10,000 th Episode to air on Thursday, I'm guessing Victor will return to GC then

I think it will be something m,ore like what OLTL did on an anniversay of theirs..made silly "few minute" stints... like on OLTL they put odd people together... it was just in fun and totally out of line with the story and silly. Like they could put Kyle with Lauren for the "cougar" thing. Victor SINGLE, Jack as a fast food flipper. Michael with Daisy, Jack with Gloria! Just silly stuff. I think what would be really good tho would be for them to take the first 2 episodes and show them..how it was back in the day of 1/2 shows and who was there at the start. ORiginal ones still there are Lauren, Mrs Chancellor, and Paul and next oldest is Nicki and VIctor - these are all original actors/ress. Jill is an original character but not by the current actress.

I hope they have more up their sleeves than Victor coming back. I mean, we have seen this played out too many times. Once he is back from wherever he went, him and Nikki happily reunites and after three episodes something will happen where they breakup. For once I would like to see something unpredictable. At the same time, I am looking forward to seeing everyone who crossed him tremble.

I am hoping they have something else up their sleeve, because if that is it, Victor returns and causes mayhem and turmoil, followed by the yearly Nikki reunion, then the conflict with Sharon because she is already with someone else and did not come looking for him and taking out revenge on those who wronged him - then that is the third time that story has played out. It is getting monotonous. It would be interesting if they showed Victor and Billy actually reconciling that the 10 000th episode had a series of flashbacks that made Victor realize that the reason he dislikes Billy so much is because how similar they are. They will do anything to protect someone they love, but they are perfectly capable of destroying the same person if they betray them or at least they believe they have been betrayed. They have really complicated family lives and the business normally comes first. The difference being that Billy is younger and had a different time growing up but in many ways they are equally ruthless.

Billy's in trouble already, did you see the look on Victoria's face? But I suspect Genevieve will leave town in disgrace. Sharon will be toast. Victor will get back with Nikki (for a week or two).
