I didn't put this in the spoiler thread because he doesn't give much information but it sounds utterly stupid.
BBC: The one question that has come up consistently amongst cast members and their friends is 'What are you guys doing with the dolls?'
Bell: Well, the dolls are working! They've been kind of a hit with the press. So we're going to lean into the dolls a little bit. We have a storyline coming up that actually involves a doll as a character and not just a stand-in. So that's a little sneak peek into something we've never done before, but under these circumstances you get new ideas for story and this should be a fun one.
BBC: Can you tell us anything more.
Bell: Well it's amazing what some of these artists in L.A. can do. They can make dolls the spitting image of someone so the dolls are just getting started on The Bold and the Beautiful.

Yikes.
Well B&B definitely benefitted from Y&R's return but both shows are pretty terrible. Y&R came back just as boring as when it left

I think the B&B cast seem pretty tight, but that being a smaller cast helps...and Passions definitely was a soap were everyone was friendly backstage....GH and Y&R seem to choose who will be their "friends" though the GH cast certainly has had more problems in recent years then Y&R ever had.
Well I'm not so much talking about now but the period that Peter is talking about (mainly the 80's and 90's).
I think the B&B cast seems fairly close now but I don't believe that was the case in the 90's either tbh.
The GH cast now is a mess but the 80's and 90's crew are still SUPER close to this day (Kim Shriner, Lynn Herring, Jane Elliot, Jackie Zeman, Tony Geary, Ian Buchanan, Emma Samms, Tristan Rogers, etc). I didn't actually realize how close they all still are until they did those GH fan events together and told like a million stories (Jane and Tony travel overseas together, Lynn, Jane and Kin talk multiple times a day, etc).

I guess it's fitting since there's always this idea the Y&R cast isn't that "family oriented" like other soaps...I don't really agree , but It's probably very "clique-ish" more then any other set.
The East Coast soaps had a reputation for being very close. I know the GL cast used to go out drinking together all the time, they all would walk to a local bar. The west coast soaps are different. Everything and everyone is spread out. Several actors have said the Y&R cast was standoffish and didn't socialized much.
Its interesting though evem compared to the other west coast soaps Y&R's cast never seemed particularly close. Even in the 80's and 90's the stories you hear about the cast of GH and all of their shenanigans - you rarely hear those kinds of stories about backstage Y&R.

That episode comes from archive.org I believe it's March or April 1986.
Thank you.
What was happening at that time? Jack was really in love with Nikki?

I randomly ran across this clip on Twitter while I was searching for a Nikki clip. Does anyone know if this full episode is in the vault?

Delete. Wrong thread.

Scott’s book also addressed a rift with Victoria Rowell, who played Drucilla Winters. In a lawsuit against Sony Pictures Television and CBS, Rowell claimed she was subjected to “various racially charged attacks,” including Scott mocking her by wearing an oversized Afro wig. The case was dismissed in 2017.
Scott recalled things differently, writing that there was a carnival set built for a few episodes of the show. She and few other show members, bored and goofing around on the “out-of-the-ordinary” set, found a bin of clown wigs and tried them on. She said they were “just giggling, pretending to be clowns” when Rowell appeared and went on an “angry tirade.” Scott said Rowell “thought I was making a statement about her hair because of the multi-colored Afro wig I was wearing and accused me of being a racist because of it.”

B&B is still down 1.2 million viewers from this time last year?
GH is only down 200,000?
I know B&B had a lot more leeway but still....

1 minute ago, John said:Fun fact: I saw , now playing Brooklyn, for the first time when tapes rolled. We have to be masked at all times. Crazy...
I think that just means they blocked and rehearsed with masks on and didn't get to take them off until they were actually filming which is expected.
But its all the touching that I think has people baffled lol

Does anyone knkw how long LH will be playing Sam? Is it weeks?

I mean today we saw Michael hug Diane, Carly hug Michael, Valentin repeatedly putting his hands around Lucy's waist, Sam and Jason holding hands, Sam kissing Jason on his forehead, etc

I have to say, I do not hate the ELQ story. It is pulling in characters all over the canvas, both newbies and vets, and they are doing a decent job using history (like Lucy having the tiebreaking vote because of her divorce from Alan). Tracy is very much needed her though. Ned and Michael being the only Quartermaines in these scenes is a little lame.
I remain very confused by Frank's choices though. It feels like there are a lot of actors on this show that are recurring but have more to do on the show and are in more stories than contract castmembers.
The story that is still not working for me is anything involving Peter. Anna looks STUPID. Maxie possibly being pregnant is atrocious. It feels like Anma only shares scenes with Finn, Peter and now Robert and all of her conversations are about Peter.
I also think LH is doing a great job as Sam. She has ENERGY something this show desperately needs as it's often quite lethargic (though I think Y&R now has them beat in that department)

Today's episode was dreadful.

I’ve been really impressed with the show since they came back. Whenever I tune in I’m always in awe of the size and variety of their sets. No soap comes close to them in that regard. They’ve been able to keep the pace up since the sets are large enough to give them adequate movement even while social distancing.
I also agree that Lindsay Hartley is doing amazing work. This is a seamless temp recast. She came in and instantly seemed to understand the character and relationships and she has such a warmth and passion to her portrayal. I’m definitely not looking forward to the sluggish KeMo returning.
Also, am I right in thinking Nelle is Nina’s daughter? The hatred developing in their scenes seems ripe for that. It’s a shame Cynthia Wartros is so bad in the role though.
I don't agree that CW is bad in the role at all. She's not a cartoon but I greatly prefer her more grounded version to whatever MS was doing. She doesn't have chem with Ingo but given Ingo's recent comments I am perfectly fine with Jax just disappearing. She works well with CL, KS, LH, the Sasha girl, etc.

You mean he should be in a triangle with Brooke and STEFFY.
Ahh yes just what Steffy fans want to see, her fighting a 60 year old for a man.

It was interesting

At this point, why isn't Lynn Herring on contract?
I feel like they pretty much have Lucy connected in some way to every castmember from Maxie to Sasha to Valentin to Nina, last year it was Ava, Ryan, etc.
And if they're going to keep that Sasha girl, why didn't they just make her Lucy's daughter Christina? They look JUST alike

Bradley Bell reveals that dolls will get their own story on Bold
in Discuss The Soaps: Archive (2018 - 2020)
Posted · Edited by Vizion
This. And the sad part is Bell thinks it's funny and entertaining. Nevermind the fact that all his goofy interviews about dolls did nothing but make B&B return with 1.2 million less viewers. He loves a goofy gimmick, anything for a laugh or attention no matter how detrimental it is to the genre as a whole.
I always feel bad for his actors. Even when the show returned he spent more time talking about dolls and spouse stand-ins than actual storylines or compelling storytelling.
