Jack Wagner

Bridget threw the bouquet and Jackie caught it as Nick looked on. Boy he must have loved that, especially as he watched Owen in a "moment" with his mother. Also, did anyone catch the look on Katie's face?

Nick (Jack Wagner) confronts Owen (Brandon Beemer) on his relationship with Jackie (Lesley-Anne Down) and warns him to stay away from the wedding.

The Bold and the Beautiful is really running with The Price Is Right cross-promotion. Here's Drew Carey, offering the third-time bride and groom some advice. I just wish he'd told Bridget how much hotter Nick was with her mother. Right now, apart from Jackie and Owen, all the couples on this show are lame.

Nick’s proposal to Bridget was preceded by this less-than-romantic declaration: “I have been a beast. I don’t know if I could sink any lower than I already have.” Well, he said it. She accepted gratefully, thrilled to re-marry a man who was obsessed with her mother. Romance isn’t dead.

Owen followed suit and gave Jackie an engagement ring. When Nicky boy found out about it he blew a gasket, going so far as to push some papers off his desk and let his hair get all messy. He carried on his tiresome rant about Owen using Jackie. READ MORE

Well it looks like the Chancellor is out of the bag on The Young and the Restless! In the Comings and Goings section of her New York Daily News column this week, Carolyn Hinsey lists Thom Bierdz as "Phillip Chancellor 3rd". As you'll recall, it was previously reported that Hinsey ran into Auntie Maria at some swanky, New York shindig and found out about a "big return". Do you think Auntie Ri Ri blabbed, since by now we all know the big return wasn't Michael Damian showing up to sing "Rock On" in the lobby of Fenmores? 

I guess Hinsey's scoop means a certain Aussie is as phony as those faux furs Lynn Marie Latham wanted poor Nikki Newman to disgrace herself by wearing in public, on the streets of Genoa City proper. Didn't anyone tell LML once a stripper graduates to the real stuff, she can't go back? God made everything for a purpose, and critters were made so that the wealthy can look chic for the Winter!  READ MORE

As much as it pains me to type it – last week I was reminded why I used to want to slap Taylor upside the head. She and Ridge put Brooke on the spot about Rick, Taylor spouting, “your son is sick, Brooke. Wake up! He is psychologically damaged.” While this may be true, how can she be so sanctimonious? Taylor’s own son, Thomas, is undergoing psychiatric help for his demented arson and car bombing attacks. I mean, really, take a look in the mirror, girlfriend. Taylor’s own son is nuttier than a fruitcake, and if it hadn’t been for Rick’s invention last year she’d still be drowning her sorrows in LA’s finest door-to-door delivery vodka.

During Taylor’s lunch date with “world-renowned” quack James Warwick, ex-husband Ridge and fire-starter Thomas, it looked like someone might take some responsibility for their own actions. Alas, it wasn’t to be:

Taylor: "Sweetheart, you were defending my honor. I was the one who was all caught up in these feelings, and I -"
Thomas: "- you know, let's not blame ourselves. Let's blame Rick."

Yeah, great idea Thomas. Let’s blame Rick. In amongst the insanity that was Taylor/Ridge vs. Rick, Brooke at least came back with a zinger when Taylor accused Rick of having an Oedipus Complex:

Brooke: "When did you come up with this diagnosis? Before or after you slept with my son?" READ MORE

Hell hath no fury like Stephanie Forrester and Kevin's finally caught.

Is Sean Kanan heading back to the glitz and glamour *snickers* of the fashion industry on The Bold and the Beautiful? On Soap Opera Digest's Twitter page (gotta love that service), they are saying that the word is Kanan may be on his way back to la la land as bad boy Deacon Sharpe. Could Jackie (Lesley- Anne Down) finally have something to do besides become a bargain basement version of Stephanie (Susan Flannery) with her manipulation in Nick's (Jack Wagner) life? Stay tuned!

Michael Ausiello at Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Heather Locklear is as good as confirmed for the upcoming Melrose Place remake. And, let's face it, what would Melrose be without Amanda Woodward?

On a related note, Jack Wagner's contract with The Bold and the Beautiful is said to be up for renewal in April, and though he is widely thought to be signing to B&B again, there's always the possibility that he'll jump ship and join real life partner Heather on Melrose. His character, Dr. Peter Burns, ended up marrying Amanda Woodward, so it would make sense.
