Lawrence St. Victor did a great job these past couple episodes. 

 

I couldn't help but notice though that as the Carter/Zoe confrontation came to a head, "the black storyline" *still* wasn't the leadout story to commercial breaks. Instead, it was the Liam/Hope/Steffy garbage where literally nothing progressed in their storyline. Hmm...

I saw the end of Thursday (yesterday), the very end and I wanted to absolutely smack Brooke into the next Century.  There was a scene with her riding Steffy and she said something like, "you better hope this baby is Finn's".   

 

OR WHAT you whore?  Brooke slept her way through the Forrester men, and then was basically the same character as Liam for a couple of years where she bounced happily between Bill and Ridge, and Ridge and Bill, and Bill and Ridge, following her vagina.  Slept at one time with her daughter's husband - a man she didn't even really want - she was just feeling bad for herself when Thorne kicked her to the curb, and Hope turned out to be Deacon's...and on and on.  She always acts like she's never made a mistake and never had mistaken sex.  Hope has also bedded a few guys in her time spur of the moment when she thought things weren't going her way.  I hate them.  LOL.  

 

I need to read and see if they did the reveal of Baby Daddy or they'll probably let that go on for another week.

+1 Scary Spice who was British but really isn't.  In the words of my Sister, she says - she UGLAYYYY.  It's OK to be normal and not completely beautiful but they make her a model?  God.  It's a general problem with B&B if you have a brain.  Fashion houses don't have "lead models".  They did the same with Myron.  It's so dumb.  You go pick the people you want for Fashion Week.  People just don't know.

How dare that old whore Brooke go after Steffy? How many times did Brooke not know who her baby daddy’s were? She spread her legs for her own son in law!  She’s ridiculously invested in Hope being with that scumbag Liam. Ridge needs to put his old whore to pasture and get with someone new. I think he should bang Donna for shi#ts and giggles.

I’m glad Paris stood up to her nasty sister.

They're not smart enough but I'd have Kyle's love child be Flo's (Y&R B&B crossover), Retcon a little and Flo travelled for a year and jumped Kyle's bones.  And it's actually Beth, who "died" on B&B, and Flo the Felon actually did give birth and let Dr. Buckingham sell the baby because she didn't want it.  So Hope's baby really did die and is baby-less.  Flo and Kyle are the parents.  Beth died.  And let Sally get that information and go after Summer and Kyle.

It sounds like it's going to turn to be a forced conflict between Ridge and Brooke. Which is ridiculous. If you ask me, both Ridge and Brooke need to beat the crap out of Liam. After all these years, I don't understand how either of them could actually still like him.

    • I'm screaming at those clips and gifs.  THIS IS PURE GOLD.

    • That's always been my thought. I can't imagine that the show would play up the unseen AD so far in advance without them casting a *star*. After today's episode, I wonder if he'll somehow be connected with Diane. It was strange that Diane mentioned her very distant family today. I can't recall Diane ever talking about her backstory. Maybe he's her much younger brother?  It's also possible he's connected to Diane during her time in LA. Sally's already said she crossed paths with him. OC, I think Dumas is Mariah's mistake.... As a side note, it was good to see some mixing it up - Adam with Clare/Kyle and Sharon with Tessa.
    • Here's the place to share some memorable criticism. You don't have to agree with it, of course (that's often where the fun starts). Like I mentioned to @DRW50, Sally Field was a favorite punching bag in the late '80s and early '90s.   Punchline (the 1988 movie where she and Tom Hanks are stand ups): "It's impossible to tell the difference between Miss Field's routines that are supposed to be awful, and the awful ones that are supposed to be funny." -- Vincent Canby, New York Times. "It's not merely that Field is miscast; she's miscast in a role that leaves no other resource available to her except her lovability. And (David) Seltzer's script forces her to peddle it shamelessly." -- Hal Hinson, Washington Post. "As a woman who can't tell a joke, Sally Field is certainly convincing. ... Field has become an unendurable performer ... She seems to be begging the audience not to punch her. Which, of course, is the worst kind of bullying from an actor. ... She's certainly nothing like the great housewife-comedian Roseanne Barr, who is a tough, uninhibited performer. Sally Field's pandering kind of 'heart' couldn't be further from the spirit of comedy." -- David Denby, New York   Steel Magnolias: The leading ladies: Dolly Parton: "She is one of the sunniest and most natural of actresses," Roger Ebert wrote. Imagining that she probably saw Truvy as an against-type role, Hinson concluded it's still well within her wheelhouse. "She's just wearing fewer rhinestones." Sally Field: "Field, as always, is a lead ball in the middle of the movie," according to Denby . M'Lynn giving her kidney to Shelby brought out David's bitchy side. "I can think of a lot more Sally Field organs that could be sacrificed." Shirley MacLaine: "(She) attacks her part with the ferociousness of a pit bull," Hinson wrote. "The performance is so manic that you think she must be taking off-camera slugs of Jolt." (I agree. If there was anyone playing to the cheap seats in this movie, it's Shirley.) Olympia Dukakis: "Excruciating, sitting on her southern accent as if each obvious sarcasm was dazzlingly witty," Denby wrote. Daryl Hannah: "Miss Hannah's performance is difficult to judge," according to Canby, which seems to suggest he took a genuine "if you can't say something nice ..." approach. Julia Roberts: "(She acts) with the kind of mega-intensity the camera cannot always absorb," Canby wrote. That comment is so fascinating in light of the nearly 40 years Julia has spent as a Movie Star. She is big. It's the audience who had to play catch up. And on that drag-ish note ... The movie itself: "You feel as if you have been airlifted onto some horrible planet of female impersonators," Hinson wrote. Canby: "Is one supposed to laugh at these women, or with them? It's difficult to tell." Every review I read acknowledged the less than naturalistic dialogue in ways both complimentary (Ebert loved the way the women talked) and cutting (Harling wrote too much exposition, repeating himself like a teenager telling a story, Denby wrote). Harling wrote with sincerity and passion, Canby acknowledged, but it's still a work of "bitchiness and greeting card truisms." The ending was less likely to inspire feeling good as it was feeling relieved, according to Denby. "(It's) as if a group of overbearing, self-absorbed, but impeccable mediocre people at last exit from the house."
    • I tend to have two minds about Tawny (Kathy Najimy) fainting during Soapdish's big reveal. You're the costume designer, if anything, you should have known the whole time. I guess it's an application of what TV Tropes calls the "Rule of Funny." Every time I watch Delirious, I always want the genuine romance in John and Mariel's reunion at the deli counter to last longer. Film critics had their knives out for Sally in this period. I'll start a separate thread on the movies page.
    • I don't think so, but I wouldn't be surprised if he was Dumas this whole time.
    • Tamara Tunie was serving up grand dame diva fierceness.
    • Nick told Victoria that he and Sharon had married in England.  Victoria was shocked.  Then she realized he was kidding.  He confirmed it was a joke and they're platonic. I don't even know what to say about that.
