Billy (with Kyle and Diane, upon catching Jack and Patty in flagrante delicto): Oh, wow. Oh, damn. This is not what I expected.

Kyle: Dad, what the hell?

Jack: Damn it!

Billy: Jack, what the …

Patty: This is a party! I mean, all the Abbott men in one place. I mean, oh, long time no see, Diane.

Diane: Shut up!

Patty: Oh, rude.

Nikki: Is your father bragging about what he’s done?

Victor: That’s enough from you.

Nikki: Hey, that works for me. I have no intention of speaking to a kidnapper, anyway.

Nikki (to Nick, Adam and Victoria): Your father lied to my face about what he did with Jack. I had to find out from Diane and Kyle.

Victor: You wouldn’t have understood anyway because it involved your precious Jack Abbott.

Nikki: What you did to Jack was absolutely heinous. How could you?

Victor: I did this for our family.

Nikki: No. You did it for your own damn ego! And it was spiteful and cruel. I don’t know that I will be able to forgive you.

Victor: Do you think I give a damn about whether you can forgive me? Get out! Now!

Recap written by Barbara

Christine has Sharon meet with her alone at the GCAC dining room to discuss Mariah’s upcoming meeting with the judge and to ask for Sharon’s help. Christine tells Sharon that she negotiated a plea deal with the DA – Mariah is to plead guilty in exchange for probation and treatment in a psychiatric facility. Christine says that if the judge signs off on it, it’s the best bet for Mariah to avoid prison. She informs Sharon that Mariah is not cooperating and that Mariah thinks she cheated the system and that probation and psychiatric care are too lenient. Christine tells Sharon that Mariah won’t listen to her anymore and asks her to talk to Mariah about the situation. Sharon is reluctant and suggests that Christine postpone Mariah’s meeting with the judge. Christine doesn’t think there would be a valid reason for that and insists that Sharon speak to Mariah.

Meanwhile, Daniel runs into Mariah at the Chancellor Park cafe, where she immediately asks him how her family, namely Tessa and Aria, are doing. He tells her they are doing ok and she asks about his status with Tessa. Mariah lets him know that she’s aware there’s something going on between Tessa and him, it’s fine with her, and says she needs to know that Tessa has moved on. Daniel defers to Tessa. Mariah tells him she is going to plead guilty, deserves to go to prison for a long time and asks him to look after Tessa and Aria when she’s gone.

Daniel explains that there’s still hope for her and Tessa, unlike his permanent loss of Heather. He eventually gets through to Mariah and she admits that she loves and misses her family so much and that it is killing her not to be with them. However, she also says that she was awful to Tessa, Aria and Dominic and that she planned everything. She says that she can’t go back to her family after what she did and runs off. Daniel calls Tessa, who meets him at the cafe, and he tells her that Mariah admitted that she misses Tessa and Aria. He also says that he feels that Tessa and Mariah have unfinished business because they’re still married and share a child together. He tells Tessa that she needs to know in her heart what it is and who it is she really wants, him or Mariah.

Back at Crimson Lights, Christine and Sharon run into Mariah. Christine is trying to persuade Mariah to take the plea deal when Mariah gets a text from Tessa asking to meet with her.

Chelsea and Billy encounter each other at Society, where she expresses sympathy for his loss of Chancellor and is happy to hear that things with him and Sally are back on track. They talk about what Victor’s kidnapping of Jack and Billy expresses satisfaction that Victor only got Chancellor back, which was Katherine’s legacy, not Victor’s. Things turn ugly when Chelsea expresses her annoyance at how Billy folded what had been Newman Media into what became Spectra-Charles Media and he speculates that she Adam and might have been involved in Victor kidnapping Jack. They argue.

In the Las Vegas hotel room that he and Nick are secretly sharing, Adam leaves another voicemail for Riza, reiterating his desire to talk with her. Nick is antsy, impatient and very on edge because the fentanyl he has become addicted to for his leg pain has worn off. Adam is anxious and concerned about seeing Riza again, but rejects Nick’s offer for him to call it quits, go home and avoid having to be back in contact with her. Adam insists he’s not backing out. Riza finally returns Adam’s call and agrees to meet him alone in what he leads her to believe is his hotel room. Nick takes off and pops one of the fentanyl pills as soon as he gets inside the hotel elevator. While waiting for Riza, Adam has a drink from the hotel room bar. When she arrives and he lets her in, she points a gun at him.

Y&R Raves and Rants #10

Posted on March 22, 2026 by TvMegasite Admin

Young and the Restless Opinion Article

Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) and Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) argue on "The Young and The Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (screencap)

Article written by Barbara 3/21/26

Although the week of 3/16/2026 was a short one for Y&R (3/19 and 3/20 episodes were preempted by CBS broadcasting NCAA basketball tournament games), there was still plenty that I liked and disliked about Y&R on the days it aired … just my humble opinions, no particular order, just random musings.

Raves:

The cat fight between Nikki and Phyllis at the bar in GCAC was great.!

Given their volatile history, I am really liking Billy’s support of Jack during the Patty debacle, especially when he told Jack, “I love you”. . Very touching.

Diane was a force to be reckoned with as she unleashed her fury on Jack for having drugged-up sex with psycho Patty Williams (although I like the guy and feel sorry for him). Susan Walters nailed those scenes.

I am loving the way Nick and Adam are strategizing, cooperating, and respecting each other’s differing points of view regarding their plan to find Matt in Las Vegas.

I simply adore Michael and Lauren together and how well their marriage/partnership works.

Rants:

Victor is being beyond cruel and mean, especially to Nikki. He has sunk to a vile and disgusting new low. Screaming insult after insult at Nikki, and throwing her out of their home … wow, just wow. He deserves to be 100% ALONE – no family legacy, no wife … nothing.

In typical Newman style, protecting her precious “daddy”, Victoria played dumb and eventually lied, feigning ignorance, while Nate expressed his concerns and thoughts to her about the mystery of Lily and the twins’ disappearance.

I can’t quite put my finger on it, but there’s something about doe-eyed Claire and the way she expresses herself that makes her annoying, especially when she was talking with her grandma Nikki about the deteriorating state of Nikki and Victor’s marriage. Claire was trying to comfort her grandma, but it fell flat to me, almost condescending.

Neither a Rave nor a Rant:

I have not changed my feelings about Sienna – I do not like her at all – but in all fairness, she was tolerable on 3/18/2026 because she was in a meaningful conversation with Noah and Sharon and was simply giving them valuable, factual information about Matt, based on her experience and history with him.

The opinions in these articles are those of the writer and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of TVMEG.COM or its other volunteers.

Michael (Christian Jules LeBlanc) and Lauren (Tracey Bregman) on "Young and the Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (pic from Paramount Press site)

Best Lines provided by Barbara

Michael (approaching Lauren sitting at a table in the GCAC dining room): How can this be? The most beautiful woman in the world dining alone?

Lauren: Because I’m waiting for the most handsome man in the world to show up.

Michael: Oh. George Clooney’s on his way?

Lauren: Yep. Should be here in about two minutes.

Michael: Damn! Out of curiosity, would you be willing to settle for the second-most handsome man in the world?

Lauren: Hmm. I’m thinking …

Michael: Well, this may sway you.

Lauren (gasps): What?

Michael: Bagels from Tompkins Square.

Lauren: Bagels and – oh! And a mustache from New York City? Wow!

Michael: Yeah, eat your heart out, Clooney.

Michael: If you semi-retired, we’d be able to go on trips like that whenever we wanted.

Lauren: Darling, we just went on the anniversary trip with our boys.

