B&B: October 2025 Discussion Thread

For real!!

I mean, Katherine Kelly Lang's bra/bodysuit was visible, and it should not be. Not to mention, the way in which they keep dressing Rebecca Budig is laughable, at best.

This episode hit the trifecta of the classic Bill Bell-written Taylor Hayes. She: 1) Divulged information on another patient's treatment 2) Treated someone she has a personal relationship with & 3) flirted with Brooke's sloppy seconds. 

I've come around, I'm enjoying Budig in the role.

The show feels different being at the new studio, more elevated. Sure the writing is sh*t but overall though the move was beneficial

I do love Deke so far and Deacon being mad that Sheila supported her mini me all the while badgered Steffy and Finn non stop to forgive Sheila for shooting them

 

[Maxim]

Deke has been very bland and forgettable... like a male Electra. That psycho stalker sure has a type. The actor? Meh. Average. But too good for this show.

Never forget that... Bradley Bell IS SIMPLY INCAPABLE of crafting new characters anymore. I fully expect Deke to be written off in a couple of months. Perhaps a ridiculous plot with him and the psycho will be tossed in here and there. We'll see. But let's be real, this was all orchestrated so Bold can have the 10 news articles about how they’re so progressive... a pro-gay show now. LOL Just wait, in a year it’ll be about Ridge dumping Brooke because she clogged the toilet, and he just can’t get over it. Hashtag-trash.

-- Those 3 gowns that Hope trotted out had me LMAO!

-- I thought the 3rd one (on the right) was the worst. It looked like Grandma had a crafts project and had her glue gun ready to go!

-- Also had to laugh when Hope threw her arms around Deke as he walked in -- as if she didn't just see him yesterday.

-- Ridge sees Deke for the first time in years and decides the first thing he'll say is to throw shade at Deacon? Ridge continues to be trash.

-- Il Giardino, like every set, is improved, although I do think that open air/sky backdrop needs work or needs to be changed occasionally. Is cloud cover always the exact same in L.A. every day?

-- Also, I am CRYING

 that in 3 days, Deacon went from feeling perfectly fine about his marriage to Sheila to asking a psychiatrist "Should I end my marriage?" and then flirting blatantly with said psychiatrist.

[Soapsuds]

The squinting has returned as well.

[dragonflies]

I wish I could feel sorry for Deacon lol! He knew what he married 

[Maxim]

I pity Taylor. She went from... stalking her ex and agreeing to be his second choice... to now... getting entangled with a serial killer's husband. You could almost see it... that when Sheila starts tormenting her... (the scenes with Kimberlin Brown overacting and saying "STAY AWAY FROM HIM. STAY AWAY FROM MY HUSBAND.")

Ridge would have to run to rescue her... which would put Bridge in turmoil again.

Brad, you are predictable hon. 

[dragonflies]

If the villain's start acting like villain's again I say about gosh dang time

So over Saint Sheila, it doesn't work for the character at all. 

What was with the outfit they had on Hope today? Is AN pregnant, cause they usually dress women in baggy clothes like that when pregnant(JMW for example)

[dragonflies]

Their costume design person is awful, they've suffered since Jeresa jumped ship

 Sheila will lose another toe or two when she goes after Deacon and Taylor.

[Maxim]

I think Taylor might die for the 4th time instead. LOL. Then we'll wait for the next recast.
