Members YRfan23 Posted May 22, 2014 Members Share Posted May 22, 2014 She's cute, but I'm worried she's gonna be the latest member of the Hope/Liam/Wyatt saga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dio Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 lol, no. As if B&B would give Aly any kind of storyline. This gurl will be working on the jewelry line, so obviously she's being brought in to play 4th corner in that disgusting Liam/Hope/Wyatt triangle.

Members dio Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 how so? Steffy was only with one guy (Liam?), right? I'd say Hope fits the Brooke 2.0 role a lot better, esp. now that she's dating brothers. #mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AdelaideCate007 Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 Unless she's significantly improved in the few months since she left Neighbours, she is a terrible actress and won't be able to pull off being a vixen at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 One of the problems is that Eric and Donna can't carry any type of story. If it were me, I'd bring John in, bring Maggie back (and make her a little kooky and nuts again), and start phasing out Eric, Donna Duck, et al.

Members Aback Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 I thought we were done with those awful, out-of-nowhere relatives who popped up in the 90s. I for one didn't miss them one bit. B&B has done wonders creatively in the last few months, this feels like a step back. I hope I'm proven wrong or at least Brad loses interest in her in a couple weeks LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 Why would you think that when B&B continues to do it? The entire Spencer clan is evidence of that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aback Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 One thing is to establish a new core family. Another thing is to add out-of-the-blue characters we've never heard about before to the original core family of the show, the Forresters, whom we've seen everyday for the last 27 years. IMHO.

Members Ben Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 I'll take random, retcon, relatives over trying to establish a new family that sucks the life and soul out of the show (the Marones). I've just started watching B&B again (thanks to all the positive comments in the B&B thread), so this will be odd seeing Ashleigh Brewer in B&B; I never thought I would see Kate Ramsay mixing it up with the Forresters! She's a decent actress, but her Neighbours character, Kate, was very saccharine and saintly, so I don't know what she'll be like playing a vixen - if that is what this Ivy character is going to be like. Has John Forrester ever appeared on the show? I don't think I've ever seen him, and I've been watching since the mid-90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 Maybe but they haven't limited it to just the Spencer's. Pam literally came out if nowhere as well as some sister of Stephanie's,we never saw before. I think that was more alarming than a new cousin popping up. We know Eric has a brother but we don't know much about him. I don't find it startling that he has a life that has occurred offscreen and that includes kids. It's not like this contradicts anything and it isn't evens rewrite like Bill being Sr's son and the show acting like he always existed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 No. They nearly cast him at one point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ben Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 I wonder why they've never gone there? It feels like some of the past stories could easily have fitted him, like retconning Ridge's paternity, for one. Seems kinda odd, to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 I think they were close around 1995 or 1996, probably considering some story with Stephanie. Brad Bell short attention span, as always. I wish they'd expanded this group instead of bringing back the Logans, who have by and large been a huge bust (and I generally include HT's Katie in that).

Members Gray Bunny Posted May 23, 2014 Members Share Posted May 23, 2014 The Logan sisters generally do have big busts. But I agree. Donna is just a peripheral secretary who happens to have family ties. Katie continues to exist onscreen because Heather Tom plays the role. The character itself needs to go and let us remember her as the pimply faced teen played by Nancy Sloan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
