B&B: Week of August 31, 2009

[Toups]

I've been enjoying them too.

I agree. I don't even like Brooke/Ridge and I'm tired of the B/R/T triangle......but I loved that reunion. I can't help it but like a cheesy romantic scene. LOL

[y&r_fan]

So Ridge just goes ahead with his cheesy reunion with Brooke and borderline-pornographic make-up sex without even breaking it to Taylor? Typical.

I really wanted Tridge to be the outcome of this storyline. They had a more mature relationship and Tylo tends to elevate Moss. But Brad's apparent boner for Bridge isn't going anywhere so now I just want them to STAY together. Preferably on the backburner as the "token vets".

The imminent Whip/Steffy pairing is glaringly obvious. Frankly I would have preferred to see Steffy stay with Rick (or reunite with Marcus) and Whip hook up with Taylor. The age gap between these two is WAY too big. Plus, now there will be THREE young male actors in the contract cast (Rick, Marcus and Thomas) and no one to pair them with.

I never thought of that. I didn't see Whip/Steffy coming (I thought it would be Whip/Jackie, still). As for the boys, hook 'em up with each other. Wouldn't you love to see this cheesy, crazy show script a twisted, testosterone filled triangle? Oh my gosh, it would be on The Soup every single episode.

Whip and Stuffy, I saw no chemistry. But then I was too annoyed by this twit just being there. I'm like who the f**k is she? Girl go play in traffic. Her forced presence in this Owen/Jackie/Whip story irks me. And if RH is about to be paired with JMW then my condolences to him.

People have been hoping that for over 15 years. I doubt this time will be the definitive reunion, although I agree it should happen.

That pissed me off too. I wonder if the lack of Taylor is due to something going on backstage. She hasn't been getting as many scenes as her character needs since at least the time of Phoebe's death. It's weird. Plus, it's weird that Taylor hasn't been a credible threat to Bridge in years. I remember when she was married to Ridge and Brooke tried to break them up over and over and it never worked. This time they are making it like Taylor doesn't really rate.

I like your ideas.

And nice to hear from another Taylor fan (Juliajms sounds like another). Although I love my Taylor-Haterating friends, too! Whip and Taylor ... hmm? I'd like to see a chemistry test with those two. Of course, we would have to have a Taylor/Whip/Stuffy triangle because this is a Brad Bell show after all.

I liked Stuffy with Marcus, but I wouldn't mind if Marcus and Rick (and throw in Thomas for the heck of it) were to discover they have a little more in common other than Stuffy, you know what I'm saying? But wouldn't that be like the gay version of Jammy! Now I don't know ... that's just a bit too much. LOL! The CBS Daytime average audience would simultaneously explode! They might be able to handle kissing cousins and they might be able to handle a little boy/boy loving, but put those together ...

Poor Rick Hearst. Stuck with the anti-chemistry that is Stuffy (P.S.: love the name!). Who did she think she was, weighing in on Whip breaking up Jackie & Owen's "beautiful" relationship? She really isn't one to talk: like she gave Marcus a second thought in order to make goo-goo eyes at Rick. Also, what is her relationship with Jackie and/or Whip, exactly? Do they even know who she is? "Ridge's daughter -- you know, the one who's not dead."

Also -- Jacqueline MacInnes was such a natural beauty when she first came on the show. Now she looks heavily botoxed (and she must be, what, 22?) and badly needs to step away from the Mystic Tan.

Bridge = barf. I feel bad for the writers and actors trying to make this work as The Greatest Star-Crossed Love in the World Ever Ever EVAH. Unless this is going to end with twin coffins and misplaced letters and vials of poison in medieval Verona, they need to calm down with that ish.

OMG - best post ever.

[Cat]

LOL. I am holding out hope for Brooke & Whip. Like you are, if your banner is anything to go by.

So glad not to see another Wedding good show Patrick M!!
