Attention Chance and Chloe Fans, Chloe Ends It With Billy, and Declares Her Love for Chance This Week (11/2)
This week, after being rejected my everyone and their mother, Billy goes to his fallback girl, Chloe for some comfort. And surprise, surprise, Chloe grows a backbone, and tells Billy to get to stepping, they’re better off as friends. Unfortunately for Chloe and Phate (Phillip and Kate) fans, Chance witnesses the Chilly kiss, but doesn’t see Chloe’s rebuff (you know how these things go.)
Chance gets stabbed on the job though, and Chloe realizes she’s in love with a man who actually loves her back. Go girl! It’s about damn time.
Lily and Cane Have Sex Tuesday, Lily Almost Dies Thursday
Does Maria hate this couple or what? Lily and Cane have bald sex on Tuesday, November 3rd, and by Thursday, she’s on her deathbed. Sex with Cane almost kills Lily, el oh el smiley face, el oh el smiley face. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed harder.
This Is Interesting, Billy Abbott Buys Restless Style Magazine
Now we know what Billy Abbott decides to do with his life after quitting Jabot. He buys Restless Style Magazine y’all! And what is the first thing Billy does with the magazine? He writes an expose on Victor Newman. I guess this one rivals Leanna Love’s Ruthless, because Mac is up in arms about what Billy’s done. He doesn’t care though, and continues his vendetta against the Newman family by posting an online article about Victoria.
Clearly Mackenzie isn’t ride or die, because word is, these two events push Bac to the breaking point. So…if Chloe is busy nursing Chance back to health, and Sharon is making moves with Adam, and Amber is still carrying on with both Daniel and Deacon, and Lily still has her head up Cane’s ass…who is Billy going to make the beast with two backs with? Esther?
There’s Nothing Like A Little Stabbing To Make You Realize You Love Someone
Spoiler Alert! For all you Chloe and Chance shippers, it looks like November is your month. Sir Chancelot (GC’s most inept detective– where’s Gil, Maria???) gets himself mixed up in a robbery, and uh oh, he’s stabbed. Now cue the music for the old “someone you’ve been indifferent about is suddenly fighting for their life, so now you’re in love” story line. That’s right, Chloe realizes that she could lose the one guy in all of Genoa City who might actually give a damn about her. She must do something amazing while tending to Sir Chance at the hospital, because Nina realizes that underneath Chloe’s hard exterior, she’s just a lovable ball of fun, and she does really have deep feelings for her son.
Mark Your Calendars, Lily and Cane Renew Their Vows Thursday
I don’t know if you want to DVR this, or make sure you fast forward it (I know which one I’ll be doing, LOL) but on Thursday, after what? two months of marriage, Lily and Cane renew their vows. Lily is suddenly healthy enough to get off house arrest, conveniently right after Colleen’s memorial (I C What U Did There Maria), so her warden/purse holder/con man husband/daddy allows her to visit Colleen’s grave.
While there, they end up in the chapel, and Cane apologizes for like the first time for lying to Lily, but hey, he still loves her. So frick and frack decide to reaffirm their commitment to one another with a vow renewal. I’m not sure if there’s an actual priest present, or if this is one of those Meredith and Derrick post-it deals.
Whatever it is, methinks the cattle mafia is coming to town soon.
Spoiler! Ashley Grows Half A Brain, And Tells Victor She Wants A Divorce
Ashley Abbott finally buys half a clue (heifer still doesn’t realize she didn’t give birth, and still thinks Adam is her new BFF) this week, and tells Victor she wants a divorce. All it took was Victor indirectly causing poor Colleen’s death by bringing crazy Patty Williams to town. After 800 some odd years of this triangle, Ashley also finally accepts Nikki and Victor’s undying love for each other, when she goes to the hospital to get ‘her’ daughter, and finds the two lovebirds cooing over ‘her’ baby.
Supposedly, all of this somehow makes Ashley a stronger woman (really? Hogan Sheffer wouldn’t know how to write a strong woman if she punched him in the face), and Ashley decides she wants the same thing for her daughters, that Nikki got for her children when she separated from Victor. But Nikki and Victor have other ideas. Those last lines makes me think that there may be some truth to the following spumors/rumors from Tamxxx at SOC:
- Victor and Nikki are reunited.
- They are succesful with this and so Adam will finally get whats coming to him!
- Ashley sees Nikki kissing Victor and is angry/upset so files for a divorce from Victor!
- Ashley is awarded the ranch and Newmans as part of her divorce settlement and she kicks Victor out of the ranch where he is living with Nikki.
- Ashley moves in with Sharon’s baby (which she thinks is hers lol) and invites Adam and Sharon to live at the ranch with her .
- This results in Adam and Sharon having a love affair.
- Victor and Nikki team up and plans to bring Ashley down.
