Absolutely agree. This was the period that started the build up of tolerable, then good, then amazing material... culminating with 2001-2002 Breacon. Then in early 2003 it all came breaking down.

Thank you!

My childhood in a nutshell.

I watched today's episode. I guess... I'm back. That was a short pause... lol, but... guys... this is like a sickness, like a compulsion you can't stop. It's like I'm in hell and made to watch the show for eternity. Bradley Bell has my soul and he won't release it. Watching this show is bad karma from another life. One thing I noticed - Brooke is talking in her girlish voice... she's forgotten that matriarch... deep-talking... and I can detect early signs of the Whore of Beverly Hills in her. Finn better prep (tetanus shots, all kinds of shots), because he's about to enter the Gates of Hell. You know it, I know it - it's coming. When Brooke smells blood... she goes in for the kill. And her next victim will be Finn. 🙈

I'm known to see the positive even in the most vile people/things. A character flaw after being raised by narcissists. 🙊 Joke aside - I do think that's the only of his storylines that I've truly enjoyed from start to finish... That I would give him a solid A+. No wonder he's spend decades trying to re-create it. Never succeeding.

Me when I have to be sober, but deal with idiots.

God I love her.

I'm inspired by @Planet Soap's wonderful topic... and I got to thinking. What are some of the amazing things... storylines... changes in production, anything REALLY positive you can think of... that some of the not so well received or infamous for their bad writing/producing... head writers or EPs have done? Like... it may even be an accidentally popular storyline that made people tune in and turned ratings around... or just... something that worked, while everything else was horrible. I think this topic can be a lot of fun. I can start with 1 example. And of course this is very subjective. Bradley Bell / Bold The Breacon Scandal of 2001-2002 was probably the most entertaining Bold... since 1993. There are months and months of episodes (yes, somewhat trashy....) that are unskippable. And some of the most iconic scenes in the show's history were created in this period. What are your examples?

I miss Hollis. His cute smile made the show tolerable every time he was on. And he could have been Brooke's best mistake ever. Now we have to wait... for Brinn to happen. 🤣

Nobody, and I mean, nobody, makes better salads than me.

So powerful.

The women of Ukraine - beauty that is hard to match. ❤️

My brain cells when I say - time out. 🤣

My psychotic mother send me a Viber photo from a different number (one of her girlfriends)... with a photo of a Christmas card I had written to her... 10 years ago in which I had said she's the best mother in the World. Manipulation tactic to get me to mellow out... but honey - 10 years ago I was 18-19 years old and still under the spell of your lies... This card does the exact opposite of what you want - it just reminds me how much I've grown and how much I've learned in these past 10 years... to make me able to say - Goodbye.

I think Anita will be nothing like some people expect (me included). Which is the beauty of it. I really want, in the end of the day... to be surprised and wowed.
