B&B February 2023 Discussion Thread

[dragonflies]

Bill took advantage of a distraught woman the way Thomas did. No Steffy didn't take pills or drink, but she was still distraught.

They're both a form of rape IMO. Even if was consensual by Steffy's words, if Steffy was in her right mind and wasn't upset, it would NOT have happened...

As much as I'm liking the Brooke/Taylor friendship, part of me is Steffy. It IS weird that after 30 years they are getting along like BFFs. 

 

And I just hollered at Brooke throwing shade at Taylor for letting her door unlocked because yes SHEILA is on the loose. KKL's performance was hilarious. 

 

These Thomas/Hope scenes are meh.

Watching Friday's bold live, this Jack Forrestal guy says that the show had a bible, and it was like YR's and there was a family named "Chandler" and it was supposed to be set in Chicago 

 

He said they were a month into the design of the show and then suddenly asked to turn the show around and set it in LA

Despite the out-of-the-blue hearing, the Douglas choosing Steffy is a great twist to the whole Thomas/Hope custody drama. Of course, for the next xxx weeks/months, Hope/Thomas will be pleading their case to Steffy with multiple variations of the same dialogue:

Thomas: 'He's my flesh and blood.' 'I'm his father.' 'He's my son.'

Hope: "Liam and I have given Douglas a real home.' 'I'm the only mother he's ever known' 'Stability, stability, stability!'

Then we should also count what lead up to the paternity issue for R.J. as rape. Nick and Brooke had sex after they had seen Ridge fall into a furnace, presumably to his death, when Sheila had kidnapped Ridge and Brooke on their honeymoon. Brooke was clearly not in her right mind at the time.

Not here for Hope going all Veruca Salt on Steffy. If Hope, Liam and Thomas all really cared about Douglas, they wouldn’t be pressuring anybody about this whole situation

Hope is so lame. What a dull whiny character.

I fast forward all the Sheila scenes.

[Planet Soap]

Steffy could just tell Douglas he can't live with her to keep him safe from her mess with Sheila.

I tuned in briefly yesterday and was interested in the Douglas story - but God Hope is so whiny.  How are you going to tell another adult to put the smack down on a kid’s decision when it was - his decision?  Steffy is a far better choice than Thomas. At the very least it would make sense to at least be glad about that.  The Sheila stuff is - who cares? I saw some pining away by Deacon.  Like WTF?  I couldn’t care less about anything Sheila.  The only possible interest (but it’s so obvious) is Brooke/Taylor uniting to destroy her once and for all. But that idea is out the window because B&B has made itself reliant on Sheila and she can never die. So there’s zero interest there.

lol only thing missing is Katie's scar, Maybe she had hers removed like Maxie did on GH lol!

[Soapsuds]

Sheila is nonexistent to me. She should've been written out months ago. It's ridiculous she's still on the show.

[Soapsuds]

Btw it was nice seeing Li yesterday.

[kalbir]

Sheila has been Bradley's "break glass in case of emergency" character for over 20 years now.
