Thomas is horrible but in an exciting way. Ridge, I never say this to a person, but I hate you. You deserve all the cruelty coming your way. When you can't even open your stupid mouth to say what's your problem, but just walk away, you don't deserve anyone. And Steffy you'll eat your gloating ten times. Just you wait. Brooke you're free now. Free from this worthless waste of skin and his crazy children. You'll cry for some time and you'll see it. You'll also see (we so hope) a real man in front of you. Deacon I hope Sheila vomits on you.
Good, let Bill or Liam have her!! Bet you none of you would trust Brooke around your husbands or boyfriends in real life!!!! Rick is just as twisted and evil as Thomas, who has every right to load that witch. Ridge scarred his children for life.
All of the Forrester men except for Thomas has a sick obsession for that "over the hill wanna be sex symbol!" That goes for her home wrecker tramp sister Donna too. It makes so no sense that the Logan's are viewed as heroines. They are nothing but men stealing, gold digging, disgusting vamps!
I will take Shelia and Quinn anyday over them. I wish they would team up and do some serious damage to those witches!! I refuse to watch Thomas being sacrificed once again for the "Hogans!"
@ Elle, if what you say is true, then Ridge will stay with Taylor even after he finds out what evil Thomas did in impersonating Brooke. But we both know Ridge will be begging for Brooke’s forgiveness as soon as he finds out the truth. So not true what you said. It is Thomas’s fault for sure. But I hope this convinces Brooke that Ridge isn’t worth another second of her life and she moves on for good when Ridge comes groveling back to her!!
The way I see it Lynn, Thomas did what he did to get his parents back together. Why was he able to succeed in what he did? Because Ridge's and Brooke's marriage was already fractured. Why was their marriage fractured? Because Brooke kissed Deacon, lied about it then chose to defend Deacon rather than support her husband.
And even if we don't go that far back in time to Brooke's mistake, we can look at Brooke insinuating herself in Thomas and Hope's business where parenting of Douglas is concerned. She went too far and even stated that she was willing to do "whatever it takes" to get Douglas back home with Hope and Liam. I said it before and I'll say it again.... Brooke should have just let sleeping dogs lie. She brought this on herself.
And I still believe it was her plan all along to goad Thomas into doing something like this. She pushed and pushed and pushed until he cracked. She should not cry foul now.
Elle, 👏👏👏 I agree 💯.. Like I’ve said, people forget, that her marriage imploded well before the cps thing.. that was just the last straw.. Brooks manipulated, made threats, and pushed Thomas to the brink.. It’s so easy for people to blame Thomas, and ignore the fact their marriage was already in major trouble.. when Brooke said to Ridge, is it bill , deacon, he specifically said, it’s all of that.. cos was just the last straw..
@brenda, why are you blaming Douglas? All he did, was tell the truth of what he saw, is that so wrong of a young child?? If so, then what do you think of what Brooke did?? And how she tried to hush Douglas up?? Wow, you gonna blame Douglas for that?? And is it Douglas’s fault also that he is caught between this war that BROOKE created?? Wow!! So Brookes a bloody saint hey??
well said elle everthing that has happened has been because the relationship with brooke and ridge was way cracked before otherwise it would of been strong and not faultered over this. i think if the truth comes out he will stay with taylor after seeing how happy he is and how honest there relationship is he is done with brooke she is going to go sleep with liam anyway and ruin her other daughters life
Agreed ladies! For Ridge he’s looking T decades of Brooke lying one eyed crying and repeating the same behaviour a million times over.
I really didn’t like the way she just tells Ridge to get on the plane, that she won’t ALLOW this to be over etc. He was so disgusted when she was ordering him around and realized he usually obeys her!
Their marriage was in name only. He avoided her constantly and spends all his time defending her bad behaviour to others.
The fact her magic nether regions are no longer a siren song for him (Eric sadly will always be trapped by it) allows him to actually look at the reality of his life with her. To see the toxic cycle for what it is!
She should be glad he’s setting her free… run lassie run!
She has done a hundred times worse.. its good to see her dumped for a change.. if she had not have attacked Thomas, to get Douglas back, so they “couldn’t use him as a lure”, her words, and MANIPULATED, and made threats, to make Thomas look so bad over something so petty, such as using a samauri sword to cut an apple, this might not have happened.. What Thomas did is absolutely NOTHING, compared to what Brooke has done to come between Ridge and Taylor!! She faked pregnancies and misscarages and tried to seduce him every opportunity she got, over and over, and stopped at nothing, to get her way, so I don’t sympathise with her one bit.. When Brooke wants something, there’s nothing she wouldn’t do to get it..
Agreed! Brava ladies… I have no sympathy for her… her first words are that whatever he’s promised Taylor he should just walk out and go off with Brooke! She is perfectly happy to destroy Taylor and gloat about it. Karma is a biatch and she’s coming for you Brooke.
Regardless of what Thomas did, that marriage has been over for a long time, Ridge finally put it the tomb where it belongs!
@Colly Amen. She's just as manipulative as Thomas, and not to victimize him but he was spot on when he said "wonder where I got it from". He's seen her snakey behavior his whole life - child see, child do. The fact she suggested Hope should use the CPS thing to her advantage shows us she hasn't changed a bit like the Logan worshippers keep parroting. Even Hope rolled her eyes at that.
I honestly am not surprised he snapped, or that he didn't sooner, the way Brooke has been lurking about HOPING Thomas slips up and she can swoop down and steal his only child away. Imagine they killed Caroline off, and turned Douglas' only other bio parent into a "lunatic" and he loses them both to become a prop for boring hypocritical characters... well, we can. And that little boy is going to have to endure same vicious cycle of abuse as Thomas (and Steffy) watching Brooke's behavior, and Lope's toxic relationship... tragic and quite frankly obnoxious writing.
And the other thing that Brooks fans have ignored, is that even Hope’s first thought was that Brooke did it!! So what does that say!! But Brooke fans won’t admit that her behaviour causes the people closest to her, to automatically assume it was her.. Again, the boy who cried wolf!! Hope finally stood up to her mother and basically told her to back off and butt out!! Again, what does that say!! The look on Hopes face , when Brooke said, you can use this to your advantage to get Douglas back, I don’t think Hope was impressed..
Oh Thomas, you twisted lunatic….you can’t just let your dad decide who he wants to be with, because you know damn well the only way he leaves Brooke is if you trick him. Your have zero faith in Giggles!!! Ridge seemed very sad telling Steffy about Brooke. If Ridge wants a life filled with honesty, he needs to disown his son immediately! Steffy - can’t wait for Karma to smack the crap out of you and your evil brother. And Ridge should die old and alone!!! Narcsssic POS!!!
Thomas is no more of a lunatic than Rick, Bill, Brooke, or Liam. You Logan worshippers kill me. If Ridge once again turns on his son for that slut and hurts Taylor, he deserves all the pain that is coming his way!!!
I refuse to watch this Brooke is an innocent victim crap. True fans such as myself know the real truth about the "slut from the valley!" Sick of the Logan show for real!! Enough writers already!!
Valinda, The Forresters are all obnoxious, entitled jerks. Every single one of them, except Eric. Everyone likes Eric. Brooke is no victim. She’s a rockstar!! She is not the person you guys describe at all. She is an upper-middle-aged lady who handles herself with dignity and grace. She hasn’t been screwing around with any married men for literally years!! You Forrester fans seriously need to get over it!!! The Brooke you all describe is NOTHING like the person she is today! I am not a huge Donna fan, she’s just OK. And I don’t see Katie enough to have too much of an opinion. I do like Hope, but Brooke is my favorite for sure! The Brooke fans are here to stay! 😁😁😁😁
Just because someone doesn't share your opinions Valinda doesn't mean they're not a true fan. That's a ridiculous attitude, that my way or the highway mentality. If you hate the show so much, why keep watching?
Very true Lynn! It's amazing when we have to read this pseudo hate here when we all know that most people watch exactly because of Brooke. Many "haters" don't even really root for someone, they just root for her to suffer so that they can tell the same story again and again how she slept with this that and other. Well sorry to disappoint you, but there's a reason she's stayed for 35 years, unlike anyone. She never left the show or fake died or "moved to Paris" (that's almost like the "farm upstate" version of the show 😂). And she will stay for as long as KKL wants the role. Because without her you people have next to nothing to discuss. Taylor and her insane, hypocritical prodigy can't swing it by a long shot. Not to mention that excuse of a man their father. Without her he's nothing, always has been from episode one. Brooke is bold and beautiful and without her and all her colorful, exciting , frustrating at times quest for love there is simply no show.
Milla, you say a lot of the haters don’t root for anyone, they just root for her to suffer, so they can bring up all her bad behaviour?? Well if that’s the case, then you have to ask yourself, doesn’t that say a lot about Brooke then?? That all those haters that are not even rooting for someone, but r hating on Brooke anyway because she is who she is..!
That's exactly my point Colly - that Brooke is the center of the show, for both loving and hating viewers :) I see her as exciting, you as awful, but we're only looking at and for her :)
Yes, when we can't defend Brooke's actions, we'll just highlight her supposed importance to the show. We all know that without Brooke, the bold and the beautiful will be dead. Hmm, they used to say the same thing about Stephanie. Even gave the show a year or 2 of survival post-Stephanie yet, hear we are many years later.
Y'all Brooke supporters act like she's some underdog when she's just a dog. It's not that the Taylor/Steffy/Thomas supporters don't root for anyone. We have our faves that we root for indeed. It's just that we are more objective when they make mistakes or do wrong. We can admit to their faults. The Brooke supporters however, don't do the same. They either make excuses for her behavior, deflect by saying how important she is to the show or go silent.
I've seen on this very blog that once there is no storyline that involves Brooke, her supporters would rarely post anything and even then, it's only a few. The ones who, it is claimed, don't root for anyone are the ones who continue to discuss the show and whatever storyline is going on. This is why Valinda can refer to "true fans of the show." If Brooke were to leave, it's not her haters who will stop watching or commenting, that's for sure.
KKL never left because this show is her bread and butter so, of course, her character stuck around. She has tried other acting projects outside of this show but was not very successful. But I guess it is a good thing because it gave the writers the opportunity to beat Brooke into the ground and then some.
Elle I haven't seen much admission of Steffys and Thomas's wrongdoings here, quite the opposite it's always pushed on Brooke. People can't even admit he pushed that girl off a road or that Steffy slept her way through the Spencer family multiple times. It's always "what about Brooke?" Or "what about Hope" (as a Brooke extension) when someone calls out those things. Brooke is not an underdog she's a queen of daytime drama. I'd like to see a statistic of the comments here and elsewhere on storylines involving and not involving Brooke, I'm sure the numbers will be quite far apart. And haters and supporters are equally involved because you see to every statement of attack, we respond right back.
So now what is the last statement - are "the writers always propping up Brooke/the Logan's" or beating her into the ground? Because I read both here.
I personally don't see highlighting how important she is for the show as opposition to admitting her faults. I think they go hand in hand like I said above! It's because of those "faults" we have a show and because of them we actually have half of the characters on this show. Look at how much time you guys are spending lashing against her (for us it's clear we do too)
I think its not a question of whether Brooke made mistakes, I think we all know the answer YES. The difference of attitudes stems from the answer we would give to the question of "should Brooke not have done all that she did?". You would say "she shouldn't have because it's wrong". I would say "she should have because it creates exciting storylines and discussions".
Milla, it's the very same thing that happens when Brooke behaves badly. Her wrongdoings are pushed on Thomas or Steffy or Taylor or Ridge or Sheila. Don't act like that's not true. People cannot even admit that Brooke made a hobby out of destroying people's marriages without saying "well, Taylor slept with the same men Brooke has." They will never admit that the demise of Brooke's marriage is because of her own actions without blaming Steffy and Taylor for interfering and trying to break up Ridge and Brooke even though their marriage was already shattered by Brooke herself.
I don't have to see statistics of comments on storylines with Brooke vs without Brooke because I've witnessed it myself right here on this very board during the Quinn/Carter/Paris storyline and the Deacon/Sheila storyline after the shooting. Total comments on the show each day was between the 50s and 60s compared to the 100+ comments whenever Brooke is involved. And I am pretty sure that Bob can confirm same.
Even as simple as when Brooke is getting in Hope's way or Brooke and Liam are spending way too much time together or when Hope is confronting her mother, the Brooke supporters remain silent. But as soon as she starts rising to the top again, here comes the "Brooke is queen or Brooke will always win."
Actually I think I should pay less attention 😅 spending too much time on this show/blog anyway. I'm the one who drives up the statistics of Brooke comments so high so I'll just stay silent.
Me to Milla! It is clear to me that you are intelligent and well spoken, and understand that soap operas are supposed to bring drama! If everything went perfect and everyone was happy, it would be boring and I wouldn't watch it!
Milla - A while back I went through the same thing and felt like the blog was starting to cause me stress. I stopped commenting for just over a month. Then I said, screw it! I’m just gonna speak my mind and I don’t care who likes what I have to say! 😁😁 So I hope you chime in frequently!
@Millia I'm sure that was it is, spying so that he can get his Brooke. I just watched some upcoming promo where Katie and Bill are having lunch together and Bill begs for Katie back, but she doesn't trust him, and I wouldn't trust him either because he has shown lately that Brooke is still on his mind and Katie is NO dummy
Ah so that must be where the Il giardino bit was taken from that was part of the Talk promo that came on for a second. But also seems to me that Katie has her sights still on Carter, if that spoiler is true: "Bold & Beautiful spoilers for Friday, October 14: Carter confesses the truth about Katie to Quinn. But will it be the dire truth we predicted?"