Michael: Which was great. But I am talking about whisking you away to Saint-Tropez at the last moment … just you and me on a beach. Clothing optional.

Lauren: Ho ho. Tell me more.

Michael: Uh, we can go on safari in Africa. We can explore the pyramids in Egypt. I wanna dance with you on every rooftop café on the continent.

Lauren: That’s very ambitious.

Michael: Come on, baby. Pack a bag. Just you and me. Let’s go.

Phyllis: Um, Jack has been released, and it’s not because of Victor?

Billy: No, Diane, Kyle, and I tracked the vehicle that he was abducted in to a marina in Kenosha. We found him on a yacht in Lake Michigan.

Phyllis: Wait – a yacht?

Billy: Trust me, not as glamorous as it sounds.

Phyllis: Is he okay?

Billy: Yes. He’s fine.

Phyllis: Uh, just – and … you’re sure that he was there because of Victor?

Billy: Of course I am, Phyllis. It’s Victor. This is what he does. He abducts people and he holds them against their will.

Michael: So what is this venture that’s gonna prevent you from running away with me at a moment’s notice?

Lauren: Um, Phyllis has asked me to help her run Newman Enterprises.

Michael: Come again?

Lauren: It’s not Newman anymore, of course. It’s Summers Conglomerate.

Michael: Mm. How humble and honest. Much like the new owner.

Lauren: She’s really staking her claim.

Michael: Hmm. And you would be listening to Phyllis’s offer why?

Lauren: Because she’s my friend and it’s a huge corporation.

Michael: Yeah. I’m familiar. I used to work for the previous owner. Its namesake.

Lauren: I need a new challenge.

Michael: So you don’t wanna traverse the world with me … instead? I’m an excellent travel companion.

Lauren: Oh, I am well aware of your merits. But I think this is gonna be so great for me to try something new.

Michael (sighs): You said it was a challenge. A challenge usually has the possibility of being successful. This idea’s doomed from the start.

Lauren: She captured the white whale and should be commended for it.

Michael: Uh, the white whale wins, at least in the novel.

Michael (as he and Lauren enter Phyllis’s office): I love what you’ve done with the place.

Phyllis: Yeah, thank you. A woman’s touch. Out with the old, in with the new.

Michael: Is that what one does after a coup?

Phyllis: After a triumph, definitely.

Michael: You have taken everything from him.

Phyllis: That’s not true. He has Chancellor. He and Nikki can do with it what they will. I mean Nikki can do her thing. It’s a sizable corporation. He can rename it Newman Enterprises if he wants.

Michael: He will never be satisfied with just Chancellor.

Phyllis: Why’s that? Because the emperor has to have everything?

Lauren: Okay, both of you. Stop it!

Courtney Hope (Sally) and Jason Thompson (Billy) on Y&R on CBS/Paramount+ (photo from screencap)

Sally: If you’re serious about letting go of Chancellor … don’t jump into anything else right away. Take some time to regroup.

Billy: Do you want me to read some books? Do some manifesting?

Sally (giggles)

Billy: Sit in the forest with my shoes and socks off and touch grass?

Y&R Raves and Rants #9

Posted on March 19, 2026 by TvMegasite Admin

Young and the Restless Opinion Article

Adam (Mark Grossman) and Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) have dinner on "Young and the Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (pic from screencap)

Article written by Barbara 3/16/26

Here is what I liked and disliked about Y&R for the week of 3/9/2026 (just my humble opinions, no particular order, just random musings)

Raves:

I really enjoyed the love and chemistry between Adam and Chelsea during their dinner out at GCAC 3/9/2026 and their scenes on subsequent episodes this week.

Not liking, but *loving* the brotherly bond between Nick and Adam to go up against and take down the dastardly Matt Clark. Watching the brothers shake hands in unity to find and take Matt down gave me happy chills. I know soaps thrive on family discord, but in this case, given the brothers’ long history of bitterness and animosity, I am happy to see harmony between them. Loved their mutual recognition of how far they’ve come and progressed as brothers.

Nick’s sensitivity, compassion and the concern he expressed to Sharon about Adam having to recall his bad days as Spider in Las Vegas in order to help find the woman who could lead them to Matt’s whereabouts was very touching.

Ditto for Adam’s compassion and desire to use his dark past as Spider in Vegas to help Nick find and deal with Matt. His loved ones are understandably concerned, but Adam has wholeheartedly decided to put helping Nick go after Matt ahead of his own demons.

Billy Flynn ‘s solo performance as his character was making a video for Lily (apologizing for mistakes he’d made and declaring his unwavering love for her) was riveting.

Rants:

Not liking Phyllis’s one-shoulder-off dress. Not only is it inappropriate for her to be wearing in the office, but even at Society, where it would be fine for attire, it looks like one sleeve is accidentally falling off her shoulder because it’s too large or something, when it’s actually designed to be off the shoulder.

Not liking Phyllis’s attitude either, LOL.

While Sienna and Noah were at Society, sitting and talking about his father and the situation with Matt, her constant hand gestures with all the gaudy costume jewelry rings and dark nail polish were distracting and annoying. Ugh.

The return of Patty Williams … I’ll just say that I hope it’s a short story arc … very short. Watching her seducing a drugged-up Jack was revolting.

The opinions in these articles are those of the writer and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of TVMEG.COM or its other volunteers.

Daytime Soap Opera Short Recaps

Y&R logo

Recap written by Barbara

Chelsea goes over to Crimson Lights, where she shares her concern with Sharon about Adam teaming up with Nick to go after Matt in Las Vegas. Sharon assures Chelsea that Adam will be able to handle any bad associations from his past in Vegas that might be dredged up and will have Nick there for support.

Meanwhile, the two brothers go over to the Newman ranch to let their father know that they got a lead on Matt being in Las Vegas and they are heading there to follow up on it. Victor tells his sons that he’s happy that they are working together to protect the family, advising caution.

Victoria enters and announces that she is heading to Milan to meet with Summer and that Victor is holding Jack hostage to “pressure Phyllis and/or Billy” into returning Chancellor to the family. Nick is shocked and appalled by this and by Victoria being ok with it.

Nikki shows up at the Abbott mansion to talk to Traci about Jack’s disappearance. She informs Traci that Victor has had Jack abducted in exchange for Chancellor and Jack is on a yacht on Lake Michigan with a woman. When Traci brings up how Lily and her children were part of Victor’s scheme to abduct them, Nikki indicates that Victor not only wants Chancellor back, but he also wants to punish Jack so this abduction has been against Jack’s will. She also tells Traci that Victor could have arranged for the woman to seduce Jack. Traci tells her not to worry and that Jack would not succumb to temptation.

Billy, Kyle and Diane are able to get to the yacht where a drugged up Jack is giving into having sex with a relentless Patty Williams. Diane bursts into the bedroom and catches Jack and Patty in bed together immediately afterward, with Billy and Kyle racing in right behind Diane. Patty declares that it’s a party with all the Abbott men in one place. Diane is livid and when Patty gets dressed and is made to leave the room with Billy and Kyle, Diane slaps Jack across the face.

After Traci and Nikki find out that Jack has been found safe, Nikki confronts Victor with this news in front of their children when she returns to the Newman ranch. Victor doesn’t believe her and leaves to find out more. Nick argues with Victoria about her dragging his daughter into their father’s battle to get the family legacy back from Phyllis.

After the Newman siblings leave, Victor returns and Nikki expresses her disgust about what he did to Jack. He tells her that he did it for his family’s sake. She says she does not know that she will be able to forgive him for it. He indicates that he doesn’t give a damn and screams at her to get out now.

