Not watching next week: don’t recognize show (General)

Ilovebizzie, Baltimore, MD, USA, 8/26/2023, 5:07PM (256 days ago)

Even though I’m interested in Eric, and Sinn, I’m not going to watch because based on spoilers and everything going on, seems more of the same.

I’m realizing I don’t recognize half the cast anymore.

I don’t recognize a Hope that would fall for Thomas. I know there’s not many options but…Thomas doesn’t make sense.

I don’t recognize a Liam that just threw away any attempt to reconcile with Hope. Instead he’s basically throwing a woman he says he cares about and by extension their daughter, to the man he says he thinks is a danger, to pursue his married ex that he left because she had slept with his own father; and he says he doesn’t know why he left.

I don’t recognize a Finn who is hugging Sheila and “doesn’t know why” (aka plot point!).

I don’t recognize a Steffy who wouldn’t answer her husband’s texts or let him see their son and would hide the truth from him that Liam is pursuing her just as he fears.

The show focusing on this quad +1 is very overplayed and boring.

Imo the show needs to add more men and women in this age group. Or at least utilize Wyatt if they won’t cast a new man.

Thomas should have another option besides Hope and she should have another option besides him and Liam.

Liam should have another option besides Steffy and Hope.

Finn should have another option besides Steffy.

And maybe Steffy needs another option besides Liam and Finn.

I’m still rooting for Hope and Finn’s happiness and I still want Sinn as endgame but, until I hear better news about this show, I’ll be tuning out again and just keeping up via the internet.

I completely agree with your post. You said it all. I am now rooting for Sinn, and really will be beyond disgusted and angry if this show even attempts to do Thope. I am all in on watching Eric's SL and Bridge. That is it for me.

I am happy Eric is getting a storyline and that they are going to do something with RJ.

I agree with almost all of this. I am sure I will watch but I am very frustrated with the show.

I will say Liam has been very consistent about it being over if a line was crossed with Thomas. I think it is refreshing he is sticking to it. It's pretty clear Hope never really forgave him for sleeping with Steffy the last time. It's ok to have deal breakers. And down the line he will forgive her but I applaud him for knowing his limitations. The Steffy stuff is another topic entirely.
As for Finn him feeling a connection to his bio mom despite everything she has done is not that crazy. The way it was revealed was weird and clearly a plot point but it being a thing is pretty normal. And what answer do you want him to give? He is trying to win Steffy back even if he knows why it's best he keep it to himself. I think after the drowning it was pretty clear how he felt but that didn’t go over very well. I would stick with I don’t know tool

Yep, you are so right. Not much of this show makes sense but the one about Liam is truly mind boggling. Liam is doing and saying some really strange and weird things. I'm not sure who is more mentally ill, Liam or Sheila!

Hope has been unrecognizable since early April where that first fantasy came out of nowhere! I still remember right after it, she said "what's happening to me?":frown NOTHING made sense since then imo.

--
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.

That's completely true. And since then, she has done thing and said things to make me certainly not know who she is anymore than she claims she does. She's said two or three times that she can't recognize herself. At least they are making an effort there to show some confusion. With these other instances? IDK.

Like Steffy, sitting around scared like a bambi in the headlights. It baffles me.

Sheila is sex-crazed, not acceptance-crazed. Makes no sense.

well i am enjoying the show, i do think we need a pause from the quad plus one, but i'm glad liam is free of hope (for now) and enjoy seeing him at spencer with wyatt, adding bill to some of those scenes would be even better, also looking forward to eric's story, hopefully it will be a good one

I’ve been enjoying it too, tbh, more character based than plot driven lately. The dialog has gotten repetitive between Finn and Steffy, Liam and Wyatt though, and too many flashbacks, but really none of those things are anything new. Interested to see how they’re going to write Steffy out and I hope she’ll keep her leave as short as usual.
