Sigh.

Really, Sheila???

 

But...I didn't see Taylor and Sheila bonding over death coming. 

 

And Brooke! I had wondered when she would show up during all of this.

 

I do like that the suspense has been building throughout.

 

Still hoping for a fakeout. Perhaps Bridget knows something we don't.

Kimberlin Brown is a terrible crier. Jesus, she’s bad.

[FrenchBug82]

She is good at playing crazy, angry, evil. Not compassion and sadness.

Insert joke about her politics here.

[Maxim]

Its just not working. This has been Sheila's worst return ever. There is just no point in this anymore after Finn's dead. 

 

[Faulkner]

Honestly, the whole show is so disastrous that I barely notice whatever Kimberlin is doing now. Sheila has long overstayed her welcome.

[AbcNbc247]

Considering that I was way more interested in Quinn and Carter yesterday, I'm inclined to agree that there's no point to Sheila anymore now that Finn is dead. Once it comes out that she pulled the trigger, there's nothing more they could do for her.

[Faulkner]

All of this just to replay this tired triangle.

I still think the better story would've been Steffy partnering with Sheila to crush Brooke in order to 'guarantee' Taylor's happiness with Ridge - like pushing Deacon to reunite with Brooke, etc. Yeah, it's way too logical  and there real motivation - Steffy wants her parents back together and Sheila actually cares about Taylor.

When JMW returned, they could've revealed it, which would've had some real drama that would involve most of the canvas - Finn, Hope, Eric, Quinn, Thomas, Liam, etc. At that point, would Ridge have fallen completely back in love with Taylor? Maybe Brooke's feelings for Deacon got deeper, but Sheila actually wants Deacon, etc.

[Planet Soap]

Not. This. Again. One dozen years of wash, rinse, repeat.

Is Hope that naive? The woman that smashed your husband just last year isn't a threat to your marriage?

SHUT UP, RIDGE!!!

Well, I like that the writers remember that Sheila is a nurse, but surprised they are going the 'Steffy woke up and Steffy has amnesia' route with JMS going on ML. Or is this what she will do...be in bed until that is over.

 

I did like that Thomas had enough brain to ask Sheila point blank if she shot Steffy.

 

So first Brooke pops up after being MIA for a week. And now we have Paris and Zende (nice braids, Paris!

I thought it was a good week. Way to keep the momentum going. Or if not the momentum, just the suspence. So...well done. Though I don't know where Sheila can even go from here. At least, the writers are trying something with her and Taylor bonding over death. But...that is just stalling. So...what's next?

 

 

 

 

[Maxim]

The show is so so bad, that I wouldnt be surprised if in couple of months Brooke is sleeping with Carter and gets pregnant.

[Ponds]

Too old to get pregnant....at least in real life!

[FrenchBug82]

She is 60! I can't believe KKL is 60. 

[Gray Bunny]

 

I'm down with that. LOL 

Randomly picking up Carter/Quinn and Carter/Paris/Zende after weeks on the backburner is so.... Days of Our Lives (Ron Carlivati's version). But they definitely need to beef up their "B" stories so I give them credit for that. The Carter/Quinn tale is where they need to go.  

They've thrown their plate of spaghetti known as Paris at so many walls hoping something will stick, and it's just not. Carter, Zende, Finn, Thomas. Next, they'll bring back Maya and give them a chem test. 

Side note: So Bridget has been in L.A. this whole time, they just don't show her? And now she pops up in the hospital as a glorified dayplayer. Wow.
