Edit, nvmind I found it

more from TK too

How's it going so far? Ever the realist, Kaye says "It's been terrific getting back to work but we're definitely experiencing some growing pains. This is a huge undertaking. ABC did it for 40 years. For a company that's new to soaps like Prospect Park, it's a whole other ball game. We ask the fans to bear with us. It will take a bit of time to get it right but I do believe we can!"

He's been very positive about PP overall - gushing in some of the other press, which is unusual for Kaye. I didn't see any condemnation.

I wonder what house they're in? I really hate that Cortlandt Manor burned down.

Maybe it was rebuilt in the last five years?

How long will the episodes be available for Hulu Basic? Is it forever or will it just be a week?

And let's hope his acting is better than his modeling on TPIR.

I forgot how awful that Colby was. Damn they never really got it right when it came to casting that role, even the last one was pretty cringe worthy.

LMAO! My mind instantly started visualizing all of the sets they could put there as well.

ARTICLE: ‘The Bold And The Beautiful’ Top Soap Among Women 18-49 & Women 25-54, Sets New Season Highs – RATINGS

I've talked about this before. I feel like the official channels have active social media but the people working it don't know what to post to actually build engagement. The cast does a better job of posting things that go viral than the official channels. Even when it comes to clips from the show, they rarely post the proper highlight clips.
I'm curious what the show has planned for season two. I do think they had a successful first season but the show still has room to improve and grow. I do find it troubling they kept their entire cast and didn't make any changes (Ashley, Tomas, Derek). If it wants to compete with the big leagues, it can't be running a charity and keeping actors and characters who don't work just because they like them as people.
I also think season two needs to invest in some big name casting which is the only way they will get promo going forward. They good a big initial push but we all knew that after that the promo budget would be gone, as it is for the other soaps. The only other way a soap can get a big buzz is through casting. Greg Vaughn was a smart casting choice but I do think it's disappointing he was ultimately only recurring and will likely be a slow build considering his screentime thus far. That is not good to maintain the viewers he may bring in.
Additionally, with it being a Black soap, they need to lean into that and cast a well-known Black actor. I will say it until it's done but the person they bring needs to be Victoria Rowell. Y&R is their #1 soap and she is a huge star people have been begging to return. Rowell, on contract, could be what causes Y&R viewers to truly sample the show which could seriously build their audience similar to Sheila crossing over to B&B.
They could bring her in as a new character (Hawthorne wife? Dante Green's new wife? Doug's mom?) or if they really wanna push the Y&R crossover element, they could make her Dru and ultimately move Devon and/or Abby to the show which would create a legitimate stream to do regular crossovers between the two shows. Y&R is no longer using Devon or Abby so it wouldn't be a loss to them and would be a huge gain to BTG.

That's because it was supposed to be one time only appearance.
The actress did the bit part as a favor to David Jacobs since she happened to be in LA during pilot season and he called her and offered her the one episode bit part.

Thanks for the warning.
For the record, here's where we stand with the current two big secrets as 1986 begins.
GARY IS THE FATHER OF BOBBY AND BETSY:
Explicitly know: Val, Ben, Mack, Karen, Abby, Greg, Gary (Even if Val won't 100% say so for another two years), J.R. (Just kidding! But, c'mon, like he wouldn't know?)
Could easily put two and two together: Lilimae, Cathy, Laura, Peter (he might have found it out while snooping through Greg's stuff), Olivia, Eric and Michael
JOSHUA DIED BY ACCIDENT WHEN HE FAILED TO COMMIT A MURDER-SUICIDE WITH CATHY:
Explicitly know: Cathy, Lilimae
Could easily put two and together: Every damn person on the face of the earth. I want this storyline to end already, and for someone to read that miserable old crone for filth.

I agree that the promotions for BTG seem to have decreased, and I think those weeks of repeats messed with momentum for the show. That being said, I've gone from being a daily viewer the first six months or so to maybe once or twice a week now. And, when I do tune it, it feels like absolutely nothing has happened since the last time I watched which isn't good. There was all that build up to Winter Fest, and then nothing happened there. It feels like everything has been in a holding pattern forever. I want this show to succeed so badly, but it has to pick up the pace and have more exciting beats within each storyline and some twisty cliffhangers.

I wouldn't mind seeing Britt's reaction to finding out about Spencer's death either. I certainly think they were friendly/close enough to warrant a mention. I also don't think the show is necessarily ignoring their previous connection or it's some sort of glaring omission.
Britt hasn't asked about Spencer nor has she shared scenes with people that were close with Spencer. Idk, Spencer and NAC have been gone for a while now. It's not like Spencer's death is the main topic of conversation amongst the town.
As far as Spencer/Hayden, I legitimately don't remember a single thing about their interactions, so I hold Britt/Spencer in a higher regard than them lol. I tend to agree with @Vee though. Most of the Spencer/Britt bonding took place with Betchel's obnoxious kid Spencer.
If we are discussing Britt's flop of a return, the lack of talk about Spencer is very low on my list of mistakes the show has made here.

This isn't news. It's a shítty clickbait site making a suggestion for a tribute episode and then framing the headline as 'ABC announcing an airdate' for an imaginary tribute episode that doesn't exist. ABC has announced no such thing, they're literally just making stuff up for hits.
