B&B: September 2025 Discussion Thread

[bongobong]

I disagree that he was written out of character last year. He was always shown to be a compassionate people pleaser who forgives easily. Steffy for cheating on him, Li for letting his wife think he was dead for example. Yes, what Sheila did was worse, but it's not surprising that he softened towards her after her kidnapping/near death experience, then her saving his step-daughter. He did still keep her at arm's length.

As for Finn getting yelled at by hypocrites, that's par for the course on this show. When those scenes happened, it felt to me that the writing was much more sympathetic to Finn rather than those blasting him.

As much as I thought he was written too perfectly last year, at least he had some semblance of a POV, which hasn't been the case in 2025.

Bradley did the same with Luna and Zende. Zende raped Luna. How was that explained? Luna was totally rewritten and it made no sense. Such a promising character ruined.

Btw where is Zende???

Luna was definitely raped by Zende and Brad rewrote it after fan backlash. But he forgot we saw her cry alone about it. If she planned it all along why would she cry when she is alone.

I won't be surprised if he rewrites this later to make it seem like Will knew and was willingly doing it.

But we all know it was rape. Both times.

Trying to rewrite rape is disgusting.

I've noticed that B&B features Zende (and also previously Paris Buckingham) and other Black recurring and U/5 characters whenever there are fashion show episodes that the show is promoting via  promos and worldwide.
The *appearance* of diversity.
During such times, there are videos and spoiler pics and articles that seem to feature a diverse cast of Forrester employees, models, visiting fashion buyers, and fashion reporters -- most of whom aren't shown again for another year, if ever.

This is just so bizarre. Sheila using Li as a sounding board.

Ooopphh, Electra knocked the crap out of Luna. Shouldn't have done that. 

[Soapsuds]

It was the Looney Tunes hour once again. Nothing makes sense in this soap. Everything featured is bizzarre.

When is someone going to call the cops and have Luna arrested?

Hit her again! 

[ranger1rg]

I thought the same thing. 

-- Are we supposed to like Li? She's a great surgeon who brings people back from the dead but who is stupid when it comes to common sense or any other kind of sense.

-- Are we supposed to feel sorry for Sheila and her crying that Deacon might be done with her? LOL

 

Exactly, but not on this show. We have to keep Luna around so she can engage in ridiculous conversations with people who would never listen to her for one minute.

[MontyB]

As much as I hate to admit it, Luna is the only thing making me watch. 

I'm dreading Steffy's return. I'm going to be doing a lot of FF. 

All of us already know what dialog is going to be. 

[ranger1rg]

Yep, I agree with that, too. 

As laughable as it is that Luna hasn't been arrested and is still around everyone, she's the only decent thing on the entire show.

[MontyB]

Truth! 

[Taoboi]

He should had been Nick and Brooke's son, but I don't mind this either.
