B&B: April 2024 Discussion Thread

Would you please listen to yourself? I hate to belabor this, but I think it's a serious charge to call someone a bully -- especially when you provide no proof.

No one can dictate what you think. No one forces you to agree with anyone's opinion here, including Althea's. And "bullying tactics"? I don't even know what that means.

What you have a problem with is Althea's tone. I realize that because I've been criticized for my tone in the past. You don't have to like it, but it's not bullying.

The rapist storyline is making me gag. I have to fast-forward everything. What I can't manage to fast-forward is shocking. So the rapist has finally gaslit Luna and they are playing it off like a love triangle now? She says she is torn between two great men? Sweety, you need to read more about rape and consent and you NEED help. You were RAPED. This is so triggering and such a disgusting storyline which should not be allowed by the public in 2024. Bradley needs to get some backlash for this. This is not the 70s or 80s, baby boy.

Ridge and Steffy Marone talking about Steffy stabbing Sheila with smirk on their faces like they are talking about home cooked lasagna was LOL. Ridge is insufferable sociopath and Steffy is OG Stephanie from the dollar store. I get that Sheila was a psycho, but WHO smirks like that... and them acting like HOW DARE Finn has any other feelings on the matter is making me re-live my relationship with my narcissistic mother. Steffy Marone will be better off with a male sex doll, replica of Finn, just like her brother was with the Hope doll. Her narcissism doesn't allow her to see anything but her POV. These people don't understand boundaries and people saying No to them. Clinical narcissism. 

And the Sheila storyline is done in the most predictable way possible. I can clearly see they are feeling the backlash and trying to rush it along.

@Soapsuds @Jeff @ranger1rg - RJ's arms in the episodes are the only thing that kept me from not pressing the X button.

I just saw the 'Sugar' confirmation.

I suppose the *rationale* is that Sugar was trying to frame Sheila. I won't even speculate 'why'

Gosh, if I were writing this show in say 2004, I'd have Luna confront Zende with him taking advantage of her. If she chooses not to take legal action, make it a conscious choice. There's many valid reasons why someone chooses not to report. She should never apologize to RJ.

It would've been better if they both Zende and Luna consuming the mints together, which would remove the consent issue. The story is exactly the same, but Zende is forever tainted until he undergoes 3 weeks of therapy and is fine.

I am. And it's bizarre how a man like Zende who looks so much more mature and older than Luna, is so interested in this... Practically little girl. It looks off and perverted. Add the rape and I'm out.

But that's the whole show... The Off and The Perverted.

That said...it did feel like a Lucky Gold episode when it took all episode for Deacon to spit it out why he was reacting to the clerk. And now he's going to talk to Finn. If anything, it made me feel that he was going too slow knowing that Sheila was on the loose.


Cute Finn/Hope scene, but NO. LOL!!!

 

Mmmmm Hollis...

The lowdown on today's episode.

Luna finally told RJ about being raped by Zende. Luna blamed the mints and herself. 

Joshua Hofmann can't act. He acted more confused than anything else. 

Zende, the rapist, told Carter what happened. Zende blamed Poppy for raping Luna.  Carter started blaming Zende but then backtracked.

More 10 toes and Sugar. Sugar made an appearance just like the stapler.

    • And, to me it is a little bit hilarious that AW fans all over continue to refer to it as Egyptian Dust Recently elsewhere I've been running polls. When did you stop watching AW or What storyline caused you to stop watching AW. You may be interested to know that sticking it out till the bitter end is winning by a landslide. Next highest vote getter is - no surprise - Frankie's murder. So that covers like 60% & next 20%. Then the votes drop way down to 10% and well below but a wide array of reasons are given, including but not limited to  Justine Lumina Rachel having twins at her age, how ridiculous Mac's death the 90 minute show firing JC, George R & Dwyer Hmm, I know there are a few more, in the 1%-3% range but I cannot think of what they are. Sorry, my bad. Should have made notes but I didn't know I would be posting about it. LOL!!  
    • A kind angel has added both episodes to the vault (UK Diva TV broadcast version). 
    • Yes, I think that is the most likely situation.  TPTB were unhappy with the offer(s) they got from the tourism board in Finland, and decided the trip was going to be too expensive for P&G/NBC to finance alone.   I would also speculate a similar situation likely occurred a few years later with the planned location shoot in Egypt, which was also cancelled after the storyline had already started, and changed to Arizona.

    • In my usual account on my most used video hosting site with the video title  DAYS 1-8-15 Will & Paul Sex This is an edit I began when I was first teaching myself to edit & at that time I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do. I pulled it up & finished it this morning. 
    • Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.
    • Finland seemed such an odd choice for a location shoot. ATWT went to Greece and later Spain while GL had Tenerife and there were others in that timeframe. But Finland not being a known tourist destination or offering the tropical/sunny atmosphere usually associated with location shoots seems off brand. Maybe they were negotiating a deal with a tourist association and it fell through.
    • I was talking about 1986, but the glimpses of 1982 are about the same. 
    • I skimmed some of the 1982 synopses; Steve was planning on an opening an office in Finland, and I think Jim went there as part of the preparation. That probably was a big issue; AW had already gone to San Diego that year, with Rachel/Steve/Mitch. And to upstate NY with Pete and Diana. I wonder if upstate was as expensive lol  AW in 1982 has always fascinated me, because of how messy it was
