    BORING.... DRAWN OUT WAY TOO LONG

    I used to like the show but the way it's drawn out with this soap and the Hope/baby story is boarding on absurdity. Week after week goes by and finally someone gets a conscience to tell the truth and then they change their mind. Are the creators and writers of this program so unimaginative that they can't come up with the new storyline, and therefore drag this on and on and on for months? I used to watch it faithfully but now I just tune in once in a great while to see if the truth has come out., but no dice. I guess maybe that'll happen when the kid goes to college. End this stupid storyline and get on with it!!!!

    Fire the writers

    OMG some one needs to fire the writers. The story lines are sad and sorry. Everything is so predictable. The sad story lines are even make the actors act weak and sad. Who hasn't screwed someone on this show. Can't y'all come up with new people? If the writers need help coming up with new material I'm willing to help. I'm not even a writer but I know bad writing. I go weeks without watching this show and when I start back watching it's like it's in the same scenes that I left off at. This show needs a major overhaul. At least we've gotten a break from Liam's whining. Please end it now!!!!!!!!!

    Drivel

    I can't believe how bad this is. I've only been tuning in about twice a week for about four months. I find the writing predictable and the characters annoying. It's almost as if someone decided to try to come up with the worst soap ever. Well, they succeeded. Wait - I think the ill - fated Passions might have been a tie, but that at least was funny. This is like soap opera 101, maybe geared to the junior high crowd. The men are all controlling and the women are like characters from the 1950s.

    I'm sad to see Jacob Young here. I was a big fan of All My Children, we all know what's happening with that. AMC was everything that this is not; it had great writing, it was classy and the actors made the characters come alive.

    Also I'm surprised that Bell also produces Young and the Restless, which is far superior to this drivel.

    Hope losing Beth! Ridiculous

    How much longer is this show going to make Hope be in pain over losing Beth? I am about to stop watching this show. Then this show is going to have Steffy adopt Hope's baby!! That's wrong as wrong can be!!! Your story line is Ridiculous and I hate it!!!

    Taylor the Bobblehead is worse than the constant consistency

    If it wasn't for the fashion I won't watch this 15min show....commercials make it 30mins. The content is so repetitive it gives me a headache! These stars can do better than repeating themselves 50 times. And stop making Taylor a clueless bobblehead. A renound physiologist? The cashier at IL Guardinos could do better!

    • Trivia
      As of 2025, John McCook and Katherine Kelly Lang are the only actors still in the show since the first episode from 1987.
    • Goofs
      The interior of the Forrester mansion does not match the exterior of the house it was based on (creators William J. Bell and Lee Phillip Bell's); the front entrance is the same however from the outside you can see this part of the house is single-story only, whereas inside are high vaulted ceilings and a staircase to the right of the front doors leading to a second floor. The house also has large bay windows on either side of the entrance but these are not present in the interior set.
    • Quotes

      Stephanie: You think this is all my fault? You have brought this on yourself.

      Brooke: All I ever did, Stephanie, was to love Ridge.

      Stephanie: And his father, and his brother, and your son-in-law. Is it any wonder Bridget is confused? I mean, is it any wonder your daughter would confuse natural feelings of respect and affection for romance? You have blurred the lines of socially-acceptable behaviour. And you stand here and you tell me you're proud. What are you proud of? Having your son-in-law's baby? I know what you're proud of. Chasing after a man whose wife's body is barely cold in the ground.