C’mon Y&R: Volume 1
In case anyone was wondering where the hell the daily recaps went, well, this is for you. See, the original plan was for us to take the daily recaps to weekly. Unfortunately, the time we decided to start doing this happened to be when they kicked off this bullshit storyline about killing off Colleen. Because that totally makes sense, MAB. She’s Traci ABBOTT’s only child and could’ve moved back to New York with her until the role was recast but, as my mother says, that would be too much like right.
None of us recappers are happy about this, and I daresay none of you are either. Even if you were never a big CC fan I would hope that you’d understand why we’re all baffled at this. It’s bringing us down, man! Before, we were able to watch Y&R because, on some level, we loved to hate it. Now it’s hard to watch the show because we’re starting to genuinely hate it. It’s hard to drum up interest, or try to be funny when you really don’t enjoy the product anymore.

Tell Me Something I Didn’t Know. Joshua Morrow Says Baby Switch Story Line, “Will go on for a while.”
Joshua Morrow gives an interview in the latest issue of Soap Opera Digest, regarding Nick telling Phyllis that he was the father of Sharon’s baby. There’s a lot of talking in circles, and pointing out the obvious. (He says Phyllis is supportive when she learns about the baby’s paternity. And why shouldn’t she be? The baby is dead. The obstacle has been removed, and she didn’t even have to do anything. Hell, this will probably bring Phyllis and Nick closer.) I skimmed, and oohed and awed at all the pretty words, but this part caught my attention:
“I have a feeling this will go on for a while,” winks Morrow. “Maria Arena Bell has put together an awesome story.”
In the words of South Carolina Representative, Joe Wilson, “YOU LIE!“ Joshua Morrow, you know damn well this story is anything but awesome. But I respect that you’re trying to keep your job playa. Play on.
For those who want to read the full article, go here.
I See What You Did There Maria. Lily Is Too Weak To Attend Colleen’s Funeral. ‘Black Box’ Anyone?
The number one counter argument to the complaint that colored folks don’t get screen time on Y&R, is that Lily is on all the time. True. But have you paid attention to her scenes lately? (I know, with this show’s current state of FAIL, I’m asking a lot from you.) For the last month at least, Lily has had the EXACT same scene. Oh no? Let me spell it out for you:
Lily (of course EVERY ONE of these scenes take place on that sofa, in that house): Cane, whine, whine, whine, snap, snap, roll eye
Cane: Oh, you’re so cute when make the ‘I’m pissed’ face. (pats her on the head like a dog)
Lily: yada, yada, yada, Dru.
Cane: How is babby formed?
Lily: You’re right. I shouldn’t complain.
the end.
My problem is not with Lily, or Lane. My problem is with the horrible writing that has these characters playing the same scene over and over. It seems giving Lily cancer was Maria’s way of putting Lily in the ‘black box‘ without obviously putting her in the ‘black box.’ See, Lily’s on screen all the time, so people don’t notice it. But the only person she shares scenes with is Cane (who might as well be on minority row himself). Occasionally one of the ‘others’ will take pity and visit Miss Lily since she’s too weak to leave the house. But it’s all so ridic.
She’s finally granted a pardon and gets out on parole long enough to go to the hospital to visit her dead friend. But Parole Officer Ashby tells her to make it quick, she’s sick. Hello, Parole Officer Ashby, she’s in a hospital. If she’s sick, this is the place to be. Now word around the ‘net is, Lily’s immune system will be too compromised to go to Colleen’s funeral.
Well played, Maria. Well played. This is how you effectively isolate a character and give said character a ‘reason’ to do nothing, all while giving people what they ‘want’– more Lily, and more Lane. At one time the Lily character may have been fully integrated into the cast, but these days Lily is just as isolated as Neil and Devon. The difference is, we get to witness her isolation under the pretense that we’re watching the character go through cancer.
But hey, if y’all like it, I love it.
Y&R Spoilers – Week of 10/12
(this shit doesn’t even deserve an amusing photo)
- Sharon and Nick cry over their dead baby that’s not really dead. (Maria, you SUCK!)
- Billy and Chloe ‘face off.’ (What the hell does this mean? And who cares?)
- Danielle gets some help putting one over on Deacon. (Is anyone actually watching this story line? Hell, is anyone still watching this show?)
- Is Ashley going to leave Victor? (This shouldn’t even be a question. Again, Maria, you SUCK for writing such weak women!)
Clearly, I’m a tad bit DUN with this show. Let me go re-watch Kristin Chenoweth on Glee, LOL.
More from The “This Show Sucks A**” Files
According to the National Enquirer, the week of October 5th, Billy decides to make some life changes after Colleen’s untimely death. HillBilly decides to leave Jabot. To do what, you ask? Hell if I know. I guess he wants to spend more time in his trailer, and eat those salisbury steak frozen dinners (And before you accuse me of being elitist, let it be known that I like the Lean Cuisine salisbury steak dinner. Oooh random, The Famous Jett Jackson is on Flash Forward. What was I talking about again?).
