đĄ OUTRAGE ERUPTS! ‘Bold & Beautiful’ Fans SLAM Brad Bell for âRuining the Showâ â Viewers Demand Change NOW! đ„đș

A recent storyline, complete with a special promotion, has gotten fans of The Bold and the Beautiful talking. Some fans have become so upset with the story that theyâve been calling out head writer Brad Bell himself. On the other hand, some fans have come to the soapâs defense.
A Recent Story On The Bold and the Beautiful Comes With A Special Promotion
The Bold and the Beautiful originally premiered back in 1987, serving as a sister series to The Young and the Restless. Both classic soaps were co-created by William J. Bell and Lee Phillip Bell, whose son, Bradley âBradâ Bell, currently serves as The Bold and the Beautifulâs head writer and executive producer.
Brad has had quite the history with the soap. In years past, he has served as a supervising producer, an associate producer, and a breakdown/script writer. Beforehand, he also worked as an occasional script writer on The Young and the Restless.

However, one recent storyline on the soap has gotten fans asking about where the money is going on the soap. This comes out as various characters, Ridge Forrester, Eric Forrester, Brooke Logan, and Nick Marone, are set to visit Europe for a fashion show.
This means that the soap is actually filming on location in Italy. In fact, this is the sixth time the soap has filmed in the country, where Bold and the Beautiful is known to have a strong fan base.
That said, not all fans are excited about the trip. On social media, one fan dubbed it a âwaste of money.â They continued, âJust think of the sets they could have built on what they spent filming in Italy for a story no fan wants to even see. I used to like Brooke, now I just want to puke when I see her pining away for the caveman.â
âItâs ridiculous what the writers and Bell have done to these characters. I watched about 10 minutes of this stupid story being rehashed for the umpteenth time. Iâm going to DVR these episodes so I can fast forward through the Italy garbage. Itâs a shame.â
Some Fans Donât Mind The Trip To Italy, But Still Donât Like The Storylines
That said, other fans were more supportive of the idea. In particular, some compared the situation to the sets used on sister-series The Young and the Restless. With Aristotle Dumasâ recent reveal taking place at a part in France, one fan noted, âIâm just glad to see some beautiful scenery. The Y&R had that stupid fake greenery maze.â
Other fans felt that it was practical to film on location. As these fans pointed out, these tend to do well with fans and help pay homage to the showâs foreign fans.
On the other hand, some agree with the original posterâs sentiment, feeling the soap is wasting resources on certain aspects of the show, at the expense of others. Some even took to questioning Brad Bell himself.
A few even shared mixed feelings, noting they didnât care for the storylines, but didnât mind the recent change in scenery. Some comments included:
- âThey have more regular viewers in Italy than they do [in] the States. Makes sense to film on location there occasionally.â
- âThey normally get good ratings with the remotes.â
- âItâs not that I donât like them filming in Italy. Itâs the stupid, ridiculous rehash of a rehash storyline that I just canât stomach.â
- âIâm here for the Italian scenery while trying to ignore recycled romance storylines!â
- âIts a waste of money and a waste of screen time. Who wants another Brooke and Ridge and their destiny snoozefest? Not the fans. Only Brad Bell. How does he still have a job?â
- âWell it is the Brooke and Ridge show. If Bold and the Beautiful, Brad Bell, and Casey are gonna waste money, theyâre gonna do it on their played out characters.â
