Maybe I’m just tired of everytime I hear Steffy whine about “we must take back from the Logan’s”  blah blah blah….but this is when I wish the REAL Forresters (IA) Thorne, Kristen and Felicia’s would come back and take their claim on the company while pushing out the Marone crew..

It’s a horrible retcon, Ridge being Massimos son, but I’m more annoyed how hypocritical they write Steffy and Taylor namely because they’ve made the same amount of mistakes Brooke has over the years, and Steffy has definitely wronged Hope many times, while constantly acting like she was the victim of Hopes “wrong doings” 

at the end of the day this is Brad Bell who barely knows his own history anyway so you gotta take it like a grain of salt…unfortunately

Oh, Bridget. Yeah, well that never went anywhere fast! Forget the sister part, he was more like a father to her How that ever got past the concept stage is mindblowing.

Reconnecting the Ridge, Thomas, Steffy line to Eric, Rick and Bridget just make sense. The story could actually be a good one. I bet the overwhelming majority of viewers would approve. Bonus: it restores Stephanie dignity. The Stephanie 'passing' off a child as another man's concept was illogical.

Oh sh!t.  I tried to zoom in on the card, think someone wrote 'enjoy the next chapter' 'you will be so missed'...

Although someone replied: Aww sorry for your loss,

I would love to see it. 

 

Oh, the drama...

lol.

 

I had always wanted to see Steffy with Carter...but they have done such a good job with Steffy and Finn over the last year...I cannot help, but like them. They are so good together. And as a writer, they have so much build in drama they can mind. Right now, there's the tension with Li that's growing, there's the spectre of Sheila of course, and I'm sure if I try I could think of more.

So, Ridge finally tells Brooke that he and Taylor shared a romantic kiss in Monte Carlo. Frankly, I don't see what's so great about Ridge, but these two women love him apparently. He doesn't seem to be a good social support system for Brooke, especially when she was going through all that switch-er-roo champagne drama a while back courtesy of Shelia Carter. Ridge is like this killer mammal species who's trapped at the shore of a bay who just flaps its flukes from side to side. On one side is Taylor while the other side is Brooke.

It's time for Brooke and Taylor to both tell Ridge: "To the left." He's not worth a hill of beans.

This is so typical B&B. The show is watchable, even interesting for a little while, and then, in the space of just a few episodes (sometimes even less) it becomes an unwatchable mess....

Brad Bell is so creatively exhausted it's ridiculous. There were opportunities readily available for something new on the show, but he just goes back to the endless Brooke/Ridge/Taylor mess (and everything that goes with it) that was old 25 years ago.

    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.

    • I started a separate thread for the same tribute, but of course it can be discussed wherever. doesn't matter where. Fyi  Jason Cook, Staci Greason, and Eileen Davidson will be there as well as Reckell and some of the current cast Thread for Live tribute to Drake https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/68987-days-currentformer-actors-live-video-tribute-for-drake-hogestyn
    • Seeing Nicole and Martin together reminds me of watching Alice with Mickey Horton in the 90s and 00s. The seem more like peers than mother and son.  The younger half of the cast (35ish and below) is playing younger, and the older half (35+) is playing older.
