B&B August 2018 Discussion Thread

Now that Bell married Liam and Hope off, I hope they recede into the wallpaper like some of the other couples on this show.  It's so silly...drop one marriage and they're married 2 days later.

The wedding just shows how many people are just sitting around doing nothing on this canvas.  Why is Rena Sofer 👏🏾 on 👏🏾 this 👏🏾 show? Will they eventually have her go crazy on Sally 2.0?

This whole wedding was a mess. Brooke and Taylor are written as jokes. How much I miss the real Taylor in the 90s.

I truly can't stand the actress that is playing Hope.

Well I posted before somewhere....it didn't take long.  I mentioned when Xander would become a photographer like Zende did, since Zoe is basically a replacement for Sasha or Nicole....they ditched Oliver so that Zende could be the photographer, and now Xander is taking photos of a little runway shoot.  Wash, rinse, repeat.

Whhhaaattt???  I didn't know Karla Mosley was pregnant!!?!?!  She gave birth to a baby girl a couple weeks ago.  Apologies in advance if this has already been posted somewhere.

Is there a thread for this JJY interview? I feel like there must be and I'm just board blind or something. He told some truth in it that's for sure. Seems pretty clear he doesn't mean to come back long term. Ever.

Very interesting. What was the Rick/Maya story they gave to the interns? That plot is a hot mess.

 

 

[Juliajms]

I'm not sure because I haven't watched in six months. He said it was whatever story Ingo (Thorne) has with the interns.  He made is so clear that he doesn't think much of the writers didn't he? Damn. Also, that he's basically been replaced by Ingo. That they basically can't afford both of them.  I was surprised by his candor until he said he's not interested in a contract again.

Did Jacob Young get any credit with WGA for his story?  If not, that is thoroughly dirty by Brad Bell.

Even if they made changes, he should still get credit for the story.  It's the ethical thing to do. I haven't watched this show in forever, so I don't know what story he's referring to but as a writer it vexes my spirit to hear about Brad doing this.

I can count the amount of times that I was on Hope or Brooke's corner over the years on one hand, but I did feel Steffy was a bit out of line. Secluding herself from the decision as Co-CEO but asking Hope to drop her line and pleading with Ridge to keep hers felt a bit.. contradictory. Brooke storming in at the end of Friday's episode and going on a rant was fun. Can't wait for tomorrow's confrontation between her and Steffy.

 

This whole HFTF vs. Intimate's thing is really contrived though. I know a lot of characters have, rightfully, been asking why a decision needs to be made, but no matter how many times Ridge repeats it, it's still too obvious a plot point.

[SteelCity]

I just hope that Brooke and Steffy get somewhat physical! Please!

I had a very vivid dream last night that Bill Spencer brutally murdered Wyatt to keep him quiet about something. That didn’t really happen, did it? 😲😜

 

Might actually make a decent story, and it’s not like Wyatt is doing anything these days.
