Bold and Beautiful August 2021 Discussion

Gotcha, it just sounds really off the wall for someone like Taylor to all the sudden be a missionary with no explanation as to why. No wonder Tylo refuses to come back.

I've thought the last few episodes have been pretty decent. Although the constant talk about no drama and settling down, etc, was a bit overdone. Of course, that's never going to happen. I've found myself enjoying most of the scenes though without wanting to fastforward. 

For a show set around the fashion industry, it amazes me how poorly Ridge and Thomas are styled. Nothing about them looks "trendy". They look like they could have come from the 60's. Just putting them in a suit does not clean them up. Those in the fashion industry would realize that!

The choices for the wedding weren’t good. Hopes dress was terrible and Paris’s want much better. These ladies have great figures, it shouldn’t be difficult to dress them.  Brooke looked nice in her sparkly number. 
Thomas’s plus one was his man bun.

Haha this is the first time I ever seen Byrd in anything else but Judge Judy.
 

And yeah, the costume person needs to be fired lol Hope and Paris’ dresses were just ugly.

Speaking of Officer Byrd, Judge Judy's finalie should have been big, but there was no fan fare at all.

I get peacemaking but Hope is a bit too forgiving for agreeing to be Steffy's maid of honor. The gesture was nice though.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the rumors behind what Finn's dad suspicious behavior is about

I had to laugh at Steffy's train being longer than the entire set.  The dress was nice.

So, there is Sheila!

Let the drama begin

Always lovely to see Sheila and her being Finn's mother is great soap. I don't have any faith they'll do it any justice but I'll enjoy her for the 20 or so episodes she's frontburner (if that).

We have talked many times about Bell's pacing but imagine how much more powerful Sheila's appearance would have been if we had been slowly treated to the mystery of his origins for months. If, even in a throwaway scene during the whole whos-the-father story, it had been hinted Finn might have a secret mother.
We literally met Finn's parents and even heard anything about his history three days ago. This is such bad pacing and plotting, sorry.

 

[AbcNbc247]

Believe me, there's nothing to be sorry about lol I don't understand why everything is moving so fast. It's hurting the show.

Word. Things just feel thrown in (see Justin’s sudden plot against Bill, which at least made *some* sense, yet it’s been seemingly abandoned). “Make it up as you go along” feels like the CBS way these days.

It is Bad Plotting 101 : Brad and Co. had brought on Finn to please most of the audience because they wanted Steffy with someone new (I did too) Yet, he didn't do any characterization for him in terms of his background. We don't even know if Finn is from California or back East? If we knew he was adopted since at least three months ago we could've gotten the mystery built up more. This felt like Brad had just thought out of this out of blue with no prior thought until a few months ago. 

I couldn't said it better myself.