The answer is probably yes, nobody has stood in Quinn's way and didn't suffer the consequences 🙈 she's always been a Sheila Light.
@Milia I think Katie is sick and tired of wondering if Bill would be a sincere and honest man to her, and Carter has probably made her feel that she can trust him to be good to her.
@ Milia Sorry about that my screen sees things in small prints, thanks for telling me. Well, as for Carter and Quinn their love life certainly burnt out. their flame certainly died quickly. I guess Quinn is losing her touch
No worries Elizabeth I was sure that's the case with it. Milla - one i, two LLs. Not Milia 😂 I missed when Carter and Quinn fizzled... but I guess you're right.
The actress who plays Quinn left the show suddenly due to contract negotiations not working out. It's not that she and Carter fizzled, it's that the character is no longer in the show. Now, they're gonna fabricate some asinine plot about Carter and Katie who spent all of 2 seconds in each other's company.
Elle LOL that's true! But of course for us Brooke fans quite welcome, Katie will be with a good gorgeous man who never wanted her sister and Bill will be able to pursue Brooke ❤️
Katie will be with a good, gorgeous, much younger man. Let's not forget that! Because noone forgot that he was much younger when he and Quinn were together.
Ah I actually forgot that, but after the whole love octagon that got going starting with Eric and ending with Zende, it seems age is just a number in general here 😅
First off, thank you so much Bob. Secondly, all of this Thomas is so "evil" and deserves cosmic justice, is so silly and stupid. Where is Rick's karma? Bill's? Deacon's? Donna's? Brooke? And so on and so on. You people act like Brooke is some innocent "wallflower" or something.
This woman boinked one daughter's boyfriend. Got pregnant by her son-n-law, and brother-in-law!! Yet, she and Ridge have this great love affair lol.lol. Give me a break!! I would not let Brooke within 100 feet of my husband and neither would any of you "Logan" lovers!!!!
We true fans of BNB are sick and tired of the "Hogan" show. Who wants to watch this train wreck of a show now? I mean really? Ridge, if you go back to that woman, you deserve more pain and heartache that is coming your way. Taylor, you deserve a man who only loves you. Steffy, finally broke her cycle with that loser Liam. Now it is your turn. Eric, Donna, Bill, Liam, Deacon, and the rest of the "Hogan" cult members can all take a long walk off of a short pier.
I will defend the Forresters to the end. I just refuse to watch this predictable storyline any further!! Shame on Bell for making Thomas lie down on the sword once again for the "witches from the valley!"
Agree with everything you said Valinda.. I wish Taylor stuck to her guns.. I didn’t feel sorry for Brooks one iota!! Karma!! Even she was nodding her head to what Steffy was saying.. And I would love to see a Brooks fan, be besties with Brooke when she has no man in her life, and see if they feel secure with their husbands 🤣🤣🤣 Brooks is the furthest from a Saint, than anyone on the show.. Karma is a biatch.. she can see what it’s like when the shoe is on the other foot now!! It’s not nice having someone disrespect and come between you and your husband, is it Brooke!! You should have kept out of what was NOT your business.. But having said that.. I don’t want Taylor with Ridge.. Why can’t they find her a man, like they did for Steffy?? Instead of recycling the same BS.. And there goes a Hope and Thomas hook up.. I was really hoping for that!! Why can’t the writers come up with something new, instead of recycling?? This show is sinking fast..
What I find so amusing, is that, even the writers know exactly who Brooke is, and as much as it seems as though they favour her, they have written the dialogue, to describe her exactly the same way that I and others see her.. Interesting!!
Oh bloody hell, Ridge! If you love Brooke so much, why are you making promises to Taylor???
It is clear that Ridge's heart is torn. He needs to stay by himself for a while instead of running away from one toward the other one. And, for the life of me, I do not understand why these women want him so badly. Taylor needed to keep her foot down and let Ridge know that she is not interested in being an option for him to run to. And Brooke, she just needs to put her foot down, period! Alas, she will always fight for Ridge.
As for Thomas, I am sorely disappointed. Yes, the actor plays the hell out of the evil Thomas role, but come on, can't they just move on to another storyline with him where his acting can shine just as much? Tired of this.
@Elle I agree Ridge never feels like he is into Taylor, even though she is better for him than the other one. Bell just keeps wasting his time in finding ways to have Ridge and Taylor to be together and then POW! He makes Ridge to break Taylor's heart again. Finally, Taylor stood up for herself and then she back into Ridge's trap again, and now it's a matter of time that we are going see Thomas be exposed and Ridge will dump Taylor again and I will assume that Steffy will feel regrets later of pushing her dad back to mom and be worried about her mother leaving town again.
@Elizabeth you would think that after the previous two epic fails trying to get their parents to tie the knot they would have learned but no. They never regretted it. Those two will keep trying until they are well into their 50s and their parents are fossils.
Ridge is a psychopath, just like Thomas and Steffy. Nobody gets a divorce without sharing the reason to their partner. I hope Brooke finally sees him for what he is and move on with her life.
I don't care who Ridge chooses. When Brooke went into her ugly cry, I felt bad for her as Brooke was blindsided by this & is clueless regarding what she did that caused Ridge to dump her. Brooke is so desperate for an explanation. Ridge totally believes that Brooke called CPS & wants her to to confess it. It is a vivid reminder how important communication is in any relationship.
Renee, has she stopped to think this all started with her kissing deacon?? She said to Ridge, is it bill or deacon and he said it’s all of that.. it wasn’t just about the cps thing.. Ridge can’t trust her, simple.. she brought that on herself.. if she hadn’t lied every other time she did something wrong, then maybe Ridge could trust her.. He has been drifting away since he found out about the kiss and deacon his bed.. she may not b responsible for the cps call, but she brought this all on herself.. it really is that simple.. people seem to have forgotten how their marriage imploded in the first place, because she did what she ALWAYS does, cheats then lies, then when caught out cries, begs for forgiveness.. and then it starts all over again… Logan fans have conveniently forgotten how she destroyed her own marriage with deacon.. it’s more convenient to blame Thomas 🤣🤣🤣 take the focus off her bad deeds!!
And Logan fans say, it was just a kiss!! I wonder how many times they could forgive their husbands if they were “just kissing” other women, or as Brooke has done many times, slept with other men, and continuously lied to them until caught out?? could they forgive that over and over.. ?? I don’t think so somehow!! My husband would b out the door never to return after just the first time!!
Renee, I felt bad for Brooke yesterday and today as well. As you said, she was totally blindsided and Ridge refuses to tell her why he left her in LA and came to Aspen. No woman - not even Brooke - deserves that.
Having said that, I also agree with Colly that she brought this on herself. Brooke never learns. She just keeps making the same mistakes over and over and over again. I feel bad for her but I cannot sympathize with her at all. She has done much worse to Taylor in the past.
Colly, the call to CPS was the final straw. I just think that Ridge should have communicated that. She would deny that she made the call & he would not believe her, but at least she would know why he decided to be with Taylor. Heck, Taylor also deserved to hear the explanation for Ridge deciding to end his marriage & commit to her.
The CPS call is exactly what made Ridge go running to Taylor in Aspen. Apparently Ridge can’t stand to be alone for even 5 mins as he pinball’s himself straight to Taylor after he thinks Brooke betrayed him by calling CPS and supposedly lied to him. Ridge is extremely needy and pathetic. 100% guarantee Ridge would not be in Aspen right now chasing Taylor had the call not happened. That’s why the audio of the call keeps playing in Ridge’s head each episode. And ya, drunk Brooke kissed Deacon once. But Ridge has been establishing a full-on relationship with Taylor and has kissed her many times. And yes, Brooke had a vulnerable moment and ended up kissing Bill once. But drunk Ridge literally married Shawna and spent lots of one on one time with her. It seems Ridge always feels the need to ‘one-up’ Brooke. And yet Ridge is free from all blame in the Forrester lover’s eyes. Too funny! As far as Brooke being around my husband, lol…I personally would have no issue with it. I trust my husband. At the end of the day, the men who cheat are simply willing participants. So I could absolutely be friends with Brooke in real life.
Yeah Ridge is always innocent and lured away by the evil Brooke! What a bunch of patriarchal bullshit. He's a dog that wants whoever happens to be standing next to him. There's such double standards when it comes to the Logan' and Forester women. The Logan's are always slut shamed, but the Forester women always have extenuating circumstances for why they f around.
Hilary, I agree with you where Ridge is a dog wanting whoever!! I wish both Taylor and Brooks would kick his ass to the curb!! Let him learn how to respect a woman!!
Renee, I agree with you love, he should definitely have spoken to Brooke about everything he was unhappy about and explained his reasons why BEFORE he got on that plane.. even though I don’t like Brooke, what he did was very wrong and unfair to her.. I am not denying that at all!! He is an ass.. I wish they both would kick him to the curb and he end up alone.. then maybe he might realise what an ass he is and how to show woman more respect.. it’s true, the writers are very misogynistic.. They need some strong women on the writing team..
Ah of course he didn't open his mouth, there should be some times of torture, plus that may push Brooke sooner to Bill if he manages to play his cards right and point out with his unique hilarious epithets what a jackass the dressmaker is. Nothing gives me more pleasure than listening to Bill bash on Ridge 😂😂😂
Ridge opened himself to Shauna because of Brooke’s out of control behaviour and giving him ultimatums! He left, she turned to Bill the second he was gone and blamed it on Ridge. She was desperate to cover that up… remember her frantically removing the video from the photo frame and hiding it in a drawer??? She castigated Ridge for Shauna while hiding that fact she made out with Bill, to make it worse Bill had convinced Katie to give him another chance and Brooke once again betrayed her own sister!
@ BBFAN - there was no “out of control behavior by Brooke” when Ridge took up with Shauna. Ridge was supporting Thomas’s bad behavior as usual and Brooke wasn’t having it. He wasn’t standing beside his wife even when Brooke was 100% correct about Thomas like she always is. Ridge even apologized to Brooke later for being wrong. The thing that happened with Shauna and Ridge was way overkill just like everything Ridge does. The kiss with Bill happened once. And they both regretted it immediately. And Brooke apologized to Katie many times for her indiscretion.
Just because Brooke was upset at Ridge for supporting his son, and the fact she lied like she always does, and got caught out, like she always does, and that she regretted it, like she always does, and that she apologised for her “indiscretion”, many times like she always does, doesn’t excuse her for what she did.. it doesn’t make what she did ok!! Then she did it again!! And worse.. This behaviour has been the same for decades.. she hasn’t changed and if Ridge goes back to Brooks, it will happen again!! You can’t excuse her behaviour any more than I can with what Thomas did.. and saying it was “just a kid” does not make her any better than Thomas.. She accused Taylor of putting her lips on her husband.. But it’s ok for Brooke to put her lips on her sisters husband, and any other man who feeds her ego.. spin it how u like.. Brooke has not changed, and never will.. she is well into her 60’s and still can’t be loyal.. what Ridge did with shauna, was in reaction to what Brooke did.. No it doesn’t make it right, but this is what always happens.. she does something and he reacts..
Colly, she isn’t “well into her 60’s”. I believe she is 61. And by anyone’s standards that is early 60’s. Please don’t exaggerate. I see that time and time again from the Forrester lovers. And it just makes the Logan supporters pounce even harder on your comments. Kissing and having sex are not the same thing. Yes, both are cheating. But I would venture to guess that most women would find intercourse outside of marriage far more insulting than a kiss. And the thing with Ridge and Thomas…neither of them have any regret. NEVER!! They seem proud, or at least perfectly fine with their indiscretions. Moreover, Ridge and Thomas are not reacting in a moment of distress or alcohol induced behavior. That’s just who Thomas and Ridge are…and they keep it up!! It’s not a one-off like the recent Deacon or Bill kisses. There is no “ooops” when it comes to Thomas and Ridge. Ridge has been playing both Giggles and Brooke for MONTHS now!!! No guilt whatsoever from Ridge!! And Thomas couldn’t be more pleased with himself for his latest disgusting trick. He thinks he won the war with his latest disgusting act of trickery. But he is wrong!!! Ridge will beg for Brooke’s forgiveness. I only hope she tells him it’s over for good and is happy with Bill!!! Ridge doesn’t deserve the time of day from Brooke!!!
Lynn, it is irrelevant wether or not anyone regretted what they did.. They still did it.. And Brooks “regrets “ it every time but still continues to do it, so that’s even worse in my opinion.. If you regret something, then surely, you wouldn’t do it again.. again, that doesnt cut it!! And to blame it on stress and alcohol doesn’t cut it either Lynn.. Brooke encouraged Deacon to stay, a man her husband despises, she could have sent him away.. but no, she actually encouraged him to stay and drink with her.. When the kids happened, Brooke herself said, she was sober enough to knoe what was happening, “but she let it happen” anyway.. Those were her words.. then she lied for months and hushed douglas up, got Hope and Liam to lie for her, made Douglas come home from a night with his dad and family, in fear he would tell them, and so she could hush him up!! Come on Lynn.. And they were kisses, still a betrayal and cheating.. Honestly, can you just be honest with yourself?? If your husband kept kissing other women, and lying about it to you, then u catch him out, and he has no choice but to own up to it, begs you to forgive him for the umteenth time, promises u it won’t happen again, then it does, and again lies to u till he is caught out, gives you the same BS and promises.. I really cannot see anyone putting up with that.. you obviously trust your husband, but I am asking you, that if he did these things in reality, what would you do, and how would you feel?? Stress and alcohol doesn’t cut it.. kissing is still cheating.. and if your husband kept betraying you with your sister??
