Members MarkH Posted July 23, 2009 Members Share Posted July 23, 2009 I don't know. McVicar looked to me like he was actually aging naturally (except for the fact that he once, for a day, had grey-white hair). What do I know? JMW. For that matter, JMW, DTB (whom I used to like), Hty, and RM have all succeeded in reaching my threshold. I am able to enjoy B&B without any of them. Seriously, as far as I can tell, they have all been fired from B&B. When it comes to that foursome, my FF-button serves as writer/producer/director/editor. I skip them, and the commercials attached to them. I enjoy the show sooooooooooooooooo much more that way, and I don't feel like I'm missing anything.

Members Sapounopera Posted July 23, 2009 Members Share Posted July 23, 2009 Mark you are so right, Ridge and Taylor's family is a disaster. PS: LAD looks stunning. When Nick leaves town with Bridget and Jack (after Ridge and Taylor's wedding and their decision to move to Europe with their kids and run Forrester International), she will need a young daughter/niece. A young version of Macy who should be paired with Rick after they recast with Eric Winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MarkH Posted July 24, 2009 Members Share Posted July 24, 2009 We'll agree to disagree . Honestly, I'm sort of an outlier, because I didn't like her from the first moment, and my estimation has only gone down. But as much as I'm enjoying the rise of Spectra and Whip, I found today's episode too over-the-top. Still, it was fun compare to downer that is Tridge, Bridge, and Stephanie meddling in all of it. Does Whip have his eye on the Cougar?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taiah Posted July 24, 2009 Members Share Posted July 24, 2009 Yup, Whip has his eye on the Cougar so a Owen/Jackie/Whip TRI is coming. Whose down for Whickie? I'm just glad Whip is not for Brooke this time. Keep him away from the black hole that is Bridge/Tridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 24, 2009 Members Share Posted July 24, 2009 Yeah I agree...except that Brooke was actually FUN with him. I loved how she pulled the wool over his eyes for a minute. Ric Hearst seems to be bringing the fun to the set! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taiah Posted July 24, 2009 Members Share Posted July 24, 2009 Oh I agree for that brief moment she was able to laugh and have some fun. Then she had to go pick up the damn Ridge picture and sob again. And yup Hearst is bringing fun and energy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BadZoe Posted July 24, 2009 Members Share Posted July 24, 2009 I don't know, but she just looks different than she did when she started. PJ mentioned plastic and that might be part of it but something else just seems off. And shouldn't Brooke have known it wasn't Ridge when the text said, "That picture means nothing to me now"? Ridge has never had pictures with Brooke that mean nothing to him, which is why he always used to burn them up before rebound proposing to Taylor.

Members P.J. Posted July 24, 2009 Members Share Posted July 24, 2009 You know what would be refreshing? Characters that didn't decide to get married to someone else twenty-four hours after dumping "the love of their life". It happens on every friggin' show now. I can't wait for little Hope and RJ to start punking Taylor in an effort to "reunite their family" because Ridge represents the stability she deserves. And of course, the fact that they're actually children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NorrthCafe Posted July 25, 2009 Members Share Posted July 25, 2009 I can't even bother to FF any more. I just don't watch. This show is so absurd I can't stomach it. I said I would tune in for BRidget (and heck, Felicia and Thorne days) but the writers have given me no reason to tune in. FTR, Brooke's never broken up ANY of Stephanie's marriages. Eric left Steph before getting together with Brooke. He did leave Steph for Beth Logan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted July 26, 2009 Members Share Posted July 26, 2009 Steffy has some nerve telling Brooke to stay away from Ridge bc all that relationship does is hurt him, yet she wont end things with her and Rick even though that relationship hurts Ridge as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted July 26, 2009 Members Share Posted July 26, 2009 Jacqui Mac really fucked up her face. Girlfriend, you're not even 21 yet. You have your whole life ahead of you. You'll need your forehead in Hollywood when you're too old to play the PYT and shake the fake tits we all know you'll be forced into getting to nab other TV and movie roles. Stop using botox! And Birgit should be shot for allowing anyone to step foot out of wardrobe wearing the hideous shirt and skirt Steffy was wearing. Is this B&B, a show about affluent white people who work in Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive friendly fashion or is this The Torkildsens? That top Steffy was wearing Friday just reeks of government cheese. If you're gonna shop at Wal-Mart/Target/K-Mart at least pick out something that's not so blatantly, obviously tacky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 26, 2009 Members Share Posted July 26, 2009 Am I the only one who remembers, one of the last times Stephanie Sr. broke up Ridge and Brooke (before she arranged to have Brooke raped), she caused Ridge to have a heart attack? That caused Ronn Moss to infamously croak out...as he was collapsing..."you've broken my heart". I realize we're supposed to forget this...but why isn't Stephanie Sr. worried about seriously damaging Ridge with her shenanigans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NorrthCafe Posted July 27, 2009 Members Share Posted July 27, 2009 Stephanie has only ever loved her children when it costs her nothing to do so. She's thisclose to getting rid of Brooke (another feeble lie in her mind that she clings to no matter how many times she tells it). If Ridge is unhappy or has a heart attack, she'll deal with it THEN, maybe... it just depends. She'll sacrifice Ridge when she has to, she'll control him when it suits her. It's always about Stephanie... always. She can GO... NOW... do not pass go, do not collect $200.00. I'm at the point where missing Flannery is not worth keeping Stephanie on screen. Steph is no longer indispensible. Stephanie and her one note act can hit the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 28, 2009 Members Share Posted July 28, 2009 I guess this the wrong week, but I'm too lazy to start a new thread. I was a little surprised that she was encouraging Steffy and Thomas to block Brooke's emails. Also, while I love waxing nostalgic about Sally Spectra as much as the next guy, I don't know why she got mentioned soooooooooo much today. It is too ham handed if they're trying to tell us that "Sally approves" of this new Jackie M regime...like the spirit of Sally is back. I'm enjoying the regime...but this is not "return of Spectra". It is something different. I also find it unseemly that they keep trotting out the specter (sorry) of this woman we all loved. It was cute to think of her on an endless cruise...but I'd rather they killed her off and allowed us all to mourn her...with some flashbacks.
