Members Soapsuds Posted March 17, 2013 Members Share Posted March 17, 2013 Eh...B&B is a better soap than Y&R right now. I didnt even watch Y&R and I was off from work....LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 17, 2013 Members Share Posted March 17, 2013 I don't care so much about which soap is better as I do about some outrage over questioning the brilliance of Brad Bell. This is a man who spent years trying to get people to root for Ridge to nail a girl he raised as his biological daughter for a good portion of her life.

Members chicklitsandfantasies Posted March 17, 2013 Members Share Posted March 17, 2013 I really hate Taylor now. She's become another Brooke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted March 17, 2013 Members Share Posted March 17, 2013 Eh...I've already given up all hope with Y&R being the show it use to be. The once class soap is just a generic soap opera. I wouldn't care if they cancelled Y&R. Really Steve Burton on Y&R?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SOAPSFOREVER Posted March 17, 2013 Members Share Posted March 17, 2013 Storm's suicide was hardly a story glorifying suicide. It was about a deeply troubled, guilt-ridden man who shot his sister, and from his deep guilt and remorse took his own life so she could live. The show wasn't saying suicide is noble. That was my take anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JONNYSBRO Posted March 17, 2013 Members Share Posted March 17, 2013 Oh Jill I gotta give her credit the woman knows how to give the right answers. Quite the politician isn't she? She's helming the number 1 soap and she still has ego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 17, 2013 Members Share Posted March 17, 2013 If you have a mentally ill man who is somehow redeemed by killing himself to give his sister a reason to live, that's saying suicide is noble. The story was also rushed and littered with pretentious nonsense like Katie's underwater dreams where he was wearing Joker makeup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EastMA2 Posted March 18, 2013 Members Share Posted March 18, 2013 What I LOVE about JFP is that she knows what is going on. She couldn't care LESS! Go Jill! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SOAPSFOREVER Posted March 18, 2013 Members Share Posted March 18, 2013 I don't think anyone said Brad Bell was "brilliant", nor were they expressing "outrage" over anyone questioning it. I stated he had been a very successful head writer and EP. The current ratings seem to back this up. He's had his ups and down, but there must be something about his storytelling that keeps people watching. It's the number one soap worldwide and a consistent number two in the States. Jill said she doesn't think it's possible to combine the two roles successfully. I pointed out that it is and has been. Maybe she should care more given all the shows she's been fired from. She only has the EP position at Y&R because she's a friend of Steve Kent's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 18, 2013 Members Share Posted March 18, 2013 If you think Brad as a headwriter has been a reason for the ratings. I'd say it's down more to other people, and he mostly has a title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members y&r_fan Posted March 18, 2013 Members Share Posted March 18, 2013 Plus, B&B is only a half hour show so I imagine the work load would be significantly less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members chicklitsandfantasies Posted March 18, 2013 Members Share Posted March 18, 2013 It also only tapes half the year. And without commercials it's only 20 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