It isn’t irrelevant at all. I would much prefer to deal with someone who regrets their bad behavior than someone who is fine with their bad behavior. The latter refers to a psychopath. I agree that if someone keeps doing the same thing over and over again, then the regret / apology doesn’t seem sincere. But the thing is, I genuinely believe Brooke has changed. She has dialed it back significantly from what you guys say she did decades ago. She hasn’t tried taking anyone’s husband away. Those actions that you describe of Brooke (that I never saw because I wasn’t watching back then) were done with intent and I can only assume malice decades ago. Her one-off kisses with Bill and Deacon were not done with intent or malice. Everyone is more inclined to bad behavior when they are drunk. Esp a known alcoholic. Let’s take Ridge’s drunken behavior - he married Shauna for God’s sake!!! That’s some serious bad judgement there! And Brooke did not invite Deacon up to her bed. He carried her upstairs passed out and put her to bed. Nothing happened. The Bill thing was not good in the way it affected Katie. But as far as what respect Ridge deserves - he’s a total dog and deserves none!!! Brooke was not falling for Bill. And that alone makes it hugely different in my eyes! Ridge has literally been playing 2 women who he damn well knows are both completely in love with him!!! He has been kissing both frequently. And spending time with both for hours on end. And leading both on 100%!!!! That doesn’t even compare to Brooke’s one-off kiss with Bill!! You know it doesn’t.
Lynn, I agree, I don’t like Ridge, never really have, and what he is doing now is so wrong to to both women.. He should have told Brooke his reasons before he got on the plane.. but having said that, You heard what Ridge said when Brooke asked, is it bill and deacon and he said it’s all of that.. The difference is Lynn, is that Brookes constant oopsies, constant lying, constant asking for forgiveness, constant “regrets”, constant promise it won’t happen again, is what causes Ridge to react.. It is a cycle, and constant one.. She stuffs up, lies, and NOT until she is CAUGHT out, admits it, then promises everything under the sun to get him to forgive her and believe her promises.. Ridges actions are wrong as well, but it’s him reacting to her behaviour..
To get him back after he went to Eric’s , she promised to listen to him, and be considerate of his feelings and to SUPPORT him.. then manipulates, threatens his son with cps, to get Douglas back to Hope, instead of keeping her nose out of others business.. Even Hope believe it her, and Hope has just told her to but out and mind her business, her own daughter.. And she wonders how this happened.. Ridge asked her to support him where Douglas and Thomas were concerned.. Did she do that?? NO, instead she started a war!! Even hope wasn’t happy when Brooke said she can use the cps thing to her advantage to get Douglas back.. She interferes when she shouldn’t, manipulates and breaks promises, etc etc etc.. So why is she sooo surprised this happened??
When Ridge married Shauna, he was reacting to Brookes latest betrayal, secondly it was not his intention to marry shauna, he was manipulated by her and Quinn, and he was so drunk he didn’t remember it..
Brooke on the other hand, was still coherent when she encouraged a man ridge despises to stay and keep her company on New Years because she can’t be alone for two seconds and she was upset Ridge was stuck on a tarmac, trying to get home to her, and so she kissed Deacon!!
Well she may have made an idle threat about calling CPS. But she didn’t go through with it. And instead Thomas manipulated the situation to further his quest of getting his parents back together. For goodness sake…Steffy and Thomas are grown ass adults who should let their almost senior citizen parents make their own dang decisions. The whole “get mommy and daddy back together” was ridiculous from the get go. I think Brooke probably overstepped by going to see Thomas alone. But I absolutely believe she has a right to an opinion. She is his adoptive grandmother and Douglas has been living with Hope and Liam for years. It bothers me that you think Brooke should comply with Ridge’s requests / demands. But you don’t think it should also be reciprocated when Brooke makes requests / demands of Ridge. That just further feeds the misogynistic tone of this soap opera. We are bordering on Handmaid’s Tale as it is with the ridiculous writing of this show!!! Women need to rise up in this show and demand respect!! Well except for Steffy - she always shows her perceived self-importance is larger than life!! 🤣🤣🤣
Here we go again…sure Ridge can’t stand Deacon. So??? Brooke can’t stand Taylor and Ridge is with Taylor constantly. And the touchy / feely family stuff going on all the time. Not to mention the multiple kissing episodes. Seems a bit hypocritical- don’t you think??
Lynn, in all honesty, and I have actually said this before, you may not remember, but I don’t think it’s fair what Ridge said, about Deacon not being allowed to come and see Hope, when he is still seeing seeing Taylor.. But you need to remember, the physical side of Ridge kissing Taylor didn’t happen until AFTER the deacon saga.. Even when Taylor was trying to tell Ridge about what they saw on the cameras, deacon showing and not leaving til the next day.. Ridge still got annoyed and defended Brooke, until he spoke to Brooke after what Taylor told him, and she had no choice to confess after lying for months.. He never touched Taylor until AFTER he found Brooke out.. Their marraige started to break down then, big time.. So I wasn’t being contradictory..
Yes Steffy and Thomas are adults, but it should not matter what they say.. Ridge has his own mind, so they can say and hope for all they like.. but at the end of the day, he will do what he wants to do.. it’s easy to say oh but if they didn’t push so hard then!! The marriage imploded when she did what she always does, and everything I said above love..
And she should not have made ANY threats against Thomas, she should not have manipulated people to make Thomas out a bad father either, by leaving out the pocket knife and cutting an apple.. She should have done what Ridge asked her to do and support him for a change, like she promised she would do at Eric’s just to get him to come home.. Spin it any which way, blame it on all the forresters , but at the end of it all , she brought this all on herself.. Yes what Thomas did was wrong, but that was just the icing on the cake!! Even her own daughter assumed it was her, why, because that is how Brooke behaves.. it is totally a Brooke move.. She has done way worse than that..
Have you ever asked yourself, why, despite favouring Brooke, the writers have everyone saying in the dialogue, describing her as how we see her.. why, because she is exactly like that.. They may favour her, but they write her how she is.. All Donna could say to Thomas when he said all the things he did, was the difference is Brooke owns her behaviour, that’s it, that was all she could say about her own sister to defend her against everything Thomas said..
And she doesn’t “own” her behaviour UNTIL she gets CAUGHT!! It’s too late to own it then!! What else is she going to say or do.. she can’t deny it?? And even then, she owns, then blames someone or something else for it?? Seriously 🤦♀️🤦♀️
Wait, hold on, did you just say something about the writers being at fault, which is totally contradicting what you have been saying, that when we bring up the writers it’s our way of excusing for our defence, now you are saying the same thing?? I’m confused love??🤣🤣🤣
I still think Ridge will come crawling back to Brooke once he finds out the truth. And if he does, then the marriage imploding for reasons other than Thomas’s fake phone call to CPS will be moot. I think Ridge is disgusted with the idea that Brooke is lying to his face, or so he believes. In his heart he knows he has treated both Brooke and Taylor horribly. But he has been allowed to get away with it by two women who should clearly have more self-respect than to let jerk-off Ridge take advantage of them like that. I hope Bill buys the white stallion and rides in soon to rescue Brooke from slime-ball Ridge!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
And Brooke has every reason not to trust Thomas. He has proved to be a psycho over and over again. And Brooke didn’t even know Thomas was in on the champagne bottle switch. You all said Thomas deserves to have Douglas back because he has changed. He hasn’t changed one bit. Brooke knows Thomas better than Ridge knows Thomas!
And I seem to recall Brooke was planning on telling Ridge about the drunken Deacon kiss, but Ridge kept interrupting her and wouldn’t let her talk. He kept repeating…it’s not your fault, it’s not your fault. And then more time went by and she became committed to the lie….primarily because of the extended timing. Her gut told her to tell him. And I know she tried at least once, maybe more.
And I do not recall Hope assuming Brooke made the call. She may have asked if Brooke brought CPS….mom did you make the call? But I’m sure Hope believed her mom when she told her she did not. But I honestly don’t even remember that scene happening.
Lynn, she had been lying to Ridge for MONTHS before she “planned” on telling him.. and she planned on telling him because was so supportive of her she felt bad.. That doesn’t cut it either.. Thomas had issues with Sheila from the get home about it, and he had only known for 3 days, and was about to tell Ridge and Steffy overheard him telling Sheila he was going to tell his dad.. then steffy went straight to Sheila and got shot.. after that, that was the last thing on Thomas’s mind with his brother in law killed and his sister fighting for her life.. He did not intend to keep that secret.. He knew for 3 days only, and on the third day, he told Sheila he is going to tell his dad what she did.. but then he got the call about Finn and steffy before he could.. he didn’t lie for months.. He was not comfortable with it no matter how hard Sheila tried to keep him quiet, and you know that Lynn, so at that point, he was about to prove he did change but didn’t get the chance.. I Brooke was at him non stop about Douglas, hammered him.. It was NOT her business.. simple.. And Hope didn’t say it outright Lynn, but was soooo obvious she thought it was her mother.. a two year old could tell that.. And she basically told bBrooke to butt out and back off..
And no, Brooks had no reason to think Thomas hadn’t changed.. Like her own daughter told her, he has done nothing but good, up till the point he called cps.. he got Liam out of prison for gods sake, he could have left him there to rot and took his opportunity with Hope.. But no, and Liam would have been in prison for 30 plus years, if it wasn’t for Thomas.. Brooke had NO issues with Thomas, until he wanted to step up and be a better father.. But Brooke had to do what she ALWAYS does, and stick her nose in, and keep it there where it didn’t belong.. manipulating to make Thomas look like he is a danger to his son, that is not far off of what Thomas did to her.. When Brooke wants something she does what ever it takes.. And she doesn’t advise, she TELLS EVERYONE around her how it’s going to be.. She undermines Hope and scares the crap out of her to get her to comply.. like with the knife.. She scared the hell out of Hope, thinking Douglas was in danger, and made the knife out to be a samauri sword, not a pocket knife that fits in your pocket and conveniently left out he was cutting a bloody apple.. Lynn we will have to agree to disagree on this one, because no matter which way it’s spun, Brooke took it way too far.. And she wonders why she is at where she is..
And ridge interrupting her when she tried to tell him, what a load of crock, that should not have stopped her.. Any normal person would say please be quiet because I have something important you need to hear, let me tell u!! That’s it..
Colly and Lynn, I enjoyed your little banter. You both brought up some really good points. The only thing I have to add is that if Brooke did not push her way into Thomas and Hopes' business regarding Douglas, and if she did not enter Thomas' home and start leveling threats against him, Thomas would not have done what he did. His actions were not psychotic like in the past, it was a reaction to what Brooke did. He wanted his parents back together however, he was not as involved or determined as his sister was until Brooke showed up at his home. That's when he decided to do what he did. Not that it's right but anyone (even in real life) who is constantly being attacked by someone will retaliate in some way or form eventually.
I’m off to work so don’t have time for any long response. Colly, I think your timelines are WAAAY off! I don’t think it was months and months before Brooke told Ridge about the Deacon kiss. And I don’t think it was 3 days that Thomas kept the secret about the champagne bottle switch. Thomas would have never told. His conversation was simply overheard by Steffy. He had become more and more comfortable with the ruse just like every other underhanded thing he does. And there have been multiple kisses that Ridge has participated in that he STILL HASN’T told Brooke about. I do not think your arguments hold water.
Colly, honestly I don’t even know why we go back and forth on this stuff. Neither one of us is gonna change the other’s mind. I think we could start our own soap opera - “The Argumentative And The Stubborn”. Lol !!!
Elle, thank you for trying to be neutral. That was nice.
Colly, I just read your comment about me commenting on the writers’ misogynistic tone. That is not the same as blaming the writers for a specific incident or behavior from one of the characters you favor and don’t want to be seen in a bad light. Like Thomas’s latest greatest phone app voice recording debacle. Pretty sure everyone on this blog agrees that the writing makes the women in general look pathetic on the show. But if the writers choose to make Brooke kiss Finn, as an example, I am not gonna blame the specific kiss on bad writing. Like I said - we ALL agree the men look like super heroes on this soap and they make women look pathetic and needy. It needs to stop!
Yes love , I completely agree with you.. I think there needs to be some strong women on the writing team, because garauntee did there is none now, because they would not put up with the misogynistic tone the show has!!
Brooke walking into Quinn’s home and calling her every name in the book, ordering her to leave town etc for NO reason and physically striking Shauna is out of control! It was completely unprovoked… Brooke was furious with Ridge over Thomas and wanted Eric with Donna because Brooke doesn’t think Quinn is good enough!
Brooke spent months pushing Donna to break up a marriage because Quinn was from Las Vegas … apparently Brooke forgets she wasn’t born in the Forrester mansion 😂.
I was so into today's episode, until they showed Deacon and Sheila. And her sitting on his lap like they are teenagers. Yuck! I hope the missing steaks and liquor get Deacon fired. Brooke should release some of her anger and frustration by slapping Steffy one good time. I wonder if that Othello might kidnap Brooke or something.
I'm not sure but I think maybe Othello and Steffy will put something in place (maybe romantic) for Ridge and Taylor in such a way that Brooke will witness it. I've been hearing about a spoiler regarding Brooke seeing Ridge and Taylor together and Steffy having something to do with it.
Why is it so hard to understand why the show must keep the only 2 original actors and few original characters of the show, prominent. Of course Thomas did it. His reaction to the CPS was obvious. He was only addressing Brookes treatment of his dad. Please. He should have been so furious with Brooke that he'd have raced to her house to confront her. The visit was not about Brooke and Ridge. It was about Thomas and Douglas. Thomas only reacted to Ridge being betrayed. Not a normal reaction. The way Ridge handled this, neither woman should want him. He is lying to both of them.