Recap written by Barbara

Adam and Chelsea are out to dinner at GCAC, although neither of them have an appetite because of how upset they are about the loss of the Newman family legacy to Phyllis and Billy. They discuss the impact it will have on the various Newman family members and Adam expresses his appreciation of Chelsea’s support. They joke about what kinds of jobs they could get when the Newman money runs out, including him being a card shark again and her returning to running cons. She says she could be his shill.

Billy comes to Phyllis’s office to demand that she get the contract that will give him Chancellor signed within an hour because Victor kidnapped Jack and will not release him until Billy gives Victor Chancellor back.

He then meets up with Diane and Kyle at Society and lets them know that Phyllis is giving him a hard time about signing the contract. He also expresses uncertainty about whether Jack is actually in danger from Victor without proof. After pressure from Diane and Kyle, Billy texts Victor and tells him to send him proof that he has his brother and he will make sure Victor gets Chancellor back. Shortly thereafter, Billy gets a text from an unknown number with a picture dated the day before with Jack looking unconscious wearing the shirt Diane last saw him in. Billy thinks it must be from Victor using a burner phone.

Phyllis goes to the Newman ranch to meet with Victor. She lets him know that she still owns Chancellor and if he wants it back, he will have to negotiate with her, not Billy. Victor says it’s a demand, not a negotiation and Phyllis capitulates. She says she will give him Chancellor back if he releases Lily, the twins and Jack. Victor is shocked and skeptical and gets her to admit that she just wants her children to love and respect her so she will give up Chancellor for their sake. Victor is distrustful, tells her to give him an hour, during which time she is to get the papers drawn up and then they’ll see. He warns her not to ever start negotiating again or the deal is off.

A bewildered Jack finds himself in a bedroom stranded on a lake in a yacht with Patty Williams, who says she is rehabilitated and wants to make amends. Jack is skeptical, infuriated and wants nothing to do with her. She leaves him in the room and comes back with food and drinks for him, which he refuses. She taste tests everything to prove it’s not poisoned and after she expresses deep regret for the mistakes she made with him and his family and describes the excruciatingly difficult work she did on herself to get well in the psychiatric facility, Jack warms up to her attempt at redemption and forgiveness. He says he could see his way to believing and forgiving her if she gets them to shore together where they can eventually go their separate ways and she can go back to rebuilding herself. Patty tells him that’s not an option because she’s not the one in charge here.

Y&R Raves and Rants #8

Young and the Restless Opinion Article

Victoria (Amelia Heinle) and Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) on "The Young and the Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (photo from screencap)

Article written by Barbara 3/6/26

Here is what I liked and disliked about Y&R for the week of 3/2/2026 (just my humble opinions, no particular order, just random musings)

Raves:

Victoria and Nikki looked beautiful in the 3/2/2026 episode … Victoria’s top was beautiful and her hair looked great pulled up into a bun. Nikki’s blue flowered blouse really brought out her blue eyes.

I liked Sharon’s blue denim shirt, outfit and casual look (light makeup, hair straight down).

Enjoyed the friendly conversation between Kyle and Claire at the bar in Society. I’m not much of a Claire fan, but there’s chemistry between these two. (Nonetheless, I think she overdoes it just a bit with facial expressions and eye movements – in these scenes and in the scenes with her and Victoria on 3/6/2026.)

Ooh, another solid female friendship – Tessa and Sienna. It’s continuing to be refreshing to see women bonding rather than sniping at each other or gossiping about each other.

Billy Flynn did a great job projecting his character’s Cane’s desperation to get his family back when he was begging Phyllis to help him. I could almost feel his anxiety.

Likewise, Jason Thompson did a great job projecting his character Billy’s panic and desperation to find out what happened to his brother, Jack, who as of 3/6/2026 appeared to have been kidnapped by Victor.

Rants:

In a word … Sienna. I cannot stand that fake, forced, tough and gritty type accent of hers. This character just really annoys me.

Gee, only one rant. Apparently, this was a good week for me on Y&R.

The opinions in these articles are those of the writer and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of TVMEG.COM or its other volunteers.

Audra (Zuleyka Silver) and Sally (Courtney Hope) on Young and The Restless - CBS/Paramoujt+ (pic from screencaps)

Best Lines provided by Barbara

Sally: I know you’re not a fan of Billy’s.

Audra: I mean, it’s not about him. I mean, yes, he’s insensitive, impulsive, self-centered…

Sally: Okay. But it’s not about him?

Audra: You could say that about almost any man, Sally. It’s the nature of the species.

Audra: Okay, I’m sorry, but sure does seem like one night of great sex has turned a big corner for you.

Sally: Hey, it was a lot more than that.

Audra: Sorry. I didn’t mean to presume. I was just being a little bitchy. But I’m not wrong about how he hurt you. Or everything you had to give up to be his partner. Marchetti was a pretty good gig.

Sally: I do not regret any of my decisions.

Audra: Even before last night?

Sally: Even before.

Audra: Okay, like I said, it’s your life, your choices. It’s none of my business. But I’d still run for the hills if it were me.

Sally: Even if it were Nate?

Audra: Unfair.

Sally: Why?

Audra: Because I was the one who screwed that up, not him.

Sally: I have never been one to play it safe. So why do I do that with my relationships? I believe in Billy and me. And … for the first time in my life, I am choosing love … over fear.

Billy: Hey. Where’s Jack?

Kyle: Hey. He flew to Chicago on some Jabot business. What’s going on?

Billy: You know that for sure?

Kyle: Know what?

Billy: That he’s in Chicago.

Kyle: Yeah. It was a last-minute thing. He texted my mom and me last night.

Billy: Okay. Where’s he staying?

Kyle: Okay, just slow down, Billy.

Billy: Kyle, what hotel is he at?

Kyle: No. First you’re gonna tell me why you’re flying around here like a bat out of hell. What’s wrong?

Billy: Look, I hope that it’s nothing, but I don’t think it is.

Kyle: Just tell me.

Billy: Is Diane here? She needs to hear this.

Diane: I – I’m right here. Billy, what’s going on?

Billy: Victor kidnapped Jack.

Sally: You’re probably so bored of this by now – “The amazing adventures of Billy and Sally.”

Audra: Are you kidding? I am a sucker for dysfunctional relationships. That’s my jam, girl.

Sally: Well, I am really glad we could be so entertaining for you.

Audra: Oh, it’s better than television.

Sally: Uh, let’s not forget that I came into this relationship with a lot of baggage of my own.

Audra: Sally, you brought a purse. Billy had a whole set of luggage.

Audra: I get the attraction between you and Billy. You know, he’s got that smile, he’s got those charms. And when he looks at you … man … I want that look one of these days. I want someone to see me and just, uh … light up the way Billy does when he sees you.

Sally: You will.

Audra: Yeah, maybe in like 20 years or so.

Sally: Audra, you will. You just haven’t found the right guy yet.

Claire: Is there any update? Has Grandpa figured out a way to save the company?

Victoria: No, nothing so far. However, he says he has a new plan in the works, but as usual, he won’t tell any of us about it.

Claire: Mm. Sounds like Grandpa.

Victoria: Yeah. It’s very frustrating for all of us. We’re smart people. We have ideas. But when things get critical, he always insists on taking care of everything himself.

Claire (snickering): Mm-hmm.

Victoria: Why is that funny?

Claire: It’s kind of funny,

Victoria: Is it? Why?

Claire: Okay. Well, I think it’s kind of ironic to hear you complaining about Grandpa, wanting to handle things all on his own when I think secretly you would like to be doing the same thing yourself.

Adam: What do you think you’re doing?

Kyle: Calling the cops.

