Oh I agree with you. The Ford brothers can do no wrong.....it is awful though the way they are destroying the character of Brody. But why am I not surprised after what they did to Charlie and others....

What do you mean? Chuckles and Echo are tru love 4 lyfe! The hatchet job is totes ok cause we're bringin Chuckles back for an episode to show you no redemption was necessary! I'm receptive to the fans and I know you guys still love him as much as you ALWAYS did!

xoxo, Ron Carlivati

I stopped caring about Brody a long time ago, because the character was ruined for Ford and Jessica (it's been about a year and a half now), but it's just ridiculous, contrasting the treatment of this character with the shrugging off of the many ugly activities of the Fords, Cutter, Kim, Aubrey, Rex, the Todds, Clint. You can't have rapists and murderers and monsters strutting around Llanview and then try to get viewers to be horrified over Brody.

Exactly....I thought the same thing about David when they learned he was really a Buchanan. Everybody acted like he was the devil, which was really amusing considering how idiotic the show tends to write him.

Sam in particular was an afterthought to most of the family.

Sam been an afterthought to that entire family after TSJ's Todd died so you can't blame him anymore.

Just recently we saw Dani spend lots of time with Starr and even take Hope trick or treating. Starr been all about Jack. Blair lavishes all her time and attention on Jack while Sam is totally neglected. Sam is only trotted out when he's needed to prop up RH's Todd or the cute kid T&B always need hanging around them.

But Brody is an out and out lunatic who deserves nothing but scorn.

The saddest part is Marty and Brody both suffered so much trauma in their lives and had a real history of mental instability RC could draw upon to make their breakdowns heartwrenchingly good. Instead, he writes both of them as crazed LOONS.

You're right, but the lack of interaction between TSJ and Sam makes the golden memories of him hollow. It's just bad writing.

Say what now? LOL

With October being National Bullying Prevention Month, we decided to put together a live stream town hall involving the online community and many of the organizations who deal with this every day, making a difference and bringing hope to many -- The Trevor Project, Kind Campaign, Do Something, GLSEN, Love is Louder, Stop Bullying and MTV's A Thin Line -- as well as other well known faces including Brittany Snow, Jai Rodriguez, Michael Ziegfeld, Perez Hilton, Disney Channel's Adam Irigoyen, One Life to Live's Freddie Smith. More importantly, we were also fortunate enough to bring together two parents of bullycide victims who have become advocates for the movement -- Wendy Walsh and Timothy Rodemeyer, whose son Jamey committed suicide in early September.

Which is offensive.

can someone inform Bree that Bobby is not her uncle? Thanks

I guess they have her say that because he's a very close friend of her mother's and yet he's not her father, but every time she says that I think of the worst connotations.

Oh I definetly understand it from her PoV but its just one other way to ingratiate him into this family and I wish he'd go away

It's stupid and pointless and heavy-handed - I don't even think fans of this couple would need to hear that.

The problem with Sam talking about Victor is that for months the show wrote Victor as not being all that close to his kids (aside from Danielle I guess) and Sam in particular was an afterthought to most of the family. Then, at the end, they suddenly had this big family love between Victor and everyone again.

You hit the nail on the head. I see people jumping on Dragonflies, but truth be told she's basically right.

I don't doubt Sam loved "Frodd", but we've never seen on screen.