Thomas' focus, for some time now, has been on reuniting his parents. His lack of anger with the call and his focus on how his fathers relationship with Brooke could be affected by the call was not strange EVEN IF Brooke had actually made the call. This is because his glee for his parents to reunite was greater than whatever anger he might have felt. I can't say that his lack of anger was a sign that he was the one who set up the call.
Not to mention he and Ridge couldn’t say anything about the call without getting their former employee fired from his job!!! They heard a confidential call, he could never have gone to confront Brooke. He and Ridge never told Taylor and Steffy about Brooke’s threats or the CPS visit!
That just shows even further how slimy, selfish and shitty Thomas is. He set up his friend to get fired if it gets out. Thomas cares about no one but himself, just like his cackling hen sister!! If I have to hear one more time from Steffy about “her family” I’m gonna 🤮🤮🤮!!!!
Seriously why have Thomas work so hard over those months just to see him go back to his old ways...come on bill you could've written this differently..now Thomas will loose everything including Douglas.. Taylor ridge will run back to Brooke the minute he finds out what Thomas did. I swear I'm so tired if watching this... All Taylor is to ridge is a rebound chick I wish she would've known that after all those years with the back and forth between she and ridge
Same old Taylor story line she can enjoy being the Rebound till , Thomas once again come out and left like thefish out of water , while Brooke is made the victim , spare me the BS repeated story line already!!
I’m cracking up reading the comments. Last week there were soooooo many Thomas fans saying he absolutely didn’t do it!! Now that we all know he did do it, those very same fans have found every excuse in the book….consisting of : Well he was pushed to the brink. So he was justified. Or…Oh it doesn’t matter because Ridge was on his way out of the marriage anyway. Or my personal favorite…..It’s all the writers’ fault for making Thomas the bad guy again, while the Logans are the victims. Lol The Forrester fans just can’t admit that the character Thomas is once again guilty of a really despicable act and he is guilty - just like the show led us to believe! Thomas is a bad egg!!! And Karma is gonna hit him and his cackling hen sister in the face - hard!!!
Lynn it's all Brooke's fault 😂😂 Thomas and Steffy and Ridge can do whatever royal crap, people here will always make it about Brooke. Or if they can't directly, there's always the good old "What about that time when Brooke...". "Thomas pushed a person off the road? What about when Brooke slept with Deacon" 😂😂😂
I don't think anyone is making excuses. I personally would always admit what I see her doing, the fact that I say Sheila drugged Brooke with alcohol is not anything anyone didn't see. I'm not saying that Brooke is justified in kissing anyone.
Plus like I've said before, I see a world of difference between the heaviness of a kiss versus actually setting out to hurt someone like what Thomas is doing. Comparing the two is a bit naive.
Milla, you are one of the few objective people on this blog. I've said this before so my comment wasn't about you specifically. Generally however, many excuses are made for Brooke, in like fashion, as the OP has stated have been made for Thomas.
Brooke always makes “mistakes” that must be forgiven… really when it’s the millionth time over decades, how is it a mistake??? Call it what it is… a pattern, a serial cheater who has all her life made a sport of destroying other women’s marriages and lives. A narcissistic bully, that’s Brooke!
The Brooke fans weren’t dug in saying she didn’t do something that she in fact did. You ladies were singing Thomas’s praises. How he deserves Douglas because he had completely changed. And how he was innocent !!! But none of that turned out to be true. So now the Brooke fans get to hear for days and days that it’s the writers’ fault !!!!! Name one time a Logan fan has blamed “the writers”!!! It’s such a cop out!!
And yes, Milla….the “look over there, there’s something shiny” is a very common ploy by the Forrester fans. I keep saying that Brooke is not the same person she was years ago. But the Forrester fans would sooner cut off their toes than admit that. I like to live in the present. And in the present, the Forresters suck big time!!! Oh and I don’t think Brooke and Liam will ever hook up!! I don’t know who came up with that mad theory. Nor have I ever given any credence to the idea that Hope will fall for Thomas. It’s just not ever gonna happen!!!
Lynn, Brooke hasn't actually changed that much from who she was in the past. Yes, she has not slept with a married man or railroaded someone's marriage but the fact that she kissed Bill which lead to him and Katie splitting up was indeed due to her and Bill's actions. Encouraging her sister to go after Eric just because she wanted Quinn out of his life shows she hasn't changed because she still did not respect the fact that Eric was still married. Encouraging Hope to reclaim Liam knowing that he and Steffy were engaged and she was pregnant also shows that Brooke has not changed much from the past because she still does not see a committed relationship as anything sacred. She led Hope to purposely break up that family just like she did to Ridge, Taylor and their family in the past. And not to mention, her selfish behaviour where everything is always about her! Just like it was in the past - me, me, me, me.
I think Brooke has simmered somewhat from what she used to be however, she has not changed that much. She never learns and therefore cannot change. She still self-destructs then wants everyone's forgiveness claiming that she will do better. But she never does.
Elle, after Quinn sabotaged Brooke’s marriage by trying to get Shauna and Ridge together, and Quinn’s planning of the drunken wedding night in Vegas, I don’t think Brooke was feeling too sorry for Quinn with regard to the Donna affair. As I’ve said many times, I didn’t see the years you ladies refer to. But I think Brooke has given Ridge far more commitment than he deserves. I like the person Brooke is today. I think she should have dumped Ridge long ago, but other than that I think she’s pretty awesome! Like I told Colly, no one is changing anyone’s opinions on these blogs.
Yes I know Lynn. It merely goes to show that the Maroney fans will always believe just what they want to. It also shows what revolting people they are. I`m actually finding myself feeling somewhat sorry for Taylor, even she doesn`t really deserve pity. She knows perfectly well that history has shown she is only going to get hurt again. I`m hoping like hell that Bill hears of this really quickly so he can ride in on his white horse and that Brooke and he will end up together again...permanently this time!! The guy hiding in the bushes overheard Ridge tell Brooke that he will always love her. He wasn`t hiding there hearing that for no reason, poor stupid Taylor. Run girl and don`t stop because this is going to all blow up soon and another round of devastation in store for you! I`m just really, really hoping that by this time Bill has made Brooke see sense and she refuses to go back to waffler. I want to see Brooke happy with someone who loves her without judgement, because Ridge is in no position to judge anyone, because he has been a prime arse in his time to Brooke, the wife he has cheated on in the past. It`s just awful that Taylors self absorbed, self centred, childish, revolting children have both both set her up for more pain!!
So true about the judgment Maur. Ridge and his whole family are judgmental hypocrites (oddly only Taylor is kinda keeping a higher ground, doesn't lash out against Brooke so viciously... yet) and Bill is in this regard so refreshing. And funny. Romantic... Just better.
Milla, we've already established that this version of Taylor portrayed by Krista is not the real Taylor. The real Taylor would have been up in Brooke's face already and not just watching from the sidelines. 😂😂😂😂
Isn't Othello under Bill's employ? So why would he be reporting what happened between Ridge and Brooke to Steffi? I think he was asked by Bill to keep an eye on Brooke.
I'm not sure that Othello ever worked for Bill. He came onto the show as a DJ and was a part of the Steffy/Liam storyline back in the day when they would frequent Aspen. He and Steffy were friends.
Bill is keeping an eye on the situation because he doesn't want to commit to Katie, if Brooke will be available. However, I think Bill will eventually end up with Finn's Momma. I hope so. This soap recycled story on lines adnaseum. 😆
Can’t believe that these grandmas and grandpa are still obsessed with each other. Ridge does not love either of them and they should really know this by now, and just move on. This is not love it is an addiction between all three of them. They have been too many marriages between them that never works. There is no trust, and all three are so insecurity with their pairings. Both women always want what they can’t have. They will never have trust and security with Ridge.
@Fanny. Over here we can't stream from CBS.com . It comes up with a country code error. I'd have to d/l a VPN app. to watch it. I'll have to wait for Bob to upload it.
I don't consider myself Team Logan/Brooke OR Team Forrester/Taylor. Currently the only characters on the show I like are Hope, Eric, Finn, Carter, and Zende. Oh and Wyatt. And neither Brooke nor Taylor should want Ridge. Ugh! Ladies, have some dignity. He will continue to go back and forth because they let him. Yawn.
D, on this thread, of Wednesday the 12th October, your date, not mine, there was a new episode, but on the Thursday 13th which is the next date in your time, there was no episode.. on this days, the 12th, it was a continuation of Brooke and Ridge talking, and Ridge broke it off with her and walked away.. Taylor left the room to go for a walk, to prepare herself if Brooke convinced him to stay with her.. Then he went looking for Taylor, while Brooke sat at in a chair outside the house, feeling sorry for herself.. While Ridge was looking for Taylor, Steffy went outside to confront Brooke and make it clear to her, that Ridge, chose her mother, and came to her, in other words it was his choice, and hit her with some home truths about goodness and dignity win out in the end, then warned her not to interfere in her mothers relationship like she has always done in the past.. Then Ridge found Taylor, told her he wants a life full of love and happiness and honesty, and that he wants a life with her, and asked if that’s ok, to which she said yes, then it showed Brooke walking away on the Bridge and leaning over the rail crying.. that was it!! ❤️❤️ It’s Friday here which is your Thursday, so tomorrow will be my Saturday, which should show the missed episode, which you should still get on your Friday.. does that make sense? The missed episode is your Thursday.. so you should get a new episode on your Friday.. ❤️❤️❤️
Lol 😂 🤣 . Yes it makes sense. But on today's blog ( the 13th) Unknown made a comment that in Australia there was an episode today? Doesn't take much to confuse this old girl. Lol
That’s on one of our free television channels here in Australia.. if I watch it now, I won’t have anything to watch tomorrow and it’s roughly your bed time over there.. if I do watch it, I will email u what happened.. did you miss one or two episodes, because you said that this day, on this thread you got a repeat?? So have you missed this days with a repeat and no show at all on the next days, Thursday as well?
Also D, even though I am a day ahead of you, if I watch it on this blog like I normally do, my week of b&b starts on Tuesday here through to Saturday.. if I watch on out free television channel I would know what happens before u do, and if I posted, I would be commenting on a day earlier, then yous all would know before u even watched, that’s why I wait till tuesdays, so I am commenting on the same days episodes and don’t spoil it for yous!!
That was Othello. He has been a staple on the show whenever they do the on-location shoots in Aspen. He used to be a DJ. Not sure what he does now. Some have stated that he is Bill's driver.
So I really hope we're done with the "Thomas didn't even know about the ..." discussions. They do speak without us knowing, spread the news!
ReplyDeleteMilla - right??!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Delete😂😂😂 I know right? Why do people assume that nothing happens off screen? It couldn't be more plain that THOMAS CALLED CPS
DeleteThomas will always be a monster- Someone will find out what he did!!
ReplyDeleteThomas is horrible but in an exciting way. Ridge, I never say this to a person, but I hate you. You deserve all the cruelty coming your way. When you can't even open your stupid mouth to say what's your problem, but just walk away, you don't deserve anyone. And Steffy you'll eat your gloating ten times. Just you wait.
ReplyDeleteBrooke you're free now. Free from this worthless waste of skin and his crazy children. You'll cry for some time and you'll see it. You'll also see (we so hope) a real man in front of you.
Deacon I hope Sheila vomits on you.
Good, let Bill or Liam have her!! Bet you none of you would trust Brooke around your husbands or boyfriends in real life!!!! Rick is just as twisted and evil as Thomas, who has every right to load that witch. Ridge scarred his children for life.
DeleteAll of the Forrester men except for Thomas has a sick obsession for that "over the hill wanna be sex symbol!" That goes for her home wrecker tramp sister Donna too. It makes so no sense that the Logan's are viewed as heroines. They are nothing but men stealing, gold digging, disgusting vamps!
I will take Shelia and Quinn anyday over them. I wish they would team up and do some serious damage to those witches!! I refuse to watch Thomas being sacrificed once again for the "Hogans!"
Ah Sheila will do some damage but not to Brooke 😂 Stuffy, brace yourself.
DeleteOk, let's not get crazy now, Valinda. I was with you up till "I will take Sheila..." 😂 Everything else... brava!!! Well said!!!
Delete@Milla, totally agree 👍 Ridge is reprehensible
DeleteValinda, 🤣🤣🤣I agree with Elle, I wouldn’t take Sheila 🤣🤣🤣
DeleteMilla, you are right, Ridge does deserve all the crap coming his way, if he goes back to Brooke after the reveal!!
DeleteReally ! No more Ridge and Brooke, all because of Douglas again and a lie. Common Ridge be honest with Brooke ...
ReplyDeleteNo more Ridge and Brooke because of Brooke!
Delete@ Elle, if what you say is true, then Ridge will stay with Taylor even after he finds out what evil Thomas did in impersonating Brooke. But we both know Ridge will be begging for Brooke’s forgiveness as soon as he finds out the truth. So not true what you said. It is Thomas’s fault for sure. But I hope this convinces Brooke that Ridge isn’t worth another second of her life and she moves on for good when Ridge comes groveling back to her!!
DeleteThe way I see it Lynn, Thomas did what he did to get his parents back together. Why was he able to succeed in what he did? Because Ridge's and Brooke's marriage was already fractured. Why was their marriage fractured? Because Brooke kissed Deacon, lied about it then chose to defend Deacon rather than support her husband.
