At this speed of character assassination aka making Hope a senseless wannabe-raging whore... how long till she and Pseudo-King Ridge are caught in a compromising position? It's meant to happen. Bradley's sick modus operandi always repeats itself.

Watching Liam and Hope is making me have PTSD symptoms - my eyebrow twitches.  They are sooo unnervingly irritating and so vanilla-basic-cringe. Their problems are so fake and their  conversations make me want to drink alcohol.

Liam needs to be killed off. He is dead weight in the show and every time he is around, the show is losing precious seconds they can invest in some different characters/storylines. No offense to Scott Clifton, but Liam's got to go.

Taylor's chakra cleanse will for sure involve penetration at some point. Ridge knows it. Taylor knows it. We know it. Even Brooke knows it. 

So - Brooke better pack. Her time with the designer's done. Bradley's decided this new Taylor deserves 2 pictures in the intro, her chakras cleansed AND Ridge as a consolation price. So, Brooke, babe, pack the 50 dollar bra and panties and go somewhere else. Find some mistake (Cough... Finn... cough... Thomas...) and have fun girl. It's a blessing in disguise.  Move on! 

 

Ugh!

It’s wild to sit down and think how much insanity has occurred here in 2024.

When the year began we were still talking about Eric’s Christmas miracle and his stapler.

Then it was all about how bad Thomas was for Hope.

Then Luna got a hold of Poppy’s mints and that dragged on.

Then out of the blue Sheila attacked Steffy and died. Luckily for us Deacon saw the body had ten toes and Googled “Who is Sugar?”

We also had Deacon marry Sheila, Thomas randomly run off with Paris to Paris (I wonder what her sister Zoe had to say…) and the whole Bill has a family with Poppy and Luna.

We nearly got HINN

Then we had the Il Giradino murders and Luna turning into a psychopath.

Now we have this mess with Taylor taking center stage while Hope and Carter are about to get it on.

YUP. This is the worst year of the entire show in my opinion and I've watched pretty much everything with little exceptions... maybe just 1994 (I hate this year with passion, since it was the Bradley-Bell-turning-Bold-into-circus-season) can rival it... but 1994 still had some amazing stuff in comparison and of course some of the Bill Bell energy still lingering on. 2024 is the first year I'm not even adding to my Bold collection. I don't know if I will care to add these episodes. Not that 2023 was a lot better, but it had a lot less insanity. 

2024 has been insane non stop. None of it builds up, none of it makes sense, none of it matters in the long term. Crash after crash after crash. With every new storyline I say to myself - can it get worse than that? And then we get mints and a rape.... And then I tell myself again - ok, no, this is rock bottom, and Bradley tops his insanity with Sheila in the dungeon, burning the missing-toe-corpse... and on and on and till the Broken heart syndrome... Taylor's blocked chakra and Ridge's curative penis. 

What is next? Sex demon invading Hope's body? Luna being revealed to be a Tesla AI robot? Sheila getting pregnant by Thomas? Brooke finding an anti-ageing potion that makes her 35 again? Taylor's chakra opening to reveal Hunter Tylo's face?  

I really hope that after hitting rock bottom, they can rebuild something in 2025.

But I am also scared... of what's to come.

    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.
    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

      Btw, if he’s on again, you should apply to be a contestant
    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.
