[QUOTE="Monzo, post: 382363, member: 19949"] Y&R is the only reason some people in the US still watch B&B. This theory has been around for many years, but the proof came when B&B became the first soap to return after Covid and was on air for a few weeks without the support of Y&R. To date, these weeks are B&B's all-time low in viewers. Only when Y&R returned with new episodes did B&B's ratings slowly rise again. I wonder if As the World Turns would still be on the air today if it had remained Y&R's lead-out and if B&B would have survived in Capitol's time slot. But as far as the current action is concerned, the "visit" in the latest episode was a bit of a shock for me. If it were Eric's swan song I could bear everything better, but I just want the plot to be over. The interruptions to RJ's lovelife while Eric dies (or not) could have been avoided. Otherwise B&B just tells one story, but right now, when the focus should be on Eric, you constantly see RJ, who was forgotten for years. And as for the one who is no longer part of the show: It could have worked if they had given her a storyline without Ridge, maybe with Deacon, I would even have found Bill interesting as love interest.
