Members Vanguardian53 Posted Saturday at 08:48 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 08:48 PM (edited) A waste of time means thinking that a select people in the audience wants the show to fail. It's the showrunners who have to get their act together and continously sell their product.

Members dragonflies Posted Saturday at 08:56 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 08:56 PM MVJ does look up to Bell and wrote for BOLD so in some aspects it makes sense Plus some of the stuff she wrote on BOLD I didn't care much for TBH 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted Saturday at 09:01 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 09:01 PM (edited) Deflection. He's been saying for months the show is gutter trash designed to demean people of color because it didn't use his fanfiction and he gets insecure when people mention that he's never going to be on the team. It is something where I maybe hope the Bob Guza mindset wins out on some execution points. Maybe it works for the show's new audience that may need constant reminders, or for the CBS loyalists, I don't know. Recapping plot will always be a part of daily soap opera. It's how you do it that is the issue, and I have never been a fan of the B&B model which thus far BTG is heavily adopting for that kind of material. I think MVJ needs to be drawing much more from her GH years for this stuff but whatever its current woes B&B still gets those location remotes and had a very strong international audience for many years, so I could be wrong.

Members Taoboi Posted Saturday at 09:26 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 09:26 PM Have I mentioned how much I love Caroline? lol. Such a sucker for a good henchwoman. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted Saturday at 09:26 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 09:26 PM Yes, I meant Andre. I've made this kind of mistake 3 times in the past few weeks, and I have to slow down and proofread before hitting submit. Sorry, that makes no sense unless you're going to call everything we post "a waste of time." We all know the showrunners have to give us a product to applaud, and continuously. But the truth is that a few people here HAVE been calling for the show to fail since the beginning -- and there's nothing wrong with pointing that out. It's not a waste of time. We've been reading your posts on The BTG threads for months. You have a track record, and we know where you stand. Sure seems like deflection to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted Saturday at 09:40 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 09:40 PM I'd say just give yourself a break. Typos, happen all the time, to everyone. Autocorrect? Dam* thing creates unintentionally funny stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted Saturday at 09:50 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 09:50 PM Mm-hmm... I just don't want to see in the future... normal excited fans critiquing... being mixed up with that other thing that I don't even want to comment about, since I am not giving attention seekers - attention. People have a right to critique without feeling like they are doing anything wrong. There is nothing wrong in being honest. Quite frankly... I prefer honesty than being fake-happy about everything. I'm not that girl. Nothing wrong with being that girl. I personally am not. I've been a cheerleader for BTG, but I am also not blind or deaf... So... I'm keeping optimistic and can't wait for the show to really rock my world. Some of the stories have amaaaazing potential. Just give Anita, Nicole or Leslie good dialogue... And I'm good to go.

Members Maxim Posted Saturday at 10:14 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 10:14 PM And we... Bold fans... have some sort of PTSD when it comes to feeling Bradley Bell-isms in anything else... I start really freaking out. We are traumatized (by bad writing) birds. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MontyB Posted Saturday at 10:50 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 10:50 PM (edited) That part and the negativity is reminding me of why I stopped coming to this forum years ago. .........but I digress. The show is barely a month old and there are growing pains. There is some great constructive criticism here along with many dumb ass frivolous complaints. It is what it is, but so far I'm enjoying the show. Oh yeah, they could really work on the editing and fade out. It's jarring at times. Yes!! I love her!

Members Liberty City Posted Saturday at 10:52 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 10:52 PM Mm-hmmm. I've loved Caroline since the premiere. If it'd been me, I would've had Derek as recurring and Caroline as contract. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MontyB Posted Saturday at 10:52 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 10:52 PM It's really weird. Great point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted Saturday at 10:54 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 10:54 PM Or because we didn't booty-lick their videos where they refer to Michele Val Jean in a derogatory way. And it would have made sense based on premiere week alone; Caroline appeared in every single episode that week, while Derek only appeared in two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Contessa Donatella Posted Saturday at 11:58 PM Members Share Posted Saturday at 11:58 PM Yabbut you're talking about someone who created a new account to slip out of Ignore files. Like it's a big deal to put the new account on Ignore, too, right? GMAB. But, Derek, to me was a problem from jump & still is one. I've seen zero improvement & they added maybe he is photophobic or photo-averse but if he is then why did he agree .... and, of course it just doesn't fit because firemen are always supposed to be Please register in order to view this content which he definitely is not, plus during the somewhat odd documentary he had trouble with basic Q&A. So, it's like what in heck is going on with that character but he's not interesting enough to care. I figure there might be hope for Martin. If not, no big deal. However, I am very concerned that Smitty, when he found out what Martin had said to a potential employer said that he shouldn't have done that & then smiled. NO! Smitty should have been furious. But, I thought they were good with their kids. I mean talking to them & interrogating them. Last but not least I like Andre with Dani & see no need for some questionable flirtation with Ashley. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
