Additional Comments: Karen has been loyal to him, Neil doesn't deserve her. THere he was BEGGING Tyra to stay even after the singing kid leaves (so the two would be alone in the house). Karen has to watch this and later Neil (after Karen wants to be alone with him at his place), moans how EMPTY it will be with Tyra and Singing Kid gone. What a nerve the man has! Karen needs to ditch him.

KSJ just really aint that interesting as a character anymore IMO. Maybe some of you guys were right...without Dru, they might as well kill off Neil too. It's at the point where it's not entertaining.

I think we need to slide Paul's nickname "Clueless" on over to Neil. [It is Paul the board refers to as clueless isn't it? Maybe I'm clueless?] LOL

Oldtimer, you're right... it's Paul that's often referred to as 'Clueless'. I definitely agree that Neil is in the running to deserve that name right now more than Paul! eom/faysie

I thought it was Nick . . . as in Nicklueless Newman

My post above titled Neil and Tyra is about this subject. I wrote I thought Karen ought to dump Neil--to his amazement. I don't want to see Karen go --so how about Paul. I think we're supposed to forget the Christine and Paul episode of long ago but right now he seems to be looking after Nikki but her heart will always belong to Victor. So Karen should dump Neil. He doesn't deserve her and I think Paul would be a good one for her.

I can't believe he thought she should stay in GC when her daughter is moving half way across the country. That was a dumb statement when he said "She'll be staying in a dorm and you will only see her on weekends." I bet the school will let Ana see her mom whenever she wants as long as it isn't during school hours. And even if she can only see her on weekends, that will happen every weekend if Tyra is living in NH or where ever she is going. If she is in GC I doubt she could afford to fly there that often. Neil is acting like Tyra is sending an 18 year off to college instead of a little girl going to boarding school. Neil was acting selfish as far as I am concerned.

No kidding. The kid is only 11 years old and is dealing with something that's very traumatic to her. And Kneel expects Tyra to just ship her off and see her on holidays? Get over yerself, Kneel. ~i&b

After all of his little speeches about 'famiy coming first' etc. his argument with Tyra about staying in G.C. sure seemed ridiculous! It was MUCH more logical for her to want to move with Ana and be there for her. Neil is so self-centred that he couldn't even see that. eom/faysie

it's almost like Neil is being purposely cold to Karen, like maybe he wants her to leave. I wish she would. Neil is the biggest wet blanket on the show (next to Devon). Neither one of them is any fun and they're both so full of themselves. Karen is cute and seems like she enjoys a good time. With Neil, there's always some family problem that he shoves down her throat like he and his kids are so important. KAREN, LEAVE NOW.

Neil has been a real jerk lately. I sure hate to see Karen leave. I was hoping she was back to stay. I hate the way TPTB jerk people around.

Neil is ridiculous! He can't be that dumb not to notice his ''girlfriend'' Karen is in the same room while he's acting all depressed over these instant relatives. The whole scene was silly. Devon and the cherub holding each other with tears streaming down their faces. THE DON'T EVEN KNOW EACH OTHER. Come on writers, I accept suspending belief to a point but today's show ???

Well, if the spoilers are correct, Karen will be going back to NY. Sorry, if I spoiled it for some, but, I thought it would make alot of people happy that Karen will be dumping Neil, which she should have for a long time now!!

To think he came to NY to beg her to come back, and she did so after alot of trepidation, only to have his relationship with Tyra, shoved down her throat.

I hate Kneel these days, and to say that he is a pompous a&&, is an understatement.

I'll hate to see Karen go. I wish they would keep her and give her a new stroy line or love interest.

Karen should have never come back to him. She doesn't need to be treated in this manner. Like some have posted above, maybe Paul? Lizz
