Damn Loser is an expert gas lighter, Steffy rejected his loser ass so he gas light's Hope to keep his options open

I knew Thomas would get hurt in all of this, tis why I wanted him away from Hope cause Liam/Hope are Bell's Brooke/Ridge next generation and Thomas will be collateral damage 

Hey Ridge STHU YOU and DUMBASS Bill are the reason why Sheila is free to begin with

Liam is such a loser…

With B&B downtrending in ratings and a coupled along with a recent complete ratings collapse in Australia you have to wonder if Thudley and Minnis actually care about this show anymore or just waiting to be cancelled by CBS next year.

I have people who repeatedly tell me he doesn't care about ratings cause he doesn't need the $$
I can't imagine at all that CBS is happy with these ratings, losing over 400K since a year ago

No "thus far" Finn isn't the cheating or man whore type, but keep trying

Though 10 is bumping it from its timeslot for the return of Neighbours to an earlier slot. They have also been screwing around with its repeat airings in the mornings in the last year.

@boldau do you have the figures from last year to compare? Still the ratings seem decent and I'm sure 10 has bigger issues to worry about like how their primetime is a mess and how the network is consistently fourth in the ratings.

Yes, correct. 10 envisage that Neighbours *could* be a good lead-in to the 5pm news, however time will tell. In saying that, Bold before Neighbours may give it a solid prop - a decent soap hour!

However, there has been some noise over the move which takes effect 18 September, which will likely increase once people realise the change has happened. Bold has been a great lead-in to 10’s 5pm news since February 1996 (when Bold moved from 1pm to 4.30pm). Bold’s new 4pm timeslot may fail given that Fridays episode will air at 4.30pm. Neighbours will not air on Friday’s (worldwide output will be Mon-Thurs only). The inconsist timeslot may damage Bolds brand on 10. More info here if you wish to read.

10 shuffled their mornings in January this year (to shorten Studio 10 which was failing). The Bold replay moved from 7.30am to 9.30am. Bold gets more eyeballs at 9.30am - mums/dads have done school drop off, Today show etc. has finished.

Thank you for clarifying @boldau and @Slutty Shauna Fan the Australia situation. It appears I was misled in one of the FB groups I’m in that people in Australia had abandoned the show in droves. Maybe they meant people were just disappointed by recent stories idk. 
 

It’s hard not to watch a total train wreck sometimes lol.

This show is so embarrassing.

Just imagine everyone in town has nothing to do but talk about relationships -- OTHER people's relationships -- and who should be with whom.

Just imagine someone like sl_ut Brooke Logan (of all people) dispensing relationship and marriage advice to her daughter or to ANYONE. Ditto who_re Ridge.

Just imagine a simp of a woman like Hope who screws Thomas with mad lust one day and the next says "Oops."

The truth is, even if we remove Liam from this show, it's still GARBAGE.

    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
    • A few years ago, Devon and Nick started a charity organization together, I think it's for housing in the community.
