Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) have officially disintegrated following the Monday, January 6th episode of The Bold and the Beautiful.

During a tension-filled conversation, what at first, seems to be Brooke and Ridge coming together and mending fences turns into Brooke’s worst nightmare.

Brooke explained to Ridge why she agreed to take on position of CEO of Forrester Creations. She explains she was going to reason with Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and Hope (Annika Noelle) and make them give the company back to Ridge and Eric (John McCook). Her plan was done out of love and loyalty for him.

Ridge says he believes her, but then goes at her about not using the moment on the livestream to denounce her own daughter, Hope and Carter. She tries to reason with him, but Ridge continues on about resenting her for not defending his family. Brooke is infuriated at how quickly he dissolves their relationship time and time again and goes running to Taylor (Rebecca Budig).

Brooke hauls off and smacks Ridge in the face,after how he refuses to see her side of anything. She tells him to enjoy being with Taylor .. his second choice.  As she storms out of the Forrester mansion, Taylor comes in and before you know it, Brooke pushes her out of the way, before she makes her grand exit.

Take a look at part of the conversation between Brooke and Ridge below.

Now let us know, are you fed up with Ridge? Brooke? Are you rooting for Taylor and Ridge? Doesn’t Brooke have some merit to the points she made? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

KKL brought it in this episode nice slap and nice Taylor toss those 2 losers Taylor and ridge deserve each other and I will say it again Rebecca Budig is no Taylor!

Absolutely right,so glad she slapped him,he deserved that and much more let that mealy mouth Taylor have him. His family is a complete mess of trouble and Steffy the witch. I hope and pray that Carter and Hope along with Brooke rise high and succeed in there business. I hate to see Eric hurt though he has always been there for Brooke.

Yes I am tired of the Steffy getting her Way how many times she went after Liam and I been sick of Taylor

This is so unwatchable why can’t you just etc Ridge and Brooke be together so tired of the back and forth and
If Ridge and Brooke breakup why can’t Ridge have someone else so tired of the Brooke van Taylor…writers need to change the script we habe been through this before just let Ridhe and Brooke be happy. I’ve been watching for over 30 years come one B and .

Their destiny socks! And it’s old

As many times as Hope did

Blah, blah, blah… this soap is TIRED!!

Put a fork in it. This triangle is done.

This whole soap is done.

I am getting sick of Steffie getting her way with Ridge, anything she suggests he does it! I wish someone would kidnap Steffie and take her far away!! Ridge isn’t a man he is a wuss!! Taylor isn’t even a good actress! Take her off already! I’m going to watch it this week and if it is still the same crap that’s the end for me. I have better things to do, like clean the toilets!!

Steffy*

ridge has alot of nerve what has he done all these years but flip back and forth between to stupid women he wasent loyal to taylor when they were first married he left his marrage and children to go with brook and back again with taylor i stop watching the bold and the beautiful years ago because of it the writer need to move on to new topics and story lines if they want me back as a viewer thortstan is to good of an actor to be on this show at lease when he was on all my childen he has a meater roll to play.

Ridge just has to have a woman. Always between Brooke & Taylor. He is terrible.

I wish they would bring Nick Marone back with Brooke’s son. They can turn the company back over to Forrester’s and then use what they’ve learned to bankrupt it. I hate this story line and the way that they are trying to make Brooke the bad guy. I don’t watch any more I can’t stomach it. Once in a while I will read a recap. You know once they get the company back Steffy is going to have an even bigger ego

If Ridge goes back with Taylor, I will not watch the show again!! I’m sick of the cheating he does without thinking of who he hurts. I wish Brook and Taylor would both drop his ass and they could bring on more men to the show for them. Leave Ridge high and dry!!!

Exactly what I said!!

Yesssss great idea and I’ve always said too to bring Nick Marone back for Brooke, they would make a hot, great couple together, she probably headed back to her Stallion maybe, cause Katie’s always been right about those two….

Nick and Brooke would be awesome
Taylor would drop Ridge in a heart beat
She has a history of going after any man interested in Brooke
Is Steffy aware that Taylor has also been with all the Forester men including Brooke’s son as well as others
Taylor tries to come off as virtuous- so not so Phony!!!

I’m rooting for Brook! I can’t stand that holier than thou and egotistical A** that Ridge is. Then he has that poor, mealy mouthed Taylor along with Steffy and Eric to back his worthless self. I would like to hope Brook will wash him off her heart and feet. Sadly, the heart doesn’t work that way.

That is not the characters Bill Bell created and it is an insult to both Ronn Moss and Hunter Tylo what Brad has miscast and changed who they were.