Victor: I wouldn’t do that if I were you

Kyle: I don’t give a damn what you think.

Victor: You don’t call the cops without reporting a crime.

Diane: Well, kidnapping is a crime, Victor.

Victor: How do you know he didn’t just decide to take a vacation?

Victor: Listen, if you wanna know more, just contact your idiot Uncle Billy Boy, okay?

Kyle: If you do anything to hurt my father, I will make it my mission in life to destroy you, Victor.

Victor: Listen to me, boy. Instead of threatening me … why don’t you contact your idiot Uncle Billy Boy? I want my company back. He has the means to do it. See to it that he does!

Sally: So what are you gonna do?

Billy: If this is about getting a signature on a piece of paper, then I call my attorneys and I get it done.

Sally: But I thought you said that you thought Phyllis was stalling.

Billy: Yeah, I mean it’s either that or it’s Phyllis, you know, making me sweat just for old times’ sake.

Sally: Do you really think Victor would do something like that? You really think he’s gonna hurt Jack?

Billy: I think it would be a very big mistake to underestimate Victor’s hatred for my brother. I mean, we’re talking a decades-long rivalry, and that match is very quick to light.

Kyle: God! I wanna hit him!

Diane (scoffs): Well, you would have had to have stood in line behind me.

Victoria (Amelia Heinle) and Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott) on "The Young and the Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (photo from screencap)

Best Lines provided by Barbara

Nikki: Well, I”m glad you couldn’t track him down. I would have worried that you wouldn’t have been able to stop yourself from doing something we would all regret.

Nick: Anything that gets that psycho out of our lives for good would not be regrettable.

Nikki: It would be if it landed you in jail.

Victoria; You know, Nick, Matt could have killed you. You’re lucky that only one leg was shattered. I’m with Mom. I’m glad that you weren’t able to track him down.

Victor: I don’t like not knowing where he is. It gives him the upper hand.

Nick: Agreed. Feels like the calm before the storm. The problem is, we don’t know what direction that storm is coming from or when it’s gonna hit.

Cane: I truly believe that the only reason she’s continuing down this path and refuses to give it up is because she has nothing left. She’s clinging to this new role as CEO, not because she’s enjoying it, but because she feels abandoned by the people that matter to her most.

Daniel: Abandoned? She abandoned us!. She’s operating with a blatant disregard for the people that you claim that she loves. You know why? Because all she cares about is being one of Genoa City’s power elite. Everything else, that just – it falls by the wayside now.

Cane: Look, I’m just telling you what I observed the last time I spoke with her, and it’s not someone who’s reveling in being on top. Okay? She’s suddenly aware of what it cost her to get what she always wanted.

Daniel: That’s good. ‘Cause if losing us gets my mother to wake up to the mistakes that she’s made, I’m willing to be that sacrificial lamb.

Phyllis: This is a multinational company. You think I’m just gonna hand you Chancellor, what, and jot something down on a cocktail napkin or write some scribble on your hand or something? Come on!

Billy: I”m gonna need reassurances apart from a reworded contract.

Phyllis: You know what I’m gonna need? I’m gonna need you to be less paranoid. No one’s trying to attack you. No one’s trying to stab you in the back. You and your attorneys will thank me after this is done, okay?

Billy: I’m gonna hold you to that, Phyllis.

Phyllis: Great. Do that. In the meantime, while you’re waiting for the sweetheart of a deal, why don’t you spend time with your sweetheart? In your robes and your little socks. Your coffee mugs. While you … while you enjoy your nonprofessional life.

Billy: It’s happening, Victor. Chancellor Industries is now in the hands of its rightful leader. I know it’s a shock to hear it said out loud, but it feels pretty good to me, especially saying it to you.

Victor: I’ve got news for you. Chancellor Industries will be back in my hands before the end of the business day.

Billy (chuckles): That’s funny. You working on your stand-up routine now that you have so much time on your hands?

Victor: I’ll be very busy once the company belongs to me again.

Billy: I think all of this is making you a little delusional because there is not a chance in hell that I will be handing Chancellor Industries back to you.

Victor: If you don’t … neither you nor anyone in your family … will ever see Jack Abbott again.

Interview with Charlie Sadoff, Gabriel London and Danielle Dupree

Posted on March 6, 2026March 6, 2026 by TvMegasite Admin

TV Interview!

director/producers Charlie Sadoff, Gabriel London and debate coach Danielle Dupree of film "Immutable" (photos from official site)

Interview with director/producers Charlie Sadoff, Gabriel London and debate coach Danielle Dupree on PBS by Suzanne 3/5/26

This is such an interesting documentary about Washington DC teens learning about debating and how it changes their lives. It’s very informative, uplifting and heart-tugging. I enjoyed speaking with the two men who made the film, as well as one of the woman that appears in it.

Key art for the PBS documentary "Immutable" MORE INFO: Official Site Official PBS Site Trailer

Directed by: Charlie Sadoff & Gabriel London
Produced by: Charlie Sadoff, Gabriel London, & Keith M. Brown

Immutable is a feature documentary that follows a group of students from the Washington Urban Debate League as they fight to find their voices in a world that too often tries to silence them. Against the backdrop of a city marked by inequality, these young debaters confront daily challenges that range from housing instability to neurodivergence. For some, debate is a path to college. For others, it’s a lifeline.

We meet them at a summer debate camp, where their journey begins—not just to win tournaments, but to sharpen arguments that reflect their own lives. One girl, autistic and fearless, demands the world see people with special needs as whole. Others argue for economic policy reforms while navigating poverty themselves. As multiple seasons unfold, Immutable captures the grit, intellect, and heart of students who are determined to not only become top-tier debaters but to change the course of their lives.

The film, which is airing on National Speech and Debate Day as part of the PBS America @ 250 commemoration of the country’s 250th anniversary, comes at a time of deep division in the United States. Debate, which emphasizes civil discourse and the ability to argue all sides of an issue, makes the film especially timely.

How to Watch Immutable

Immutable is available to stream on pbs.org and the free PBS App, available on iPhone, Apple TV, Android TV, Android smartphones, Amazon Fire TV, Amazon Fire Tablet, Roku, Samsung Smart TV, and Vizio.

Charlie Sadoff is a producer, director and editor whose most recent film Against All Enemies premiered to critical acclaim at the 2023 Tribeca Film Festival, went onto to win multiple best documentary awards and after its release in 2024 was the number one ranked doc on the Apple TV charts. His early work includes the Emmy Award winning Liquid Television and Peter Gabriel’s VMA and Grammy Award winning music video Steam. Documentaries he has produced include For Our Daughters, The Mind of Mark Defriest which premiered at Hot Docs and aired on Showtime, Dream Riders (Sheffield Doc Fest, Discovery), the 10 part series The Rites of Autumn for ESPN and multiple docs for History and CBS Sports. Charlie seeks projects that can help affect meaningful change and Cut Poison Burn (Mill Valley) and The Harvest (IDFA, Epix) from executive producers Eva Longoria and Academy Award winners Shine Global both screened on Capitol Hill as part of efforts to move legislation. The Definition of Insanity, which he wrote and produced for PBS in 2020 is currently being used to help cities around the world change the way people with mental illness interact with the criminal justice system. Charlie has served as a judge for the Emmy Awards and a guest lecturer at the graduate school of journalism at Columbia University. He has won multiple Golden Trailer, Cynopsis Social Good, Promax Gold, BDA and film festival awards. Immutable key art - National Speech & Debate Education Day

Gabriel London is an award-winning documentary filmmaker whose films have tackled major policy issues of the day from mass incarceration to climate change. Gabriel won the Albert R. Broccoli best film award for his first prison documentary, Turned Out, and went on to collaborate with Human Rights Watch on the first nationwide study of prison rape. The resulting films, No Escape: Prison Rape in America, received the Soros Criminal Justice Award and were instrumental in the passage of Prison Rape Elimination Act. Gabriel has made intimate documentaries with notable talent, including Drew Barrymore’s film on voting, The Best Place to Start, and Snoop Dogg’s autobiographical story, Youth Authority: California. Gabriel’s most recognized work, The Mind of Mark DeFriest, won a number of awards at film festivals and went on to help reduce the title subject’s sentence by over 70 years, before being aired on Showtime. In 2020, Gabriel directed The Definition of Insanity, which aired on PBS and has been used as a tool for mental health reforms nationwide.

