THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL Preview: Brooke’s Secret Plan Seems to Blow Up in Her Face as Ridge and Taylor Give in to Their Desires
Before the close of 2024, The Bold and the Beautiful is giving us yet another story where Brooke’s (Katherine Kelly Lang) intentions are misunderstood thus putting Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Taylor (Rebecca Budig) back each other’s orbit, errr this time, in bed.
Last week on cliffhanger Friday, as Brooke has become the new CEO of Forrester Creations and revealed to Zende Forrester (Delon de Metz) that she installed herself in that role in order to wrestle control of the company away from Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor), and her daughter, Hope (Annika Noelle), her husband, Ridge is hitting the sheets with her arch-rival for his affections.
At the end of Friday’s dramatic conclusion, Brooke has come to the Forrester mansion wanting to talk to Ridge seemingly to reveal her secret plan to get the company back for him, but will she find him in bed with Taylor … or will she get inside the door before they finished the deed?

Meanwhile, Luna (Lisa Yamada) has seemingly been beaten up, leaving Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) shocked, but is it all a ploy or did something happen to Luna while in prison?
Then, things get creepy fast for Electra (Laneya Grace), after she winds up seeing Remy’s (Christian Weissmann) wall plastered with photos of her. Does she finally realize she has been in danger all along and that he has been smattering AI images of her naked on the internet? Stay tuned.

Now weigh-in: are you over Brooke trying to do something to help Ridge, only for him to go running to Taylor? Are you rooting for Ridge to go back to Taylor and dump Brooke, or Brooke to dump Ridge? Share your hopes in the comment section below.
Where in the world is RJ during this entire story! It’s ridiculous your parents are at odds there is a company takeover zende is all in the mix but no RJ Love bold but they often throw people on the back burner with no explanation at all. Write Taylor out if you need to the ridge Taylor Brooke noise is so wash rinse repeat and nu Taylor just is not cutting it !
I think RJ has disappeared you know when Brad gets tired of writing for you poof you are gone. The actor was weak at best I would recast but whatever. Brooke and Ridge are getting way too old for childish games and yes RB does not fit the part. Offer Jack Wagner the moon to come back as Nick he has great chemistry with Lang which sadly TK does not
Real-life budget issues the reason why we don’t see key characters appear at times where their absence is head scratching. No Thomas or any other Forrester or Logan at “International” weighing in, even on Zoom (like Jill does on Y&R ) makes no sense. Can’t afford to pay the talent, budget lean. RJ missing makes no sense given his status as a hybrid Forrester-Logan. He’s literally related to almost everyone! Especially noticeable on a half hour show where one regular enters and another exits (Thomas out Taylor in) and still others disappear.
Budget cuts ???? He is a multi millionaire Brad Bell he could pay the kids salary out of his pocket just cancel the show it’s just beyond anybody that has a brain .
I can’t stand Taylor, I wish they would just take her off the show and I can’t stand Steph either. She is stuck on herself and the best thing they could do is get raid of her. I do like Brooke and she should be with someone else than Ridge, who treats her a lot better than what he does. And I can’t stand Stephanie.
When will this foolishness with Brooke, Ridge and Taylor stop? Something goes wrong and Ridge high tails it to Taylor. Does this woman have any respect for herself? I wish they bring on a new man for Brooke in the new year and move her away from the other pathetic twosome!
I could not agree more. The very minute Brooke “displeases” him he hauls ass to Taylor. Remember that mess in the mountains. And Taylor always ends up looking like a fool! Ridge deserves to end up alone.
It is time for Brooke to move on. Ridge, Taylor and Stephie have gotten real old. It is time for something new to start. You would think they are the only ones that exist on this show. Will there ever be a lasting relationship. I also think Taylor needs to go back to France or somewhere for good. Maybe Ridge can make a one woman decision.
Ugh show awful with any luck you will be canceled /brad won’t suffer a multi millionaire idiot
This whole soap opera is a mess and not worth watching. Especially now that Matthew Akinson is gone. No longer in the credits.

Beyond the Gates
BEYOND THE GATES Preview: Andre’s Blast From The Past Is Set To Turn His Life Upside Down

On Beyond the Gates, Andre Richardson’s (Sean Freeman) “happily” married life to Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) is about to be tested like never before on upcoming episodes of the CBS soap opera the week of August 17-21.
After the shocking reveal on the Friday, August 14 cliffhanger, viewers learned that the person who was sending Andre ominous text messages is none other than The Impaler herself, Heather Armstrong (Ashley Jones). Clearly from the latest promo for the action at the Bowman hotel and in and around Fairmont Crest (see below), Andre knows Heather quite well, as she makes moves on him.
While all this is going down, Dani tries to diffuse the Dupree family for thinking there is anything going on between her and her ex-husband, Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett). Dani’s behavior over Bill being in the hospital has been of someone who is still deeply in love with the guy (specially because of her very public outbursts) and as viewers know, she recently had sex with her ex in the elevator at the country club during a tornado!

HEATHER ARMSTRONG IS ON THE HUNT FOR ANDRE
Poor Andre has no idea about the elevator liaison, and recently visited Bill in his hospital room to tell him to stay away from his wife, when and if he gets out of his hospital bed! But now, the tables may be turned, if Heather gets her claws into Andre.

Now below, check out the CBS promo for all-new episodes of Beyond the Gates.
Then let us know, do you think Andre knows just how dangerous Heather is … or he has no idea? Will Heather blackmail him into sex, or will he go willingly? Is the end of Andre and Dani for good, or will he continue to be the upstanding guy in their relationship, even though he knows in his heart that he cannot compete with the pull of Dani towards Bill?
