Oh... my... God...... That was worse than anything I could have imagined. Horrific!

 

And how the hell did they end up on the side of the parking lot when they ran towards each other and met in the middle? Was everyone fυcking asleep when filming this???

 

 

HUH??

 

She looked like a sex worker with a misplaced wig!

While 2017 has been pretty "dry" so far, I just saw John McCook in facebook live chat with Tracey Bregman announce that B&B is finally doing an Australia remote which was rumored ever since last year.

 

Filiming starts next week... Hopefully this will be lightyears ahead of the previous Sydney remote in 2007!

Why do you people watch this mess still?....LOL

 

More is to come with that awful Aussie remote. I am so glad I gave up this show. It was just too much!

 

Bradley needs for B&B ratings to fall so that he will make changes.

I dove back in starting with the SF scenes - it's been nice not having the exact same dialogue that we've endured for the past six weeks. Of course, this will kick off another six weeks of repetitiveness - replaying the kiss at least 6-10 week; Eric talking about how happy he is that Quidge are so close - complete with Quidge giving each other uncomfortable teen-crush like glances, Steffy's angst over 'sharing' FC with Widge (and BloatMas undermining her), WyNOT doing something that nobody cares about, $B fretting like a ninny over Brooke's return, etc.

Last week everyone was fine with Steffy being CEO and now all of a sudden Thomas AND Rick are both trying to angle the position away from her. Of course this is happening just as Ridge is about to swoop in and get that responsibility from from under them

 

Does anyone know what purpose Katie serves bc I fail to see one.

They had to give Thomas something to do since his story with Ridge and Caroline flopped. I'd rather them write off Thomas. Bradley Bell has never known how to write for the character. If you're name isn't Liam then he ain't writing for you.  So Rick now cares after saying that Maya was the only thing he needed. How quick he forgot.

 

This soap is just full of sh!t.  It will never improve until someone else HW the soap. Bradley Bell needs to leave his position of HW.

Sometimes I have to wonder at this point WTF you are talking about.  I honestly haven't been watching for 1 month (since Christmas - 5 minutes once a week?) - before that - about 15 minutes a week - but for 3 years this show has been written for Quinn/Rena Sofer.  I'm tired of hearing every girl/triangle, every story blamed but Rena Sofer/Quinn never gets ANY blame for very very POOR story.  She's nothing but a plot point.  I tuned in on Friday and it looked like Ridge was in love with her.  What a *ucking waste of story to build this entire show around Quinn and trying to get her son whatever he wants.  How OLD are these people???  I tuned in 3 or 4 years ago for the first time since like 2000 or 2001.  Quinn has eaten the hell out of this show.  There's no room for anything else.  I hated Liam with Hope, I hated Liam with Ivy, I've hate Liam too.  But no other character is talking 24/7 about LIAM when he's NOT ONSCREEN.  EVERY character for the past year has to talk about QUINN even when she's NOT on the show!  She has DEVOURED this show all the way down to the lowest ratings they've ever had.  It's a FACT.  And it's not an alternative FACT.

LOL....Soapsuds detests Liam so thats where the bias comes from. You are right in that Quinn has been the #1 plot point for the past year. All of Liam's stuff has revolved around her. Outside of the Avant stuff, everything really can be traced back to Quinn in some form. Everyone talks about her. People plot against her and she's the central motivation for almost anything that has happened

The thing is Quinn will be gone soon or forgotten by Bradley Bell. His villians don't last long but Liam continues appearing like the Energizer Bunny. He keeps going and going with the same story.

