B&B: What's Up Today at Forrester Creations? - Daily Chat

[Joimiaroxeu]

I don't think the regular episode was shown at all. In my SW time zone they showed Liam and Steffy's wedding in Australia.

[CountryGirl]

As someone who has despised Taylor from the moment she moved in on the grieving widower of her not-even-cold-yet patient, I thought seeing Taylor begging at Brooke's feet would be all kinds of satisfying.

Instead, it was just pathetic and sad. The character and the actress are just terrible. I have that German secondhand embarrassment watching this as did Brooke, whom you could tell wanted to bolt but couldn't because poor Kelly would be left alone with this whackadoo.

I think you're right, there was no episode up on the CBS website either.

Our soaps were not shown on the east coast due to George HW Bush's funeral.  Did we miss much?

I think CBS pre-empted the show for the funeral.

I also checked several times on cbs.com and the Dec. 5 full episode was never posted.

I swear during the final seconds of that Taylor begging scene, HTy was having a hard time keeping a straight face.  But it is hard to tell with all the Botox.

If somebody doesn't turn that hypocritical sanctimonious harpie in, I'm gonna be mighty pissed. But ... I want for it to be a long torturous process ... with the constant threat hanging over her head for several weeks and taunting from Brooke, Hope and $Bill. 

[Petunia13]

Here in Chicago it aired the episode y’all I think saw yesterday. I think my local station is off schedule because of preemptions due to local stuff from November or maybe some shooting scandals over the summer. 

Taylor begging Brooke was cringeworthy and poorly performed. Also the writing...just a day or so ago she was in Brooke’s face screaming insults and threatening her. Now Taylor grovels at her feet. Who asked for this? 

I was creeped out when Ridge professed his loyalty to Taylor, then they and Steffy clasped their hands solemnly huddled in alliance. Can Brooke just divorce him already? On the grounds of hypocrisy and, possibly, witchcraft? 

I saw a magazine blurb with the actress who played Sasha today, now she was someone I could believe as a model for FC, unlike Zoe who has weird mouth underbite situation and kinda androgynous look. On that note Donna as a fit model? Maybe not for runway, but maybe Steffy’s bedroom line, I doubt Steffy or Sally are interested in sewing her into anything and patting her down. 

@RuntheTable so cute- I love when dogs lay like that or when they sleep and bark in their sleep or kick legs ❤️😩 

Rena Soffer is 50 WOW. All these women on the show look so amazing. Pam is still completely focused on halting Quinn, an actual employee and her bosses wife, meanwhile a lunatic has wandered the building freely shrieking like a banshee. 🙄  

[Waldo13]

Thankfully the last half of today's dribble was preempted by GHWB's funeral procession. I find it quite humorous that a funeral procession has more life to it than B&B in recent days. 

[Petunia13]

Did anyone get foreshadowing that no one, not even Bill, is heeding Brooke’s fears regarding Taylor? 

Everyone is hand waving her concern, watch Brooke and Kelly will end up harmed her. 

[Gam2]

There’s no question in my mind that Taylor will shoot someone else to try to keep her “secret” and stay out of prison. Everyday more and more people know about her shooting Bill so that cat is out of the bag. And OF COURSE, Ridge and Steffy are holding her hands and supporting her and telling her it was a one time mistake. Like, you know, that time Ridge bribed the judge and that time Steffy fell on top of Bill’s penis when she was married to his son. Yeah, like that. This will not end well, folks. Not well at all.

[RuntheTable]

Show's new mantra:

 

I didn't like too much of what I saw today. Fucking Ridge had the balls to talk to Brooke about "defending Bill", when what she was doing was looking out for her nephew. And you know, Brooke never defended Bill for anything he did to Liam or Steffy….Oh, no, sorry, that isn't quite right, she did though. She actually had the temerity to lay voice to the truth, and refused to buy into this nonsense about Steffy being attacked, or coerced, or forced, or anything other than acting like a horney little Bitch who needed to scratch an old itch otherwise known as the Stallion. So, no, I guess that means that Brooke was defending Bill. But look at you asshole. Sitting there with a woman who has already taken the life of one person, and who recently put a bullet in the back of another. And are you shocked? Outraged? Hell no. Instead of being even a teensy tiny bit concerned, you engaged in a fucking family kumbaya moment. The fuck? The actual hell? God, you are just a turd. And no doubt you will be all over Brooke about saying nothing, because, you know, Taylor was just having a bad day, and she was mad a Bill. So there really isn't all that much to it. I mean, Steffy got mad at Liam and found herself on top of Bill, so weirder things have happened.

