It was a girly name, I think we can probably find it a few pages back, because I think someone posted the name she planned on naming her baby when he was born. Haven or Jude or Haven Jude, or something like that.

Has Thorne ever declared his love for Darla or is he just interested in the Borrester Heir? Has Queen Stephanie ever welcomed Darla into the Borrester brood?

As for Schae's own pregnancy:


Also:

Hey, has anyone on this infernal, stupid show given Darla(she who is giving birth to the 1st---and so far ONLY--- grandchild of Eric) a baby shower yet? Or is it all still all about Brooke/Ridge? This sudden attack of Ridge not being able to raise another man's child is just plain idiotic. He willingly co-parented Rick with Brooke and Eric for years. Everyone thought that Bridget was his for years. And what the hell about Hope? He didn't have a problem with the idea of raising her with Brooke.

S-T-U-P-I-D storyline, Bells. Stupid.

Well, you know, they don't know her as well as they know Brooke's gaping cooter. Only one Forrester has yet to enter it, not like Brooke where all the men there have and now Ridge's other half-brother has as well.

So...Thorne & Darla had a girl...named her Alexandria (named after Macy Alexander)? Eh. Kind of a mouthful to say. But they could always shorten it to Alex I suppse.

SHOOT. I forgot that the soaps were on CBS today, and I remembered just as ATWT was starting. I missed the birth. How was it????

That's sweet that they named her Alexandria (we knew a Macy reference was coming somehow), and I hope the Forresters ACKNOWLEDGE that Alex is the FIRST blood Forrester heir, but in Eric antiquated, narrow minded, blockhead, she won't count to take over the company someday because she doesn't have a penis. Ass.

Ridge fell back on quoting Barney the Dinosaur to keep Brooke today.

Ridge: I love you, you love me.

And I think I saw a tear in BOTH of Brooke's eyes today, yay!

But don't you know, she's a girl, so obviously doesn't count as a Forrester heir *rme*

I'm sure they'll find other excuses.

His days of watching Barney & Friends with all the kids he has helped raise over the years has finally come in handy! LOL

UPN is rerunning the Jake 2.0 episode with NewThomas next Wednesday (the 7th) if anyone is interested in checking out Eyebrow Boy prior to his debut (which I believe is next Friday, the 9th).

With the holidays I have missed alot of this show. What is going on with Bridget, Deacon and Ozzie? Is she saying she's going to marry both of them?

They both proposed, but she accepted Oscar's proposal first, and then Deacon tried and she had to tell him that she's marrying Oscar Mush Mouth.

The more I watch Bridget and Mush Mouth together, the more weird it seems. They went on maybe two dates, got to second base at the most, and now he's proposed to her and is marking his territory by telling Deacon that Bridget "just feels sorry for you because her father shot you," and is picking out her damned clothes for her? He also has a job simply so he can keep an eye on her? Creepy. Run Bridget. Do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars.

Speaking of shooting, why has Eric ONCE AGAIN gotten away with that?

NuThomas? Has Thomas finlly succumbed to the dreaded SORAS?

Thomas AND the creepy Village of the Damned twins. All three are being newbied up starting next week. Hopefully, the twins will be played by a pair of kids that aren't straight out of Children of the Corn this time.

Word, chezhdchick.

I can't stand Oscar. But I find it heee-larious that Bridgie's version of rebellion is marrying guys before she has sex with them and their nearest male relations. Are you listening Brooke? Are YA LISTENING?

Deacon is H-O-T and loves her. She should go with him.

Deacon/Bridget/Ozzie is just a crazy-ass triangle in that it happened too fast and lacks any believability.

By the way, Bridget's hair looked out-of-control and awful today.

I'm still in disbelief and denial that the latest Ridge and Brooke being "parted forever" storyline is supposed to work-up any outrage from us. For the love of God woman, you got your man, you've got three kids, just have an abortion and get on with your life!

