B&B: August 2026 Discussion Thread

Tune in this week to see if Steffy’s wardrobe will continue its sponsorship and cross marketing with Gorton’s Fisherman. Or, will she join Finn and cross market by dressing as the Statue of Liberty? BIBBERTY!

-- Laneya Grace (Electra) thinks emotional acting means she puts a tremor in her voice and keeps it up during the entire scene.

-- That goodbye scene with Will was laughable. Crew Morrow (Will) pretty much took the day off. I'm not a fan of accusing actors of phoning it in, but that was not good.

-- I had to LOL when Electra told Will she has "too much self-respect" to be with him. Honey, if that were true, you wouldn't have gone to Will's in the first place. Nor would she still call Dylan "my best friend."

-- I know that soaps often give us characters having a conversation that we'd skip having in real life. Still, I'm not a fan when it's patently absurd and illogical. Why did Electra go to Will in the first place? What was her goal? What did she want to hear? If B&B thinks this is a star-crossed lovers' story, they are wrong.

-- Dylan is trash. I never liked her from the beginning. She's always had an agenda, and she's never been a good friend to anyone.

Crew Morrow was awful today. His acting was atrocious.

The writing is awful for these two. Electra is truly delusional. She expects Will to grovel in pain over her and not date anyone after she broke up with him for good. Why is this stupid idiot taking advice from two men who have cheated on every woman they've been with.

Will and Electra are no where near crossed lovers.

And can the writers please stop with the Forresters and Spencers don't mix garbage? What awful writing.

Katie looked a fool cleaning up Will's place while he went out on his motorcycle. And her encouraging Will not to give up hope on Electra is not healthy at all.

RJ's constantly hovering is so annoying and pushy.

-- Carter and Daphne are Snooze TV. No one cares about their baby problems.

-- Katie called Dylan Electra's best friend FOUR TIMES. Do these people even understand the concept of a best friend?

-- At least Katie called out Dylan for being the gold digging ho she is.

-- I'm glad Will didn't lose his appetite while pining over Electra.

Watched yesterday's episode late last night, and the writers really need to move away from the forced pairing of Will and Electra.

Or at least recast Electra 😂

-- Daphne and Carter. Still don't care. Neither does B&B.

-- If only Katie had the same fire and ice for Brooke and the Forresters that she shows Dylan.

-- I'm already bored with Wyatt as a talk-to, dispensing life lessons to everyone he sees.

-- Really sloppy continuity of the garbage that Will left behind. Whoever tried to recreate the mess left yesterday did a terrible job.

It’s dumb. What mother is going to go berate another girl over some face suckin when your son punched an old man and the other girl has now said “no” a couple times. ??

It’s just contrived. Why wouldn’t Katie’s beef be with Electra? and her rebounding to her nephew - kind of twice now and general wishy washy? It’s forced and there’s no real reason to be angry unless your plan is to go stalk Electra and force her on your own son. Lol. The only person between them constantly inserting himself is RJ. Why doesn’t Katie go read him the riot act??

Coming into August...and...meh.

I'll say this much. The actress playing Electra IS doing a good job. It takes a lot to make me look at my app screen and go OH, SHUT UP and/or GIRL, BYE. She's passionate. Sadly, I don't care about Electra and how hypocritical she's being about Will and Dylan. Not that Dylan ain't coming across a saint nor is Dylan wrong, either. If Electra has such an issue about Will being single, go get back with your man. Oh, wait.

My only disappointment in the storyline right now is that they have just glossed over the beat of RJ/Dylan. My bad. Let me also add that Will and Dylan should have had sex.

Meanwhile, Sheila is over here on her knees trying to beg Steffy into getting back into Finn and Hayes's life. At least, they reference the fact that she and Li now get along. But I wasn't feeling that story much either.

It was nice to see Deke. I think I'm crushing. hehe.

Outside of Dylan vs Electra, it was just...meh.

That's where the wiriting is so faulty. Katie should be telling Electra to stop the back and forth with her son because it's so ridiculous.
