B&B: July 2026 Discussion Thread

No, Brooke, you should be ashamed of yourself and your behaviour. Acting like a little girl, and I've known plenty of little girls who acted more mature and respectable than you have. It's not about you, you frozen-faced b*tch. Your destruction-of-property tantrum is just ridiculous. Be ashamed. Katie did not ruin anything; if you, Eric and Ridge are that confident in the couture line, then it shouldn't be a problem launching it. Yes, Hope for the Future may have been going into production tomorrow, but she's been in production of Hope by Logan this whole time. Think about it. Brooke doesn't want to be touched...? But she keeps touching Katie by slapping her repeatedly in the damn face. And resorts to assault by pushing Katie. Gross behaviour. Absolutely gross. Disgusting hypocrite. How anyone could actually side with Brooke makes me question one's mindset and just how... askew they must be.

I am loving how Heather Tom is styled; however, I would love to see her with a Michelle Visage-inspired grey colour in her hair. I think it'd be such a defining statement, and I know Tom would rock it. Plus, she is acting Katherine Kelly Lang out of the water (which is not difficult to do).

So, Hope and Liam are likely going to move out of Brooke's home and into Bill and Katie's? That is an interesting turn of events. Although, it's a much nicer home. But know what would be amazing to have? Access to Bill Snr's original penthouse! That's what should be in use!

I know everyone but Katie is in her office, but why wasn't Deke included? I'd love to see him share his moment of celebration with Deacon. That's missing.

I didn't like Katie trying to make up with Brooke that easily.

I'm sure Brooke would've forgiven Katie had she had a dick between her legs.

Brooke is one dumb delusional slut.

For the love of God no one cares about Electra.

New RJ sucks. Previous RJ was better.

Ridge is a loser prick.

Why oh why are the writers making Katie even slightly conciliatory to Brooke? Katie doesn't owe Brooke anything!

Why do they keep insisting on rewriting what Eric did? He willingly sought out working for Logan when Ridge retired him!

Ridge is so unlikable and pompous.

I've been happy with the outrageous campiness of this show, but that really bothered me. Why did we AGAIN get a scene where Katie grovels to Brooke -- especially when Brooke is such a total bitch??? It's sickening.

-- There's no excuse for Deke's absence from this episode. Just tells me they're not invested in the character.

-- Instead, we get Shauna, who apparently created an entire jewelry line for Logan in 2 days.

-- Canceling the FC fashion show is a good idea? Won't that announce to everyone that Forrester is afraid of competition? Imagine running a company based on what another (and new) fashion line does.

-- Everything Electra is SO bad and SO fukcing hilarious 😂 The girl is in tears because another company has a damn diamond that Wyatt carries around in his pocket. Please, God, PLEASE tell me the writers know this is all ridiculous camp.

-- I need Hope to have a backbone tomorrow instead of doing her usual worried and confused look.

Brooke is way off the rails and is having serious meltdown. Her about to fight Katie was unhinged.

Agreed, with everybody that these last few episodes have been good. I just really, really hope that this isn't all ruined by that plot driven, formulaic B&B style. I remember saying that Hope would be back at Forrester by the end of the summer lol so we'll see.

As for Electra, I usually love it, on soaps, when the action in one storyline pushes along the action in another, but yeah she was a real pain in the ass today 😂

Katie needs to bish slap Brooke into next week, slap the sl&t out of her

Electricity is annoying as heck. Why does Will owe her secret's from where he works?? WTH??

Electra has never really spoken to me as a character. She's more of a "type" than a character. I wish the show had a fiery Latina (it is LA after all!) trying to claw her way to the top and in a triangle with Will and RJ instead.

Electra has no personality. She bores me to tears.

The American soaps unfortunately don't know how to write for a fiery Latina.

@Soapsuds 1000%. Why is there no smart writing.

example: Brooke did you or did you not just go to Ridge asking to be Co CEO because Steffy is somewhat incompetent when it comes to managing relationships? Eric was tossed for retirement, Katie already left because Forrester put PR to the side, HFTF has been backburnered so many times that Steffy would NEVER allow Hope to have any kind of leading role - so please stop and shut up. I’m tired of hearing about how I was the friendless girl in the attic. I haven’t been that girl for decades but you have proven repeatedly you will get on your back when you want something - how dare you talk to me about going after MONEY.

Eric - I would have no idea what to say - his memory is about 10 seconds at this point. You had choices about retiring or not and chose work - AT LOGAN. Now you say it was a mistake so you go back to YOUR company and at 90 years old cannot step out of the spotlight and let a younger person rise because you’re SELFISH.

Oh I could go on for pages. How does someone wearing a diamond morph into “and God, poor Electra saw the Hope for the Future Diamond!” GASP! Well there’s only one and they’re not selling it, so - so WHAT!? Will owes nothing to Forrester and above all -

why did anyone need to keep any secret up to the point of the show? Tell everyone the night before; the show still happens the next day as planned and the effect is the same. Dumb.

Electra is as annoying as they made her PROPPUH AUNT Poison Ivy.

Brooke is tryhard at this point. Beyond tryhard. Someone needs to just let her have it.

CAMP HILARITY CONTINUES!!!

-- Electra's jewelry line is put on hold because of the Logan fashion show??? I mean, are they kidding with this? 😂🤣😂

-- Just how weak and lame is Forrester Creations? 😂

-- "What happened to my sweet, principled little daughter?" says the Slut from the Valley who apparently thinks the way to get Hope back is to treat her like trash.

But seriously though, RJ's a bitch 😂😂😂

😂 He is, but to be fair, so are Will and Electra.

Besides, he looks so good doing his bitchery. (Don't like him? That's OK -- more for me!)
