Re: B&B Come Sail Away

Unfortunately, B&B throws away its most promising characters and the
actors who portray them on a regular basis.  I think most of us really
liked "Whip" Jones, for instance.  There have been others, but I'm too
tired and bored with the show to go further with this....

The show has been a real trial to watch for quite some time.  I'm
really close to pulling a "Wadley" and bailing for good.  I just don't
care about any of the story threads at all.  So damned pedestrian and
predictable.... <sigh>  The exact opposite of Y&R, especially
recently.

>The Marone family is now pretty much a core family. 

True, but it's still all about Ridge and Brooke.  Instead of Brooke
driving Steph insane, Mass gets to bear that burden now!  LOL!

>Nick has a lot of potential along with his mother Jackie...

There have been many characters that have had potential.  Where are
they now?  On the ol' B&B scrap heap.

>...and I'd really like to see them do something
>creative with them and not the regular campy, ho chasing skank scenarios.

I wouldn't get my hopes up!

>Frankly, I think Brooke is rather one-dimensional and Christine-like
>(personality wise that is). 

Really?  Hmmm.  That wouldn't have crossed my mind.  I see some
parallels.  Men cannot resist the siren call of either of them, for
instance.  (Don't ask me why!)  But I don't see them as having similar
personalities.

>What does she have that any of us regular female posters don't? 

JPEGs required for me to make a judgment!  :-)

>She slept her way to her job position. Actually,
>she's pretty much slept her way to everything she is. 

Chicken and the egg?  Is she a slut 'cuz she sleeps around, or has her
sleeping around turned her into a slut?  <Tongue firmly in cheek
here>.  Actually, I've always seen Brooke as a dim-witted twit,
lacking in self-control and never seeing the consequences of her
actions *before* she acts.  A loose canon, so to speak.  Very
dangerous type of individual to be around!

>Remember when she had a bed in her office? 

Yeah.  Really subtle...

>I think that says it all. Too bad Taylor died. I'd
>like to see Jack hook up with her if only to piss Ridge off.

I'd like to see Jack hook up with someone decent and nice.  Yeah,
yeah, I know....
