I feel that we are seeing the end of Bridge. Long term and maybe forever. Down the road, the truth will come out about the CPS phone call and Ridge will realize that Brooke didn't lie to him. However, by then, Brooke will not be the least bit interested in him. She will have moved on and will not look back.

I hope you're right, but I don't think it's done forever. I do think they're done for now though. Even if Ridge finds out Brooke didn't lie I think he'll have laid it on so thick with Taylor that he won't know how to break it up. So he'll stay with her, while pining for Brooke. Eventually, he will leave Taylor though, especially if Brooke decides to move on. He's said hundreds of times what he feels for Taylor is nothing close to what he feels for Brooke. Here's hoping Brooke does decide to move on though. Enough of bending over backwards to make this weak man happy!

If Ridge goes back to Taylor because of that lie, Brooke sleeping with Liam woudn't prove Ridge right. If he commits to Taylor, what Brooke does with other men is none of his business. She can sleep with 50 men if she wants, he can't call it a betrayal if he isn't with her anymore.

Exactly. They've known each other over a decade...and have not shown even the slightest attraction. Finn and Taylor are more likely when Ridge inevitably drops her again.

Highly doubt it. She wasn't one bit upset with Ridge when he believed Stephanie's lies and proposed to Taylor. When the truth about Thomas/Stephanie's lie came out, she felt sympathy towards Ridge because of what his mother and son put him through. She was crying near the fountain when he showed up. She didn't blame Ridge either after the whole Shauna/Quinn fiasco. When she learnt Quinn and Shauna trapped him, she blamed the manipulators, not Ridge. Don't see why this time would be different if Thomas framed her with the voice app. Once she hears "her" voice, she will know why Ridge didn't believe her. She will direct her anger at the person who framed her. If she doesn't reunite with Ridge right away, it'll just be a matter of time. Bridge will never be done.

Exactly. And I think the reunion will happen rather sooner than later (probably during November sweeps) since they didn't even have a goodbye scene this time. Ridge just stormed off to the office and now he will run to Taylor without even letting Brooke know. They also didn't have any of those last blissful, romantic moments that usually precede the breakup of a major couple. How anyone can think that Bell would end a 35 year love story just like that, in such an anticlimactic way, is totally beyond me. Brooke will fight to prove her innocence, and when the truth comes out she will forgive Ridge just like she did all the other times when he was manipulated into leaving her, because the fact that he has been a victim too will always be more important to her than his actions after the deception.

I hope the truth comes out about the CPS call and about Sheila switching the champagne. I hope Brooke eventually knows.

I do think Brooke and Ridge will get back together sooner or later (have no idea which - sooner or later). They always do, and BB loves the couple. I think they are his endgame.

Probably so. I just wonder why he would write Ridge to be so thoroughly unlikable. There's 0 rooting value for the character you like to end up with a bullying,hypocritical, crybaby.

They have spent so much time dismantling and rewriting Ridge and Brooke's history these last 10 months that there has to be a reason for it. They've purposely cast a younger actress as Taylor, have flipped the script of the sexy Brooke and the modest Taylor and have iced Brooke out of the Forrester family. The reference to Brooke Logan on the CPS call and the shifting of Hope's loyalty to Douglas and Thomas is the clincher for me.

All to work up sympathy for Brooke. They've also turned Steffy and Taylor into even worse harridans that they were before, making them unrootworthy to all but their most diehard fans. They've regressed Thomas, making him almost as psychopathic as Sheila. There has to be a reason for that, too.

The thing is...whatever Brooke does at this point...can be argued happened only because of the emotional abuse she's suffered at the hands of the Tridge Mafia. I'd really just like her to get fed up...and want revenge. Write a tell all book about the Marone family...and give then a real scandal.

I am with you, I believe in getting even when things have gone way too far. And this has gone way too far. I want Brooke to get medieval on The Hamilton Gang, including their new member, Ridge. And, she has all the ammo she needs to bring them to their knees. Starting with, calling the cops about Taylor shooting Bill. Then going to the tabloids and letting all the dirt fly. She doesn't have to worry, the nasty Stephanie and now the Hamilton Gang have made double sure all Brooke's own private business has been told to the world. Taylor has been the worst of the lot, she made a sport out of outing Brooke publicly. Time for some major payback.

So are you saying they are winnowing Brooke out of the show? Because if it is, as you think it will be, that is what will happen. Also, no offense to anyone at all, but this talk of a younger actress being cast, means nothing at all, when the character she has been hired to play is, 5 years older than Brooke. And, since people keep saying this about a younger Taylor and how she looks like Steffy's sister and not her mother, then I will say in all candor, I think she looks a bit bedraggled and worn, for want of a better way of saying it. Not the elegant woman she was in the past. Maybe that has been purposeful for the directional change of the character you mentioned. To make her crass, no class and a bit vapid. IDK.