I agree with @Gam2; this will not end well. 

Pam's lack of respect is astonishing. But if something happens between her and Quinn; guess who will be going down. 

Eric's hands were exceptionally busy today. 

@Petunia13, thank you, she is a Diva, and a spoilt little Princess, but as you can see from her photo, she sure ain't no lady. 

[Anna Yolei]

I'm officially Team Tridge at this point: not because I ship it, but because they're both horrid people who truly deserve one another and Brooke can be forever free from Ridge.

With any luck, Taylor will shoot Ridge right as he knocks her over a balcony and we'll be rid of them both.

Well, of Ridge at least. At this point, I'd put money on Taylor to survive a nuke being dropped from 100 feet directly overhead because she is fucking Teflon at this point--probably even literally.

[CharlizeCat]

I couldn't believe it today that Taylor somehow managed to twist the entire situation around to it being Brooke's fault. You know, the old, "Brooke stole EVERYTHING from me ... " uttered in that wretched croak.  How about being grateful to Brooke for not turning her in? Instead, Teflon Taylor is coercing Ridge to make Brooke keep her word. The nerve.

If I were Brooke, I would have laid down the following ground rules to ensure silence:

1. Do not come to FC under any circumstances

2. Stay the complete fuck away from Liam and Hope. No contact whatsoever

3. Ditto with Bill

4.  Mandatory continued therapy plus random checks for possible alcohol consumption

5.  Apologize to Brooke for previous years of abuse.

6.  Apologize to Hope for previous and ongoing abusive behavior

Taylor can hang out with Steffy, Sludge and Kelly as much as she wants. I really don't care what happens to any of them. I wish that Liam would insist that Kelly go live with Hope and him while Taylor is on the loose.  Taylor can be allowed supervised visits. There is really nothing she can do to protest without blowing everything wide open. However, it might be too much stress on Hope to try to care for a baby while she's so far along in her pregnancy.

I just want for these people to pay! (I know they never do, but there needs to be some consequences here in lieu of spending time behind bars.) Just promising to not go to the authorities and a vague threat of "I'm keeping my eye on you," just isn't enough.

The only thing Brooke "stole" from her was the child she had with Nick; but given how quickly she ratcheted her paranoia and dumped the kid off to Brooke when the crying kept her boyfriend up, I'd say that evens out Brooke's buttinski bullshit there.

But Ridge? She lost him all on her own the minute she told Ridge about James and he saw her for the hypocrite she was. The dragging he gave her is in my top three favorite ones on this show, right behind the DARE rant from Bill and Eric reading Liam 2 years ago. She might be winning points back for having shot Bill, but good lord he's such an odious pig who can't even fit into a Speedo anymore, so what good is he to anyone now?

At any rate, she can STFU. Her own crazy behavior is gonna lose her Steffy , and Brooke can't be blamed for that one.

[Cindylou]

Did Ridge just shut Taylor down on her Brooke bashing?  Was I seeing a different show yesterday, when he took up for his wife and Taylor to basically shut it about Brooke? 

 

Taylor is so gonna hurt someone..... and I'm betting it's gonna be either, Steffy, Ridge, or Kelly

[CountryGirl]

I think Taylor is going to go after Hope and cause her to go into early labor with the baby's life in jeopardy. I think the baby will ultimately survive - she better survive. What I'd like to see is Taylor being committed to a psychiatric facility since she's clearly off her rocker and that Steffy leaves town for a while to be nearby and visit her/get her settled in, coinciding with JMW's maternity leave.

