B&B being bolgna :lol:

Well I don't really watch the show but I just see similarities in the production and the way its written and why wouldn't their be, Bill Bell's son is penning the show. They are big on the business wars aren't they in the fashion industry? I've just never found it to be all that interesting.

Oh well this is just my opinion based on the little I've seen of it. I'll trust those who watch it regularly when they say it doesn't seem similar to them. Just to me scratching the surface they do. Meh. Regardless of whether their similar the simple fact of it is that B&B has never once caught my eye or been the type of show I'd like to get invested in.

I don't watch much of either, but I have to agree from what I have watched. B&B definitley seems more 'campy' than Y&R....

Y&R is just not my cup of tea...but I'm sure it's good for those who like it and the face of the guy who plays Ridge on B&B scares me! :o

All JMO.

I think Alexis can be uptight sometimes but she doesn't seem shrill to me.

I think Melvin's biggest asset is that she "goes for it", the other younger actors could take a page out of that book. That said, she still needs to polish up and learn to play more off of others to create a scene instead of showcasing her acting.

Agreed on KA. I am not sure if it's part of how she conceives of Hope +10 years older than in the 80's but I guess it never seemed necessary to me to do that just to sell the character as older. I think this was true of Missy Reeves as well. I wonder how much has to do with writing differences.

Agreed on LR's Billie.

Somehow I like them in their "plainness", I can't explain why ... I guess I have this feeling something is going to happen with Lauren soon and I want to anticipate their seeming domestic bliss twistedly shattered somehow. Soon.

Out of curiosity, Lisa Trusel's or Camilla Scott's?

The Koz doesn't pale, for me, but I too prefer Deb Adair.

OMG....SCOTT??? Dude...that's just whack. What's even whackier is that the entire Lauren/Sheila feud started over him.

I could have dealt with the Carly/Iris story, if it had played out properly, and given us the reasons why Carly is who she is. Honestly, I wanted more confrontations between them. I mean, how twisted is it that someone frames a 10/12 year old for killing her baby? Carly should have gotten her pound of flesh 100x over...instead, it was all about finding out all about Gwennie. And now Carly and Gwen barely have any scenes together anyway. What a bleepin' waste.

I'll give you Masters over Dolan and Fulton. I'd say it's a dead heat with Kim. (Real Kim...not kissin' Katie's butt Kim.)

I'm tired of Katie with anyone.... :lol:

    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.   
    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
