Jennifer Gareis posted on Instagram that she lost her home in the California wildfires. Considering how bad it is, I wouldn't be surprised if we hear about this from more soap stars. I really feel for them because I know how hard they have to work for what they have without getting paid like their primetime counterparts.

The *coup* is exactly the type of story that B&B could mine for months or years.

- Brooke as CEO reclaims her righteous place in FC and the industry as FC thrives.

- Eric + the Marone spawn decide to create a rival fashion house. Clarke or Sally join them.

- Rick returns to support Brooke and protect his legacy as a Forrester, but Eric dangles a different offer. 

- Thomas returns from Paris and must choose to whether to work for HFTF or FC2.

- Zende and recast RJ also have conflicts and choices. Same with Ivy and Electra.

- $B wakes up from whatever mints Poppy has been secretly feeding him and decides he wants to play puppetmaster with the fashionistas.

Am I the only one seeing this as a rare opportunity to reboot B&B in an exciting way? Reverting to pre-coop would be a dead-end.

I would add one thing. Its time Donna packs her bags and moves out of the mansion... She can be Brooke's housekeeping for all I care. It's time Sheila Carter finished what she started in 1992. It's the perfect moment to get her hooks back into Eric. He's alone, lost his company, his wifey Donna is a Logan... And Donna vs Sheila could be funny. 

Sheila should not be wasted with making pizzas and Deacon. I'm sorry. 

Just an idea. Probably will never happen.

Cameron Mathison lost his home today, too.

Tracey Bregman lost her main California home in a fire a few years ago.  She had just moved into her other residence in Nashville at the time, but was commuting to L.A. to film Y&R.

Tracey is now posting on her IG stories empathetic words for all caught in the current fires, as well as the latest updates on refuges for animals

Hollywood is burning, guys. I'm so distressed. I am praying for everyone on the show... that lives there... and all the other people and animals that are affected. This is so distressing. Please God stop this.

So disappointing. Especially after she slapped him and pushed Taylor. OG Brooke would have called a press conference and announced Ridge and Steffy gone from the company with no way back.

    • Thanks so much for finding this & posting it. This makes me so angry!!!
    • Dani had a flashback of Dani getting ready for an event with Bill. The gown she wore in the flashback was light green and elegant and gorgeous. The light green flashback dress was quite different than the red/orange/lilac swirling print beaded gown that Dani is wearing to Nicole's anniversary party.   But there was clearly the show's intention to have the Dupree women (except for Nicole) wearing shades of red.   I love Anita but the red gown that she's wearing to the anniversary party -- not flattering.
    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny with back polka dots on black background) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.
    • Tate seems to love throwing punches now

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with. 
    • How did this come to be?

      Btw, if he’s on again, you should apply to be a contestant
    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.