Danielle Dupree is a full time debate coach for Washington Urban Debate League, as well as a former debate judge and high school debater. An alumna of Howard University from PG County, MD, she spent 4 years at Duval High School, where she became a debater. Now she uses her youth and experience to relate to students and help them grow in their own relationships with debate.

Best Lines provided by Barbara

Audra: Something wrong?

Claire: Oh, I’m just in a state of shock that you would hold a door open for me.

Audra: You thought I’d let it hit you in the face?

Claire: I thought you’d slam it.

Audra: I’m curious. Why were you with Holden in the first place? Was it a one-night stand you couldn’t quit? Something more?

Claire: Why do you care?

Audra: Well, he just doesn’t seem like your type. But maybe that’s what you were going for – the opposite of Kyle.

Kyle: Sorry, am I late?

Claire: You are right on time.

Kyle: Well, thanks for agreeing to have breakfast with me.

Claire: You’re welcome.

Audra: You know, maybe there’s another reason why you and Holden are done. Rebound over. Pivot back to ex.

Claire: Have a lovely day, Audra.

Audra: You too, Claire.

Tessa: Oh, Daniel, this is Sienna. I know her from LA. We were in the music scene together.

Daniel: Oh, cool. Uh, nice to meet you.

Sienna: Yeah, likewise.

Daniel: So … what brings you to town?

Sienna: Oh, um, well, it’s kind of a long story, but I live here now and uh, I’m with Noah Newman.

Daniel: Oh! With Noah. Noah and I actually share a half-sister, Summer.

Sienna: Wow. It seems like everybody in this town is related to a Newman.

Daniel: Yeah, it’s the truth.

Kyle: She’s not worth anyone’s energy. Especially yours. You’re too good of a person.

Claire: I’m not perfect.

Kyle: Eh, from where I’m sitting, you’re pretty flawless.

Claire: Flatterer.

Kyle. Besides, the less time spent on Audra opens up more time to …

Claire: To do literally, anything else? Because that would be preferable.

Kyle: Not to push, but I wouldn’t mind having breakfast more often with you.

Claire: Just breakfast?

Kyle: I’m open to lunch. And coffee. Grocery shopping.

Claire: Mm-hmm.

Kyle: I mean, I’ll pretty much take any opportunity I can get to spend more time with you.

Claire: Grocery shopping? It’s a date.

Best Lines provided by Barbara

Kyle (to Claire as she’s walking toward the bar at Society, looking down at a book she’s holding): Is that book so people won’t try talking to you? And here I am talking to you. We can just pretend that I didn’t see you.

Claire: It was one of my dad’s. The plan was to have an empanada and read some of the same words as my dad, and remember that there are good people in the world.

Kyle: Woof.

Audra: Oh, look who’s back from Los Angeles. Guess it didn’t go well if you’re back so soon. You couldn’t recapture some of that LA magic.

Holden: Seems like a bad idea for you to joke about LA, given the current circumstances.

Sally: Very nice.

Billy: Well, you set the bar pretty high. You did something like this for me not too long ago. You know, when you lived here and had a key and all that?

Sally: I think your snacks might be a little better.

Billy: Yes. Score one for me.

Sally: Half a point.

Audra: You wanted to just recapture whatever magic you had in LA, but Claire had other plans. She just wanted to find dirt on me.

Holden: Claire isn’t as obsessed with you as you are with her.

Audra (scoffs): Obsessed. She left Genoa City while her family is at war. You think that was to cuddle with you?

Holden: Ha. No.

Audra: That whole trip was about finding more dirt on me. She never would have left otherwise. And you know I’m right.

Holden: Everything happening with the Newmans, it’s … it’s intense. You hear about AI this and AI that, but this is … this is atom bomb level stuff.

Audra: Yeah, it’s insane. Wish I’d thought of it. Meanwhile, your little girlfriend runs off to California, leaving her grandpa’s side because she can’t quit me.

Holden: It’s hard to work up much sympathy for Victor since he did the same thing to Cane … among other things.

Audra: Careful. Claire’s Grandpa’s biggest fan.

Holden: Well, then she doesn’t see the big picture.

Audra: It almost sounds like you think she’s making a big mistake, but I thought she was perfect.

Holden: She’s too close to the issue. I can see things clearly. And that man doesn’t give a damn about anyone who doesn’t share his last name.

Audra: Is there something you know, Holden? Something we can use to distract Claire – or better yet, shut her up entirely?

Holden: Taking on Claire isn’t enough for you? You want to go poking around in Victor’s business? How – how have you survived this long with instincts like that?

Audra: It’s not surviving. It’s called thriving.

Audra: So, she listened to you?

Holden: I think so, yes.

Audra: But, you don’t know?

Holden: I said … I think so.

Audra: And I can guarantee you – you don’t know how to think.

Kyle: Audra is the kind of person who’s always looking for someone she can use. If she can’t exploit them now, maybe there will come a time. So she uses her humor and her confidence …

Claire: To lure men into her bed.

Kyle (laughs): It’s nothing personal. It’s just … how she functions.

Claire: I can read Audra. I think that’s probably one of the reasons why she hates me. And, uh, she’s not gonna give up on you anytime soon.

Kyle: Yeah, out of spite or because she hates losing. But as far as an actual relationship, she misses Nate and it makes sense ’cause he’s the only one who ever cared about her. God knows why, but it was real, and she blew it up.

Audra: Look, at the Shadow Room, no matter who you went home with, it was never the same woman twice. Everyone knew that’s just how you rolled. Have a little fun and move on.

Holden: And?

Audra: Except not this time. It’s like that player is gone. The man I see right now … I think he’s falling for Claire.

Holden: She’s done with me.

Audra: Wait – this whole conversation, and you’re just now telling me that?

Holden: You already called me out. You said LA didn’t go the way I wanted, and … you were right.

Audra: Well, I mean, I thought separate hotel rooms, not her sending you on your way. And why now?

Holden: She knew I was holding out on her. Which I am, and so … so she’s done. Which means that I no longer have to spend all my energy lying to her, and she doesn’t have to dig into my past or yours.

Audra: Wow. Well, she’s an idiot. Where’s she gonna find a guy like you?

Holden: Oh, now you want us back together?

Audra. God, no. You should have walked away from her months ago. Wasting your time on that psycho. She never deserved you in the first place. She never gave you the benefit of the doubt, never trusted you, and she was never willing to accept what you were willing to give. So … good riddance. For both of us. Who needs that kind of misery? Anyone who doesn’t believe in you can go straight to hell.

