B&B: April 2025 Discussion Thread

[Fevuh]

I do not remember him being bad at all back then.  Now he’s awful.  
 

Everyone automatically forgiving and falling over Carter while they vilify Hope is so badly done.  They’ve waited too late to care whether she ever lashes out at all.  I saw the day Liam hit his s head and I saw the weird encounters with Daphne sniffing and slinking around - by now we are supposed to believe that Eric, Ridge, Steffy - all knew about and engineered Daphne or knew about it 100% and none of them mentioned it to or told anyone??? On this show?  No one - even the old standard Charlie “heard” by now is unrealistic even among unrealistic.  
 

Daphne is worse than “cigarettes cigarillos” May on Guiding Light.

Hold up! Cassandra Creech still in town??

-- Are we supposed to be afraid of Sheila when she squints and threatens to snap Popp ylike a twig?

-- Hearing Sheila tell Poppy she's a terrible mother was hilarious.

-- Q: Who did Brooke's hair today? A: No one.   I guess she's too busy saying Ridge is the love of her life to pick up a brush.

-- Meanwhile, Electra was so overstyled it was crazy. The continuity from Friday was way off. On Friday, Electra hurriedly left the Forrester office when she told Will she had a meeting after getting a text. Luna arrived with the pizza seconds later.

     Today, Luna and Will are still talking but Electra is at home relaxing with a sketch pad and complaining that she doesn't want to give it up to Will yet.

-- Where is Remy? Is Brad Bell bored with him already?

4-9

 

Uhhh...hmmm.

 

I can't say it was bad, but I can't say that it was good either. It just feels like a lot is happening. But waiting for something to stick.

 

WHAT I LIKED

 

DEACON V CARTER. I can't say that I hated it. While it did seem abrupt for Deacon to be there, it's always a moment when a battle looks real which it looked like it was. Also...loved what Daphne had on. Though she really should have been quiet. 

 

FINN/BILL. I can't help it. They don't have enough scenes and I've enjoyed them being around each other since Sinn's reunion after Sheila 'killed' him. So good to have a scene even if it's just Finn picking on him about Luna. Though it's funny all these characters are at the hospital and don't know that Steffy is there and Liam is hurt.

 

SHE'S STARTING...and by she I meant SHEILA. Now that she has a grandchild, there she goes again scheming. But Sheila is at her best when she's scheming. I'm only worried Brad will write her into a corner again.

 

WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE

 

HEFFA, WHY YOU CARE? And by heffa, I mean Brooke. She's being all upset about Hope when she's the one that drove her away. I was surprised Hope even came by the house and even held a conversation with her.  Right now, there's just too much tension there.

 

LIAM. Outside of seeing Grace still in town, I suuure didn't care for him almost dying. Is this how they are planning to write out Steffy when JMW goes on her next maternity leave? I hope not. They are better off trying Liam with Ivy again...except now with Liam and Bill on the outs, he might not want his brother around Bill which would cause tension for Ivy and Electra. 

 

SPEAKING OF GRACE...I guess BTG has spoiled me cuz that wig...chiiiiild. But also...she's too good an actress to be just a typical cameo doctor.

LMAO Brooke Logan, telling someone to have class and to respect relationships

the jokes write themselves

 

That fight with The Psycho and the Groomer was beyond stupid

I heard Katie and Brooke today talking about how to get Ridge back - basically.  Turned that right off to CNN for 1/2 hour.  So demeaning - Ridge needs a shave and a bath after 10 years. 

[ranger1rg]

Embarrassing, starting with that poorly-directed slap. The fight was so paint-by-numbers -- with no laughs, no fear, no nothing.

 

Demeaning, for sure. Sad that Heather Tom has to fill her episode guarantee this way.

All I could do was look at Katie's shiny face and 5-foot long hair extensions.

 

[ReddFoxx]

I came to this thread to talk about this because it really was hilarious for her to say that. It's understandable she wants to stand up for her daughter but that was not something she should say with a straight face. Class has never been her strong suit.

[I Am A Swede]

 

I love Brooke dearly, but self-awareness has never been one of her strong suits.

(Although to be fair, that is a character flaw she shares with most of the cast of B&B)

[dragonflies]

What Brad Bell has done to Sheila is beyond embarrassing. Ruined a once great villainess

[ranger1rg]

That lingerie outfit they put on Luna to entice Will -- who decided that granny panties would be the way to go?

 

[dragonflies]

LOL! I don't know how KKL said that with a straight face. Brooke can't even respect Ridge and Taylor's relationship and she sure as heck didn't do much to stop Hope from trying to interfere in Steffy and Finn's.

[dragonflies]

WTH WAS that?? 

[Fevuh]

Oh it was so far gone 10 plots ago. She is a cartoon with the plastic mask as if someone would not have known it was her; Sheila coming back for Eric vs. Quinn - both villainous gone too far; their redemptions are both 5 minute jobs, and onward; this show is as bad as DAYS got.  

[dragonflies]

I don't get why they don't put Sheila in Brooke's orbit for a change, let her obsess over her former BFF
