Members detroitpiston Posted July 4, 2008 Members Share Posted July 4, 2008 I agree with everything but the bolded part. With the right writing, Heather could be the next Susan Flannery. She proved that on Y&R and OLTL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bandbfan Posted July 4, 2008 Members Share Posted July 4, 2008 I guess I'm in the minority but I don't really want Amber back. I don't think she fits in that well on Y&R, but I don't think she would on B&B now. All of the new young characters on B&B seems too.....mature for her, maybe? Although I could probably tolerate her if they had her work for Jackie in a competitive fashion house against Forrester. I am hopeful that with Steffy, Marcus, and Owen, B&B can get some of it's young-ness back. SF, LAD, PD, and the others are great, but I think we need some youngsters around too. And about Heather Tom. I do think she's amazing. But some of her material has been so repetitive that a small part of her is becoming tiresome. Give her something fresh to do.

Members MarkH Posted July 4, 2008 Members Share Posted July 4, 2008 I don't think we will EVER see Flannery on the front burner again. She is retiring, and it shows. Taylor has been RUINED. She could be brought back, but I don't know if Brad wants the real Taylor (strong, stable matriarch) on his show. And Brooke...also RUINED...unless she can mature past a "young girl who lives based on hopes and dreams". Much as I like KKL, I wonder if she has the chops to play a more mature Brooke?

Members MarkH Posted July 4, 2008 Members Share Posted July 4, 2008 This seems kind of like a funny thread for "spoilers" :-). I have decided I like the new rocky, fast-cut scene transitions. BUT...the show doesn't match it yet. So, I just saw one (watching real time for once a year!) where we saw these scenes of LA/Beverly Hills and a shimmering pool...and it all looked good. Close up on a window. Okay...we're going inside. But then...inside...we have a slow, classic conversation with Katie and Brooke. The interiors (pacing, style) doesn't match the exteriors at all. If they don't bring these elements in harmony, it is pointless. This is one show that is so staid...so landlocked...I'd love to see stylistic transitions within the scenes too. ETA: While pacing could be fixed on the rooftop scenes, I'm totally loving the exteriors. Moving trees, sunlight...it all adds a lot to the scenes. I actually think GL looks beautiful often now too...especially the Bill Lewis wedding yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted July 4, 2008 Members Share Posted July 4, 2008 Where is JamesF? He is the best person to tell us how B&B should look. I especially liked his remarks about Stephanie's mansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bandbfan Posted July 4, 2008 Members Share Posted July 4, 2008 It's much easier to have the entrance right in to the living area for logistics purposes. That way you leave the "door open" (sorry for the pun) for people to just walk in or walk out easily, instead of having them go down a hallway.

Members MarkH Posted July 4, 2008 Members Share Posted July 4, 2008 Remind me what Santa Barbara did in this regard. I seem to recall they had some kind of foyer, but it still opened easily into the main room. (I'm talking Capwell mansion). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bandbfan Posted July 4, 2008 Members Share Posted July 4, 2008 I suppose. The only set that I would change would be Stephanie's house, as to me it looks a little bare. I think the other houses are fine, that's just me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 4, 2008 Members Share Posted July 4, 2008 I think they should build 50 small, standing sets that never need to be torn down. They could convert Brad Bell's office into the chapel or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
