@@-Lily7415 the only love of Eric's life, is Eric. Brooke's the obssesssion he can't have. That's why he's always acting like her little spineless minion, hoping one day she'll reward him by throwing some affection his way.
Bc she doesn't want the competition. This throws me back to Brooke in almost the same situation bridgit is now in, only she was actually sleeping with (and turns out pregnant by) the man her mother loved. Beth begged Brooke to not be with Eric and Brooke flat out told her she was going to be with Eric no matter how it hurt Beth. Now, she wants to give bridgit a lecture on this?? And she's not even really bothered by the grossness of Ridge and bridgit who used to be bro and sis up to a couple months ago. What she's really bothered by, is bridgit actually being competition for her. Honestly.. She needs to take several seats bc she isn't winning mother of the year. I don't know why Bridigt went when she summoned her to the office. Bridgit should not even be speaking to her mother
I don't know why Nicky is so upset. I cam understand if he is worried about Bridget with whom he shared some deep moments. But for Brooke, it is so out of the blue.
@annieo6527 Taylor was introduced carefully because she came after JJ and also because HT had to be tested , to see if she worked with the others in a three years old show. Now these two, just like Massimo come in and pretend to be a huge part of the show. Another difference between senior and junior writing.
@@babs4848 they just don't feel real to me. They don't act like they share the same fictional universe as the rest of the characters, and don't relate to the other characters realistically. They act like they know people who _don't_ actually know them (which is how a viewer would relate to these characters).
For yhe ones who still say the actress in the thumbnail has never had surgeries, I will bring you back those episodes as soon as we see her " changed". And yes, HT did it too 🦜
When Brooke says that she made some "terribIe mistakes", but she did her best, what exactly does that mean? That she did her best to stay away from Deacon and succeeded in only sIeeping with him 5 times?
"You're not a vindictive person" basically means "if you're as good a person as I think you are, you will forgive me." And since Bridget actually _is_ a good person (but somewhat confused), this is exactly the kind of comment that works on her. @Faye has observed before how Massimo and Stephanie use Bridget's goodness in order to encourage her to act a certain way. And now Brooke is doing the same.
Brooke is absolutely counting on her daughter's non vindictive and malleable nature to get bridgit to do what _she_ wants. She feels like if she just says "yeah I was bad and did bad things following my heart and I'm sorry, but _you_ can't be bad.." that will sway her daughter. I guess the only person who can follow their heart no matter who it hurts, is Brooke. Really reminds me of when Beth tried to convince Brooke being with Eric, who was the love of Beth's life, was wrong. She didn't count on Brooke's no good, vindictive behaviour.
@@VanessaLutz11here I am, a brunette from southern Italy 😊. But I have got a very dark 🟤 hair son with olive skin ( just like me) and one with light brown hair and pale skin just like my mother.
@@babs4848 😊 genetics are funny 😆 but Southern Italy does have quite the mix ( in a good way). I have two brothers - one has dark hair and very light skin, the other is blonde with hazel eyes and olive skin.
@@VanessaLutz11 that's the Mediterranean people mix I guess. My elder son after two months of sun at the sea looks more like a carribean with Italian features 😍. Southern Italy is in the middle. Great mix😉.
How convenient that Brooke decides *now* is the time to act like an actual mother, telling Bridget what’s best. Right when the “right thing” is not being like the 10th rival for Ridge’s affections. What a shame these maternal instincts didn’t kick in when she was getting knocked up by Bridget’s husband.
I smell manipulation because Brooke (and Eric) as caring parent is not believable. She is pretending to look like the victim here and Bridget helps her a lot. Not only has Brooke gained another love interest: Eric has a new woman in his life too. And I really can't st a nd Jackie.
Not Brooke telling bridgit she would be better with a man her own age 😅😅. This coming from the woman who slept with, got pregnant by and married a man 2 times her age 😅. And then she was with Deacon who was actually closer to her daughter's age. It seems the only person who can follow their heart and hurt everyone in the process, is Brooke. She's not concerned about Bridgit's state of mind.. She's concerned about eliminating what could turn out to be viable competition.
Nick lecturing Ridge on the mother daughter business. Hmm.... Nick's accomplishments.... Brooke, Bridgett. Then there's Bridgett with her mother-in-law's husband.
Nick did more damage to Bridget and Brooke than anyone. Yet, Brooke didn't think it was wrong to have an affair with Bridget's husband. Brooke isn't interesting unless she is fighting another woman for a man. Brooke feels safe telling Ridge no, as there's no competition
I would like to know what will be Nick's reaction to baby's Hope s conception. Probably Brooke will say him she was a gift from g o d... And also, Ridge is not my favourite character when he is not with Caroline or Taylor. But Nick going to him to make things clear about something that's not even remotely his business is annoying.

