B&B could absolutely afford Joan Collins on recurring. Joan Collins likes to work, not that she works for terrible money, but she just likes to work and isn't a snob when it comes to salary.

I do like Lesley Anne Down, but she cannot drive story, it isn't the writing, she simply doesn't have it in her. She needs to be replaced or play second fiddle to a woman who can drive storyline as a glam bitch (ie: Fairchild and Collins).

Morgan Fairchild has NOT had excessive plastic surgery, she's a hard core sunscreen user and it has literally saved her looks! From my professional view, she's had her eyes done and Botox for certain. She MAYBE had her nose refined, but I am thinking it's more about her makeup. She's also likely had some chemical peel/laser/Thermage work to maintain her skin. I don't see evidence of a face lift, her hairline hasn't changed one iota. She's also had breast implants (saline in my opinion, they look great). She is beautiful.

Morgan and Joan for B&B!

Of course the expert DaytimeFan beat me to it, but I was just going to defend Morgan re: excessive plastic surgery. I really don't think she's had that much at all, and whatever she has had, the woman has Susan Lucci smarts in terms of work on her money maker. Someone once asked Morgan about cosmetic surgery in an interview and she said something to the effect of, "You know, I really don't like to get into all that." She has defended it herself, but I've seen photo proof when she was still little Patsy McClenny wearing cat-eye glasses in elementary school that she has always had that pinched nose. As DF said, maybe it was "refined" at some point, but it looks a lot like the original. Maybe a lot of it is genes, but she and Donna Mills have aged the best of the blondes in the '80s primetime soap clique.

I think Morgan looks better than Susan Lucci and that's saying something!

Morgan and Donna Mills do look AWESOME. Can you believe Donna is 69?! She looks fabulous and she's another one who I am certain has done little in terms of plastic surgery. It's all about sun damage. People scoff at that, but it's the truth, sun damage is responsible for at least 75% of facial aging.

I have heard Morgan's views on plastic surgery and skincare and nutrition. She could do my job. I mean that seriously. She knows what she's talking about, very, very well educated. I'm quite an admirer of her knowledge base as a patient. Of course, she would be a perfectionist, but that's the standard everyone should aspire to, so I'm all for it.

Of the blond clique, you're right, Morgan and Donna are the best. Michelle Phillips looks good, older, but still attractive. Susan Sullivan (of Falcon Crest) also looks more mature, but she has a very classy quality that is ageless, she's very refined looking. Then, you have Joan Van Ark, who is a LOVELY person but went way overboard and Linda Evans who is not as lovely as she appears to be and looks, if you ask me, the worst out of all of them, those lips, the facial implants...terrible.

Morgan and Joan for B&B!

And the woman aged well. Damn insanely well. She knows who does good surgery. She is like a 70 year old barbie doll that looks 45.

That embarrassing Lisa Rinna should take note. (Have you seen her on the streets with signs begging to be on the sure to be terrible Melrose Place remake???

That show would be smart to get someone like Morgan Fairchild. I have always liked her.

I agree with all of this. If Morgan was going to be set up for a long term role (and God knows B&B needs that kind of stability), she needs to be an essentially good person driven by a vendetta. Bitch to those who deserve it and sparing of those who don't - not dissimilar to the Racine role she played on Paper Dolls. I'd like her to blast into town with a huge grudge against the Forresters, using another fashion house/Eye on Fashion in an attempt to dismantle them piece by piece until it is finally revealed months down the line why she hates them so much. I want her to be tied into history somehow but not in a way that she's related to the core families or something dismal like being Massimo's first wife.

She could have been an up and coming designer who was rejected by Eric in the 70s. Shane's mother who blames the sick Forrester dynamics for driving her son over the edge - even Stephanie was involved in moving his body around like a dead animal. Darla's mother who has a similar rage and feels tremendous guilt over abandoning her daughter to a life in foster care. The daughter of someone John Douglas drove out of business. There are endless possibilities.

Especially as she wouldn't be stuck against the plank of wood that is Bo Derek.

Bless her. She claims she was filming it for a TV skit and I think I believe her. I vaccilate between thinking she's either a totally tragic fantasist or that she's incredibly down to earth. At the moment I'm erring towards the latter. Okay she's not all about the class but I like that she doesn't seem to give a [!@#$%^&*].

