It is.

 Reminds me of how you stayed with AW till the last very bitter end... as you regularly put it. That's us... soap fans. We are one of the most determined to not let go creatures on the planet. They should study us. 

Poor KKL is being put under so much brutal expectations. That's just not right. You can't de-age physically a character, but still PRETEND like the character is in her 60s... given birth to a 40 year old daughter... while keeping the OG Brooke the same. I think it's tacky. If this was a younger woman-new character competing with Brooke... it would have been another story... BUT TO pretend that she's Brooke's age... is just... sad to me. KKL still manages to look decades younger, but that is just sick to expect her to maintain this forever. Bradley Bell is doing just that. You can't be in your mid 30s till you are 80.

Great news. Despite its flaws, B&B is a fun distraction you can watch a few times a week. Love that it kept its half-hour format all these years. Who knows if it would still be on if it went to 1 hour like it was rumoured have to in the mid-90s.

Maybe Brad is like Ken Corday where he feels an honor and a responsibility to carry on a family legacy but he really doesn't have the passion or the talent to see it through.

exactly, I'm only supporting this for the sake of keeping the genre alive. Otherwise B&B is well overdue for cancellation based on writing.

For the love of God, get rid of Brad Bell, bring in a new writing regime, and remove Liam, Hope, Steffy as core characters. Please find something else for Brooke, Taylor and Ridge to do other than an endless triad. 

The sad part is a 30 minute episode of B&B --as trash as it is -- wi keep me awake longer than a full hour of Y&R. The latter is so slow and dry.

    • Yeah. I wasn't feeling it either. If it was meant to be a chem test, it didn't work. I don't think so. Because I think Neil and Liz moved into that house after Stefano "died", and Neil lived there until he went to go see his patients and never came back

    • Canada aired a repeat today Tues. Nov. 18. So after being a day ahead for the past week, they will now be back in sync with U.S.
    • I was really starting to enjoy it, but after Anspach, Shelton and Keane left, it got a bit blah to watch. Jane Russell was great as Rose, Buddy Ebsen as Toat was interesting as well.  If a second season were in the cards, I would have signed  Karen Carlson on to a contract and cast a couple more women as regulars. The cowboy aspect could continue. Sam Elliott, as always, was fantastic,  The camaraderie between Roy and Quisto was really good as well. Cybill... she was sex on a stick and unapologetic.   Poor Robin Wright barely lasted five minutes, though, before being raped and murdered.
    • I love it that we've gone from daylight to dark -- Luna's even returned to work -- but Steffy is still sitting next to shirtless Finn on the sofa.

    • Is the current DiMera mansion the same mansion Stefano moved into around 1983?  I remember that house was out near a lake, and not far from Doug Williams' night club.  In fact, there was a tunnel connecting Doug's Place to the DiMera mansion.  If it supposed to be the same house, I'm fairly sure it is not the same set.  But I'm aware sometimes soap opera sets change without any explanation   
    • Amazing work @slick jones I remember watching and enjoying Yellow Rose but losing interest once they went to self contained episodes, Interestingly that's the opposite of what Dallas, KL and FC did. So maybe YR should have been more episodic at first and then go to a fully fledged serial. But really the timeslot was the problem -Sat @10 was not the spot for a serial. And Rounders turned out to be a poor lead in. Maybe 9-11 Tues following A Team would have helped.  
    • LOL!!! He looks like he is reacting as if Luna just passed bad gas or something. 
    • Doug Marland came on board shortly before Gloria Monty, I believe. Jackie Smith was in charge of ABC daytime at that point. All of the characters in place were not his creations. Alan was created by Irving and Tex Ellman who wrote the hurricane story a few months before and brought in Alan, Scotty, David Hamilton, Dorrie and Lisa/Lana. His first character was  Bobbie in Jan 78. Apart from wrapping up the Lan/Lisa story he pretty much kept all the stories going just adding new elements.
    • She is 29... she's inching closer, and we know how important age is on soaps.