Wish they could bring back Ronn Moss. He was just so much better

Ridge is a jerk for what he is doing to Brooke he won’t even listen to her. Seems like he couldn’t wait to jump in bed with Taylor. Really sick of this story line. I think Brooke would be better off without him. Find her a new man. I don’t watch Stefy anymore she’s a real witch and she makes me sick. All Foresters think they are better than anyone else. I record my episodes of BATB and don’t watch episodes with Steffy in them. May end up not watching it anymore to many spoiled rotten Foresters!

After 35 years if watching, I stopped…the storylines are e horrible and the names ridge called hope is ridiculous. I couldn’t believe the writers sank this low, especially when steffy has killed her niece and shields twin. Ridge is a dick and belittles women in genral.

So true

Look up self defense please

Brooke has to move on from Ridge. It’s been years & years of going back & forth with ” her destiny”. Who on earth in real life would put up with him. As for the “World Famous Psychiatrist “, she can’t even see what her own daughter really is… A spoiled little rich girl who gets her own way with Daddy & Mommy & Granddad & her weak husband Finn & of course the ever waffling Liam. Carter the first man to stand up to her. Oh, PLEASE don’t tell me I’ve given the Writers a new Storyline.

Either bring back Jack Wagner as Nick Marone for Brooke or pair her back up with Deacon. I cannot handle Tristan’s Ridge these days. He seems to be sleeping through his lines now that he has won best actor two years in a row.

It seems like there’s no limit to B&B’s ability to simultaneously destroy characters and create preposterous stories. The whole FC takeover story is ridiculous, and the character of Ridge has become insufferable. Not to mention Taylor, who should know by now that Ridge is only settling for her because of Brooke’s perceived deception and support of her daughter. And Rebecca Budig is totally miscast in the role, which is making the whole situation worse.

Also, where is R.J. in all of this!? He should be pivotal in this story, given that he’s Ridge and Brooke’s only child together. What a mistake it was letting Joshua Hoffman go, ditto for Matthew Atkinson. Both R.J. and Thomas had much more story potential, especially in a story like this one.

And then there’s the whole mess with Luna, which makes zero sense. She was convicted for double homicide (with no trial!) and is allowed out of prison on house arrest less than a year later!? In the care of the man with whom she’s obsessed!? Completely implausible, and yes another reason R.J. should be around. But I guess now that psycho Remy is MIA, Luna will cause trouble for Will and Electra, before the writers inevitably drop them like they do with all their young characters.

It’s a tough feat given what’s going with the other soaps at the moment, but B&B has the laziest and most ridiculous writing BY FAR.

Nobody liked Popeye he’s fine being fired

I’m sick of Ridge going back and forth I have quit watching it

Finally Brook slapped Ridge and dumped his fat butt. Rebecca you ain’t no Hunter Tylo! Ridge lose weight and clean up, you’re too sloppy for a Forester. Steffy you are the biggest hypocrite and liar alive, you needed to stay in that cage. Finn is another wimpout. They already have Luna thirsting for Will, whoops looks l8ke she won’t be under house arrest for long, what a ĥoe. I hope Carter finds Daphne Rose and Steffy out soon, don’t let high on her horse Steffy keep winning. I only watch this flunkie show when there’s absolutely nothing else good on, including Premium channels!
Hey, whatever happened to Shela being the resident baddie?

Go to streaming then

Good! Leave the jerk, his bitchy daughter and rhe no self respect idiot in the dust! She will survive and thrive and that dog will come sniffing around again.

The writers make Ridge a wussy little lost boy who always has to be with a woman
AND fix his hair

So happy that Brook finally stood up to pathetic ridge,and hard up Taylor. Those 2 act like they are so perfect, Brook has it all over them Now,please clip Steffys wings,once in for all

I am all for Ridge and Taylor unity and pray this time RIDGE finally stays with her.. that’s where he belongs

You got these butthurt logan azz kissers wishing bad on Ridge and Taylor. BROOKE is a horrible woman. How many times have she cheated on Ridge with other men alot. But these so called fans wanna sit here trashing the forresters especially Steffy. They think Brooke slapping Ridge is a yay movement. Is not.

Exactly! And let’s not forget how Brooke’s trashed Thomas and Steffy for years but now she acts so hurt that Ridge called Hope out of her name. Puh-lease! Ridge has no reason to want a future with a woman who can’t accept his kids.

