What do you think? Do you still like The Bold and the Beautiful TV series? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for additional seasons?
Please don’t cancel B&B; I look forward to watching it and talk with my friends about what is happening. I have watched it forever.
PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I have been a fan since day one. I did not like the transgender stint, it is in our faces all the time. I never did like Quinn or Wyatt, I think the show went down when they came on. I love Liam, yes clean up Ridge, Show Pam & Charlie more, they are a cute everyday couple. The baby thing again with Rick, & Mya TOO MUCH. I dont think the actors are going from bed to bed, need more love. I really think Eric needs to see just what… Read more »
Y’all where is the class? y’all are falling behind on class, because sex has ratings???????? You make me so sick!!!!!! What happened to the beauty of love in a relationship. If I wanted to what PORN at lunch I would turn on the Demand on cable? Loyal fan but not anymore guys. I miss the class of The Foresters!!!!!!!
i love it quinn is my favorite right now i vote to keep it going
Love it love it love it… please renew…
Boring, boring, boring! Same old, same old. Characters bouncing from bed to bed, marriage to marriage. I quit watching:(
Like it but same story over and over just like asking nicole to have another baby just as her and Zende are back together. Same ole same ole!!
Bold and beautiful consistently keeps making the same mistake. Having Brooke too front and center and the Forrester family constantly at odds with Stephanie and Eric’s children always on the losing side of things. The show is too flip flopped. Brooke and Bill are a terrible match up. Steffy and Liam should have had a fairy tale wedding and a happy exciting life together with a beautiful baby on the way by now. Instead you give us Quinn and Eric and Wyatt and Steffy dragging along. The newer characters have old transparent storylines like Ivy coming back and Wyatt siding… Read more »
You have cut too many intersting characters – half Forrester, all the Marones, not to mention Taylor and Hope.
And you think that involving completely new charcters, will replace their value? I don’t think anyone is replaceable.
And the plots? Just when I thought something was going to happen between Quinn and Liam (as weird as it sounds), suddenly Quinn in love with ERIC?
Come on! Is that the best you can do!?
I am disappointed…
Keep this show on the air please the acting and characters are excellent…Maybe it could b reworked as a weekly hour nighttime soap like Dallas or Knotts Landing perhaps? I would be devistated if this show is cancelled!
I LOVE THE SHOW! I record it and “Young and the Restless” every day to watch while preparing dinner. The current coupling of Eric and Quinn is awesome! I’d love to see them stay together for a while!
I like the show. I’m not crazy about the story line right now & I’m not talking about the transgender issue. Ridge marrying Caroline after she slept with his son and became pregnant is a bit much. But I still watch the show. Let’s get some better story lines and keep it going. It’s not reality tv. I don’t want to see Soaps disappear completely. I enjoy them.
l have been wachting bold and beautiful for so many years , l do hope that it will not be cancel, but it is reapithing so many times with brooke and quinn thesame story why do you not change or make and other story about brook and bill and quinn and thoses 2 brothers watt liam it will be verry6more exithing no is getting so dul, this is my opinion
Please don’t cancel the bold! I dvr every episode! Still waiting for Liam and Hope to get back together! Love the show and have since the beginning!!
The Bold and the Beautiful has been my ‘most watched’ show since its inception. It is the only show I record for later viewing. It actually is the only CBS show I am currently watching on a regular basis. I would love to see it renewed for many more seasons to come!