Stephanie was pretty cool today.

I dunno, I felt that B & B was totally spinning out-of-control today.

And where was the Celine-esque chest-pounding from Ridge?

And... is Deacon's being crippled and healed the fastest and cheapest plot device ever or what?

Spoilers:

Massimo puts a destructive plan in motion.
Stephanie offers Deacon some comfort.
Ridge gets a new houseguest.
Eric and Jackie have an unexpected encounter.
Bridget threatens to end her engagement to Oscar.

Some things I thought were interesting from the interview with Joseph Marcel.

Massimo and I have a long history together, we were in the Merchant Navy together and. I really am his assistant rather than [the butler], but nobody knows except the audience and so I'm very, I was going to say sneaky, let's say I'm very observant for Massimo.

SC_Monique: So even Jackie and Ridge and Nick don't know the history and the connection between the two of them.

Joseph Marcell: None of them know. The only person who will get an inkling as what their relationship is, is Oscar. We need Oscar for something. He tells Oscar this is my personal assistant.

SC_Monique: So Massimo and Hudson are trying to use Oscar to do something to Eric Forrester, to get him out of the picture?

Joseph Marcell: Yes, this is where it becomes personal. Eric Forrester is in our sights, yes.

And I still want Thomas to fall in love with the butler's daughter/niece.

Regarding this spoiler:
Stephanie offers Deacon some comfort.

Ew. Ew. And EW.

More spoilers:

Brooke's gone! Whose fault is it? Don't miss it when Nick and Ridge come face to face!
Why does Massimo threaten Eric? And what does Eric do about it?
Has Deacon lost his inspiration? What happens when he tries to walk?
Bridget has a romantic surprise for Oscar!

Where is Rick? Ya'd think he might have an interest in some of the current SLs.

If Nick and Ridge want someone to blame in the "you drove Brooke away," wars, maybe they should blame their mother's. Particularly Jackie. That woman's baby fever and freakish obsession with her son seems to me to be the main person in this saga that made Brooke uncomfortable with the situation. Hell, I was uncomfortable WATCHING her quiz Brooke about her marital sexual problems.

Not that this is news, but Ridge is the assiest ass who ever assed. Each day he gets worse and dumber. I can't believe how he's acting as though Nick is a bad person for refusing to give up all rights to his own child -- I would love to have seen Ridge's reaction if Nick had suggested that Brooke give up HER rights to the baby and let Nick raise it with some other woman, yet Ridge seems to think Nick should do the same thing. And that whole tired bit about how it being all Nick's fault that he and Brooke slept together. Gack. Why do I watch this show again?

WORD. But then again, isn't this the exact same thing Brooke and her minions demanded Deacon do with his parental rights to Hope? Heck, it's the same thing that's happening on GH with Zander's rights to his and Liz' child. She and her husband, Ric (who I still call "HEY WHIPPLE," just to be a snot, since he's being played by Rick Hearst and I can't stand the character he's playing), are trying to get him to drop all rights, even offering a disgusting "generous stipend" if Zander walks away.

Why is it all or nothing on these stupid shows? Why do none of these shows (except for ATWT) believe in visitation or sharing custody of kids? At least on ATWT, Hal and Em share custody of Daniel with Margo and Tom, and Carly and Jack share custody of Parker with Hal and Emily. AND....what a CONCEPT...it's not a big deal, in fact it's a great plot device to explain why the kid isn't around. "Oh, he's with his father today," as opposed to Brooke, who has sole custody of Hope, but who we assume is having a nanny raise her since we never see the kid while her self-absorbed mother takes raod trips to find new and exciting places to bang Ridge in.

Ronn Moss is a terrible actor, but that isn't news to anyone here. His wrath today at Nick was hysterical; that method-acting is too much for Ronn to handle I think.

LouisVuittonRULZ, the only "method" RM can remotely be familiar with is the type of birth control Ridge and Brooke must be using because that woman hasn't seen a birth control pill, diaphragm or condom in the last 15 years.

