B&B: December 2024 Discussion Thread

The huge, glaring omission in this whole story is obviously R.J. His absence makes absolutely no sense, and he should be right in the middle of it all.

Eric should also be more prominent, but then Brad Bell couldn't get the narrative he wants. Because I will never believe that Brooke would side with Hope and Carter against Eric. She would gladly do it to spite Steffy, and right now probably also to spite Ridge, but she wouldn't do it to Eric.

All it would take is a little memory.  Why has Hope not thrown anything in Steffy’s  face?  Wait, I’m the slut from the Valley but you jump in bed with Liam’s brother because WYYYY AT NOTTT?  When  Liam didn’t return a text/bumped his head on a plane?   Jumped in bed hot as a cat in heat?  Stolen any babies with your Mom lately?  Killed any girls on the side of the road lately ? Why aren’t you and your latest Mother In Law better friends? You have a lot on common.  Stalked Ivy lately over Liam?  Your husband know little puke will come sniffin soon and you’ll be riding son of Stallion before ya know it?  Or do you prefer Stallion himself?  
 

I seriously think they should go there, have Hope embrace it.

I just want to know is it really mandated that the Forresters sins are never suppose to get aired out like the Logan’s do?? It’s not good story telling, when history isn’t acknowledged and I really just want to know what Thudley has against any of what Steffy, Ridge or Taylor done in the past ever being bought up? Other than pushing this stupid “Logan’s are Bad” agenda.

Right!  Do they not have memories or keep up with what they write?  
 

I did want to say - KKL was great, IMO.  I am not a super fan or anything but, tears in eyes, natural, not scenery chewing screeching?   I really would think about the Emmy reel, and it would be great if she won.  
 

If they’re going to have Ridge go there, have Brooke rake him.  Did you forget you’re not even a Forrester?  And that means neither is Steffy, right?  All of you are imposters.  Bring Thorne back in and support Brooke.

I draw the line at Ridge... Hope's father figure since birth... calling her a "worthless slut"...  Disgusting. I have no other words. 

BTW - KKL was bringing it tonight! Made me have goosebumps when she finally burst out with anger. One of her best performances. 

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! I got goosebumps!

I actually do think it'd be hilarious if the REAL Forresters were actually in favor of Ridge and Steffy being pushed out of the company....We really should be getting the whole Marone factor back into play.

 

Yes, but HATEEEE that Ridge walked out on his own!!!

Ridge should have known better... he should have remembered what happens when Brooke is on the prowl. They are calling them "worthless sluts"... Girls, let's show them what a "slut" is capable of!

Ridge and his guard dog of a daughter are going to squirm. Their tyranny is OVER. Forrester was best when it was operated and dominated by a " worthless slut"... Ridge should remember the time when he was an employee of Brooke and kissing her ass every day at work. That's going to be his future again. History always repeats itself. 

And that's the best case scenario for these idiots. In the worst case scenario... he should give the guard dog... condolences about her future divorce with her husband. Mama Brooke's gonna get that revenge the most wicked way possible.

The absolute hypocrisy being displayed this week with the Forrester's acting holier than thou is laughable. Eric, Ridge and especially Steffy are judging Hope for the men she's been with??? Look in the mirror losers. I have watched B&B since the first episode so I REMEMBER everything. This selective amnesia is ridiculous. Hope and Brooke should be calling them all out for their past indiscretions.

The past 6 months KKL has been given great material and she just brings it - her convos with Hope about Finn, Brooke's Bedroom and, now, the FC takeover.

KKL actually got me to tear up when she read Ridge. Her acting choices were superb. Instead of histrionics and blathering, she served a captivating and believable performance.

Of course as Brooke is hovering over those bottled waters ... I kept wondering how long before 2022's "Why did I drink?' is replaced 2025's 'RIDGE, you made me drink!'

I really hope not. The last thing we need is to see a 60+ woman drinking herself to death because of this clown. Brooke should step her sh-t up and rule the company like a despot. The same way... and even worse than Ridge and his guard dog. 

I am done with seeing women cry and act weak for men like Ridge Forrester. It's time misogyny suffers a blow or two.

Maybe I would care about this story if not within six months...

Ridge and Steffy will get the company back. Carter will be "forgiven" and be back to being Ridge's "best friend and part of the family" and barely used. Ridge will bounce back and forth between Brooke and Taylor a few times (again). No one will even remember that ANY OF THIS even happened.

This has been a problem with the show for many, many years. There are never any long-term impacts to any of the stories. Instead, everything is "reset" to what it was before with zero character growth...or hell, even acknowledgment that anything happened!

    • 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.

      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.

    • 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.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...
