Members sheilaforever Posted September 20, 2010 Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 http://www.tvguide.com/News/Bold-Beautiful-Shocker-1023296.aspx Even though this a slight rip-off the Felicia's cancer story, this should get good. Love that they revisit Stephanie's homeless days which is one the show's best stories and the biggest Emmy snub ever (Susan Flannery was utterly brilliant in this classic Bill Bell tale). FYI: they couldn't use the original actress for Steph's friend, RuthAnne, because actress Michelle Davison died a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRBB Posted September 20, 2010 Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 LOL True Hahahahahaha It doesn't sound like he will actually kill her off. Most probably just trying to make us think he may. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted September 20, 2010 Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 It will probably all end up being Steph's huge plan to frame Brooke for her murder or something stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted September 20, 2010 Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 I fell asleep reading the interview. But I have mentioned it so many times: Susan is on autopilot and should have left a few years ago. So if she decides to leave, fab! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted September 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 It's not HIS decision. It never was for the last decade... If she bolts, she's gonna bolt. Somehow I don't see La Flannery leave just now though. She gets rather decent material on the show and has enough time off to direct on various occasions (e.g. season 2 of VENICE). And she just got herself in such great shape, it would be a shame if she left us now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRBB Posted September 20, 2010 Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 It's totally his decision! lol It's up to Flannery to decide if she wants to go but it's up to HIM to decide if he will just write her out or have Brooke murder her and then go to jail, where she will be raped by a butch inmate. But, yes, I've had a feeling that she is going to stick around for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted September 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 Ma Lee would smack Brad with her walking stick if HE were to write out La Flannery... And he himself adores her. This would NEVER happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Llantano Incorporated Posted September 20, 2010 Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 In all honesty, I have not been so excited for a storyline on a soap in 5, maybe 10 years (other than Andrea Evans returning to OLTL). If done correctly, THIS is a classic soap story. I just put B&B back on my DVR. I have maybe watched 4 episodes of B&B in the last year and 1/2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 20, 2010 Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 I didn't know the woman who had played Ruthann had died. She was great, as was the man who played Stephanie's love interest when she was homeless. She seemed so happy to be on the show, even in a thankless role. I remember when they brought her back for Stephanie's failed wedding to Eric in 1997 (the one Sally ruined by putting a photo of afterglow Lauren and Eric in the reverend's Bible), and she talked about how beautiful the color of her bridesmaid gown was. Colleen Dion, meanwhile, was basically saying, "I wouldn't wear this in real life." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted September 20, 2010 Members Share Posted September 20, 2010 A heart attack like the one Stephanie had in 2005? Because I admit, I definitely almost had one of those kinds. Word to both statements. Brad can't rely on Susan Flannery forever, if the show has that long left anyway. A revamp is desperately needed to juice up this show. Relying on Stephanie the Bully, Brooke the whiny weeping heroine, and Jackie the desperate UK reject isn't gonna "save" this show. It's old. It's stale. It's tired. But it's the same damn thing over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