 

And I think I'm right about Hope going into premature labor and, dare I say, the baby survives, due to this: B&B has a casting call out for identical Caucasian babies around 7 lbs that could look like a preemie. The twins or triplets must be identical.

Maybe. He's actually an OBGYN. There's an obvious joke about what her post-surgery mouth resembles, it'd be more in his area of expertise. 

So weird that Taylor went off on her tangent about Steffy being robbed of her life with Liam, with Sally right there. Sally & Liam sharing that near-death kiss was what ultimately made Steffy leave Liam that fateful night, & accidentally fall on Bill's stallion, through no fault of her own. 

Brooke really is right to be concerned about batshit crazy Taylor. She is most definitely going to harm someone else, & it might be 1 of the babies. She's like 1 of those hardcore Brad Pitt/Jennifer Aniston shippers, who hates Angelina Jolie for ripping apart Brad & Jen, & can't let it go, over a decade & 6 kids later (yes, I know they've since split, too). When everyone else in the triangle has happily moved on, you need to let go, crazypants.

OOOOO-kkkkaaay......

Did anyone else get the show in Spanish today?

Weird...the commercials were in English.

[Waldo13]

Taylor just can't keep her mouth shut (no pun intended) by telling Zoey's father, a stranger, her tales of woe and frustration, but, in true soap opera fashion, it will probably bring them closer and closer together. Zoey's father flirting, with Rubber Lips, is another sure sign that romance is in the air  

Once again, Fuck Ridge. But I wouldn't expect anything less than him condoning Taylor shooting Bill.  

[Joimiaroxeu]

Yeesh, Reese looking at Taylor like she's what's for dessert. But he seems like he might have an agenda. In Catalina.

Guess Steffy had some leftover bags of hair and they dumped them on Zoe's head. WTF was that hairdo on Zoe? Looked like something out of Star Trek:

Oy, I don't know who's more delusional, Taylor or Ridge. How do you make excuses for shooting someone in the back? If Taylor does end up hurting Kelly, Hope, or Hope's baby, Ridge will blame it Bill.

Where were the rest of the Intimates models? That scene looked to me like a cheaped out way to have Reese and Taylor meet.

Edited December 8, 2018 by Joimiaroxeu

[CharlizeCat]

In real (normal) life, most men (and women) would run for the hills if a man/woman they just met immediately dumped all of their life's problems at their feet.  It would make sense for Reese and Taylor to spend a lot of time talking since they were the only "older" adults at the party and both are physicians, but SHEESH! 

Can you imagine being on a first date with Taylor?  She sounds like a broken record. 

[RuntheTable]

 

I......um......?

This shit is too fucked up. I am confused and annoyed and irritated. I can't understand how Taylor put a bullet in Bill's back and left him to die, but Brooke is being played as the bad guy. You know what? The fucking Marone gang can just get outta here. I am so sick of their sanctimonious whining and blaming, and their collective, absolute blindness, to what horrible people they are. Outside of self defense; there is no excuse for shooting someone. None. Just like there is no excuse for pushing someone over a balcony. Certainly not because your daughter had consensual sex with a man, or because that same man threw the first punch. What kind of society would we have if we all lived by those rules? Brooke is the only one who has maintained a clear vision thorough all of this mess, going all the way back to SkyeGate. She walked out on Bill for ordering Spectra to be torched. She listened to Steffy, and knows that Bill did not take advantage of her. She was outraged, but she didn't shout and yell at Steffy, she did her best to be supportive. Considering she had only been divorced from Bill a short time; I think her reaction was pretty contained. She was also the only one who saw what was really going on with Will's custody battle, but because she wanted what was best for Will, and for Bill, as Will's father, she was seen as the bad guy. Her position wasn't one of defense of Bill's actions towards Liam, Wyatt or Steffy; she consistently condemned Bill for those. But Bill hadn't been a terrible father to Will. Sure, he had been absent for too long, but so was Katie, the only difference is Will was only an infant when Katie was MIA, and couldn't voice his confusion and pain. Up until that time however, Bill had been a great dad to Will, and it is clear that Will loves his dad. You know, when you think about it, the one who has been "brokering peace" is Brooke. The one who has had the clear vision, and the one who is now rightfully concerned about her granddaughter's safety. But she is the delusional one. She is the one with a problem. Not the fucking wack-a-doodle who just laid out her most intimate life secrets to a complete stranger. Taylor has no polite society skills, and rejoices in blabbing painful and personal information in the most social settings. Write a book cow. Start a Brooke bashing blog. Start a "I Hate the Logans" Facebook page. Do anything that will cause you to stop flapping those lips. 

