well I wouldn't go that far.

They might just need to create a new family for the show. The Marone's aren't that interesting. They aren't the Spectra's at least.

I agree that they need to keep certain couples together and keep them that way. They definitely break up Ridge and Brooke TOO much. I'd much rather see her with him though. I find the character of Nick to be very annoying and rude.

I think the show just needs to find some order right now. They keep bouncing around...

Bold & The Beautiful is crazy. They are all related and sleeping with each other. Brooke with Ridge than Nick than Ridge and her daughter wanted Ridge at once and was married to Nick. It is all sick and now Taylor with Rick,that is so gross. Bring on new men. This is just stupid. I mean you wouldn't date your best friends husband never mind your mothers or daughters. The show really needs to end it.

I agree that they need to stop pairing up odd couples and making up and breaking up all the time. But those ppl that are dating are not related!It was gross when Bridget liked Ridge but they aren't related either and they stopped that story pretty quickly(it was back in 2002).I think with the old writers back now,we will get a more real B&B. They are starting on the right path now with the Forresters coming back together.I just want Nick to find a new woman(one that isn't a Logan/Forrester) and for them to bring back Thomas and bring in a Steffy.It would definitely create more story.

Agree.

I agree. I have actually stopped watching the show because the keep screwing with Brooke and Ridge. I want them just to be together.

Please why can't they all just find new people. It was really nice to see Ridge with Ashley. It seemed mature and that they were actually going somewhere. But no the B&B has to have everyone want Brooke. She is beautiful and all but enough.

This soap is so screwed up I cant even watch any more. It is the same old thing all the time...It is very boring and annoying. Ridge/Brooke Brooke/Nick..Brooke needs to be alone for awhile. Give this woman some class. She is nothing but trash going from man to man.... her father in law, her son in law (twice) and she has kids by them all!!! Pair Ridge with Ashley this is more believable to me. Taylor and Rick?? No way. This show is perverted....every one is sleeping with everyone no one is off limits!!! And no one feels bad for it...."I dont care if he is your husband , or your son in law or your daughters boyfriend, I'll sleep with him if I want to dear!!!" ENOUGH ALREADY Cant the writers come up with better than this???????

Posted this under "Gross": Taylor and Rick Is wicked GROSS!! But B&B is notorious for these almost incest, rob the cradle, Demi-Ashton relationships...Bridget and Ridge anyone??? Come on B&B it can't cost that much to get some fresh blood. starving actors, college drama clubs, interns, contest winners ect. Is it really "writing" when its the same story outline over and over again.

I agree that the incest thing has run it's course. Aren't there any more men and women in Beverly Hills? Brooke just jumps from bed to bed with the men in the Forrester family. Her daughter is the daughter of the patriarch of that family and one of her sons is the son of the patriarch of the family. This is just sick.

Please new blood and soon. Can't Bridget fall for a new intern or they could have their own McDreamy. And if they are going to put Ridge with Brooke than leave them together or just end it. Enough. Stop with all the relatives sleeping with one another. Please, otherwise end it here.

I'm rather new to these forums but I am seriously amazed at some of these comments in this thread... I have watch soaps (mainly CBS) since my grand-mother got me addicted when I was around 10 yrs old. And while the shows are not perfect 100 percent of the time (let's see who could ever pull that off), they are still being broadcast daily. Why is everyone so negative, Soaps are supposed to take us away from "reality", which given the worlds current problems is pretty hard to do. Soaps are supposed to ENTERTAIN and allow an escape from our daily lives, if only for an hour or so. If you allow it to become something it is not, REALITY, then you are taking away the whole point of why Soaps exist. Sorry for the long post but I chuckle at all the posts and know that while they say how much this show "should be taken off the air", those are the people who record the show every day and cannot miss an episode... Cheers!!

Can I just say "yay!" for the first positive comment I've seen in the B&B forum? LOL.

Thanks! I agree, not enough positive comments in the B&B forums!

It's hard to say anything positive when the story lines have really been lacking. They keep putting the same people together with the same people. Daughters and mother's sharing the same men, it is enough. The actors are amazing but the story lines really need to be changed. They need to throw us some new stuff, all the actors can do it but they must even get tired of it all too. I see they are getting a new man that would be nice. Bridget deserves a man that her mother or anyone else hasn't been with. The show is good just in my opinion needs work.

i don't understand. if you don't like the show, just don't watch it.i get frustrated and get on here and complain, but if i hated it and wanted to never see it again, i'd just not watch it.

Quote:i don't understand. if you don't like the show, just don't watch it.i get frustrated and get on here and complain, but if i hated it and wanted to never see it again, i'd just not watch it. Done, I am not watching it. It is just frustrating when you like a show and the actors on it but get frustrated with the direction of the show. I feel bad not watching but what can you do it. It has become unwatchable and I have taken your advice, thanks.

