    ^^^This. Thorne has been done so incredibly dirty and for what? But that aside, I don't really mind Bill having a 4th kid so much that the 4th kid is Luna. I have no idea why Bradley is so afraid/unwilling to make Bill Kelly's father. He (or whoever was writing at the time) had no problem destroying Bridge by making Bridget Eric's kid, and Steamless is far more deserving of that particular torpedo than 90s era Bridge ever was. Also how could Bill have all that unprotected sex in the span of 2-3 decades(at the height of the aids epidemic at that!) and not catch an STD? Like geez this show....

    I think what some people miss is that Thomas' crazy far predates Emma/Hope/Beth. Redeeming him was always an iffy, ambitious endeavor. But they still did it before MA was in the role. Bradley seems to enjoy yanking the chain of Thomas fans without letting those of us that dislike him have have any peace either. If Persion Fode was still Thomas, I might have less of an issue with the propping(though it'd still be annoying but that's Bradley for you). Mostly because that's what PF was used for already, and it actually worked! For far more people than MA seems to work for.

    Unpopular opinion perhaps...MA is good but he hardly lives up to the hype for me. He plays creepy, douchebag far too well to be a permanently convincing heartthrob. 

    I honestly think(wishful thinking) Finn's dialouge was meant for Wyatt because that whole "you'll never be with Hope as long as I live" line was too weird, & too forced he doesn't even know Hope like that does he? Or at least not well enough to get THAT invested out of the blue. But with that said, there is absolutely no issue with him considering Thomas a danger in general. It's the same way Steffy rightfully regarded Sheila.

    But I have no doubt Miss infantilization/double standard will staunchly defend her position and her pycho brother. Even as she remains pensive over his relationship with Hope, because how he'll choose to act out when Hope decides she's done thinking with her crotch.

    Good job writers.....good job....

    That was Senior Bell who made Bridget Eric's, I was. HUGE Bridge fan and I still remember how pissed I was that Bridget was Eric's child.  Out of nowhere Eric slept with Brooke who was too sleepy or altered at the time (can't recall). I was steaming mad LOL..

    I think Thomas needs to be a dark gray..not a goody two shoes and not a straight up villain. He does do underhanded very well.

    Bell said RJ is the next Ridge and the  “what’s coming in 2024” says

    Spoiler

    They’re shifting the story to the next generation and Luna has found love with RJ and they will be a sweet love story but Zende yada yada 

    I put the above in spoilers, not sure if it counts as such but wanted to be safe. 

    Hence my assumption about Runa, even though she has better chemistry with Zende. 

    I know chemistry is subjective, but you can’t just stick people together. I remember reading something about Michael Park (Jack) on ATWT, he mentioned that when he first started, they kept putting him in scenes with different women on the show, but nothing caught. He said something along the lines that there was a joke they were going to make his character gay then he had a scene with Maura  West, (Carly) and a super couple was born. The controversial Luke and Laura.  Luke’s character was supposed to die after raping Laura. But they changed the story, given the chemistry between the actors and how popular they were.  Not saying what the show did was right, but the change resulted in the most popular supercouple of all time.  I guess my point is the show has to be willing to change things based on which characters work well together romantically. It’s a soap opera, we want romance, angst and well told stories. The current version of Bridge and Lope just don’t compare to their predecessors with romantic chemistry. 
     

    Just my opinion not fact 😏

    And there is the crux of it all..those romantic sparks are very present with Hope/Thomas (AN/MA) and Steffy/Liam (JMW/SC). The writers wrote Thomas into a corner with the shenanigans of 2019 and essentially took out a viable romantic option for Hope. Which is odd because I read they chemistry tested MA/AN, if that’s true then the pairing was bound to happen sometime. They also killed Steam in 2018/2019 (Steffy on her knees anyone, what a bothersome scene) and so who really wants that pairing back, a lot of Steam fans are burnt I think. I wasn’t a big Steam fan but I can’t get past that scene when Liam told her he hated her. The woman in me rebels at the thought of Steam again. Again the writers went too far. As someone said they need to fix Thomas and move him forward. 
     

    RJ/Luna and current Bridge have no spark at all, not even a twinkle just lifeless and Finn and Hope have sibling chemistry. Do they still do chem testing or just push two people together.  RJ/Luna is supposed to be the next best thing but they have NO super couple potential. I  don’t really see any hot chemistry with Finn and Steffy either, I just liked the pairing because he wasn’t Liam. Finn isn’t going to get killed, they already did that once but there may be an attempt on his life. 
     

    As for Thomas putting in the work - there’s a bonus scene from a few months ago where Thomas was talking about going to see his therapist or seeing his therapist and staying on track.  I really wish they had left that scene in. The most recent bonus scene has Hope/Ridge, Ridge straight up said Thomas kept Beth from you and Hope essentially said she’s gotten past that. Her words were very similar to what a Thomas told Steffy about not living in the past. That scene also showed Hope saying that her and Thomas haven’t really defined what they are when Ridge asked if they’re in a relationship. I find that odd because she uses the word relationship in other conversations and doesn’t correct Thomas when he uses it. I read these bonus scenes air overseas but not here in USA. 

    On a funny note - did anyone find it odd then when Hope came looking for Thomas she looked at the door up and down and then turned before Steffy called out. Don’t know if anyone noticed. I thought it was funny - like she thought Thomas was in the door.

    So while Thomas came across as delusional earlier this week, he seemed quite tame today. I also didn’t think he was threatening Finn or Steffy. 

    Finn on the other hand 👀 *cue crazy music*

    Is Xander coming back, he just came and bounced ??

