B&B: April Discussion Thread

Yes, KKL and the guy who plays Thomas were good... and the show didn't do too bad of a job with the way they looked. That cave is most definitely a set, but a really good one at that... I was really impressed. Thought it was funny, though, how Thomas didn't have his shirt on while entering the cave but had it on when they went in further.

God bless Heather Tom--she's the only one who showed a genuine emotional reaction to the news. I could watch her read the phone book.

I agree that, even through all of this, you can still tell Steffy is cherising the opportunity to be alone with Bill.

Same Difference

By Naomi Rabinowitz • Posted: Apr 25, 2011

There's an old belief that people often hate the ones who remind them the most of themselves. This can definitely be said of B&B rivals, Brooke Logan and Dr. Taylor Hayes. Though the blonde and brunette are very different, they actually have quite a bit in common. Not yet convinced? Read on!

CAREER GALS

— Taylor is a psychiatrist, but has always been very involved in the goings-on at Forrester Creations.

— Brooke was a chemist for FC, though in the past years, she's been more involved in the fashion end of the company.

THE CAROLINE CONNECTION

— In 1987, Caroline Spencer was about to marry Ridge, but suffered a panic attack at the altar and was rushed to the hospital. There, she befriended Brooke, then a chem student, who was working in the lab. Brooke used her friendship with Caroline to get close to Ridge.

— In 1990, Caroline learned that she was dying with leukemia, and Taylor was her doctor. After Caroline died, Taylor bonded with Ridge as she helped him deal with his grief.

ROMANCING RIDGE

— Taylor and Ridge have been married three times: in 1992, 1998, and they renewed their vows in 2005. They've had three children: Thomas, born in 1998, and twins Steffy and Phoebe, born in 1999 (though Phoebe died in 2008).

— Brooke and Ridge have been married five times: in 1994, 1998, 2003, 2004 and 2009. However, none of these marriages, save for the last, was legit. Their '94 and '04 unions were declared invalid because a twice presumed-dead Taylor returned; Ridge annulled the '98 marriage because Brooke didn't tell him that Taylor was pregnant with his child; meanwhile, Brooke annulled their '03 union because she thought she was pregnant with Nick's baby (who turned out to be Ridge's child). As for kids, Ridge and Brooke have one son, RJ, born in 2004.

FAVORIN' THE FORRESTERS

— Brooke has twice been wed to Ridge's father, Eric: in 1991 and 2005. They share two grown kids, Rick, born in 1990 and Bridget, born in 1992. Brooke also romanced Ridge's brother, Thorne; they wed in 2001.

— Taylor and Eric shared a flirtation in 1995 and even kissed, but Taylor ended things because she feared it would hurt Stephanie. In 2007, she and Thorne surprisingly grew close after a drunken Taylor accidentally ran down and killed Thorne's wife, Darla. Taylor and Thorne were briefly engaged, but ended things because his and Darla's daughter, Alexandria, wouldn't accept the pair.

A KNACK FOR NICK

— Brooke and Nick fell in love and wed in 2006, though they divorced the next year because she still had feelings for Ridge, and he was unfaithful with Bridget.

— Taylor and Nick bonded when he became her patient in 2007. They wed that year and were thrilled when Taylor became pregnant via in vitro fertilization. However, Bridget accidentally implanted Taylor with Brooke's egg, meaning that the child was Nick and Brooke's. Taylor gave birth to baby Jack, but was unable to bond with the little boy and gave him to Brooke; Taylor and Nick's marriage collapsed and ended in 2008.

SONNY DAYS

— Brooke was aghast when Taylor dated and then became engaged to Brooke's son, Rick, in 2008, though their relationship quickly fizzled out.

— Taylor was horrified when her son, Thomas, kissed Brooke in 2011, and has accused Brooke of "corrupting" him.

SHARE AND SHARE ALIKE— In 2002, Brooke had an affair with Bridget's then-husband, Deacon, and became pregnant with his child, Hope. Then in 2010, Brooke "accidentally" slept with Hope's boyfriend, Oliver, at a costume party when she mistook him for Ridge.

— Not only has Taylor had a relationship with Rick, but so have both of her daughters, Phoebe and Steffy! Phoebe dated him in 2007 and Steffy in 2009.

KEEP IT IN THE FAMILY— Brooke has been romantically involved with Eric, Ridge and Thorne Forrester (and kissed Thomas).

— Taylor has also been romantically involved with Eric, Ridge, Thorne and Rick Forrester in some capacity. Meanwhile, she was briefly engaged to Brooke's brother, Storm Logan in 1991, and slept with Brooke's dad, Stephen in 2006.

WHIP IT!— Brooke wed Whip in a marriage of convenience in 2002 when Whip pretended that he was the father of Brooke's baby (Deacon was really the pop).

— After a whirlwind courtship, Taylor wed Whip in 2010.

No, they broke up because Alexandra started going devil child on Taylor. And the fact any feelings she had for Thorne were guilt over killing Darla.

Unless you're talking about the first time...that was when Thorne married her sorry ass to keep Ridge from knowing the baby in her belly was his.

I didn't particularly like the way they did it but I don't think it was out of place... it was supposed to show their desperation and realization that they might have a real issue with finding water and they cherised what they had. I'm glad they did that. Now, the execution...

Thorne and Taylor postponed their wedding and Thorne went to spend time with Alexandria to help her cope with the news that Taylor killed her mother and tried to take her mother's place. In reality, taylor was already hot for Nick Marone and by the time Thorne took the 'cooling off' period, she and Nick were making moves.

THIS is the oft repeated lie that annoys me:

Just.Not.TRUE... taylor sent Eric to make sure Stephanie knew there was no hope of him every coming back to her. She told James that she was putting herself first, grabbed her nightie and decided to go show Eric how much she wanted him. She was ready to bed him when she got to his condo, let herself in using HER key, and found a drunk and passed out Stephanie in his bed. She assumed more happened than actually took place, ran out into the hall and started crying about why these things kept happening to HER. She realized that Stephanie wasn't letting go and behind Steph's back she did her damnedest to make sure Eric left Steph alone.

Taylor broke things off with Eric because of her own hurt feelings. She's been lying to Stephanie every day since the first time she kissed Eric and dragged young teen Rick into the lie.

LOL @ Dayzee not liking Pam's lemon bars. She was afraid to say no so she took it anyway but still didn't eat it. LOL. Any time a lemon bar is brought up on this show it just makes me laugh!

Dayzee & Thomas thinking of each other while far away wub.gif

Poor Brooke eating the berrys like they were something magically delicious! Omg those are clearly poisonous. I would instantly be leery over them, especially with those white chocolatemysteriouswhite spots all over them.
