B&B: December 2024 Discussion Thread

An idea about the finale of the show... Sheila puts poison in everyone's food at Taylor and Ridge's wedding. Nobody survives except Brooke who is left all alone without a single surviving child, sister etc. Sheila goes to prison... Brooke retires from "high society"... to live out her final few decades of life in a german convent. In the last few scenes we see nuns whispering to each-other in german... with english subtitles... saying - You know who the new one reminds me of? I read about this in the newspaper years and years ago... about this wicked woman that slept with an entire family and she caused them so much misery! She looks just like her. No way... our quiet, modest... Brigita... no way she can be her! You are imagining things. - the other nun replies. Brooke overhears this and just... smiles slightly. A sad, heartbreaking smile. 

The last shot is old Brooke watching from a window... we hear people talking in the garden of the convent and someone says in german "She is such a slut"... about someone else (not Brooke) in the distance. Brooke kisses the little cross on her neck. The theme music of the bold and the beautiful sounds, but in a moody orchestral arrangement...  the camera zooms out to... first the window, then the convent, then the surrounding beautiful fields with sheep and a dog that is chasing them. 

FIN.

Yes! Yes! Yeeeeeeeees!

She acted like she wanted to basically ignore what happened... Left her child to the wolves... and went home with the vile chauvinist pig only to once again beg him and ask him in a pathetically passive tone - Ridge, let's talk this problem out... let's find a solution.

What solution, you clown? The guy just called your daughter a nasty little bitch and you're going to try to reason with him?! I truly hope this is just a build up for Brooke to unleash on Ridge and bury the Bridge myth once and forever. I truly hope so.

And I pray this is a step towards... writing Ridge off (doubt it knowing Bradley). He needs to go. Him and Liam (who's practically gone thank you Jesus) should go on an airplane together and be last seen somewhere over the Pacific Ocean.

I can't stop thinking about something... Brooke needs to get back to her old tricks after breaking up with Ridge this time. And you know what I'm thinking... Who needs Finn... that would be a cheap scandal without any consequences... Liam... blah... who needs that...

I know who she should hook up and torment Ridge and Taylor with - Thomas freaking Forrester! Played by a whole new actor. Why I say brand new one, because... at this point I doubt MA will return. I see no signs of it. He's practically gone. 

They should cast someone that KKL has chemistry with... Someone 40ish years old, Ronn Moss-type in appearance! She started the show by marrying the father (Eric)... she should end it by marrying the grandson (Thomas). It will be classic Bradley Bell... and Ridge will sh-t himself in his pants if he has to witness Logan and his son marrying. It will be disgusting, yes, but Bradley Bell's already done it sort of... in 2011.  

I say - why not.

First time I hear these rumors is right here, right now. Never heard this.

Ever. I only based my opinion on the fact that 2024 is pretty much a gone year for him. In Bold... that means you are out most of the time.

Loved Steffy hitting Hope with her shoulder as she left. 

LSV is a terrible actor. His expressions don't match his scenes. They should've recast the role before putting him front and center.

Hope is a hot pathetic blabbering mess. I actually hate her.

He's still in the credits. He's not the only one that's been given the shaft. Did RJ leave town?

For the love of god Hope, please channel your inner Amanda Woodward and relish this moment. Gloat. Rub it in. None of this nonsense about scared and shocked facial expressions. Grin. Be smug.

Watching her and Carter guilt over this and watching her take all the things Ridge and Steffy say to her just sitting down isn’t entertaining at all. Conflicts are far more entertaining when the two parties can dish it as good as they take it.

This, I hate seeing Hope try to grovel and rationalize with Steffy - "oh, I wasn't trying to seduce your husband! I'm sooooo sorry." whereas Steffy would be like "you're damn right I f*cked your husband, because you can't satisfy him!" And Brooke telling Ridge about Hope and Carter's plans, thinking the harpies would give her credit... just no.

I'm sure Brad will pull another stunt with Hope. We will find out Hope was using Carter to get back at Steffy, and all this crying was part of her act.

 

I mean, Carter and Hope have known each other for all of 5 seconds and became an instant couple. It is ridiculous!

It’s just so….sickening!!

 I can’t even go into any long rants other then shame on Bradley for ignoring his own shows history, and just continuing this “Logan’s are evil” facade, after everything those MARONE a$$holes have pulled over the years. 
at this point I wouldn’t even know how to fix all this, and I think the shows even more damaged beyond repair at this point. 

Someone on X suggested that Steffy is probably gonna get Liam to make Hope forget about Carter and to get her back out of the company…that’s such a Brad Bell move and it’s predictable…..and in Steffys case because she chased after Liam herself all those years it would be too desperate on her end, although that’s how she is. 
 

sorry I can’t hide my disdain for Steffy, but I don’t mind if you prefer her over hope! lol

