I can’t believe we’re watching two characters in their 30’s doing parent trap.  At least when Lindsay Lohan did it, she was 10.  LOL 

 

I wanted to see that too. And I want to see Ridge talking to Steffy about her taking his phone.  At least have some tension between them.

Bill SR despised Brooke, she showed up at party he had UNINVITED and he dragged her hard!!

Bill hated Brooke for years, used to call her "trash and tramp" and things like that till he was Loganized 

 

 

So again who's pushing a narrative about both Bill's hating Brooke? at least SR had brains to stay hating her

That wasn't Bill Sr's party, that was the Christmas party of 1992 at the Forrester mansion. Bill didn't even really know Brooke so he was basically just relating what he had heard (most likely from Stephanie). There was no personal relationship at all between these two characters. He was just reacting (as everyone else was) to Brooke showing up uninvited to the Forrester party where nobody wanted her to be.

Wouldn't Bill SR original reasons for disliking Brooke revolve around Caroline? Except by 1992, Caroline had died and Brooke helped Caroline during the last months. It seems SR would be grateful - as much as he could be - for Brooke being there for his beloved daughter. The narrative doesn't make a lot of sense based on what actually happened and how rarely SR + Brooke crossed paths.

I never really understood Bills hatred for Hope, Besides the fact he obviously wishes he was with Steffy, and pushed Liam on her only for that reason alone. The story is so contrived anyways, but really I can’t help but think if this were an NBC soap, Steffy would be the conniving bitch who would face the wrath of the equally conniving and protective in-law who would want them no one near their son (like Kate with Sami or Ivy with Theresa)

From what I recall, he didn't necessarily dislike Brooke. He would throw out some jabs about her because of her past scandals. One thing that he said which didn't make much sense, is that he thought Hope was wrong for Liam because she brought "drama" everyone with her, like her mother....Then like 6 months later is when "Brill" began.

I think when Hope was with Wyatt, Bill warmed up to her,  yet when it comes to her and Liam, he constantly backtracks from thinking "they belong together", to him saying "Steffy made you a better man son" 

sigh...I swear this show....This plot convoluted hot mess of a show....

It seemed like Bill liked Steffy more than Hope because he was sexually attracted to her, and did in fact sleep with her... which you would think would make her an unsuitable wife to Liam considering she cheated on Liam with him.

 It makes zero sense.

I've never understood why it seemed like she was rewarded for her slutty behavior, while constantly allowed to bash Brooke and the Logans....I feel like she was probably Stephanie and Taylor's revenge against Brooke, because they both should have shamed her for her actions....I mean for gods sake didn't she try to seduce Oliver when Hope and her family were attending Beth's (Sr's) funeral?

    • Who is Ken Howard? I think you mean Howard Keel.
    • Hehe. Wrong thread.

        Overall, I would agree. However, it has been interesting while I'm waiting for something to happen to see her experimenting with finding characters' individual styles. I feel she's slowly getting it. But yes, it has been hit and miss.    Like when she tries to give a particular style to one person and think it will work for someone else. Like she's lightened up Nick's style which was...different. Almost like she was listening to JM's own style, but keeping it within Nick's bandwagon. Then she tried a similar style on Billy and it just didn't work.
    • It's been pretty well-known since that that BBG was offered a similar deal as Ken Howard (ie 4-6 episodes) and she told them to fudge off. With Jane Wyman, I don't doubt they were willing not to hold her to her contract, but in those early episodes where she appears, she's written sitting down or in a bed for a reason. Her health genuinely seemed in decline.
    • Agree, but I am talking more about the initial casting. Melissa might have only lasted a season if Ana Alicia hadn't impressed.
    • I'm not that impressed with the costuming, still very hit and miss,not much improvement and some of the outfits for Nikki in particular have been awful. Maybe Mariah's secret is she encountered Ian and killed him? That might work except for the fact that her mother has done the same thing.
    • Ana Alicia was far more dynamic and charismatic than McGeehan or Vernon though. Some of it due to the writing of course, but not all of it.
    • It actually felt like TM-G was a bit softer in her scenes with nu-Ted that kind of matched his meeker energy as Ted on Friday. I was very curious how she’d play off him and now I have my answer.
    • My thoughts exactly! Fantastic find @DRW50!  
    • That was interesting; thanks. Courtney looks tired and/or bored AF, LOL!
    • 5-12   Lord have mercy.   I'm not sure how I feel about it. Perhaps what I said last week or the week before last. If the highlight of a soap is what people are wearing and not the writing, that's not a good thing. And that was how I was feeling watching this. There was not anyone that I was interested in seeing in the episode outside of Daniel and Sally tbh. Because Daniel continues to be the only thing that humanizes Phyllis for me.    I could care less for the Billy/Sally scenes where he's woe is me. I could care less about Kyle/Claire since the writers took all the drama right out of the pairing. Humanized or not, I could care less for Giggly Heffa.    I barely care for Teriah. But for me, it's nice to see something going on with them. Though it seems so horribly contrived.    I liked the costume designer appears to be trying to find individual styles for some of the characters. For me, Tessa's with the boots stood out given her indie musician history. It seems like Claire's style is coming into its own with block colors. I like Kyle's wardrobe is loosening up somewhat. I even loved the striped dress that Phyllis had on.    But again...where is the writing?