Hi, I am new to the forum so I am bringing up old topics but I just have to say that Bridget and her medical license are a big joke. At least try to inject some sense of reality into the script. As for Bridget jumping back in bed with Nick.... this is worse then Taylor and Rick. Now the writers are going to put Katie into the mix. I used to like Nick but now they have turned into a wimp.

The show really needs to end it. I wouldn't take it off, just but a bomb under the writers. The story line needs to be altered drasically. They need new blood cause they are leaving us with the impression that these are the only men in L.A. REALLY?I don't think so they need to diversify the story in a major way.

The people on this show have the sex drive of rabbits. I don't know how they ever get any business done!

Quote:The people on this show have the sex drive of rabbits. I don't know how they ever get any business done! Not only that sex with the same men who have been with either your daughter, mother, best friend or worst enemy ewwwww.Time for a change ladies.

When Taylor, by accident, killed Thorne's wife, he was able to forgive her. Thorne, the good son, has apparently bitten into one of Stephanie's poison apples. The way he manhandled & literally threw Donna out the door on Monday's show, upset me. He was at one time in love w/Donna, what he did doesn't hold true to the way his character has been written & played in the past. In a sad way it was almost comical because it was so out of character for him. Can't the writers allow for 1 decent person on this show? Every soap has a good guy, I always rooted for Thorne, but all he's become this past summer is a shadow of his mother.

I wouldn't go as far to take it off but DANG the same crap has been bed hoping, marrying and swinging for the longest time. can't they for once let someone be happy and FIX Stephanie, that meddeling mother is just gone too far, makes me wanna stop watching...

I'd rather watch Capitol reruns.

This is a blast from the past..but remember when Taylor was thought dead, but was really with a that King that wanted to marry her in another country? Forgot where it was. And Then Taylor came back to LA and Ridge dropped his glass at the sight of her? Those were the days.

I just can't believe that after Stephanie pointed that rapist in Brooke's direction, Felicia would hire a man to seduce Donna. Did no one learn anything? Also, (I must have missed something -) why doesn't Donna just call Lt. Baker? It would be so easy, and would fix everything. "My husband just woke up from a coma and his crazy ex-wife (you remember Stephanie right?) checked him out of the hospital somehow, took him to our house and had me physically removed from the property. Now she is refusing to let me enter MY house and see MY husband. Please arrest her for kidnapping, Thorne for assult, and all of the other freakin' kids for trespassing in my home. Thank you."

But this is B&B...=Bizarro World.

Quote:But this is B&B...=Bizarro World. I agree. Who just gives up their child like that. So the child is fussy, he will get over it. He isn't going to be scarred for life. I can't believe Taylor would just give her son to Brooke. It is so silly. Now I wonder what will happen. Brooke has baby Jack, will that now mean that she and Ridge will not get married and she and Nick will hook up again. It will be Brooke and Katie fighting over Nick. Please, I really can't take this show. Think I am going to stop watching for a while and hope and pray someone wakes up and starts writing something new!

You know what this show needs and complete overhaul, you know this incest is best thing has got to stop.Hey here is a thought ( which has been mentioned before) let's send Stephanie to G.C. to reek some havoc there with her BFF Katherine.Might get Stephanie of the Eric kick and give her other people to haunt. What do you think.But seriously either TPTB need to take a sabatical or place quarter in slot and engage brain. These circular story lines are really getting old. And as perviously mention I am sure there are more men in L. A. than these guys.Bring in some new blood and new stories. PLEASE

Did you see today?!? Looks like Ridge is going to be okay with it, but suddenly Taylor isn't over Ridge. What?!? Also, you'd think an Oncologist turned Psychiatrist would know to "heal thyself" and not send the kid away.

In a way it should be called Logan's world cause that's what it ha been for ages. In the real world someone would get hurt or worse a communicable cootie infection fronm all the sleeping around. I think it's just becuase it a 1/2 hour show they can only do So much. But I'll NEVER look at Lemon Bars the same way again

BINGO!But then that's what an intelligently written soap or Erica Kane would do, not B+B, better it's done with such drama that I end up ROTFLMAO. I guess these writers think this is a religious soap. All the characters seem to need some serious saving.

Just like they refuse to let Donna see Eric,legally she is still his wife, and has the power of atty to boot. Steph really doesn't have anything to say on this one. I agree Donna should call the po po and have them all thrown in jail. Uh not Felicia I went to school with her in real life, I'm kinda partial to her. Even tho we never see her son Dom

If Felicia is thrown in jail, LK can come home to ATWT - Carly is in serious need of a friend (LK would have to move to New York though).I've often wondered if "Dino's" father (Dante? Was that his name?) got custody of him when I wasn't watching because Felicia doesn't even mention him. At least Thorne throws things out like "Ally's at the sitter." The people on B&B are the WORST PARENTS EVER!! - Speaking of which, if Amber is on Y&R, Rick is on B&B, and Decan is in rehab, who is raising "Little Eric/D"? I hope Amber is off somewhere raising him in secret, and the girl on Y&R is actually April throwing everyone off Amber's trail. It would explain why Y&R has ignored some of Amber's B&B history. (I can dream right?)

