B&B: September 2025 Discussion Thread 

29 days until something exciting happens on this soap. 💙

Hmm. Let's see Electra gets pregnant with Will's baby. Lunacy doesn't, but Plan B is Remy. 

It's a dark stormy night with a full moon: Electra and Lunacy give birth/switch. Electra looks like she cheated with Remy and Will professes his love to Lunacy and *their* baby. 

It's a variation of Sheila's Y&R switch 35 years later. They might as well go there at this point. 

It's hard to move past the fact Luna raped Will, so him and Electra finally getting together just seems ick to me. 

I hope they are not wasting MA return to just prop up Ridge & Taylor and to threaten Brooke. I want to see him with Hope.

I hate the character of Daphne and I was hoping she was gone for good. I don't want Carter with her at all. Why not have Carter & Taylor hook up? 😳😳😳

Omg! Ridge would completely lose it 🤣

KKL and TK must be elated they never have to rehearse their lines. They've been repeating the same thing for years. Today was no different. Brooke begging and Ridge staring into space while the show fades to commercial. 

Welcome back, Thomas! 😍

That’s about all I got for this 😂😂😂

This show could have been filled with wonderful conflict is Bradley would have just followed his father's blueprint. Granted it was  tragic move, but killing off Phoebe should have been used in the same way as the death of Phillip Chancellor...the catalyst to ignite a decades long feud, between Steffy and Rick, carrying conflict into the next generation, especially since everyone knew Susan Flannery's retirement would be drawing near at the time it happened. Instead, they had Steffy bed hopping with every jerk that came along..... and making a fool of herself over the man that caused her sisters' death.

I stumbled upon a new episode yesterday and for a moment I thought I was watching an old stream from years ago. It is THAT repetitive, I swear I've seen all of this before. 

IMO this absurd animosity between Thomas and Brooke... is a facade that hides extreme sexual tension. If we go back in time... Thomas used to stalk Brooke and kiss her while she was asleep. He was such a hardcore perv and Thank God they didn't go there back in the day. But there is no way we can ignore the years where Thomas was obsessed with her. Now he hates her... hate and obsession are most always the same thing.  

Fresh thoughts from KKL. She plans to stay till the end.  

 

I guess a paycheck is a paycheck..... 

If acting is her passion, as she says, then surely it must be frustrating to be so underchallenged. I'm sure she can play what she's given in her sleep by this stage. It's like the character is stuck on "repeat".

Exactly! You would think after almost 40years she'd want better for Brooke like JMW did for Steffy but sadly no, she pushes that dusty triangle and chemistry free Broken Bridge instead of advocating for her character

 

I also want to add if Brooke is so damn popular, then why the heck does she require so much propping from Katie, Eric, Donna, Will, etc??? Popular characters don't require daily propping 

I'm going to say this again, even though I feel like I'm beating a dead horse. We have no way of knowing what KKL/Brooke advocates or not for her character. We can't expect her to bash her boss in public too. Sorry, but we just can't. We don't know what she says or does behind the scenes. One thing we know... is that she hasn't said 1 negative word about anyone in the show for so many years... and yet people find reasons to bash her and make-up stories how she is to blame for this or that. And I think that says more about the people doing that and not about her. KKL is incredibly popular overseas, she is the face of international brands and gets invitations to visit European capitals, film festivals and events every single month. She is basically a Goddess in Italy, trust me I know, since I have Italian friends. At this point I'm grateful that she is going to continue being with us. She doesn't owe us that either, she could easily retire and live off her iconic status in Europe. But she doesn't, she still goes to work and does the best she can with what she's given.

Give the woman a break.

And didn't that work out splendidly...     JMW may not be stuck in the triangle with Hope and Liam anymore, but her stories are still just as repetitive as before. Steffy argues with Finn about one of his crazy relatives, something happens and Steffy takes off to parts unknown to get over it. She returns and the whole cycle begins again.

And we don't know what goes on behind the scenes, what KKL wants or doesn't want for her character or what she does about it. She "pushes" the triangle because it's part of her job to do promotion for the show, and maybe she feels, like Susan Flannery did from what I've heard, that it's not her job to write the show but to act out what she's given
