Shiela is past her expiration date (General)

The OTHER Forrester, 3/25/2023, 1:59PM (387 days ago)

As much as I love Kimberlin Brown & Sheila Carter, I think the time has finally come (or slightly overdue) that her character is killed off once and for all. This latest stint on the show started off promising for her, but then shooting Finn & Steffy put her character over the edge again. Now, its just completely ludicrous and Un-realistic keeping her around. What she SHOULD have done, is hired some goon to go after Steffy and scare her at gunpoint or something, and then shooting her by accident. Finn should have been the one to find her in the ally. No one should have found out that Sheila was the one who hired the guy to ‘scare’ Steffy. Then, after she got shot, Sheila would’ve met up with her goon, threatened him somehow, that if he ever talked, she’d kill him. Then eventually, he’d come close to ratting her out, that Sheila actually did kill him, destroying any evidence of her involvement whatsoever, keeping her from being written into a corner again.

Anyhow, her time needs to be over. And what the show needs to do is bring in a new character. Maybe a female model, extremely gorgeous, who starts working at Forrester. She’s VERY ambitious and will do anything to further her modeling career (a cross between Niaomi Campbell & Tyra Banks type). As in, she’d sabotage other Forrester models along her way of becoming the lead model. Then Thomas, who should start being written as a better guy, flirts with her a bit, she realizes she needs to hook up with him and flirts back. Thomas thinks she’s great and all, but Hope doesn’t trust her and makes it known she doesn’t like her. Eventually, her and Thomas start a relationship, which further propels her modeling career. (She loves her career advancement more than she loves Thomas). And when things get tough for the new model (because of Hope’s distrust and learning Hope has a bit of a thing for Thomas too), she tends to scheme behind the scenes to keep Hope away from Thomas. This new model could kind of be a Sheila 2.0, a reboot if you will. They could do a fashion show and she could sabotage the lead model of the show and scheme to make her be the one walking the show stopper, while the other lead model had an accident by slipping on something before the show, breaking her leg. Of course it was the bad model who set her up for having that accident, but unbeknownst to everyone.

They could gradually have her worm her way into the Forrester family even more, maybe being on Taylor and Steffy’s good graces for a while until they start to see her for what she really is. Someone who will do ANYTHING for the spotlight!

Tell me what you guys think of this possible type of storyline. Would you give it a thumbs up or a thumbs down?

I like this Sheila story a lot more than when she wanted to get close to her son and grandson, if she's past her expiration date then so are everyone else, I hope she stays around and shoots a few more annoying characters,

I totally agree with you. I love Sheila...even when the writing is bad Kimberlin gives it her all....Sheila Carter is the last of the true soap villains and the best female soap villain of all time. I hope she stays. I think Liam, Hope, Wyatt and Steffy have expired their time. I actually stopped watching the show for years because of the focus on Hope,Liam and Steffy. i only started back watching when Sheila came back to town.

Personally, I enjoyed Deacon/Sheila/Bill story far more than dull Sinn or bully Steffy. I don’t think Sheila is going anywhere.

--
Shown on screen, Steffy blackmailed Bill. Yet, she told Ivy (and Liam too) that “blackmail is a crime”. Per Steffy’s own words, she IS a criminal cuz she has blackmailed.

Someone on this board said that Kimberlin is a contract player until December 2023.

Love the idea. Theyve already done it with Ivana years ago (Maybe I got her name wrong). Thus show needs new men vs more single women. There are too many singles ladies right now especially 2 of what Bell Jr considers leads.

Wasn't Ivana the model stabbed by the Spectra employee who tried to shoot Sally? He tried to frame Thorne for the murder. That brings me back such old memories.

I enjoy Sheila but also like your idea. We need more than 2 storylines at once the cast is so small I don’t think anyone needs to leave. The show just needs to be written like a soap. There really should be at least four stories going at once and they all shouldn’t be connected.

A thousand times No to your idea regarding Sheila.
I couldn’t even imagine soaps without her.

Sheila can stay alive and continue to wreak havoc and bring action to this show.

And hopefully the young and the restless. If Kimberlin ever returns to that show. Lauren and Sheila have unfinished business.

There are other characters on this show that been on way longer than Sheila and is still going strong Brooke, Eric who been on since season one episode 1.

Also Hope Steffy, Liam, should I go on? they have past their expiration date by now.

I can’t figure why they brought her back

I agree. It’s not KBs fault but I think the writers on YR and BB have lost all imagination about Sheila years ago. She’s not interesting to me.
