B&B: December 2024 Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

She really has been benched. Which is why I was happy to see that she seems to quickly be becoming friends with Remy, and it felt like her 'psycho' senses were slooooooowly going off observing him. And I hoped she might catch on. But if they are rushing the story (I haven't started watching this week episodes yet) already...perhaps it will be nothing.

 

I agree. B&B...like Y&R BITD...had a reputation of seeing if a story is not working, quickly taking a turn or ending it outright. So it should be easy fixes and yet...*shrugs* 

IKR!!! How the mighty have fallen.

I don't get the acceleration of the Remy reveal. Why has Will been the one pushing for answers and not Ivy? That's completely illogical. Ivy is not only her aunt, but also her boss. Ivy's just been like OK Electra got fired. Um, I thought Ivy needed a skilled assistant to successfully launch the jewelry line. So Ivy's lost her assistant and is completely blase about it? Stupid! 

Remy is a goner after he snapped back at presumably Deacon about never cleaning the grill again. Why bring him on, get him at job/apt at Ill Pizza Shack only to write him off. This is weird.

Meanwhile, we have to listen to Luna whine that she's being mistreated in prison. Honey, ask Tom, Hollis and Steffy how they feel. Watch Finn/Steffy welcome Luna back to the family, while Sheila is a forever pariah. Maybe Sheila will save Electra. Perhaps, Eric will thank her as Steffy rolls her eyes.

One last thing: the French singer asks for Brooke. Instead of saying Brooke, as CEO is taking meetings with anybody, the response is Brooke is at *home* taking care of things. WTH? So unbelievably bad writing.

The frustrating part is that all of the above stuff could be somewhat compelling with a few tweaks in the writing.

Spot on, as usual. I have nothing to add. I just love I'm not the only one that thinks all of this. Especially the last part about Brooke - she is the disappointment of 2024. I can't root for this woman anymore, if she'll act like this.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks the Remy/Electra storyline is being rushed like crazy.

You know what's worse than a bad storyline? Rushing a bad storyline. I appreciate it when soaps make course corrections based on what they see or on audience feedback, but BOLD takes that to new heights. What's happening with Remy is nuts.

BOLD does this with stories and with actors/characters. Krista Allen pissed off someone? Gone. Joshua Hoffman as RJ? Gone. Matthew Atkinson? Gone. Darrin Brooks as Wyatt? Gone.

I'm still waiting for Krista Allen to write a Tell All. Getting the boot after a fresh Emmy nomination and being invited to a cast photo... is something I want to read more about. The dynamics and the situations that led to all of this. I have my version in my mind, of course, but would love to read it from the woman herself. That's just a dream of mine, she's not obliged to do it of course, Krista doesn't owe us anything.

I just... have these scenes in my mind.

Like I said...Ridge ain't @#$!. He stood there in Brooke's face and wanted to go off on her when he was just playing kissy-face with Taylee. Oh the reveal of that was delicious. The only thing missing was Brooke slapping the taste out of his mouth.

 

I wonder how long this Zende double agent storyline will go on.

    • And, to me it is a little bit hilarious that AW fans all over continue to refer to it as Egyptian Dust Recently elsewhere I've been running polls. When did you stop watching AW or What storyline caused you to stop watching AW. You may be interested to know that sticking it out till the bitter end is winning by a landslide. Next highest vote getter is - no surprise - Frankie's murder. So that covers like 60% & next 20%. Then the votes drop way down to 10% and well below but a wide array of reasons are given, including but not limited to  Justine Lumina Rachel having twins at her age, how ridiculous Mac's death the 90 minute show firing JC, George R & Dwyer Hmm, I know there are a few more, in the 1%-3% range but I cannot think of what they are. Sorry, my bad. Should have made notes but I didn't know I would be posting about it. LOL!!  
    • A kind angel has added both episodes to the vault (UK Diva TV broadcast version). 
    • Yes, I think that is the most likely situation.  TPTB were unhappy with the offer(s) they got from the tourism board in Finland, and decided the trip was going to be too expensive for P&G/NBC to finance alone.   I would also speculate a similar situation likely occurred a few years later with the planned location shoot in Egypt, which was also cancelled after the storyline had already started, and changed to Arizona.

    • In my usual account on my most used video hosting site with the video title  DAYS 1-8-15 Will & Paul Sex This is an edit I began when I was first teaching myself to edit & at that time I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do. I pulled it up & finished it this morning. 
    • Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.
    • Finland seemed such an odd choice for a location shoot. ATWT went to Greece and later Spain while GL had Tenerife and there were others in that timeframe. But Finland not being a known tourist destination or offering the tropical/sunny atmosphere usually associated with location shoots seems off brand. Maybe they were negotiating a deal with a tourist association and it fell through.
    • I was talking about 1986, but the glimpses of 1982 are about the same. 
    • I skimmed some of the 1982 synopses; Steve was planning on an opening an office in Finland, and I think Jim went there as part of the preparation. That probably was a big issue; AW had already gone to San Diego that year, with Rachel/Steve/Mitch. And to upstate NY with Pete and Diana. I wonder if upstate was as expensive lol  AW in 1982 has always fascinated me, because of how messy it was
