Rick and Steffy? Seriously?
This just ratchets up the ick factor for me. I was icked out when Bridget had the thing for Ridge. I was icked out when Rick and Phoebe hooked up and I’m icked out now.Apparently we are phasing out Marcus and sticking to storylines involving only the pearly white Caucasian Forrester family.
I don’t like it.
There are a couple of reasons why I don’t like it.
- Steffy had this supposedly fantastic love with Marcus. There were poolside cabana scenes, scenes of them working together at Forrester and those of them attending family celebrations together. It was interracial, mixed up the color palette and incorporated a new character. It wasn’t the best storyline but it wasn’t icky.
- By writing Rick the way they are, the writers are creating a man ho who is just like his mother, loving his way through entire families of women. Think about it. Brooke has been with Eric and his sons as well as one of those sons’ half brother by Massimo Marone. She’s also been with her son-in-law, Deacon. Rick has been (not in the biblical sense) with Phoebe, then biblically with Taylor and soon with Steffy. Am I the only one picking up on any of this?
