I don't agree. Brooke is old school trash. There's no disputing that. However, Katie pushed Brill together, and even though they should have tried to help her rather than lust after one another, you cannot help who you fall for. This is what the whole thing is about. If Brooke was expected to fight her feelings and put her sister first, shouldn't Katie be asked the same?

Katie is now telling Brooke what Brooke told Katie a while back - "Ridge (Bill) and I are going to be together". The situations are almost identical only Katie and dirty Ridge look worse, IMHO!

Although it's meant to create conflict, if Eric gave Wyatt the jewels and his blessing, isn't his opinion the only one that matters as Stephanie's widow (and probably purchaser of a lot of that jewelry)? Normally a show's patriarch would set the tone and all family members would respect that, but Eric Milquetoast doesn't warrant this type of respect. Plus, it's funny that Aly and Pam are attacking Wyatt, when they should really be venting their anger/protests to Eric since HE made the decision to open up Stephanie's jewels. While this is a bit annoying, I do like how B&B has crafted a nice storyline arc out of something like the dead matriarch's jewel and tied it to so many characters.

Can you imagine TK reading his script 2 months after joining to see Ridge is in love with Katie ALREADY? That had to be a "WTF" moment because it must be pretty eye rolling getting used to the pace of these characters. BB goes against everything soap couples should be.

As for Wyatt, I am all for any character that opposes him. He has me wanting Liam on my screen. PUKE!

I have to say Bell's plan is working bc I just watched Mondays show and was thinking "Go Brooke!". I want her to rain her wrath on Ridge and Katie and Im totally rooting for her to make their lives miserable. They live a happy life over her dead body!

Dang it at least took Brooke and Bill 5-6 months till they tried to move on together. It took Katie what all of 2 months to steal her sister's fiancee. Im sick of hearing her go on about how she tried hard to "fight" her feelings

I totally disagree. You certainly can help who you fall for. It's very easy to stay away from someone, instead of choosing to let feelings develop. These people aren't teenagers. Then, as an adult with a brain, you can choose not to act on feelings that are clearly destructive.

Katie was sick. Bill and Katie knew that, so the excuse that she pushed them together doesn't fly. Then, instead of just telling her how they felt, they decided to screw behind her back. At least Katie and Ridge had the decency to come clean instead of carrying on behind Brooke's back.

I admit, it's working on me too. For once, Brooke is getting a small taste of her own medicine and I have to admit I feel sorry for her. I thought I was done for good when she had the temerity to slap Katie after Brill, but KKL has that certain something and I have a feeling she'll win me back. As long as it takes a good long time, I'll probably be rooting for her by the time she gets Ridge back.

I've been watching a little of Aly on Youtube, and sometimes I forget she's Thorne's and Darla's daughter, because she reminds me a great deal of early Bobbie Eakes Macy.

I wish Darlene Conley were still alive, as I think Sally would have been great with Aly.

Wyatt is so unwatchable and this cockeyed dirty bastard has me longing for Liam!

Katie is ridiculous, and I can't wait for Ridge to stomp all over that defective heart of hers on his way back to Brooke! According to my calculations, that should be in about 6 weeks!

