I gagged, I vomited, I gavomited. Ridge and Caroline are gross.

Today's ep was the best I've seen in quite some time. DD and Rena Sofer just carried the whole damn thing. For all the people who complain about Liam being a whiner, they're correct. $Bill had to shut down Liam's "Daddy luvs Wyatt more than me" crap. It was a little sad in a way... it made Liam look really immature. I can't blame Wyatt for not shutting his mother down. Hope was getting so thoroughly exposed that he was probably just enjoying the show. Oh wait, that was me. Seriously though, he just wanted to hear her response to what his mother was saying. I keep saying this, but I wish the writers would give Wyatt some backbone. I was praying he would say, "Neither one of you are worth the trouble" and just bounce. Instead, he's never going to really punish his mother's behavior and he hangs on for these little (microscopic) morsels of "love" from Hope when it's crystal clear she prefers his brother. Hope is really the worst. She had every right to be completely irate with Quinn, yet she was still annoying as heck.

I laughed today when Liam had the nerve to say, "First, you steal my girl, then...". When Liam put the full court press on Hope during the pregnancy scare, was that not "stealing" Wyatt's girl? Wyatt may be annoying, but Liam is a complete hypocrite. They must be brothers because they're two sides of the same annoying coin. Wyatt's "Get over it" spiel is no different that Liam's way over the top magnanimous conversations with Wyatt following Hope's previous brother switcheroo. Then again, I hate Liam the way most people here seem to hate Wyatt, so I'm never going to agree with anything coming out of his mouth. I do wish the writers would give Wyatt a spine and actual characterization. At the moment, he's no different than Ivy... just a foil in the never-ending saga of Liam and Hope.

The idea of Ridge and Caroline together in damn near any capacity is grotesque.

I actually like Wyatt, but the only thing I dislike about the character is his pathetic attachment to Hope. If he still wanted her after the way she completely disrespected him during/after the pregnancy scare, nothing is going to push him away now. I'm waiting for Hope to erect a lifesize poster of Waffles in their bedroom and for Wyatt to just go along with it. I wish Hope, Liam, and Wyatt would all come to the realization they deserve (and can do) better.

Which is why I cannot get into the character at all. Might as well name her Plot Device instead of Ivy. It's certainly not the actress' fault, but she would have to be Hellen Mirren to rise above this junk in my eyes.

I'm pretty much hate watching at this point. When the ep was over and the promo said, "Only 2 more episodes left", I responded, "There's two more weeks of this shit?!?!" For some reason, I thought this was the season finale. Carter is completely infuriating. Let's keep Max and kill her off.

I've been saying this since the "I'm going to date both of you" fiasco after the pregnancy scare. If Wyatt had the slightest sense of self-worth, he wouldn't even speak to Hope anymore. She's a clown and if your brother wants to be with a Clown, good luck with that. I laughed when Wyatt said Ivy probably wouldn't have drowned. In a show teeming with stupidity, $Bill is the only person giving me strength. Bill is the only character who consistently called out the 3 most annoying people on the show... Ridge, Katie, and Hope. Everyone else is walking on egg shells around those 3 buffoons.

I wish Justin had gotten a severe concussion or fallen into a coma after one of Ridge's sucker punches. Then maybe someone would be saying Ridge ruined his life. More likely, the nimrods on the show would say, "Justin who?" Bingo.

I find this odd considering how he boomeranged between daughters of the famous families on this show. But I notice that other male soap characters are also seen as "good guys" despite doing the same thing like Ridge and Nick Newman. Characters (like Wyatt) that would stay faithful to 1 woman, but run afoul of the law are seen a despicable and contemptible.

Speaking of characters being propped, so is Liam. Having multiple characters singing his praises and clamoring for Lope who don't really know him from a hole in the wall is a bit much for me. I also don't care if Liam and Ivy get together. Just spare us the Liam is the best guy ever or Hope/Ivy get catty b.s. Also spare me the Lope is a great love story crap when they eventually get back together. (There's a 0% chance they spare us.)

Like Madonna said, over the borderline. I can't imagine what she'd say about Wyatt if he "accidentally" had sex with Brooke and thought it was Hope. I'm a huge fan of KM, but she can't honestly believe that crap. It was just a short time ago that Hope acted like being impregnated by Wyatt was 1 step above contracting Ebola. If Wyatt had any self respect, he would want nothing to do with Hope. If Hope had any self respect, she'd want nothing to do with Liam.

I would agree if we didn't just see Liam parachute in during the pregnancy scare and have absolutely no problem with Hope's idea of dating both brothers when she was in a monogamous relationship with Wyatt. (That certainly wasn't his idea, but he didn't object out of "respect" for Wyatt and Hope.) In all honesty, B&B would have 93% less storylines in it's history if everyone adhered to this.

I completely disagree. If he trusts her and respects her as an adult who can make intelligent decisions, then he shouldn't worry about any scheme Wyatt is trying to pull. He should believe that she'll see through those schemes too. As far as telling her to give the diamond back, why should Liam have any say in that? Can you imagine him demanding how Bill conducts his affairs? Why can't he afford "the love of his life" the same respect he does with his father? Everyone is entitled to voice their displeasure, but to demand that Hope give it back? That just comes across as controlling. Is Wyatt's acceptance of their relationship phony? Absolutely, but so is Liam's magnanimousness after Hope chose him. I cannot stomach all the "poor Liam" stuff from the Forrester women. Where was Aly when Liam decided to bang Hope's stepsister?

Why doesn't Liam just, I don't know, trust Hope? If their connection and love is as strong as he believes it is, then he has nothing to worry about. I can't believe the Waffler has the nerve to make all sorts of demands. Liam is coming across as a hypocrite, controlling, and a whiner. I root for anything that leads to Liam and Hope breaking up. They're at their most obnoxious levels when they're coupled. (In full disclosure, I haven't liked Liam since he got with Steffy 30 seconds after Hope took off the engagement ring.)
