Yeah, they're living in some kind of parallel universe with most of these choices. To each one's own, but B&B is the worst it has been in years in almost every way.

 

But I feel bad for those who have to cover this genre. I can't really think of many "bests" to speak of for this year on any show.

I won't dispute that Sheila's return was a big surprise on many levels. That was a huge secret to keep under wraps. But the execution of it was soooo poor. It had little impact at all. And the show itself basically treats her as a day player waitress these days, so it's easy to forget the surprise.

 

In typical Brad Bell fashion, he took a big splashy opportunity (like Maya coming out as transgender) and totally wasted it due to his chronic ADD and lack of discipline.

Yes B&B was the worst show of the year, but  yes Sheila's return was pleasing considering it appeared we were set up to have crazy Quinn vs. crazy Katie over Eric. The show finally acknowledging it's Spectra history was good and we finally saw James and Sheila interact again! But overall, the show has just been a joke this year, the Avant PSA family feud story that aired in June was a DISASTER, Brooke still getting 1994 era storylines, Bill and his penis skyscraper,  Wyatt and Katie pairing, and wasting Rick, Maya, Thomas, Caroline and more recently Bill/Steffy the show has really devolved into Bradley's worst tendencies gone haywire.

I'll give you that -- what they did with the return colors the perception of the surprise.

 

Nevertheless, this list points out a lot of things I've seen many here constantly say. So, while we're at it, let's point out some things this list did get right:

 

Biggest Waste of Screen Time - The Sex Ring (Y&R)
Best Use of History - The Spectras (B&B)

Most Rejuvenated Family - The Abbotts (Y&R)
Most Rejuvenated Character - Lucas (DAYS)

Worst Couple - Chad & Gabi (DAYS)

Worst Triangle - Phyllis/Billy/Victoria (Y&R)

Biggest Waste of Talent Part II -  Jacob Young & Karla Mosley (B&B)
Most Improved Show - DAYS

 

and more. Let's not get crazy here!

Sheila's return could have been so much better. I still think it was a mistake to pit her against Quinn. Like it happened, she should have exposed Quinn and Ridge and then set her sights on vulnerable Eric. So far so good. But then it should have been Brooke that took up the fight against her, thereby stepping into the role of Forrester matriarch that she should have transitioned to after Stephanie's death. Sheila and Brooke also have a history which then could be used. That would have been far more interesting than Sheila vs Quinn.

THANK YOU!!!!!

 

 I actually agree with this list for the most part EXCEPT for Best Show. As A WHOLE, I can see why B&B would go there, but at the same time it has declined since...summer?

 

So...it's been revealed that Project 6 IS Jason? If not it's shady to use 'Jason' for BM.
