If they really wanted to add some fun, they could just have had Finn pray behind everyone's backs that the "Little Puke" actually kicks it!!

 There would also be a hint of Sheila and Luna in him yet!

With that actor they have playing Finn... that could be Daphne Rose level of cringe. Hahhahaha.

[YRfan23]

Haha, all the better to imagine the mess even more!!

I tuned in at the possibility of Liam dying and chuckled at what was happening on screen. Bridget and Dr. Cunningham were so emotional about the diagnosis. I hope they care about all their patients this way. 

And I get that Steffy has to be the center of the universe per Bell decree, but why in the HIPAA is she being told about Liam's condition before him?  

[Maxim]

Can she follow Liam to the grave?! LOL. Love JMW, but Steffy is eating this show alive. Along with Brad Bell's writing of course. We need to breatheeeeeeeee and have a pause from her. Maybe just... go away for a year or two and then come back... I don't know. Bradley Bell has a Brooke-type of fixation with her... and it's just unbearable. It was similar with Brooke when she ate the show in the past. There were years where she was in almost ALL the episodes. 

No character should be ON all the time... NON-STOP. As much as you like them... you start getting tired at some point.

I used to love Steffy. It's obvious that Brad sees her as his new muse. But part of what used to make Brooke interesting was that she had Stephanie or Taylor (when properly written) as a contrast. A good hero/antihero/heroine needs a counter. Steffy's been allowed to take over the entire canvas, and no one gets to check her.

I don't even know why she's crying her eyes out over Liam. Yes, that's her baby daddy but they're not together or married. She's married to Finn who she treats worse than a stray dog. 

I doubt the show will improve once the character is written off for JMW's maternity leave. But even just a week without Steffy's smug face will be glorious.

I think he's fixated. He is copy-pasting past Stephanie characteristics on her. And that's what makes this NEW Steffy unbearable. She wasn't like that. She was more believable when she was the new generation troublemaker ala Brooke. Bradley is obsessed with making THE MORALIST Steffy happen, but it's not working. He's trying and trying and trying... but we are not buying. I am shocked when her fans start slut-shame other girls on the show. They call Hope a ho... but Steffy has been with more men than Hope... And they constantly drag the Logans... forgetting what Steffy did in her first 10-15 years on the show.

I'm starting to believe a lot of these Steffy fans are people who've been watching the last few years only and have no idea what they are talking about.

 

[I Am A Swede]

That's probably not far from the truth.

[bongobong]

Don't forget Finn divulging Liam's private medical information to his ex-wife!

[Fevuh]

Reminder as everyone dances on Liam’s grave - Scott kind of really was the best male actor on the show.  I mean - there’s TK but I’ve never seen it on this show, and I know he’s been praised as being great - I just haven’t seen it here.  
 

After today, hopefully he dies right there in his daughter’s bed and bring on the revelation of not only Steffy bringing Daphne to town to wreck her life with Carter, now it will look like they purposefully left Hope out of Liam’s death.  Kelly gets the last moments of her Dad’s life but Beth - the stolen bought Taylor baby gets zero.  
 

This does give another good reason for the Logans to fully despise Steffy. 
 

Note to wardrobe / make sure socks are clean.

Whaaaat? Is he dying really?!!!

Some tell me please. I missed today.

-- BOLD thinks "fashion show" means they should wheel a couple racks of dresses into Eric's geriatric-smelling office so he can "tweak" the designs right before the runway show.

-- Meanwhile, They've given up on Hiding JMW's pregnancy. She's wearing the biggest sweatshirt I've ever seen.

-- In the past few shows, we've been told 157,482 times that Liam is a good dad.

-- Aaaaaaand more old footage from a remote to remind us what this show used to be.

Seems to be a split between those who think Liam is dying and those who don't.

I personally don't think Brad Bell will do it.

[edgeofnik]

Steffy being so invested in Liam is simply laying the foundation for Steffy going with Liam to Europe for an experimental treatment during her leave. 

Hopefully, they don't ask Taylor for advice on European doctors - you know the ones who told her she was dying....

The best thing that could happen to Waffles is that this brain mass allows Brad to write Liam as a villain - aka like $B. It's long overdue. SC has been given such awful material. He deserves better.

A while ago, we got a glimpse of what looked like could be Bad Liam. Of course, that lasted about a week and they dropped it. I fully agree that Clifton has been getting crap to play.

[Maxim]

AMEN. That could have been a different take. Something new for him to play.
