I am actually shocked. That was a great 20 or so minutes of television. Everyone stepped up to the plate, from the acting, to the direction, and yes even the WRITING was on par for once. I hate that William DeVry is gone from the show now, but it's about time a soap opera did something SHOCKING and COMPELLING. Right now THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL has the BEST DRAMA SERIES EMMY in the bag. And Jennifer Gareis Emmy Reel is COMPLETE! I rarely give kudos to Brad Bell, but today, was just remarkable. I haven't seen something this heartbreaking from an ENSEMBLE since Cassie's Death on THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS!!!

OMG, this is possibly the best single episode I've seen on a soap all year long so far. It was definitely Emmy worthy, and B&B does appear to have a more ensemble feel to it again, which is only a good thing. If they can pull another episode like this off soon, I don't see how they can be denied an Emmy (even if there appears to be a bias against 30 min soaps these days, and B&B is the only soap using that format).

Y'know...they had me till the end with Brooke's slo-mo rush to Storm's room, Storm's convienent slumping out of camera sight, and Brooke somehow squalling that Storm had given Katie his heart by simply looking at her picture in his hand.

And while KKL really got me (even JW with his stony reserve...) Gareis just sucked.

But I did like most of the episode, it's far and away the best B&B episode since Felicia "died". Those pics, flashbacks and music really set the mood.

Disagree. Everything was set up beautifully. Gareis did NOT suck. The girl looked a MESS, tears everywhere, speaking compassionately. No way can I fault JG for this episode, she was right on the target. The slow motion rush is actually what got me.

Wow!!!! That was one of the best B&B episodes I've ever seen. The music, the acting, the fake-flashbacks......my eyes started to get watery. :(

Sadly, it will. It's a B&B tradition to be good, bad, good, bad, good, bad, etc.
