I knew Bill was going to see Brooke and I didn't want to miss their interaction....
FIRSTLY...It was truly innocent...SECONDLY....It was the only part of the show worth watching THIRDLY....Their chemistry is palpable wether Brooke admits it or not....FOURTHLY.....They would make an amazing power couple...And FITH And Finally...The complete audacity of Ridge who just came back after hugging and flirting with Tayter Tot and telling her he loves her to shake his head in disgust was just another reason I will continue not watching until Brooke comes to her senses and realizes that her real destiny was just holding her in his arms.....this is Just my honest opinion so for people who don't agree then let's just here and now agree to Disagree.....Ridge is a self righteous parasite and Tayter Tot deserves him......I wish them much backburning Karma.

Yes please give us Brill - I am so sick of the Forresters and their hypocrisy, manipulations and snarkiness. Ridge is an utter fool and deserves to be stuck with the Tridge babies. Let Brooke move on with Bill and be the power couple they can be while teenie bopper Taylor looks over her shoulder all the time as Ridge seethes with jealousy.

Yes to the innocent part and yes to the chemistry, and yes for Ridge's hypocrisy.
But no to Bill and Brooke being a power couple. They could never be a power couple when Brooke systematically and always chose Ridge over Bill. And a power couple would never start the way they did when Katie had her PPD.
I enjoy their friendship and I hope it stays that way. They get along a lot better when they are NOT together.

Today's scene felt more like closure to me. We know Bill will have a date with Li soon, and Brooke and Ridge are still together in 6 weeks from now. Ridge makes his decision in Aspen and the Aspen scenes were filmed this week. If there is a Bridge breakup in the horizon, it will be around late October, most likely the November sweeps. And we also know "circumstances will lead him to make a decision", ===> the decision he is going to make is not the decision he would make without those circumstances. I think it will have to do with Douglas' Voice app.

I strongly disagree...if they can write out Tayter Tots complete horrible history of all her wrong doings then they can also overlook how Brill got together....Not to mention Katie doesn't want a reconciliation with Bill so there is nothing standing in their way except the writers......Funny how everyone else can Be redeemed except for a select few......I for one Vote Brill all the way

My comment had more to do with Brooke's feelings for Ridge and Bill than Katie. Brooke and Bill can never be a power couple because she has never picked him over Ridge. The only time she dumped Ridge for Bill is when she caught him and Quinn in Australia. She married Bill on the rebound but couldn't stop thinking about Ridge; and eventually she had her marriage annulled and went back to Ridge, even if Bill still wanted her. All the other Brooke and Bill reunions happened when Ridge wasn't available for Brooke. The first one happened when Ridge was living in Paris. The second one happened when Ridge left her for Katie. The third one happened when Ridge was married to Caroline Jr. The forth and last one was the rebound wedding, and we know how fast that marriage ended.

Even Ridge has picked Taylor over Brooke occasionally. Now he clearly loves Brooke more, but in the 1990s he was torn. Brooke has never been torn between Ridge and Bill. Ridge is the love of her life. She loved other men and Bill is one of them, but never enough to leave Ridge.

Is this fair to Bill? Doesn't he deserve someone who loves him and only him? Can that person be Brooke?

I agree with alot that your saying and I understand that Brooke always for some ungodly reason unbeknownst to me returns to Ridge.....But it is my true and honest Hope that after all this Garbage that Ridge has been pulling lately and not just with Tayter tot but with Quinn and Shauna as well that she finally wakes up and gets a clue that maybe just maybe that her and Ridge are toxic and she needs to find another way....I just liked her and Bill together they seemed real and believable and had great chemistry....But no I don't want her reuniting with Bill if she's only gonna return to Ridge whom by the way I can't stand his characters personality.....

No matter how many men or women come between Bridge, after all these decades of breaking up and making up there's no way Bell would ever have either of them move on with someone else for good. Even Taylor still can't move on from Ridge after he left her at the altar twice to go back to Brooke. And Brooke forgave Ridge for leaving her for her own sister or for sleeping with her when she was unable to consent, so how could anything that happened between him and Quinn, Shauna or Taylor be a deal breaker that makes her stop wanting him?

Me too! Love their chemistry. He would always put her first.

He wouldn't. He even put a building before her when they were married! And he put himself and his own selfish needs before her several times, like when he was emotionally blackmailing her to join him in that secret room behind his office if she didn't want him to leave Katie. Or when he was kissing her against her will in her husband's office a few months after she got remarried to Ridge.

I think it will have something to do with Sheila.

I’ll support Brill if Katie doesn’t whine on and on. The reason their relationship is palpable is because this Ridge seems to have so much hostility in his heart. But like you I can’t watch Brooke worrying about Ridge.

Thank you! Yes! So infuriating watching Ridge chastise Brook for innocent nothings while he is always at Taylor’s and they are pawing all over each other! What a hypocrite!
