BTG: April 2025 Discussion Thread

You know it!

There has to be some conflict in order for them to realize that they are meant to be more than booty call hook ups.

There really should have been a Dupree son to serve as a rival to Bill. If not that they should have given Naomi an older law partner or mentor who doubled as a father type figure. That would certainly aggravate Bill.

Lol. I had no doubt when I saw them.

I know, I know. But it was so unexpected. To see the inevitable cracks finally start to show. And yes, their little fight had just as much passion as their love scenes had. Which is why it probably hit so hard. Well that and the words coming out of Andre's mouth because FACTS. And love or hate Dani, it's so...hmmm true to life that someone who is so beautiful, so passionate, and have pedigree, too...sees herself as so unlovable. That really and truly resonated with me. And I'm sure anyone who has felt unloved even when they have no reason to could feel that scene. And to see someone NOT her dad or an immediate family member tell her. And yet Karla Mosley's face told the tale...she still don't believe. It just was so well-done.

I had posted "What if Naomi teams up with Bill against Mike?" but then I rewatched and caught Naomi's comment to Jacob -- that Bill must have known all along what Mike was doing, so she feels Bill is still legally responsible.

And, in fact, Bill *did* know, as evidenced by his conversation with Mike regarding Mike's reputation at Bill's firm, at other firms, and even with female courthouse staff.  So viewers now know that Bill knew all that.  But Naomi doesn't know the full extent.

Andre is too good for Dani.  She's a walking red flag that screams 'Stay away'

This is one of the rare times that I side with the husband and mistress.  

Also, I'd love if one day the show does cast Dominique Jennings in a role... and be given more freedom to act on a better written soap as opposed to Sunset Beach

Fyi:  Smitty from BTG and Nate from Y&R wore the same shirt last month:

Is he really though? His pursuit of Ashley despite her being in a committed relationship hardly makes him a good catch.

-- Dani is all over the place. She was plastered drunk the night before, and then she goes to the club and pretends she has it all together.

-- I get that -- putting on a show and all -- but why tell Hayley she needs a Plan B when she never had one? I think Dani should stay away from Hayley completely. Her talks with Hayley are embarrassing.

-- I won't defend all of Bill's cheating over the years, but I can only imagine what it would be like to be married to Tornado Dani.

-- Kind of a head-scratcher to hear Naomi practically give a pass to her cheating father while blaming Hayley so much more.

-- Andre has all of a sudden become the therapist for both Ted and Nicole, who start talking about miscarriages as soon as Andre shows up. Really?

-- Martin's booty was popping again today, but the writers need to stop giving him elevated language. I get why they're doing it, but it doesn't work with an actor who's getting comfortable but still needs more time.

-- Pamela doesn't work for me as Dani's BFF. I think Cady is here because she's a name, but flawed and messy (and also awful) Vanessa is a better fit. How is Vanessa a good BFF with Nicole? That makes no sense.

-- The Tide product placement today was good.

[Vee]

Making Vanessa Nicole's BFF was clearly a lateral shift to make room for Cady/Pamela. I'm not convinced it works either, but I do think DD has good chemistry with LB. I do think Pamela can and should have a place on the canvas, as I think her family would be far more interesting to build out than Derek and Ashley. Hopefully it will get sorted out.

[Taoboi]

It really was. I giggled.

Imagine if this son may have had a history with Hayley. That would’ve been good viewing material.

Did this person not watch today's show? LOL

 

It makes perfect sense and the limited time the show has been on the air, Vanessa's been shown to be a good friend to Nicole. Im not buying the friend chemistry with Dani and Pamela yet but revealing today that Pamela was her mentor/agent now makes why are close make sense at least. Pamela seems to be here for the mess that Dani entertains so thats another reason why Dani would like her

Is it? Thats her father and she loves him. She does not want to be mad at him or shut him out of her life but she did so out of loyalty to her mother and her own ego. Dani giving her the okay to let that go is allowing her to let her guard down.

What Hayley did was a betrayal and one that was personal. She can throw her away and not really feel compelled to give her a pass bc she isnt family and quite frankly, she probably doesnt expect the marriage to last and her to be around long term

Yes he is. He tried to kiss Ashley once and when that didnt work, he's left it alone. He's not going after her anymore and in terms of the dynamic between he and Dani, yeah he's alot better for her than she is for him. She's a hot mess with too much baggage. Outside of sex, she is of no benefit to him and is a complete liability. Whereas he has been a positive influence on and for her.

I feel like the issue is that they've obviously shoe-horned her into the show and it does come across as they're sort of making things up as they go along. I feel otherwise we should've known from the get-go that Pamela was her former agent from her modelling days; that would've also made the whole thing where she acts like her "fixer" when she broke into Bill and Hayley's house make more sense.

I hope that in the long run it'll eventually straighten itself out.