Audra: What’s so special about her anyway? You and Kyle, just falling for those dimples. You can find other dimples without risking jail time

Posted on March 3, 2026March 3, 2026 by TvMegasite Admin

Daytime Soap Opera Short Recaps

Y&R logo

Recap written by Barbara

Claire runs into Kyle at the Society bar; he invites her to join him for a drink – his treat. They talk briefly about her family situation and then about her trip to LA. She tells Kyle that the trip did not provide her with the answer to the secret of what happened with Audra (regarding her connection to the missing art dealer there). Claire indicates that she is suspicious of Audra- she thinks she’s up to something. Kyle informs Claire that Audra is going to work with Sally, so she’ll be less interested in causing trouble and more concerned with her job. He also tells her that there was nothing real between him and Audra. Claire insists that Audra is obsessed with him and is not going to give up on him anytime soon. Kyle counters that as relationships go, the only person she misses is Nate, who was the only one who ever cared about her. Kyle admits that he’s a little jealous that Claire went on a trip to LA with Holden again. Claire mentions that Holden is lying to her and keeping secrets, so she no longer wants to be associated with him.

Audra is at Crimson Lights, finishing up a Spectra-Charles Media business call, when Holden enters. They sit down and discuss his trip with Claire to LA. He assures her that there’s no reason to believe that Claire learned or knows anything else about what happened with them in LA. He tells Audra that Claire isn’t as obsessed with her as she thinks. Audra isn’t convinced. She also lets Holden know that Sally hired her to work at Spectra-Charles Media, so she doesn’t want Claire to mess that up. Holden tells Audra that Claire is done with him because she knows he was holding out on her. Audra says that Claire being out of his life is good riddance for both of them.

At the Newman ranch, Victoria tells Nikki that she is postponing going to see Summer in Italy, but she’s not giving up on the idea entirely. She also expresses worry about how Nick seems off and appears to be in a lot of pain. Nikki is concerned about Nick going after Matt Clark in the condition he’s in. They also discuss Phyllis’s takeover of their family legacy. Victoria is emphatic in her determination to get back everything that belongs to them.

Back at his place, Billy pulls out all the stops with pre-dinner snacks and champagne for Sally. She tries to resist his heartfelt plea to give him a second chance and win her back. When he tells her that he wants them to be open and honest, even about things they aren’t proud of, she opens up about her alcoholic father who was a big dreamer that would do anything to chase his dreams, only to fail repeatedly. She admits that it was difficult for her, growing up with him. She also tells Billy that she feels that he chose Chancellor over her. He counters that wanting Chancellor doesn’t change the way he feels about her, that he loves her and still sees them building a life together. He gets out a pen and writes, “I love you” in her palm, just like she had done with him in Nice, and they kiss.

Y&R Raves and Rants #7

Posted on March 1, 2026March 1, 2026 by TvMegasite Admin

Young and the Restless Opinion Article

Audra (Zuleyka Silver) and Noah (Lucase Adams) on "Young and the Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (screencap)

Article written by Barbara 3/1/26

Here is what I liked and disliked about Y&R for the week of 2/23/2026 (just my humble opinions, no particular order, just random musings)

Raves:

I really, really enjoyed the light, flirty banter between Audra and Noah at the GCAC bar, reminiscing about their time together in London and chatting. Talk about chemistry – these two have it in spades! Noah was energized and grinning; he sparkled when he and Audra were chatting… a stark contrast to how he comes across like a misguided puppy dog chasing after old lady Sienna, who IMHO has no appeal whatsoever. The way Noah looked at Audra during the friendly and flirty part of their conversation, the gleam in his eyes … nice.

Too bad it went south with Noah and Audra after she told him she got a job as co-CEO of Spectra-Charles Media (the re-branded Newman Media, which was stolen from Noah’s Uncle Adam), because I could easily have gotten behind these two as a couple.

Audra, Noah and Kyle, the three of them hanging out at the GCAC bar …

I like Victoria and Nate together. He gets her.

Jack taking digs at Victor had me literally LOL.

I like how they incorporated the actor, Michael Graziadei (Daniel), who plays the guitar in real life into his character’s storyline. Added bonus – his character’s father and quasi-girlfriend both being musicians on-screen and in real life.

Lauren looked beautiful in the dress she was wearing on Friday’s episode. Very pretty haircut and color, too.

So nice to see another pair of women best friends – Phyllis and Lauren. In fact, that same day, they showcased both sets of women BFF’s – Phyllis/Lauren and Sally/Audra.

Rants:

I’m tired of Victor’s evasiveness with Nikki/his wife. It’s getting old and making her come off like a nag (about his continuing to keep her out of the loop regarding his secretive efforts to reclaim Newman Enterprises).

Sienna and Noah are back together. Ugh. She has moved from LA to Genoa City to be with him, and I had to look away from the screen each time they leaned in to kiss. She has not zero, but negative appeal. I cannot stand the way she talks and looks. Must admit, I enjoyed seeing the frown on Nick’s face when Sienna mentioned that she decided to live in Genoa City and be with his son.

Detective Cardboard, oops, Detective Burrow, was back on the scene, telling Nick, Sharon, Noah and Sienna that he can’t do anything to help them with Matt being released from jail and out on the loose, since Matt was let go legally, on a technicality. Fine with me, because I’d much rather watch Nick and the Newmans deal with Matt than Detective Useless. I couldn’t believe what they had him say – he appeared to be addressing Nick when he said that although he would normally caution against taking the law into his (referring to Nick) own hand, in this case, it might be his (Nick’s) only choice. What a waste of air space this character is and the actor who plays him is a dud. Pair the detective with Sienna and send them back to LA together.

The dress Phyllis wore for her first day in her office at her newly acquired Newman Enterprises was beautiful, but it wasn’t appropriate for a C-Suite. (It looked perfect on her at the GCAC dining room, where Lauren took her for a fancy, celebratory breakfast.)

Billy (Jason Thompson), Lauren (Tracey E. Bregman) and Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) of "Young and The Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (screencap)

Best Lines provided by Barbara

Lauren: Wow. I’m not sure I’m ever going to get used to the sight of you behind Victor Newman’s desk.

Phyllis: Well, this is my desk now. It’s mine. And if you’ve come to, uh, read me the riot act, really, you can leave.

Lauren: Now, what on earth would I do that for?

Phyllis: I don’t know. Because you’re empty handed. You don’t have flowers or champagne or anything. Et tu, Brute?

Lauren: Oh, we’re quoting The Bard, now?

Phyllis: Well, yeah. I mean, Victor quoted Shakespeare, so I figure I can do whatever I want. But really, I – I’m so tired of character assassinations by people who are triggered by my success. So …

Lauren: Well, then … let me rewrite Julius Caesar for you. I have not come to bury you. I have come to praise you.

Phyllis (sitting with Lauren in the GCAC dining room, shouting): Breakfast for everyone! Breakfast on me. (Lowers voice) They can eat their hearts out.

Lauren: (laughs)

Billy: That sounds great. I’ll take a side of bacon.

Lauren: Oh. Hello, Billy.

Phyllis: You look happy, Billy.

Billy: Well, I’m just happy to see you two beautiful women here together, although I am surprised that you’re here together.

Lauren: Why? We’ve been friends forever.

Billy: Yeah, I know, but you’re also married to Michael Baldwin, so the fact that you are here together could mean one of two things. You’re either in the process of chastising her for the coup that she just pulled off, or maybe you’re actually happy that she was the one that screwed Victor over because of the amount of times that he screwed Michael over in the past. She’s the one to make it happen. Maybe you’re okay with that.

Phyllis: Lauren is the only one who’s not passing judgment on me.

Billy: Hey, now, I was on board from the get-go.

Lauren: Well, of course you were all for it. Everybody knows you hate Victor Newman and probably jumped at the chance to be part of his demise.

Billy: Honestly, I had nothing to do with it. I just happened to be at the right place at the right time.

