I think the nixed crossover was Lily from Y&R.

Also - I don't think this actress Robin Riker is very good. I've seen her before and she's always been ok (she was great on Buffy!). she just doesn't seem to be a counter-point to Stephanie. Stephen, on the other hand, is a great foil to Eric. And they have her wearing these horrible clothes. And not that Beth or Stephen ever looked like their kids but she REALLY doesn't come accross as their mother. More like some sick, poor Aunt.

I had such high hopes for Beth. I envisioned she'd be played by some uber-witch like Donna Mills and come in with both guns blazing. I was hoping they would make her very bitter towards the Forresters and that she'd blame her abscence on them ruining her family or some crap like that. Oh how I long for the days when soaps had budgets!!!

Now Beth is going to have some rambling dementia disease and will not be formidible against Stephanie. One poster said the Logans were supposed to be the new Forresters, but they aren't. If I were to fix B&B i'd cure all the Logans ASAP of all their various diseases and disorders and get them back in the fight and really do a clash of the Lo's vs. Fo's.

The Logans have been having the same convo's for months, since they found out Storm shot Stephanie. They just changed the name of the Logan everyone was concerned about.

Why does their outdoor stuff look more staged than anyone else's?

So was Lauren's when she went to B&B.

And Ashley's.

Jackie needs to die. srsly. i hate her and always have.

B&B should hire Patrika Darbo as Sally's sister and have her come take over Spectra.

Or have lauren Fenmore buy it and move back to L.A.

oh and i *loved* the new shots between scens of LA and the outside filming.

He's mostly look. Great looks and I say this as a straight male.

For DAYS (pre-Marnie Saitta) standards he was a very capable. Considering that even Kyle Lowder got some acting sense on B&B, I guess he could do good or great things in L.A. - he's definitely much an improvement over Brad's past summer pastine hunks Sabato, Lopez et al.

As for Beth: she was a protective mom but very fair and reserved. She took Queen Stephanie's disses like a pro :lol: before she got carted off to Paris by her and Bill Spencer. Speaking of whom: Since Patrick Duffy isn't ready for a fulltime commitment, I highly suggest bringing back Jim Storm as the older male to this show.

I FLOVED Bill! Plus Storm and Flannery had insane sparring partner chemistry.

I guess. Lily just seems more random than them to me.

And it does seem like Beth has been saying the same thing over and over. It was okay the first time, but they've been having the same conversation for 3 or 4 days now.

They NEED another another older male if PD doesn't want to stay on full time. Beth, Stephanie, Jackie, and possibly Pam (on and off) can't all be after Eric.

    • Yes, just so.  Thanks for the info. I could tell this was going to be a big thing with ShawnD in this danger! Especially love that the little guy is Andrew!
    • I think the shocker would be if he's NOT playing Dumas. That's where Josh Griffith plays most of his stories. Now they have Cole "self-isolating" because they don't want to put up that hospital set. Will Cole cough himself to death at the GCAC? What a "storyline." I can't believe how much JG is playing with us regarding Nick and Sharon. The teasing has become pathetic, especially for Shick fans who want them back together. My guess is that he'll reveal his real name once he is exposed.
    • Maybe we'll meet Leslie's mama who'll be a former Articulette and they'll build the rival family from there that a lot of people seem to think is missing. It'd make sense considering Anita's been hammering on about going on tour and reviving her music career. 
    • hahaha at the Brennan shade.   But even I saw this and have to agree. What's really sad is that some of the person on that list could easily have a love interest that is on the canvas. They just need to be written for. 
    • The thought has crossed my mind. Tricia Mann-Grant did say in her EW interview w/ MVJ and DD, that Leslie wants to be a Dupree just as bad as she wants Eva to be. I believe now that's the direction they are going in, that maybe she is just obsessed with the family. I could be wrong though.
    • True. But I have always had mixed feelings about that twist. Since I love the Damian storyline which already had twists and turns. Also I could not wait for a new powerful AND BLACK businessman to mix it up at some point with Victor. It just seem like another twist that was added on for twist sake. And also for a character (whether I love him or not) to hijack a new and refreshing storyline so they can be propped.    Once good thing that I can say about JG is that he loves to keep the Abbotts in rotation. So I could see that happening with Diane. I don't think she has mentioned her backstory, either. I would be intrigued. 
    • That's how I feel. Beats could have been played for the past couple months wherein Dante and Gio interacted and had a difference of opinion -- or something. I don't know. I do know that this crushing rant that blames everything on Gio is absurd. -- Reading over all the comments here about characters and couples, it's kind of amazing that we have any show left considering the number of times actors and writers and execs were given influence to make major character and story decisions. Too many cooks in the kitchen.
    • Lol. But Jeffrey was weak to mama. Leslie can go dead because anger is a great motivator via Martin defending HIS mama and just not taking ish altogether. This ain't how it should be. They need not run the show like this. It's too noticeable. The way Eva said mama reminded me of Penny from Good Times. Instead of physical abuse it's mental abuse.
    • Oh, I see! You posted this on the general retro soap thread because of the voiceover.
    • Yeah, I agree. It's part of the reason I have shade picked on Martin's Secret being so on the backburner that it was about to fall off of it. With Dani/Bill/Hayley being the main tale to start us off and backburned and the SilkPress storyline being well paced, but not set to explode until May, Martin's Secret was the other main storyline that could have been developed. And after giving it a nice slow burn to start off, the story upped and vanished in Month 2. That left the show having to rely on mostly B/C stories to stay afloat to various degrees of success.
