Nina & Jill

I think Nina and Jill did a FABULOUS job on today's show. When Nina lit into Phillip, I was practically applauding. He gave her that tired "I was just a kid!" line knowing full well that she was just a kid, too, with a baby to care for.

Jill's shock was really genuine, as well as her anger in the hospital when Phillip tried to explain why he put them through years of suffering for nothing. Great job by both ladies!

I just wish someone would have hauled off and slugged him

One thing that didn't make any sense in Phillip's explanation: he said he paid the doctor and the cop good money to help him leave town. Wouldn't someone have noticed that a huge chunk of money was taken out of Phillip's account AFTER his accident occurred? Or are we supposed to believe that he, too, had an account in the Caymen's no one knew about?

who writes this shit?

I nearly fell off my chair laughing Friday when Paul said Lily was a 'very good judge of character'.

First, we have Kevin, preying on underage girls.

Secondly, we have Daniel, her ex-husband, the porno junkie who contributed to her almost getting raped at the Rec Center.

Then we have Billy, who can't control his drinking or his sleeping around.

Now we have Cane, who is also apparently hiding a big secret.

Yep, she's a GREAT judge of character.

That line must have been written by the same person who had Victor telling Nick that "children need stability." How would HE know?

you can jump into the fire, but you can never be free

Dina came in for Katherine’s funeral even though they “were once friends,” yet she never bothered to come for John’s funeral OR Jack’s wedding? I found it interesting that she had to tell both her son and her daughters that she came because she and Katherine used to be good friends. Wouldn’t her family know that?

It was nice to see Brock and Nina. Damn, I wish she’d come back onto the show. It was cool to see her and Danny together, especially when you think back to how young they were when they were all on the show together. Too bad Christine wasn’t on.

Jill had really good scenes this week, as did Phyllis when she went crazy at the tack house. Why in the world doesn’t the make-up department use WATER PROOF mascara on Amber? She always looks like a cheap ho during crying scenes.

Wasn’t it nice to see that pig Victor Newman stride into church and ignore his own children? Typical asshole.

Why wasn’t “concerned” Gloria at the funeral? And where were Mike and Lauren and Kevin and Jana? Aside from Amber, it would be a bigger hoot if she left CI to Glo.

Nice to see the veteran cast returning, including Mitchell Sherman’s toupee. He officially has more hair now than he did before.
