Setting the climax amidst a storm isn't innovative storytelling but sometimes you gotta just play the hits. It works. I also like how the lights came on just as Rick learned Erica's identity, signifying his "enlightenment" and allowing him to finally see Erica clearly (as she's trying to sneak out the door).
Even though Sheila's actions at the end didn't make any sense, I was riveted by these last few episodes. Skipped all the scenes with Eric and that hobgoblin.
I actually liked Beric when little Ricky was born. I felt that if the Bells had chosen to write a different way, they could have been like Nikki and Victor over on the sister show.
And we get the flashback for Finn and Steffy's wedding soon on the other season, the timing is pretty nice. Although I think the Sheila reveal at their wedding is cheesy, I appreciated the effort at least
OH WOW!! Thank goodness for Amber. Someone should turn this episode into a comic book plot. Stephanie and Massimo are both superheroes! And I always thought Erica/Mary had a conscience, but instead she proved me to be a as deceitful as her mother.
Well now that the script needs it, Rick finally mentions the shooting Stephanie incident to Erica which he somehow forgot to mention when she questioned him about Sheila
With this recent bonding of Eric and Brooke, I think it would've made much more sense to put them back together. Then it would have ended this new random friendship between her and Stephanie. Stephanie could have stayed with Massimo. And Ridge could've had a brand new love interest after Taylor's death. Instead they go the lazy route and eventually put rebound Bridge together 🤢🤮
And here Sheila is, taking yet another unnecessary risk. Why is she showing up in the one place where she knows she will get caught? She has no reason to believe that Eric will help her in any way.
Not that I'm rooting for Amber or anything, bc I really don't care what happens to her, but .. What, exactly, is she fighting for? Her husband has been doing absolutely zero all this time, but moan with the babysitter about his bad life and how much he can't trust Amber. He basically did nothing to save his marriage. You'd think Rick would have hired a PI to investigate Lance, with the same zest as when he wanted to find Deacon to get custody. Or get a lawyer on the case, like when he was pestering jonathon to draw up the custody papers for lil Eric. Taylor had to call Connor Davis AND pay Amber's bail .. Amber's going to go back to Rick who didn't lift a finger to help her, but who was throwing a party for the babysitter, for doing her job of babysitting? Honestly if I were Amber, I would see Rick as a big red flag and let him go with Erica.
I appreciate that Rick doesn’t give into temptation. This whole thing reminds me of Thorne when he first slept with Brooke. Thorne was diving into the bed. He didn’t care about his wife.
@@WhistleMeThis I like that about Rick aswell.He is not the one to give into temptation easily and takes commitment seriously.Reminds me of a conversation he has with Brooke about importance of family and whether she loved Rick and Bridget the same when she was begging him to leave Amber for Kimberly since apparently he didn’t love Amber the way he did Kimberly. He even chose to stay with Amber when Tawny had pointed a gun at Kimberly and everyone thought Rick would end it.IMO he is unlike Brooke and Eric in this regard when it comes to following temptation and has somewhat of a mature outlook like Stephanie.The only time he kind of cheated Amber was I think with Amanda when they were playing some stupid game and he kissed her.
Eric starting to feel himself a little too much with Brooke finally ogling him again🙄but little does he know she’ll go straight back to his son as soon as his wife dies
I am glad that I misremembered earlier, and we actually do get to see Sheila and Stephanie in the same scene in this storyline. It is, however, not a really satisfying scene (which is probably why I forgot about it), as Stephanie's main focus is on Amber, and Sheila's on Massimo, and so Sheila and Stephanie only speak a few words to each other. They will eventually have a real conversation before Sheila's exit, though.
I agree. I do like how even though Sheila's holding a g un, Stephanie is fearless and unafraid to check her, "I think you're a terrible person. What have you done to your daughter?" Just like at the Goodbye Party when Sheila was also holding a g un and Stephanie remained unbothered and called her crazy. 😂 That's why Sheila had to shoot her in the back last time. Waving a weapon in Stephanie's fa c e doesn't faze her.
The fact that Sheila and Steph didn't have their whole rivalry play out, with Sheila focusing on Amber for some strange reason this whole time, makes the story underwhelming. The 5 minutes it took Steph to figure out it was Sheila and who was her daughter was the most riveting part of this whole storyline.
Lol when Erica tried to run but ridge and Rick seen her I like how massimo tried to run after shelia even with the gun in her hand it’s just ridiculous they had massimo character not recognize that was shelia
It makes total sense that Rick would think it's impossible that Erica and Mary would be the same person. There's no way that someone who was a toddler in 1998 could be a teenager in 2002😂.
What a disgusting family affair. If Brooke and Eric remarried Hope would have been his stepdaughter, while she would have been Bridget's stepsister at the same time. Didn't they truly remarry in the future?
Brooke and Eric remarry in (2005?). However it’s brief and there’s no love/romance storyline. It lasts for like a day and I think they just do it to get back at Stephanie and take control of the company. Something like that.
Sheila's the perfect villain. I wonder where they found this actress she always looks the part of a sociopath... blank look on her face and the smooth tone of her voice, shes been playing this role for decades. The next ep should be another great one.
Erica Lovejoy's fictional name has all sorts of embedded messages. Ofcourse Erica is derived from Senior Forrester. But if you say her full name out loud, it sounds like:"Eey, Rick. A lovejoy!" Sounds like junior Forrester wasn't feeling it though.
Sooo.. As usual, Eric's family is falling apart, and it takes Steph to save the day, while he's none the wiser and more interested in his s E x life. Meanwhile, I had to chuckle at Brooke's declaration that it wasn't often she felt that something was wrong with her children... Of course she never felt that, bc she's too self absorbed to know if they were alive or unalive. Only reason bridgit has her attention now is bc she's obssessed with getting back in her good graces.
Taylor death gonna let the show sad for a long time … but next year we having Macys back and who else , oh Sheila will ruined ridge n Brooke honeymoon in South Africa 🇿🇦
I know, but James had nothing to do with Erica's cringy behaviour. It was all Sheila's doing. After all she robbed James of his fatherhood when she kidnapped Mary as a baby.
Wow never watched these episodes, in full or in a row. Sheila shot Steffy, Taylor, Brooke, Finn and Sheila is free and is married to Deacon. How is she not in Jail ?
isn't it amazing massimo is saving the forrester family and eric the wimp is busy flirting with brooke the lay me down logan. typical and not surprising.
@@donnaharris2192 it would be amazing, except it's Eric (as you correctly said the wimp), who never knows his family is in trouble bc he's always too busy looking for the next woman to run after. Steph is always saving the day.
For now …. She will turn crazy psycho as soon as woman would turn around deacon , or Steffy still attacking Sheila or Finn’s another obsession , Sheila can’t be normal after that 30 years of craziness on both shows !
After all this, I hope Amber kicks Rick to the curb. Believing that psycho's daughter over your own wife. Then Erica says she didn't know but yet she's had plenty of opportunities to tell him the truth since she found out.
Still a strange writing for the Stephanie-Eric marriage. Eric never brought up the topic of getting a divorce, even when his wife lived with Massimo and Eric had to think that these two are romantically involved (Massimo being Stephanie's date at the Whip-Brooke wedding). Now Stephanie and Eric have gotten closer again, Stephanie now living at the second Forrester guest house and they spending more time together.... - but today Eric seems to enjoy flirting with Brooke.

