Oh, h*ll no!! Did Lauren tell Michael that she was off to Canada, and if he opted not to come along then, "I guess I'll see you when I see you?" Who does she think she is talking to? That is her HUSBAND, and those are fighting words.
I don't know, is she overdoing it where Fenn (Fen?) is concerned, or is she right to want to keep him in Canada away from Daisy? Is Michael being too laid back about the whole thing? If they do decide to let Fenn come home, they need to hire a bodyguard like Michael suggested, but I don't think Lauren is going to go for Fen coming back to Genoa City. The writers seem like they are trying to prep us for Lauren eventually going off the deep end.
And Jack, dear, absurd Jack. I canNOT believe that he actually said to GennieV "Do I have your word?" when he asked her how did he know she would show up. How could he even ASK such a question?
Victoria was looking beautiful today in that red dress that she had on. I LIKE this actress as Victoria. She plays the part of Victor's daughter beautifully. Whereas the previous Victoria played the part with a rude, snobbish air, THIS Victoria has brought a softness to the role that I really like.
Victoria was really giving Adam a hard time about "her" baby until Chelsea appeared on the scene in the hospital hallway and spilled the beans about Adam delivering the baby. Wasn't it just YESTERDAY Chelsea told Adam that she was not going to say a word about what happened with the whole delivery and everything? I do not trust Chelsea at all. She is trying to talk a good game like she is a changed woman, but she does not have me convinced.
I like the dialog and pairing of Chelsea and Adam, they go well together, as do GennieV. and Victor. Speaking of which, what in the h*ll is Victor doing showing up at GennieV's hotel room?? What if Jack would have been in there?
And Jack and Nikki, those two. Uuughhhh, they go good together. They both can fret and pout with each other til their hearts' content. Nikki comes rushing over to Jacks' talking about, "I don't know what to do!" because Victor lied to her AGAIN. She should be used to it by now. She needs to stop acting so frantic.
Devon. Devon, Devon, Devon. I'm glad he got his hearing back and everything, but his mother, that Harmony, is getting on my NERVES. How in the world does one go from playing an educated medical doctor (on All My Children), to playing some woman who can barely speak English?? "How many mo' a dees buttons an' switches we gotta push before we can hear dis song?" Uuugggghhhh, are you KIDDING me?? Every time that Harmony character opens her mouth, I'm actually scared to hear what is going to come out.
Love that beautiful desk in the studio where Devon does his work, where they were listening to the song.
Phyllis' black and white dress was GORGEOUS!!! Uuughh! Loved it!! And her hair looked nice and curly. I think that she needs to just forgive her dad already so that she can stop holding on to that grudge that she has against him.
And Avery, they need to glam her up a bit if you ask me. I don't trust Avery one bit either.
Loved Laurens' hair, looks healthy and voluminous, but they need to give her a new hairstyle already. She looks good, she looks like she doesn't age.
Daisy and Daniel. Daniel is just GORGEOUS. If Daisy was not such a nutcase, she would try to get on Daniel's good side, play up to him, and try to get him back. I'm kind of liking Daisy's hair color.
Love what Abby had on today. And her hair is gorgeous. Took me awhile to get used to this Abby, but she has grown on me.
I don't even know what to say about Nikki kissing Jack. I'm at a loss for words, just...nothing.

Amelia Heinle is one of my favorite actresses and I really like her as Victoria. She is a much better actress with a broader ranger than Heather Tom who was the previous Victoria. Heater always seems to be the same no matter what the role. I have seen Amelia on All My Children and in several of the movies she has been in and she adapts to what the role calls for. She is especially good at comedy.
I'm wondering if the Vegas trip will end with Jack married to Nikki and Genevieve married to Victor; that would stir things up.
They are really trying to rehabilitate Adam but I just can't get past some of the things he has done like murder. They will probably rewrite it so he did kill the guy in the basement of the club but I just don't thing that would be honest or fair to the viewers.

(I'm going to take your word for it on the actress' name :), and say) I REALLY like Amelia too. She is gorgeous. Sometimes all that hair she has gets on my nerves because it seems to be always covering one side of her face, but that is my girl.
My Aunt, who has watched All My Children since way before Popeye was a sailor, told me that Amelia used to be on AMC, but I never saw her there. I stopped watching AMC for a long while, but started watching them prior to them leaving ABC. I have never seen Amelia in any movies either. I would LOVE to see her in a comedy!
Heather Tom, I of course don't know her, but to me she seems to think that she is above it all. She has a "stiff" air about her, I mean, can you imagine Heather married to Billy Abbott?? I think that she was brought back down to earth when Amelia replaced her as Victoria, because I think that Heather felt that after she left Y and R, they would have a hard time finding a new Victoria.
That is why I like Amelia, because she came in playing Victoria TOTALLY different than Heather did. Amelia is soft, she seems like Victor Newmans' daughter. Heather seemed like she was trying to play that role almost as a young, female version of Victor. Too "manly".
I, too, am wondering if Nikki and Jack are going to get married. Yesterday coffeebreak wrote about Nikki probably flying to Vegas, but I had not even CONSIDERED that angle, and now TODAY, she is there, kissing Jack in the elevator. Uuugghhh, I'm sorry, I like Jack because he is John's son, but Jack gets on my nerves.
I think they are going to keep Adam around because they like him as an actor. Look at all the stuff Kevin did, and the writers somehow smoothed everything out because they liked him as an actor and wanted to keep him on the show.
I don't remember a lot about Adam and the guy in the basement at the club. Wasn't that during a fire? I need a refresher course.

Amelia Heinle had the lead female role in the TV movie Purgatory which had several well known male stars. She also had the lead female role in Black Cat Run and Earth vs. The Spider. She had some comedy scenes on All My Children where she played Mia. She also did a pilot for the romantic comedy Jack and Jill for the CW but when it aired Amanda Peet played the role; I think Amelia left because of personal reasons at the time and not because they didn't like her. I have a video tape of the pilot that I bought from someone online. She was also in Liars Poker and The Limey which I have seen on DVD. She was in some other TV movies that I haven't seen and can't remember the name of right now.

Yeah, I think they should have Nicki and Jack marry and Victor and Genevieve marry. That'd be great! I just dont' understand why Jack wants BofN so bad. I mean, I know it is competition to Jabot, but he isn't going to close it down...but keep it competition for his own company. DOn't understand that ! Why don't he start a men's line with Jabot...no competition for that..he'd have the whoel thing to himself!
And yeah, Phyliss was in a dress that covered her! What a novelty!

Hey, leave Phyllis' dress alone LOL!! She loves to show off that body, that's for sure. And almost every time Nick looks at her, he's looking her up and down like she is a steak and he hasn't eaten in 5 months.
I don't know why Jack wants Beauty of Nature so bad either. Just to get under Victors' skin is the only reason he needs. He really DOES need to give his full attention to Jabot, but he won't do it because he is too busy worrying about what Victor is doing.
I would like to see GennieV and Victor get married. She would give that man a run for his money. He needs someone strong to match wits with him and to play the same games on him that he loves to play on other people.
Did you hear him on the previews tell GennieV that that he would allow her to be the boss over Nick AND Sharon?? Nikki is going to have a fit if THAT deal goes through, and Nicholas is going to hit the roof. He may quit, AGAIN. Sharon, I doubt she would leave if GennieV came along and became her boss. Sharon is all about doing what is best for Sharon.

Your story was very detailed and I felt like I was reading a pocket book. Good job. I’ve watched the series once but I didn’t realize that a lot of things are really going on. Thank you for the update, I’m sure that a lot of readers, including me, will be more interested to see it.
