I was instructed to come here. It’s supposed to be a safe haven for Passions threads. Since you’re trolling me, I’m adding you as one of my ignored users. 

You call that trolling?!

This thread ought to be for fans only. You can bash JER and my soap elsewhere. 

This board ought to be for grownups only. This kind of attitude belongs in kindergarten.

  That look on Kelly's face is priceless!

I have no idea who he is, but he's gorgeous

So, they've actually moved into the hourglass?

Sometimes it goes the other way. For instance, Peggy McCay was nominated in the Lead Actress category at the Daytime Emmys in 2015 for performances in 2014, when she had only appeared in 26 (!) episodes that year. Why she was put up in that category is anybody's guess....

Santa didn't bring me what I wanted for X-mas....  

Maybe if I'm really nice all of next year, I can get to be naughty next X-mas.    

Dave Salmoni doesn't look to shabby...... 

Sad that they're wasting such a powerhouse like Colleen on a short-term character like this, because I don't see how Jordan can stay around after the initial story. But then again, a short-term commitment might be all Colleen was interested in....

Hunter was never close to being the main star of B&B. Taylor was simply a replacement of sorts for Caroline so Stephanie could have someone "suitable" to push Ridge towards instead of Brooke. B&B's main story was always Stephanie vs Brooke.

When Ferguson was  asked about her time as Brooke, she said she was lucky, because she happened to be there at a time when  a big story was climaxing for Brooke.  I do wonder if they may have timed it that way to send a message to  KKL.

She might have been lucky, but we (the audience) was not. KKL not being there for the revelation that Rick was the one who shot Grant lessened the impact considerably. I felt completely underwhelmed by it and constantly thought how much better those scenes would have been with KKL there instead of Sandra Ferguson.

I can't imagine seeing Jeff Trachta play out the Thorne/Brooke romance on B&B. He sorely lacked the sex appeal that Winsor Harmon brought to the role and the scorching chemistry Harmon had with KKL.

He was on B&B as Raymond for a while....

I think KKL's been able to sell most of the ridiculous stuff she's been asked to play over the years, but the scene where Brooke finds the letter of apology Stephanie wrote to her after she, however unwittingly, set up Brooke's rape, is a notable exception. She wails, flails her arms and ends up having a Scarlett O'Hara-moment where she declares that she will get through this and get her life back (or something similar). And although KKL is a perfectly fine soap-actress, Vivien Leigh she ain't....

I just don't get the appeal for a supposedly smart woman like Steffy.

I felt the same way for years with Taylor and Brooke regarding Ridge. How could two women, as beautiful and smart as those two (one a psychiatrist and the other a chemist) allow themselves to be treated the way they were by Ridge, or any man? 

I could personally not see Thorsten Kaye's Ridge in the middle of the Taylor/Ridge/Brooke triangle... or any of Ridge's early stories actually. He lacks the arrogance (for lack of a better word) that Ronn Moss brought to Ridge, which made his behaviour believable (but no less obnoxious).

So I watched again. Liam really is a complete a.sshole. What an unlikeable leading man.

 

Steffy and Hope come off as so pathetic for being obsessed with this guy that just goes back and forth between them whenever he feels like it.

I'm sure Brad Bell thinks he's found a new version of Taylor/Ridge/Brooke with this, but boy is he wrong..... 

This crap is inferior in every way possible, and makes the T/R/B triangle look like Masterpiece Theatre.