She's been on the show for 3 and a half years and she isnt written as a villian anymore and hasnt been since last spring. In his mind, Bell has redeemed her and the way she's currently positioned the characters are coming around to her as two of her biggest haters, Steffy and Ridge have finally let up on her. Quinn isnt going anywhere and she's had a variation of the same story since she joined which is plotting to make sure Wyatt gets what he wants

WTH is Katie badmouthing Quinn in her own house? She's dumb as if Quinn couldnt hear all that

 

Liam and Steffy have no material now that they have nothing keeping them apart so the show just filled up the episode with the same flashbacks we always see

    • Olivia did have a good reason for what she did. Still, I'd think she would be slower to pass such harsh judgment on Lois since she knows what she herself lived through. I'm hoping we get a softer Olivia when she reflects on everything.   I'm going to disagree with this. I don't think the character has been ruined and trashed, and I don't think it's impossible to come back from this. Yes, a great case can be made that this is out-of-character for Lois, but I can also make a case for people doing out-of-character things when life deals us crazy and impossible moments. Because of the story we're getting from this, I think it was worth putting Lois into this situation.

    • Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum but I have been a soap opera fan for only a few years. I started watching General Hospital in the 2010s on tv due to boredom. It wasn't good but it was okay enough to get curious about the soap opera genre. When I eventually got internet I started researching 90s and 2000s General Hospital. I have started only recently researching 80s and 90s Days of Our Lives. I was shocked when I found out that a black soap opera is going to be made, especially because the genre as a whole was on a downward trajectory. Now here I am as a black woman seeing a soap opera from the start. I'm all for Beyond the Gates succeeding.

    • That was so surprising to me today. I didn’t see any spoilers that this was coming up so I loved it!
    • Well, VI was leaving, and while Long admits that killing him was stupid...I do agree with letting him go with a big bang...body missing.  They spent a lot of time and money on Infinity, (which I think might have gotten a bit of a better reputation had it not been the harbinger of a total tonal change with the Bauers and Reardon's decimated and its all Reva and the Lewis and the weird people hanging out around Kyle) so they needed it to end dramatically. They could have done so much more with having Alex go after Kyle and Billy, but that ends and she starts moping over weird and boring Simon. With Kurt..what were you going to do.. cute but boring and perfect and with ties to no one (they had a nice little thing where Bea took him under her wing when everyone left but then she did too..) If they had the balls they would have had Rick and Mindy jump in the sack ( I know, Mindy should have learned birth control by then) I would have had it be Mindy who knows about Rick's drug use and she tries to help him...(not that nobody who came and went) of course, Kurt and Roxie misunderstand..that on top of her bad Sampson Girl thing leaves him to leave her temporarily, and in grand soap tradition, Rick and Mindy console each other (again, I would write it that they always really did, and Mindy rushed into things with Kurt) and she gets knocked up, and loving Rick but also Kurt she chooses to believe it is Kurts (which I could see Princess Mindy doing "My life is perfect and I will it that way, this is Kurts kid")But, she had the dumb model thing, then she burned down the house he was building, she tried to get prefers and he dies (but also Kobe was the one who built him up, then she was gone when he was let go.) Ross believe it or not is one of the last of the "old guard" characters, beside Ed (who is now FauxEd) and Maureen, and Henry and Van (who is ties to being the Lewis family mope.) JVD has made jokes that they didn't write him out as they simply forgot that he was there! Reva doesn't even call her mother when she comes back! I never saw the use of Sarah but they could have reunited them and sent her and Hawk out of town together. Hell, I don't like the Shaynes but she should have mentioned Roxie and Rusty.  The weird thing is that Dylan had a ton of story and was very important to the Van/Bridget baby custody story. By the time Reva comes back Dylan had only been gone a year so its not like people wouldn't know him..( I liked him and Bridget together...) So he comes back in 97 and acts like it's no big deal Reva is alive so they must have talked off camera. But Reva was too busy squacking about that annoying toothy Marah and blank Shayne to talk about anything else.  It's not quite as weird as Van, who obsessed over Peter, comes back to SF and never mentions him...i.e. "I saw Peter this weekend and he so barely remembers me but he is happy with Bridget and Dylan...") 
    • Excellent! The OLTL-GH promo places this and the RH episode (which I assume aired directly before this AMC) as airing during the week of Aug. 20.
    • Thanks! There's never enough early 1980s AMC around.    The only actor I don't recognize is the actress playing Wanda, Mike's agent.
