B&B: October Thread

[NorrthCafe]

Clearly, it's ON on the BnB... Katie and Bill vs. Brooke and Ridge/Donna and Eric?

Is this the month we'll get to see more of AJ's Bridget?

[JackPeyton]

Katie and Bill? please explain...

[NorrthCafe]

I don't think this is a spoiler for anyone, anymore, but just in case (highlight to read): Katie is taking Bill's side in his attempt to takeover FC. Katie is again a tool... turning on her family for the sake of some man's love. They fight for her, she turns on them. She's 2 for 2 right now.

My HOPE is that she's playing Bill and is only making him think she's on his side. So far, she's selling it to her sisters. She's arguing that Bill can save FC. Now? Brooke and Ridge are fighting to save FC with Katie and Bill on the other side.

Bill wants to take over Forrestor, and Katie supports him. Forrester is going through financial trouble and Katie presented Ridge and Brooke with the idea of Bill buying them out and saving the company. They then pretty much laughed in her face at the thought of Katie running the company with him. That upset Katie and its looking like the couples are going to go head to head

[NorrthCafe]

Wouldn't it be perfect for Bridget to help her mother put the smackdown on Katie?

[Cat]

That is a BEAUTIFUL picture of Ashley Jones.

And in answer to your question, Norrth, I would love to see more of Bridget interacting with Brooke and her family -- and getting back at Katie. I hate that Budge is islanded with Peepaw McSquirrel drooling on her like she's an ice-cream cone.

BTW, still love Bill & Katie. can't help it.

I know this have nothing to do with it. But to have Justin help Bill especially after Marcus went with Eric adopting him. Was it yesterday eppy that it seems like Justin hope Marcus wouldn't go with Eric adopting him.

[NorrthCafe]

Since Katie seems to be content turning on her family every time a man smiles at her, I think it would be a great twist to have Justin turn on Bill and save Forrester as part of his son's legacy! Great idea, MO.

The ratings for the BnB keep going up. I think the writers are hitting their stride (which means they could easily screw it up again just as quickly - is their tradition.). By the time you-know-who joins, this show should be on FIRE!

[MarkH]

Yup. Truer words have never been typed

[NorrthCafe]

It would be nice if:

Katie had SOME dignity. I guess working part time as a PR specialist makes her qualified to run FC. IDJIT!

Steffy wasn't such an idiot (really Steffy? You think your month long friendship with Owen makes you better qualified to talk about what he needs than his wife?) Ok, I'll admit it... I like seeing her play an obnoxious bad girl. She's definitely her mother's daughter, just not as boring.

Would be nice for Bill to be less of a sleaze!

Would be nice for Eric to be less of a wreck as the company's chief officer. The only long term success the company has ever had is under Brooke. Eric keeps putting FC in the red. What was the point of the Forresters making a big fuss over Eric taking back control of FC? He's only made FC the new Spectra.

Gotta' say, I think there's a lot more movement in this show and it's FAR more interesting than when the writers are holding this show hostage trying to force taylor into a storyline that takes the show backwards!

[BadZoe]

Everyday someone on B&B should pull out a map and say, "Where's Taylor?" That would be sooooo Campy!!

I've been a B&B fan for years, but not this year. Actually it's my mom that caused me to tune in. I'd prefer to watch the fourth hour of Today with Hoda and Kathie Lee, but she'd prefer B&B and wins. I'm not too upset because the show is actually watchable again. I think they're doing a good job of building and showcasing new characters and a larger variety. The problem is that they don't know how to integrate the vets into these stories nor do they have anything interesting for the vets to do. Brooke, Ridge, Stephanie and Eric don't need to always be the center of a story, but I do feel they should be given a more interesting supporting role at times. Especially Brooke, she shines most as the Matriarch of the Logan family. I also wish they'd at least attempt something for Thorne and Flea, the two forgotten Forrester children. I'm glad the Logan's were revamped, but did it have to be at the expense of the Forresters? Do they always have to be in the most favorable situations? Can't they revamp Thorne, Felicia and Kristen similarly? And since we know there is limited room for black people--if you wanted diveristy what about Zende? He's Eric and Stephanie's grandson!

[Juliajms]

I hope Steffy turns into a complete Vixen.

[BadZoe]

haven't watched in weeks but every time I tune in JMW looks different.

Which market are you in where B&B airs opposite the To-DIE show? If you don't want to say in the actual thread, you can PM me. I'm really curious about that.

BTW, can we get rid of the picture of the cheap Emily Rossum clone?! I'm sure she's a nice girl IRL, but Ashley Jones is SO damn overexposed on B&B and with the fans.
