[I Am A Swede]

Right now I'm not sure Brad Bell could write a post-it note....

His stories are not good. The dialogue is repetitive, and character names seem to be copied and pasted from old scripts. How many times are we going to hear Fake Ridge say the words "How could you do this to me?"

THIS! What would have been good would have been if the Forresters threatened to call the police, and Bill said, "That's fine. But, then I'll need to tell them that Taylor shot me." 

And, we're supposed to believe that Bill got Luna a full pardon for TWO murders. If they had to get Luna out of jail, the best way would have been to somehow reveal that she wasn't the one who killed Tom and Hollis...only "thought" she did due to a mental break. A HUUUUUUGE stretch but would have made a tiny bit more sense.

The fact that this show has nearly 1 million more viewers in ratings... than GH and BTG... is just offensive at this point. Vile. Because it's in a pit of artistic failure. And they have 75 000 new viewers compared to last year?!!

What the hell is going on?

Are people's standards really this low. Or am I the one that is out of touch with reality.

I just watched yesterday's episode in 1.75 speed. So it took me a little more than 10 minutes. I'm not giving it more time. Taylor is insufferable. We lost Krista Allen for this?!!   Excuse me... Taylee, not Taylor. All she does is repeat whatever Ridge says. If Ridge says - The sky is red, Taylee confirms - The sky looks to be red. Doesn't Bradley Bell get tired of glorifying this chauvinist pig Ridge every single day. It's like the entire show exists around his ego.

I can't help but think... if KKL leaves... in a year or two, I won't be surprised. Brooke is dead at this point.  I'm so sad to have to say this, since you all know KKL is my girl. She is my favorite soap actress since I was a child. But I'm sad to see the condition the character is in. Pathetic, lost, no layers, no nuances, no strength, no drive, no drama. DEAD. 

THIS WAS THE ERA for Brooke Revival and Brooke Renaissance. It's been decades since she's left Ridge and become CEO. Decades since she's been in a similar position. This was a time to bring a new man for her and make her find true love later in life. Just imagine the chemistry she had with Hollis and how we were robbed of that.

But no. Brooke is basically written out.

And when in a year she is back in the corner acting like Ridge's cheerleader and Hope's emotional support... this will be all so disappointing.