(I can dream right?) Good question on lil Eric? who is raising this kid. I hope it is not Amber. I never liked her, and still don't, but the writers droped the ball on this one too.

Well no Amber doesn't have him, he is probably off in some boarding school in Switzerland or something and the next time you see him he will be either in his late teens or early 20's.And you are right they are lousy parents, to busy sleeping with each others spouse, daughters boyfriend etc. A kid just gets in the way of that.

Talk about dysfunctionallllllThose kids will have problems that even Tayor can't solve. Oh and wait till Dom, JAck, and RJ n Hope grow up. Talk about all the infighting

Speaking of Baby Jack, the way Brooke was making those dang goo-goo eyes at Nick yesterday is a pretty sure sign that we're gonna have'em all going at each other again (Brooke/Nick/Ridge & now Katie) Would somebody please sign these lady's up on Match.com? Enough of these in bred jed story's.

Tell me about it. Problem is, is that Brooke can't get her own man she needs to take everyone else's. And if she is not doing that she goes after the unattainable ones. Either way when it comes to love Brooke fails miserably.

Quote:Tell me about it. Problem is, is that Brooke can't get her own man she needs to take everyone else's. And if she is not doing that she goes after the unattainable ones. Either way when it comes to love Brooke fails miserably. The whole show is such a disaster. How does a Mom just give her child up just because it is fussy, that is so crazy. Brooke and Nick will hook up everyone can see that coming. How many times are we going to go down this road? Why isn't anyone discussing how gross it is that Nick has been with everyone. Friends don't date other friends boyfriends yet Mother, daughter and sister and aunt share the same dude. Than please don't get me started on Eric and that whole mess and than there is poor Bridget. She needs to pack her bags and leave town.

Since Taylor was the intelligent touchstone on this show and the resident Shrink to boot, why would the writers have her just give Jack to Brooke? Maybe back to Nick & then have Brooke take him to court for custody, but not Taylor handing the main trial/tribulation in her life, this baby. Let's play destroy Taylor, starting w/her relationship w/Rick, her daughters ex-love. That is probably the best example I can come up with on why this soap has not stayed on course & true to its characters, that've taken so many years to develop and for the fans to either love or hate.Now I'm just confused.. disgusted.. & very close to not waiting around for some miracle to occur which puts this show back on track.

Quote:Now I'm just confused.. disgusted.. & very close to not waiting around for some miracle to occur which puts this show back on track. You aren't the only one. I watch maybe one day every 2 weeks because it's the same thing.

A smart woman like her would never do that. They are setting up another Brooke and Nick reunion, it is so done.

Quote:this show has run its course. please take it off. it makes me vomit. this s---- with brooke and taylor marrying re marrying ridge and jack! how sick are the writers. try a new soap and take this crap off. take this junk off the air!

I stopped watching it ; I just couldn't handle this show...but I don't want another soap to go down the tubes since now we only have 8

but when Brooke slept with her third Forrester I was done and how long ago was that. The musical chairs then included Taylor who was never involved in that switcheroo when they scribed her (one of my favorite characters) a Brooke clone. I was done...I tune in for Susan Flannery ever so often because she' so awesome but I'm done with B&B.

I can't handle the incestuous implications of their stories which have been pretty much the same for nearly two decades. Brooke shags every guy in a family. With wimpy Eric always championing this woman he and all his sons have been married to no matter what she does he never draw the lines...he looks like a #1 idiot and Ridge #2. I read in re-caps Eric married Brooke' sister how this show is so bizarre; I just can't spend my time on this nonsense.. .

Omygoodness Rick & Taylor?

I just read this in this thread, say it ain't so, please this is not Taylor I adore

The mass destruction of Taylor's character was the final straw. She is with Rick, gave the baby Jack to Brooke, because she basically couldn't handle it and now of course we'll get Brooke & Nick again since they're the biological parents of poor, little, innocent Jack. It's like a bad replay of the old Abbott/Costello bit of "Who's on First" except it's who's Brooke with now.

I used to watch this show for the fashions, the LA lifestyle and the excitement...I no longer Tivo B&B...it's a joke! Please please please take it off the air. I mean come on Taylor with Rick? This is just way to much... Everyone has slept with eachother at some point...its sooo gross!Brooke...she is a mess, how many times do we have to hear about her destiny? I think her destiny is to cancel the show...

I only watch the show about 2 times a month. That's all I can handle! I never quite understood how Brooke was always listed in the digest's favorite actress/couples poll. It's been awhile since I have looked at the magazine but it always puzzled me! She is a good actress but her character appauls me! How many times can you wear white and act like your wedding is the most important day of your life?

Did you catch Taylor kissing Ridge today? Takes me back to memory Lane before things got too wild

Taylor kissing Ridge took me way, way back. Loved it!
