Really guys? You didn't like it? I found it surprising when it was happening too, but I think it had that kind of artsy flavor.... A visual representation of Taylor's loneliness?

It was quite inventive, although maybe not too well executed.

Hahahahahahahahahahhahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

tay has lost it all! nick! ridge! baby jack! and they all are going to brooke!

tay is so pathetic!

soon enough she'll lose rick since he'll eventually dump her tired, old self. then she'll lose phoebe, who'll be furious tay's been getting her claws into rick because of baby jack's maternity!

tay should just kill herself.

exactly!

and hunter tylo can't carry emotional scenes.

remember when tay confessed to thorne she murdered darla?

all i could focus on was tay's head bobbing, hair shaking and enormous lips. hunter tylo, to this day, cannot act! she and ronn moss deserve to be paired together!

B&B is in an odd state right now. I think it is past time they relize how to use a great cast. There is no reason for us to obly see nick/brooke/ridge. no i didnt include taylor in that because IMHO, shes nothing more than a roadblock for brooke and her soulmate of the moment nick.

as for HT, she has actually impressed me recently. never have been a fan of hers, but shes on the same level that KKL, RM, & JW is.

HT, ED, LK, WH are being wasted away whil RM, KKL, HT, & JW are being force fed.

OMG! Ashamed to say I have never seen these scenes before. That was hilarious! Ronn Moss could barely keep it together when TayTeen was teaching him those dance steps.

I liked Pierce (even though he was a James Warwick replacement). His hobbit assistant was so obviously in love with him.

I love me some camp, too (Kimberly and CJ's 70s disco party holds a special place in my heart, as does any catfight involving big, butch stuntmen in wigs). But I like that B&B rations out the camp with some honest-to-goodness drama. If we had camp all the time, B&B would be Passions. And that gets tired real fast.

Plus, nothing is campier than taylor collapsing in the courtroom under her very own Liza Minelli spotlight. No? :P

I guess they were going for something moody and artistic. If you ask me, though, it only served to take away some of the impact of that moment. Taylor's losing "her" son is a BFD; and yet.....

Nah; I mean exactly like you said. For me B&B camp is far away from that sense of Passions. It always used to be fun, humour with a purpose - and to lighten the other stories. TAylor's CABARET performance isn't cutting it at all because it is cheesy of cheap GH or DAYS proportions...

I am loving the whole Taylor/Rick thing. Alden is taking it really slow, a kiss here and there! SO unlike B&B.

Loved seeing Bridget again and it's always sad when they show her looking at Nicole's stuff. I'm not sure what's up with the whole "Get back with Nick thing" but I'm glad it's giving her some screen time and I would be glad if it amounted to nothing because I don't think I want to see them together.

Ridge actually made sense for the first time in YEARS. I haven't seen Thursday's episode yet, so I hope to God that Brooke sticks with him and that the whole Bricky thing ends. SOON.

And where's that engagement party? Were this Bell writing, we would have already had it an episode after Felicia first mentioned it. Not that I'm complaining, I think it builds up the tension.

    • I would be lying if I said I cared about the direction of this Mama June storyline. Doesn't make me care that much for Jacob or Naomi...although I actually want to know these characters better, but just not in this capacity.  Honestly, it would be best if she's somehow connected to Hayley, because that character is seriously in a corner. Even after all they did, Eva and Leslie have more reason to interact with the rest of the cast.   
    • -- Great scenes with Andre and Nicole. -- I hope Dani loses Andre because she wants to keep him hidden. He deserves better, and I have no idea why she's acting that way. -- The hair stuff with Eva at the end was fun, but does she carry hair pieces and extensions with her, too? -- Samantha looks 30 lately. I can't unsee it now that I know. -- I am glad we already see Eva and Samantha getting along. I didn't want weeks of Samantha shading her. -- Clifton Davis was pretending he can't sing, and that didn't work. It looked like we were watching someone pretending he can't hit a note. -- They need to step up this Anita storyline. Watching her and Vernon praise each other every day is getting tiresome. -- Hayley clearing Bill's desk to have sex was cringe. He enjoyed it, but it won't be long before he realizes he married a little girl instead of a woman.
    • @Jason47 For Your Information, generally.  I have just exchanged emails with the Paley Center. They got back to me within 24 hours!!  They have  However,  I have suggested to them that it is a clerical error Hart instead of Hunter but gave them the info on her years, her character name & that she did indeed marry David Martin. I referred her to imdb & wiki to double check me, should she wish to make a notation.  Now for the bad news:  So, that's a shame. If anyone is in the vicinity, you can view videos sitting in a cubicle. I did so when we lived in Brooklyn. Their hours: The Paley Center is open to the public Wednesday through Sunday from noon to 6 p.m.
    • The way Andre held Dani afterwards, be still my heart. They think its only booty call hook ups, but I'm sensing a love slowly growing.  Way too much booty popping LOL.
    • I'm just pleased the homeless plotline has a point. I'm surprised they're going here this soon with the kids.
    • All caught up on May 2025, and it was rough. Truly rough.

