B&B: November 2020 Discussion Thread

[Faulkner]

OK, I’ll own up to it. I laughed my ass off when Liam discovered the Hope doll.

It’s the kind of campy reveal B&B does best.

It was a hilarious moment for sure. Add to the fact the show is playing up a very silly “mystery of the missing mannequin” adds to the utter ridiculousness of it all.

 

Haha it was this time last year when we had vats of acid being used for Thomas’ “death”.

 

I suppose next year we’ll get some story about Thomas being the “Phantom of Forrester Creations” with a mask or him holding his boy Vinny or Finn in cage.

Okay, I’ll be the one to say it. I’m... perplexed by Paris’ hairline.

I didn't watch...but did Thomas knock Liam in the head and hold him hostage and tell him his name is Adam, and Thomas' name is "Eve" and they'll have mad monkey sex in front of mannequin Hope?

And then Vinny walked in, took his shirt off and joined in lol

Just reading, so ridiculous.  I am kind of glad I pretty much quit Y&R and B&B...total waste of time.  I actually make things up in my head and then they DO IT.  B&B especially.  The show is a merry go round of incest.

Well I doubt they’ll let Thomas kill Liam so let’s just get his brain tumor or whatever diagnosed. I’m tired of looking at the mannequin.

I can already hear Brooke’s annoying voice as she whines to Ridge a about Thomas. 

[Fevuh]

When is Thomas’ dinner with the mannequin and when does Vinny ever come home? 

[soapfan770]

I wonder if we’ll see Thomas have a romp with the mannequin? LOL this story is sooooo dreadful

Hunter Tylo is above coming back to daytime since she's apparently a Billionaire.  If Taylips isn't coming back, why can't they re-cast with Lips Rinna?  

[AbcNbc247]

As ridiculous as it is, I do have to admit that Matthew Atkinson is doing a really good job. I may laugh at the mannequin a lot but I don't often laugh at him.

Im just seeing this and thinking, "you cant do this, this isn't Passions!". Rock bottom has arrived.

I agree. He is a very good actor. The story’s dumb, but he’s selling Thomas’s psychosis.

[ranger1rg]

Agreed. Atkinson has been terrific. What doesn’t work at all is having Hope and Steffy be so calm and nonchalant about Thomas having a Hope mannequin. Makes no sense.

[Faulkner]

The Carter/Zoe/Zende/Paris quad is so lazily written. Carter is in the Peter Parros/Dr. Ben role as the decent guy who can’t see what’s in front of his face. The CBS/Bell soaps both rushed through these Af-Am quads onto the front burner, and the stories are threadbare. It’s doing the actors and the audience a disservice.
