Recommended Posts

I really think today's show deserves its own thread, because today's show wast totally classic B&B and I for one totally loved it, it was so great to see Stephanie back to her old tricks again, and the last five minutes of today's show was priceless with, Stephanie and Thorne having Capt. Crammer walk down the runway with Donna, and then for Steph to get on the microphone and basically announce to everyone that Capt. Crammer was one of Jackie's best customers as a prostitute, and then to say that Forrester is now being run by nothing more than the common whore was just priceless.

I barely understood what was going on when it started, but the show had me on the edge of my seat. Stephanie the Queen bitch is back, and I loved and hated her at the same time. I felt bad for Nick and Jackie, without knowing really what the heck was going on. Taylor didn't even bug me today, who woulda thunk?

Overall, Must See TV to me.

Haven’t seen the fashion show yet but the whole week has been fantastic so far.

It started off rather so-so but ever since everything has been good or very good. I wasn’t crazy about Jackie’s story so far and I’m rarely content when B&B focuses so tightly on just one story (let’s face it: if you don’t like it what is left? diversity never hurts) but they’ve been doing great. Surprisingly enough they stripped the camp of Jackie’s whoredom and replaced it by serious drama...

Never dared to hope that they actually show Clarke and the remodelling of FC because it seemed like a plot-device until now. Also great to hear some SOUND arguments from the Marone Board against Nick’s vendetta against the Forresters. Or take Thorne sharing his worries about Eric with Taylor...

This is well-written family drama and I’m so enjoying it - Keep it up, folks!

The special ‘I love B&B’s sense for humour-award’ meanwhile goes to Ridge aka Stephanie’s snitch who helped her to google Jerry Kramer. LOL! They were hilarious together and Stephanie is her twisted self again. So much for that epiphany, eh?

I have started a new poll to fill in for the missing TOP 10 (only as long as it is down). Once it comes back this will stop. The procedure of picking the ballot will change some next week. I got the idea for this too late to get it started this week.

Check it out at:

My introduction paragragh explains things. Hope everyone will participate.

Brilliance! The fashion show was just awesome. This cliffhanger - oh my gosh! Never thought Stephanie would go that far. I’d think Nick punching Captain Kramer was enough but La Forrester showed us that drama is much bigger with her voice-over. Fantastic show!

Clarke had lots of dialogue - wow. His deisgns were great as well. Too bad he got punched down by Thorne (what was that BTW????)....

Anyone recognize that the FC showroom has been remodelled. It looked fabulous with those new light system on the walls and the lit run-way... The set looked twice as big as before and came off pretty expensive. :)

What the [!@#$%^&*] was that? I don't think I've ever seen an episode so wildly OTT in the whole time I've watched B&B. Stephanie's always been a hateful, vindictive [!@#$%^&*] but she was like some kind of Bond villain with her henchmen Thorne and Ridge, before turning into a voice over the tannoy. The woman is constantly banging on about class and integrity yet never fails to make a public spectacle of herself at any large event where the media is present. Interesting though that La Flannery finally wore something other than her patented suits. Perhaps it's a New Year's resolution.

Thorne is an ass. I really didn't understand why he punched out Clarke, it was just too bizarre. They never saw fit to give the man a job so why the hell shouldn't he design for the Marones? And to think Stephanie and Clarke used to play kissyface all those years ago.

Even if I did think the episode was totally overblown, bits of it did amuse me. "Do you think prostitution should be legalised?" "How much did you charge?" :lol:

I'm actually enjoying all of this camp. LOL! And I'm cracking up everytime Stephanie sneaks in a whore crack at Jackie.

Did anybody seriously think that Stephanie was going to change? She must have turned a leaf only to revert back to her Overbearing Obsessive Mama Bear La Steph ways at least a dozen times by now. And that's the way I like her.

I for one thought that Friday's show not over-the-top at all - for B&B standards at least. It was pure soap opera, at the end a little bending the limits of real life, but ina an extremely good way.

Jackie should have consulted Sally, Sheila or even Lauren first before she crossed paths with Queenie. Steph goes on crusades when it concerns her family or the company. When it concerns both, well, I guess not even praying is sufficient anymore because Stephanie WILL strike. :lol:

Stephanie has always been that way and will never change. I was more shocked about Thorne's behaviour to be honest. It was so random and totally out of line. Poor Clarke, loved his designs.

    • 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.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
    • @janea4old Your detailed explanation and delving into the psychology and motivations is no doubt the opposite of what we will see onscreeen. As @ranger1rg stated we will get a few scenes and some sketchy explanations. Like the adoption of Aria, most of it will take place off screen.
    • I'm suddenly fearful that DAYS is going to pull a Flowers-for-Algernon stunt and Bo's progress will be reversed.  While @te. is stuck on Abe's tiny bedroom, I can't stop thinking of the size of Bo's huge hospital room.
    • Okay, why are Paulina and Abe sleeping like that?!  I'd take a screen grab if I wasn't lazy, but come on.
