Great podcast as usual!

I have to agree with most of you that Peter Bergman gave a great performance this week, but let me say this Billy Miller is a future star of Y&R! I could feel his pain when Jack was yelling at him. You could tell that he regreted hurting Jack. I had started to wear thin on Billy Miller's Billy but he roped me back in as a fan. He is a strong young actor on the show and one of the best recasts this show has done in a while. He is my performer of the week!

My honorable mentions would be Tricia Cast and Jess Walton. I like the way they play off of each other. I think Nina is the only one that can get Jill told with just a single one line zinger! I am so happy Nina is back. Jess Walton is just great everytime. Can I just say again that I am happy she resigned with the show!

I also agree with J Bernard on Drew Garrett as Michael. I don't watch GH on a regular but I caught a weeks worth of episodes the week before memorial day and that boy is good. Gosh I wish Y&R could have got him for the role of Noah Newman.

Like AMC throw out BM and EH and now they are killing it on Y&R. I am loving Billy Abbott and Jack got what he deserves, even though Sharon is also guilty of sleeping with Billy also and Nick and whoever she sees, LOL.

I really hope that it is indeed the writing that is causing Don Diamont to portray this character as snarky Brad in every single scene. Considering the B&B writers don't seem to know how to create three-dimensional characters anymore, I'm not sure we'll ever see Don Diamont do as well as he did on Y&R. Sad.

I totally agree about Peter Bergman and Billy Miller as being outstanding, but honestly, Joshua Morrow gets my dishonorable mention. The man's looks couldn't compensate for his acting this week when all he did was mutter along while Michelle Stafford absolutely tore those scenes up. This guy needs to get it together, and I know I'm not the only poster that has said this, but goodness gracious!

Yeah, he is just playing the same character that he was playing over on Y&R. Why didn't they just have him move to LA and mix it up with the Forresters? I just not feeling it and I am so sick of the incestuous relationships that I turn off B&B until Brad is fired. The family can get rid of him and put someone who wants to save this show.

Jamey, your comments is funny, "I take the Herpes commercial before going on B&B," that is sad but true. Brad Bell destroy any semblance of the heart and fun of B&B and made all the characters unrecognizable and hard to root for any of them.

I was making a preemptive strike. I thought you said you'd give one. HA!  :-P

I thought Mandy bruno was good but was she supposed to give off the bat shit crazy vibe? I'm guessing not.

Catlin Van Zandt is awful, I'm starting to think that Bill and Lizzies horrified reactions had nothing to do with Ashlee's ideas for the wedding but they were in fact Marcy and Danny's horrified reactions to Caitlins acting.

Zac Conroy is freaking awesome though.