If Jack is the only Abbott working at Jabot, does this mean we aren’t going back to the corporate story lines anytime soon?
p.s. What does this picture have to do with Y&R or Billy Abbott? Nothing really. But when you google “Billy Abbott” this is what shows up. Somehow, I thought it was appropriately fitting.
Is Colleen Carlton Going to Die? Yes.
Is Victor going to get her heart? Yes.
I’m sure you’re thinking, “What is the purpose of this post?” Well, some of the most common search engine terms that leas people to A Delusionary Truth are, “Is Colleen Carlton going to die?” “Is Victor going to get Colleen’s heart?” “Is Tammin Sursok leaving Y&R?” The answers to those questions are, yes, yes, and yes. I thought I’d just put some people out of their misery. Another question that’s often searched, “Where is Tammin Sursok going next?” She’s going to fight killer scarecrows. Don’t believe me? Read about it, here.
Good day.
Are You Ready for AshDam?
According to a spoiler thread at SOC (so make of it what you will), Ashley takes her ‘baby‘ and moves into the Abbott Mansion, inviting Adam to move into the pool house. Can anyone say love connection? I guess this means Billy has made Murphy’s trailer his permanent residence. SMH
Lane Spoiler, per Daniel Goddard
From his Twitter (the gift that keeps on giving):
“Cane and lily continue on their road of love and trust. With a love scene soon to come….”
oh jeez.
Colleen Bites the Dust – Y&R Preview Clip, September 17th Episode
Okay, so I’m not sure if Colleen is really going to die, but things aren’t looking good for the young Abbott heiress. This week (Sept 7th), she’s held hostage by crazy Mary Jane/Patty Williams. And it looks like the following week (Sept 14th), she says her last goodbyes. Rumor has it, Tammin Sursok, who has held the role of Colleen Carlton since she took over for Adrienne Leon in 2007, is out, and tiic aren’t recasting the role. So either CC is off to meet her father in the big boardroom in the sky, or it’s coma-ville for her. Check out this preview clip of Colleen’s possible demise. Are you glad to see Colleen gone?
Is Victoria Rowell returning to Y&R? If so, hell must surely be freezing over!
Well, well, well, its looks as if Y&R’s favorite Diva, Victoria Rowell, is once again in talks to renew her role as Drucilla Winters. Not only is she in talks, but sources say, that she is in the final stages of contract negations. After polls, letters, and fan out cry, Maria & co. have realized that there is only one woman who can play Drucilla Winters. But get this, Dru is already being written into a current storyline, and well since the Winters only have one storyline, it’s not hard to guess which one it is. Not only that, but VR herself was on CNN this past weekend, and said that she’s optimistic that Dru is still alive and bitching. (Well she didn’t say that last part but this is Dru, so…) Per her twitter page, VR stated that the ball is completely in Maria’s court. Let’s pray that she’s a rebounder.

Spoiled Bitch
Here are a few spoilers that might just help Maria and Co. reach their lofty goals of a 2.9. But all is not lost, because the first Lily spoiler has me intrigued, damn it they may only get a 3.0.

Spoilers that I don’t care about!
These maybe a little late, but for those who care, have at it.
Here comes the, umm, yeah
Amber tries to play Deacon, but unlike her purse holder, Little D, he isn’t a fool. She wants Deacon’s help to clear Little D. So he tells her it’s marriage or nothing. (Serious D? serious?) She turns him down and then goes to Little D, who lets her know that he doesn’t need her help, he can handle Big D on his own. Amber, knowing that’s a bunch of BS, runs back to Deacon and falls on her sword.
Well I guess she’s doing it for love, but I just think that she wants the D from Big D.
Kiss me and I’ll kiss you back
JT and Hater#1 aka Ball Buster aka Daddy’s little kiss ass aka NotVictoria aka Bortoria aka THAHT (Read: that HO aint Heather Tom), continues to get the FF from me. Alright for those who care: THAHT, is still mad that JT snuck his balls out of her purse. JT tell her they’re his, and he’s not giving them back. He also tells her that her pappy is why MJ is in town, Hater#1 knows her pappy is a SOB, but doesn’t want to hear it. So they part, still mad each other. JT heads over to CC were they share a passionate kiss! JT can’t believe that a woman will actually let him take the lead, but balls begins to to feel self conscious, so he doesn’t go any further. Well, he shouldn’t have started what he wasn’t going to continue, because DAMN daddy’s PI got pictures. Hater#1 goes to the GCAC and see’s Big D, who’s all come to my room so we can talk. THAHT follows sex on a stick up to his room to talk. (Yeah, Ho you are your dumbass mama’s child) She talks about Art, Big D is bored so he lays on her to get her to shut up, but thanks to Amber it stops before it REALLY get’s started. Hater#1 hides and realizes that she almost got her some good stuff, but she’s can’t handle the D train so she slumps back to her husband. Later daddy show his little ass kisser the pictures and she’s all angry, and confronts CC. (NO HO you need to take that to you man, FIRST) CC’s tells her that it was just a kiss, but THAHT thinks JT and CC have been playing hide and go get for a while.