Anyway, if Brooke is iced out of the Forrester family, no longer the older leading lady of the show, with no child on screen except one who no longer is loyal to her, then what exactly do you think her role will be going forward? Because I think without Brooke on this show, there is no BB anymore. It may be something different, but it will no longer be BB. I could see it easily losing quite a bit of viewership if that happened. JMHO

I watched most of YR today because I was cleaning house and had it on, and I thought about Victor and NIcki and realized, that Brooke and Ridge are the Victor and NIcki of BB. So, I think that Bridge will reunite, and I think it will happen on NYE this year. Niktor married, divorced over and over, in a continuing cycle until they were much older and are now together for good. And, pretty much still front and center. I think that has always been the game plan for Bridge. Taylor was brought on in 1990 as the antagonist and interloper to the Bridge love story and I don't think that has changed at all. This is just one of the cycles of Bridge being apart. Again, JMHO

Somehow I don't think those history rewrites happened on purpose. It seems to me like most of the writers simply don't know the show's history well enough and truly think that Brooke has cheated on Ridge with family members. Just look at them forgetting about Taylor's alcoholism! And that only happened 15 years ago, much later than Brooke's relationships with Eric or Thorne.

I don’t know. Bridge looks awfully whipped tight now and as a Brooke fan I don’t know how she can take him back. I also don’t know how they can return to the Brooke is the love of Ridge’s life (he just said it a couple of weeks ago) when he will beg Taylor and he will have to disparage Brooke.
The other part is if Brooke does have an illness- how will she feel about Ridge?
She will not want him out of pity.

While I agree that you're probably right, I don't think that's acceptable from the writers, new or not. It is their job to do their research and know the back story of the characters. There should be a continuity department which is on top of these things but it seems Bold just doesn't have one and the writers are literally just winging it day to day. I don't know if they realize that in doing so not only are they making a mockery of the show, they are also insulting those viewers who have faithfully stuck with them from day 1.

Isn't Bell the head writer, so wouldn't he know the history of the show, since he wrote it? There is more to this to come. There has to be. It is not going to be suddenly Tridge is in love, and Ridge has forgotten all about Brooke. It was never that way in the past, when Brooke moved on with Thorne, Nick or Bill. And those were long drawn out falling in love SL's. But, Ridge always lurked in the background, just like Brooke was always in his head, the whole time he was ever married to Taylor. BUT, Taylor was not in his head, for the last 15 years while he was married to Brooke and Caroline. That is why I think this is going to be back to Bridge by NYE. I do think Brooke is going to be sick and that will make Ridge realize he still is in love with her, and wants to be with her through her illness to help her. And, I bet she tells him to stay with Taylor, and that will be where the Tridge angst will come from. I also do not doubt that phony Taylor will want to "help" Brooke through her crisis of health. I hope Brooke tells her to go straight to hell.

Isn't Bell the head writer, so wouldn't he know the history of the show, since he wrote it? There is more to this to come. There has to be. It is not going to be suddenly Tridge is in love, and Ridge has forgotten all about Brooke. It was never that way in the past, when Brooke moved on with Thorne, Nick or Bill. And those were long drawn out falling in love SL's. But, Ridge always lurked in the background, just like Brooke was always in his head, the whole time he was ever married to Taylor. BUT, Taylor was not in his head, for the last 15 years while he was married to Brooke and Caroline. That is why I think this is going to be back to Bridge by NYE. I do think Brooke is going to be sick and that will make Ridge realize he still is in love with her, and wants to be with her through her illness to help her. And, I bet she tells him to stay with Taylor, and that will be where the Tridge angst will come from. I also do not doubt that phony Taylor will want to "help" Brooke through her crisis of health. I hope Brooke tells her to go straight to hell.

But they have literally rewritten the past. It's like what we saw happen didn't happen at all. If they can do that then they can change the future dynamics too.

They have spent so much time dismantling and rewriting Ridge and Brooke's history these last 10 months that there has to be a reason for it.


Somehow I don't think those history rewrites happened on purpose. It seems to me like most of the writers simply don't know the show's history well enough and truly think that Brooke has cheated on Ridge with family members. Just look at them forgetting about Taylor's alcoholism! And that only happened 15 years ago, much later than Brooke's relationships with Eric or Thorne.

There had better be a payoff for Brooke fans, or I am sure many of us will be done. JMO

I agree. I never like Stephanie’s over the top bullying and the rape story was a step too far. I was so done with her. I feel that way about the Tridgesters. It’s been over the top. I’m done.

I feel that we are seeing the end of Bridge. Long term and maybe forever. Down the road, the truth will come out about the CPS phone call and Ridge will realize that Brooke didn't lie to him. However, by then, Brooke will not be the least bit interested in him. She will have moved on and will not look back.

Like she wasn’t interested anymore after Ridge didn’t return to her and baby RJ after the fake attack was revealed ?
She turned to Nick for a while but later admitted she still was hung up on Ridge
Brooke may be burnt for a while like after Ridge returned to Caroline and she turned to Eric
or she’ll decide she has no choice to move on like when Tridge was expecting and she turned to Thorne
But she’ll never give up on Ridge for good

And he will never quit her for good either. No matter how much bashing and battering the Hamilton Gang does to him. He just cannot get Brooke out of his head, for long.

How do we know Brooke didn’t do it? Every storyline, can’t be that Brooke didn’t do something, or she was manipulated. Brooke actually does lie and scheme sometimes. Something tells me this time she schemed with Donna and they’re thinking no one would ever hear the call. Btw I don’t think it would matter this time if she didn’t. Thomas could actually confess to Ridge today that he did it, which I don’t believe he did and Ridge still wouldn’t want to be with Brooke now. He’s checked out on her back when she kissed Deacon, lied about it and let Deacon sleep in her bed. Bye Bye GarBridge!

Interesting you said she allowed Deacon to sleep in her bed. She looked at him in shock when awakened from her drunken stupor which Sheila facilitated.
