I watched again... since I am a masochist and have been watching since I can tie my shoes... Well... let me say one thing. Katherine Kelly Lang looks so good it's actually shocking. That woman puts some 30 and even 20 years old in her small pocket. Bold really have amazing luck when it came to casting. 36 years later and I'm sure that casting agent looks at KKL and says... I did my job. She is so hot and I'm a gay man and can see it. That's why it's so sad to see how much potential is wasted. Give that woman a meaty real storyline she can rock. Give her her backbone back. Brooke needs to be CEO or Forrester again... dating this cute waiter. She Does not Need to be in that old Ridge drama.

We all want Brooke and Liam.

So Brooke is doing this all over again. But this time she is not 35... it's so sad seeing the same old thing repeated till you are sick. How many times will that woman be made to act a scene like this... And here I was dreaming of a story with that hot young waiter. Brooke could have been on fire with him. No... it's destiny for the 102000 time.

Are you Bradley Bell? Grow a sense of humour. My grandmother died of dementia and I was not using it to insult anyone. The whole comment was just my sense of humor and me being honest. But. I am not going to write in this forum ever again. Every time I try to speak my mind people like that come and make it something it isn't. I was complaining about a god damn soap opera. Are you kidding me...

This sudden absurd rewrite has made 2023 the ultimate worst year of the show ever. It's a complete mess. No character is the same and everyone is acting like they don't know who they are. Brooke and Taylor's after 60 friendship has become cartoonish and unrealistic for women that age. That dialogue about Braylor. I mean... are they 13? This is not how 60 year old women act. Bill slept with Sheila so that he can do this laughable conspiracy with the help of Ridge. This is like written by someone on these boards. It's so bad. Did he have sex with her every time or did Ridge come and help when he couldn't do it... Sheila maybe didn't notice in the dark. Is Bradley Bell on acid or does he have starting phase of dementia. Don't start me on the Hope, Liam "drama" and the boring Sinn shirtless scenes. I mean... what's new. The show is begging to be cancelled. It's offensive to viewers and so out of touch with reality... who do they think their viewers are... idiots or 9 year Olds? Maybe Bill is now faking that he was faking that he was faking that he was faking. And maybe soon it will be revealed that Bill is Lauren with a mask on.

The stupid yputube channel stopped uploading 1997 and is uploading 1994 once a day... which is absurd. It would take years to upload to 2005. They really destroyed this nice thing that was happening. Thank God for videoland.

I completely agree.

1.1993 - The episodes leading to BELIEF are masterpiece. Both me and my partner who had never watched Bold in his life... made him a fan now. We would rewatch the company fights scenes 10 times and make short clips from it. IT IS ICONIC. Sheila is lurking in the dark with her evil cleverness. The show is 10 out of 10. 2.1992 - I simply love this period. I love Taylor when she was winning. I loved the fights with Brooke. 10 out of 10. 3.1987 - I mean... THE BEGINNING. It was like a fairytale. I LOVED the first 250 episodes!!!!!!!!! 4.1991 - Brooke taking Eric from Stephanie... Stephanie homeless. TALK ABOUT LEGENDARY!!!!!!!!!!!! 5.1988 - Stephanie VS Brooke started pretty much here. The first slap... Stephanie won the first round. AMAZING. 6.1989 - Amazing DARK year with shocking twists.. Angela was SICK AND AMAZING storyline. 7.1990 - I loved this year but it was more calmish after the incredibly dramatic 1989! 8.1998 - Had some great moments... but the real camp has started. 9.1996 - I was surprised by this year. Had some very good moments. I cried during some episodes. I loved Stephanie's mercury poisoning 10.1995 - The show didnt know what it was. Was it teen show now or not. TOO MUCH new characters... Storylines lacked cohesion. It WAS BORING. 11.1994- COMPLETE MESS compared to 1987-1993. If I had started watching here I would have stopped. The Leila storyline changed to show into a caricature of itself. It was absurd and DESTROYED Taylor's character. The show started to sound MELODRAMATIC and poorly written 12. 1997 - This year... was A MESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It started great... the first 40-50 episodes... then it spiraled... I couldnt bear the Grant Chambers storyline and Ridge in jail WENT FOR SO LONG. Maggie and James were also so unbeliavable. It was the most boring year of the show I have watched from the 90s.