Does anyone really care? Well I’m sure they care about JT/CC, but I just don’t care about NotVictoria.
Sharon Stands Alone
Niclueless and Red renew their vows (like that’s going to help), and the first thing he does, is run and tell St. Sharon. He’s like the Cabin was fun, and so was the hotel and yeah, it was good girl, but I’m back with Red, and we are going to be a happy family, if not quite happy, we will be a family. Sharon’s like are sure, because I just kicked Jack to the curb for the 100th time, and Nicks all “damn this shiz was bad timing”. Jack tells Red that the Saint played him again, and Red’s like “damn that shiz was good timing.” Well, Red doesn’t know that there will never be a good time, since Jack didn’t inform her that Niclueless was the father of The Saint’s baby. (It looks like Phick is out of the loop on that little bomb.) Jack is keeping the Saint’s secret, because the Saint wants to stand on her own, she doesn’t need a man, and she will take a note from the Queen of Hip hop Mary J and be “Just Fine”. She wants to take care of herself, and her baby. The Saint knows that she is messed up, but step one is to admit that you have a problem, and the Saint isn’t going to be Nicks HO any mo. She wants to be I N D E P E N D E N T do you know what that means? (more…)
Nikki’s Ditzlemma (is this even a spoiler?)
If anyone cares, and let me be honest, most people who read this blog DON’T, here is a spoiler about Nikki and Paul’s wedding.
Nikki is still sweating Victor, who isn’t worried about her. He’s moved on to Ashley, but Nikki is still in love with The Mustache, who isn’t in love with her. On the other hand, Paul is in love with her and they are supposed to get married. The closure the wedding get’s the more doubts Nicole has about going though with it. Now Paul’s dumbass knows that Nikki is still in love with the mustache, but he’s all I’m sure it won’t affect us. Lauran over hears Paul describe Victor as the love of Nikki’s life and is worried, because well, she knows that Paul is about to have a broken heart. Paul, wanting to show Nikki how much he means to her, buys her a necklace with an ice cream scoop charm, which represents how they met 50 years ago. (Aint that cute ya’ll) Nikki sees it, and the doubts come faster than Victor’s foot up her ass, because realizes that the PI is feeling her on a level that she just isn’t feeling him. Paul says he understands that getting a head out of Victor’s ass is an adjustment, but the air is so much fresher up here. She’s like you are so right, I will see you tomorrow at the church. Well less than 24hrs later, Nikki decides to pull an Assby and tells Paul that she isn’t ready for another divorce, and she needs sometime. So Nikki leaves, because MTS didn’t resign soon enough.
Well, I hope someone enjoyed this, because I didn’t and it will get the FF.

The Battle of the Greats, Victor v. Billy
This week on Y&R, TGBA learns that Jill only hired him as CEO, because Victor forced her to. What’s this? Who told him?! Well of course it was Genoa City’s resident Conman, Ethan Assby BKA the 40 year old orphan. Billy is upset to learn that his mother trusted Assby with the information, on top of letting someone make an ass of him. It’s no secret that Jill preferred her fake son, to her real one. When Billy confronts his mother with her betrayal, this HO acts like it’s no big deal. TGBA tells her that he doesn’t want anything from that HO and, the next time she needs a dime, go talk to her real son. (Ok, I don’t know if he says that, but he’s basically done with Jill)
TGBA has more on his plate, when CC tells him that she was caught flashing her boobs, in another ridiculous s/l from Maria and the scream team. Our favorite knight in rusty armor doesn’t do many good deeds, but there is no way in hell he’s about to let TGVN put one over on his CC. TGVN wants CC off the Newman board, because she’s disgraced the company. She offers to apologize, but the sanctimonious ass isn’t having it. TGBA has had enough, so he storms into to the Newman board meeting, in front of Ashley and the other Newmanss, ready to call TGVN out on his dealings with him and CC.
I love TGBA, but TGVN isn’t anything to play with, and the Abbots never win when it comes to him. Let’s hope Maria gives us an epic battle that’s entertaining and unpredictable, but since I have no faith in Maria, I’m sure it will be the same old shiz.

However, it doesn’t end there. “Great-aunt Virginia gives him a letter, written by Devon’s biological mother, Yolonda, to Devon’s real father.