"This guy has played mother against daughter. You just don't do that." Nick Marone, in a comment that will _not_ age particularly well. 😂
I don't remember this season after Taylor's de ath.
But Nick really is getting on my nerves, and his mother of course😂
Lol.
But also, clearly he hasn't met Eric who did it first
Watching these old storylines give me LIFE!
Nick is to Bridget, what Ridge is to Brooke. An obsessive and toxic "love"
"I made some terrible mistakes as a mother but I did my best"...
She can have this written on her 🪦..
The fact that Brooke thinks this is the _best_ she can do...
Watching this great episode on Christmas morning sipping hot coffee! Merry Christmas everyone 🎅
Yeayyy youtube 🙌👍!!
Merry Christmas to you! 🎄
Sounds like a wonderfully peaceful Christmas morning
"I had more babies paraded in front of me than a department store Santa!"🤣😂🤣😂

Brooke was there for the first Christmas.
Eric forgave Brooke in 5 minutes for hurting the most important thing to him as he said - his child, but forgive Stephanie?? No
It seems that the true love of Eric’s life is Brooke
Not Stephanie or his children.

@@TriniT21 I’ll agree with that !
Eric is no good husband and Stephanie always put him first Eric doesn't deserve her
Brooke telling Bridget to end her infatuation with Ridge when Brooke herself is infatuated with him
She doesn’t need anymore competition…for the “family” ofcourse
Bc she doesn't want the competition.

Nicky and Jackie are just overly involved in everyone else's lives because they are Bell's shiny new toys and he wants them in every storyline.

I can't sta nd these two in Taylor's house. Nick is worried about Brooke and Bridget relationship. What a joke
He hardly knows them
@@VanessaLutz11@Annie is so right about these two as viewers rather than the characters of the show.
How is Lauren able to rent out _Taylor's_ beach house??
@@sharonstewart4882 practically is Ridge's house now. So it could have made more sense if he was the one who wanted to rent that house.

That’s her best 😂
It's the best she could do..
😐😅
You know Brooke, always making "sacrifices" for those she loves😂
Love the beach house❤flowers are so lovely❤
I would love to see Taylor in that house in season 9.
That was a wild era. Reflective of a time. Shows how much a single massive change in a world. Suddenly Ridge is gone from "Forresters" world.
"I did my best"😂😂😂
If this is the best what the hell could be the worst 😅
Ridge - Ronn Moss - looking incredible handsome in bright colors
And with his hairstyle back😊👌
This is when the spectra’s got replaced by Jackie and Nick who are dull by comparison. Such a shame.
Exactly. Such a downgrade.
And it's all of balance. Too many people who support Brooke. Stephanie looks like a lion in a cage. Taylor was her best friend and she has gone.
YES! The Spectra family is way more interesting.
Yeah😵💫....everything really changed and not for the better!! All I remember is Jackie in her bath tub and the young men
@@tiroyaonejustinphologolo9763 Spectra's were way more interesting and had a life outside of the Brooke Show..

Can't wait for Nicky boy to find out about what his Mom was doing for a living and to find out he is a marone 😃😃😃
Nick's foot on the table???????!!!!!!!!!!! 😮😮😮😮😮
There is no reason for a fiftysomething year-old woman to call her fiftysomething year-old son "Nicky"🙄
Also, there is no reason for a fiftysomething year old woman to _have_ a fiftysomething year old son.
@@annieo6527 that too. It was such an odd casting choice.
Not Eric saying his family is the most important thing in his life 14:48

Merry Christmas, Everyone!😊
Mick Cain and McClain had a brunetto brother rivalry over that sweet strawberry blonde. And Forrester and Payne will both be longing for her equally.

Hey Nick, who asked you to interfere in other people's personal lives?
where is episodes 2143-2371 ??? season 8-9 ??????????????????
New years star 2025

And even when’s fighting other woman for a man she’s still not likable
Brooke how dare you
Ha ha Ridge with a telescope
Hhh I wonder where Bridget got her infatuation from oh dear Brookey hhhhh
Massimo is like Frankinstein
3:00 Do they always have those fake Truman show clouds outside at the beach house, or was it only due to bad weather this time?
In 2024 any one like Bridget would be no contact with a mother like Brooke. None of this Ridge bs would have happened either.
Not sure what Ronn Moss look is suppose to be but IMHO it is so bad. Story is bad. Is that it? The age difference alone is sick.
Why is that any of your business Nick!!! Your gonna do just that what you are accusing Ridge of. So but out.. Popeye!!
