The Unending fixation with Brooke Logan

Even when showing classic episodes we are subjected to the glorification of Brooke. I am SICK of it. I turned off today's episode 5 minutes after it started. That's it.

The Logans are the worst.

Imo that’s a shame because you missed a good episode.

The episode wasn’t glorifying Brooke, the marriage was doomed anyway. It was just a treat for the Beric fans, as they actually did have a fan base back when they first started. It was nice to see Brooke have a man devoted only to her for a while.

The episode is even amusing when you think of the show today. Donna wishing for a man like Eric and Brooke saying, “you can’t have him, he’s taken”, lol well yes Donna you would be able to have him!

Brooke and Eric in the balloon and I’m thinking and many years later Brooke will be in a balloon with one of the guest’s sons who we didn’t even know existed (or did he?) at the time.

It was also amusing seeing adult Felicia knowing someday she’d be rivals with Bridget, who wasn’t even born yet, and in that story they are close in age.

You’re welcome. 👍I love seeing vintage Brooke because she was just stunning back then, still is to me but wow, back in the 80s and 90s she looked like a 50s movie queen or something.

I do agree they should show more long ago characters. I think the problem is they’re showing too many recent episodes. I didn’t watch much during the 90s decade and would love to see more of those episodes, see Grant, James, Taylor, Connor, Dylan and Jessica, Sally Spectra, Clarke Garrison.

You and I agree on the people we would love to see more of in the classic episodes. From our lips to the PTB's ears! 😁😂😂😁 I would also add Sheila!

[ILoveBizzie]

Yes! Sheila and Lauren would be great!

I agree with everything u said. It just shows how sickening this Brooke lovefest is. I'm just annoyed they showed this wedding with Eric and Brooke instead of one with Eric and Stephanie. She was his true love.

[tftaylor]

Why was Stephanie even at the wedding? I would not have gone.

Brooke is an original character. She was there since day one and many many storylines on this show centered her.
They can’t show classic episodes without skipping hers.

I enjoyed seeing her weddings. Brooke is still the most beautiful bride I’ve ever seen on this show.

[PennyB]

I've always been a Brooke fan and will continue to be. I don't like a lot of her choices...but she's still my favorite character!

[Soapsbarbie]

Agreed! Brooke is a iconic legendary soapy character, I also enjoyed all her weddings.

She's been the star of this show for a long time. It's hard to show episode without her in it.

[mahsa]

Well, not showing an episode with Brooke in it is not the issue as I understand it, it's not showing a bunch of episodes FOCUSED on Brooke that's the issue...

To each his own for sure.I love those older episodes kind of hard not to have Brooke in them when she was a big part of the show.

I get that Brooke has been on the bold and the beautiful since the beginning. But I feel like only one Brooke wedding should have been shown. The rest of the weddings should of also had Thorne and Darla, Bridget and Deacon, Eric and Sheila, Amber and Rick

[ILoveBizzie]

The only other character with two weddings this week was Liam. Speaks volumes about how popular SC/Liam is. He’s already on Brooke’s level!

Maybe the focus was on the characters who are still actually on the show.
Even thought I personally didn't want to see her, I was surprised the Taylor/Ridge wedding wasn't shown.
I would love to have seen the 'Man and horse' episode again.

[CouchCruisin']

You are probably right about that, but not Katie/Bill's.

[Emerald Greens]

Maybe because they don’t want to show how good Tridge was.

[CouchCruisin']

We don't all agree on that, but you liked them and that is wonderful.

Agree, agree, agree. Co-signing three times!

As much as I loved the Brooke/Ridge first wedding, my focus, just like the Katie/Bill wedding was on Stephanie. LOL
Seeing her just made me miss her even more.
I recorded though, so I can go back to watch at any time.

And Liam is the same.

He has been on at least one episode each of these “classic” eps weeks. 🥰

Also Liam was the only other character in which two of his weddings were featured.

The price of focusing on so few characters the last several years.

[River Board Regular Find all posts View Profile Close River]

If you'll notice, the theme was actually weddings shot on location. They did not have any ceremonies which took place on sets.

And yes, it makes more sense to focus on characters who are still on the show. Moreover, Brooke and Eric are the only remaining original characters still played by the original actors, and they have two children together. Brooke is the show's original ingenue, from the moment she escaped from the would-be rapist in the opening post-credits scene of the very first episode.

But why let that get in the way of rewriting the show's history and ranting about a recent Logan "invasion", when the Logans - especially Brooke - were a huge part of its early years and in fact, more of its original cast were Logan family members than Forresters or Spencers!

[ILoveBizzie]

Very good points! Yep, the Logans were written as connected to the Forresters via Beth and Eric’s love in college, and there were many Logan characters (brother, three sisters, mother, grandmother).

Brooke is a star of the show . has been since day 1

[gaby1985]

Heck no.Never was

[CouchCruisin']

That fact can be denied, but not negated.

[Anotherwoman Board Regular Find all posts View Profile Close Anotherwoman]

I have had enough of Sheila to last a lifetime. We need some new blood. Bring back Thorne for Brooke. A man for Steffy of her own. Some intrigue like Rick and Thorne plan to take over Forrester together. Bring back the Avants and give Mrs Avant a job at FC. No one is interested in working. They have Steffy folding clothes and Ridge chasing women. Good heavens get rid of Flo.
