There’s WAY TOO MUCH bed hopping going on at The Bold and The Beautiful. There always has been, but lately it’s downright disgraceful that the writers can’t come up with a plot line that doesn’t involve someone declaring their love one minute, then changing their minds five minutes later and declaring their undying love for someone else. Can you say wishy washy?
Brooke is the worst. Let’s just go back to last year when she was in love with Ridge. Taylor came home and Ridge couldn’t make up his mind who he wanted to be with. (For such successful business people, it’s amazing they can’t make a decision and stick to it for longer than it takes my bread to toast.) So she gravitated to Nick, and found comfort in his arms, after taking him from her own daughter. Then Ridge thought maybe he wanted to be with her, so she dumped Nick and went back to Ridge. Now Nick has had a baby with Taylor and suddenly Brooke decides maybe she wants Nick again. Nick no sooner gets finished assuring his emotionally unstable wife Taylor that he loves her forever, when he’s sniffing Brooke’s butthole again. Can you see why this is so aggravating? The writers aren’t taking the time to develop any storylines. They’re just jumping from one couple to another.
I think the biggest problem with B&B is that there are not enough families on the show. Having mainly the Forrester’s and the Logan’s causes the program to be almost incestuous at times.
And apparently there are no minority people living in Los Angeles. Everyone is extremely wealthy and white. TPTB seem almost afraid to add other characters to the show. If they need anyone, they tend to “borrow” a character from The Young and The Restless.
As with most soaps, they have one doctor, one lawyer, one Indian chief. (Except for the Indian chief because he would fall into the minority category, and we’ve already noted there are no minorities living in L.A.)
Although the writers seemed to have backed off of Stephanie’s character as of late, nothing is more gross than listening to her wax poetic about her son Ridge, who must have been her lover in a former lifetime. Or, from the looks of it, earlier in this lifetime.
Eric having sex with much younger Donna? ICK. Rick having sex with much older Taylor? UGH. A young Phoebe going after an older Rick? Gross since he’s going after her MOTHER. Again, can’t TPTB find actors/actresses within the same age range?
I think the writer’s need to stop trying to distract the viewers from real story lines by changing couples every week. I think they need to bring on more characters that are NOT related to the Logan’s or the Forrester’s and I think they need to bring on some minority characters