I'm near 1999 and let me say... Everything past Belief has been crap compared to the first 7 years. I tried to make myself like it and even had moments when I wanted to believe it was back... but now watched...1994 to 1998... The Titanic has sank and the band is Still playing. I am still hopeful for 1999 to 2002... Because hope dies last. But watching these first 7 seasons in dept made me just not like anything since. And I once watched all these seasons as a teenager and loved them. My main issues. 1. Disgustingly bad dialogue and repeated scenes that make you want to vomit. There are moments when there are 5 episodes in which the same scene is repeated. We also have flashbacks all the time. 2. Taylor has been destroyed as a character. The smart interesting woman of 1990 to 1993 is gone and there is this pathetic crying all the time victim. 3. The show looks and feels cheaper. The clothes look worse and sometimes I forget I an watching a show about fashion people. The first 7 years were so glamorous and beautiful. 4. Making Brooke the slut from the valley made the whole war between her and Stephanie a cartoon. The beginning... the first 7 years it was very high level quality conflict. Stephanie was not so cartoonish. Overall I am thinking of re watching the first 1700 episodes and just never going pass that. But I will continue with 1999.

Bold is A The best month in years.

Brooke and Hollis will be hot. I can't wait. I am glued to the screen. It's giving me 2002 vibes.

Guys please let's bombard the official youtube channel with messages to fix the audio. Please. They should know its absurd and disrespectful. Please write on the new 1997 uploads.

Yes. The last 20-30 episodes have been uploaded like that. I think someone wants the views to die down so that they need to stop uploading.

The official youtube channel has started to upload only damaged episodes from season 10... without background music and very low quality. Its like a complete disregard for fans and disrespect to the show itself. They should just stop it already... we will just watch on videoland. Its unbearable to watch episodes without background music. What they are doing is damaging the legacy of the show.

BB - over the top, privilege, women crying because of paternity tests, rich people problems SUNSET BEACH - free, young and fresh With a side of crazy

I see that youtube has pretty much all years after 1992... Which period do you guys reccomend to start watching. Which period will be good to get into without being too confused of what is happening

...

Thank you so much! Do you by chance have the missing 2000 and 2001 episodes in German. Ive been thinking about that since we are watching in such fast pace. I would be so grateful if you could add them when you have time. You have been one of the super heros of this community.

What do you guys think is Bradley Bell's best season of the show overall?

She still hasn't called her that.i will tell you guys when she does ahahah. Let me say that I loooove the show in late 1996. I would say the past 200 episodes have been a great season for bold. I would even rate this period late 1996 going into 1997 the best since 1993.

2401 Brooke is begging Stephanie for help. Stephanie called her a parasite. One of the best exchanges EVER! Is it possible that the show is so good? Someone who has watched... Is it going to last? Is 1997 a great year?

2378. The [!@#$%^&*] is about to hit the fan for Brooke. I loooove scheming Stephanie. I love this new fighting Taylor. I love the entire show right now. Its like its woken up from a coma. I love Clarks storyline. The overal style is similar to 1987... 1993. Its better written. MUCH MUCH better. Overall would rate it 9 out of 10. When I will watch again I will probably always skip mid 1994 to end of 1995. This was a disaster period.

Episode 2350... The show is good. Its getting a little repetitive again but its nice repetitive with characters I care about. One thing I notice is that around this period the show is starting to feel like the Bradley Bell soap opera till 2005. It seems very known and the style is very similiar to everything ive watched 2001 to 2005. And with Brooke kissing Grant while Ridge is away... I think the slut from the valley is activated in that cheap trashy way Bradley always wanted her in.

I am very excited since I didnt expect for the show to recover after nearly disastrious 1994 and 1995. But it did. And its going strong.

2301 to 2340 has been MASTERPIECE. I cant believe Bradley Bell had it in him... or maybe Bill Bell was writing in the shadow... I dont know BUT The show is back to 9 ot of 10! There have been 3 episodes in which we cried and I would rate them solid 10 out of 10! I am really shocked. 1996 has been MILLION times better than 1994 and 1995. So.. folks... have patience and the show will be back. I hope it lasts this time. Reasons I say this. 1. Stephanie poison and mad story is amazing and SF is playing it for an Emmy! She is the best. 2. Sheila is more interesting and evil than ever. 3. Brooke coming out of prison and helping Stephanie... I cried. 4. Sally hugging Stephanie and holding her in her arms. I CRIED. 5. Dylan choosing not to sleep with Lauren - great storywriting! The only think I am sad about is that Taylor is gone but I know she is coming back soon so I m not worried. Actually we havent been more excited to binge watch in probably months! God I love B and B. This show has saved me from depression and given me inspiration all though my life. Now its some sort of a shared hobby with me and my partner. He loves it too. THANKS SO MUCH AGAIN TO @rsclassicfanforever whose episodes we are binge watching! THANK YOU THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
