Members Maxim Posted April 30 Members Share Posted April 30 (edited) The show would have survived of course. The fact that it survived past Susan Flannery proves it can. But I think Taylor should never have been bring back from the dead - this series of bringing her back cheapened the show and made it a mockery. She died so many times and came back... it was... laughable. Edited April 30 by Maxim 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChickenNuggetz92 Posted May 1 Members Share Posted May 1 I don't know if I'm in the minority (or if my personal nostalgia is making me biased), but I very much find myself enjoying the early 2000 B&B episodes on YouTube. From Macy losing her sobriety, with Becky's cancer, and of course the Morgan storyline I find myself entertained. I'm surprised at how critical some of the comments are from this era. Side note, the same toxic mouthbreathers have also latched onto making personal attacks to Sarah Buxton/Morgan lmao. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted May 1 Members Share Posted May 1 I think these people can't separate a character from an actor. They start bashing an amazing actor just because the character is doing bad things. Shocking how immature they are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rmodelboy Posted May 2 Members Share Posted May 2 I feel like making a list of characters who just vanish lol I'm at the beginning of 1996 The young set is in such a lull. Jessica/Sly was a terrible choice Michael/Dylan - dullsville although I remember back in the day dealing becoming a stripper or escort so im sure that's coming up. They should have kept Jasmine in the fashion fold but they have the girl working as a waitress and lusting for Sly. I don't know if in the minority or not but I wished they would have left Bridgett as Ridge's. This letter that Ridge found would have hit harder had the results stayed the same. Did they reveal who wrote the letter ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Videnbas Posted May 2 Members Share Posted May 2 Oh, I absolutely enjoy the 2000 episodes on youtube! S13 is one of my personal favorites. Even though it isn't quite as well crafted as the Bill Bell years, it is clearly one of the best Brad Bell seasons. I am looking forward to the double tearjerker of Becky's and Macy's deaths. And the Morgan storyline, and Ridge being tricked into infidelity by e-mail, is just hilarious! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted May 4 Members Share Posted May 4 B&B started tanking during the second half of 1995, thus that fall Sheila returned and Lauren crossed over. Funny thing is that 1996-1998 Sheila and Lauren were hardly in each other's orbits. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted May 4 Author Members Share Posted May 4 Oh yes. Like Y&R, B&B went through a 1996-97 downturn as well but came alive again in the fall of 1997. The Maggie/James/Sheila triangle and rivalry was at least something different, and after Sheila’s suicide attempt by jumping off a building in her wedding dress it seemed Sheila going to be put into a more a sane direction until Stephanie meddled in her affairs again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted May 4 Members Share Posted May 4 (edited) 1994 was horrible for me. It just had so many absurd things. I personally hated the princess Leila storyline. I cringed so much and it just felt like a different show. After that, the show was lost trying to find the center again. I didn't like Brooke losing her mind... The scenes where she was running mad with the dolls were absurd. 1995 to 1998 was up and down up and down. Good moments then pure trash. In 1999 Bold started to really come alive and by 2000 it was in great form. Not like the classic era, but something you can enjoy and laugh and want to watch again the next day.

Members kalbir Posted May 5 Members Share Posted May 5 1996-1998 there were five pregnancy leaves: Tracey Bregman and Hunter Tylo in Fall 1996, KKL in Spring 1997, Hunter Tylo and Kimberlin Brown in early 1998. Those impacted a good number of storylines I'd say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted May 6 Members Share Posted May 6 Thank you always for giving this info. From you I have learned so many things. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members I Am A Swede Posted May 6 Members Share Posted May 6 I wonder why they only had a temporary recast for KKL and not any of the others. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChickenNuggetz92 Posted May 7 Members Share Posted May 7 I still think Brooke is low key iconic for hand-delivering Macy divorce papers back in 2000 and was an unintentionally hilarious moment LMAO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldKara Posted May 7 Members Share Posted May 7 (edited) Taylor had a temporary recast in Sherilyn Wolter, Ronn Moss had Lane Davies.... Oops! Trying to slip them under the door! Edited May 7 by BoldKara 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted May 7 Members Share Posted May 7 You're welcome. That was 1990 I believe. What @I Am A Swede is referring to are when actresses were on pregnancy leave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldKara Posted May 7 Members Share Posted May 7 Sorry. I suspect they had too much story for Brooke to just write her out? Only a guess as to why. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
