Lol well after what Katie went through, she's going to be the family spokesperson for medical miracles. Ugh I hope Bridget doesn't pop up with a cure in a week or two.

I don't understand why Beth went to Brooke's house. She just wanted to look at more pictures? I was kind of expecting her to go see Eric and Stephanie.

Is it just me or is it difficult to come up with something to comment on with this show lately? It's like the same thing everyday. The Logans are boring me to tears.

It was kind of odd that Beth would go to Brooke's.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I wish there was something else going on beside Beth. I wish they'd pull Stephanie and Eric into that story and use some good history. And I don't really count Steffy and Marcus as a story, since it's just them flirting everyday.

Honestly, I can't say I watch all of the Beth stuff because it becomes a bit to much at times, but I'm SOO far gone on the "Steffy and Marcus are love" train I'm enjoying.

I thought their scenes today ROCKED@

memo to Brad Bell:

I get it. The Logan's are the new Forresters. Susan F. may retire sometime soon nad without her the Forresters are nothing - i mean, nevermind Thorne, Kristen, Felicia, Thomas, Jessica, and various others Forresters - and you need a new center family. I do give you props on picking a family of old B&B and building them up - but i am no longer drinking the juice you are trying to force upon me.

Katie is gonna die.

Storm kills himself

Beth's newest medical drama.

whats next? Stephen with cancer?

This is THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL not the trials and tribulations re heath issues with the logan family. Please, get back to the fashion and away from the hospital.

k, thanx.

Well put. I also am getting tired of seeing only 1.5 stories at a time....too little diversity of storytelling. I suspect this is a money-saving thing, because it means they use the same actors every day and can tape 5 episodes of shows in a single tape day or something.

All these crises would be tolerable if they WERE NOT SO SAPPY. I mean, on the heels of Storm's genuinely touching passing and the surgery (already sappy...the doctor said a prayer before cutting her, for criminy's sake...but that is classic soap)...then we have Katie's death prom???? And no sooner does that happen, but then we have mommy-with-memory issues? What sappy thing is to come to help Beth remember? A slide show? A handholding conversation down memory lane?

Can't. tolerate. it. I said in another thread I wouldn't quit...but I confess I have pretty much quit B&B. So, when you consider that at one time I watched the whole ABC lineup (70s through mid 80s), Another World (mid 80s only) and Bell soaps...and now I'm basically down to Y&R only (and finding that harder every day), I guess my deeds speak louder than my words.

The key is balance, obviously. And mixing it up.

Last year when the Logans came on, I was thrilled. For years I wanted Brooke to have a little support while Stephanie and the Forresters railroaded her about something or other.

However, Storm's death-mission aside -- and I'm still thinking getting rid of a charismatic male actor like William deVry was a BIG mistake for B&B -- the Logans have gotten way over-exposed. Like when the Marones were on 24/7 a couple of years back. I get that Brad loves Heather Tom and the biggest compliment he could possibly gave her character is to pair her with MulletNick, Overlord of Insta-Heroics. But I don't see why I can't give, say, Lesli Kay, Eileen Davidson and Susan Flannery a little frontburner love, too. Or even NewSpectra!

LOL. Brad must be desperate for a writing Emmy! Death = awards!

ITA, we are long overdue a Forrester/NuSpectra catwalk showdown. LOL, remember when Felicia and Thorne locked Donna in full make-up/costume in the FC steam-room? I sometimes wish they'd gone with the Ridge + FC vs. Thorne + Spectra route. Having Thorne break away and reinvigorate another fashion company was a story with so much potential. Brother vs brother etc.

Thorne *should* get fed up and quit. Takeover Spectra and make it legit. Take it to the top. Then have Ridge standing by daddys side at FC. Have Steph support Thorne and push him to greatness as she and eric still have thei odd bestfriends in a romance scenes about the kids.

Have Felicia torn. Bring back Jessica. Give Thorne a romance with Katie again and have her conflicted because of Donna.

Then, when the story need a twist - Brooke quits Forrester and joins Thorne at Spectra!

    • Tamara Tunie was serving up grand dame diva fierceness.
    • Nick told Victoria that he and Sharon had married in England.  Victoria was shocked.  Then she realized he was kidding.  He confirmed it was a joke and they're platonic. I don't even know what to say about that.
    • It's funny you say that because part of the entertainment of the trials on the show are all the day players who come on as witnesses and jurors.  I'm certain it was like the Law and Order of its time. It employed so many New York actors, that if you look close enough, there's usually someone vaguely recognizable in the courtroom.
    • I will defend Dante.  People already suspect he may be a bit unstable from time to time (from his time as a prisoner).  And, he's taking care of other people's kids from time to time.  So, he has reason to be cautious with those in his care.
    • Josh continues to try and milk Abbott/Newman rivalry. First it was Billy/Victoria, then Kyle/Summer, then Noah/Allie (that worked out well) and now Kyle/Claire. Do we have any inkling when Billy Flynn will arrive and who he will play? I'm sure Cole's illness will mostly play offscreen. What's in store for Nick and Sharon? Is it time to put them back together? I can't see any other romantic options. Nick has no children on the canvas to play off, as Christian is never seen. Sharon has only Mariah onscreen.
    • I would appreciate (if they're not coming), for future scripts to refer to them by their iconic hairdos.  For example, if Hope needs to call Chelsea because Bo has Sepsis, I'd like Shawn-D to say, "My Mom called Chelsea (the one with the sassy short black hair) for an update." Also, new rule, if Melanie does return, she needs to dye her hair back to red.  I googled who she was five times during Victor's funeral.

    • Broderick, thank you for all of the info [I edited for space]. I am so grateful for everyone filling in the blanks for me. I suspected the Nora/Eliot scene was very important and it was setting something up but I didn't know what. Can't wait to see it play out. The two actors had such a great back and forth. I should have made the Paige/Patty Hearst connection. I thought Paige was in love with Brian from the first episode I watched but it seemed as if they were brother and sister. Steve kept being affectionate with her so I assumed he was the love interest. Then she was affectionate with someone else and well..she's a very busy woman. I can't wait to see Frances Fisher show up. (I'm trying to be vague because I don't know what would be a spoiler in this storyline) Now it makes sense why Draper would be upset. I didn't get the whole background of why he didn't go to NY. I'm a sucker for good acting, so I might still side with April and Margo, if the writers don't give Draper more to do besides yelling.  He had more chemistry with Logan, but I know that's not happening.  Something else I noticed: the show really takes care with even the smallest parts. The acting is superb. Too often, I noticed on older soaps they don't take care with the recurring or day players (Ryan's Hope was so bad with this that I couldn't make it through some episodes). It's only been six episodes, but so far, the casting department was spot on.
    • I thought Dante was overreacting.  Gio made some mistakes but he's young and he tried.  It's not like he dragged two 14 years to a party and made them get blackout drunk.  Dante can have the initial upset reaction, but to go on and on was a bit much.  
    • His (adoptive) nieces.  Chelsea and Stephanie.  I think Abby was involved too, but I am not sure if they are related lol.
    • That was such a dark story. I never liked Swamp girl after that. And then the dating your cousin thing. I think wasn’t Max in a triangle with two of his cousins?
