Image Credit: CBS screenshot How incedible were Tamara Tunie and Trisha Mann-Grant during that huge confrontation between alter egos Anita and Leslie? The powerhouse performances — all leading to that epic, much-deserved slap — darn well better be remembered come Emmy time next year!

The Female Clark Kent
Image Credit: Howard Wise/JPI, Courtesy of the Everett Collection Is Wonder Woman’s disguise the only one flimsier than the “impenetrable” one Bold & Beautiful’s Luna donned?
-
Tough Talk
Image Credit: ABC screenshot How delightful is it to have a character like ADA Turner on General Hospital who refuses to make excuses for crooks and just says flat-out that the Sonnys and Drews of Port Charles all need to brought to justice? (Of course, we’ll withdraw this praise the second she winds up in Sonny’s bed!)
-
Black Is The New Paisley
Image Credit: CBS Screenshot Is there any surer sign that “Dark Claire” is back than the fact that Young & Restless started dressing her in black pleather?
-
Dumb Question
Image Credit: Peacock screenshot How many of us were like, “Oh yeah, we feel ya, man!” when Days of Our Lives‘ Philip reacted this way to Belle asking, “How’s work?”
-
Kiss And Tell
Image Credit: CBS screenshot Kat was mortified over the idea of telling her mother about her disappointing sex life with Beyond the Gates‘ Tomas… but telling her cousin’s husband in the middle of a police station is less awkward?
-
It Girl
Image Credit: CBS screenshot The minute Bold & Beautiful had newbie Heidi Engerman (Lainey) start talking to Will, weren’t you like, “Yes, please, we’d like more of her — lots more!”? What charisma!
-
She’s Got A Point!
Image Credit: ABC screenshot As painful as General Hospital‘s judge-y Carly makes it to agree with her, didn’t you have to admit that she was right to say that Nina could have saved Willow from a world of hurt by copping to her affair with Drew?
-
All Aboard!
Image Credit: Howard Wise/JPI We get Young & Restless wanting to get the most bang out of their buck by deciding Cane has trains in locations around the world, including Genoa City. (Hey, it’s a cool set!) But as Deena French Duke asked on Facebook, “Where do you park a train?” Which leads to our next question…
-
Ah-Maze-Ing
Image Credit: © Howard Wise/jpistudios.com Why not let Young & Restless‘ Cane buy Chancellor Park, too, so he can bring his estate’s maze over from France and turn its central buffet into the newest Genoa City hot spot?
-
His BFF
Image Credit: Peacock screenshot How sweet is it that the picture Days of Our Lives‘ Steve keeps on his desk is of him and John?
-
Money For Nothing
Image Credit: CBS Anybody else kinda hoping that Leslie’s windfall goes up in smoke? Sorry, but we like that Beyond the Gates features not only haves, but have nots!
-
Singing For His Supper
Image Credit: CBS screenshot Was anyone else bummed that Bold & Beautiful didn’t forego the DJ at Il Giardino to have a certain waiter — played by Lil Nas X — perform at Will’s party instead?
-
Wherefore Art Thou, Father?
Image Credit: CBS screenshot We know he’s General Hospital‘s most absentee father, and portrayer Jack Wagner is currently appearing as Bold & Beautiful‘s Nick, but shouldn’t Frisco be in town given Maxie’s health crisis?
-
Waste Not, Want Not
Image Credit: Howard Wise/JPI Are you, like Redditor Cynvisible, bothered by “the number of times people on Young & Restless just walk away from full glasses of alcohol in restaurants?” Adds the author, clearly our new best friend, “It’s so disrespecful to the liquor!”
-
Gold Standard
Image Credit: Peacock screenshot (8) After Stacy Haiduk’s go-for-broke performance as Days of Our Lives‘ Kristen came to grips with the fact that Rachel had shot EJ, can we finally give her the Emmy she should have won for playing Young & Restless‘ Patty and Emily?
-
There’s An App For That
Image Credit: CBS screenshot After Nicole’s divorce party, the hostess used her phone to summon a car for her and Vanessa. Meanwhile, the blonde was using an app on her phone to track Doug. How is it that no other soap weaves everyday tech into the lives of characters as smoothy as Beyond the Gates?
-
Nothin’ To See Here
Image Credit: CBS screenshot How on earth did Bold & Beautiful take the “distracted boyfriend” meme a step further to “busted boyfriend” with a single perfect shot?
-
Maybe Go Ahead And Shoot the Messenger?
Image Credit: ABC screenshot How much must it have killed General Hospital‘s Lulu to have to thank Obrecht for helping her tell James and Georgie about Maxie?
-
Let’s Not and Say We Did
Image Credit: CBS screenshot Isn’t the party-goer to the left of Bold & Beautiful‘s Zende wearing exactly the “Seriously?!?” expression you’d expect a young person to make when Grandpa interrupts a rager to say, “Hey, let’s all wear masks for no reason”?
-
Face Facts
Image Credit: Peacock screenshot Might we suggest that Days of Our Lives‘ Stephanie work on her poker face? (She’s just lucky Alex wasn’t looking at her when discussing “Daniel Lucas”.)
-
Steal This Look
Image Credit: Howard Wise/JPI Where did Bold & Beautiful‘s Luna get the Il Giardino uniform? Why not show us her stealing Sheila’s? And if Sheila was so determined to help Luna stay out of trouble, why’d she feed the girl’s obsession with all things Will by telling her about the party?
-
The Wild West
Image Credit: ABC screenshot What the heck was with General Hospital‘s Molly fantasizing about characters who had the same name as residents of One Life to Live‘s Llanview? Given that the two shows exist within the same universe, what we assume was an attempt to “wink” at in-the-know viewers wound up being more confusing than anything else.

Cheers!
Image Credit: Howard Wise/JPI “How many times do I need to hear about Vespers?” asked Redditor Est_ws. “It’s like it’s a brand and they’ve paid for advertising. But obviously it’s not that, so what the heck? Does anyone care to hear about a drink this much?
