B&B: November Discussion Thread

Featured Replies

JY needs to go to primetime. I would hope BB would sign him to a long term contract. B&B numbers have gone up ever since AMC was cancelled and JY joined the show again.

The show needs to finally do something bold and put these two on the backburner and let others shine

Ridge+et+Brooke+(2).jpg

Even when they have no story, they are on all the time monopolizing the show

Hope and Thomas kissing is just all kinds of wrong.

It really doesn't bother me in the least. I've probably given this more thought than B&B writers has who pairs people by default but considering how all the "kids'" parents has messed around and done the family tango it's really not that strange that the their children would do the same.

B&B does go overboard with it but at the same time I also feel that the other soaps could benefit from a little "incest" & pushing the envelope.

Other soaps has no problem pairing up a rapist with his victim but God forbid if two step siblings who has probably had 5 different stepmothers and fathers while growing up, would be romantically paired.rolleyes.gif

I'm fully aware that I'm probably in the minority with this opinion.tongue.png

Ron Moss is such a crappy dramatic actor but he excels in scenes like the ones today when Thomas told Ridge about Hope. I was laughing so hard at Ridge's WTF faces.laugh.png

Steffy and Thomas were so funny as well.

Liam and Hope...zzzzzzzzzz.

Liam continues to be biggest idiot in all of daytime.

There are more "levels of wrongness" about Hope and Thomas than the tenuous step-relationship (which blows with the wind anyway, one minute Brooke was a loving stepmother to Thom and his sisters for years, the next, Brookie did nothing but break up their family and cause them all kinds of heartbreak, as if Taylor was never declared dead twice.)

Hope was the only one who believed Thomas was lying when he said he'd slept with Brooke. Hope thought he was scum for using Brooke for his own gain and breaking up her family. That's what I object to. Hope wasn't buying any of his excuses then, and he's offered NOTHING to redeem himself for that debacle.

There's also the ICKY implication of Thomas' obsession with Brooke (back when they were working together and he was "confused" about his feelings for his father's wife) now carrying forward a generation to Brooke's daughter.

Those are a lot more troubling than their on-again-off-again status as step-siblings. It's not like they're Jammy and shared a Grandma.

I just realized that not only was Jammy cousins (or half cousins...or whatever, they still shared blood) but Tammy was also adopted by Richard, Jonathan's father.laugh.png

I couldnt beleive that Brooke and Hope so no problems with Thomas being interested in her bc they grew up as step siblings. Instead the focus was more on the fact that Hope is still in love with Liam and Thomas should know not to pursue her

I found both his & Brooke's reaction hilarious. LOL @ Brooke "*quick facepalm* Oh my gosh honey, how did this happen?!" laugh.png

Liam and Hope are boring. I think it's because Liam is ruined and I no longer care for him. He really is the biggest idiot of them all. Just pathetic...he really annoyed me today. Ugh!

Steffy and Thomas were funny, LOL at Steffy approving of Thomas w/Hope. If she wasn't with Liam right now I am almost positive she wouldn't feel the same way! Unfortunately, I get the sick feeling that with these two conspiring to keep Hope & Liam apart, their machinations will catch up with them and Hope & Liam will find their way back to each other in the end e8099.gif

I'm pretty sad Thomas is already over Dayzee and his previous obsession with Brooke. lol

In the Hope/Brooke scenes today, they almost seemed to tip toe away from the step-sibs factor. I to was surprised they were more concerned that Hope is still in love w/Liam. And with Ridge, I didn't really understand what his problem with it was at all. I hope he expresses that more tomorrow or something.

Already over Dayzee? It has been what like 4-5 months now. I wouldnt expect him to still be lamenting over her now

I am disappointed that B&B isn't using Jacob Young to the best of his abilities, but I don't blame him for signing with the Bells over PP. Sadly, Rick Forrester is just not the type of role that J.R. Chandler was.

I guess I thought he would still feel something for her even now and maybe want her back...the way he's treating & talking to Hope is exactly how he used to be with Dayzee. It's clear he's over Dayzee now and I really kinda hate that, considering how much he cared about her.

I am very underwhelmed by his return so far.

That's also EXACTLY how he talked about Brooke. That's what's so borderline creepy. HTG, TPTB should just do it and reveal that Thomas is really gay. It's like he's subconsciously picking women he knows he can't have anyway.

And I think Ridge's WTF faces were spot on.

Liam officially crossed over into douche territory. I used to find Hope and Liam refreshing in the "we're less screwed up than everyone else in town" kind of way...but I'm over it. He chose sex, now he can go get his brains fucked out.

Oh...but I like Steffi's hair more, even though it's the same craptastic dye-job she had when it was longer. It's a cute bob when they curl it under like that.

Something is seriously wrong when the most interesting part about Jacob Young's return to BB is Rick Forrester's bland shirts.

If this is how it's gonna be then I hope his stay is shortterm & JY gives primetime a shot.

I loved seeing Steffy in her scenes with Thomas making fun of Thomas and his crush on Hope. Even though I really like Thomas and Hope it was fun to see Steffy questioning and teasing Thomas about his out of nowhere infatuation with Hope. Liam just brings everyone down which is why I so enjoy Thomas being brought into the mix to lighten up both Steffy and Hope.

Jacqueline Mckinnes Woods is in my opinion the sexiest woman on daytime right now.....too bad it's currently wasted on Liam.

  • Member

OMG, Brooke, mind your own business! to Katie: "We have to find a way to prove that Steffy manipulated Liam inot marrying her" ugh, why is any of this her concern? Like Ridge told her the other week, let it go and move on. She's intent on making it her mission to go after Steffy and expose her. Too bad for her, Liam already knows as Steffy confessed a few days ago. And too bad she didnt get that memo bc it was none of ehr business or concern to know. She and Katie both looked incredibly silly sitting around gossipping about Steffy and how they were gonna get her and prove she lied. Howold are they? They need to grow up and find something better to do
