Reylynn Caster is a hit as Faith Newman on 'The Young and the Restless'
Characters who are recast on daytime drama shows are usually not popular with the fans or the news media. They are usually compared to their predecessors and held to higher standards of performance. Only a very few make the roles their own and win over a majority of the viewing audience. Reylnn Recastner is breaking out of that mold now that she has been cast as Faith Newman on The Young and the Restless. Viewers as well as soap spoilers agree that she is the ideal choice to replace Alyvia Lind who had the role for a decade.

Are Lily and Billy about to split on 'The Young and the Restless'?
When Billy and Lily first began dating, many fans of The Young and the Restless were hopeful. It seemed as though Billy Abbott was changing for the better and even Victoria noticed. Lily appeared to be bringing out the best in him and allowed him to be himself without judgment. Now, however, things are shifting and Ms. Winters/Ashby is quickly following in the footsteps of her predecessor.

Elijah Crowe battles Sonny on 'General Hospital'
On General Hospital Sonny Corinthos always has enemies lurking who want to take him down. Even now that he has lost his memory and does not recall his former life he has someone who wants him out of the picture. Trouble has now found the coffee distributor in Nixon Falls and Sonny as Mike seems to have a worthy opponent in Elijah Crowe who is unaware of his true identity. I think of someone deciding to do battle with mild-mannered Clark Kent because they don't know he is really Superman.

What it means when your cat goes belly up.
In the song When Doves Cry by Prince, there is a line where he sings” Animals strike curious poses.” I had a lot of cats when I was a teenager but they were all outdoor kitties except for one. For this reason, I did not pay attention to certain signals that my felines were giving me. I observed them sleeping in off positions at times but did not give it much thought. Basically what I remember is that when they saw me they came running and meowing because they knew I was the one who would feed them.

'General Hospital' fans say the show is repeating Shiloh mistake with Cyrus
Sometimes you have to wonder if Frank Valenti and his team of General Hospital writers are locked in an alternate universe. At a time when ratings are down and the coronavirus has caused so much damage, you would think they would come up with plots that the viewers enjoy. Instead, they recycle plots that fans have expressed they do not like as if the second and third time around things will change. General Hospital lovers are tired of baby swaps, ELQ takeovers, and evil doers running amuck. Fans were begging for the storyline with Shiloh Archer to come to an end and now are doing the same with Cyrus Renaut.

Stuck!!!
There are now two days left in the No Regrets challenge and I have bared my soul and let the readers in on numerous cringe-worthy moments in my life. Another one just came to mind so here I am sharing yet again. This embarrassing situation came in 2011 after a faulty water heater began leaking. It took a while for us to figure out what was going on because there was thick carpet on most of the floors in the house. The water must have been leaking onto the floorboards without our knowledge and we assume that it shorted out the ground wire because one day out lights simply went out.

The downside to succeeding on Vocal
I grew up shy and was afraid to speak my mind. As I aged and life happened I turned into a whistleblower of sorts. I enjoy bringing uncomfortable issues to the forefront so they can be pondered and today I have a new one concerning Vocal.media. My mother told me that I liked to rain on people’s parades but she did not understand my views when I wrote for a local newspaper. When I see an injustice I enjoy bringing it to the forefront so it can be tackled.