Billy: So this is just the two of you being gal pals? I’m supposed to believe you’re not using your decades-long friendship to try and convince Phyllis that she made a mistake?

Lauren: Oh. That’s a page out of your playbook, Billy, not mine. I’m not that devious. Especially with my friends. And Phyllis is a very important friend to me, whether you believe it or not.

Phyllis: Phyllis is right here.

Billy: I’m very much aware of that. I would say proceed with caution where your friends and enemies are concerned because I’m sure they’re coming at you at all angles. Don’t cave under the pressure. Don’t let anyone convince you you don’t deserve this. You’ve come way too far to have someone talk you out of your success now. Good to see you.

Audra: Sharing so much as a stick of gum with him is a huge mistake and something you should avoid at all costs.

Sally: Okay, you make it sound like I lose all sense of myself when I’m around him.

Audra: This so-called dinner can only go one of two ways. Either he convinces you to get back with him, and you’ll end up back on that roller coaster you swore you were done riding. Or you’ll stand your ground, in which case he won’t take no for an answer. And if that happens, you two adults could end up being anything but civil.

Sally: There’s no way I’m letting Billy talk me into getting back together with him, okay? I made it very clear to him, and now to you, I am moving forward.

Phyllis: This is the way I see it. This is my last chance, Lauren. This is quite possibly my only chance to change my life. For the better. Do you understand what I’m saying? Maybe do something good in the world. It’s incredible to me that I am the villain and the Newmans are the victims in my dastardly deeds. That’s how people see it. The Newman family, no matter what crisis befalls them, they come out on top. I mean, I can’t believe doing what I did has affected my friends and family the way it has, that they wanna alienate me. These are the same people who chastised me for going toe to toe with Victor Newman and winning, and I won – I won, Lauren. Nobody has been able to do that. And I did it. But somehow I’m alone because of it. I’m the town pariah? I am? Really? Listen, if that means I have to go solo, fine. If that’s my only option, so be it – I don’t care.

Lauren: I’m – I’m so sorry, and if there’s anything … that I can do to help you, just you say the word, okay?

Phyllis: Maybe there is.

Lauren: Name it.

Phyllis: Come work for me.

Lauren: I’m so flattered and, uh, touched by the offer. I – You know, I think I’m content where I am right now.

Phyllis: Mm. Is that really contentment that you feel?

Lauren: Well, as opposed to what?

Phyllis: As opposed to complacency, maybe? You know, to be honest, you’re due for an adventure, you know, something besides picking out wedding dresses for the Bug, you know, while beautiful, but still, putting together bachelorette parties. You’re better than that. Come work for me. Just think about it just a bit. But don’t let Michael talk you out of this, please. But imagine us together. We could take over the world.

Victor (Eric Braeden) on "The Young and The Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (screencap)

Best Lines provided by Barbara

Victoria (to her father/Victor): Can I ask you exactly what is it that you object to? Do you think it’s not gonna work, or are you upset that I’m willingly not gonna sit and watch you fix everything?

Phyllis: You know what? I’m done. I’m done. I’m going to the door. Press your little button thingy, and tell Shrek to get out of the way.

Cane: You are not going anywhere until I get what I want.

Phyllis: It’s about love. It was all about love. Profound.

Cane: I can’t give up on – on three people that I love most in my life. I just can’t. All that time I didn’t know where Lily and my kids were … and I was fearing for their safety … I realized that … the only time I’ve ever felt whole was when we were together. As a family. When we were happy. I felt like the richest, smartest, most powerful man in the world when my kids would come to me and ask for advice. Or support. I miss hugging them. I miss hearing them tell me they love me.

Phyllis: I get it. It’s about love, right?

Cane: Family is everything. Love is everything. And there’s no amount of … power or wealth or even vindication that’s worth losing all of that. Is there, Phyllis?

Victor (to Victoria): Sweetheart, I can assure you, if Matt Clark shows his damn face again, he’ll sign his own death warrant.

Sharon: The problem is, thinking that Matt would want to avoid another confrontation – that’s rational. But Matt is not rational. Nick and I know. He thrives on hand-to-hand combat.

Nick: Sharon’s right. It might take years. It might take decades. This guy always comes back.

Sharon: And if his actions so far are any indication, this go-round, he’s not wasting any time.

Sienna: Look, I really wanna believe that Matt is gonna play it safe, and he’s gonna go back to hiding under that rock that he slithered out from under, but … I think that Sharon’s right. And honestly, I don’t think I’ve got the stomach to handle another showdown with that despicable man.

Sharon: Take that feeling and multiply it tenfold, and that’s about scratching the surface of how Nick and I feel.

Detective Burrow: I don’t know. Matt got extremely lucky getting his case thrown out. You really think he’s stupid enough to return to the scene of the crime, do something to get himself locked up again?

Noah: I’ve gotta think that he’d think twice before taking that risk.

Nick: You all need to stop assuming that this guy is going to make the smart move. He’s not gonna do that. It’s not who he is. He’s a relentless psycho. He will be back. It’s just a matter of when.

Cane: Don’t you agree, Phyllis, that … all the power and wealth in the world isn’t worth it if you lose the only people you love in this life?

Phyllis: Yeah. Love and family are the only things that matter, right? You sound like Victor Newman. Ohh. Except he’s full of hot air and, um, look at how unhinged he is by – by losing all the power and money he could ever want.

Nate (Sean Dominic) and Victoria (Amelia Heinle) on "Young and the Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (screencap)

Best Lines provided by Barbara

Victoria: I’m the lucky one. My favorite drink waiting for me.

Nate: You know, I was seriously considering peppermint hot chocolate, but you sounded like you needed some fortification.

Victoria (takes a sip from a glass of red wine): You’re a wise man.

Jack: Victor! How’s that short game coming along these days?

Victor (chuckling): I don’t have time for this.

Jack: I haven’t seen you in awhile – not that I’ve missed you. I just assumed you’d flown south with the rest of the snowbirds to enjoy the links, you know, the fresh air, the ocean breezes.

Victor (chuckling): Let me ask you something, Jack. Have you lost your mind? I mean … you seem to be more of a blithering idiot than before.

Jack: Oh, golf’s not your game? Maybe you should try pickleball. I mean you got a lotta time on your hands now that you’ve lost Newman Enterprises. Tell me … how’s it feel to be retired?

Victor: I’ll leave the game playing to you and that punk brother of yours.

Jack: Good luck filling your day. Uh … shuffleboard may be more your game. (leaves)

Nikki: What was that all about?

Victor: Jack Abbott blowing smoke.

Jack: I live to make you happy.

Diane: Hmm. Well, then, can you make Victor and Nikki disappear?

Jack: Well I, for one, am very happy that Victor has crawled out from whatever rock he climbed under. That way I can rub salt in his self-inflicted wounds and, to tell the truth, I really like doing it.

Diane: I know you’re not one to take pleasure in other people’s misfortunes.

Jack: But in Victor’s case, I’m willing to make an exception. No, I enjoy watching him toppled from his self-made throne, especially since that fall happened through the same means he intended to use to destroy me.

Diane: Well, as long as he stays down this time. That man has more lives than a cat.

Jack: That is the rub, isn’t it?

Diane: Yeah.

Jack: Every time he’s down, no matter how hopeless, he seems to get back up, and I don’t know… better positioned than when it all started.

Diane: Well, it’s beyond infuriating.

Jack: Yeah. I would admire that quality in anyone else. In Victor, I find it nauseating.

Diane: It’s just seeing Victor and Nikki out and about in a public place looking so satisfied. I can’t — I can’t help but be suspicious.

