I just watched and omg! Too bad I can't reach through the screen and strangle Brooke so I don't have to hear about or see her. Gah!
The scenes with Thorne and Stephanie...so much Winsor and Susan in them. And I agree, I think Susan broke down more than she'd intended. Not all of her crying/upset was acting...and none of Winsor's was.
One other complaint...why the hell did Stephanie tell Thorne news like this at work? She invited Pam to her house for lunch...she couldn't do that with her son?

A few observations..... Stephanie said today that she almost had a stroke.....showed the Brooke/Thorne flashback and then Thorne said " Thank God you didn't" ..ummmm...yes, she did!!  It would have made more sense if they said almost died. Am I missing something?? Also, this Brookefest is a bit much for loyal Stephanie fans from years back!  My 9 yr. old wants to know why Stephanie would tell Brooke before her own kids?! She thought she hated her... ;D ;D |

"My 9 yr. old wants to know why Stephanie would tell Brooke before her own kids?! She thought she hated her..."
My thoughts exactly -- the only problem is that it took a 9 year old to bring it to my attention!! Way to go and thank you!! You're absolutely right-- she told Brooke before any of her kids!?!?!?!?!? WTF (I hope the 9 year old does not see this)
Last thing, those scenes with Thorne (Winsor Harmon) -- I really think that Stephanie's emotions were more Susan's -- my heart goes out to Susan and trying to get thru her scenes. So much raw emotions.

I caught the 'almost had a stroke' and 'thank God you didn't' part. I think BabyBell has been smoking too much of the Logan Weed and has completely fried his brain cells.
And I thought the same thing about telling Brooke before her own children. My mother didn't tell anyone before us. We knew first. Then she told her remaining siblings and then her friends. Thank God Momma didn't have anyone in her life like Brooke. I'd have had to kill her for taking center place when it was Momma's time.

Maybe she told Brooke before her kids as a practice for the real hard part? Easier to tell Brooke than her kids. At least she told Pam first. Pam is the most fragile one who needs most time to accept the fact.
ALMOST had a stroke?! So the paralyzes was just in viewers heads, it didn't really happen? For god's sake..... Can't make mistakes like this. Keep on changing history all the time!!!! Why even bother remember anything we saw? Next month it didn't happen afterall.
Also noticed a mistake with Rick/Caroline. He said they are "back together". They were never a couple before. Geez.
Not sure why I even bothered wasting time on Rick/Caroline. It sure wasn't worth it. Zzzzzzz!!!!!!

What was the point of that? First Brooke, now the Logans. Who doesn't want to celebrate the last day with those who you've always thought have brought the worst heartache, misery and pain over your and your loved ones' lives?! What is happening?! It all began so great... I'm getting more and more annoyed and I mean REALLY annoyed. |

I didn't think it was all that bad. Guess I was expecting the Donna thing to be much worse so I'm not to upset by it.

Right, the scene wasn't that bad. What annoys me is the whole thing itself. Steph invites Donna, wants her to comfort Eric, and after all Donna is family bla bla bla |

Maybe being close to death has made Steph drop all the useless animosities. What's the use of carrying grudges with Donna? Steph won! She got Eric. And now her life is about to end and it seems that she's seeing things (Donna and Brooke) in a different light than she used to. Maybe she wants to go to her grave without enemies...? I agree with Kim...I didn't think the epi was so bad |

I agree with Kim...I didn't think the epi was so bad How much money is Brad paying you? ;D The voice of reason ;D But seriously....I like seeing Steph's character developing this way. I think it's believable. Don't many people on their death bed decide to forgive and forget? To let bygones be bygones? And with that said...I agree with the rest of you that there's too much focus on Brooke in this sl. But what could one expect Brooke is always the focus... |

It was as bad as I thought. Of course some of that is because JG can't act her way out of a box. Ugh. And Stephanie, dying or not, would never even joke about Donna being with Eric. Out of all the women Eric was with, when he was with Donna he hurt Stephanie the most by taking her into their home, their bed, and telling Stephanie he didn't want or need her.
And...yes, people that are dying often do go about setting things right. They don't however invite people that have caused them so much hurt to be there for a celebration of their lives. My aunt forgave the jackass that she was dating, that she loved, that cheated on her when she had cancer. But she didn't invite him into her life in the end. And we sure the heck didn't want him at the funeral, although he was there. He was quickly told to leave because even though he'd been forgiven by my aunt, his presence would upset the family (and it did upset me as I was the one that turned around and nearly ran into him because he was standing behind me at the graveside service). Donna's presence at the party will only upset Stephanie and Eric's children.
Off my rant now.

That's been 18 years ago, and I still remember the sudden rush of hurt I felt turning around and finding the man there. All of this saddeness with the sl (and now frustration) maybe I'll have to write something fun and light hearted lol |

I feel the same way. It's been 12 years since we lost Mom. And she still finds a way to guide us because of what she taught us kids growing up. Even her grandkids that were old enough to remember her after she was gone, remember things she taught them. Stephanie putting her hand on Thorne's heart...that just about did me in. Because that's where she'll always be for all of her family. |

Because that's where she'll always be for all of her family. I can relate to that,our mom still guide us kids and her grandkids old enough to remember her. Some years ago one of my nieces said - when l grow up l want to be just like grandma.She taught us that no matter what,everything will be alright .Try not to worry in advance,let´s cross that bridge when we come to it.Things we all try to live by still.And to see the small things in life and enjoy them,coz they are in the end the big ones. l got a bit off the topic here but this is what this sl did to me.Stephanie in many ways reminds me of my mother.The everlasting love for her husband and children.The importance of gathering the family and being there for everyone,with love and care and a way to tell us to move on and be happy even after she was gone. No wonder Winsor said Susan is a mother figure to him. |

Yeah, Ann...we did get off topic but not really since this SL is about something that's touched so many of us. And yeah, I can understand Winsor feeling that way about Susan.
Today's epi...I don't think any of Steffy's tears were fake. I think they were all Jackie's. Poor thing. I was teary eyed again but haven't all out cried yet. We'll see what happens with Monday's episode.

Watched the epi. Today's show got me at least partially. Or maybe I just loved seing the old, elegantly dressed Steph ;D No, joking aside, this was sad. You know, after the past couple of episodes that did nothing to me, I was already doubting myself if I were a bad person for not being sad ;D I: relieved now |