I love thorsten as ridge, very talented, not his fault writers give him bad storyline, I stopped watching a month ago after being a fan for yrs, the brook ridge Taylor saga ridiculous after yrs, and spoiled Steffy always interfering and getting her way when she’s done so many despicable things, Finn should be tired of it, since writers can’t come up with any new storyline after yrs of repetition TAKE IT OFF THE AIR

I love how Brook slapped Ridge he had it coming & how Brook told him off& then Brook shoved Taylor out of her way.
I like to see Taylor leave she’s too flimsy
Why have do you have Taylor? Is it true Ridge isn’t a Forrester? Instead of having Ridge & Taylor scene how about digging who’s the actual name right to Forrester Creation that would stir up an ant bed.

It was about time she stood up to Ridge and speak up for her daughter and I’m so tired of the same people getting back together let it go already and steffy needs to take care of her own family where are they now anyway please give Brooke a new new man and tell her to tell ridge bye boy

I can never get tired of Ridge and Brooke love story, they’re the reason I watch bold and the beautiful, so please don’t separate my favorite couple

I can’t stand Taylor please hurry up and get rid of her and her weak character

Ridge is a drag and Taylor is a chronic complainer they deserve each other, but watch out Taylor your always runner up and he uses you two dumb twits , Sister WIVES

Ridge=narcissist. I’d love to see an exciting murder mystery. The victim obviously should be Ridge. Bye bye

I’m so sick of the repeat story line the Brooke, Taylor ,Ridge bring someone else into the fold. I know it’s only a 30 min show ,but damn bring something new.

I’m sick of Steffy too acting as if she’s never done anything wrong or interfered in relationships. I can’t stand her or her daddy.

Brooke and Taylor are very poor role models for women! I’m disgusted with the way they let Ridge control them! Get a backbone and dignity! Writers let these women, stand up and say enough is enough, and kick Ridge to the curb!!

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Has Dylan’s Mystery Caller/Stalker Been Revealed to Be an Alive Luna Nozawa?

Published

on

By

We have another scream machine on her hands at The Bold and the Beautiful after the dramatic ending of the May 1 episode, and that would be Dylan (Sydney Bullock)!

B&B is finally making some headway on just who was the person behind the mystery call that Dylan received telling her they have some “unfinished business.” At the time of the mysterious call, it was clear that the voice was altered to disguise the true identify of the person on the the other line.

On today’s show, after Dylan and Electra (Laneya Grace) exchange words in the wardrobe room about Dylan wanting to rebuild their trust and friendship and how Electra has issues stemming from way back trusting anyone after what Remy (Christian Weissmanm) did to her by befriending her and then plastering deep fake nude photos of her across social media.

Photo: JPI

The timing of Electra bringing up Remy is also interesting to us, as we had previously reported now that Christian Weissmann is back and on on contract with The Bold and the Beautiful, he’s already teased that Remy has another connection to someone on the canvas, which many are still believing its Dylan.

At the end of the episode, after Electra leaves the room, Dylan hears noises coming from behind the dress rack. She asks, “Jamie” is that with you? After no answer and a bit more hangar and dress ruffling, a figure steps out behind it, while Dylan is looking down at her tablet trying to get back to work.

When Dylan looks up, she lets out a scream that could be heard to Nebraska, as viewers see partial view of what looks to be a woman with long dark hair from the back. Dylan in shock, says, “It’s you!” We fade to black.

So, what’s going on here? Is the reason the caller said to her that we have “unfinished business” because on Monday, it will be revealed to actually be an alive and well, Luna (Lisa Yamada)? Did the two strikes some sort of deal, that allowed Dylan to help Luna escape after Luna supposedly died after Dylan ran her down with her car, which was all off-screen? Another theory, is the mystery caller is Remy and he is doing some sort of Luna fakeout on Dylan for a yet to be revealed reason.

What do you think is going on? Did Lisa Yamada just make an on-screen return to The Bold and the Beautiful? Share your thoughts and theories below, but first check out our recent interview from back in March on the Michael Fairman Channel when Lisa who attended the BBTV app launch party.

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Nick Confesses His Drug Problem to Victor; Joshua Morrow, Mark Grossman, Eric Braeden Bring the Newman Bond

Published

By

When The Young and the Restless can deliver an emotional side to their stories and their family dynamics, it usually makes for some great scenes delivered by their A-list cast.

Such was the case on the Friday, May 1 episode when Adam (Mark Grossman) and Nick (Joshua Morrow) returned to Genoa City and gave their father, Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), an update on what had gone down with Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) in Las Vegas.

As Victor questioned, “What the hell happened?” Nick piped up, “We both made mistakes along the way, but we’re here now and we’re sorry for giving you so much worry on top of everything else that you’re dealing with,” which was in reference to Victor trying to reclaim his company Newman Enterprises et al.