And Steffy girl, you better wake the fuck up. You have seen your mom acting nutty too many times now. How many people have come to you expressing their concerns? Now, you have just witnessed your mom blabbing your personal life to a room full of people, with only two of them having any kind of history with you. Taylor's inability to stop herself from these public displays is clear evidence that she has no control. Taylor is going to hurt someone all right, but even that is going to go wrong because she will be gunning for Brooke or Hope, but will end up hurting Steffy, Ridge or Kelly. My money is on Ridge. 

But Brooke will be held responsible.

I feel like with Steffy’s hair and makeup they are trying to make her look like The Love Witch or Lana Del Rey. But she’s not as beautiful as Samantha Robinson 

 

 

or Lana

[smartyshorts]

If Taylor could successfully kill Sludge and possibly Stuffy, I would personally inject Botox and fillers into her face to her heart's content for the rest of her life! And Dr Windsor Castle is obviously some kind of con man...why else stand there and encourage Crazy McFlapping Lips to tell you more and more about her personal life at your FIRST meeting? Any one else wouldve excused themselves to the nearest open window or door. The way he kept encouraging her to spill more and more of her version of The Tea was off putting and enlightening at the same time.  The fact that he is an OBGYN scares the crap out of me for Hope's sake too.

 

Dear Ridge...unless someone breaks into your home with intent to harm you and yours, there's no  excuse to start laying down lead. You can't "stand your ground" in someone else's house. 

Edited December 9, 2018 by smartyshorts

[Petunia13]

That would be fucked up if Taylor uses her new pal Dr Wayne Brady OBY-GYN to cause Hope’s baby to pass away or have birth defects. 

[Gam2]

I missed this show yesterday but from y’all’s description of TayTay launching into a soul clearing tale to a man she’s never met before...if we needed any more proof that she’s cray cray, that’s it. Can’t wait to see this show on Monday. 

[SweePea59]

If they killed Taylor a third time does anyone anywhere think she'd stay dead once and for all?

I honestly don't want to see her killed off again, but I would like  to see her carted off in a straight jacket. Kind of like that principal in Rock N Roll High School.

[La di Diva]

Maybe Cray Tay will persuade Dr. Windsor Castle** to help her kidnap Baby Lopetina and tell Lope the baby died at birth.  I have to say Dr. WC can't be much of a doc if he doesn't see how cray Tay is.  Seriously, who spills all that nutty Tea to someone she just met minutes ago.  Steffy were you watching and listening?  Your mother isn't stressed and/or upset. She unhinged. Her therapy isn't working, if she's even in therapy. I'm betting not.

And of course Sludge isn't disturbed that Tay shot Bill in the back and left him to die.  Sludge threw Bill off a balcony to do the same thing.

** Great name! Thanks smartyshorts

[CountryGirl]

So whackadoo spills all kinds of tea at Steffy's shindig and instead of making like Forrest Gump and running like the wind, Dr. Wayne is all 

My only conclusion is that he's a whackadoo, too.

Hope - you better be the one running. 

[backhometome]

Agree, Brooke’s hair looks great on her like that, beach waves are overdone....are you listening Hope..was she trying to hide them with that stupid hat...we know you are a throwback to another time all of a sudden but geesh going a bit overboard arent’ we??  

The room won’t stop spinning when Taylor is on screen, I feel like I am in Vincent Price’s wax museum and can’t get out!  Maybe a new haircut on Taylor would help in stead of the 3 string look, one down the back and one on each shoulder!  A nice angled chin cut would do wonders me thinks!  

