ITA - but I also think they have the foundation set with: Katie/Ridge/Caroline/Rick/Myrna as a story to could fill those months. Give us some Justin/Donna love = JG proved she was still a smoking hot woman with her little visit to Y&R. Why aren't they taking advantage of her abilities on B&B? I don't get it. I'm sure we'll also get Deacon/Quinn stuff, but Deacon has kind of been stymied without Brooke on canvas.

I still think it's stupid that they've left Eric single for so long. At the very least they could've paired him back up with Donna or gone through with the potential feud with Donna and Quinn. If you look at how many episodes Jennifer Garies has appeared in this year, the screentime is there, but they are paying her to sit in the background. They need to actually use her if she's going to be on contract.

I think she could be useful. If they aren't going to put Quinn with Liam, the clear money couple, then a triangle with Quinn/Eric/Donna could be a big story. There is lots of comedy to be mined from a story like that, plus Donna is the type of rival that could help Quinn go more into Sheila territory. And with Pam now sane and friends with Donna, she could even be tied in as a defender of Donna which could take her to the dark side again. Hell, even Ally can be thrown in since she has had issues with sanity and issues with Quinn.

Forget Eric - sorry, it's disgusting to have the attractive 40s women paying after him (Quinn, Taylor, Donna). Utilize Deacon or Justin as foundation for a Donna/Quinn feud - either works - you've got Brooke/Hope drama with Deacon and you've got Bill drama with Justin. Dump Charlie & Pam and give Donna some of the airtime instead of sharing a desk with Pam or serving as a coffee partner to Katie or Brooke.

Oh I do agree that they should utilize Deacon and Justin as well, but Eric is a core character and considering the setting of the show it only makes sense he'd have a young wife. If we're being honest, with his history he should be marrying MAYA, not Donna, who is too old for him.

Im all for Eric and Maya. She is coming across like a young Brooke and Ive mentioned that. Why not have history repeat itself with Rick/Ridge settling for Caroline and Maya/Brooke makes a play for his father? She's already been called out on being a golddigger so why waste her time with Rick when she can go after the big boss who will likely croak in a few years leaving her the Forrester fortune? They really should play up her devious side and make Eric her target when she fails with Rick

Eric and Myrna make a ton of sense. Didn't they even tease that a few months ago?

I think Kim Matula is the soap star I feel most sorry for these days. Yes, she's rich, beautiful and semi famous, but she must want to bang her head against a wall when she gets these ridiculous, repetitive scripts. The writing for Hope is just so bad.

Hopes not the only one that' written like a dummy. Liam gets the goods on almighty Quinn and what does he do? Run over to tell Hope she's not there so he tells Wyatt and outs Quinn here's a woman who strategically plays you time and time again...yet you don't take a minute to think it through? Why out Quinn to Wyatt, I would have planned a party and fronted her off...something major.

Quinn just walks in places without knocking... Ok.

agan that's the part that bothers me. Quinn continues to assault people and commit crimes yet no one takes action against her. Why she keeps getting a free pass to continue going after people is beyond me

yikes! Those cheeks look like they are hurting

    • I don't think Chelsea has a true label just yet. She's just finding out she has an interest in women. I think the awkwardness is aligned with the character as we've seen. This is the fool who keeps filming her family when embarrassing things happen and live streaming it. I actually think it's refreshing she isn't just jumping into a relationship  and that they're playing the beats of her trying to figure out who she is.
    • Wow, do I agree with you. Chelsea is coming off as ridiculous. All she does is look for a woman to date while not caring about her business at all. That she's bi is great, but they're not writing her like she's bi. She seems to be lesbian. Yeah, I know -- "no labels." I just don't find the writing for her story to be anything other than awkward.   -- I hope we get some diagnosis finality with Bill's trip to the hospital. I don't want to see these trips to the ER every other day. -- Naomi is going to blame herself for Bill's health problems? GMAB. -- Ashley doesn't read as a real nurse in the slightest. -- Another day, another rinse and repeat conversation with Derek and Ashley. YAWN. -- Kat is making mistakes, but she's fun to watch and listen to, regardless. -- I still think the Joey/Vanessa/Doug gambling story sucks. I know Doug is deeply in debt, but I don't like him acting this meek and submissive.  -- I'm not sure what Joey's plan was from the beginning, or why he had to seduce Vanessa at all to get his way. I'm not sure what Vanessa ever saw in Joey -- why doesn't he give her the ick? -- I'm fine with a story where Doug and Vanessa take out Joey.  -- The fades to commercials were pretty bad today.
    •   Victoria's house (that she long ago lived in with Billy) burned down (I think Aunt Jordan set it ablaze?). Victoria briefly moved into the ranch after the fire, with Claire, Johnny and Katie, I think? Mariah and Tessa and baby Aria had been living in the tack house but they bought a house we've never seen and moved there. Victoria, Claire, and Cole then moved into the tack house as soon as Teriah left. I guess Victoria's children Johnny and Katie would live with Victoria at the tack house eventually? But Johnny and Katie went to boarding school during the school year. Not sure if we'll see Johnny and Katie for the summer vacation or where they would live.
    • Victoria’s previous house burned down.    And I know why characters frequent Crimson Lights 3 times a day for brownies, muffins and empty mugs:   THERE’S PCP IN EVERYTHING. 
    • Today was a good episode, and the week for that matter. I think they've also done a better job with background music. The scenes in todays episode weren't as silent as they usually are in the background and it was noticeable. I think the show has found its groove well and I'm still invested. 
    • Garneau was in the Liberal party and his riding was in Montreal. He was the first Canadian in outer space.
    • I agree. I really have enjoyed this story from the beginning. I feel like it needed the time for us to care about Doug. They've done a nice job of explaining his motives and making me care for him. I still feel like he's doomed and Vanessa will end up being a widow and now I'm invested in that *not* happening now that I've fallen for him. Friday was good but so was the entire week. I think they're doing such a nice job of keeping things moving. We got good movement with Bill's story this week, Chelsea is attempting to date, Andre and Dani are having tough conversations about their relationship, of course Anita reunited with Sharon. There is *so* much going on and I didn't even cover all of it.  I wish all of the soaps would take a page out of BTG book and start rotating their stories. I love that everybody is getting a chance to shine and they don't just sit on one lead story to the point you get sick of it.
