How many times will Bradley Bell subject us to the hellish nightmare of reliving BRIDGE aka FAKE BRIDGE. Since this is not even Ridge and nobody cares for this couple after 2013. Give that beautiful woman KKL some young bone to chew on.

Is anyone else COMPLETELY unaffected by the thought of Eric dying?

I mean, just DIE ALREADY. I don't care about his coughing blood, I don't care about his designs, I don't care about his legacy. I don't care about Eric, period.

BOLD is trying so hard to make this a Shakespearean tragedy, and it is not working.

@ranger1rg 100%. Honestly, Eric is the least likeable major B&B character. People trash Brooke for 'following her heart', but Eric is far worse. The way he's treated his wives/lovers over the years is appalling. Case in point: he's *dying* and allegedly loves Donna so why wouldn't he want to get married? 

Eric always has been a selfish, cold, childish and judgmental character.

I have no idea why the writers chose to make him so vapid. Maybe it started as a way to show that Stephanie was the real brains behind FC? Obviously, she was!

Honestly? What should have happened is when Ronn Moss left in 2012, that should have opened the door to begin paving the way for the next generation of Forrester / Logan, ie: Hope, Rick, Steffy, Thomas et al. to begin taking the reigns and becoming the new creative driving force in the fashion house ⏤ almost returning to the series' beginnings. And then, with Jacqueline MacInnes Wood's 2013 and 2015 return (with 2014 visits), that also could have opened doors for the next generation to drive force in business-focused stories. Instead, it was toyed and then Ridge returned, and the same s**t was spat out. Hell, even Thorne's return could have provided something worth while. But no... it did not happen.

I think Eric dying had potential.  But he has been "dying" for months now.  This type of story should not be dragged out, cause it starts to lose its effect.  In contrast on Y&R (for those that watch Y&R) the Jordan story is a bit too fast-paced.  It's like I want to put the brakes on Y&R, and jump start B&B.  It can be very mind-boggling!

I agree with all of that.

With Eric, you cannot have 2000 discussions about his legacy and expect viewers to care. Trotting the Logan sisters into the room to look at him cough is an eye-roller, especially since we don't hear about his own kids.

And that "legacy" included a final fashion show with gowns that looked like off-the-rack purchases from Kohls.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Aback · Posted

      I totally understand your sloths concern about it and I agree with you. Let’s hope the show plays it’s cards right.    Further comments about the last few episodes: - I liked that one of the attendees was filming the scene. That’s realistic. I wonder if the writers will follow up with that.  - Martin and Smitty trying to drag Leslie out was very heteronormative, so perfectly in line with them two as characters lol.    As for the future: it’s obvious the Duprees will come to accept Eva one way or another, but the rivalry with Kay should be here for the long term   On the topic of acting: the only bad actors I’m seeing are Ted and Derek. Tomas hasn’t proven to be either good or bad, so far, but he’s certainly mediocre and uncharismatic. He sucks the energy out of the scenes and I don’t see any couple of women ever vying for him.

      I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.

      Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much.

        Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year.

      Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go.

      The Madonna Thread

      By Maxim · Posted

      Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.

      Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.