[Swiss]

What is the story with Zoe's dad?  I'm getting a creepy vibe from him.  And Hunter Tylo's face is truly horrifying..

[Waldo13]

What is with the hat Hope is wearing?  Are they trying to make her look like a teenager again?  What's with Stuffy's hair?  I guess she adopted the Morticia Addams look. With the Addams family in mind, I changing Thorne's name from Condor to Lurch. 

Instead of therapy, Taylor has to get acting lessons. 

As an aside, my daughter is a photographer's assistant. She does hair, make up, location, and the hiring adult and child models. In her professional opinion, the current Kelly looks like a little boy.  

[Gam2]

Agree with all of your comments, Waldo13 except that the current Kelly looks like a little boy. She looks like a little girl to me because she resembles my daughter when she was that age. And Kelly has the most beautiful eyes I’ve seen in a very long time. Wow. She’ll be a man killer when she’s grown!

[Joimiaroxeu]

What's with Hope's Boy George meets Rickie Lee Jones circa 1982 look?

Within the past week or so both Brooke and Hope have referred to Taylor's "deep-seated" emotional issues. Only when Hope said it the closed captioning read "deep-seeded." Hmm.

'Tis the season to fall off the wagon, huh? First Nikki in Genoa City and probably soon Taylor in Malibu.

Reese is not even in town a couple of days and already he's looking like he's about to veer out of his lane. I'm betting he's not gonna want none of Brooke's squinchy-eyed smoke though.

All I see when I look at Taylor anymore is the Joker.  Her face doesn't move and when she smiles it looks quite menacing.   If she ever asks Brooke if she's "Danced with the Devil in the pale moon light"  I may keel over!  The only way I get through her scenes is to make fun of her unmovable face,   I think HT used to me a semi-acceptable actress, did the botox suck that dry?

[CharlizeCat]

If Steffy is smart, then she needs to remove any and all bottles of anything containing the slightest amount of alcohol from her house ASAP. 

I am still not convinced that Taylor will harm Kelly, unless Steffy does not heed the advice mentioned above, and Taylor starts drinking while Kelly is in her care.

I am thinking more along the lines of Hope, Liam or Brooke.  I can easily see Taylor going off the rails on Hope and/or Brooke and Liam/Ridge  or Steffy stepping in to intervene and getting hurt. It would make sense with Steffy, as there needs to be an "out" story for when JMW goes on maternity leave.

I kind of liked Zoe's hair. I think the stylists were going for that "Christmas tree" hairstyle that is trending right now. At least, we were spared, the LED lights, tinsel or tiny ornaments that are supposed to be included as accessories.

I am getting a strong creep vibe off Zoe's father. The sad (mostly self-imposed) saga of Lippy's life is absolutely none of his business and he has no place to intervene. He is not in a relationship with Taylor; they barely just met.

I can't believe Taylor is still dredging up the past. Even Sludge looked exasperated.  Phoebe is dead. Thomas has a career as a successful designer and a "family" with Caro-lyin' and Douglas. As far as we know, he's happy. Steffy appears to be moving on as well. I never thought I'd ever say this, but I am proud of Steffy. I don't even pick up that she's just biding her time to undermine Lope.

BTW, when is Taylor finding time to go to her therapy sessions? HTy's face just looks so terrible, especially her cheeks. They look like they have been filled with cement. The waxy white skin doesn't help. Some blush and contouring might help, but maybe the show's makeup artists have either given up or have no clue what to do!

I also take back what I said about liking Taylor's hair color. After seeing it 360, yeah, it looks pretty bad. That is a terrible highlighting job.

I only caught the last few minutes and obviously, I didn't miss much not watching the entire show.

Brooke's hair looked beautiful. Hope...yeah, I was getting a Debbie Gibson vibe from her and I noticed that she's got quite a bit of dark blonde grow out. I think it's fine if she reverted to her natural color with some highlights.

I honestly don't even know what to say about Whackadoo, but Kelly looks scared as hell.
