B&B: Exclusive look at new opening credits

[SFK]

Oh, so that's what bellcurve writing Jamal in itty bitty print was all about. That's hilarious.

How superficial of me, but thanks to this opening, I've been inspired to give B&B a try. We'll see how it goes as I simply cannot stand Amber.

[Sylph]

Don't. Now is not the time. You'll regret it, I'm afraid.

[FrenchFan]

Is the opening already airing?

[Sylph]

Not yet. February 21 is the date when it debuts officially.

[bellcurve]

When they say the opening will evolve, I wonder if, on occasion, that blue silhouette or the collection will change to themes and colors to reflect the days' mood or a holiday or something. E.G. A christmas collection of dresses with a red/green logo, or a fall collection with a different color as the logo, etc.

Actually that looks great! Is B&B in HD these days I really haven't been watching the show too much. Last time I watched regularly oh god, was it Katie and Nick on the island after Storm's death? Rick the saboteur? Betty White dying on the beach? Actually I think the last time I watched for more than five mins and liked what I saw was Brooke and Oliver at the party.

Don't get me wrong because I considered myself a huge B&B fan up until 2007 or so since then I've been pretty take it or leave it about it. But absolutely love the grandness of the opening after years of having cheapskate opening sequences (hello GL! hello to Y&R for never updating!)

[bellcurve]

No.

[MontyB]

Wow! That new opening is great. 10's across the board.

[Sylph]

I wouldn't know. I kind of like that faint blue veil or a 'curtain' that ends the opening. I think it matches nicely with the rest. Perhaps they should just stick to this one colour scheme.

Personally I dont see why they even had the last names in the opening. That seems like such a bad idea for any soap especially with people changing their last names all the time. Liam's was Cooper a few months ago and I didnt even realize its now Spencer till this opening. I dont know what Marcus' was when he came to town, but he's since changed it to Forrester and just a few weeks ago, Justin asked him to change it to Barber. And lets not get started on the women who change it everytime they marry and divorce. No character should have been given their last name

I like how it essentially has the glamour shots of the GH and OLTL openings but gets away with using them in a way that MAKES SENSE, making it far less cheesy. Definitely a sly move.

As for the last names, I think it's dumb too, but it seems they'll be updating it frequently with the CGI components, so I'm sure the names will be very easily edited, too.

[Eric83]

Agreed.

[AlexElizabeth]

Whoa, I don't even watch B&B, but that opening looks fantastic.

[FrenchFan]

The more I watch it, the more I love it. Great move B&B.

[Cheap21]

So Y&R, when are you gonna update your opening?
