The Bold And The Beautiful (B&B) Spoilers: Steffy’s Selective Memory Is Incredible – Fans Feel The Soapy Wink

The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers and updates tease that a storyline that has Steffy Forrester Finnegan (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) reuniting is not what a segment of B&B’s fans ever wanted to see. The consensus among this group is that this on and off couple was played out.

So, rather than reuniting Wood and Clifton’s characters, a teased plot has Steffy blocking out John Finn Finnegan (Tanner Novlan) entirely. That must mean she will not recall giving birth to Hayes Forrester Finnegan (Samantha Worden and Piper Harriet) either unless he is perceived to be Liam’s son.

TPTB are aware of fan feelings, even if some feel that is not true. But the challenge any soap opera has is balancing the need to churn out compelling stories year-round while knowing that some fans will be turned on or off by whatever happens. So, sometimes creative winks at the audience appear to be presented.

The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers – Steffy Forrester Spencer In Dreamland

Steffy will be in a type of dreamland in the proposed alternative reality. Her mind was broken by Sheila Carter’s (Kimberlin Brown) horrific actions in killing Finn and attempting to silence Steffy by delivering what was a second shot at her.

Technically, those fans who are strongly opposed to Steffy and Liam reuniting will not realize their nightmare. Steffy and Liam will not reunite, except in the embattled mind of Wood’s character.

The Bold And The Beautiful Updates – How Will The Spencer’s Handle This Burden?

Steffy is in a fragile physical and mental state. So, it will not be advisable to tell her that she is not thinking clearly. Instead, a plan is projected that will encourage a play-along with Steffy’s viewpoint.

Liam is a heartfelt guy. So, he will understand why it is useful to play along with Steffy for the time being.

But Hope Spencer (Annika Noelle) will naturally be concerned that the lack of an endgame time frame will be too much of a burden for Liam to handle. Brooke Logan Forrester (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Taylor Hayes (Krista Allen) will sternly disagree about how this soapy matter is handled.

Why Wink At The Fans?

A wink at the fans is including some real-life situations in a storyline to acknowledge the TPTB are aware of what sizable portions of the audience respond to.

Soaps are arguably the most interactive medium, with fan access to the stars and off-screen decision-makers greater than ever before. The actors and all who work behind the scenes know that soap opera fans are the most passionate in the entertainment world, with the only possibly equal group being sports fans.

Creating a storyline where Steffy believes she is still married to Liam is a nod to those fans who love that couple, and it is a wink to those who do not want that coupling to reunite because it is not real.

Although, it is fair to speculate that any scenario where Steffy and Liam are together regularly, especially in this type of charged situation, could lead to an unexpected reboot. Yes, that would be a kicker twist if Finn’s death produced a realized revival of Steffy and Liam on B&B instead of a short-lived fantasy-type storyline.
