B&B: November 2024 Discussion Thread

Same.

[Maxim]

Lately I've been missing the edge he used to bring... and that venom that he could bring out of certain female leads. Everything is flat nowadays... And nobody knows how to write female dialogue. It's so unrealistic. I don't want to name names... but it's bad, bad, bad. Bradley needs to do something, or soon we'll see KKL and TK writing dialogue for the show. (which may be better than what we are getting right now BTW!)

It's turned to Y&R circa a week ago. lol.

[Maxim]

I could swear... KKL was almost drifting into sleep in her boring scenes with Taylee. Her facial expressions were saying - God... this show is so boring, I miss my vacations in Italy! LOL.  And they are making her so vanilla, so predictable. OG Brooke would have f-cked Finn by now, just to spite Taylee and Steffy. Why is Brooke such a coward these days? All she does is cry to Ridge and ask Hope - How are you doing, sweetie. I mean... it's a record for Bradley Bell to write a character that has 200 episodes a year, but only has 2 types of scenes. 

LOL. 

[Maxim]

It's official... I can't stand Wilectra!  Can't get more boring and basic.

Does Electra have stalker?

[1974mdp]

Elektra is soooooo boring simply because it's just another flatly written "Forrester" character. There's nothing new here. God forbid the show bring in a Latina character who has to claw her way up Beverly Hills society a la Brooke-ish from the 1980s. The show feels sooo claustrophobic now.

[Maxim]

AMEN. AMEN. AMEN. AMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN. 

[Soapsuds]

Elektra and Will are your typical boring, vanilla characters. Elektra has been on air only a couple of times, and she's already getting a major story? Bradley hasn't read Douglas Marland's rules of what not to do on a soap.

 

I'm calling it! Luna and Elektra's stalker are going to hook up to cause havoc.

I’m confused about Electra’s heritage…I thought she was Jessica’s daughter but then Ivy mentioned she is her brother’s daughter…? WTF. 
 

This show deserves a grade of Z- for November sweeps. 

Nick Newman Jr is also underwhelming……The stalker story already? He’ll probably turn out to be some lost kid of Sheila’s or the lost kid named Jack.

Thudley watching Nick Newman episodes circa 1994, are definitely not doing wonders for Morrow jr

His dad is still the champ! His acting hasn't improved one damn bit! He was just reading his lines on yesterday's episode. God, he's awful!

[Maxim]

Will is the most boring character ever. Like... He makes me fall asleep. I'm just not into it at all. Electra adds another layer of basic unnecessary we've seen it a million times already we are bored make it go away... Vibe. The show is unwatchable and I'm kinda out. I prefer spending my time watching quality shows like Another World and Edge of night. 

Maybe if Brooke sleeps with Finn... Or Bradley Bell fires himself...  Then call me. 

[Bold Days]

Maxim, I feel your pain. My situation consisted of "ludes". And I don't expect you to reply.

I was just expressing my opinion about a fictional story that was possibly rewritten to show manipulation. And yes, Luna cried alone, but that could also be re-written as guilt for cheating and possibly ruining Zende's character. Not saying that excuses anything, but as we all know, in the soap opera world even the dead are risen without any side effects.

Bradley forgetting the history of his own show again?
