Speaking of Forresters and family, the lacking of additional Forrester family members beyond Ridge’s family for the current Ridge/Brooke situation is both outright glaring and appalling. No Kristen to give both motherly and sisterly advice? No Bridget to be completely stunned/floored by Brooke & Deacon’s night together while harboring old feelings for Deacon herself? No RJ to beg his parents to stay together? No Rick, Thorne, and Felicia to conspire together to throw push Ridge & Brooke out of Forrester because of all the drama, with Rick especially tearing Ridge a new one? No Eric III, Dino, and Logan Knight to start the next generation of Forresters? Yeesh. 
 

I enjoy Grace though; a recast Zoe could make this story more whole though.

All of this, and it gulls me that the elephant in the room is that Steffy and Thomas are not even Forresters. When is this show going to use that to get them kicked out of the company?? Thorne can do that in a minute if they ever revisited how Ally really died, and This would be his ultimate payback for all the times Ridge caused him grief too.

LMAO it’s so easy to forget. I think the last time the Marone connection was stated was a few years ago when I can’t remember if it was either Rick or Bill (I’m 75% sure it was Bill) who said it while mocking Ridge. One of Thudley’s first “big shocking plot twists” that was a total dud; Ridge, like Phillip on GL remains the favorite golden boy of the family. Maybe if Stephanie was revealed to be Nick’s mother instead of Ridge being Massimo’s son and Jackie being Nick’s wife instead of mother it might have worked out better? 
 

But on the flip side I’ve seen a few people here and other places suggest the upcoming  “big shocking plot twist” is that Ridge is Eric’s bio son after all.

And what became of Diana Marone anyways?

People speculate about a lot of things but none of them are "unheard of" in daytime.
Ridge being Eric's son - besides being pointless if Stephanie is not around to react to it and pointless because the fact he isn't hasn't mattered for story at all for more than a decade - would be well within the bounds of having been done tons of time, even on this very show.

The only speculation I saw that doesn't read as something as having been done before was

but I would be confused where this would be coming from and what they would achieve with it other than

So I don't believe that rumor either.
I'll admit though they got me curious. It'd better be something fun AND actually shocking if they want to live up to their own hype.

 

Yes. I understand why Bell thinks Bridget has run her course but her absence during the current story is a HUGE missed opportunity. Hoping the upcoming cameo gives us a chance of a conversation between Bridget and Hope.
B&B has flaws but it has a fun history it could do a lot to write good dramatic soap scenes with heart for if it tried. I am all for camp but give us some character-building bones from time to time!

      Martin and Smitty's kids not being there seemed like a glaring omission.

      Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.

      I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube.

      Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her

      @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.