DeleteAnd even if we don't go that far back in time to Brooke's mistake, we can look at Brooke insinuating herself in Thomas and Hope's business where parenting of Douglas is concerned. She went too far and even stated that she was willing to do "whatever it takes" to get Douglas back home with Hope and Liam. I said it before and I'll say it again.... Brooke should have just let sleeping dogs lie. She brought this on herself.
And I still believe it was her plan all along to goad Thomas into doing something like this. She pushed and pushed and pushed until he cracked. She should not cry foul now.
Elle, 👏👏👏 I agree 💯.. Like I’ve said, people forget, that her marriage imploded well before the cps thing.. that was just the last straw.. Brooks manipulated, made threats, and pushed Thomas to the brink.. It’s so easy for people to blame Thomas, and ignore the fact their marriage was already in major trouble.. when Brooke said to Ridge, is it bill , deacon, he specifically said, it’s all of that.. cos was just the last straw..
Delete@brenda, why are you blaming Douglas? All he did, was tell the truth of what he saw, is that so wrong of a young child?? If so, then what do you think of what Brooke did?? And how she tried to hush Douglas up?? Wow, you gonna blame Douglas for that?? And is it Douglas’s fault also that he is caught between this war that BROOKE created?? Wow!! So Brookes a bloody saint hey??
Deletewell said elle everthing that has happened has been because the relationship with brooke and ridge was way cracked before otherwise it would of been strong and not faultered over this. i think if the truth comes out he will stay with taylor after seeing how happy he is and how honest there relationship is he is done with brooke she is going to go sleep with liam anyway and ruin her other daughters life
DeleteAgreed ladies! For Ridge he’s looking T decades of Brooke lying one eyed crying and repeating the same behaviour a million times over.
DeleteI really didn’t like the way she just tells Ridge to get on the plane, that she won’t ALLOW this to be over etc. He was so disgusted when she was ordering him around and realized he usually obeys her!
Their marriage was in name only. He avoided her constantly and spends all his time defending her bad behaviour to others.
The fact her magic nether regions are no longer a siren song for him (Eric sadly will always be trapped by it) allows him to actually look at the reality of his life with her. To see the toxic cycle for what it is!
She should be glad he’s setting her free… run lassie run!
Well kinda feel sorry for Brooke but she hurt Taylor the same way same way.So now it's Taylor's time.
ReplyDeleteWhy are people feeling bad for Brooke lol, she's done ten times worse than what Thomas did here hahaha
ReplyDeleteVery true!
DeleteShe has done a hundred times worse.. its good to see her dumped for a change.. if she had not have attacked Thomas, to get Douglas back, so they “couldn’t use him as a lure”, her words, and MANIPULATED, and made threats, to make Thomas look so bad over something so petty, such as using a samauri sword to cut an apple, this might not have happened.. What Thomas did is absolutely NOTHING, compared to what Brooke has done to come between Ridge and Taylor!! She faked pregnancies and misscarages and tried to seduce him every opportunity she got, over and over, and stopped at nothing, to get her way, so I don’t sympathise with her one bit.. When Brooke wants something, there’s nothing she wouldn’t do to get it..
DeleteAgreed! Brava ladies… I have no sympathy for her… her first words are that whatever he’s promised Taylor he should just walk out and go off with Brooke! She is perfectly happy to destroy Taylor and gloat about it. Karma is a biatch and she’s coming for you Brooke.
DeleteRegardless of what Thomas did, that marriage has been over for a long time, Ridge finally put it the tomb where it belongs!
@Colly Amen. She's just as manipulative as Thomas, and not to victimize him but he was spot on when he said "wonder where I got it from". He's seen her snakey behavior his whole life - child see, child do. The fact she suggested Hope should use the CPS thing to her advantage shows us she hasn't changed a bit like the Logan worshippers keep parroting. Even Hope rolled her eyes at that.
DeleteI honestly am not surprised he snapped, or that he didn't sooner, the way Brooke has been lurking about HOPING Thomas slips up and she can swoop down and steal his only child away. Imagine they killed Caroline off, and turned Douglas' only other bio parent into a "lunatic" and he loses them both to become a prop for boring hypocritical characters... well, we can. And that little boy is going to have to endure same vicious cycle of abuse as Thomas (and Steffy) watching Brooke's behavior, and Lope's toxic relationship... tragic and quite frankly obnoxious writing.
And the other thing that Brooks fans have ignored, is that even Hope’s first thought was that Brooke did it!! So what does that say!! But Brooke fans won’t admit that her behaviour causes the people closest to her, to automatically assume it was her.. Again, the boy who cried wolf!! Hope finally stood up to her mother and basically told her to back off and butt out!! Again, what does that say!! The look on Hopes face , when Brooke said, you can use this to your advantage to get Douglas back, I don’t think Hope was impressed..
DeleteOh Thomas, you twisted lunatic….you can’t just let your dad decide who he wants to be with, because you know damn well the only way he leaves Brooke is if you trick him. Your have zero faith in Giggles!!!
ReplyDeleteRidge seemed very sad telling Steffy about Brooke.
If Ridge wants a life filled with honesty, he needs to disown his son immediately!
Steffy - can’t wait for Karma to smack the crap out of you and your evil brother. And Ridge should die old and alone!!! Narcsssic POS!!!
Deacon and Sheila gross me out!!
*Narcissistic POS
DeleteThomas is no more of a lunatic than Rick, Bill, Brooke, or Liam. You Logan worshippers kill me. If Ridge once again turns on his son for that slut and hurts Taylor, he deserves all the pain that is coming his way!!!
DeleteI refuse to watch this Brooke is an innocent victim crap. True fans such as myself know the real truth about the "slut from the valley!" Sick of the Logan show for real!! Enough writers already!!
I agree Valinda.. Brooke has done worse in her past.. but it’s always Brookes the victim.. so over it!!
DeleteValinda, The Forresters are all obnoxious, entitled jerks. Every single one of them, except Eric. Everyone likes Eric. Brooke is no victim. She’s a rockstar!! She is not the person you guys describe at all. She is an upper-middle-aged lady who handles herself with dignity and grace. She hasn’t been screwing around with any married men for literally years!! You Forrester fans seriously need to get over it!!! The Brooke you all describe is NOTHING like the person she is today!
DeleteI am not a huge Donna fan, she’s just OK. And I don’t see Katie enough to have too much of an opinion. I do like Hope, but Brooke is my favorite for sure! The Brooke fans are here to stay! 😁😁😁😁
Just because someone doesn't share your opinions Valinda doesn't mean they're not a true fan. That's a ridiculous attitude, that my way or the highway mentality. If you hate the show so much, why keep watching?
DeleteYES Lynn!!! Love it🙌🙌
DeleteVery true Lynn! It's amazing when we have to read this pseudo hate here when we all know that most people watch exactly because of Brooke. Many "haters" don't even really root for someone, they just root for her to suffer so that they can tell the same story again and again how she slept with this that and other. Well sorry to disappoint you, but there's a reason she's stayed for 35 years, unlike anyone. She never left the show or fake died or "moved to Paris" (that's almost like the "farm upstate" version of the show 😂). And she will stay for as long as KKL wants the role. Because without her you people have next to nothing to discuss. Taylor and her insane, hypocritical prodigy can't swing it by a long shot. Not to mention that excuse of a man their father. Without her he's nothing, always has been from episode one. Brooke is bold and beautiful and without her and all her colorful, exciting , frustrating at times quest for love there is simply no show.
Delete@Hilary, even by the fact that we are Brooke lovers and not haters, we win. Love always wins.
DeleteMilla, you say a lot of the haters don’t root for anyone, they just root for her to suffer, so they can bring up all her bad behaviour?? Well if that’s the case, then you have to ask yourself, doesn’t that say a lot about Brooke then?? That all those haters that are not even rooting for someone, but r hating on Brooke anyway because she is who she is..!
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteThat's exactly my point Colly - that Brooke is the center of the show, for both loving and hating viewers :) I see her as exciting, you as awful, but we're only looking at and for her :)
DeleteYes, when we can't defend Brooke's actions, we'll just highlight her supposed importance to the show. We all know that without Brooke, the bold and the beautiful will be dead. Hmm, they used to say the same thing about Stephanie. Even gave the show a year or 2 of survival post-Stephanie yet, hear we are many years later.
DeleteY'all Brooke supporters act like she's some underdog when she's just a dog. It's not that the Taylor/Steffy/Thomas supporters don't root for anyone. We have our faves that we root for indeed. It's just that we are more objective when they make mistakes or do wrong. We can admit to their faults. The Brooke supporters however, don't do the same. They either make excuses for her behavior, deflect by saying how important she is to the show or go silent.
I've seen on this very blog that once there is no storyline that involves Brooke, her supporters would rarely post anything and even then, it's only a few. The ones who, it is claimed, don't root for anyone are the ones who continue to discuss the show and whatever storyline is going on. This is why Valinda can refer to "true fans of the show." If Brooke were to leave, it's not her haters who will stop watching or commenting, that's for sure.
KKL never left because this show is her bread and butter so, of course, her character stuck around. She has tried other acting projects outside of this show but was not very successful. But I guess it is a good thing because it gave the writers the opportunity to beat Brooke into the ground and then some.
Elle I haven't seen much admission of Steffys and Thomas's wrongdoings here, quite the opposite it's always pushed on Brooke. People can't even admit he pushed that girl off a road or that Steffy slept her way through the Spencer family multiple times. It's always "what about Brooke?" Or "what about Hope" (as a Brooke extension) when someone calls out those things.
DeleteBrooke is not an underdog she's a queen of daytime drama. I'd like to see a statistic of the comments here and elsewhere on storylines involving and not involving Brooke, I'm sure the numbers will be quite far apart. And haters and supporters are equally involved because you see to every statement of attack, we respond right back.
So now what is the last statement - are "the writers always propping up Brooke/the Logan's" or beating her into the ground? Because I read both here.
I personally don't see highlighting how important she is for the show as opposition to admitting her faults. I think they go hand in hand like I said above! It's because of those "faults" we have a show and because of them we actually have half of the characters on this show.
DeleteLook at how much time you guys are spending lashing against her (for us it's clear we do too)
This comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteI think its not a question of whether Brooke made mistakes, I think we all know the answer YES. The difference of attitudes stems from the answer we would give to the question of "should Brooke not have done all that she did?". You would say "she shouldn't have because it's wrong". I would say "she should have because it creates exciting storylines and discussions".
DeleteMilla, it's the very same thing that happens when Brooke behaves badly. Her wrongdoings are pushed on Thomas or Steffy or Taylor or Ridge or Sheila. Don't act like that's not true. People cannot even admit that Brooke made a hobby out of destroying people's marriages without saying "well, Taylor slept with the same men Brooke has." They will never admit that the demise of Brooke's marriage is because of her own actions without blaming Steffy and Taylor for interfering and trying to break up Ridge and Brooke even though their marriage was already shattered by Brooke herself.
DeleteI don't have to see statistics of comments on storylines with Brooke vs without Brooke because I've witnessed it myself right here on this very board during the Quinn/Carter/Paris storyline and the Deacon/Sheila storyline after the shooting. Total comments on the show each day was between the 50s and 60s compared to the 100+ comments whenever Brooke is involved. And I am pretty sure that Bob can confirm same.
Even as simple as when Brooke is getting in Hope's way or Brooke and Liam are spending way too much time together or when Hope is confronting her mother, the Brooke supporters remain silent. But as soon as she starts rising to the top again, here comes the "Brooke is queen or Brooke will always win."
Maybe you need to pay more attention.
Actually I think I should pay less attention 😅 spending too much time on this show/blog anyway. I'm the one who drives up the statistics of Brooke comments so high so I'll just stay silent.
Delete@ Milla - please don’t stay silent!! I love that you are here and add your insight! You are a very valuable contributor. 🌺🌷🥰
DeleteMe to Milla! It is clear to me that you are intelligent and well spoken, and understand that soap operas are supposed to bring drama! If everything went perfect and everyone was happy, it would be boring and I wouldn't watch it!
Delete❤️❤️❤️ you're so wonderful ladies! I'll definitely pop by to read you and will chime in! Already feel connected 🤗🤗
DeleteMilla - A while back I went through the same thing and felt like the blog was starting to cause me stress. I stopped commenting for just over a month. Then I said, screw it! I’m just gonna speak my mind and I don’t care who likes what I have to say! 😁😁
DeleteSo I hope you chime in frequently!
There is something else going on here. Why did they keep showing Bill's driver lurking in the bushes?
ReplyDeleteHopefully to report to Bill so he get get on his way to Brooke 🤗
DeleteAh I remember I read he'll be helping Steffy organize sth romantic for Taylor and jerkface.
Delete@Millia I'm sure that was it is, spying so that he can get his Brooke. I just watched some upcoming promo where Katie and Bill are having lunch together and Bill begs for Katie back, but she doesn't trust him, and I wouldn't trust him either because he has shown lately that Brooke is still on his mind and Katie is NO dummy
DeleteAh so that must be where the Il giardino bit was taken from that was part of the Talk promo that came on for a second.
DeleteBut also seems to me that Katie has her sights still on Carter, if that spoiler is true:
"Bold & Beautiful spoilers for Friday, October 14:
Carter confesses the truth about Katie to Quinn. But will it be the dire truth we predicted?"
The answer is probably yes, nobody has stood in Quinn's way and didn't suffer the consequences 🙈 she's always been a Sheila Light.
D I thought that was really odd too? Bill knows nothing about what’s happened so why would he have him lurking like that?? That was creepy..
DeleteIs that who that was? Yes kind of weird that they showed him lurking, something is definitely going on there
Delete@Milia I think Katie is sick and tired of wondering if Bill would be a sincere and honest man to her, and Carter has probably made her feel that she can trust him to be good to her.