    • 1976 Pt 12 Final part Laurie agrees with Stuart that Peggy is rushing into marriage to prove that the rape didn’t ruin her life.  She points out that the only way Peg can be sure is to make love with Jack before the wedding. Stuart admits she’s right but points out that he can’t suggest that to Peggy. As the wedding approaches, Peg seems happy that Jack’s become close to the family. However, her happiness is shattered by a nightmare in which her loving bridegroom turns into a leering Ron Becker, forcing her to cancel the wedding. Jack reassures her he’ll wait as long as it takes, and Chris confides that she and Snapper didn’t consummate their marriage on their wedding night because of her own rape experience, but Peggy tells Chris she might never be ready.  Despite her desire to keep Karen as her own daughter, Chris helps a police artist create a sketch of Nancy so it can be printed in the newspaper as part of a search for her. When the attempt proves fruitless, however, Chris asks Greg to file application for permanent custody of the child. Greg points out that adoption is the only way to prevent Ron from returning and claiming the child, and that it will take quite a while. Meanwhile, a nurse in the psychiatric ward sees a resemblance  between the newspaper drawing and her autistic patient, Mrs. Jackson, but since “Fran” doesn’t respond to the name Nancy and no one else sees the similarity, she fears she’s mistaken. Jill is horrified to overhear Kay, when brihging baby Phillip a Christmas gift, telling the child she remembers the night he was conceived. Kay has to then admit to Jill she saw her with Phillip in the bunkhouse that night. Jill is aghast to realize that Kay new the truth all along and put her through such agony in spite of it, denying her baby his father’s name. Lance tells Laurie they’ll marry on Valentine’s Day. He laughs that it’s corny but agrees, secretly wishing it were sooner, as Vanessa has vowed to prevent it. Indeed, Vanessa makes an unprecedented venture out of the house to visit Brad, telling him to rebuff any advance Leslie might make to him, as she’s reaching out to him only from a sense of duty. But Laurie then makes a concerted effort to reach Vanessa. Without being sure why she’s trying so hard, she tries to assure the woman she’s not losing Lance and she, Laurie, will help her find a plastic surgeon somewhere who can help her. Grudgingly, Vanessa seems to be reconsidering her view of Laurie, and Laurie is delighted when Lance offers her a choice between two diamond necklaces, explaining that her preference will be Vanessa’s Christmas gift. Learning from Les about Brad’s blindness, Stuart tells Brad he could have turned Leslie away only out of great love. Knowing that Les is going to see Brad again, Laurie warns him not to bring the baby into their discussion, as Leslie will come back only she’s convinced he loves her, not for the babies sake. Leslie finds Brad disheveled and sloppy, and proceeds to straighten the apartment, stating that she can't respect him if he lets himself go. Realizing that neither Brad nor Les will make the first move, Laurie hurries things along by refusing to help Brad with his grooming, saying he should ask his wife. Then, having learned  that Brad offered Les the use of their piano, Laurie untunes the Brooks' piano forcing Leslie to accept his offer. By refusing to cater to his  blindness, Les manages to get Brad to stop wallowing in pity, and by the time Leslie’s Christmas braille message of her love and her need for him arrives, they are husband and wife again Lance takes Laurie on a business trip on New Year's Eve, and tells her, on board his plane, she won't be  won't be able to call him “Mr. All Talk and No action” after tonight. When Laurie protests that waited this long and will continue to wait until married, Lance delights her by instructing his pilot to land in Las Vegas, where they are married immediately.
    • Yeah, not sure why Jack and Jen didn’t rush to Marlena - or even Carrie - to offer their condolences. A few flashbacks would've been a nice touch too. Instead, we got a whole episode of them talking about Chad and Abby? Come on. On the bright side, I loved Anna’s scenes with Marlena and Carrie - sweet and heartfelt, felt like a real 80s throwback.
    • Martin and Smitty were designed to avoid the stereotype of gay men sleeping around (which to an extent is true). If you recall Martin had a line about them not being open when Chelsea came to talk to him. The producers are walking a very fine line right now and it might not be popular to say but I can understand it. Establishing enough footing to ward off complaints will let them showcase gay characters more openly later.
    • The week was decent. They have started to rotate their stories and finally got a rhythm going. I disagree about them allowing every character to have a moment to shine though. Nicole really hasn't been given anything to do. I completely agree with all this. I adore Doug and hope he makes it through.

    • There was the one appearance in '96, but otherwise, that's correct as far as I know.
    •   It's working fine now.

        Question for the B&B group: I see @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded multiple seasons from Videoland  (in the folders that are to be put away). They are huge folders and difficult to download so I started breaking them down into months but I realized they are by season so for example, Season 4 spans from March 1990 to March 1991. Now I'm wondering where to actually place them, since we have the Full Episodes section divided by year, not seasons. And most of these seasons we already have in full, so these are duplicates. Not sure if it's necessary to keep the older versions. I could just make another new section for Seasons, so the main folders would be "Behind the Scenes and Interviews," "Clips," "Full Episodes," "Full Seasons," "Music CDs," and "photo archive Marquise" but I'm not sure that really makes sense. Also wondering since we have almost every full episode now if "Clips" can be deleted in its entirety, as it's nearly 300GB.
    • CBS moving Murder, She Wrote from Sunday to Thursday was straight up sabotage. Les Moonves knew exactly what he was doing.
