Two more months until Josh Griffith is officially gone all-out! Hallelujah! Cannot wait to see what Dan O’Connor does.
B&B needs to bring Matthew Atkinson back and reunite Thomas andvHope the Lopeless pairing is definitely the bold and the extremely boring and how odd after all the trouble Liam has caused in the Logan family that he and Hope have been put on the back burner how strange.
I believe the actress who portrays Steffy is actually pregnant. Clever way to allow the actress to continue her role without having to take a lengthy leave from the show.
Uhm, she’s not… don’t spread information like this around.
Allow Steffy to be a surrogate for Carter and Dapney