Right?! You always know something bad is going to happen when there's a thunder or snowstorm.
LOL Sheila's pointing a 🔫 and Stephanie just ignores her and runs over to Amber. 😆
@@sharonstewart4882 now that is stan worthy 🤣
Steph is a bada$$😂😂
steph is just da baddest 💥
Even Mass gets behind her and leaves no doubt about who the real bada$$ is 12:32 😅
LOL Steph knew Sheila would only shoot if she was threatened, if Sheila wanted Stephanie outright dead she would've shot immediately 🤣
Even though Sheila's actions at the end didn't make any sense, I was riveted by these last few episodes. Skipped all the scenes with Eric and that hobgoblin.
I skipped Eric and Brooke.. Her voice and Eric's face were annoying me... Came back to them the 2nd time watching
Yep me too.
@@TriniT21me, at the third one, where Brooke' s place belongs 🥉
The costume department needs to get a Zorro mask and a cape for Stephanie.
And a Superman S on her chest and a Batman B on her belt 🦇💪🏽💪🏽🦸🦸
The costume department should put a welding helmet on Brooke 😂
Brooke in the kitchen talking to her one true love and the father of her children. You love to see it. ❤
@@SuzanneAllen-ne2nr you are kidding right.
Brookes only true love is Brooke.
Eric's only true love is Eric.
They only cares about themselves.
@@andream5998 I think she's trolling the Stans 🤭
I actually liked Beric when little Ricky was born. I felt that if the Bells had chosen to write a different way, they could have been like Nikki and Victor over on the sister show.
We are getting VERY close to the iconic Sheila, Eric, Taylor and Brooke showdown.
It was a great scene.
And Taylor's demise :(
😢
And we get the flashback for Finn and Steffy's wedding soon on the other season, the timing is pretty nice. Although I think the Sheila reveal at their wedding is cheesy, I appreciated the effort at least
Sheila always missed her shot with Eric (double meaning).
😂😂🤣
Well put! 😂
But Brooke sure didn't. 😆
Too bad.. 😂
OH WOW!! Thank goodness for Amber. Someone should turn this episode into a comic book plot. Stephanie and Massimo are both superheroes! And I always thought Erica/Mary had a conscience, but instead she proved me to be a as deceitful as her mother.
She turned obsessionnel with Rick like Sheila did with men !
The full circle moment of Stephanie being the one to save Amber from Sheila this time 💜
Ridge: Rick Forrester, meet Mary Warwick.
It's all over for Erica. Her dreams are now shattered with the truth now out.
Well now that the script needs it, Rick finally mentions the shooting Stephanie incident to Erica which he somehow forgot to mention when she questioned him about Sheila

