Yeah they did.  I just think Stefan's previous history made it a bad move from the start and you really can't come back from that.  Unless you're Ben lol.  I think Ron screwed up Stefan from the jump, but I don't think he actually screwed them up as a couple.  I cut some slack due to TC's personal issues as well.

I mean, ideally they should've known this move would happen when they got renewed for 2 years - personally, I would've liked to see most storylines tied up and then a(nother) time jump leading into a soft reboot on Peacock. But alas, NBC did make this decision at the very last minute so we can't get nice things.

I am sooooo tired of Kristen. She's not a fun villain anymore. She's just annoying and pathetic. 

I also don't get why they keep bringing Orpheus back for these lame kidnappings every year.

I absolutely hate creepy Alex and his Stephanie obsession. The only good thing about him is that he gives ZT/Sonny more airtime. I do like the new Stephanie but unfortunately she's stuck in Alex hell. 

The Sloan actress is horrendous. I'm assuming they're testing her with Rafe since Racole aren't for long. I'm loving Ericole longing for each other. Sorry Jada! 

I'm curious about Ava/Johnny just because it's so random. I wouldn't mind if EJ banged her either LOL. My boy needs something to do besides whine about DiMera Enterprises. 

I'm all signed up for Peacock Premium

Kristen is absolutely a character that could just pop up when Eileen wants to appear.  I have always questioned the decision to keep her full time and to give her a child with Brady. 

Orpheus clearly just fills the void Stefano left and kidnaps Marlena yearly.  If production was better and Orpheus was more adept I would appreciate him more.  I really thought Orpheus was a good, scary villian in the 80's.

I like the new Stephanie.  I really agree about Alex.  It's weird they are boxing RSW in with a newbie and hoping it works out.  He can interact with a lot of other characters and so can she.

I like that Jada has a strong personality and feels like she's getting decent development, but I find her personality pretty grating.   I think the actress is good and I will wait and see I guess. 

Sloan is whatever.  It's clear she's going toward Rafe and I don't care about him, so I won't care about her lol.

I like Ava/Johnny as well.

You & me, too! Stacy is not doing it for me. And, Kristen just has nothing about her character that would cause her to be manic!

I love Jada. I have no problems with her but I know some do. Love Stephanie. Cannot abide Alex.

I can't stand Sloan. However, Rafe is more interesting when he is hollering at her than any other time, so, there's that.

I have never liked Orpheus. I have never liked Johnny. But, Ava does make him more tolerable, so, there's that. It's like these guys are "character conditioners". LOL

 

And, @AlexElizabeth I agree with everything you said.

I loved Kristen and I do think Stacy gives it her all, but Kristen should have bigger fish to fry than Chloe Lane and trying to reunite with her (almost) former stepson.  The idea of Kristen/Brady (with Eileen) was great, but making them a weird lovestory doesn't work.

Jada is okay.  I don't think she's a bad character, but I personally don't like her at this point.  It could change.  

Yeah, I literally think the new Stephanie is a great find.  I am excited to see what she does (outside of Alex).

Orpheus was so scary to me as a kid.  He wasn't campy like Stefano back then.  He was just straight up psycho and deranged.  These days none of his plans make any sense and always fail.  The scary thing about Orpheus back in 86 is that his plan worked.  Marlena 'died' for semi-real-for 5 years.

Carson Boatman just isn't a very good actor.  I don't think Johnny is a bad character really and hopefully CB gets better.  I do think he's cute and charming.

Kristen is horrible. I hate the actress in the role. She sucks here and she did on YR.

Stephanie in Alex hell is a great way to put it! I couldn't agree more!!

If I wasn't signed up already Billy would've convinced me too.

No he's not!

Tomato tomatoe....all the same ...would've loved to see Chandler promote it that way too!!

      B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles

      By Soaplovers · Posted

      Beth #1 being recast right before she and Eric come face to face was jarring.  We spent the first 50 episodes or so getting to know Beth and see her rapport with her kids, co worker, and even her mother in law. Her Beth seemed content with her kids and job as caterer, but you could tell she also had a faraway look that you just knew meant that she dreamed of what life would have been like had she and Eric gotten together.   Plus, she came across as someone that you could see eventually moving into more wealthy circles based on her demeanor.   Seeing Beth always looking off into space probably helped fuel Brooke's dreams of wealth because she saw how unfulfilled her mother was.  Once Beth was recast starting in episode 52, that whole vibe completely changed and Beth #2 seemed to almost like living the middle class life.. and that her Beth would feel ill at ease around wealth, etc.

      I agree.  I've always chalked it up to the fact that DALLAS had been a pop culture phenomenon for many years and that viewers, including viewers who'd stop watching years before, were tuning in one last time to say goodbye. Also agree that it was interesting to see KL finish 27th for the week.  Any show doing that well after 12 seasons is a miracle, lol.

      I don't know anything BTS, but your theory seems reasonable.

      In comparison to Maurice Johnson, sure, but he's still... stiff AF. "Leaps and bounds" is a strong exaggeration as well. Watching him is like watching paint dry. I'd recast him next, ASAP.

      Yes! Andre easily could have just been a hunk with no real depth (like Derek) but his character is rounding out very nicely.

      They're contract; anyone in the opening is a contract player.

      I was watching an episode last night and noticed that Pictionary is taped in Atlanta. It's just a walk for Chandler to the studios.

      Emmerdale: Discussion Thread

      By AMCOLTLLover · Posted

      my vote goes to Eden (Belle)! She single handed carried that show on her back !! Best family will probably be The Dingles! I have to say 2024-2025 was a mixed bag on all of them soaps ! But if I had to say which one would be the best I would give it to Emmerdale for Belle/Tom’s storyarc. It went on for too long but at least was written properly compared to others. But I do think Corrie will win best soap for Mason’s storyline  Best storyline… I wish it would be Belle and tom but the abuse story from Hollyoaks will take that 100%

      I have to push back on this. I just don't believe it. I don't believe MVJ or anyone at BTG operates that way -- seeing a performance in reveal scenes and saying "That actor has to go." If that's the case, why aren't they doing that with other actors? We all know Maurice Johnson is FAR from the weakest actor on this soap. My feeling is that Keith Robinson became available and that someone from BTG wanted him badly from the beginning. I think this recasting was all about Robinson and not about Johnson at all. Yep, and anyone who can't see that isn't paying attention. Calling Brandon Claybon the worst actor on the show is laughable. Tomas, Ashley, and Derek might be recurring, but they're also key characters, so leaving them out of this actor discussion doesn't work. They get plenty of screen time and are on contract. The only way your narrative works about BC being the worst on the show is to ignore the rest of the cast.
