B&B: April 2026 Discussion Thread

I loved so much about B&B this week. I really enjoyed the Taylor/Deacon/Sheila drama. I actually felt sorry for Sheila. I truly wished Rebecca Budig was playing a different character. She's just not Taylor to me and it's been what two years now???
I hated every scene Ridge was in. I can't stand him.
I'm also looking forward to next weeks scenes with Will/RJ and Brooke/Katie. Brad Bell has multiple stories going on and I love it. I hope it continues.

I finished up with this week's episodes and I must say, it was a really strong week. The scenes with June and Samantha, Lynette upping the ante with her blackmail towards Hayley, Leslie vs. Darlene, love in the afternoon with Martin & Smitty and my favorite, the argument between Nicole and Vanessa.
Of course the Scooby Doo gang (Jacob/Smitty/Grayson) is laughable but I still find it entertaining.
I hope we get a renewal announcement this week regarding the shows future (multi-year renewal 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾).

I dont know what to tell you or what you expect then. I dont think there was a big moment that caused them to fall out. From we can tell they've always been at odds at least going back to his teen years

as for Joey, he didnt control or pass judgement on Izaiah. He gave him the autonomy to explore things for himself. He saw something in him and when he realized he could be the cause of ruining his life by using him in his business, he encouraged him to take a different path which is something Elon was not doing. He wanted him in some aspect of law enforcement and looked down upon him bc he was wasting his life getting mixed up with the wrong crowd, being a criminal which directly putting them in opposition as a family of law enforcements. Elon likely also resented the shame he'd put him in as the Chief of Police to have a hoodlum son that could easily end up in jail and knowing his personality, he said things that cant easily be taken back

I just hope it’s not as Chloe though.
I don’t want Nadia Bjorlin recast.
I love that idea. You could get plenty of storyline out of a messy quad, especially since the way Chloe and Xander broke up felt so sudden and abrupt.
And the same could be said for Theresa, who got another sudden and abrupt exit. There’s still plenty of story left, and it would weave in Stephanie and Alex as well.
Plus, either of them would be better for Xander than Gwen 😂😂

Taglines!

Rulla's was so basic, generic and BORING. That could have been used on anyone. The key to a good tagline is that it needs to be personalized to you and your life. Everyone got the assignmen but her
Overall they were alright for a S1. No real standouts that will go down as one of the best every. My favorite was probably Jo-Ellen, followed by Alicia
Also not a fan of this theme song. Its mixing more pizzazz from what I saw

I hear you, but I need more than "clashing personalities," especially because we've been told that white man Joey saved Izaiah.
"They just don't get along" is not enough for me.

If that ad was done in June 1980, Vanessa had just started on the show a mere few weeks before so I could understand her not being in the ad. Kelly/Morgan because they were the new young love story while Holly had just come off an intense year dealing with the rape, being in prison for 'killing' Roger, and the Santa Domingo story so her name carried weight even though it was close to her leaving. I do agree that Hope should have been included in the ad.

I'm pretty sure she started around March 1980? I would guess she wasn't included but JWS and Kristen were because Kelly and Morgan were Marland's plan to be GL's answer to Scottie/Laura from GH. They were major with a major planned storyline. He didn't seem to have a major storyline in mind for Maeve--besides tormenting Ross and vamping most of the men in town.
For a sort-off villainous character, Vanessa was very reactive when Marland wrote her. She went after Ross because she couldn't imagine him really being interested in Evie. She became enemies with Quint and Nola because she couldn't stand the idea of not being Daddy's only child.
I've never understood why, when he had this FABULOUS actress, playing someone who had all the makings of a FABULOUS character, he never gave her a strong storyline with a strong throughline.

GH: April 2026 Discussion Thread

I don’t disagree. I think most of the OG vets that were there under Monty know how to imbue characterization in plot driven material. The writing overall was stronger back then, but there were rough times even when the show was solidly number one and the actors and energy of her show kept it there.
Even though I am enjoying the show much more since Michael was recast, the truth is it still suffers from a sameness and generic writing across the characters. Lucy stands out for better or worse (and I agree with the criticisms of FV Lucy) because Lynn doesn’t let her be generic.
I think even Anna and Laura have suffered from often just being there in this generic writing. Sonny and Carly have too, I don’t even recognize them anymore. They had an opportunity with the body in Laura’s trunk to tell a mini story for her about not letting that drive her back to a trauma driven catatonic state. But instead it’s just a plot device for Sidwell that gets dropped for weeks at a time.
I will harp on this probably until the show ends, but one thing Patrick Mulcahey absolutely got right was that the characters should have specific voices. Maxie being virtually revitalized in a handful of episodes is a great example. I shouldn’t be able to switch the dialogue easily between folks.

I get Lezlie, who always has story. (She's cheating on Justin with Mike, or something around this time.) Hillary's stories never seemed to go anywhere.
I was trying to figure out why Nola or Vanessa weren't included. While Lisa had been airing for a few months (but oddly, both Kelly and Morgan are, and they must've started around the same time), Maeve probably hadn't even started airing when this was at the printers.
Poor Janet Grey---that is one lousy drawing of her. Sure, Jerry looks sinister, and Stephen looks a little odd...but if they didn't list Janet's name, I don't think I could've guessed that was supposed to be her. Unless someone can think of someone else that might be.
