Eric (McCook) gives Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) a rundown of what Brooke (Lang) has been up to since he’s been gone, but is careful not to mention Bill Spencer (Don Diamont). In an epic and romantic reunion, Brooke imagines seeing Ridge at the water staircase only to realize that it isn't a dream and he’s standing before her holding a single rose. The episode originally aired Dec. 19, 2013.
Not even the Queen could make me sit through a week of the Best of Brooke. I love how they keep touting her as an "original cast member" in all the descriptions of the episodes. Yeah, we get it. She's one of the two that Brad Bell didn't manage to drive away with his craptastic Logan-centered writing. And seriously, I wouldn't even call those episodes the Best of Brooke anyway.
Hope this little Hooray for Brooke week tanks in the ratings.
While I definitely dont share your hatred of brooke...I definitely agree that these shows aren't the best of Brooke...the first episode is sweet and shows the connection between her and eric that would last for decades...but the Brooke's bedroom crap was just a story to get under Taylord skin. Good for business yes...but that was all about getting ridge from Taylor.
If they wanted to show a storyline about a strong Brooke, one that was not all about getting a man from someone else they should have made this bLf week. Excellent storyline.
I'll check out the first 2 (the real classics) and the third one (special episode with the Core Four). I still want my Stephanie Week! Notwithstanding the theme of this coming week, I will say that the selection of episodes has gotten better. Most of the episodes are from the Flannery/Moss era.
That being said, I won't hold my breath for a Taylor Week knowing these people.
I agree LisaM1983! I thought for sure we would see an episode highlighting Brooke's Belief! Those were the days that Brooke actually worked instead of complaining all day long!
Absolutely. Brooke's greatest triumph was BeLieF, and her gaining control of FC from the Forresters who wanted to trick her out of what was rightfully hers.
A few classics in the lot, but the lack of Brooke taking over FC with BeLieF is unforgivable.
I agree, that was Brooke at her best. It's the most iconic moment in the shows history as that action set the foundation of the show for years to come after that.
Yes, I agree with that one too RedheadTeacher! That is definitely one of the most memorable sls for me as sick as it was! I guess " Brooke Week" isn't going to show anything bad that she did? How about the infamous wall bang episode with Hope's boyfriend Oliver?
All these are episodes which cast her in a sympathetic light. Friday's episode, for instance, is a joke because Ridge would soon find out about Brooke sleeping with her sister's husband. He wanted nothing to do with her after that.
