  1. I too have mixed feelings about this, but till I see it on screen, I won't be able to say anything more.
  2. Knowing Bradley... she may be pregnant by him in couple of months... This is Bold we are talking about. Bradley thrives on disgusting.
  3. I'm yet to see Anna in the role. But I think, I'll probably agree with you.
  4. Sadly, then I was not imagining it. Thank you for this. I was gaslighting myself into believing that it's just in my head-thing. October 1988 - Jan 1989 (Harding Lemay and then Donna Swajeski) is SUBLIME. I was hooked on instant... and was crying 2-3 episodes in. Quality dialogue, suspenseful scenes, beautiful production. And my hands are itching to press play and continue where I left off - into February 1989 and beyond. But... I will persevere with 1987 just for the sake of the experiment, till I can't bare it anymore. Maybe something will surprise me... I'm yet to see Anne Heche's first few months on the show and I'm willing to swallow the melodrama and the boring dialogue... for her.
  5. Episode 5860 - July 21 1987 I don't know if I'm going to be able to endure more of this period. This is not the late 1988-early 1989 Another World that I started watching and loving couple of weeks ago. This is another show. What a difference a new head writer makes! Wow! I expected not to notice much difference. Am I imagining it? Someone tell me. I'm 5 episodes in and finding so many irritating things in the writing and characterisations. Maybe it will get better. I sure hope so. I miss the Donna Swajeski episodes I was watching. So what was going on - it was a stormy night in Bay City. Donna nearly died from a fire she stupidly caused in a pathetic scene that only Bold and the Beautiful can rival. John, of course saved her. How predictable. Lisa confessed to Felicia that she was raped in a highly one dimensional melodramatic scene that lacked only a clown with a violin in the background. I guess I should get used to everything being served so direct. That scene could have been written so much better. And did we really need this lame diary? To follow her around in her princess dress writing in it... dramatically? It's infantile for her age. I guess we may say she's emotionally stunted since she was traumatized in the past, but overall it looks and feels cartoonish. But hey it was better than the masochistic Modesta I was a hooker fiasco. In this current 1987 regime everything is repeated to ad nauseam. There are nearly none of the subtext and dimensions that are there in late 1988. At least not right now. God... I should have listened to the people who told me to keep watching 1989. But hey... I'll still keep trying. Maybe it's just a bad batch of episodes. 5 episodes is not the end. Overall - 4/10. Don't hate me.

  7. I don't even remember this, but it sounds plausible. Nick was like a public toilet in his last few seasons on the show. Bradley Bell would pair him with any woman on the show that had no work at that particular time. Thank God eventually he was written out. 🤣
  8. Kenya said she's not fired and is still receiving checks from Bravo. What happened... she said she FELT threatened... was poked... and "don't come for me, unless I sent for you..." She was concerned... and scared... and took matters in her own hands... so she decided to show RECEIPTS aka explicit images, that she assumed would be BLURRED out. She escalated it... because she was defending herself and her child. 🤣 God, Kenya is such a soap opera character.
  9. SoapNet agrees with you! 😜

    This is a music video collage a fan has created, using video material provided by George Eastman Museum. I think it's a wonderful collage and I love the message you wrote in the comments section. This is the original source of Joan's home videos. https://vimeo.com/649190872 And I, too... would die for a video showing Joan's Secret Storm appearance. It is so iconic. But in the meantime... we have the audio from it... on youtube... And these remaining photos. Poor Joan was deep into her alcoholism at this time... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weOJdw5pQnI&t @Contessa Donatella - but who knows... maybe some day the soap Gods will smile at all of us and somewhere deep into some cellar or high in some attic or... even library... is lying a copy of Joan's Secret Storm fiasco. I would love to see it. And... yes... she was 63 years of age and she was playing a 24 year old character. 🙊
  11. MOOD of the day! 🙊 🤣 I slept with men.mp4
  12. I need to find who wrote those text-boxes for SoapNet and congratulate him/her/them... Just when I'm about to get serious watching a scene, SoapNet randomly trolls the characters and I start laughing! I'm obsessed with it! LOL!

  16. It did sound factual to me... since... in the end of the day... this is a soap opera... and names are... quite often eccentric. But after you cleared it up... I know it's just an error. (or a joke from SoapNet) 😊
  17. I've stopped watching. I just saw some clips on instagram from today... and looked like Ridge was acting like a jerk to Carter, talking so rude and demanding sh-t... with his pitbull daughter standing next to him ready to bark at any second. Bold is just not worth it at this condition that it is in. Boring Will and Electra are the nail in the coffin for my interest to die completely. If I hear or see something that may interest me... I may tune in, but for now... I'll watch soap classics and wait for BTG.