      I can't watch until later (Canada issues). What is Philip's motivation for stealing the drug? Only plot I cared about today and you did not mention it

      Doug III’s first day of work. Hope he does a good job… or that Tate tries to sabotage him somehow

      Please register in order to view this content

      His scenes with Holly were nice though. They’re sweet together and I understand why some people think that they have more chemistry than Tate/Holly do. And I liked that Doug III opened up to her about his past. Maybe that could lead to something good happening in the future.  I also enjoyed Roman and Kate, and how they’re both being tied into EJ’s shooting. The mystery of it all is really compelling. I don’t think Roman is the shooter though either.  I didn’t have much sympathy for Kristen though. She has no one to blame for Rachel’s problems than herself. But at the same time, I’m really surprised that Days actually remembered the Alex/Kristen fling. I thought Ron had erased that from existence. I’m not shipping them at all, but I’m definitely shipping a permanent end to Brady/Kristen but after today, I’m not so sure about that either.  And, Johnny and Chanel were still great together

      Some country club revelation thoughts from a casual watcher no one asked for. The Great: Daphnee Duplaix gave the best performance we've seen yet. Nicole's dialogue was also well thought out and felt character specific. TJ Maxx Ted was also pretty good. Trisha Mann-Grant steals every scene she's in. Often without even trying. Carrying multiple episodes worth of exposition heavy soap dialogue with starts and stops and recapping and drama and humor is no small feat and she nailed. Vernon telling Lesliana to STFU.  The Bad: So much of the dialogue for the rest of the cast was overly written. Martin said "You are a vile human being with a hole in your heart!". Marty, what are we doing? It's SO dramatic and sounds so silly coming from this grown man. Do Bill and Hayley do anything but talk about the Duprees? And the nerve of her to get so excited to find out Ted is a cheater when she and her husband are too. There should be a hint of shame mixed in with your glee, ma'am. The Questionable: Coffee and a rendition of Amazing Grace after finding out Nicole was betrayed by her husband. The Duprees are an odd bunch. The stinger of one segment had Anita prepared to lambast Lesliana, when we came back someone else was talking. When Anita eventually said something to Wig, it was a lukewarm at best. And then of course she thought singing a song about something that should absolutely not be extended to her son-in-law. The entire family allowing this deranged woman to speech at them in their own was...nuts. I know she said something about what would the neighbors say but my GOD. Is she just going to be allowed to trespass whenever she feels like it now? The focus on Leslie and her wig usage as an oddity is...odd. I think Chelsea said something like "and she wears wigs!" (while wearing a buss down middle part). Okay? It's just not that odd for a black woman to change up her hair. It's the different names that's the problem. I know it's meant to be humorous, in a throwback soap kind of way, but it fell flat for me.  I'm sorry I find the whole family to be WEIRD. It's like they want us to see them as ruthless yet benevolent, open yet furtive, snobbish yet tooth achingly sweet all at the same time. I cannot get a lock on the family dynamics. Everyone is just there.  I'm gonna cry if this show doesn't start giving us ages (or close to it!) for these characters. Because if Eva is 21-22 then Martin was being given crayons, a soda pop and blinders when he was 15-17 years old. Martin had to have been under 8 for me to buy this story, which would make Eva and Kat late 20s (Martin is at least 35 since he wants to run for president), which I don't think they're meant to be. It's honestly minor but it bothers me. I've mentioned this to @Vee but I think the optics on opening the show with both sisters discovering their husbands of over 30 years are cheaters should've been considered. I doubt there was any intention behind it, no one's rubbing their hands together as they scheme to say the married black men can't stay loyal but how does it look? Maybe it's just me. Honestly it's probably just me!

      For a homeless woman, June sure has nice teeth. I agree Ted didn't bring the power in the fallout scenes but to can him and leave Tomas, Martin and Derek onscreen? i'm not looking forward to Martin's secret being revealed and have him flail in the spotlight scenes. Yes, he's got a little better, but... When someone like Timon delivers with every line reading, you wonder how some other casting decisions were made. And I need sunglasses every time characters are at Uptown-is that green paint left over from GL's Cedars Hospital makeover? And for the cliffhanger, instead of the Door dash nonsense, simply have Leslie encounter Vanessa on her way out and push past her to enter. As there is no front door have Leslie barge into the living room, with Vanessa following.  Then Nicole can tell Vanessa- it's OK she can leave them alone.

      My question was basically is Dani the only character to have a bedroom? And then the response was Jacob and Naomi ONLY have a bedroom as their set .
