Not a good year for the “woke” lawyer shows, apparently. ABC also dropped the ax on their show “For Life”. Neither show was my favorite, but there are far worse things on both networks they could have cancelled instead. And speaking of ABC and axes dropping…. why the Hell haven’t they mentioned anything about a General Hospital renewal yet? This is making a Devil slightly nervous.

The show was promising the first season, but the second season suffered. I watch TV to be entertained, and the COVID impact on the show was not entertaining. I know they tried to be realistic, but it lost its focus.

B&B’s Don Diamont Granted Restraining Order Against Alleged Stalker

June 15, 2021

The Bold and the Beautiful’s Don Diamont (Bill Spencer) was granted a temporary restraining order in L.A. County Superior Court against 37-year-old Quincy Adams; who Diamont says has been harassing him and his family since back in January.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Diamont alleges that Adams took to YouTube saying Don was a Satanist and responsible for COVID, 9/11, and the Iraq war. In addition, Adams claimed to be connected to him some way from birth.

It was then that Don grew increasingly concerned when the man shared online that he knew where Diamont and his family lived.

Then came June 2nd, when Adams showed up at their front gate and Don received a call from his wife, Cindy. The police handled Adams from there, but Don was very worried that Adams might harm him, or his family, so he was granted the temporary restraining order against him.

We wish Don and his family nothing but safety in the days ahead.

So what do you think about the claims and actions of Adams on Diamont? Comment below.
