B&B: October 2013 Discussion Thread

[ChitHappens]

If the Spencers were going to be the 2nd lead family, Don Diamont is not the best choice as patriarch. He does not fit the role at all.

I have not watched, and just a few months ago, the show was must see and Brooke had me in stitches. But I never put BB on the DVR because they drive people away very quickly! The plus is that I don't have to waste my time on CBS.com and that green [!@#$%^&*] screen!

They ruined it. It was the perfect moment to have a classic Brooke media scandal and public humiliation. Also she should have carried the miracle "I'm nearing 60 and pregnant" baby. And Katie should have delivered that baby in Big Bear herself! Baby girl. They should have named her Destiny and called it a day But noooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Brad Bell fucked all up and made this into a boring "love story" ?!? And those two ho bags (Brill) suck each other's mouths all day and prepare to go hiking together?! WTF. Where are the meltdowns. Where are the slaps. Where is pathetic Brooke, crying for forgiveness from her left eye? Where is Liam sleeping with Brooke by accident? What happened to this show? It used to deliver the most perfect cheap dose of entertainment.

[ChitHappens]

Yep! This is how it should have happened. Unfortunately, we got "poor Brooke" instead of the town throwing stones at her. REEEEEEdiculous!

[Juliajms]

Brooke's antics are falling flat because there is no one to call her on it anymore. It used to be Stephenie and Taylor. It should be Katie now, but it isn't because they write Brooke as basically rolling her eyes and telling Katie to get over it.

[Juliajms]

Well, in all fairness there have been slaps. Brooke slapped Kaite at least once (I can't tell you how much that pissed me off).

[Maxim]

But I want to see Brooke being slapped. Multiple times. I miss seeing her like that.

[Sapounopera]

I always used to have a soft spot for B&B. It was my first soap, but nothing about this show has seemed interesting to me.

All I see are boring, predictable, uninspired triangles with people who take themselves too seriously.

Bringing two insta-sons for insta-Bill Spencer was too much for me. Carter, Maya, Marcus, Wyatt, Quinn cannot carry the show.

Everything that I liked about the Logan sisters has been ruined. Brooke's strange addiction to sleep with relatives is too much at this point and this sad version of Katie drives me away. Everyone has been written as a joke for decades and with people like Stephanie, Ridge, Taylor and Steffy gone you can see how empty this show really is.

[CBRVA83]

What do you all think of Thorsten Kaye (ex-Zach, AMC, ex-Ian, PC, and ex-Patrick, OLTL) just being cast as the nuRidge on B&B? Thoughts?

[Juliajms]

I know. I was just being a little sarcastic because I feel the show got it backwards with Katie being the one slapped. I mean, WTF was that? She really believes she has the moral high ground. She's so condescending towards Katie.

i cannot believe thomas is gone. it's unbelievable that taylor / ridge / steffy / thomas are gone. i know AG just had a baby though. are dayzee / marcus still even on the show?

[cassadine1991]

Wasn't one of those times when Katie slept with Nick while he was with Bridget?

[sheilaforever]

Texas Battle (Marcus) is in South Africa filiming a series but he has one scene up today or tomorrow... Dayzeigh is presumably still in LA - and seen as a dayplayer once a month.

[Cheap21]

Its Dayzee and she is actually in the promo for this week

[Nate4]

oh ok thank you.

[Juliajms]

I don't remember. If so, she deserved it that time. In this story, Brooke needs to keep her damn hands to herself.

I think it's a good thing Ridge is coming back to throw a monkey wrench into Brill. I don't care who's in the role. If TK sucks they can send him back to France soon enough. I'm rooting for the recast to work though.
