B&B: December 2024 Discussion Thread

The only way to enjoy any of this is to laugh at it.

@Maxim I'm truly, madly, deeply in love with ... your posts!

We're back to the word of the day 'coup' kinda like 'toxic' for Queila since everything written for RS could've been played by KB.

I will say that JMW, KKL and RB make the show watchable. All three can take the most lifeless, repetitive and outright poor dialogue and make it work. And, man, the lines for Taylee the past few weeks have been downright awful.

Ooooh!

Have they been trying to make her look older or am I imagining that? I certainly could be.

[Maxim]

Bradley is taking care of that. That's prevention... to not get an Emmy nomination. 

Because we all know what will follow if she does.

I noticed. OC, RB is still gorgeous, but her hair is darker, make-up is mooted and clothes are neutral/frumpy. Compare to KKL's vivid and stylish outfits - she just glows - it's been her best styling in years.

Let's be real: can any soap mother-child pairing beat Lesley-Anne Down/Jack Wagner's five (5!) year age difference? And, unlike JMW, Nick looked his age.

I like Carter standing there like a boss (with an assist from Justin). Still I wish he had a team standing behind him to make the moment stick. For example, Zende would have been a great ally given his frustrations as a designer and fellow family “outsider.”

Justin: Shouldn't we discuss your legal options against Carter in private?

Eric: No, Carter's like family, he should stay

This whole story is so utterly stupid.... It must be one of the dumbest stories ever on this show. I wonder what Brad Bell was smoking, or drinking, or both, when he came up with this.....

Did I hear Eric correctly when he called Ridge “Tridge”? I also howled at Eric telling Carter he’s fired even though Carter is in charge

Another  Lunatic Friday letter and visit I see. 
 

Only thing of interest I saw this week was of Sheila and Remy bonding…you’d think Sheila would recognize the characteristics fast?

But alas, this show is as a [!@#$%^&*] dumb as a box of rocks, with apologies to insulting rocks.

[Soapsuds]

That was funny as hell!! Even the way he said it.

Hearing Justin say he consulted a lot of legal minds and precedents, and that "The transfer of power was clean" and rock solid had me HOWLING!!

And can we at least admit that LSV is just average as an actor? The guy is beautiful, but those acting "skills" are mediocre.

Lots of howling going on while watching the show today.

So when Carter is waxing about the Logans, etc., I kind wish the trio had fired back:

Eric: 'Brooke gave up the Forrester name not once, not twice, but three times! She'd have it now with Ridge for like the eighth time, but Brooke's playing the long game. She's waiting for Donna to cheat with Justin so I can finally remarry her and she'll finally have rightful place as the Forrester matriarch.'

Steffy: 'It's true. Right, Dad?'

Ridge: 'Good Lord, Carter, haven't you been paying attention to how this family works? That alone should disqualify you for any leadership position at FC.'

[Maxim]

So Brooke's mistake from 2001 aka Hope Logan... will now be the cause of Taylee and Ridge getting married?

God... I hope Brooke's revenge is sleeping with Finn. 

And how many days till Hope doesn't need Carter anymore and we don't see him again for a few months? After hearing of their grand loooove ad nauseam.

Oh, Bradley, Bradley. How will we survive without your horrible writing?
