Paris moving in with Finn & Steffy is completely random and kind of dumb lol.

So is the fact that Quinn and Carter are still continuing their affair in secret  even though Carter offered to leave Forrester. There is absolutely no stakes to the story anymore and is senseless.

Why exactly did Finn & Steffy name their kid Hayes? Lol I know she used it professionally for years but the name came from her unbalanced ex. Wouldn’t Hamilton, Jack, or yes even naming him after Taylor have been more appropriate? Maybe Thudley forgot his own show’s history. 
 

Agreed. Not to mention the conversations and phone calls Ridge & Eric keep making to Carter are really contrived. Like why does Carter need to be at their constant beck and call?

I think this is actually a case of the writers forgetting the show's history. Either that, or Steffy is unaware of where the name Hayes came from.

And the whole situation with Carter is contrived - especially the idea that out of all the lawyers in LA, Eric would trust Carter to represent him in the divorce. It's right up there with new parents Steffy and Finn offering Paris to come live with them.

I guess if there was anything left in terms of psychological realism, it just went out the window this week.

According to the spoiler regarding as to why Finn is apprehensive everytime Steffy mentions his parents. I'm like that's not some big bad secret Brad. Unless something else occurred for it to be so.

Wait did Steffy really call her son 'Hayes'. I'm not gonna lie I'm kind of digging the way B&B handles the character names. It's wildly unimaginative, sure, but I do like how he's always keeping it close to home. We already have a Logan. Spencer's probably coming as that one user already posted.

Hope named her daughter after her grandmother Beth. Not to mention Brad simply slapped the names Bill, Caroline and Sally on their new counterparters. Steffy was named after Stephanie. 

We have Eric who named his son Rick. And of course Bridget which is Brooke + Ridge combined. Ridge who has a son called R.J. (Ridge Jr.). 

Bill has sons named Will and Liam. I think that's just hilarious.

I looked up the real names of Brad's children and of course one of his sons is named Brad.

    • Thanks, msn drives me nuts on the one hand but on the other hand their headlines appeal to me. And, I just don't do FoxNews. 
    • The link doesn't work.  The actual link is this: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/composer-leonard-bernstein-s-children-request-his-music-be-played-in-the-kennedy-center-in-rebuke-to-trump/ar-AA1E7gw5 That's a reprint of a FoxNews article. MSN reprints stuff from many sources. You can tell the source from the logo above the headline on the msn page. The FoxNews article is describing what Leonard Bernstein's children wrote -- as a "letter to the editor" of the New York Times. Instead of reading it filtered through FoxNews, here is the original: "Our Dad, Leonard Bernstein, Would Want His Music Played at the Kennedy Center" https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/opinion/kennedy-center-leonard-bernstein-protest.html Non-paywall archivedcopy of the same NYTimes letter, without commentary: https://archive.is/QaLqD
    • Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.
    • What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.
    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.  
    • I said this on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago, so perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. In addition, Leslie did say she grew up listening to The Articulettes too.
    • There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.
    • ah thanks! do you know who the third one was in the blonde? the fifth one i know ive seen before in the brown wig but i forgot, and then ive never seen the psychic one before lol
    • I felt for Ted early on but as the story unfolded it has changed my opinion on him. To know he was cheating while his wife was struggling to give him a baby is a lot to deal with. Plus, this happened ages ago and still he's paying Leslie off and threatening her to leave town.  What really caused me to lose him in this episode was how even though he was busted, he still refused to take responsibility and come clean and the way he talked to Martin and Eva was terrible. To tell Smitty he better get Martin away from him when that is his SON who he used to cover up his affair? That is true dog behavior. Ted seems upset he got caught but I'm not seeing the remorse I would need to want Nicole to forgive him. I'm curious how I'll feel after Ted gets to talk to Nicole but I need him to fix it with the rest of the family as well.
