November 29, 201510 yr Member I think a recurring gay character in the way that Rafael was would be enough for me. Gay storylines are boring on soaps anyway. It's just not interesting when there are only 2 or maybe 3 gays, and the B&B cast isn't that big anyway.
November 29, 201510 yr Member It's not interesting because more effort is never made with soaps and gay tales....
November 30, 201510 yr Member B&B needs a SERIOUS reboot. I'm still shocked it hasn't happened. I figured after the mess between Aly and Labor Day, we'd be seeing a revamped show by October for sure - the way they killed the Drunk Brooke story, etc. I really don't understand. I had two chances to watch (Tuesday and Wednesday when I was home), but opted for cable news instead. We're closing in on the longest non-regular watching since Steffy/Liam/Hope revamped the show. I'm bummed, but I will continue to read dailies and lurk.Â

I'm bummed, but I will continue to read dailies and lurk. I've been thinking this for awhile....EVERYTHING needs to revamped IMO.......I honestly feel like Brad Bell should just stick around as EP and they can hire a new HW to "fix" the show.....I feel like all the characters have or had potential but Bell relies too heavenly on the same troupes he thinks have always made the show successful...and that might have worked for a while but now it's just gotten stale and tiresome so I really think certain characters need a shakeup.....
November 30, 201510 yr Member The show is BORING!! Â There is no real good storyline going on!! There is NOTHING!!
November 30, 201510 yr Member so who wants to start a petition for a regime change at this show?! LOL:D
November 30, 201510 yr Member No. Bell is not a terrible writer and the other soaps are not any better (personally I don't have any interest in the others). Â Though I find myself scratching my head often, at the end of the day B&B still feels like B&B, and is still about the Forresters, Spencers and Logans. That would be a lot different if someone like Carlivati would step in. We should be happy that B&B is still somewhat in the hands of the creators. I'm sure it will turn around in a few months and it will be must-see TV again.
November 30, 201510 yr Member This show has NOTHING working right now. Â It's awful. Â Bill is being wasted!

Bell is more than capable of turning out an amazing soap and we see that every year as B&B, unlike others can and does quickly recover. I think he could use a co-writer or maybe let someone headwriter while he remains as EP, but I dont think he should be completely removedÂ