    • I'll focus on the positives: 1. VP has been an unexpected addition to the cast. I wasn't thrilled that Amy had been recast simply to eliminate her. Gotta give props that Josh saw more. Amy actually works as the glue for the Winters/Hastings family. The surprise Audra/Amy relationship has added depth to both characters. 2. Victor/Phyllis. It was fun to watch Victor undercut every single Phyllis pitch/bluff. MS played this well. No way Phyllis can get away with histrionics with Victor. It was a nice touch that Victor acknowledged Phyllis' trauma, but that he knows her all to well. 3. Chelsea reading Billy. MCE is being wasted when Chelsea is a victim. Look at how much more interesting Chelsea has been challenging Billy and Adam. Please bring Chelsea back to life. Same with Adam. 4. Anyone else notice that AG sometimes plays this homoerotic vibe with Adam/Billy. Like that look he gave Billy when Adam exited the bar. Since it's neither actor was there during the Delia s/l, it's just a lot tougher to sell the animosity. Since she's always been there, EH's pain with all the Adam's sticks.
    • 1) A-M had an inferiority complex when it came to Phillip. Alan had adopted Phillip (his wife Elizabeth had a stillbirth, Alan then had the babies switched) and always favored him. When A-M came to town, he got involved with Blake as his marriage to Harley was disintergrating, and Blake was married to Phillip at the time (but that marriage was crumbling because a) Beth was alive and b ) Blake kept that from Phillip). But by the time Phillip left town in '91, he and Alan-Michael were on good terms. So whatever A-M's referring to is writer laziness to further this plot. 2) Meredith Reade Bauer was Fletch's sister and Rick's ex-wife. Their marriage broke up after she discovered she couldn't have any more children. After a fight, Meredith and Phillip slept together, she got pregnant. Right before they got married, Rick realized, thanks to a sonogram, that he couldn't be the father. I believe Meredith just told him it was a random ONS, and he accepted that. Meredith had complications, and Rick couldn't decide whether to save her life or the baby's. He asked Phillip to decide for him, and Phillip chose Meredith. It wasn't until after that Rick found out that Phillip was the father, and had chosen Rick's wife over his child.  Not sure why Rick/Blake were "at odds", other than by that time Blake had married Ross, who was Phillip's biological uncle. Phillip's bio parents are Justin and Jackie Marler. 3) Back in '90, Phillip was accused of killing Beth's ex-lover Neil Everest. (Neil was killed by a bomb he planted the night of The Towers opening. He had planned to kill Phillip (and there's some weird twist where Neil had killed his wife and her children in a building collapse or something...but anyway..)  But Gary Swanson (who was plotting with Neil for some strange reason) knocked Neil out and saved Phillip.  Neil had already planted evidence implicating Phillip in the bombing (to make it look like he had been caught in his own trap), so he was charged.  Phillip, Beth and Rick faked Phillp's death. Rick and Phillip planted a cadaver and burned it in a car to make it look like an accident. Beth was pregnant with Lizzie at the time. To divert suspicion, (Mallet was already skeptical that Phillip was alive) Rick and Beth married, which upset Mindy (who was trying to start things back up with Rick) and knew nothing about the plot. When it all came out, Rick, Beth and Phillip were all given community service, and I believe Rick's MD license was suspended. Beth and Phillip went to Arizona, and Rick (I think) first got help from his uncle Mike to start community service out of state.   
    • I can't answer 1 & 3, but I can answer this: Meredith is Fletcher's sister. She's a doctor. She and Rick fell in love. At one of the Bauer 4th of July BBQs, they had a fight. She ran into Phillip at a bar and the two of them ended up having sex. Rick and Meredith reconciled and...you guessed it, she turned up pregnant. She didn't know for sure who the father was but she let Rick think it was his. Just before their wedding, he saw a sonogram picture. Being a doctor, he could tell how far along she was and realized he wasn't the father. He still went through with the ceremony (why, don't ask me) and afterwards confronted her about it. She told him she picked up a stranger at a bar. Rick was bitter about it but he still stayed with her. Eventually, the secret came out. Rick was furious about Phillip betraying him. Still, he stayed with Meredith (again, why, I don't know). She had a stillbirth and was left barren. Meredith finally decided to leave him and left SF for good. Rick was awful to her, including after losing the baby. Just was a creep about it. It was hard for me to ever like the character after this storyline. I don't knowl if one of the writers strikes was going on during this story, but it was so, so bad. Rick and Meredith had no chemistry. The way Rick stayed with her, the way she stayed with him, made zero sense to me.