    I am very confused about bringing up the Emma death, only because it seems like everyone knew Thomas was following her and it was investigated by the police. Hope’s reaction to the news was kind like “and your point is “.. she also seemed quite annoyed that Finn was bringing this up and ran to tell Thomas, but came across Steffy instead.  Steffy also didn’t seem too pleased that Finn texted Hope to tell her about Thomas I think Finn is gonna be sleeping on the couch tonight lol. 
     

    Also, what was with Finn telling Thomas as long as he’s alive that he will never be with Hope ?? WTF.. Dude.. this isn’t your fight! I wanted Thomas a deck him. According to Finn, Hope can’t  make their her own decision, it seems.  How misogynistic.  
     

    I’m also happy to say I’m glad things didn’t drag out Steffy, Hope and Thomas found out about accusations right away.  Thomas and Finn had it out and now I’m sure we’re going to see if Finn and Steffy get into it. It also looked like Hope was running to tell Thomas so she wasn’t gonna hide it either.

    If I didn’t know any better, I would say they’re trying to destroy Steffy/Finn and make way for Lame.

    Also to add Thomas was the last to find out about Beth. He wasn’t even on the show when she was kidnapped. Beth was about 9 months old when Thomas found out and 9 months old when she was returned to Hope. So at most he knew a few weeks, not saying he was right to threaten people to keep the secret but this isn’t all on him. 
     

    Liam can have an issue with Beth being under the same roof as Thomas but how can he justify Wyatt being with Flo who orchestrated the whole thing. Make it make sense ??

    Ruh roh….looks like Bill has a daughter!

     

    So Bill is just rolling around sexing up folks with no protection. She would be his third unknown kid..blech!

    On another note, I am going to preface this by saying that I am a huge fan of Thomas and Hope. I think they have a great chemistry and would love to see them work as a couple. Now all that being said I don’t like where this story is going. Thomas has been patient with Hope and now he just pops a proposal when she has repeatedly said she’s not ready for anything serious. He’s coming across delusional and he is pressuring her. I’ve also maintained that Thomas’s mental health is on him and not on Hope however, she needs a break it off with him.

    When she says things like, maybe someday, I will say yes, that just gives false hope. She’s clearly worried, so in my opinion, she needs to just tell Thomas they need to cool it. In between the looks of being worried, she’s also smiling with him, kissing him and cuddling with him and looking at him with heart eyes.  She clearly enjoys his company and the sex but she doesn’t want anything more so she needs to let that man go.

    She needs to figure out what she wants because I’m getting mixed signals. 
     

    Through all that, though, I will say they do have their cute moments, the actors really play well off one another. . 😞 pity it’s going all off the rails. 

    I have no interest in crazy Thomas so I’m not planning to stick around to watch it.

    Hope should give the ring back to Thomas. He just wasn’t hearing her to be honest and it was painful to see. 
     

    She didn’t really accept the necklace ring though and i suspect she isn’t going to wear it. 

    He’s coming across a bit delusional and I hope that they take a break. They’re clearly not on the same page. 
     

    Also I was getting annoyed that Hope still doesn’t have full closure on her marriage to waffles but then I remembered it took Steffy about what 2 yrs to get over Lame.

    Will Brooke and Steffy be allys now lol.

    I’m going on record to say that the proposal is a fantasy sequence.

    I rewatched the scene and something is off. Hope had glassy eyes and a smile which makes no damn sense! 

     If I’m wrong, y’all can say I told you so and I’ll gladly eat my crow 😏😏

    I’m eating my crow because that BS was real !!

    Thomas wtf! I was rooting for ya!

    **shakes fist in air**
    Still a fan though - yeah I’m shallow like that lol. MA is foine ☺️

    I am basically spoiler free now that my beloved Soap Opera Digest is no longer printed, so it was a complete surprise to see Xander. He's looking good! I am glad they are addressing the Thomas/Emma storyline--  I know it's been brought up for years on this forum.

    I've hesitated posting this because I do not want to seem insensitive. But throughout the Eric storyline, I found it a bit puzzling that many of the characters were in complete, total shock that Eric was dying. He is not a spring chicken, as the saying goes. (The actor is 79 IRL and the average lifespan of a caucasian male in the US is 77). It would have been more realistic if the storyline happened with Ridge, IMHO, who is 57 (at least TK is).

    All that being said-- I don't post much, but I get a lot of joy and amusement out of this forum. Thank you, and Happy Early New Year!

     

    I was basically on the same page re Eric. He’s about 80 so him dying shouldn’t be a big shock.

    Oh my God, Steffy, shut the hell up. Your brother is a grown ass man who can have his own define the relationship talks without you trying to force one onto him and Hope.  And, spoiler alert, if losing Hope or finding out Hope will never love him could send him careening off the rails again, then brother dear is not nearly as "all better" as you and mommy insist he is. 

    Thomas clearly agreed with you. He literally said “I’m a grown ass man”..

    How many times has that been posted on some board. 😂 

    I was like are they allowed to say “ass”  👀 

    Finn can take several seats.

    Well considering that he was fine when Hope walked away last time I don’t think he’s going off the rails this time. 

    Steffy does need to mind her beeswax, she goes from saying she’s happy Thomas had someone to lean on to putting Hope on the spot in the next second. 

    Also Hope/Finn may not be dead in the water 🤮. Hope was super complimentary of Finn today. I really hope they don’t go there. 
     

    Also TK/KKL have literally no chemistry. They’re anti-chemistry.

    The most interesting part of this episode was the zombie dancing.

    😂🤭...This comment took me out HAHAHAHA - although I did enjoy the slow side to side

    You know what I noticed today..

    Thomas/MA trimmed his beard FINALLY!! It looked so much nicer and neater. The scene where Steffy caught them in the office, I felt sorry for poor Hope/AN's skin because his beard seemed to be sticking out at random spots and angles..

    MA just got married so I guess he neatened up the beard..
