The ratings increased(after years of flopping) late 2011/2012 when Kim Scott and Jacqui were anchoring and driving stories. It is a fact fan engagement went up. If Kim were still on. Her and Jacqui would be the stars. it reached a decade high the 2015-2016. And whom were the leads? Steffy Maya and Caroline. even now Thope and Sinn are the B&b couple with the most vocal fandom and engage. This Thope video on IG had 2 million views. And Sinn video on FB had 16.5 million views. The most engagement a post on each platform had gotten in recent years. I have receipt for my claims. So if it makes me ageist so be it🥱

Obviously Younger characters are more active characters and receive more stereotypical common plots (which they recycle for older characters). You know this. if these writers aren’t creative enough to give older characters age appropriate stories. I don’t want to see them driving stories. That the younger set should be driving. Period. And regardless. The 30s-40s set. Should be the focus and priority of the soaps. They are the future. there is a reason B&b has a more passionate intense fandom compared to Yr. Despite the awful writing. Steffy fans, with an edge of Hope fans. Keep this shows social media presence alive. and taken accolades, mainstream coverage, fan engagement, reaction, following into consideration. Steffy/Jacqui is very much the star of the show. We are in streaming era. Media presence in very important. In keep these shows relevant and alive. I thought this was common knowledge? That she’s pretty much the shows IT girl. And has been for years. The actress literally has more Ig followers than every other soap star. It speaks for itself.

I explained it Before. It’s always the same tired stories with them. The writers nowadays don’t have the intelligence to write for characters that generation. So I think they need to focus on investing in their future.

Steffy is the star of the show. Since 2011 the actress has received constant fan awards. Emmys. And the character has the most vocal fandom on social media. She is Bold and the Beautiful. Not to mention the character page has the largest following on FB. Compared to the others. I’m not saying she’s as iconic as Stephanie or even Brooke. But she’s been the anchor of the show for years now. If Kim Matula was still on. It would be Jacqui and Kim anchoring the show.

The ratings during the 2012-2016 years were the highest it was in years. And this era was anchored by the younger set. Steffy Hope Liam the avants, Caroline, Rick, with a side of Bill Katie Brooke Ridge Quinn were the focus. I’m not twisting anything. Is a fact. Here’s a link. I can’t speak for other countries but ik in Us. The Hope Liam Steffy triangle increased ratings. And also brought light to social media engament. https://deadline.com/2014/02/cbs-daytime-hits-ratings-milestones-678687/

All I’m going to say is bold ratings increased when they put Scott Jacqui and Kim front and center 2012. The triangle was badly written. But initially it brought life back into the show Because people were tired of the same stories centering around bridge/stephanie/taylor. It got old and stale. Steffy is the star of the show. Fans are very engaged with her and Hope. They are not the problem. The writing is. I agree that Liam is stale because the character has always needed Steffy and Hope to carry him. Anyways Steffy and Hope aren’t younger anymore. But it makes sense the show centers around them. I agree soaps (except gh) doesn’t have a strong younger set. But I blame the acting and writing. They js need to cast better. But they are important. soaps ratings have been at their peaked with 30s to 40 year olds leading. It has been proven.I’m not saying there shouldn’t be balance. But I disagree with the sentiment that the younger set is the problem. And I do think vets should take a backseat. It’s a problem i have with Yr. Nikki’s is going through a drinking crisis how many times now?

I prefer the younger characters. They are the future of the show. They just need to be written better. They recycle the same stories with the older crowd and write them like their 25. Imo older characters should not be leading soaps.

These pictures were taken before Matt left the show. The actor was having contract negations. And I think the backup plan was Hope, Finn, Steffy, Liam Quad. Since he’s back I don’t think they’re going in that direction.

I think Matt was having contract negotiation. Which is why they pivoted

Could you see Kim matula pulling this off?

Steffy is the star of the show. Why write her out?

I’ll announce later this week or maybe today. I’m lazy lool

You need to finally join the Thope train. They have the best chemistry😌

I think Hope is being written like this to prop Finn’s pov

Hi does anyone have the new videoland episodes ?

Love this video! Great job

I think people need to start defending them more. It’ll just keep continuing

Who was the B&b character with the largest fandom in your country?

Is Brooke’s character more loved or hated? I see a lot of hate on social media. She seemed to be more of a fan favorite. Before Steffy fans took over social media & message boards.

I think more people need to show and show love to her. And defend her. Trolls are only stopped when they became outnumbered.

How do you think he would write for them?

Do you guys think Sheila should have been redeemed back in the day?

.

Yeah I saw that tweet. Hes a racist pos.

I do think Jacqui is a good actress but she is overrated to me. I think Tk is good too. But he js acts like he doesn’t care. So I don’t know why he keeps getting noms.