    • I have to be honest I’m really struggling with this show. I love everything with Eva/Leslie/Ted/Nicole/Kat and enjoy Dani and Bill’s shenanigans (I’m on the Hayley needs to be recast train now tho), Chelsea is second to Kat as my favorite Dupree grandkid and I loved her coming out to her mom. The show was on a truly great run with the big Leslie and Eva reveal at Nicole and Ted’s anniversary party and the fall out has still been good even with the unnecessary Ted recast and them making Leslie kind of dumb by exposing herself too much unnecessarily. The real problem for me started when they rotated back to way too damn much screen time for Derek/Ashley/Andre (if anyone should have been up first for a recast it was these three IMO). They tried way too hard to drum up drama between Ashley and Derek and the actors were clearly fighting for their mediocre charisma less acting lives to make it work but none of it landed, just horrible. Naomi and Jacob and this weird homeless woman story are also BORING. I can see where its potentially going but IDGAF at all, my only hope for them is that they’re building a triangle with Naomi/Jacob/Kat because Jacob and Kat have stronger chemistry together than their current love interests (Eva is the only one who can make the awful Tomas work). Martin, his secret and still cringe worthy acting got kind of interesting with Bill dropping hints to Smitty but they completely lost me with that lil fakeout scene at the country club. The lame “teenagers” (air quotes because Samantha is no Bianca Lawson and never beating the black Andrea Zuckerman allegations) can get off my screen as well. Joey creeping on Vanessa is grossing me out at this point, I actually quite like Vanessa and Doug now but Joey falls totally flat as a villain and someone we’re supposed to buy Vanessa being enamored with. I’m glad they’ve finally set up something interesting for Vernon and Anita to do with this girl band reunion instead of Anita wringing her hands and telling us she feels darkness coming and Vernon giving a civil rights speech every episode but yeah… People who’ve posted with me for other shows know I’m not one for fast forwarding or hate watching either, if I find a majority of a show is not working I usually just quit but because of what this show represents for me as a Black male soap fan I really want to stick it out. Its just become a challenge lately. I saw Guza has left the building and I REALLY hope we hear about some more BTS changes. The additions of Tracy Thompson and Jamie Giddens don’t exactly inspire a lot of confidence from me tho. Honestly praying hard for a new EP to replace JHC, a lot of the stuff that annoyed about her PC and AMC runs has started to match up here. I’m giving the show through the Summer to rectify some things but IDK how long I can hold on tbh. Its been a struggle to even finish some of these episodes lately.
    • I agree. I liked the episode but it felt jarring to suddenly return to a bunch of plots that had been put on pause since the Nurses' Ball started. Although I did like Laura popping in at the end to tell Alexis that millions of dollars have suddenly disappeared from Ace's trust fund. One set of scenes that made me feel optimistic for the next few months were between Sofia Mattsson and Rory Gibson. While Rory has been good as a darker, colder Michael this week, I was worried that he might not have much range. But he really warmed up with Mattsson, and I thought that (for the first time) Michael and Sasha had some genuine chemistry.
    • Next week is going to be such a sad time... I just feel it based on what was shown today. I'm wondering if the whole John being bandaged thing being a throwback to how he first arrived on the show was a Ron C idea since it just seems as though this would be something he would come up with.  If so, it's good that Cwikly/Ford are in charge with the implementing of the idea instead of him. Just a delayed thought from the Ciara scenes earlier in the week, or last week.. and how she had an odd way of dressing/acting.  I chuckle because little Ciara did say that she admired and wanted to be just like Kristen when she grew up.  So the fact that her outfit choices are so odd/off beat and her manner is a bit OTT just fits.. especially since Eileen's Kristen had an odd sense of fashion and that frantic OTT undertone to her delivery. With that said, a part of me wonders how Eileen's Kristen would have handled the scenes being done this week in regards to John's situation.   
    • My god the smirking was back in full force today. He almost started smiling after Johnny mentioned he wouldn’t be there if EJ hadn’t raped Sami. I will say I did like seeing him with Dee as they’ve always had great chemistry.    They really are giving a lot of false hope with John getting better. I wish they hadn’t done that. Monday is going to be devastating. I really liked all the characters mixing and mingling today.  Nu-Rachel is still too sweet for me. Loved all the flashbacks. Everyone looked so young. Really enjoyed Brady’s scenes with John today.  
    • Valerie Mahaffey Dead: ‘Northern Exposure,’ ‘Dead to Me’ Actress Was 71 Loved her. I've never seen her Doctors work. 
    • Valerie Mahaffey Dead: ‘Northern Exposure,’ ‘Dead to Me’ Actress Was 71 I just loved Valerie on my early '90s TV shows. This one gets me. 
    • I assume they did at some point during the finale...
    • Kelly was a horribly-written character overall. Just think, two Emmy-winning actresses (including Cynthia Watros, Nina, GH, and Annie, GL) couldn't make it work. Pamela is campy, but so are Dani, Vanessa, Leslie, and Joey. And, I don't want to be too judgy because my love for camp changes depending on the show. OLTL, DAYS, and some eras of GH had me rolling with the camp. However, Passions was overkill and I hated it. And, here, I can take it or leave it. It's ok in small doses (note to RC). I see this show as more of a serious drama.
    • I think one of the reasons that pilot didn't get picked up was because Vicki L was associated more with being Thelma Harper and playing older then she was playing her own age.  It was a blessing it didn't get picked up, or we would have been deprived of the syndicated era of Mama's Family.   Also, worth noting a Pre Night Court Marsha Warfield and pre Perfect Strangers Rebecca Arthur in the cast.  All talented women, but stuck with a bad script. And the other pilot had a pre Fran Fine.. Fran Drescher as the best friend.  I think that pilot might have been picked up if Karen Valentine and Fran Drescher switched roles.
    • So, on rewatch....did Rick and Mindy never have sex?
