Viki Dorian Katherine and Jill Brooke and Erica Sheila and Lauren Sami and Carrie And yeah Kristen and Marlena too

Darlene Conley and Susan Flannery together was pure lightning. That chemistry, that power, that edge. They didn’t just elevate The Bold and the Beautiful - they were the show.

I disagree. Victor and Nikki were huge in the 90s, no doubt, but they peaked back then. The show has survived and evolved plenty of times without them being the center, and honestly they’ve overstayed their welcome for years now.

The 80s leaned hard into super couples and wild adventures. Bradys and DiMeras everywhere with the Hortons pushed way into the background (Jen and Hope were really the exceptions)

WEEK OF JULY 30 - AUGUST 3, 1979 Stephanie Woodruff convinced Mary Anderson to drop the lawsuit against Chris Kositchek because of her father Bob Anderson's health. Stephanie also confessed to Julie Wiliams that she's really the believed dead Brooke Hamilton and had plastic surgery which was as successful as Julie's can be. Margo Horton found Trish Banning's hidden diamonds, but Trish swore her to secrecy. Donna Craig likes Arthur, the son of Marlena's patient, Lester. Doug Williams hit the bottle while admitted to Dr. Neil Curtis that he was raised an orphan and his real name is Brent Douglas.

What was the point of bringing her back from the dead, only to kill her off again with no real payoff?

Sherry Shuttak had a brief turn, but for viewers, Ashley Abbott is defined by Eileen Davidson - and sometimes Brenda Epperson. Heather Tom is the only Victoria in my book. Steve Wilder tried - but for most of us, Jack Deveraux will always be Matthew Ashford.

Jess Walton, Brenda Epperson, RKK (Bo Brady) and Mark Valley as Jack are perfect examples of recasts who clicked instantly. Total wins! 👏

Yeah, I wasn’t really moved by the gala either. They talked so much about Tom… but what about Alice? Mickey? And Bill! Honestly, I would’ve preferred the Hortons just sitting in the living room at the Horton house, reminiscing, with more rare flashbacks. No need for a big gala.

Gosh, Suzanne is such a classic - truly a beautiful person, inside and out.

Kudos to Deidre, Suzanne and Susan - they really are the heart and history of Days. And Marie Horton popping in is always such a treat. She’s the last of the original Hortons, and it’s so special every time she shows up.

WOW - those 60s/70s flashbacks were everything. The Horton legacy never looked better. Please release the full footage someday!

OMG those vintage Horton flashbacks!! Production really spoiled us. The 60s/70s vibe, the emotional weight, the history - perfection. Manifesting a full release of that rare footage!

🩸Y&R - The Jill & Katherine mother/daughter retcon Decades of history erased in one paternity test. Fans still debate it. 🪦 Y&R - Philip Chancellor III “returns from the dead” He was definitively dead - body, funeral, years of fallout. Then suddenly… he faked his death because he was gay and wanted to start over? 🧟‍♂️ OLTL - Victor Lord’s “not actually dead” return Victor’s death in the ‘70s was one of the defining moments in the show - Viki’s split personalities, the Lord inheritance, all of it hinged on his death. Then decades later… boom! He’s alive, the body was fake, and suddenly everything we knew about Viki’s trauma and the Lord family saga got shredded for a stunt twist. 🧟‍♀️ B&B - Taylor Hayes - second resurrection, zero logic. The first resurrection was classic soap gold. The second? Utter nonsense. 💀 DOOL - Stefano DiMera - lost count of his deaths. By the 10th death, even Marlena stopped reacting.
