From the “actors” to the “models” in the opening titles, I appreciate that a show with “Beautiful” in its name challenges our collective sense of beauty in terms of physical perfection. To be a millionaire in the fashion industry living in Los Angeles, your appearance is arguably irrelevant, you are among “the beautiful people”. Once upon a time, to be toilet white was a sign of upper class, evident of your life station that never required you to venture out of doors. Then tans were in as folx of means like Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel would holiday on Caribbean sands and tan. I look at the cast of B&B, often in typically soapy extreme closeup, and see beautiful bone structure coupled with sun damage. It’s a very L.A. thing.

HAHAHAHA!!!! LOOK AT YOU'LL IN HERE TALKING ABOUT WHAT WE DO IN THE HOT THREAD!!!! Personally for me, I find most (not all) of the men attractive. TN (butt or not) and LSW are givens. And MA has really and truly been looking like a snack for weeks now...onion in the back and all. 

 

I love how you worded that. 

 

10-18

 

Wait! What!!!

 

Thomas and Hope kissed...and it WASN'T a fantasy??? I was shocked...and she STARTED it. Well...she's going to look like a fool for doing that. And I won't feel sad for her.

 

So they finally circled back around to Carter/Katie? Well...I've been wanting Carter vs DBill for shady reasons but I'll be down for that. Or dare I say it...Bill/Li/Katie/Carter? 

 

Yep. Still not feeling sorry for Brooke and laughed at her reaching for the bottle. Now...would she really go there with Liam though???

I agree. The women in the triangle were gorgeous! It's too bad that they were fighting over a booby prize in Liam. 

I think Kim really got tired of the ridiculous waffling of the Liam story and that's why she left. As much as I miss her in the role....I'm glad she left. She was being wasted on B&B.

Yeah it was obvious what Kim wanted. I'm sure she bolted because of it.

Yes, what woman or gay man wants a guy who doesn't know what he wants? Who wants to play with both?

Liam has always been a booby prize.

    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
    • French fan summary Rusty took over Simon's job at Lewis Trucking after Simon transferred to Lewis Oil's North Carolina office to live near Jessie and Calla. I doubt they would bother following up a story for offscreen characters eg marriage and a baby.
    • I suspected that the performance with the reveal was the reason why the Ted actor got the axe and it looks like I was right. He wasn't really good at conveying what needed to be conveyed in those scenes. Claybon is at least slowly improving (but I agree that he still needs to work on his line delivery), but I do wonder what will happen when his big reveal is coming up. 
    • I've already asked this before, recently, but can anyone who watched those years more closely tell me if anything said about Jessie and Simon at the end of their profiles is accurate (about them marrying, naming a baby after Brandon/Lujack, etc.)?
    • Nicole is way too smart to not know she was carrying twins - she's a doctor! My guess is that Leslie did abort her baby out of fear, and as payback, stole Ted and Nicole's child (Eva), and stole Kat from another family to replace her in the hospital.
    • Those Soap Central profiles have a lot of incorrect info. According to SOD summaries and the Daytime Newsletter of the time,Tim left town for a new job and Pam reunited with the father of her baby and also departed Springfield.They did not marry.