Don't forget so called Taylor like alike Dr. Tricia Quick!😂
17:50 Not sure if Eric thought that Brooke had returned or if he expected Stephanie. 🤣 But I am 100% sure he didn't expect Sheila.
And here Sheila is, taking yet another unnecessary risk. Why is she showing up in the one place where she knows she will get caught? She has no reason to believe that Eric will help her in any way.
I think at this point Sheila had just lost all her mind
theres no sense ....except if the believed that somehow eric would help her to escape
She wanted Eric tò help Erica because she didn't want her tò became a pariah, this Is the reason She went to Eric's
Not that I'm rooting for Amber or anything, bc I really don't care what happens to her,
but

@@456TanuYes. He has a commitment to marriage and fatherhood. This has been consistent with his character.
i never understood his love for amber
@VjAdrasaVideos because you don't understand, period
Eric would have taken Brooke back in a heartbeat. He knew it and she knew it!
He should have.
Just so we could see her leave him again
@@TriniT21 That would be fun 😂
I would have loved it if they remarried only for her to cheat on him with ridge again and get pregnant.
Eric, sniffing around Brooke. Sheila blaming Stephanie; nothing is ever Sheila's fault. So, much for locking the doors.
Typical Brooke and Sheila classic reactions here once again 😅😅
11:28 Mass talking to Sheila about her child takes on a much deeper meaning knowing what we know now about his son, Ridge.
Look up baby Hope in Brooke Forrester arms😮 such a precious little girl
U&ly Brooke.
Eric starting to feel himself a little too much with Brooke finally ogling him again🙄but little does he know she’ll go straight back to his son as soon as his wife dies

