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.

    • Yes, they did.  I still have them.  I think there were three.  AMC and GH as well.
    • Ah okay, thats what I thought. I was hoping I missed the announcement somewhere. Thanks for the clarification.
    • A new day in Salem… and a new day for Days.  I like the way everybody found out and absorbed the news about John’s death, and how they all eventually found their way to Marlena’s to offer their condolences. I’m not particularly sure why they waited until the next day to tell everybody but I don’t really mind it.  We finally got Roman’s perspective! His scenes with Kayla were one of the best parts of today. I’m glad that Roman is thankful for everything that John did for his kids. I agree with posters who said that he should’ve had a scene like this with John, but I’m happy we got this at least.  Julie was used very well today too. She’s definitely the best person for Marlena to have scenes with at the moment. Hopefully, Julie continues to be there for her. And yes, I totally agree with Marlena and Belle sending EJ away when he came to the apartment. I’m curious to see what’s going to happen to his and Belle’s relationship in the aftermath of all this. And, while I enjoyed most of Brady and Kristen’s scenes, I still think the ship has sailed for them. Hopefully, the aftermath of John’s death causes Brady to finally end this thing with her once and for all.  And, I see a lot of people were wearing some kind of shade of purple today.

    • Wow, I love that current and former actors are participating in this. I barely recognize Staci Greason! She looks fine, just very different. But I will be happy to hear anecdotes from her. I shipped RoJohn and Isabella hard back in the day, and I sobbed buckets in my dorm room at college when Izzy B passed. Honestly, I'm interested in everyone's stories. Drake seemed like he was well loved among the cast.
    • When she first appeared, I was sure she was setting Tyrell up for a prank. She was too much of a manic pixie dream girl- I wasn't surprised Tyrell also became suspicious. Now I'm not so sure. If Jessica genuinely likes Tyrell, it seems like a missed opportunity to not have started her out as a bully, then we see her gradually catch feelings for Tyrell.  The McBrides are definitely the "C" family of BTG. They always get last priority. There have been a few times where the Doug/Vanessa/Joey characters reference off screen conversations which seem too important to not show us. Like when Doug thanked Joey for giving him extra time to pay off the loan. When did that happen? Or when we abruptly moved from Vanessa/Joey at Uptown to Vanessa/Doug in the hotel room. The McBrides don't even have their own set - even though Vanessa is a realtor. It's a shame because I am a fan of the characters and actors.

      I am also adjusting to KR as Ted but I feel that AM and MJ had way more chemistry as father and daughter than AM and KR. We saw Eva dream of having a real relationship with MJ's version of Ted for months so it's a bit of a bummer not to have that payoff with the original actor except for those scenes in MJ's last episode.  Something I noticed about Eva today is how she takes genuine delight in being a schemer. As badly as she wants to be a Richardson, she still has so much of her mom in her. It was jarring seeing her earnestly promise to steer clear of Leslie in her scene with Ted, then immediately switch attitudes when her mom showed up.  I'm very surprised with how quickly the accident story has been moving along. I was sure that it would be months if not years before people figured out it was Leslie on the motorcycle, not to mention responsible for the potassium overdose. I'm looking forward to seeing how MVJ and Guza avoid writing Leslie into a corner.  Finally, I have been loving the Articulettes story. Bonita Brisker was just the right amount of OTT - remember Sharon is supposed to be even more angry than Tracy is. If Sharon didn't come in swinging, people would say she fell flat. The way Sharon and Tracy describe the breakup is so Supremes-meet-Original Recipe Destiny's Child. I get the sense that MVJ is re-writing the Return to Love Tour as a roman a clef, and I love it. I'm looking forward to finding out what the secret they share is. If Dante Green is as shady as Berry Gordy was, it's something dark. If/when they go through with the reunion, I expect Dante to show up and claim to own the Articulettes trademark in a Lou Pearlman-esque twist. 
    • Other than hanging out with Liz, all of Lucky's stories have been stalled out or dropped; the relationship with his son; his wanderlust. He hasn't been involved in any of the action/adventure or con artist stuff. I don't think he's even had a scene with Sidwell since the latter came to town. He's a real after thought. I doubt he's long for the show.
