B&B: August 2024 Discussion Thread
-- Kind of hilarious that Dumbass Finn was SOOOOOO shocked at the Hope kiss, as if he's missed every sign for weeks. -- Luna planting a kiss on Bill's lips? I thought I was watching Twin Peaks. It's like Brad Bell turned over writing duties to a roomful of monkeys. That being said, I like it because it's so damn outrageous and ridiculous. -- Rebecca Budig's acting is fine. That is not Taylor, though.

Billy Flynn was really good. It takes a lot to make something decent out of that absolute mess -- pretending that might be Abby. How did BF keep a straight face? Was glad to again get a chance to LMAO at Kayla's doctor skills as she did NOTHING while telling Xander to leave the room and with Sarah lying there like a stiff. No one's checking Sarah, but Kayla does prepare a shot to give her. LOLOLOL I think I'd have to try out both of them before making a final judgment on that.

I did not enjoy Jacqueline Grace Lopez as Blaze, but I am struck that they dumped her this quickly and with such a ho-hum exit lacking emotion. Getting rid of the gay character and keeping the homophobe? Wow...that's special. And now Natalia gets Sonny -- a lowlife mobster -- to buy her way into Deception? I thought that company worried about public relations. Oh, that was covered by "I'll be a silent partner." GMAFB. I hate Natalia more today than I did yesterday. Good job, GH. BTW, was anyone else struck that JGL didn't mention Kate Mansi in her long goodbye message? It's pretty standard to mention someone you shared that much screen time with, so it seems intentional not to mention her. After all, she had time to be "grateful to Frank" while twice making it clear she was blindsided by being cut.

Leo Howard is a decent actor, and he's good looking. Still, this story is laughable because he doesn't work as a high schooler. He just doesn't. All Carlivati had to do was SORAS the character a few years, and it could work. Instead, we're watching a guy who's CLEARLY beyond his teen years talk about going to camp and hiding out in a cabin. LH is doing his best to play the character younger, but it's an impossible task.

Fully agree. I've always liked ELR as an actor, and never disliked her even when her characters were shady or difficult. But Natalia? I actively hate the character -- and that's who Frank and Co. built. It's hard to believe that soap execs and insiders can be so clueless about making a character so unlikable. I feel contempt for Natalia every time I see her on the screen.

Same here -- I'm on the Diamond tier. I filed the email price increase when I got it. Hopefully, it won't show up on my bill and I won't have to spend 2 hours calling them. The upper tier is called the Diamond tier. It includes over 150 channels, most of which I never watch. I checked out moving to a lower tier, but that would have kicked in a charge for Peacock and a very low storage capacity for my DVR -- for a "savings" that made none of it make sense.

This Body & Soul stuff is some of the worst I've ever seen on a soap. No exaggeration. It disrespects the soap, it disrespects the fans, it disrespects the actors. I cannot believe this wasn't deep-sixed by Peacock execs. It really impacts the rest of the show negatively -- even though "the rest of the show" is far from good. It's all trash.

I love Eric Braeden, but I fail to see how he's carrying the show on his back. All he does is move his kids and wife around to different executive positions while he takes over other companies and does mergers -- NONE of which is compelling television. In real life, it would also be a terrible way to conduct business.

I think we ALL know your opinion about whose baby it was. Almost all of us disagree with your OPINION because we feel there's context, and it feels like you ignore that context. And "Kristina would have ultimately made the decision to keep her child and tell Molly that the adoption she had been hoping for was not going to take place"? Where are you getting this? That's not fact -- you're just guessing. What bothers me more than anything is that you paint this as some moral issue, as if Kristina keeping the baby would have been morally correct. I completely disagree, but since the point is moot, I won't address it further.whos