But total word on your post and chezhdchick's. Baby battles are becoming ubiquitous on soaps. It's horrible and trivializes the trauma custody fights and forced abandonment have on kids growing up without one of their parents. I'm totally sick of it, not to mention bored.

And why oh why wasn't Stephanie and Eric over at Darla's bedside last week impatiently awaiting the arrival of the TRUE FORRESTER HEIR? Asshats.

[sarcasm]Well, it was only a girl, born to the Number Two son. Why should they care about that?[/sarcasm] (This sarcasm is directed at the show, not at you, starrynight5.)

SUPERWORD. I would expect that kind of thing from Peeping Tom Eric, but not from Stephanie. I know she worships Ridge, but still, she'd be there, no matter HOW much drama was going on with The Gaping Cooter.

"Congratulations, Nick, you RUINED my life... now... get the HELLL out of here. Damn you! Damn you, Paaayne!"

B & B is in a serious stall.

After some fairly interesting months and stories it's now collapsed into this crap.

Of course, they'll never explain why Brooke didn't just morning-after-it or have an abortion even though we're supposed to understand her Pro-Life stance as explained during stories past.

I can't believe how bad this has gotten.

SUPERSIZED McWORD to both of you. I was hitting the FF button pretty heavy during yesterday's snooze fest. Did Steph and Eric even MENTION their new grandchild? Has ANYONE mentioned her arrival since the New Year's Day show?

Feh. Why bother. It's only a girl, and it's only Thorne's child. Who gives a crap? The non-Forrester male spawn of Mullet Man and the Gaping Cooter is much more important to obsess about.

I see Eric is reving up his hard on for Jackie. I guess seeing him put the moves on her the day of her wedding wasn't disgusting enough. Eric skeeves me more than anyone else on the show. He should be rotting in jail (for any number of reasons)with a toothless, inbred cell mate named Bubba.

I hope in five years time, they SORAS the hell out of Alexandria, have her take down the Gaping Cooter and all her minions, successfully orchestrate a hostile takeover of both Forrester Creations and Marone Industries, kick all of these asshats out of their current jobs (except Nik) and crown Darla Queen of the World.



Word, chezhdchick. God that man is creepy.

Wordy McWord to you! This makes me so irate; why the fuck can't anyone pay attention to someone besides Brooke, Ridge, Nick, etc.? Ugh.

I can't believe Stephanie and Eric couldn't even put in an appearance for Alexandria's entrance into the world on New Year's Day. Alexandria better avenge her quasi aunt's death (that being if Macy never returns) and rip Brooke's little shop of designs apart someday.

I can't understand why Schae and Winsor would even stay on this show, since their characters get treated so poorly. I am no huge fan of Thorne's but he should at least get some respect from his parents. The only semi-family member that was there was Sally, and she isn't even blood related! WTF?

Well, I'm sure the reason Eric and Stephanie weren't there is because Thorne and Darla aren't married, and you know how traditional and moral all the Forresters are.

Ah. I crack myself up.

I actually thought the Marone lasagna dinner scene was very nice in a cornbally sort of way. Still, I had no idea that Ozzy was a Marone, when the hell did that happen?

I really could not care less if Deacon gets Bridget, because I always thought he and Amber belonged together. Let Ozzy keep Princeess Bridget. I'm so sick of men fighting over her. But you can't accuse the girl of being whorish, so you gotta give her points for that.

Nope, you sure can't. She isn't slutty like her mother is, and men fight over her just as much. I get sick of men fighting over both mother and daughter though.

I was so disgusted by Ozzie's fawning over PERFECT and lasagna, the lasagna dinner itself, and Deacon whining about Bridget that I can't even comment on the show today.

Though... once again Susan Flannery is so commanding and slick she can make any scene a profound moment.

