B&B: December 2024 Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

Give CM a break. He's been given a lot of material - most of it blah - and airtime in a short period of time. I think he's doing a great job. Plus, you know every time HT looks at him, she's flashing back to Y&R!

At least we know why RJ has been missing. And I agree with @dragonflies they should've cast Remy as RJ - he even looks like he could be Ridge's son.

B&B definitely was more interesting when suspense was added this summer with Lunacy, but I don't get why they'd stack Lunacy whining with the Remy climax. Why not spread these stories out?

I have repeatedly said that with the material these people are given... not much acting can save it. But saying that Crew Morrow can act circles around KKL and AN... sounds like a joke without a punchline. It really does. Crew is not even remotely in the league of Annika Noelle. And that is normal. Nobody expects it from him. He's a newbie. He has time to grow.  

That I agree with. He should have been Brooke's gay son that wrecks Ridge's misogyny and homophobia to pieces. It would have been so nice. But...  shoulda woulda coulda...  Bradley Bell will never do it.

Bold is my oldest... toxic relationship.

I am definitely kind of bummed at the prospect of MA being gone as Thomas. He's definitely a decent actor and personally I will miss him, if he is indeed gone. 

B&B is an absolute train wreck and I am out of excuses for Brad Bell. He has a habit of pulling a rabbit out of a hat and making the show fire, when it's been as boring as watching paint dry. However, NOTHING is working for me at all right now.

Brooke is the biggest disappointment. Susan Flannery's Stephanie is missed beyond measure.

I just can't wait for Beyond The Gates.

I watched today’s episode and yeah it was another laugh riot:

1. The warp speed of the stalker storyline involving two newbies. 

2. Will having a montage of his memories with Electra…haven’t they only been together since October?

3. The PSA talk between Katie, Will, Ivy, Carter, and Hope

4. Lunacy. I predict she probably asked someone to beat her up just to play up $Bill’s sympathy. 

In fact after we get through the Electra story I predict we are going to get some weird tawdry Bill/Luna/Will triangle. I feel it in my bones already.

Well when everything else is boring I suppose Thudley & crew decided at least muster up some energy for these spaced out episodes as the show is off again for the next two days until Thursday. So even if both stories are mess it did provide an adequate cliffhanger, for anyone(if there is anyone)that actually cares at least lol.

@soapfan770  Glad you mentioned that ridiculous montage Will had of Electra. They've known each other all of 5 seconds and Bradley is doing a montage of them as a couple.

We all know your bias towards JMW/Steffy but to say Crew is a better actor than KKL or Annika??? What? Come on. 

I'm going to stick up for Laneya Grace - I think she's doing a decent job with her first dramatic scenes.  I see potential with her, especially with her being very young.  And I think Crew does an okay job in his day-to-day scenes - he hasn't done anything dramatic yet.  With Will/Electra being such a good looking couple, it's such a big missed opportunity to have such bad writing for them.

So is Remy falling over?

Electra is dumb as dirt. Why is she hiding instead of screaming bloody murder?

The Ivy and Katie scenes were zzzzzzzzzzzz. Why is Ivy so calm?

Will sucks. Those remote scenes of Will motorcycling around the studio was.

So Dollar Bill is God? The bright heavenly light was a bit much.

Dollar Bill is very gullible.

    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
    • Haha. The fact that I stopped regularly viewing at the same time and know what you are talking about is chef's kiss.    I'm slowly bingewatching Nurse's Ball Week. But it's slow for me because a lot of the same tics and writing flaws for me that made me throw up my hands is still evident *cough*CVE*cough* Thankfully, there are some things I like also and from a glance in the GH May Thread, it seem like it had a good Sweeps with good fallout. And do I even need to mention Nina finally slapping the taste out of Carly's mouth? See? Regardless of her flaws, I do enjoy Korte-headed episodes over CVE-headed episodes because they always seem to have more emotional resonance to long-time fans.
    • And that charity does still get mentioned from time to time. I want to say the last time was some time this year, too. 
    • Oh, no. Vernon has definitely had his moments.   Choose silence anyone?
    • Search YT for Edwyn Sanchez, he posted an AI enhanced episode of ATWT and it is beautiful.   
    • That's so funny, that's how I listen to Montecito - while walking my dog. I'll have to check out Forever & a Day.
    • I need to listen! Forever & a Day was a fun soapy podcast to have available when I walked the dog.
