Young and the Restless

In Los Angeles, we find out that Finn “has no secrets.”

That “I have no secrets” stuff always raises red flags for me. Everyone has secrets.

Bold and Beautiful
season 34 episode 209

The Young and the Restless on episode 58 of the 48th season features an unexpectedly common honeymoon, which is refreshing from that of people who are generally known for staying at 5-star hotels only.

#YR
season 48, episode 58

The program features outstanding performances in particular from Sasha Calle, Christel Khalil and Tricia Cast. Your outstanding acting is much appreciated!

On today’s episode, these were the issues:

  • Can gambling addicts gamble safely?
  • Should you believe a partner whose family members from traffickers?
  • Should you believe stalking debt collectors?
  • Is finding one’s biological father a helpful thing for yourself if the results of that if found can lead to moderate satisfaction to the curiosity of one where the truth could hurt more than help?

Tuesday’s #YR featured behavior from a returning Jeffrey Todd Hellstrom that has we returning fans quite confused.

On the Nick and Sharon and biological children front, their natural daughter Mariah decides to invite dad Nicholas for a surprise dinner “out of the blue.”

In English, the phrase out of the implies an idea or action that comes from a motivation especially unexpected or unrelated to the activities people.

Many people are under the mistaken idea that people who develop alcohol problems are the ones show crazy and silly behavior.

It is a more likely case that those who fall into alcohol problems are those people for home alcohol works very well on today’s Young and the restless Nikki Newman had a talk with her grandson Reed Hellström recognizing that a she once used alcohol to her advantage to help her career as a dancer, Reed Hellström is using alcohol to his advantage as a shy person.

He has his first love, his parents are divorcing, he is a sensitive musician, from a powerful family and suffers from shyness. Surprise: alcohol, in the short-term, handles every one of those symptoms perfectly. In the long run, the Chinese aphorism rules: “First the person takes the drink, then the drink takes a drink, then the drink takes the person” – UNLESS one can have an empathetic wise grandmother, here played as usual to perfection by the fantastic Melody Thomas Scott with newcomer Tristan Lake Leabu as Reed.

The return of Thad Luckinbill as Jeffrey Todd (J.T.) Hellstrom has been a spark for the storyline. This American actor is *far* more experienced, believable, likable yet powerful as compared to when he left the show to take other roles. He’ll leave again, return again. The timing? Who knows?! That is the beauty of a DAILY daytime drama.

Today the show was down-to-earth.  “The alcoholic is *not* someone who cannot control their drinking – the alcoholic is someone who *must* control their drinking.” – STANLEY GITLOW, M.D., addiction expert