NICK’S CONFESSION

Next, Nick, explains one of the ways he messed up while trying to go after Matt Clark, when he admitted to this father with tears in his eyes, “That’s one of the ways I messed up … I took Fentanyl willingly. Some of it was because of Matt, but most of it was on me. I was in a lot of pain, dad, after my accident, I was burning through my prescription meds really quickly after I left the hospital. I could see that it was becoming a problem. But honestly, I thought that I could manage it.  I was wrong. I was out in LA and Matt had taken Noah (Lucas Adams) and Sienna (Tamara Braun) and he gave me this bag of pills and said I could use it to trade for information. When I went out to that drug warehouse, he was trying to convince me and Sharon (Sharon Case) that Noah was a drug addict. I just put the pills in my pocket of my jacket and I came back to Genoa City and I was in a lot of pain, dad, and I was wearing that jacket. I put my hands in the pocket and the pills were there.”

Nick sadly added, “I was desperate. I couldn’t get anymore prescription meds, so I took the fentanyl  I’m deeply ashamed that I was so weak, but all I can do is stand here and tell you the truth that I’m going to make this right and I’ll get better.”

BROTHER TO BROTHER

Adam stood up for his brother and reconfirmed to Victor the plan for help Nick through his pill addiction, “Nick is already on his way to doing that. Sharon has set up an appointment with an outpatient facility. He’s going to do the meetings and he’s going to push through this better than ever.”

Courtesy/CBS

“You should also know that the only reason I’m standing here is because of Adam,” Nick confessed to Victor. “Every time I fell, you were there to pick me up. You risked your life to save me, and that’s not something I will ever forget.”

In the climatic and emotional ending of the scene, Nick in tears admits his shame to his dad, who comes in to give him hug. Nick says, “I’m so sorry. I know that this is the last thing you or this family needs.”

All three actors, Joshua Morrow, Mark Grossman and Eric Braeden, were excellent in this exchange in their scenes, but at its epicenter continues to be the Emmy-worthy performances by Y&R MVP, Joshua Morrow. Nick’s heartbreaking journey and fall from grace with his pill addiction problem has finally shown the clinks in the armor of the man who is always on the ready to help others … now he needs to let others help him through this. Can we do it?

So, what did you think of the scenes between the Newman man featuring Joshua, Mark and Eric on the Friday episode of Y&R? And though who watched also know that at the very end, Matt Clark who clearly has been injured wakes up from being conked out, so there is more revenge to come on the Newman clan. Share your thoughts below, but take a look at these scenes from a Canadian viewers who saw them air yesterday.

DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Sophia Seemingly Plans to End Her Life, But Not Before Setting Fire to Johnny’s Apartment With Him Trapped Inside

Published

on

By

The final few moments of the Thursday, April 30 episode of Days of our Lives, will pave the way, to what just may be the end of Sophia Choi’s (Rachel Boyd) life, but not as you may think!

After an unhinged Sophia paid a visit to Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman), maced him in the eyes, knocked him out and then tied up to a chair, now conscious, she lets him know that she holds him responsible for all the trouble and trauma she has gone through from adopting her child, and her being sent to a mental institution.

So instead of the unregistered gun Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) gave her to finish off Johnny, Sophia sets up a plan to light candle, use nail polish remover and turn on the gas on the stove to ultimately create a mass explosion, which although Johnny pleaded to her not to that to all the innocent people inside his apartment building, she doesn’t seem to care.

FIERY FACE OFF

The plan was supposed to be, after she takes care of Johnny she will toss the gun in the Salem River, then focus on payback to Holly Jonas before leaving town to start a new life.

Now, Sophia makes her exit, leaving Johnny to be a few moments away from an explosion or gas inhalation, when Chanel (Raven Bowens) comes home after awaiting the results of her mammogram. She sees Johnny tied up, as he panics and tells her to put out the flame on the candle, things go awry, and a fire has begun and everything may go up in flames with Johnny and Chanel inside.

A BROKEN SOPHIA

Back in her room, Sophia breaks down after reading the social media comments about her, she planted, and then starts writing a suicide or farewell note which says. “I’m tired of begging for forgiveness for my mistakes. All I wanted was to move forward, to be loved and understood. But it’s clear that I was never going to get that. Holly Jonas said that I was dead to her. So, as her former BFF, I’m going to make her dream a reality.”

A DEADLY TRAP

Now, the fate of Johnny, Chanel and Sophia will be revealed on tomorrow’s May 1st cliffhanger, which may be the end of Sophia when she crosses paths with Kirsten at the bridge near the river. We do know Rachel Boyd is no longer appearing in the show credits section and is now off contract with the soap.

So, what did you think of the climatic final moments of DAYS? What did you think of the performance of Rachel Boyd as Sophia Choi? Let us know via the comment section.
