Hey Everyone!! I've been very busy lately with getting back to work/school, and planning a wedding, I haven't had much time to blog. The last few weeks have been insane. First, Ronn Moss decides NOT to renew his contract, sighting payroll differences. Then, the queen herself, Susan Flannery opts NOT to renew as well. Instead, she signs a short term contract so Brad Bell has time to give her a proper send off. Look at what's happening. Veterans. People who have been on the show since act 1 scene one are being pushed aside, tossed under the rug. For what??? LEFFY/LOPE!
For the past year, viewers have been forced to watch this train wreck of a triangle. NEWSFLASH...NO ONE LIKES, OR CARES ABOUT THIS TRIANGLE. WE WANT IT DEAD AND GONE! NO ONE WANTS TO SEE BRIDGE/TRIDGE 2.0. We had to deal with that triangle for 20 years. No need to reinvent the wheel.
What THIS viewer would like to see is more stories from the 90s and early 2000s. I mean, I remember a time, tuning into B&B, and you had something called MULTIPLE STORYLINES. It was refreshing. Not only did you see Ridge/Brooke/Taylor..but you also saw other characters like James, Sheila, Thorne and Macy. All in the same show. I guess the whole point of this rant is......UTILIZE ALL CHARACTERS IN THE SHOW, BUT DON'T BASE THEM AROUND THE SAME F**KING STORYLINE. I'm tired of seeing veteran characters demoted to this farce of a triangle. I guess the vets are tired of it as well. Otherwise, they probably wouldn't have opted out of the show.
I know that Ridge's departure will be open ended. So I'm thinking that he'll probably have to handle a crisis at Forrester International. I just don't see them killing Ridge off. Queenie, on the other hand, is a whole other story. Stephanie's cancer fatally return. Towards the end, you see Stephanie trying to get her house in order and give her a grand exit. If BBell wants another emmy nom, I would go that route. Or you could have her go off and spend time with her homegirl, Sally.
I don't know. I've been a faithful viewer of B&B since it's debut. I honestly don't remember a time this show was THIS awful. I understand that Brad Bell wanted to try and hook new viewers with LEFFY/LOPE. He did. My 4th grader was talking with one of her friends about Liam, Hope and Steffy. Since she was off for the summer, she and her mom watched B&B. Congratulations Bell. You gained new, young, viewers. Guess what??? Most of those viewers are back to school now. Get back to good story writing and leave this wanna be Beverly Hills, 90210 type triangle (90210 triangles were much better) alone. JUST GET BACK TO BASICS.