Jack: It’s a weak attempt to maintain appearances. Victor is never going to admit defeat. In fact, we’ll probably bury that bastard with that “never say die” look on his face.

Nikki (standing in front of the long mirror in the GCAC ladies’ room, next to Diane, as the two women freshen their make-up): You followed me in here for a reason, so why don’t you just say what you wanna say?

Diane: Fine. I want you to stop using the tragedy your husband brought on you and your family as a way to score sympathy points with mine. Now, Jack might offer you some compassion because he’s kind and decent and obviously patient, but you really need to find another shoulder to cry on.

Nikki: Mm. Why are you so threatened?

Diane: Oh. I’m not threatened. I’m just tired of constantly finding poor, sniveling Nikki every time I turn around.

Nikki: Of course you feel threatened, Diane. Jack and I have been very close for a very long time, and I haven’t put him through a fraction of the agony you have over the years, which makes me think maybe you have serious doubts that you are capable of holding onto a man that you don’t deserve.

Nikki: I’m not the one who’s so insecure I need to accost someone in the ladies’ room.

Diane: Oh, I’m just freshening up. But it wouldn’t be a bad idea for you to stay away from my husband.

Nikki: Ah, well, that will never happen because Jack and I share a very special bond, something that you don’t understand or ever could.

Diane: No, it could happen if you would stop playing “damsel in distress” at every turn.

Nikki: I don’t go looking for sympathy from my dear friend. He just gives it to me.

Diane: (scoffs)

Nikki: That’s what friends do, but you wouldn’t know anything about that because you don’t have any. Oh. And that lip color? Not one of Jabot’s best. (exits)

Nate: I’m just trying to minimize that pain by encouraging you to think of other ventures that might give you equal satisfaction.

Victoria (laughs): Such as?

Nate: I don’t know, um … maybe you have an idea of starting your own company? Or maybe you wanna go in a completely different direction. Have you … seen yourself as a professor? Taking after Cole?

Victoria: What? In a classroom full of students teaching (laughs) Business 101? No. No, thank you.

Nate: Okay, uh, maybe, I don’t know, what did you wanna be when you were a kid?

Victoria: A CEO.

Nate: Oh. What?

Victoria: Yeah.

Nate: Uh, say, what about a dancer?

Victoria: Mm. Two left feet.

Nate: A singer?

Victoria: Tone deaf. Don’t say cook, either, because you know I can’t cook. I can bake chocolate chip cookies, but that’s baking.

Nate: You win for now. I’m just trying to open your mind to other possibilities.

Victoria: Understood. And I appreciate that. But right now, I’m focusing all of my energy on succeeding. I want Newman Enterprises back, and I’m gonna get it.

Jack: Oh, would you look at that. The façade has already crumbled. I guess Victor got some bad news. (chuckling) Couldn’t happen to a more deserving son of a bitch.

Noah (Lucas and Adams) and Audra (Zuleyka Silver) on "Young and The Restless" on CBS/Paramount+ (from screencap)

Best Lines provided by Barbara

Audra: So, are you back in Genoa City for good?

Noah: Ooh, that is a question I don’t have an answer for. My family’s going through a lot. I’m here to support them. And once everything gets back to our version of normal, I’ll figure it out then.

Audra: You and umbrellas. How many did you lose? Like a dozen? More? Every single time it rained, you’d start with an umbrella in hand, but somehow, by the end of the day, you just managed to lose it.

Noah: Yeah. I guess I always thought of them as a single use kind of thing, you know? Once the sun came out, what was the point?

Victoria: I’m going to use Summer’s unhappiness against Phyllis.

Nick: Well, you’re gonna have a lot to work with.

Victoria: That’s it? That’s all you got?

Nick: Yeah.

Victoria. Okay, um, who are you … and what did you do with my brother?

Audra: Maybe I just like Champagne.

Noah: Well, that would be new for you. At least from what I remember, and when we were together in London, you only drank vodka, and it had to be ice cold.

Audra: Oh, good memory.

Noah: Yeah, hard to forget. You took me to a bar that the walls were literally frozen so we could enjoy our shots in sub-zero temps. Yeah, I nearly froze everything off that night.

Audra: Yeah, well, I don’t remember you complaining at the time.

Noah: I was having too much fun.

Audra: You know, I think you liked it a little because you ended up moving to a place that gets even colder than that.

Audra: Now, the only toasts I believe in are the ones I make to myself. (Takes a sip of champagne) To me.

Kyle (to Noah): I heard you were back. It’s good to see you. And the accident – I was actually in LA when it happened.

Noah: Oh, you were? What brought you to LA?

Audra: He was stalking his ex.

Kyle: Business.

Kyle: How’s Nick doing? How are you doing? You look great considering.

Noah: I’m back to 100%. My dad’s, you know, on the mend, getting better every day.

Kyle: Hey, hey, cheers to that. (Looks over at Audra) You gonna sit this one out?

Audra: Feel free to enjoy your drink somewhere else.

Noah: So you have no problem with my family being destroyed?

Kyle: Well, what’s happening to Victor is exactly what he swore he was gonna do to my family. And it’s not like he hasn’t threatened or hurt half this town, so … yeah, I’m good.

Noah: Yeah. This isn’t just Victor being affected.

Kyle: Oh, you mean his little attack dog Adam? Again, no tears.

Noah: Look, I know my grandfather has stepped on more than a few toes.

Audra: You think?

Kyle: That’s the understatement of the century.

Audra: It’s so quaint-sounding, like a bad dance partner.

Audra: The only crime here was that it took so long for karma to kick in. Victor and Adam have gotten exactly what they deserve.

Kyle: Yeah, those two being knocked down to size has been a long time coming. The number of people in this town that would celebrate … there might even be a parade.

Kyle: Just saying that Victor and Adam had it coming, and it’s poetic that Billy helped light the torch.

Noah: So no big deal that the entire family’s been gutted, my grandfather’s lost his life’s work, my family’s lost their legacy?

Kyle: Eh, Nikki can sell some jewelry. The Newmans will be dandy.

Audra: (in a hushed tone, talking to Kyle, quoting Kyle’s words back to him): “Nikki can sell some jewelry”?!

Kyle (laughs): Too far?

Audra: Classic.

Audra: Weird.

Kyle: What?

Audra: It’s almost like we’re on the same side.

Interview with the cast of “The Gray House”

Posted on February 26, 2026 by TvMegasite Admin

TV Interview!

Banner for "The Gray House" on Prime

Interview with Daisy Head, Amethyst Davis, Hannah James, Rob Morrow, Robert Knepper, Christopher McDonald, Sam Trammell, and Keith David of “The Gray House” on Prime by Suzanne 2/4/26

I really enjoyed speaking with the actors from this entertaining miniseries. Head, Davis and James star in this story, which focuses on strong women in Richmond, Virginia, before the Civil War as they fight for freedom and against bigotry and misogyny of all kinds. Morrow plays a Jewish lawyer/senator; McDonald plays a Pinkerton spy; Trammell plays Jefferson Davids; and David is an eloquent pastor who travels around, inspiring blacks. It’s a large, talented cast.

I loved watching Rob Morrow in his previous roles, especially “Northern Exposure” and “Numb3rs.” Sam Trammel was one of my favorites in “True Blood.” Christopher McDonald and Keith David are TV/movie legends that I’ve interviewed a few times before. I’m very happy to interview with the women, who lead this action-packed miniseries. I wish I could have a longer interview with Daisy Head, but it would probably be embarrassing because her father is Anthony Head, whom I adored so much in “Buffy the Vampire Slayer!” 🙂 I hope you enjoy it! It begins today, Feb. 26, on Prime.
