This is just wrong on so many levels.

Amen on every single point. I can't believe someone else is thinking the exact things I am. I just finished watching and I literally can't disagree with a single sentence. IMO they need immediate help with the writing. This is just so mediocre... Some of the worst soap opera cliches and bad habits that have blossomed in shows like Bold... are starting to thrive here too. The time has come where I find myself watching this show laughing and cringing and that's not a good thing. They are especially unbalanced from day to day. There is still time to save this show before it turns into the sequel of The Bold And The Beautiful. I just hope MVJ and her team do something about it in the next 6 months. I am done with saying it's only growing pains. There are actual pains at times that need to be addressed.

Thank you so much @chrisml for sharing this.

Now that's an onlyfans account I didn't know I needed. 🤣🤣🤣

The two dolls economy. Two dolls and five pencils.

That's what he wants to do actually. Probably has a doll copy of Brooke hidden somewhere. God knows what he does with it.

Ladies and gentlemen I present you... Mourning in the age of social media.

Yes! The current state of daytime doesn't even try. (with very few exceptions) A fresh example - what Bell is doing with Remy. One day we'll hear he is an angel helping old ladies with their groceries and "forget that he was a stalker and a wannabe killer...". I am all for a redemption arc... if done with attention and sincerity. In the case of Marty... I feel they are planting the seeds. In the conversation with Viki, her trauma was exposed and we saw that deep down underneath... she is a scared little girl that misses her mother. But so do many other monsters... - says the cynical side of me that struggles to believe someone, especially after a certain age could change that much. On my worst days I don't even believe in redemption at all.

WOOOOF. Now that's what I call my kind of product placement.

Oh, yes! That's the name! Thank you! And wow... TK is one lucky man, because she is really... I mean... really beautiful. She could be a supermodel if she wanted... with that bone structure. Very memorable face, a true gem for the show to have.

I have my own idea what may happen... but it's only speculation based on what I've seen so far. I suspect Suede may give her AIDS if she ends ups sleeping with him. Because wasn't she and her homophobic gang saying that "only gays get it" and "they deserve it"... Something like this circles around in my head, but it may be different. I know that whatever this girl/woman touches... it spoils. She is such a sinister presence in the show. But if they do end up redeeming her, it will have to be something major. And she would have to have a real catharsis to change her ways.

😂

Oh... the opposite of nice. Quite evil... if I dare to say. She did something unforgivable - created a rumor that an innocent man is a pedophile. In my eyes... you can't go lower than this. That's why I'm cringing a bit... when I see Andrew (the man in question) has already forgiven her. Not only forgiven, but still wants to help her and enlighten her. But I guess... I'm not a reverend... and I'm the least forgiving person on this planet. 😁

I knew it! I've tried to stay away from spoilers as much as possible. OLTL was the show I knew least about... so this was a huge advantage in this regard. I was never interested in it before this year, so I only knew it as the show that had the woman with multiple personalities and the black-haired antagonist woman. That was the extent of my knowledge. Thank God, because I feel like I'm watching it with full anticipation about what's to come. About Marty... it will be hard redeeming her after this, but not impossible IMO. The actress is really shining in the last few weeks. At first I was not that impressed, but lately... so many nuances I didn't see coming. And all of it is in the acting. She is really magnificent. And stunning too. I forgot her full name... Susan... I think it was... I don't google it so I don't accidentally find out she dies in year 1994 or 1995 on the show (the character). I've spoiled so much storyline by just googling actor names. 😁

This. I've always said that the writing is at fault in the case of Ashley. In the case of Thomas... It's the entire universe.

Chiiile she didn't even try to properly lip sync. Such a trainwreck. YouCut_20250915_144806811.mp4

Up to September 2nd, 1992. ⭐ "Trouble is a friend." 🔷 Two new episodes, the show is FINALLY turning the page. 🔷 Looks like the Billy Douglas saga is wrapping up. His homophobic dad decided to pack his bags, claiming that his son and wife have become total "strangers" to him. To prove this to them, he took out old photos from their "happy" days. Billy corrected him. He reminded his father that even back then, when everything seemed picture-perfect, he was the same as he is today - gay. His line - “I've always been a stranger!” gave me goosebumps. 🔷 The Demerest baby is running a fever, which places Leanne and Jason in a difficult situation. They need to run to the hospital, but they don't have money or insurance. I believe this is the moment they might get busted. The tension escalated further when Kevin received a call informing him that one of the doctors (a stunning woman that needs a leading role in this show!) at the hospital spotted Leanne and Jason. He and Rachel (Hank Gannon's daughter) are hurrying over... while Jason and Leanne are thinking of ways to escape YET AGAIN. 🔷 Blair Buchanan is having trouble laying in the bed she made for herself. The promise of a powerful jewelry dynasty is not enough to keep her away from Max. Typical - wants to have the cake and eat it too... situation. You can't have it both ways, honey. I've clipped the scene with Max, just to show how this time Blair is in the begging position. The tables have turned. And I love this. Now Max has to be even more stern and give her the cold shoulder every time she tries to gaslight him or manipulate him. 🔷 We saw the return of the Marty demon - that little witch that started the whole thing... and what really annoys me is how everyone seems to have forgiven her already. I hate when soaps do this. How many times do we have to get burned by someone to... just cut them off? I feel like the show is preparing some type of redemption storyline for her, involving that bizarre man who has infiltrated the community - Suede. He is an escaped criminal and probably a serial killer if you ask me. The man is giving me bad vibes. But hey... he and Marty deserve each other. 🔷 Overall the show is taking a breath of fresh air. We were submerged in darkness and toxicity for so long that finally getting opportunity to just enjoy an entertaining soap opera that is not dealing with overly complicated and disturbing themes is... just wonderful. I think the homophobia storyline ended in the highest point, and that's how it should be. It was just the right time to finish it, before getting too difficult to stomach. 🔷 Overall - 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clip of the day Blair and Max. How the roles have been reversed! ddddddddddddddddddddd.mp4

Reba has found the secret to eternal youth and beauty. WOW.

Thank you @Errol. I can't wait. I don't know how I'll be able to add GH in my viewing schedule, but I'll sure try.

You are... as usual... right on the money about these social issue storylines and how often they seem incredibly "crass" as you put it. I've seen some hardcore cringe through the years as Emmy-baiting became soaps' favorite hobby. It's especially pathetic when the second that storyline ends, it's never mentioned ever again, we never see the side characters ever again. Bold are masters of this. And yes, the impact this storyline still has in modern days... is remarkable. In a way... also depressing, because I'm reminded how we've gone back and degraded as society. We all know why that is. Also... after watching this masterpiece of a storyline... I'm just sad that this period of the show is not remastered and put on proper streaming. Watching it on these 240p VHS rips is just unfair to the material. It deserves to be seen in it's full glory. I'm still grateful for the recordings... of course I am... but it's funny how we have some of the trashiest eras of soaps available for online viewing in pristine HD, but this... is almost forgotten.
