I wonder where the hell they could take the character at this point?!

I feel like the actress got such a raw deal, too. They should turned Luna into an evil pot stirrer but stop before MURDER. The show DESPERATELY needs a new young vixen. Instead, we get milk toast Elektra. Exciting! Not! 

Now, we don't even get to see RJ's biceps on the regular as a result.

I miss Hollis. His cute smile made the show tolerable every time he was on. And he could have been Brooke's best mistake ever. Now we have to wait... for Brinn to happen.

I watched today's episode. I guess... I'm back. That was a short pause... lol, but... guys... this is like a sickness, like a compulsion you can't stop. It's like I'm in hell and made to watch the show for eternity. Bradley Bell has my soul and he won't release it. Watching this show is bad karma from another life.

One thing I noticed - Brooke is talking in her girlish voice... she's forgotten that matriarch... deep-talking... and I can detect early signs of the Whore of Beverly Hills in her. Finn better prep (tetanus shots, all kinds of shots), because he's about to enter the Gates of Hell. You know it, I know it - it's coming. When Brooke smells blood... she goes in for the kill. And her next victim will be Finn.

I did not expect Brooke to go directly to Ridge. It was great! This is a pretty significant writing turn for B&B.

Here's why: Typical B&B is Brooke overhears from 3 more episodes, interrupts Carter + Hope - maybe pleas with them to change mind, etc. When Brooke goes to Ridge, instead of spitting it out like today, there's lots of vague hemming and hawing, multiple interruptions *and*, right before Brooke spills it, someone else - like Taylee - walks in and reveals the truth, which makes Brooke look bad. Loyal B&Bers tell me I'm wrong! lol

Hope should have learned from Bridget. The SFTV always picks men before her children. That's who she is. She will sell her soul to the Devil to not lose Ridge to Sickly Taylee. 

I loved it. Classic Brooke.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
    • French fan summary Rusty took over Simon's job at Lewis Trucking after Simon transferred to Lewis Oil's North Carolina office to live near Jessie and Calla. I doubt they would bother following up a story for offscreen characters eg marriage and a baby.
    • I suspected that the performance with the reveal was the reason why the Ted actor got the axe and it looks like I was right. He wasn't really good at conveying what needed to be conveyed in those scenes. Claybon is at least slowly improving (but I agree that he still needs to work on his line delivery), but I do wonder what will happen when his big reveal is coming up. 
    • I've already asked this before, recently, but can anyone who watched those years more closely tell me if anything said about Jessie and Simon at the end of their profiles is accurate (about them marrying, naming a baby after Brandon/Lujack, etc.)?
