LOL! I wasn't that convinced.

In fact, I wasn't grossed out. But I do feel like he could have introduced Amber's twin without the whole porn movie angle. And why does it HAVE to be a twin? Could it be a cousin with a prothestic nose?

Your statement reminds me of when Jeanne Cooper was interviewed by Mike Logan, complaining in 1995/1996 about bottom baring and hot sex scenes. She said the reason why the ratings went down was not because of the OJ trial, but because, "The show was trying to do porno."

I feel like soaps can do a lot more to be contemporary besides looking to sex to do it. Bold and the Beautiful should experiment with more of that film look that Guiding Light is going for. And if not with the grainy 16 MM washdown, at least with the wide angle camera shots. You'd assume a show about trendy people would have stuff like that.

But once again, I'll let you know when it's safe to tape again, CC.
