Shooting in the middle east next month, and Bob Barker guests

Wow.

The best thing to ever happen to Don Diamont was to have Brad Carlton killed off Y&R. Being Bill Spencer on B&B has given him so many opportunities. He and KKL sure get to see the world (granted, she was going there anyhow).

Interesting.

Michael Stich and Ed Scott wil probably produce the hell out of this location shoot. Looking forward to it. As for he animal shelter stuff - ICCL.

Love the animals shelter stuff, I wish this show would quit beating to death the flop that is Brill

This show is unbelievable. How do they keep pulling this stuff off? B&B may not deliver all the time in story, but it's one of the best produced shows on tv, daytime or primetime.

Although, I haven't seen B&B in a long time (except the odd episode here and there), when these episodes show onscreen, I'm going to make a point to watch. I wonder whether there'll be any scenes in the desert? I'm sure it will be visually stunning regardless.

I always enjoy their location shoots.

I figured this was tied in somehow with KKL's horse-racing commitments. She's been doing prestigious events for years, including in the Middle East where the breed stallions (For real! I'm not making a joke about Dollar Bill here), and they have prestigious race events involving horses going across the desert.

Very exciting, jet-setty stuff. I doubt we will see the actual triathlon itself, but the international glitz of Dubai/Abu Dhabi fits in perfectly with B&B's brand. I am sure the show will do a more flattering job of showcasing Abu Dhabi than Sex & the City 2 did.

Exciting!

Well except Brooke's overplayed ass but what else is new?

Gonna make sure I catch this. So happy that BB still does location stuff even if the day to day show is nauseating.

KKL is the luckiest no talent to ever grace Daytime!

Is B&B the only show left with a budget and connections?

It just shows what a genius Brad really is - KKL's triathlon and he turns it into another location shoot. Despite occasion storyline duds, etc., the fact the B&B finds ways to incorporate outside scenes (like the terrace, parking lots, etc.), truly gives it a leg up. It's hard to believe that the other LA soaps didn't find a way to do this as well. (Oh, and the excuse that the others aren't based in LA is no excuse, considering that those back lots, locals substitute for the other locations in films, prime time, etc.) I really admire what B&B has done on the production end.

I can totally picture KKL learning that HER VACATION will turn into a location shoot. Girl gets no break at all!

I also thought immediately that B&B is probably doing a much better job than SatC with Dubai though I appreciated the critical take - it just meld with the movie/franchise at all.

DAYS used to do those "normal everyday outside scenes" too in the 90s and early 00s. Mostly Salem Place but also the lawn and street next to it.