Delete@Elizabeth it's Milla, just one i 😀😀
DeleteBut Carter and Quinn no more hot and heavy? I didn't care about them but seemed strong.
@ Milia Sorry about that my screen sees things in small prints, thanks for telling me. Well, as for Carter and Quinn their love life certainly burnt out. their flame certainly died quickly. I guess Quinn is losing her touch
DeleteNo worries Elizabeth I was sure that's the case with it. Milla - one i, two LLs. Not Milia 😂
DeleteI missed when Carter and Quinn fizzled... but I guess you're right.
The actress who plays Quinn left the show suddenly due to contract negotiations not working out. It's not that she and Carter fizzled, it's that the character is no longer in the show. Now, they're gonna fabricate some asinine plot about Carter and Katie who spent all of 2 seconds in each other's company.
DeleteElle LOL that's true! But of course for us Brooke fans quite welcome, Katie will be with a good gorgeous man who never wanted her sister and Bill will be able to pursue Brooke ❤️
DeleteKatie will be with a good, gorgeous, much younger man. Let's not forget that! Because noone forgot that he was much younger when he and Quinn were together.
DeleteAh I actually forgot that, but after the whole love octagon that got going starting with Eric and ending with Zende, it seems age is just a number in general here 😅
DeleteFirst off, thank you so much Bob. Secondly, all of this Thomas is so "evil" and deserves cosmic justice, is so silly and stupid. Where is Rick's karma? Bill's? Deacon's? Donna's? Brooke? And so on and so on. You people act like Brooke is some innocent "wallflower" or something.
ReplyDeleteThis woman boinked one daughter's boyfriend. Got pregnant by her son-n-law, and brother-in-law!! Yet, she and Ridge have this great love affair lol.lol. Give me a break!! I would not let Brooke within 100 feet of my husband and neither would any of you "Logan" lovers!!!!
We true fans of BNB are sick and tired of the "Hogan" show. Who wants to watch this train wreck of a show now? I mean really? Ridge, if you go back to that woman, you deserve more pain and heartache that is coming your way. Taylor, you deserve a man who only loves you. Steffy, finally broke her cycle with that loser Liam. Now it is your turn. Eric, Donna, Bill, Liam, Deacon, and the rest of the "Hogan" cult members can all take a long walk off of a short pier.
I will defend the Forresters to the end. I just refuse to watch this predictable storyline any further!! Shame on Bell for making Thomas lie down on the sword once again for the "witches from the valley!"
I don't usually read spoilers but I think I will start doing so to determine which episode I should watch.
DeleteAgree with everything you said Valinda.. I wish Taylor stuck to her guns.. I didn’t feel sorry for Brooks one iota!! Karma!! Even she was nodding her head to what Steffy was saying.. And I would love to see a Brooks fan, be besties with Brooke when she has no man in her life, and see if they feel secure with their husbands 🤣🤣🤣 Brooks is the furthest from a Saint, than anyone on the show.. Karma is a biatch.. she can see what it’s like when the shoe is on the other foot now!! It’s not nice having someone disrespect and come between you and your husband, is it Brooke!! You should have kept out of what was NOT your business.. But having said that.. I don’t want Taylor with Ridge.. Why can’t they find her a man, like they did for Steffy?? Instead of recycling the same BS.. And there goes a Hope and Thomas hook up.. I was really hoping for that!! Why can’t the writers come up with something new, instead of recycling?? This show is sinking fast..
Delete100% agree, although I do wish Ridge and Taylor will stay together like Stephanie wanted all those years ago.❤️ She knew what was best for her son!
DeleteWhat I find so amusing, is that, even the writers know exactly who Brooke is, and as much as it seems as though they favour her, they have written the dialogue, to describe her exactly the same way that I and others see her.. Interesting!!
DeleteOh bloody hell, Ridge! If you love Brooke so much, why are you making promises to Taylor???
ReplyDeleteIt is clear that Ridge's heart is torn. He needs to stay by himself for a while instead of running away from one toward the other one. And, for the life of me, I do not understand why these women want him so badly. Taylor needed to keep her foot down and let Ridge know that she is not interested in being an option for him to run to. And Brooke, she just needs to put her foot down, period! Alas, she will always fight for Ridge.
As for Thomas, I am sorely disappointed. Yes, the actor plays the hell out of the evil Thomas role, but come on, can't they just move on to another storyline with him where his acting can shine just as much? Tired of this.
@Elle I agree Ridge never feels like he is into Taylor, even though she is better for him than the other one. Bell just keeps wasting his time in finding ways to have Ridge and Taylor to be together and then POW! He makes Ridge to break Taylor's heart again. Finally, Taylor stood up for herself and then she back into Ridge's trap again, and now it's a matter of time that we are going see Thomas be exposed and Ridge will dump Taylor again and I will assume that Steffy will feel regrets later of pushing her dad back to mom and be worried about her mother leaving town again.
DeleteSo true, Elizabeth! Well said!
Delete@Elizabeth you would think that after the previous two epic fails trying to get their parents to tie the knot they would have learned but no. They never regretted it. Those two will keep trying until they are well into their 50s and their parents are fossils.
DeleteRidge is a psychopath, just like Thomas and Steffy. Nobody gets a divorce without sharing the reason to their partner. I hope Brooke finally sees him for what he is and move on with her life.
ReplyDelete🙌🙌
DeleteI don't care who Ridge chooses. When Brooke went into her ugly cry, I felt bad for her as Brooke was blindsided by this & is clueless regarding what she did that caused Ridge to dump her. Brooke is so desperate for an explanation. Ridge totally believes that Brooke called CPS & wants her to to confess it. It is a vivid reminder how important communication is in any relationship.
ReplyDeleteRenee, has she stopped to think this all started with her kissing deacon?? She said to Ridge, is it bill or deacon and he said it’s all of that.. it wasn’t just about the cps thing.. Ridge can’t trust her, simple.. she brought that on herself.. if she hadn’t lied every other time she did something wrong, then maybe Ridge could trust her.. He has been drifting away since he found out about the kiss and deacon his bed.. she may not b responsible for the cps call, but she brought this all on herself.. it really is that simple.. people seem to have forgotten how their marriage imploded in the first place, because she did what she ALWAYS does, cheats then lies, then when caught out cries, begs for forgiveness.. and then it starts all over again… Logan fans have conveniently forgotten how she destroyed her own marriage with deacon.. it’s more convenient to blame Thomas 🤣🤣🤣 take the focus off her bad deeds!!
DeleteAnd Logan fans say, it was just a kiss!! I wonder how many times they could forgive their husbands if they were “just kissing” other women, or as Brooke has done many times, slept with other men, and continuously lied to them until caught out?? could they forgive that over and over.. ?? I don’t think so somehow!! My husband would b out the door never to return after just the first time!!
DeleteRenee, I felt bad for Brooke yesterday and today as well. As you said, she was totally blindsided and Ridge refuses to tell her why he left her in LA and came to Aspen. No woman - not even Brooke - deserves that.
DeleteHaving said that, I also agree with Colly that she brought this on herself. Brooke never learns. She just keeps making the same mistakes over and over and over again. I feel bad for her but I cannot sympathize with her at all. She has done much worse to Taylor in the past.
Yes Renee, but Ridge can only communicate in grunts and eye blinks😂😂😂
DeleteColly, the call to CPS was the final straw. I just think that Ridge should have communicated that. She would deny that she made the call & he would not believe her, but at least she would know why he decided to be with Taylor. Heck, Taylor also deserved to hear the explanation for Ridge deciding to end his marriage & commit to her.
DeleteThe CPS call is exactly what made Ridge go running to Taylor in Aspen. Apparently Ridge can’t stand to be alone for even 5 mins as he pinball’s himself straight to Taylor after he thinks Brooke betrayed him by calling CPS and supposedly lied to him. Ridge is extremely needy and pathetic. 100% guarantee Ridge would not be in Aspen right now chasing Taylor had the call not happened. That’s why the audio of the call keeps playing in Ridge’s head each episode.
DeleteAnd ya, drunk Brooke kissed Deacon once. But Ridge has been establishing a full-on relationship with Taylor and has kissed her many times.
And yes, Brooke had a vulnerable moment and ended up kissing Bill once. But drunk Ridge literally married Shawna and spent lots of one on one time with her.
It seems Ridge always feels the need to ‘one-up’ Brooke. And yet Ridge is free from all blame in the Forrester lover’s eyes. Too funny!
As far as Brooke being around my husband, lol…I personally would have no issue with it. I trust my husband. At the end of the day, the men who cheat are simply willing participants. So I could absolutely be friends with Brooke in real life.
Yeah Ridge is always innocent and lured away by the evil Brooke! What a bunch of patriarchal bullshit. He's a dog that wants whoever happens to be standing next to him. There's such double standards when it comes to the Logan' and Forester women. The Logan's are always slut shamed, but the Forester women always have extenuating circumstances for why they f around.
DeleteHilary, I agree with you where Ridge is a dog wanting whoever!! I wish both Taylor and Brooks would kick his ass to the curb!! Let him learn how to respect a woman!!
DeleteRenee, I agree with you love, he should definitely have spoken to Brooke about everything he was unhappy about and explained his reasons why BEFORE he got on that plane.. even though I don’t like Brooke, what he did was very wrong and unfair to her.. I am not denying that at all!! He is an ass.. I wish they both would kick him to the curb and he end up alone.. then maybe he might realise what an ass he is and how to show woman more respect.. it’s true, the writers are very misogynistic.. They need some strong women on the writing team..
DeleteAh of course he didn't open his mouth, there should be some times of torture, plus that may push Brooke sooner to Bill if he manages to play his cards right and point out with his unique hilarious epithets what a jackass the dressmaker is. Nothing gives me more pleasure than listening to Bill bash on Ridge 😂😂😂
DeleteRidge opened himself to Shauna because of Brooke’s out of control behaviour and giving him ultimatums! He left, she turned to Bill the second he was gone and blamed it on Ridge. She was desperate to cover that up… remember her frantically removing the video from the photo frame and hiding it in a drawer??? She castigated Ridge for Shauna while hiding that fact she made out with Bill, to make it worse Bill had convinced Katie to give him another chance and Brooke once again betrayed her own sister!
Delete@ BBFAN - there was no “out of control behavior by Brooke” when Ridge took up with Shauna. Ridge was supporting Thomas’s bad behavior as usual and Brooke wasn’t having it. He wasn’t standing beside his wife even when Brooke was 100% correct about Thomas like she always is. Ridge even apologized to Brooke later for being wrong. The thing that happened with Shauna and Ridge was way overkill just like everything Ridge does. The kiss with Bill happened once. And they both regretted it immediately. And Brooke apologized to Katie many times for her indiscretion.
DeleteJust because Brooke was upset at Ridge for supporting his son, and the fact she lied like she always does, and got caught out, like she always does, and that she regretted it, like she always does, and that she apologised for her “indiscretion”, many times like she always does, doesn’t excuse her for what she did.. it doesn’t make what she did ok!! Then she did it again!! And worse.. This behaviour has been the same for decades.. she hasn’t changed and if Ridge goes back to Brooks, it will happen again!! You can’t excuse her behaviour any more than I can with what Thomas did.. and saying it was “just a kid” does not make her any better than Thomas.. She accused Taylor of putting her lips on her husband.. But it’s ok for Brooke to put her lips on her sisters husband, and any other man who feeds her ego.. spin it how u like.. Brooke has not changed, and never will.. she is well into her 60’s and still can’t be loyal.. what Ridge did with shauna, was in reaction to what Brooke did.. No it doesn’t make it right, but this is what always happens.. she does something and he reacts..
DeleteColly, she isn’t “well into her 60’s”. I believe she is 61. And by anyone’s standards that is early 60’s. Please don’t exaggerate. I see that time and time again from the Forrester lovers. And it just makes the Logan supporters pounce even harder on your comments. Kissing and having sex are not the same thing. Yes, both are cheating. But I would venture to guess that most women would find intercourse outside of marriage far more insulting than a kiss. And the thing with Ridge and Thomas…neither of them have any regret. NEVER!! They seem proud, or at least perfectly fine with their indiscretions. Moreover, Ridge and Thomas are not reacting in a moment of distress or alcohol induced behavior. That’s just who Thomas and Ridge are…and they keep it up!! It’s not a one-off like the recent Deacon or Bill kisses. There is no “ooops” when it comes to Thomas and Ridge. Ridge has been playing both Giggles and Brooke for MONTHS now!!! No guilt whatsoever from Ridge!! And Thomas couldn’t be more pleased with himself for his latest disgusting trick. He thinks he won the war with his latest disgusting act of trickery. But he is wrong!!! Ridge will beg for Brooke’s forgiveness. I only hope she tells him it’s over for good and is happy with Bill!!! Ridge doesn’t deserve the time of day from Brooke!!!
DeleteLynn, it is irrelevant wether or not anyone regretted what they did.. They still did it.. And Brooks “regrets “ it every time but still continues to do it, so that’s even worse in my opinion.. If you regret something, then surely, you wouldn’t do it again.. again, that doesnt cut it!! And to blame it on stress and alcohol doesn’t cut it either Lynn.. Brooke encouraged Deacon to stay, a man her husband despises, she could have sent him away.. but no, she actually encouraged him to stay and drink with her.. When the kids happened, Brooke herself said, she was sober enough to knoe what was happening, “but she let it happen” anyway.. Those were her words.. then she lied for months and hushed douglas up, got Hope and Liam to lie for her, made Douglas come home from a night with his dad and family, in fear he would tell them, and so she could hush him up!! Come on Lynn.. And they were kisses, still a betrayal and cheating.. Honestly, can you just be honest with yourself?? If your husband kept kissing other women, and lying about it to you, then u catch him out, and he has no choice but to own up to it, begs you to forgive him for the umteenth time, promises u it won’t happen again, then it does, and again lies to u till he is caught out, gives you the same BS and promises.. I really cannot see anyone putting up with that.. you obviously trust your husband, but I am asking you, that if he did these things in reality, what would you do, and how would you feel?? Stress and alcohol doesn’t cut it.. kissing is still cheating.. and if your husband kept betraying you with your sister??
