Bold and Beautiful August 2021 Discussion

I watched the Sheila episodes and it's a complete joke. They had this fake Donna Katie part... which was completely unnecesary. Everyone reacted like crazy maniacs against Sheila... She seemed the most sane of them all. I liked the smile after the slap... and that's it. Bold is finished. Nothing can save it. Not Sheila... not old music scores... Of course she is going to be taking the baby soon... yeah... i'm sure...  If feels old...  boring... slow... stupid.

Also... we know the scripts are bad... but the direction is awful too. This has become from sexy camp drama to completely fake over-acting stupid scenes in which the actors look like the are in an indian soap opera.

 

This is what Bold has become... indian soap opera, with horrible aged faces... boring young ones... 

I actually think Sheila should just kill the whole cast in 1 dramatic episode and the show should be over. Yeah... It's a joke. But I really do wish it...

Also... when is Brooke going to hook up with Finn and get pregnant. I need this.

 

Girl, bye.

See, my speculation was going the other way in my head. I was picturing Sheila using Paris to drive a wedge between Finn and Steffy. But now that ya'll say it, it does make sense she would want to keep them together to have an excuse to be in the Forresters' lives.
I guess it is hard to guess whether they are going to go with "Sheila enjoying being a Forrester in-law" or "Sheila getting more revenge". Kinda the problem with the writing for Sheila in the past fifteen years: her motives are not always consistent.

I hope they don't go the Finn/Paris route. Finn just got married and has been written as all in with Steffy. It would make no sense he'd wander that quickly/easily. Can't this show do anything besides triangles/affairs??

Speaking of making no sense, Eric doing a 180 with Quinn and not wanting to divorce her all of a sudden. WTH??? One would think with Sheila back, Eric would be even more insistent on less drama/chaos in his life and want away from these women. I know this is just a plot point to mess with Quinn/Carter, but still. They can't come up with some other kind of conflict to slow down Quinn/Carter?

Dearest Finn,

 

     Did you really just try to confide a secret to Paris?   Asking for a friend...

                                                                    Cautioning you now,

                                                                                    Quinn and Carter

I hate everything with this story since the affair was revealed.
Eric's 180 was given ZERO lead-in. Quinn's motives for going back are not explained at all. There is no exploration of how everyone feels and why they do what they do.
They are giving us zero beat or conflict. Just having things happen in a vacuum.

B&B is way too rushed and underdeveloped. Its seems they make up the plots as they go along. Justin’s takeover of Spencer should still be occurring  parallel to Sheila and Carter/Quinn/Eric. They rush through storylines just to have nothing going on afterwards.

It is too rushed. I get they want to set up Shelia vs Quinn but it bothers me that Quinn had to run back to Eric without a second thought to Carter. Quinn’s not a gold digger, Eric’s family treats her like crap, no reason to go back.

I hope Justin returns soon.

    • Beth #1 being recast right before she and Eric come face to face was jarring.  We spent the first 50 episodes or so getting to know Beth and see her rapport with her kids, co worker, and even her mother in law. Her Beth seemed content with her kids and job as caterer, but you could tell she also had a faraway look that you just knew meant that she dreamed of what life would have been like had she and Eric gotten together.   Plus, she came across as someone that you could see eventually moving into more wealthy circles based on her demeanor.   Seeing Beth always looking off into space probably helped fuel Brooke's dreams of wealth because she saw how unfulfilled her mother was.  Once Beth was recast starting in episode 52, that whole vibe completely changed and Beth #2 seemed to almost like living the middle class life.. and that her Beth would feel ill at ease around wealth, etc.
    • I agree.  I've always chalked it up to the fact that DALLAS had been a pop culture phenomenon for many years and that viewers, including viewers who'd stop watching years before, were tuning in one last time to say goodbye. Also agree that it was interesting to see KL finish 27th for the week.  Any show doing that well after 12 seasons is a miracle, lol.
    • I don't know anything BTS, but your theory seems reasonable.
    • In comparison to Maurice Johnson, sure, but he's still... stiff AF. "Leaps and bounds" is a strong exaggeration as well. Watching him is like watching paint dry. I'd recast him next, ASAP.
    • Yes! Andre easily could have just been a hunk with no real depth (like Derek) but his character is rounding out very nicely.
    • They're contract; anyone in the opening is a contract player.
    • I was watching an episode last night and noticed that Pictionary is taped in Atlanta. It's just a walk for Chandler to the studios.

    • my vote goes to Eden (Belle)! She single handed carried that show on her back !! Best family will probably be The Dingles! I have to say 2024-2025 was a mixed bag on all of them soaps ! But if I had to say which one would be the best I would give it to Emmerdale for Belle/Tom’s storyarc. It went on for too long but at least was written properly compared to others. But I do think Corrie will win best soap for Mason’s storyline  Best storyline… I wish it would be Belle and tom but the abuse story from Hollyoaks will take that 100%
    • I have to push back on this. I just don't believe it. I don't believe MVJ or anyone at BTG operates that way -- seeing a performance in reveal scenes and saying "That actor has to go." If that's the case, why aren't they doing that with other actors? We all know Maurice Johnson is FAR from the weakest actor on this soap. My feeling is that Keith Robinson became available and that someone from BTG wanted him badly from the beginning. I think this recasting was all about Robinson and not about Johnson at all. Yep, and anyone who can't see that isn't paying attention. Calling Brandon Claybon the worst actor on the show is laughable. Tomas, Ashley, and Derek might be recurring, but they're also key characters, so leaving them out of this actor discussion doesn't work. They get plenty of screen time and are on contract. The only way your narrative works about BC being the worst on the show is to ignore the rest of the cast.
