I think that Liam looks bad in this storyline with Steffy/Hope. I think he looks really bad proposing to/sleeping with Hope right after he just decided to end things with Steffy. He should have told Steffy what it exactly was he thought she did with  Dollar Bill. And if he didn't believe her explanation he could have moved on from there. Though, not with Hope right away. Ridge is right, he seems like he's afraid to be alone for even a little bit. 

 

Dollar Bill also looks terrible for multiple reasons, including leering over his son's wife, and acting like he loves her, when he too probably just doesn't want to be alone. (And also probably will never completely get over Brooke).

 

And Hope is coming across as really desperate.

I'm in my twilight thirties and I have soooo many friends from high school and college, as well as cousins my age, who still aren't married and without children. Others who didn't start having them until a few years ago.

The only thing I'm looking forward to seeing with this mess right now is the inevitable Brooke/Taylor confrontation coming soon.  And I'm kind of afraid I'm going to be disappointed in that.  The way Steffy just let Brooke trash her and Taylor today with barely a comeback (though I kind of enjoyed the Stephanie vibes coming from Brooke) is making me believe that any Brooke/Taylor confrontation will solely be used to boost Hope and Brooke.  Taylor has already been retconned as a crazy, horrible, neglectful mother, and now she's being re-visioned as the manipulative homewrecking side piece.

Brooke is old school trash but she told no lies.  Steffy stalked Liam and interfered with Hope's relationship until Liam gave in.  This is her Karma.  However, for these older adults to be this involved and for no one to want better for these 2 young women than this waffling jackass is beyond ridiculous!  This is Brook, Taylor and Katie from years ago over involved in this rancid triangle.  Liam as the center of the show is so pathetic.  Leading men are strong and don't need to be propped!

So let Brooke not forget she cheated on her husband - Eric with his son Ridge.  I just wish Steffy would use that!  And let's not forget all of the times Brooke had a new destiny, and that she was just married to Bill.  Brooke is no saint and should have never said all those things to Steffy.  It is time for mama bear Taylor to put Brooke back in her spot- Just not the current crazy Taylor.

LOL.  And how many times will we have a storyline where Bill tells Wyatt he can HAVE EVERYTHING!  ALL you do is LISTEN TO ME and you'll have EVERYTHING!  Pathetic.  What's worse is the writing, but it's the same at Y&R.  Anyone and everyone will trust Victor Newman.  For absolutely no reason that history has EVER shown.  It's just so bad.  I tune in to see how bad it's going to get.  Back in the day - their filming and production got bad, but ATWT and Guiding Light were NEVER this badly written with the same thing year after year after year.

There’s literally nothing going on but Hope/Liam/Steffy/Bill, and if you’re not interested, there’s no reason to watch. Everyone else featured (Brooke, Ridge, Wyatt, Taylor, Justin) is supporting that narrative, and everyone looks stupid. 

 

They could fire John McCook, Rena, Karla, Reign, Ingo, et al and save a whole lot of cash.

Yep.  Exactly.  And Katherine Kelly Lang too.  I despise when she and Melody Thomas Scott on Y&R do the quiet little baby baby breathy talk.  They both do it.  Horrible.  Breathy horrible baby baby talk.

(breathe out more and more baby talk).  "Taylorrrrrrrrr.....Steffffffffy is baddddddddd baddddd girllllllllll.  she did this to herselllllffffffffff"  (more breathy baby baby talk).

    • Bringing this over from the soccer/soaps ratings thread yesterday:  Errol said: "CBS put out a notice that it could preempt at a moment's notice as the Pope selection continues, dependent on how long it takes, of course." New pope just chosen, name to be announced soon. Yeah CBS-NewYork channel 2 is airing Pope coverage and not Y&R right now.
    • @brisbydog - I like that you have a signature font, très chic Abe and Paulina's new apartment was the first thing I noticed.  I don't understand why people over a certain age in Salem automatically move into a condo? When it seems just as simple to make the set seem like a detached home.  But, I will give points to attention to detail of choosing colors that compliment the Black actors in the scene. Which then led to the second thing I noticed.  Why would EJ want Kayla's office, when his is 3xs the size?  Also, even if he buys the hospital, won't Kayla get to keep her office? Lastly, can we at least give Cat the agency to decide on her own with whom she wishes to date?  Do men actually need to negotiate on her behalf?  She's stunning.  My advice would be if Chad is friend-zoning her after a year together, move on to his richer brother.
    • OH!!! I love it. I can't believe I missed that. In one of the 2 fan events held the 2 years after the sorry end of our lovely show, both  Anna Stuart & Stephen Schnetzer attended & I got to talk to each of them. Obviously I was in heaven. Although at least I didn't do my shy star struck thing.
    • We probably won't get any of our CBS soaps today cause of the Pope stuff, cause you know they have to air it on regular network despite having 24/7 news channels

    • I still don't know when/how did Iris find out about Evan's connection to Janice?
    • lol Cass and Donna went on a bowling date!
    • As well as insulting our host, being rude to some of the nicest members who correct you, and having an inflated sense of duty. While others may be able to add numerous offenses, the egocentrism to force any conversation off-topic to focus on you is the most egregious act for me.  This is light entertainment, an interactive discussion, not the shallotpeel-hour.
    • Yes, that is why. I mean, not last minute but it was not what Shapiro originally wanted. First, she tried to buy the show. Then she tried to buy the character. Meanwhile several other companies also tried to buy the show. 
    • I thought I had stopped & then I saw this post from you. To be clear I said I was wrong. I have not made an attempt at any backpedaling. There is literally no place to back pedal to. I did 3 things. I deleted. i apologized. I said I was wrong, egregiously so. 
    • I think bringing Dano back to OLTL as her original character Gretel/Rae was a last minute thing because P & G wouldn't let ABC use the Felicia character. So even though she had ties to OLTL from back in the day, she just didn't fit into the OLTL of the late 90s/early 00s.. nor did she really fit into the other soaps at ABC either.
