Frankly, I think everyone in this triangle is an idiot. Hope's been acting like an irrational fool for months. Bo's a moronic asshat putting Carly and, by extension, Melanie above his family. And Carly....Carly's just been stupid in general. In a way, I have to give credit to the writers for putting everyone on equal footing (even if I loathe it).

With that logic why not have Vivian just tell Carly was a wonderful little boy Lawrence used to be and all his teacher thought he was such an angel to have in class. I'm sure she will rethink stabbing him in the gut after that. :eyeroll: |

No, there are those that will always hate Hope no matter what she does or doesn't do. Just like Victor and I are not the only ones who are "disgusted with Bo's behavior and sick of looking at Carly's face" :laugh: |

Oh please, Carly isn't that terrible of a character. Lawrence is WAAAYYYYY worse than her. Your hatred of Carly just baffles me. I know it's your opinion though, don't take it personally. |

I completely agree, but I love that they're all in the wrong! :P Creates for some good drama. I'm tired of goodie two-shoes characters. |

Oh, don't get me wrong. I don't want anyone to be perfect. I like when characters have flaws. But I also like them to be rootable, which is something I'm not finding any of these three to be right now. |

Hope mentioned Patrick to Bo, when they were having an argument before she moved out of the house to live with Victor. She said something like: "Have you forgiven me for the Patrick thing? Because I don't think I've forgiven myself about that." Anyway, I love this article. Kristian gives a great insight into Hope's POV and perspective, just like Peter and Crystal have done in previously interviews for their characters. Long overdue in my opinion. She certainly knows her character pretty intimately. |

You missed the point. It's not that Carly is as bad as Lawrence. It that it's silly to expect people to overlook the bad things a person does now just because they did good things a long time ago. What baffles me is why Carly fans are so hell bent on everyone in Salem needing to worship her not for what she does or is now, but what she was or did the first time she was in town. That's what's baffling. My contempt for an over-rated, over exposed character is not a mystery at all. |

Yeah, and I can understand that. I don't mind no one being rootable right now, but I suspect it will tire quickly. I have a feeling Carly will end up being the rootable one, mainly because Bo and Hope both look like assholes. As much as Bo did a douchebaggy thing sleeping with Carly so soon, I do understand why he did it. And I feel sorry for Carly due to Lawrence and her trying to find her daughter. Having Hope as the least rootable of the trio is an unusual role for her character, which, for me, has breathed life into her. I hope they take it and run with it. Back to the rootable thing though, I'm a weird soap viewer, LOL. Like if someone goes, "Carly is such a slut!" I'll be all "I know, isn't it great?" :lol: |

Every character on this damn show is out of character!!! Since this topic is about Hope Bo Carly and Justin I'll just start with them. Hope would have never moved out like she did let alone move into Victor's house who is a freakin criminal! Bo wouldn't be keeping secrets from Hope. She'd know Carly's "secret" and would be on her side 110%. Justin....sorry Justin they really F----d you up! He just isn't the same without Adrienne. Not to mention he was never an old friend of Hope's. Hope never even knew Justin!! Nor did Bo for that matter. Carly this is one of the worst of these 4 if not THE worst. I'm on the fence though. Sure time changes people but still....who you WERE is there somewhere, when the hell are we going to see it? |

loved the article & I really liked KA point of view on the whole situation. I get that Hope had a part in the downfall of the marriage, she moved out blah blah. But really? what Bo is doing at the moment is down right cruel! How could he do that, protecting Carly&her kid is one thing, but being that mean/cruel towards Hope is pathetic. He acts as if this stuff isn't going to effect Hope, she's obviously in pain over everything. I'm glad she's finding it hard to believe, but then Bo doesn't say anything which only leads her to believe he's telling the truth. thanx for posting! :) |

Well, realistically...it's because the head writer essentially becomes the character. And with different head writers... you get my drift? |

So we've gone from "No, Carly and Bo won't be romantically involved" and "Carly is not a threat to Hope" to this new quote, "Anything that comes to an end is sad." |

Because it's weird. If a really good friend (especially one that was considered family) from someone's past comes back to town, people are usually happy to see that person. Carly hadn't even slept with Bo yet and no one knew about her stabbing Lawrence, yet as soon as she got to town, people were all suspicious of her when they had no reason to be. They knew her as a good person, so why would they suddenly think otherwise when they know nothing on the contrary? I can understand why they wouldn't be so fond of her now after she slept with Bo, but before doesn't make sense. This was a great article. Can't wait to see it all play out. |

Yeah, you really have to wonder about these quotes. Crystal said there would be no Bo romance...um, really? I'm not even sure I trust Kristian's assessment that Justin isn't a love interest. Maybe that's just wishful thinking on her part, LOL. Edited by cassie1013, Jan 22 2010, 02:13 AM.

Seriously, wouldn't you think Hope would have moved in with Maggie (since Maggie has Carly's spot open!) or Alice? Victor just seemed to be an odd choice. Or, don't Doug and Julie still have a house in Salem? Was Hope's intention to just dig barbs at Bo? They probably mentioned her reasoning, and I just forgot. |

Well, do we know what the timeline is between the interviews and publications, and how far in advance they get their scripts? They might have totally been in the dark about these romances. It seems like quite a few things like this come out from left field. |

Well technically Bo and Carly are not romantically involved right now. It was sex and not romance. Currently, I don't consider them a couple. I do wonder if the writers changed things and sped the timeline up of having Bo and Carly sleep together. Edited by dc cubs, Jan 22 2010, 10:59 AM.
