They're determined to make S2 unlikable - she was written as a complete psycho in Thursday's episode. It was all over the place just today S2 mentioned loving Wyatt, saving Wyatt from 'baby stealer,' sending flowers to Flo, how easy it was to manipulate Katie, actually having real symptoms, badgering that doctor, the WALKER and makeup.

 

Since B&B is literal - S2 'fake' sees a snake, we learn the only thing that scare her are snakes (really?) and Wyatt mentions that to Flo, who will like be on her way to an exotic pet store by Friday! 

 

Bottom line: CH is great, despite this mess because Thally is really the goal here.

Yeah, crazy Sally is too much for me. B&B ruins female characters by the boatload.

@ranger1rg I was fine with the twist when it appeared S2 was seeking revenge on Wyatt/Flo, using it to get her line in couture, etc. Instead, in only two episodes (since it wasn't featured for several), it's because she believes they are 'meant to be together.' Just yuk. Wyatt is not all that. I really don't get the arcane logic of soaps - that a woman still needs a man, even if he doesn't want her. Someone like Sally should be: "Wyatt you don't want me. No worries, I bet I can find 1000 hotter men in LA that would appreciate being a smart, creative designer who also has a rockin' body." 

 

I'm only playing it out for two reasons: 1) B&B is only 23 minutes w/ads on CAA; and 2) we're going to go several weeks without original episodes soon.

Hopefully ,which I doubt, we'll see some actual classic bold episodes due to corona.

I wonder if they'll show episodes that include RM as Ridge? I mean we're looking at least 30-40 repeats easily. Even though B&B has produced appr 1700 episodes since he left, but there's 33 full years available and episodes that would be interesting to watch.

 

Of course, CBS may pull Y&R/B&B repeats for games shows or special programming, which will probably do better in ratings. They won't go back to production until July 1.

They really need to start including more than one storyline in each episode again.

Yeah, just when I so glad we FINALLY stopped with the Thomas/Hope madness now we have this foolishness with Sally which is unfortunate along with her now acting like she is the new Sheila. The goals of Sally wanting a leash on Wyatt and the doctor wanting to fulfill her dreams of being a "fashion designer at Forrester Creations" are just silly and utterly preposterous. Today's ep featured a scene where Katie and Steffy mope about poor Sally almost in the same way Liam and Hope mourned Emma's death, its just absurd. 
 

Given that Thomas fake fell into a vat of acid, I wonder what Sally is going fake fall into?

Destroying Sally to prop FelonFlo UGHHHHHHHHHH

[ranger1rg]

B&B is great at destroying female characters (Sally) and terrible at redeeming female characters (Flo).

 

Even more gagworthy is to watch Sally belittle and trash herself like this, all for a garbage POS like Wyatt.

'B&B' Heads Back to Paris With Hope and Liam

They'll never run out of Liam specials to show... interesting they're using an episode featuring Kim Matula. I guess Annicka is too new.

damn...Brad Bell and his unhealthy obsession....

For years I’ve wondered if Thorsten can shave.  It’s not that I don’t like him but damn:  it’s ok to shave once. 

I’m watching reruns of talk shows rather than this mess.  Apparently other people are too from looking at the ratings.  Older guys are the ones watching BB and Y&R and their money doesn’t count.
