B&B is getting exciting again! Love it!

Thomas only has 5%. He only gets 30% when Stephanie dies. Until then, those 25% are under Taylor's control. Its kinda dumb bc I didnt think she had that much power but they seem to be making it up as they go along

I don't understand why Stephanie can't just remove Taylor as trustee. "Irrevocable" or not, would be clauses in case of unfitness or death of the named trustee.

Agreed, that's exactly how it seems. That 55% shares Taylor apparently has now came out of nowhere. I love how Taylor never added up the shares before....LOL.

Also i'm more and more intrigued by Thorne, is he really interested in Taylor or is he just trying to get revenge on Ridge? Just thought about this: If he's trying to get revenge, did he have something to do with Anthony giving Taylor that psychic prediction last week? Hmmm. Who knows.

Seeing Winsor Harmon again this week prompted me to go to YouTube and check out classic clips of when Thorne and Brooke first fell in love. I really liked them together. I liked how Thorne was a counterpoint to Ridge. WH may not be the world's greatest actor and he has that Louisiana accent that doesn't ring true for somebody born and raised in Bel Air, but he is still my favourite incarnation of the character. Yes, even more than Jeff Trachta, Grease fans. Because he seem(ed) to have some fire and swagger about him. I loved when he courted Taylor after she came back from Morocco back in the day. He has chemistry with a lot of the women on the show.

To this day, I will never understand why Bradley decided to end Brooke & Thorne so abruptly and cruelly and why Thorne was sidelined thereafter. I know it is too much to ask but it would be nice to have him a little more front-and-center again and I hope this shift in the SL represents that. Honestly, there is no need for Nick when Thorne is the original (and best) anti-Ridge.

And PJ, I would love it if little Allie showed up to make Taylor's life hell! And if all this turned out to be a ploy to con Taylor into changing her mind about the shares. Let's bring on Felicia, too. God knows Barbara Bloom isn't around anymore to stop the Bells from using Lesli Kay.

^^^This show could use Lesli Kay vamping it up as Felicia. And Allie got a shout out today!

This "me and my chilluns been push'd aside" crap would be a lot more convincing if they didn't OWN 30% of the company outright. Brooke and her children stand to get bupkis.

And notice how the entire issue of Taylor favoring Steffi over Thomas has been convienently forgotten now that Taylor's got the means to screw over Ridge. Now it's all about "Daddy's abandoned us". *eyeroll*

I've been watching the last few days, and enjoying the hell out of it. I just hate Ridge and his pompous attitude, and would love to see him and his skank wife relegated to the basement. And YES... I think Brooke is a skank, always have.

I hate when Ridge has to choose between his kids & Brooke/Hope, for once I wish they'd change things up a bit and have him choose Steffy and Thomas for once. Siding with Brooke always makes him look more and more like a jerk & a bad father, even though his intentions may be good! I feel bad for Steffy and Thomas.

Lol at Taylor when she was going on her rant about how she thinks there's a conspiracy going on with Brooke/Hope being at the top, and her kids always getting shafted. It is true but I don't think it's necessarily a conspiracy. LOL. I'm absolutely loving what Thorne has brought to the table lately, it's really interesting. Loving B&B.

I think it's possible, but I also think he really is interested in Taylor. There's more drama in it that way (Ally), also I can't see Thorne turning into a true bad guy. Getting revenge in business is one thing, but breaking Taylor's heart for revenge, I don't think so. Not after all these years.

I'll agree that WH isn't the best actor in the world, but he's every bit as good as Ronn Moss, so acting shouldn't be a stumbling block to him getting more airtime.

You and me both. I am so sick of Ridge and his whole "poor me, I'm stuck in the middle" attitude. He's in the middle because he put himself there time and again.

I'd love to see Brooke dump his ass and go work with Katie at Jackie M. Ridge can show up on Taylor's door begging her to play second string again and she can slam the door in his face. Hey, a girl can dream. Taylor and Brooke have both done time alone, but Ridge never gets to feel what it's like to be on the outside looking in.

Had to laugh at Brooke's concern that Steffy's Intimates line may be too provocative? Brooke's Bedroom anyone? LOL!

HT has a severe case of Noassatall! Just thought I'd point that out. I mean, if you're going to make "modifications" to your body, balance it out. Just saying.

talk about hypocrite! Brooke's Bedroom...heck Taboo. Its alright with her parading around taking sexy suggestive photos with Thomas, hinting at incest and scandal to sell clothings, yet that wasnt provactive?

I think it makes him look pussywhipped.

The funny part to me is that anything in "Intimates" is too provocative for the Europeans. We saw the promo, I doubt anyone in the European fashion world was clutching their pearls. Now if they wanted to tell us that certain segments of the U.S. market had an issue with it, it might be slightly more believable.

I thought it was pretty clear that Brooke was responding to Hope's assertions about what their clientele was telling her---a fact supported by Rick's text. I think it would have been more realistic to relate it to the Taboo fiasco however.

I'll be the lone voice who sympathizes with Ridge. He's trying to run a company. Steffi and Thomas (and Taylor) are the ones constantly making every utterance a test on who he loves "more". And in Thom's case, it hasn't only been between him and the Logans, it's him and Steffi too.

Well... just like I thought, Liam's blue balls are getting the best of him. I think Hope doesn't want to have sex at ALL, she's so young, I think she seems him as this boy band/chaste fantasy type of thing. Bill should have bought the boy a fleshlight. LOL

I got a question for you all. The last three days, when watching B&B, there have been TINY bits of spanish dialogue randomly appearing in the audio track of the broadcast. Just a fraction of a second each time. It doesn't seem to do it on Y&R or The Talk, or my local news...have any of you guys noticed this? I wodner if it's a problem with the Bell's tape, or CBS, or my local affiliate.