It's testament to her (And Darlene Connelly's) power as an actress that a chunky and older actress is able to remain on the show and make it her own.

But the show itself, it's all just too pitiful for words!

Yeah, but Deacon looks DAMNED FINE when he's playing pathetic. I wanted to go in my TV and let him rest his weepy head on MY breastesses for comfort. Damn Stephanie. Her boobs have all the luck.

This show has always been crappy though sometimes entertaining, but the level of obsession that the Forresters seem to have for Brooke and Ridge is just grossing me out. Watching Stephanie decide, yet again, that she can like and root for Brooke only because she is doing exactly what she wants her to do is icky. And I love Stephanie. And pretty much can't stand Brooke. But I've had it. How many times can I watch the same thing happen? What is wrong with these people that they are so obsessed with this couple of 50 year olds? And why would these two grownups let their entire family run their lives? It's just too weird. Meanwhile the other son has a baby and no one cares. I'm telling you, it's getting to weird for me. I may have to check out permanently.

Amberosia -- Mass refers to Ozzy as his cousin's son. I can't remember, but I don't think his last name is Marone, or if his last name has even been mentioned.

There is a rumor that Darla and Thorne will get married, and also that Thorne and Ridge will clash over the fact that the Tharla baby is the first actual Forrester heir.. So we'll see what happens there.

Word to all of you about Eric. He has always given me the creeps, even back when he was married to Brooke.

The CBS site has his last name listed as Marone I believe, so I have just assumed that's what it was. Although I do think you're right, HockeyMom, that no one has actually SAID his last name IS in fact Marone....

Hm...Massimo's cousin's son? I thought that he was his brother's son.

So, if Oscar is the son of Massimo's cousin, that means Ozzy is NOT Massimo's nephew. They are cousins, as well, then. I always thought they said that Oz was Mass' nephew.

Oh, and because it cannot be said enough, ERIC IS SCUM. He's basically admitted to Sally that he's after someone else's wife. Isn't this what Brooke did when she openly admitted and flaunted in Taylor's face that she was going to take Ridge from her? I always thought Eric was a dirty, older version of Brooke.

Well, no one can be as bad as Brooke was in that plotline. For that to happen, Eric would have to flaunt his plans to Massimo, and Massimo would have to be incapable of having his sorry, saggy ass shot.

Me too. Eric is the male version of Brooke, and this is why they deserve each other and belong together for eternity in hell.

I almost puked when Ridge said that Eric respects the sanctity of marriage. Since when? When he cheated on Stephanie with numerous women, including Brooke?

Total word to the above posts as I jump aboard the CreepyAss!Eric bandwagon.

Remember when he freaked out seeing Ridge and Bridget kiss and started wailing about how morally wrong it was? I was like, seriously, look in the damn mirror. Pot, kettle, black.

And BTW, it was gross and all, but still. He shouldn't talk, schtupping his daughter-in-law like that, as well as anything else that moved and had a vagina.

I nearly lost it when Oscar lectured Thorne and Eric on how they raise the bar in everything that they do.

Truthfully, they tend to lower the bar to the lowest and sleaziest of levels when it comes to their relationships.

Also, why did they name the baby Alexandria rather then Alexandra?

Alexandria is a place, Alexandra is a person.

Oh wow, you mean Thorne's child ACTUALLY got mentioned??? I forgot to turn off the digital cable box and by mistake ended up taping NBC yesterday rather than CBS.

Has ANYONE mentioned that she's actually the first Forrester heir? Has ANYONE congratulated Thorne or at least acted happy about the baby, or is it ALL ABOUT RIDGE, as usual.

chezhdchick, I'll give ya three guesses. And I don't think you'll need two of them.

Do NOT tell me Stephanie and SORASed Thomas just did that lame-ass brotha handshake. Please. No.

Bridget + Oscar = zero chemistry. And stop petting her face, dolt. She still doesn't want to have sex with you.