DeleteKiss not kids
DeleteIt isn’t irrelevant at all. I would much prefer to deal with someone who regrets their bad behavior than someone who is fine with their bad behavior. The latter refers to a psychopath.
DeleteI agree that if someone keeps doing the same thing over and over again, then the regret / apology doesn’t seem sincere. But the thing is, I genuinely believe Brooke has changed. She has dialed it back significantly from what you guys say she did decades ago. She hasn’t tried taking anyone’s husband away. Those actions that you describe of Brooke (that I never saw because I wasn’t watching back then) were done with intent and I can only assume malice decades ago.
Her one-off kisses with Bill and Deacon were not done with intent or malice. Everyone is more inclined to bad behavior when they are drunk. Esp a known alcoholic. Let’s take Ridge’s drunken behavior - he married Shauna for God’s sake!!! That’s some serious bad judgement there!
And Brooke did not invite Deacon up to her bed. He carried her upstairs passed out and put her to bed. Nothing happened.
The Bill thing was not good in the way it affected Katie. But as far as what respect Ridge deserves - he’s a total dog and deserves none!!! Brooke was not falling for Bill. And that alone makes it hugely different in my eyes! Ridge has literally been playing 2 women who he damn well knows are both completely in love with him!!! He has been kissing both frequently. And spending time with both for hours on end. And leading both on 100%!!!! That doesn’t even compare to Brooke’s one-off kiss with Bill!! You know it doesn’t.
Lynn, I agree, I don’t like Ridge, never really have, and what he is doing now is so wrong to to both women.. He should have told Brooke his reasons before he got on the plane.. but having said that, You heard what Ridge said when Brooke asked, is it bill and deacon and he said it’s all of that.. The difference is Lynn, is that Brookes constant oopsies, constant lying, constant asking for forgiveness, constant “regrets”, constant promise it won’t happen again, is what causes Ridge to react.. It is a cycle, and constant one.. She stuffs up, lies, and NOT until she is CAUGHT out, admits it, then promises everything under the sun to get him to forgive her and believe her promises.. Ridges actions are wrong as well, but it’s him reacting to her behaviour..
DeleteTo get him back after he went to Eric’s , she promised to listen to him, and be considerate of his feelings and to SUPPORT him.. then manipulates, threatens his son with cps, to get Douglas back to Hope, instead of keeping her nose out of others business.. Even Hope believe it her, and Hope has just told her to but out and mind her business, her own daughter.. And she wonders how this happened.. Ridge asked her to support him where Douglas and Thomas were concerned.. Did she do that?? NO, instead she started a war!! Even hope wasn’t happy when Brooke said she can use the cps thing to her advantage to get Douglas back.. She interferes when she shouldn’t, manipulates and breaks promises, etc etc etc.. So why is she sooo surprised this happened??
And it’s always one off, but the problem is that it’s NOT one off!!
DeleteWhen Ridge married Shauna, he was reacting to Brookes latest betrayal, secondly it was not his intention to marry shauna, he was manipulated by her and Quinn, and he was so drunk he didn’t remember it..
DeleteBrooke on the other hand, was still coherent when she encouraged a man ridge despises to stay and keep her company on New Years because she can’t be alone for two seconds and she was upset Ridge was stuck on a tarmac, trying to get home to her, and so she kissed Deacon!!
Well she may have made an idle threat about calling CPS. But she didn’t go through with it. And instead Thomas manipulated the situation to further his quest of getting his parents back together. For goodness sake…Steffy and Thomas are grown ass adults who should let their almost senior citizen parents make their own dang decisions. The whole “get mommy and daddy back together” was ridiculous from the get go. I think Brooke probably overstepped by going to see Thomas alone. But I absolutely believe she has a right to an opinion. She is his adoptive grandmother and Douglas has been living with Hope and Liam for years. It bothers me that you think Brooke should comply with Ridge’s requests / demands. But you don’t think it should also be reciprocated when Brooke makes requests / demands of Ridge. That just further feeds the misogynistic tone of this soap opera. We are bordering on Handmaid’s Tale as it is with the ridiculous writing of this show!!! Women need to rise up in this show and demand respect!! Well except for Steffy - she always shows her perceived self-importance is larger than life!! 🤣🤣🤣
DeleteHere we go again…sure Ridge can’t stand Deacon. So???
DeleteBrooke can’t stand Taylor and Ridge is with Taylor constantly. And the touchy / feely family stuff going on all the time. Not to mention the multiple kissing episodes. Seems a bit hypocritical- don’t you think??
Lynn, in all honesty, and I have actually said this before, you may not remember, but I don’t think it’s fair what Ridge said, about Deacon not being allowed to come and see Hope, when he is still seeing seeing Taylor.. But you need to remember, the physical side of Ridge kissing Taylor didn’t happen until AFTER the deacon saga.. Even when Taylor was trying to tell Ridge about what they saw on the cameras, deacon showing and not leaving til the next day.. Ridge still got annoyed and defended Brooke, until he spoke to Brooke after what Taylor told him, and she had no choice to confess after lying for months.. He never touched Taylor until AFTER he found Brooke out.. Their marraige started to break down then, big time.. So I wasn’t being contradictory..
DeleteYes Steffy and Thomas are adults, but it should not matter what they say.. Ridge has his own mind, so they can say and hope for all they like.. but at the end of the day, he will do what he wants to do.. it’s easy to say oh but if they didn’t push so hard then!! The marriage imploded when she did what she always does, and everything I said above love..
DeleteAnd she should not have made ANY threats against Thomas, she should not have manipulated people to make Thomas out a bad father either, by leaving out the pocket knife and cutting an apple.. She should have done what Ridge asked her to do and support him for a change, like she promised she would do at Eric’s just to get him to come home.. Spin it any which way, blame it on all the forresters , but at the end of it all , she brought this all on herself.. Yes what Thomas did was wrong, but that was just the icing on the cake!! Even her own daughter assumed it was her, why, because that is how Brooke behaves.. it is totally a Brooke move.. She has done way worse than that..
DeleteHave you ever asked yourself, why, despite favouring Brooke, the writers have everyone saying in the dialogue, describing her as how we see her.. why, because she is exactly like that.. They may favour her, but they write her how she is.. All Donna could say to Thomas when he said all the things he did, was the difference is Brooke owns her behaviour, that’s it, that was all she could say about her own sister to defend her against everything Thomas said..
And she doesn’t “own” her behaviour UNTIL she gets CAUGHT!! It’s too late to own it then!! What else is she going to say or do.. she can’t deny it?? And even then, she owns, then blames someone or something else for it?? Seriously 🤦♀️🤦♀️
Wait, hold on, did you just say something about the writers being at fault, which is totally contradicting what you have been saying, that when we bring up the writers it’s our way of excusing for our defence, now you are saying the same thing?? I’m confused love??🤣🤣🤣
DeleteI still think Ridge will come crawling back to Brooke once he finds out the truth. And if he does, then the marriage imploding for reasons other than Thomas’s fake phone call to CPS will be moot. I think Ridge is disgusted with the idea that Brooke is lying to his face, or so he believes. In his heart he knows he has treated both Brooke and Taylor horribly. But he has been allowed to get away with it by two women who should clearly have more self-respect than to let jerk-off Ridge take advantage of them like that.
DeleteI hope Bill buys the white stallion and rides in soon to rescue Brooke from slime-ball Ridge!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
And Brooke has every reason not to trust Thomas. He has proved to be a psycho over and over again. And Brooke didn’t even know Thomas was in on the champagne bottle switch.
DeleteYou all said Thomas deserves to have Douglas back because he has changed. He hasn’t changed one bit. Brooke knows Thomas better than Ridge knows Thomas!
And I seem to recall Brooke was planning on telling Ridge about the drunken Deacon kiss, but Ridge kept interrupting her and wouldn’t let her talk. He kept repeating…it’s not your fault, it’s not your fault. And then more time went by and she became committed to the lie….primarily because of the extended timing. Her gut told her to tell him. And I know she tried at least once, maybe more.
DeleteAnd I do not recall Hope assuming Brooke made the call. She may have asked if Brooke brought CPS….mom did you make the call? But I’m sure Hope believed her mom when she told her she did not. But I honestly don’t even remember that scene happening.
Delete*She may have asked if Brooke brought up CPS…
DeleteLynn, she had been lying to Ridge for MONTHS before she “planned” on telling him.. and she planned on telling him because was so supportive of her she felt bad.. That doesn’t cut it either.. Thomas had issues with Sheila from the get home about it, and he had only known for 3 days, and was about to tell Ridge and Steffy overheard him telling Sheila he was going to tell his dad.. then steffy went straight to Sheila and got shot.. after that, that was the last thing on Thomas’s mind with his brother in law killed and his sister fighting for her life.. He did not intend to keep that secret.. He knew for 3 days only, and on the third day, he told Sheila he is going to tell his dad what she did.. but then he got the call about Finn and steffy before he could.. he didn’t lie for months.. He was not comfortable with it no matter how hard Sheila tried to keep him quiet, and you know that Lynn, so at that point, he was about to prove he did change but didn’t get the chance.. I Brooke was at him non stop about Douglas, hammered him.. It was NOT her business.. simple.. And Hope didn’t say it outright Lynn, but was soooo obvious she thought it was her mother.. a two year old could tell that.. And she basically told bBrooke to butt out and back off..
DeleteAnd no, Brooks had no reason to think Thomas hadn’t changed.. Like her own daughter told her, he has done nothing but good, up till the point he called cps.. he got Liam out of prison for gods sake, he could have left him there to rot and took his opportunity with Hope.. But no, and Liam would have been in prison for 30 plus years, if it wasn’t for Thomas.. Brooke had NO issues with Thomas, until he wanted to step up and be a better father.. But Brooke had to do what she ALWAYS does, and stick her nose in, and keep it there where it didn’t belong.. manipulating to make Thomas look like he is a danger to his son, that is not far off of what Thomas did to her.. When Brooke wants something she does what ever it takes.. And she doesn’t advise, she TELLS EVERYONE around her how it’s going to be.. She undermines Hope and scares the crap out of her to get her to comply.. like with the knife.. She scared the hell out of Hope, thinking Douglas was in danger, and made the knife out to be a samauri sword, not a pocket knife that fits in your pocket and conveniently left out he was cutting a bloody apple.. Lynn we will have to agree to disagree on this one, because no matter which way it’s spun, Brooke took it way too far.. And she wonders why she is at where she is..
DeleteAnd ridge interrupting her when she tried to tell him, what a load of crock, that should not have stopped her.. Any normal person would say please be quiet because I have something important you need to hear, let me tell u!! That’s it..
Deletecommitting to lies is what Brooke does best!! Apart from barking orders that is!!
DeleteColly and Lynn, I enjoyed your little banter. You both brought up some really good points. The only thing I have to add is that if Brooke did not push her way into Thomas and Hopes' business regarding Douglas, and if she did not enter Thomas' home and start leveling threats against him, Thomas would not have done what he did. His actions were not psychotic like in the past, it was a reaction to what Brooke did. He wanted his parents back together however, he was not as involved or determined as his sister was until Brooke showed up at his home. That's when he decided to do what he did. Not that it's right but anyone (even in real life) who is constantly being attacked by someone will retaliate in some way or form eventually.
DeleteI’m off to work so don’t have time for any long response.
DeleteColly, I think your timelines are WAAAY off! I don’t think it was months and months before Brooke told Ridge about the Deacon kiss. And I don’t think it was 3 days that Thomas kept the secret about the champagne bottle switch. Thomas would have never told. His conversation was simply overheard by Steffy. He had become more and more comfortable with the ruse just like every other underhanded thing he does. And there have been multiple kisses that Ridge has participated in that he STILL HASN’T told Brooke about. I do not think your arguments hold water.
Colly, honestly I don’t even know why we go back and forth on this stuff. Neither one of us is gonna change the other’s mind.
DeleteI think we could start our own soap opera - “The Argumentative And The Stubborn”. Lol !!!
Elle, thank you for trying to be neutral. That was nice.
Colly, I just read your comment about me commenting on the writers’ misogynistic tone. That is not the same as blaming the writers for a specific incident or behavior from one of the characters you favor and don’t want to be seen in a bad light. Like Thomas’s latest greatest phone app voice recording debacle.
DeletePretty sure everyone on this blog agrees that the writing makes the women in general look pathetic on the show. But if the writers choose to make Brooke kiss Finn, as an example, I am not gonna blame the specific kiss on bad writing.
Like I said - we ALL agree the men look like super heroes on this soap and they make women look pathetic and needy. It needs to stop!
Yes love , I completely agree with you.. I think there needs to be some strong women on the writing team, because garauntee did there is none now, because they would not put up with the misogynistic tone the show has!!
DeleteAnd yes, or we call call it the Bold and the Banter!! 🤣🤣🤣 has I nice ring to it??
