B&B: December 2013 Discussion Thread

I HAAAAAAAAAAAAATE the new characters. They make me cringe. Quiin - yuck, that hairstyle is DISGUSTING, it makes my eyes hurt. But she can work if they make her Sheila 2. Wyatt - very strange and neurotic face moves, horrible hair, looks like Chucky the killer doll. And don't even start about Aly cat - this girl can't ACT even if her life depended on it. She makes Jennifer Garies look like Meryl freaking Streep. Annoying face and body. Please soap god, I want Brooke to sleep with Liam and have my 2 months of cheap and recycled campy drama.

so it's just another case of Bell's schizo writing?? Wow. I was wondering why Maya was helping Caroline with her dress and they didn't play it off awkward or odd. It was like they were girlfriends and made no sense to me but then again I'm not a regular viewer so I assumed something changed to have them be so friendly and Maya a Rick/Caroline supporter

They are setting it up so that it will be discovered that Caroline lied about having sex with Rick the night he broke up with Maya. Just wait til KM gets ahold of the material. Maya will be raging mad, smiling the whole goddamn time! Ugh!

I think they are moving away from the Carter/Maya/Rick/Carolin quad because no one really cares. The only interesting part of it is Rick and Caroline anyways. It makes sense they would just put them together and focus on a new storyline since they already have plenty of other more popular triangle amd quads happening.

I hate Quinn and her creepy son as well. At least Quinn could get mildly interesting as the resident crazy -- Wyatt is still boring and sinister in equal measure. Not that Hope is that much better off with Liam but at least they have some chemistry and he's not constantly discussing with his mother how he is gonna do what it takes to get her in his arms.

Honestly, is it too late for Hunter Tylo and Jacquie Mac to return?! Is JMW little party show really so much better than B&B? C'mon now.

I do like the actress who plays Ally, however. She is gawky and awkward and has a touch of Jennifer Finnigan about her, and if Brad Bell is serious about making her the Traci Abbott of B&B, I am ok with that. B&B can get a bit much with its parade of perfect Barbies.

At the risk of angering the anti-Honey Bear brigade, I thought if was nice to see JG last week and her Boop Boop Dee Doop curves. It's been so long since the Forresters had anything substantial happen to them that I thought it was sweet that Donna was all "Nobody has loved me like you" to Peepaw Eric. OK, I could have done without the honey licking, and it's not like Eric to turn down a free offer of rumpy pumpy, so I can only assume that this month's Viagra delivery hasn't arrived yet? In any case, I will be rooting for Donna against this crazy GH transplant. As long as I don't have to watch her much after that -- JG is hardly KKL in her ability to drive story. I would have loved a story where Donna, married to Eric, fell for Justin Barber all over again and had a naughty affair. But since Aaron D Spears is working on other projects, I doubt we'll get Justin back except for a few random appearances.

The whole Carter/Maya/Rick/Caroline quadrangle was so awful, I thought, and even with Caroline's brand new personality, I just was not invested in it at all. Now that they seem to have put an end to that, I doubt Rick and Caroline all on their own will generate much story.

I like seeing Donna, just not with Grampa Eric. I'd rather see her with Thorne.

You're mean. sad.pnglaugh.png

I thought I was doing people a favor :lol:

I think they are moving away from the Carter/Maya/Rick/Carolin quad because no one really cares.

If that was the case, Liam & Hope would have been dropped decades ago.

I like seeing Donna, just not with Grampa Eric. I'd rather see her with Thorne.

I think that could work. Then again, Katie's around and I'm still pissed about how quickly he just dropped Thorne and her for no reason. But he's never giving Thorne fulltime story anyways, so any pairing would be doomed and off screen.

Thursday:

A whole episode just about Liam/Hope/Wyatt. Geeze. How many times can Hope/Katie have the same conversation? How many flashbacks can they show?

I enjoyed Wyatt & Quinn's conversation. They may not be great but they are written with direction and specificity. Which all could change within two episodes.

Aly... that little scheming ho. I like her. A bit. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

It's sad when Quinn, a newbie, is the most interesting thing on this show. I'm excited to see her come unraveled and I'm praying this is long term and built slowly a la Sheila or what little of what I've seen of YR Vanessa Prentiss.

Sucks to hear that Dayzee being written off. She could've at least gotten a proper send-off. Still wish she would've ended with Thomas rather than Chicken George. -_-

Hope/Wyatt/Liam/Ali. Over it and called it day one. She'll shadow Hope then flip on her & want one of her men. Why couldn't Ali be paired with a wasted Oliver? Why does everything have to be quads & triangles on this show? Ugh.

Caroline/Rick. A bore. Where is Amber? Kimberly? Caitlin? Some heifer from Rick's past that I enjoyed to come back and shake this pairing up.

Brooke and her many conquests are bore now too. I'd get more joy from a story involving Brooke working on Brooke's Bedroom than getting piledrived by Bill or Ridge when he returns.

B&B could be so good a la 93-05 when the show was actually trying and SO good.

OMG - Clarence really hit it with Quinn/Eric/Donna - my favorite lines:

Donna to Quinn: "My SLUTUITION is screaming that there is something is off about you!"

******

Donna to Eric: "You need to watch Wyatt's mom, she called me a SLUT."

Eric: "She did?"

Donna: "We both know I AM, but that's beside the point!"

Oh, Clarence, thank you for making me howl at the end of every week. I am starting to get interested in this Quinn/Donna thing. I just hate that it's centered around Eric. Couldn't they please find a man 20 years younger? Please, please, please. It would be so much more believable!

I'm looking on twitter to see what Kristolyn posted on her being out of the show. Can't find it.

  • Member

I read something that Kristolyn got a real legit theater gig. I'm thrilled for her as B&B was wasting her.

LMAO at Hope having flashbacks of things that occurred while she was unconscious!

The exterior scenes looked amazing. BB integrates their exteriors with the interior sets perfectly (and is the best lit show in daytime, so that helps). But I had to laugh as it being sunset when Aly and Liam were outside and then bright day when Liam and Hope were talking.

Thorne and Aly are adorable. I'm glad her arrival has brought him out of the cobwebbed basement. I'm digging Aly and enjoying Quinn & Wyatt's craziness.

LMAO at Liam channeling Bill.

I'm happy Kristolyn Llyod is finding other work. She's completely wasted on B&B. It's a shame we've probably seen the last of her. I thought her character had potential. Not to mention KL is a talented actress, more so than some of the show's leading heroines. I think Maya's days are numbered if this AA female generates more heat with LSV's Carter. I'm surprised and disappointed that Bell didn't have Dayzee/Carter hook-up since Marcus is more than likely gone.

I'm looking forward to Ridge's return. Brooke/Bill/Katie/Ridge is a potential goldmine.

I watched a marathon of episodes on TVGN yesterday and a couple of things struck me:

1. Quinn/Donna - love the chemistry between these two women.

2. Quinn/Wyatt & Ally/Thorne - I like that these "kids" are able to have intelligent, adult conversations with their parents.

3. Ally - I know people are divided about her, BUT 1) she's new and 2) the character is SUPPOSED to be awkward (painfully so) and I think the comes across well. Everyone is usually so polished on B&B, it's quite refreshing to have someone with a different appearance and view on the world.

Here you go: http://instagram.com/p/hbngq7QNLV/

It's a screencap of her Tweet and includes the tag #GoodbyesSuck and she said it's her last episode of B&B for now. That sounds like she's been dropped to recurring, which on B&B means you're done typically. Look how long it took Oliver to resurface or Amber, who is also recurring.
