B&B: April 2025 Discussion Thread

[CrazySexyQ]

SC is a great actor who has been given awful material. He could be written as Bill's successor. But Bill doesn't even act like himself anymore. The show is stuck with making all of its leads Ridge-like.

I totally feel like Liam is played out a million times over, but I don't trust BB to really pull the plug on him. After him, my next wish would be for Ridge to die. He's grown to be such an insufferable a-hole.

If this is the end for Scott Clifton on this show - and I don't buy it, but for the sake of argument - I'd love to see him return as Dillon on General Hospital, especially since his mom, Tracy, is still around, and his half-brother, Ned.

Is there anyone on B&B that haven't?

I felt that as soon as I posted about Scott Clifton getting crap to play. Of course, you're right -- I just think in a sea of crap, no one's getting more or worse than SC.

Oh, B&B...lol. 

 

I'm not feeling this Liam dying storyline. The way I rolled my eyes as he tried to get out of bed while Bridget and Grace tried to keep him there. And the secrecy. That said...I did enjoy the Friday coda with Steffy finding out about him dying from Finn as Liam danced with Kelly. But I also enjoyed the look on Bridget's face when Steffy talked to Liam about Luna being Finn's daughter.

 

We know I love seeing Li. I just wish SHE had been the one to have a catfight with Sheila. I know, I know...still looking forward to their next catfight. I don't see any reason she's not in this whole mess.

 

Hehe at Sheila and Luna as this scheme team. 

 

Overall, the week started strong, but (good coda aside) ended on a whimper.

Even when he is dying (if he is) Liam is sooo unsufferable. Sorry, not sorry. I know SC is a good actor, but that's completely lost in Bold. Brad Bell can't work with talented people at this stage of the game. Years ago they could help elevate the material... but circa 2025 - it just doesn't work anymore. The material is so bad that EVEN God himself can't elevate it.

FIX IT JESUS!!! lol.

[Fevuh]

I think I’m wrong now. He’s gonna live. 
 

Plot device to begin HINN. Sorry @Maxim

Yeah, I'm watching it now and Clifton cannot elevate trash material. This is bad.

After Steffy cries and sobs for an interminable amount of time, Liam says "I'm not dying! They can do anything nowadays!" while smiling. Jesus, it's just all so awful.

And don't get me started on that knit cap on his head.

 

They'll probably do something like have Steffy wake him to Europe for some "miracle treatment" when JMW goes on her 74th maternity leave.

LOL I was thinking that day that Liam is going to die, we think Liam is dead for a few weeks, and then we get a “shocking” twist that Finn is keeping Liam alive comatose in his basement doing some “experimental” medicine or something.

I love these Forrester fashion shows because they're so eye-rolling.

-- There's Eric touching the showstopper while he says he's tweaking it.

-- There's Ridge announcing Eric as the heart and soul of the company.

-- There's the table in the dressing room to display the perfume and jewelry, for no apparent reason.

-- There's Christine dropping by because every fashion show needs a useless cameo.

-- There's more useless cameos -- Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, showing us they have no acting skills at all.

-- There's Carter beaming because Ridge -- his brother -- mentioned his name.

-- There's Taylor backstage with nothing to do, so they have her walk into other people. Too bad Taylor forgot to do her hair before leaving the house.

-- There's the Forrester runway that's so short it's hilarious.

-- There's the blonde model who sat in the background for the entire show while the makeup artist dabbed at her eyes.

-- There's Brooke getting dolled up by Katie and Donna, of all people -- while the fashion show is in full swing -- for the "revamped showstopper."

-- There's Eric again, saying he likes Taylor but telling Brooke she'll always be the love of his life and his Logan.

-- There are the runway dresses that are nothing special and look like prom gowns off a rack at Kohls.

-- There's the old door locked from the inside to leave us with a ridiculous cliffhanger.

This list is everything we have all been thinking since the start of the show.  Can’t they have a runway set?  The touch ups and running around with jewelry cracks me up every time.  
 

I only saw the locked door part but everything you described is every fashion show.  And definitely Jovani pageant gowns usually.