DeleteLynn , like we said before, that’s what makes the board so interesting, it would be boring if we all agreed!! It’s just all in good fun!! 🤣🤣
DeleteColly, yes!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
DeleteBrooke walking into Quinn’s home and calling her every name in the book, ordering her to leave town etc for NO reason and physically striking Shauna is out of control! It was completely unprovoked… Brooke was furious with Ridge over Thomas and wanted Eric with Donna because Brooke doesn’t think Quinn is good enough!
DeleteBrooke spent months pushing Donna to break up a marriage because Quinn was from Las Vegas … apparently Brooke forgets she wasn’t born in the Forrester mansion 😂.
I was so into today's episode, until they showed Deacon and Sheila. And her sitting on his lap like they are teenagers. Yuck! I hope the missing steaks and liquor get Deacon fired. Brooke should release some of her anger and frustration by slapping Steffy one good time. I wonder if that Othello might kidnap Brooke or something.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure but I think maybe Othello and Steffy will put something in place (maybe romantic) for Ridge and Taylor in such a way that Brooke will witness it. I've been hearing about a spoiler regarding Brooke seeing Ridge and Taylor together and Steffy having something to do with it.
DeleteWhy is it so hard to understand why the show must keep the only 2 original actors and few original characters of the show, prominent.
ReplyDeleteOf course Thomas did it. His reaction to the CPS was obvious. He was only addressing Brookes treatment of his dad. Please. He should have been so furious with Brooke that he'd have raced to her house to confront her.
The visit was not about Brooke and Ridge. It was about Thomas and Douglas. Thomas only reacted to Ridge being betrayed. Not a normal reaction.
The way Ridge handled this, neither woman should want him. He is lying to both of them.
Thomas' focus, for some time now, has been on reuniting his parents. His lack of anger with the call and his focus on how his fathers relationship with Brooke could be affected by the call was not strange EVEN IF Brooke had actually made the call. This is because his glee for his parents to reunite was greater than whatever anger he might have felt. I can't say that his lack of anger was a sign that he was the one who set up the call.
DeleteNot to mention he and Ridge couldn’t say anything about the call without getting their former employee fired from his job!!! They heard a confidential call, he could never have gone to confront Brooke. He and Ridge never told Taylor and Steffy about Brooke’s threats or the CPS visit!
DeleteThat just shows even further how slimy, selfish and shitty Thomas is. He set up his friend to get fired if it gets out. Thomas cares about no one but himself, just like his cackling hen sister!! If I have to hear one more time from Steffy about “her family” I’m gonna 🤮🤮🤮!!!!
DeleteSeriously why have Thomas work so hard over those months just to see him go back to his old ways...come on bill you could've written this differently..now Thomas will loose everything including Douglas.. Taylor ridge will run back to Brooke the minute he finds out what Thomas did. I swear I'm so tired if watching this... All Taylor is to ridge is a rebound chick I wish she would've known that after all those years with the back and forth between she and ridge
ReplyDeleteJust to set it up so Hope gets Douglas, Eric throws Thomas out in the cold and the Logans won again 🤮
DeleteSame old Taylor story line she can enjoy being the Rebound till , Thomas once again come out and left like thefish out of water , while Brooke is made the victim , spare me the BS repeated story line already!!
ReplyDeleteI’m cracking up reading the comments. Last week there were soooooo many Thomas fans saying he absolutely didn’t do it!! Now that we all know he did do it, those very same fans have found every excuse in the book….consisting of : Well he was pushed to the brink. So he was justified. Or…Oh it doesn’t matter because Ridge was on his way out of the marriage anyway. Or my personal favorite…..It’s all the writers’ fault for making Thomas the bad guy again, while the Logans are the victims. Lol
ReplyDeleteThe Forrester fans just can’t admit that the character Thomas is once again guilty of a really despicable act and he is guilty - just like the show led us to believe! Thomas is a bad egg!!! And Karma is gonna hit him and his cackling hen sister in the face - hard!!!
Not me I knew it was Thomas all along cause I read spoilers and stories
DeleteLynn it's all Brooke's fault 😂😂 Thomas and Steffy and Ridge can do whatever royal crap, people here will always make it about Brooke. Or if they can't directly, there's always the good old "What about that time when Brooke...". "Thomas pushed a person off the road? What about when Brooke slept with Deacon" 😂😂😂
DeleteAnd how is this any different from the Brooke supporters making excuses for her behavior?
DeleteI don't think anyone is making excuses. I personally would always admit what I see her doing, the fact that I say Sheila drugged Brooke with alcohol is not anything anyone didn't see. I'm not saying that Brooke is justified in kissing anyone.
DeletePlus like I've said before, I see a world of difference between the heaviness of a kiss versus actually setting out to hurt someone like what Thomas is doing. Comparing the two is a bit naive.
Milla, you are one of the few objective people on this blog. I've said this before so my comment wasn't about you specifically. Generally however, many excuses are made for Brooke, in like fashion, as the OP has stated have been made for Thomas.
DeleteBrooke always makes “mistakes” that must be forgiven… really when it’s the millionth time over decades, how is it a mistake??? Call it what it is… a pattern, a serial cheater who has all her life made a sport of destroying other women’s marriages and lives. A narcissistic bully, that’s Brooke!
DeleteThe Brooke fans weren’t dug in saying she didn’t do something that she in fact did. You ladies were singing Thomas’s praises. How he deserves Douglas because he had completely changed. And how he was innocent !!! But none of that turned out to be true.
DeleteSo now the Brooke fans get to hear for days and days that it’s the writers’ fault !!!!!
Name one time a Logan fan has blamed “the writers”!!! It’s such a cop out!!
And yes, Milla….the “look over there, there’s something shiny” is a very common ploy by the Forrester fans. I keep saying that Brooke is not the same person she was years ago. But the Forrester fans would sooner cut off their toes than admit that. I like to live in the present. And in the present, the Forresters suck big time!!!
DeleteOh and I don’t think Brooke and Liam will ever hook up!! I don’t know who came up with that mad theory. Nor have I ever given any credence to the idea that Hope will fall for Thomas. It’s just not ever gonna happen!!!
Lynn, Brooke hasn't actually changed that much from who she was in the past. Yes, she has not slept with a married man or railroaded someone's marriage but the fact that she kissed Bill which lead to him and Katie splitting up was indeed due to her and Bill's actions. Encouraging her sister to go after Eric just because she wanted Quinn out of his life shows she hasn't changed because she still did not respect the fact that Eric was still married. Encouraging Hope to reclaim Liam knowing that he and Steffy were engaged and she was pregnant also shows that Brooke has not changed much from the past because she still does not see a committed relationship as anything sacred. She led Hope to purposely break up that family just like she did to Ridge, Taylor and their family in the past. And not to mention, her selfish behaviour where everything is always about her! Just like it was in the past - me, me, me, me.
DeleteI think Brooke has simmered somewhat from what she used to be however, she has not changed that much. She never learns and therefore cannot change. She still self-destructs then wants everyone's forgiveness claiming that she will do better. But she never does.
Elle, after Quinn sabotaged Brooke’s marriage by trying to get Shauna and Ridge together, and Quinn’s planning of the drunken wedding night in Vegas, I don’t think Brooke was feeling too sorry for Quinn with regard to the Donna affair.
DeleteAs I’ve said many times, I didn’t see the years you ladies refer to. But I think Brooke has given Ridge far more commitment than he deserves.
I like the person Brooke is today. I think she should have dumped Ridge long ago, but other than that I think she’s pretty awesome!
Like I told Colly, no one is changing anyone’s opinions on these blogs.
Yes I know Lynn.
ReplyDeleteIt merely goes to show that the Maroney fans will always believe just what they want to. It also shows what revolting people they are.
I`m actually finding myself feeling somewhat sorry for Taylor, even she doesn`t really deserve pity. She knows perfectly well that history has shown she is only going to get hurt again.
I`m hoping like hell that Bill hears of this really quickly so he can ride in on his white horse and that Brooke and he will end up together again...permanently this time!!
The guy hiding in the bushes overheard Ridge tell Brooke that he will always love her. He wasn`t hiding there hearing that for no reason, poor stupid Taylor. Run girl and don`t stop because this is going to all blow up soon and another round of devastation in store for you!
I`m just really, really hoping that by this time Bill has made Brooke see sense and she refuses to go back to waffler. I want to see Brooke happy with someone who loves her without judgement, because Ridge is in no position to judge anyone, because he has been a prime arse in his time to Brooke, the wife he has cheated on in the past.
It`s just awful that Taylors self absorbed, self centred, childish, revolting children have both both set her up for more pain!!
So true about the judgment Maur. Ridge and his whole family are judgmental hypocrites (oddly only Taylor is kinda keeping a higher ground, doesn't lash out against Brooke so viciously... yet) and Bill is in this regard so refreshing. And funny. Romantic... Just better.
DeleteMilla, we've already established that this version of Taylor portrayed by Krista is not the real Taylor. The real Taylor would have been up in Brooke's face already and not just watching from the sidelines. 😂😂😂😂
DeleteWhen I say revolting people they are, i mean the Maroneys.
ReplyDelete@Maur. Glad you clarified that and didn't mean some of us are revolting.
ReplyDeleteLol. That's what I thought too, D. Glad Maur cleared that up! Phew! 😂😂
DeleteIsn't Othello under Bill's employ? So why would he be reporting what happened between Ridge and Brooke to Steffi? I think he was asked by Bill to keep an eye on Brooke.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure that Othello ever worked for Bill. He came onto the show as a DJ and was a part of the Steffy/Liam storyline back in the day when they would frequent Aspen. He and Steffy were friends.
DeleteBill is keeping an eye on the situation because he doesn't want to commit to Katie, if Brooke will be available. However, I think Bill will eventually end up with Finn's Momma. I hope so. This soap recycled story on lines adnaseum. 😆
DeleteSame old story line for 20 years now? I Could've written this🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
ReplyDeleteCan’t believe that these grandmas and grandpa are still obsessed with each other. Ridge does not love either of them and they should really know this by now, and just move on. This is not love it is an addiction between all three of them. They have been too many marriages between them that never works. There is no trust, and all three are so insecurity with their pairings. Both women always want what they can’t have. They will never have trust and security with Ridge.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more!
DeleteCouldn’t agree more
DeleteIs there some holiday today in the U S? The show isn't on today here in Canada, well at the time slot It's usually shown. 🙄
ReplyDeleteNM. It's a news special about the Capital riot. Hopefully it will be on later.
ReplyDeleteIt should be on cbs dot com later this evening.
Delete@Fanny. Over here we can't stream from CBS.com . It comes up with a country code error. I'd have to d/l a VPN app. to watch it. I'll have to wait for Bob to upload it.
ReplyDeleteD , u didn’t miss much love!!
ReplyDeleteI don't consider myself Team Logan/Brooke OR Team Forrester/Taylor. Currently the only characters on the show I like are Hope, Eric, Finn, Carter, and Zende. Oh and Wyatt. And neither Brooke nor Taylor should want Ridge. Ugh! Ladies, have some dignity. He will continue to go back and forth because they let him. Yawn.
ReplyDelete@ Colly?? Was there a new episode today? Here it was a repeat of an old show. Then again you're a day ahead of me. Tell me...what happened. 🤔 😉
ReplyDeleteD, on this thread, of Wednesday the 12th October, your date, not mine, there was a new episode, but on the Thursday 13th which is the next date in your time, there was no episode.. on this days, the 12th, it was a continuation of Brooke and Ridge talking, and Ridge broke it off with her and walked away.. Taylor left the room to go for a walk, to prepare herself if Brooke convinced him to stay with her.. Then he went looking for Taylor, while Brooke sat at in a chair outside the house, feeling sorry for herself.. While Ridge was looking for Taylor, Steffy went outside to confront Brooke and make it clear to her, that Ridge, chose her mother, and came to her, in other words it was his choice, and hit her with some home truths about goodness and dignity win out in the end, then warned her not to interfere in her mothers relationship like she has always done in the past.. Then Ridge found Taylor, told her he wants a life full of love and happiness and honesty, and that he wants a life with her, and asked if that’s ok, to which she said yes, then it showed Brooke walking away on the Bridge and leaning over the rail crying.. that was it!! ❤️❤️ It’s Friday here which is your Thursday, so tomorrow will be my Saturday, which should show the missed episode, which you should still get on your Friday.. does that make sense? The missed episode is your Thursday.. so you should get a new episode on your Friday.. ❤️❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteLol 😂 🤣 . Yes it makes sense. But on today's blog ( the 13th) Unknown made a comment that in Australia there was an episode today? Doesn't take much to confuse this old girl. Lol
ReplyDeleteThat’s on one of our free television channels here in Australia.. if I watch it now, I won’t have anything to watch tomorrow and it’s roughly your bed time over there.. if I do watch it, I will email u what happened.. did you miss one or two episodes, because you said that this day, on this thread you got a repeat?? So have you missed this days with a repeat and no show at all on the next days, Thursday as well?
DeleteAlso D, even though I am a day ahead of you, if I watch it on this blog like I normally do, my week of b&b starts on Tuesday here through to Saturday.. if I watch on out free television channel I would know what happens before u do, and if I posted, I would be commenting on a day earlier, then yous all would know before u even watched, that’s why I wait till tuesdays, so I am commenting on the same days episodes and don’t spoil it for yous!!
DeleteWho was the man lurking in the background watching/listening to Ridge and Brooke???
ReplyDeleteThat was Othello. He has been a staple on the show whenever they do the on-location shoots in Aspen. He used to be a DJ. Not sure what he does now. Some have stated that he is Bill's driver.
Delete@Elle - ahhhhhhh, thank you very much!!!
ReplyDelete
