Are we ready to go back to Titanic?

Cheers to another month of Bradley Bell experimenting with our sanity!

-- Luna says "Just because I did some bad things, that doesn't make me a bad person. Then Granny Sheila tells her the same thing.

Uh....if you kill two people in cold blood, you are a bad person. Why do I even have to say that?

-- Of course, my feelings about Killer Luna and Killer Sheila subside when I hear Steffy again rail against them. She trashes them right in front of Finn's face, and even though what she says it's true, it's unseemly and ugly to throw that up to your spouse. It makes me want the killers to go on a spree.

At this point... what Steffy is doing to poor Finn... is bullying. She doesn't let the poor guy have an opinion or his own attitude about anything. Imagine living with someone who tells you who you can meet or not meet, who you can like or not like. And I'm sorry if all the guy's blood relatives are serial killers... THEY ARE his blood relatives. And she can't make him ignore that. The guy needs proper ways to deal with this... and it's not going to be by being told - Don't see her or her or her. He needs to decide this ON HIS OWN. 

In real life... men who are constantly berated... forbidden to do this and that... always cheat. So I'm surprised Finn hasn't already. It's just tiring hearing Steffy repeat the same thing every single year. What stunning 40 year old woman like Steffy does nothing but talk negatively about people she despises... It's so out of touch with reality. She's acting like Stephanie... but not in her heyday, but in the pathetic years towards the end. Not a good look. JMW deserves so much better.

Poppy would make to most sense. Of all the women on the canvas, she's the least like Steffy - as flighty and free-spirited as Steffy is calculated and controlling. The fallout would be explosive.

One thing I can't stop thinking about. Why did we need to see Brooke in lingerie last year? I mean... It didn't lead to anything. It was 5-10 episodes of everyone acting like she is the second coming of Christ... (Or something else) And that was it. 

Why didn't Brooke's sudden re-activation as a fashion and soft porn icon... Lead to anything??? I remember they all acted like it was such a huge commercial success. If this is true... Why has all Brooke done in the last 8 months is cry about Ridge? This is so stupid.

I mean... Bradley Bell is bad... But even he could do better once. Do you guys remember that in the late 90s when the original Brooke in intimates project was created... It actually unleashed a new era for the character and she became Miss Professional Slut. All inhibitions were lost and she pounced on Thorne not long after. It was an evolution of sorts.

It could have been waaaaay more funnier and exciting to see Brooke get dizzy from the attention and feel sexy and desirable again.  A moment for a hot young lover type of thing that I think KKL could have sold amazingly. Just imagine the tabloids reading - Brooke Logan dating 4 decades younger man! She could have been the Madonna of the show.

So I will ask it again... Why did we see Brooke in a thong... and then nothing happened?

This question will haunt me to my grave.

Ugh.

-- Will told Katie that Luna came on to him at the Il Giordino Pizza Dump. Katie had a shocked look on her face, but we got no follow-up. Why?

-- Will says he and Luna are doing great and that he loves her. Oh, and that they're not on the same page. Say what?

-- The establishing shot for Deacon's pizza parlor has a street sign for Dayton Way, so I Googled it. It's in the heart of Beverly Hills. It's hilarious to me that Deacon could own a pizza joint in frickin Beverly Hills.

-- $Bill's excuses for Luna are something else. Don Diamont should sue for destruction of character. At least Liam got to speak for the audience as to how we feel about Bill.

-- I have no clue why Hope would go to her mother's house to flip through magazines while she's still so upset and angry with Brooke.

Que?

I think you mean what's her name? I forget too since she is so forgettable.

There are no words anymore to describe how awful this soap is. The writing is awful and repetitive. The show has totally gone off the rails.

That's her name!

Her threatening Lunatic today was laughable. This from the same girl who screamed and cried when Remy yelled Bo!

Luna like Sheila aren't a threat to anyone.

Heather Tom on Michael Fairman, discussing the details of writing/directing/acting on the March 27 episode.  It's really interesting

*standing ovation*

Brad Bell has ruined Steffy and Finn/Steffy. She treats him like a neutered dog. I'm glad the show finally had a decent guy for Steffy after the Liam torture but they went in the opposite direction to make him a doormat who barely has any agency. 

Steffy berating Hope when she fired her again was so OTT and Brooke yelling at Hope? I don't even care for Hope that much, but the writers are just piling on.

Brad Bell will not get my rage views for a while after last week.

Hahhahaha.

And the neutered dog metaphor is SPOT-on. That's how she treats him. Mm-hmm. Like a dog who she is failing to train and constantly has to correct. 

This is a man in his LATE 30s. Give me a break.

    • They aren't all bio, but I remember DD saying he treats them as if they were. He seems like a good man.
    • I thought that might be it. Thanks.
    • Ryan Quan Jamey Giddens Katie Schock Tyler Topits Fran Myers (Script Editor)
    • Rebecca Hollen's (Trish) last episode was #9702 from July 11th, 1985
    • Yeah.  As one of the biggest John and John/Marlena fans here I don't like this exit.  I know the circumstances were difficult and Drake apparently signed off on this.  I think him dying while killing Orpheus was the way to go.  There isn't a scenario I can imagine John not immediately running home to see Marlena before he helps Bo.  It's very difficult to watch his family wait for him and be so excited.   I am positive the aftermath will be great.  I just don't love the exit.
    • Wouldn't the plan have been to pair Denny and Steve for a Steve/Denny/Carrie triangle and try to recreate the Tess/Bill dynamic from their time at Love of Life? Or was it just a short term thing like her role on ATWT? Maybe Toni wasn't interested in contract gigs?
    • Gail was around months before. I think she was added by the Elmans, who introduced Scotty and David Hamillton, Lamont and Katie Corbin and Alan Quartemaine, all characters Marland worked with and developed. The Ellmans were only around for 6 weeks or so but introduced some major characters. Unlike other writers who come in and have mass cast changes, Marland worked with what was there.
    • I am not a big Anna/Duke fan, but that was an awful return.   IB/FH certainly are better together than Anna/Valentin though. I could care less about the tango.  I don't know why some actors are doing multiple performances anyhow lol.  I certainly don't need the Chase variety show hour. IIRC, Jonathon Jackson can sing just as well as JS or Bradford, but I guess Lucky and head nurse Liz aren't cool enough to get an invite.
    • Rebecca Hollen's last airdate seems to fall between July 4th, 1985 and July 15th. Reva tells Trish she's in love with Kyle and leaving HB on July 4th. The Lewises (minus Trish) go to Cross Creek to celebrate Billy's birthday (this year, other years it's in March) to "accept" Kyle as a Lewis the week of the 15th.
    • I've said this before, but I strongly suspect Carlivati would've just... brought Duke back again if he'd stayed at the show long enough. They really fúcked up Duke's return leaving him moribund and pathetic after he returned, whereas Ian Buchanan IRL is anything but. I have no real interest in another return for him but honestly Zombie Duke Round 2, with a little life in him again, could not be worse than most of Anna's dreadful pairings since, and given Tristan and Robert are clearly not an option. But I do think she should have a new, better man.
