Kimberlin is one of the greats and this clips showcases it. Bill Bell really treasured her character. I would love to see current day Sheila back to the top. Throwback to when Bold was really Bold, it had class and elegance. And budget.

I just wish they’d utilize her better by bringing on any of the following:

Lauren 

Scotty

Mary

Diana

Ryder

Daisy

Lucy 

James

Maggie

Personally I think she has more story potential on Y&R (unless Bold starts utilizing her history with Eric) but I will watch either show.

She’s a vet. Of course she should be controlling story. But again, I also think she’d have more opportunities at Y&R. They desperately need Sheila, their most iconic villainess of all time, back in Genoa City stirring the pot. 
 

I don’t like Finn or Steffy so for me this story is just a waste of Kimberlin’s talents.

Lol at people thinking Sheila shouldnt control story. All she did is control story and if you think otherwise you are storyline-blind. 

1. Sheila stole Laurens baby - controlled YEARS of storyline

2. Sheila changed Brookes paternity tests - triggered YEARS of storyline

3. Sheila deleted the BELIEF formula 

4. Sheila poisoned Stephanie for months - again months of story

5. Sheila manipulated Brooke into drinking wine... leading to months of story.

Just 5 examples. The bias is laugh-inducing. As much as you hate KB, you cannot deny what Sheila is.  People telling that the sky is red here. LOL.

Sheila is iconic. I’m gay and KB’s views don’t bother me because they don’t impact her ability to play the part. 
We’ve also entered an age of hardcore shipping like we’ve never seen before. In the 90s I would have excitedly welcomed a character like Sheila to come in and generate story for my couple.

Sheila is a villain. Villains should never control story on any soap.  They can do shortterm arcs and that's it.  Nobody will ever convince me otherwise.

Also I have loathed every story arc Sheila ever had, even the short ones. 
I hated everything with Lauren also.

I won't watch any episode she's in.   Nothing to do with the actress.
The character is disgusting to me.

I just loathe the character.
Not love to hate.
Just loathe.

    • Yes, of course, all of those servants added to the overall picture at AW & also people had relationships with those servants! I like it when Anita asks after one of the servants at the club, how their children are doing & like that. 
    • Great scenes between Marlena and EJ today. Paula and Jeanne are making EJ have more depth than Ron had during his long drawn out tenure.
    • Might as well say it, Minority opinion, granted, but I like Joss & I'm okay with this WSB story & i hope that Emma will be their next recruit & she & Joss can be partners.
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven  The Arlene/Ben/Betsy triangle is one I wish I could see for myself as on paper it doesn't tend to excite me but I can see how well-constructed it was. I wish I could see the Rick/Meg relationship too, although I wish they'd had him genuinely fall for Meg after he gets together with Cal. The whole Brooke/Deacon/Bridget story on B&B was horribly damaging to Brooke as a character but it was dramatically very sound because I could completely believe Deacon would fall for messy and vulnerable Brooke after finally settling down with the more docile Bridget.

    • According to the head writer list, it seems the show may have started to fall apart while either the Schneiders or Upton were writing.  And when it started to crumble, it crumbled fast.  It was sad to see everything Labine had brought to LOL be disassembled.

      Welcome back!!! And I see Abe and Paulina got a new apartment too, which is just a redress of John/Marlena’s, Steve/Kayla’s, etc. But it looks kinda nice. And I enjoyed his scenes with Chanel. It added another perspective to everything that’s been going on with her and Johnny. And Abe using his own history with Lexie to comfort Chanel was a good idea. Plus, it also provided us with more suspicion/red herring about Johnny possibly shooting EJ. I’m looking forward to see what happens between her and Johnny. And I’m so glad that the two of them are on the frontburner now.  Speaking of Johnny, I still have no problem with him going to work for Titan. The drama could be so good, especially once EJ finds out. To me, it seems like another realistic reaction to everything that’s been happening to Johnny lately. It doesn’t seem random and over the top either. And I like that they remembered to have Johnny tell Xander that he has no corporate experience whatsoever. Surprisingly, the two of them work well together. And so do Carson and Deidre. I love how the Marlena/Johnny relationship has been featured so much.  Kayla was still strong and kicking ass today too. The writer change has helped her/Mary Beth so much. But I do admit we should’ve seen Steve trying to get into Dr. Russell’s lab rather than Kayla instructing him over the phone.  And unfortunately, Chad and Cat still don’t seem to be doing much for me though. The cliffhanger was ok too.   Btw, Days was trending at #4 this morning on Peacock