Mary Warwick needs to make a comeback on B&B now
To meet Finn lol and Steffy would hated her 😅😅😮
@@filionsteve2133 Finn needs to meet his half sister lol
And Little Eric is now her stepbrother
It makes total sense that Rick would think it's impossible that Erica and Mary would be the same person. There's no way that someone who was a toddler in 1998 could be a teenager in 2002😂.
Why wouldn’t Massimo and Stephanie WAIT FOR THE POLICE ?!
I think they thought Amber won’t survive till then.
Sheila was at giving all ambers pills 💊… she would die quickly 😅😅

I really wish they had kept Rick and Amber together, she really had changed.
This was really an awful night from one end to the other of L.A
Love that Sheila n Stephanie little chat here
So looking forward to the scene where Ridge chokes Sheila out at the police station after my sweet Taylor dies. Some of Ron Moss's better acting.
Eric Logan has been giving Megan Logan a run for her money as Brooke's echo chamber lately.
Sooo.. As usual, Eric's family is falling apart, and it takes Steph to save the day, while he's none the wiser and more interested in his s E x life.
Meanwhile, I had to chuckle at Brooke's declaration that it wasn't often she felt that something was wrong with her children... Of course she never felt that, bc she's too self absorbed to know if they were alive or unalive.
Only reason bridgit has her attention now is bc she's obssessed with getting back in her good graces.
Sheila made a huge mistake not shooting better at Brooke and not shooting eric at all.
Eric should have been her target
I am so glad these episodes are coming to end now all hell going to break loose😮
Taylor death gonna let the show sad for a long time … but next year we having Macys back and who else , oh Sheila will ruined ridge n Brooke honeymoon in South Africa 🇿🇦
Brooke loves wearing these washed out colors.
@@Esi-741 that’s why i LOVED the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it auburn hair in season 8!

This is start of the episodes for taylor death
You mean the start of the boring part of B&B
@@Idrisabduraham eh idk 2003-2008 had some good storylines. It wasn't until Susan and Ronn left that it started getting torturous to watch.
Shame on the writers for that
Sheila has no one to blame but herself
Mary could have a good life with her dad
So nice to see Stephanie and Amber bonding
Erica's attempt to se du ce Rick is beyond cringe. She really is James' daughter.
I know, but James had nothing to do with Erica's cringy behaviour. It was all Sheila's doing. After all she robbed James of his fatherhood when she kidnapped Mary as a baby.
Right. No finesse...
3:35 Ridge come to warn Rick about Erica that she is Shila daughter. 17:55 Shila come to Eric house with the gun.
Was another great twist as well !
Wow never watched these episodes, in full or in a row. Sheila shot Steffy, Taylor, Brooke, Finn and Sheila is free and is married to Deacon. How is she not in Jail ?
I always ask myself that too! She should have been in prison for life, or better still: preventive detention in a psychiatric institution
And Stephanie and almost Lauren early years
Mary Warwick sure grew up fast in 4 years lol
Stefano Dimera, you could have taken Sheila down if you really tried 😅😅😅😅
Adios Erica 🤣🤣🤣

He has like 3 sisters that aren’t even mentioned.

If Erica should have stand her hround with Sheila maybe she could have better life 😊
I’ve forget she shoot on Massimo direction 3 times !!!
Best episodes 😱
About time Rick grew some and told that girl to back off.
This is back when B&B was worth watching! It’s not hitting on nothing now!
Since 2,3 years it’s getting so low and boring and Flat ..!
@ I know and it’s the same storyline just with the younger generation I don’t even watch it anymore. I just look at the young and the restless now.
But people say Sheila is a better mother than Brooke. 😂. Actually I don’t know if that’s funny or scary.
After all this, I hope Amber kicks Rick to the curb. Believing that psycho's daughter over your own wife. Then Erica says she didn't know but yet she's had plenty of opportunities to tell him the truth since she found out.

The best one !
All this medical staff and female stunt doubles in the cast credits is a warning for what is to come…

Lame ass story. Amber should have been R.I.P.
The juxtaposition of the dramatic compelling scenes of amber Stephanie etc ,with the mind numbingly boring scenes off Brooke and Eric
