I'm just laughing at how great Bradley thinks BB is right now. The guy is delusional.

I think Liam is toast at this point. There really is nowhere for the character to go, IMO

Liam went from completely overexposed to totally MIA. “I’m at a point where I’m trying to come up with his next chapter” is hilarious. Finn, Carter, and Zende are all that’s left of its Millennial male contingent, yet those three are barely characters at this point.

A Thomas recast feels inevitable in the coming months. Not sure what went down with Matthew Atkinson.

I was never much of a Thomas fan no matter who played him. He always comes off as creepy. But MA was pretty good in the role considering. 

There's a lot of WTF with casting and dropped storylines on this show. But, it's been that way for about 25 years, so...

I would LOVE to see what a fresh, new head writer could bring to the show, but that ain't happening...ever.

We still need some "have nots" on the show clawing their way up. The fact that we still don't have any Latinos in Los Angeles or gay people working at a fashion house....it's like the show is stuck in 1988 casting.

Liam: "a front-burner story but one that’s completely different for him.”

Deacon/Sheila:  'a new story ... it’s going to be something completely different for them.”

Answer: Throuple.

You're welcome.

🤣

With Luna moving into the Spencer mansion, I’m quite sure we’ll at least get a quickie episode of Liam learning about Luna’s living arrangement, tell Bill he is done with living with him and has a brief farewell scene with Steffy telling her that he’s taken a job at Spencer Publications bureau in Cairo or something lol.

My favorite line is this….

'We are excited," Bell enthuses. "This many years into it, we are as pumped up as we've ever been.

It's just a wonderful team here and I see us as a little half-hour engine that could. We're still here and we're still plugging along and we're really going to be delivering our best drama.'

And expects 2025 to be his best year ever... and THINKS HE HAS DEVELOPED a new generation (from characters that he introduced couple of months ago basically)... AND IS GIVING LIAM A FROOOOOOOOOOONT BURNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Count me out. 

EW.

Regarding possible preemptions for President Jimmy Carter, I don't know yet.
But likely that soaps will be preempted Thursday January 9th?
The full schedule of proceedings/ceremonies, lying-in-state, and funerals (in Georgia and in Washington DC) at this link:
https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/67963-former-president-jimmy-carter-has-passed/?do=findComment&comment=1982932 

 

Per SOD: B&B may be fully or partially preempted on Tuesday, January 7, and/or Thursday, January 9, for CBS News coverage of the official state funeral for former President Jimmy Carter.

No word on GH or Y&R, however, it seems both may not be preempted.

^{I bet they'll air it like normal on Paramount Plus}

I'm going to say all soaps will be preempted on Thursday.
