Can I say that I loved that Daphne got the Friday cliffhanger coda? Love it. Loved how she looked. The camera angles through the door. The music. Classic soap. Perfection!

 

That said...overall, I guess it was a good week. It went from a lot of things going on, waiting to see if anything sticks to a lot of things going on, but feeling more intrigued by it. Even if Friday was full of the usual B&B camp elements. Which didn't bother me cuz I'm used to eye rolling over it.

 

Like Brooke in her lingerie...was that even Ridge's office...and of course Taylee sees her. And I will give Taylee this...I was eye-rolling right alongside her. Because it is soooooooo Brooke. I'm not sure if I like Carter encouraging Brooke to be with Ridge, but he didn't say anything that was not true. Meanwhile, there was Taylee talking to Daphne about the silliness of Brooke. It did remind me that we are overdue another Steffy/Daphne scene. Since they are good friends, I really wouldn't mind that still going. 

 

Like Sheila, Luna, and the pizza. Heck, I was shocked it was a pizza ordered by ZENDE. And I wondered if Luna would even see Zende since I remember how triggered a lot of people get here when they are in scenes together. Thankfully, that did not happen. Meanwhile, she still acted like Luna in disguise so how dumb are folk to not realize that was her? Still...only Silk Press Sheila would think to go in in a disguise so I giggled as I eyerolled.

 

So...are they really going to kill Liam? Cuz it makes me think of how I feel about Sonny and his heart storyline aka DIE LIAM DIE.

 

Uh oh. Trouble in paradise for Will and Electra. Perhaps Sheila is not wrong when she was talking to Luna about how men are so easy. Well...*sips*

 

I loved that the back half of the week Daphne has been slowly tempting Carter. Classic vixen. And the coda really took my breath away. 

 

How funny. Y&R started off good last week, got great, and ended in a whimper. Meanwhile, B&B was the reverse.

This show was playing earlier this week while I waited for BTG. Taylor and Brooke were fighting about Ridge. OMG, really? Its been like 35 years and both have become grandmothers multiple times over. I cant believe either woman wold still see him as a prize with all his pingponging back and forth between them

The Sheila/Poppy scenes were illogical. The only reason Sheila would turn on Poppy is simply because Poppy will be eliminated and they need more suspects. Sheila passing judgment on anyone is just dumb and isn't true to character at all.

Sheila and Poppy as outcast allies would be interesting. Sheila understanding why Poppy kept the Lunacy secret because it protected Finn, allowed him to go to medical school, etc. Poppy could lean on Sheila to help her with Luna, even though she's still bitter about being framed for the two deaths. 

Poppy/Sheila united front against Li and Steffy! And Sheila could totally manipulate Poppy as a way to get Finn back into her orbit, which is Sheila's real goal.

-- I see Liam got the typical Bold "illness/diagnosis." We have no idea what's wrong. We hear he's getting better, but have no idea what that means. I have no idea why Bridget is typing on that computer in Liam's hospital room.

-- Sheila tells Luna "You are good." I guess that means people who aren't killers are "great."

-- Glad to hear Finn tell Sheila at the end of the show that he didn't want to be a part of Luna's life. I'm sure that will go away tomorrow.

And...where is Luna living and off of what money? Is Bill supporting her? None of it makes sense.

I don't think you could get a more accurate description of B&B than that!  

Yeah... Liam will be perfectly fine by Summertime

I watched today's episode - does Brad Bell actually have the guts to write out Scott Clifton? It would be a good decision, so I doubt it.

-- This daddy/daughter stuff is so bad. BOLD doesn't care about kids unless they need to write contrived scenes that say "These characters love their children more than life!"

-- Finn spends all his time in his office while Bridget and  (apparently) Liam's personal physician are in his room 24/7. Wonder who covers the rest of the hospital.

-- Had to LOL at the previews for next week. After an entire half hour about Liam's inoperable brain tumor, it was all "Next week, a BOLD fashion show!!!" 😂

Lord...the dialogue on this show. For all the good dialogue in the Poppy/Sheila catfight, there was the silliness of it in the Will/Luna and Daphne/Carter scenes. And Brooke talking about having class? GIRL, BYE. lol.

 

I don't know. I felt that having Poppy and Sheila getting closer before she found out Finn was Luna's father was obvious set-up for this moment. And what was Poppy thinking? It's SHEILA. LOL. And she gave fair warning and Poppy had to slap her twice. smh. And other than the ending with a cake fight, it was giving. So sad it went silly at the end. 

 

Ugh. Shut up, Taylee. It almost makes me want Brooke to take Ridge back out of spite. That said...I didn't like Brooke eavesdropping and then thought she was going to confront Daphne. GIRL, BYE. 

 

Will/Electra was just typical B&B silliness. And all I could think was that either Will is going to get drugged. Or he will fall for Luna's wiles. 

 

But...so far, so good.

If this happens... I will take everything bad I said about him (Bradley) in the past 2 years BACK. I'll forgive him for everything. Even for Sheila's missing toe. I want to see a tombstone with Liam's name on it! No, correction... I want to see ashes spilt over a swamp. I don't want to have even a slight chance of him coming back. Kill him with fire. And let us all forget that the years 2010-2025 even existed.

I don't usually like to cross post, as it borders on spam, but just in case some don't visit the Days thread, the Hollywood Graveyard channel on YouTube uploaded a new installment today. And the second grave visited in the video, right after Bob Barker, is Joe Mascolo, who played Massimo on B&B. I tried to mark the segment to around where his segment begins, at 2:44. But if it doesn't, just go to that point (or, hey, feel free to watch it all if you want to!):

 

The death of Liam would actually make me start watching again lol but only if if I knew Liam’s was permanent and going to take.

 Bridget's reaction to Liam's "inoperable brain tumor" had me in stitches.

Not only was it fun watching Ashley Jones (try to) emote with a face that doesn't move, but seeing a doctor react to a tumor as she did was hysterical! "IT'S JUST NOT FAIR!!!" Bridget cried as she moaned and wailed about Liam's impending death.

Of course, Finn also pulled the "It's not fair!" card. Another clueless doctor.

I just can't with this show.

LOL... just reading your impression and I'm in stitches without even watching it.
