B&B: May 2025 Discussion Thread
Thanks for letting me know! I thought there was a preemption until CBS confused me by uploading Monday's episode on Friday.

It's just a standard slicer and I use a hidden column to link the relevant cells to it. Nothing fancy.

Yup, it's here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1d4EqpAHjpeAczF8vhUrvyxUoklfczoo_kwRmeIZQ40A/edit?gid=0#gid=0&fvid=1678181535 Admittedly I haven't gone out of my way to actively promote it except for on this forum (and on my signature) so not many people know it exists.

B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles
Good idea. We should also screenshot certain comments, especially the ones that are defamatory. Who knows if they'll ever be needed as evidence! 😂🤭😈 YouTube in general is a cesspool for trolling and bullying. Thank goodness forums like this still exist where we can still engage in civilised discussion. Yippee! "You take that BITCH mother of yours with you back to Paris!" 🤣 Definitely need to compile the number of slaps Stephanie did. It would be in the hundreds I'm sure! It's in the pipeline, along with a list of must-see episodes. I have been a bit lazy as of late so I can't give you a timeframe lol.

Now resorting to transphobic jokes. Yawn. KKL thanks you all for the engagement. It helps the channel reach more people out there. I hope they're raking it in. Dont worry, I don't think 4021 has been skipped. The episode before and the one after are still scheduled to start an hour after each other. I suspect this episode will appear without a live chat.

DAYS: R.I.P. Drake Hogestyn (John Black, Days of our Lives)
Same. His name came up on a YouTube video and I thought, surely this is a hoax? But nope.

Once Sarah Buxton was gone, the show really lost its fun vibe. I was super excited for 2001, but it ended up being kind of a letdown. By January 2002, things are really heating up again. The show is totally hitting its stride. Ronn Moss absolutely crushed it in the boardroom scene. Usually, his serious face doesn’t do much for the show, but when it comes to a business storyline, he really nails it. It's funny how hardly anyone brings up 2004. It feels like that year is totally overlooked when people discuss B&B. I don't think the show has even posted any episodes from that year. I only started watching the show regularly from 2005 onwards, so anything before that seems like a blur.

ALL: End of an Era: Are Daytime Soaps Washing Away?
Yes I hope they stick around. But I also hope they can adapt to ever changing viewing habits. Stop dragging them out. Make them run shorter. I can barely get through a 20 minute show. I don't know how people can commit themselves to one hour. The writing would have to be excellent. That’s my 2 cents anyway

I have to admit I didn't pay much attention to the Constantine storyline. It felt like added filler to the show which at that time was all about the Shane McGrath shooting and Stephanie's crusade to get Brooke's kids taken off her. Thank you 🥰 Yes it looks like they've got 2002 sorted. Fingers crossed.

I remember one episode the director (it was a guy, probably Michael Stich) is shushing everyone while shouting the episode number and tape date. I was like whoa! 🤣 And Miss Deveney Dixon, I mean Kelly "Bold and the Beautiful 5452 10 21 2008". She gets straight to the point! 🤣😛 I just had a neat idea. What if we did a compilation of all the director shouts and make it a two hour long movie? 🤣🤣🤣

That's a good list. I've been thinking of making one myself. Just not entirely sure how to present it and whether or not to put episodes into different categories (such as marriages, births, deaths, milestones et cetera). I would also like to create a specific list of select quotes from a character and episode. There are plenty of good ones that people love to refer back to but can't hunt down the specific episode. The official channel attempts to do it with video shorts, but they don't always pick the best scene.
