I somewhat liked Nick/Katie but this prom thing is too much. LOL I think I'm over them now. B&B is just pushing them together way too hard.

I want to see more of Marcus and Steffy. It's the only thing interesting right now.

Wasn't the Katie story the only thing shown today? I didn't really understand the prom thing. Was that referring to something at the very beginning of the show? If so, I didn't pick up on it. I still can't see how they're going to get out of this without making her magically get better, ie Felicia. They said she had a fever today so I don't see how she can be faking it.

WORD on Steffy and Marcus.

It was good to see Phoebe today, but is it too much to have ONE scene with Steffy and Phoebe yet?

I like the Katie stuff, though I agree, sooo forced and feeling kind of like what's the point, we know at the end Katie is going to live, be in love with Nick, and they are together

I think the Nick/Katie stuff is the weakest part of the show. I could care less about them

I just noticed that we havent seen Hope in a long while. I wonder if she will be the next to get SORASED

I was like...WTF?? With this prom thing? Katie's somehow been scarred since her prom, and giving her a happy ending to that will make dying easier? HUH??? What about calling her mother?

I really hate LAD's blonde hair. HATE.

I did love how the entire city of LA has banded together to make Katie's last days special---except for the normally morally-upright Taylor, who's suddenly too busy boffing Katie's MIA nephew Rick.

That's worse than anything Ron Moss wears on the red carpet. Just all kinds of wrong.

I so wanted to hear some old school 80's and a little "All I Need"

Im amazed at how abd nick/katie is. you idiots have ehather motherfreakin tom and jack wagner. why is there a need to push the char's way in these ott ways? Just tell a simple story of tem falling for eachother and let them act.

I am a new viewer to B&B so I am not 100% sure on all the history. But what I will say is that this Nick/Katie stuff is so forced. Everyone knows Katie has this crush on Nick and they are letting her grow more attached to a guy in a relationship because she is "dying". Whether you read any spoilers or not, it isn't hard to figure out Katie won't die but she and Nick will have these feelings for each other. This whole prom was completely a way to force us to cheer for Nick/Katie and all it did for me was turn me off to the pairing. I just feel like everyone in town is making it so Katie takes her niece's boyfriend (I think I figured out the family tree correctly) away.

Agreed, I think Blake became a woman who learned from her mistakes and grew up. I too wanted them to be the core couple after the Tori thing, as a matter of fact, around Wheeler after Simon left I wanted them to move into the Bauer house..( I would have Blake say that this is the closet thing she knew as a home )SORAS the kids, and bring Sam back..Dinah would have a very contentious relationship with her, as she would be jealous of Ross and Sam's relationship, and Blake and Dinah would have that tension (ya, know cause she killed his brother) it would be a core family that had some fissures leading to good drama. But now, Wheeler and company though the Coopers should be the core.

BTG: December 2025 Discussion Thread

Agree that great minds can think alike :)
In terms of Derek, I see the show doing one of two things based on the most recent episodes that featured him.
1) They do the gradual fade-out of the character until he stops appearing and is occasionally mentioned by Jacob (i.e. still living and existing in town, just not being seen). We saw some evidence with him having a group of co workers he's friends with, plus a female co worker interested in him... so possibly we see him regain his walking and go back to his life with the Fire crew and eventually we stop seeing them on air.
2) His mentioning to Jacob that he hopes to win Ashley back signals that perhaps the dark side we saw glimpses of has been hidden and will rear itself if she appears to be moving on with a new guy.
In terms of Ashley, the show seems committed to keeping her character on the show especially since she was shown in the Thanksgiving episode having a quiet day with Jan and Mona as they discuss Black Friday shopping, food, and other day to day matters... so I think delving into her backstory in terms of who her father is would be a good place for the show to go while keeping her as a good friend to Naomi, Shanice, and a good nurse during medical stories.
Perhaps one of the children of the handsome new doctor could be her love interest down the line.

Re: 1978. I'm glad the unedited version of the episode complete with commercials is available. The one that has been posted several years ago had several segments missing. I like Barbara's long hair here. Dr. Steven Farrell didn't last very long I take it since she is re-connecting with Tom (Tom Tammi) by 1979. The actor playing Steven (Phil Peters) was the real-life husband of Lenore Kasdorf (Rita GL).

Oh, how I wish we'd gotten to see Ross deal with his teenage sons. I loved his relationships with Phillip and Sam, but he really deserved to be seen with his own kids (other than the horror that became Dinah). The boys simply disappeared off canvas after either the Nursery Stalker or the affair with Tori.

What I liked about Bloss is that I liked how they grew to be the stable couple- the closest to an Ed and Mo in their prime. Especially after the Tori story when their extra-marital exploits were in the past. I wanted them to SORAS the three kids, along with Dinah and with Phillip's family as Ross's extended family would really be solid core family material.
With that said, I was rooting against Bloss in 1999 as I really liked the Ross/India pairing-- but that just turned out to be a waste of MKA.

They did actually resolve who shot Austin over a year later (it was Cyrus, as part of his hasty exit story). That was a last minute save though clearly when they forgot lol.

Talkin' 'Bout TV Movies

I love those old TV movies, especially the ones from the 70's and 80's. The ABC movie of the week had a ton of them. Like
Satan's School for Girls (1973)
All My Darling Daughter's (1972)
Gidget Gets Married (1972)
The Girl Who Came Gift Wrapped (1974)
The Two Worlds of Jenny Logan (1979)
The Boy in the Plastic Bubble (1976)
Death Cruise (1974)
Here is the 70's ABC opening. The theme music "Nikki" was composed by Burt Bacharach and named for his daughter with Angie Dickinson.

Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

The return of sitcoms' popularity in the mid-'80s was a real thing, but the crash of the wealth-based nighttime soap genre was resonate and self-induced.

There was an effectively grim finality to the mood of the cliffhangers in the Spring of 1985: Bobby's death, the Moldavian massacre, the return of Val's babies... and they felt as if they could have ended right there (and perhaps they should have, although I would have sorely missed S10 of Dallas, S6 of FC, and Season 9 of Dynasty , and the next five years of KNOTS as they singularly maintained quality).

But, wow, these shows just fell apart post-Spring 1985. They stopped being character dramas after a while, and just started trying to "impress" viewers in some superficial way and to "fake it" somehow.

What a painful, unnecessary slide it was. But once these shows seemed to lose their identities, their sense of self, their momentum into the dung heap couldn't be slowed.
