Brooke and her LOVES??? Her only only... toxic... but love was queen Stephanie. This was the moment to bring back Susan Flannery for one episode... Her giving Brooke advice and telling her to fight for Ridge... Maybe even slapping her one last time... Only in dreams... But we saw these clownish 5 men... It looked perverse... at one point she was like... Ooooh so sweet... Thank you for filling my time.... but I really... want Ridge. Laughable.

The show has aged so bad. It needs plastic surgery and dementia medication.

I'm watching it again. I think because I stopped it on the credits it still appears for me but when i look at B&B main episodes page it's gone.

I agree and your idea would've been better.

My idea was the anniversary was about Forrester Creations and not Brooke. It would featured Eric happy yet sad without Stephanie with him. He and Brooke look back at all the people that came into their lives over the 35 years.

I was able to watch it on YouTube TV and I must say that even though he may have a few screws loose it was good to see Harmon as Thorne in the flesh again, the scenes with him and KKL felt very warm and at this point I wouldn’t mind having Harmon back as Thorne.

However the scenes with Nick complete with a Jack Wagner song playing over the montage were downright EMBARRASSING…..

Eric’s comment about 35 years made me think of the show existing on a sliding time scale like comic books do lol. In retrospect perhaps B&B should have never SOARSed the kids

Haha yeah WH is, but his real downfall was his public intoxication arrests, urinating in public, and I think something else in 2016? Oh and Thudley thought he was boring.

Harmon did give a nice interview with SOC a couple days ago:

Ho yes the Nick scenes we’re cringeworthy but hey with it being the 35th anniversary I suppose it was to honor the very cringeworthy years of 2006-2010? Because that montage straight out of the period.

Lol. Wagner and KKL was definitely a far cry from the warm & fuzzy nostalgic moment that WH and KKL had. And Brooke told Nick that she likes to read how famous he’s become….really??

Personally I would have cut the Nick & Bill scenes in favor of someone at the show convincing Flannery to appear for a single episode unless

I will go to my grave arguing that while I get Brooke/Ridge as the end game, Thorne was the best pairing Brooke had.
Spending two years making me root for them only to break them up in a week because of an off-hand comment Brooke made is still one of my bitterest soap moments ever.

Speaking of Trump, Nick and his haircut kinda resembled The Donald, at least from the back.

Deacon, Whip, and Grant should have been included. Not necessarily as loves bus as some of her men, like GH did for Brenda upon her return.

    • The thought has crossed my mind. Tricia Mann-Grant did say in her EW interview w/ MVJ and DD, that Leslie wants to be a Dupree just as bad as she wants Eva to be. I believe now that's the direction they are going in, that maybe she is just obsessed with the family. I could be wrong though.
    • True. But I have always had mixed feelings about that twist. Since I love the Damian storyline which already had twists and turns. Also I could not wait for a new powerful AND BLACK businessman to mix it up at some point with Victor. It just seem like another twist that was added on for twist sake. And also for a character (whether I love him or not) to hijack a new and refreshing storyline so they can be propped.    Once good thing that I can say about JG is that he loves to keep the Abbotts in rotation. So I could see that happening with Diane. I don't think she has mentioned her backstory, either. I would be intrigued. 
    • That's how I feel. Beats could have been played for the past couple months wherein Dante and Gio interacted and had a difference of opinion -- or something. I don't know. I do know that this crushing rant that blames everything on Gio is absurd. -- Reading over all the comments here about characters and couples, it's kind of amazing that we have any show left considering the number of times actors and writers and execs were given influence to make major character and story decisions. Too many cooks in the kitchen.
    • Lol. But Jeffrey was weak to mama. Leslie can go dead because anger is a great motivator via Martin defending HIS mama and just not taking ish altogether. This ain't how it should be. They need not run the show like this. It's too noticeable. The way Eva said mama reminded me of Penny from Good Times. Instead of physical abuse it's mental abuse.
    • Oh, I see! You posted this on the general retro soap thread because of the voiceover.
    • Yeah, I agree. It's part of the reason I have shade picked on Martin's Secret being so on the backburner that it was about to fall off of it. With Dani/Bill/Hayley being the main tale to start us off and backburned and the SilkPress storyline being well paced, but not set to explode until May, Martin's Secret was the other main storyline that could have been developed. And after giving it a nice slow burn to start off, the story upped and vanished in Month 2. That left the show having to rely on mostly B/C stories to stay afloat to various degrees of success. 
    • I loved those scenes, lol. I thought I was watching a stage play. But I do hear what you're saying.
    • Jason47's episode summaries clarify everything. https://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1990-1999-t14806-s150.html The construction company is "AJ Construction" (AJ = Adrienne+Justin).   Jencon Oil was building an oil refinery at the construction site.  This was adjacent to the park. Kirk Geiger played the character Chad Webster. The character Chad was an actor in the movie being made.   The child friend with Shawn-Douglas is his cousin Andrew Donovan. A few episodes prior, Andrew and Shawn-Douglas were at the park playing hide-and-seek. They wandered off where they shouldn't have gone, by slipping through the gate onto the construction site.  Shawn-D fell into the hole at the oil refinery. There were several episodes of trying to rescue Shawn-D.  Finally Carly rescued Shawn-D, but he was discovered to be deaf.  Andrew felt bad, but Bo and Shane both understood that it was an accident.  Carly later taught Shawn-D sign language. Shawn-D was played by Scott Groff. Andrew was played by Bradley Michael Pierce. pics here: https://web.archive.org/web/20070404163013/http://www.childrenofsalem.com/days/kids/shawnandrew/shawnandrew.html Larger context here: https://web.archive.org/web/20080614054207/http://www.bethsdayspage.com/days/riverfrontraider.htmlhttps://web.archive.org/web/20080614054207/http://www.bethsdayspage.com/days/riverfrontraider.html
    • I had a situation last week where I could watch the new episode on Paramount Plus on my laptop, but it wasn't even listed on my TV as an option.
