Bold and the Beautiful: Electra, Will & Dylan Chaos Demands Urgent Fix – Here’s How!

The Bold and the Beautiful has Electra Forrester (Laneya Grace) coming unhinged. And Will Spencer (Crew Morrow) has been begging her to forgive things he didn’t even do wrong. And we’ve got Melissa Dylan (Sydney Bullock) in there, too, being twisted from a hard worker into some gold digging temptress out of nowhere.

Fans are really bothered by what Brad Bell’s doing and how he’s twisting these characters making at least two of them very unlikable.

Electra Doesnt Sit Well with Bold and the Beautiful Fans

So, we’re seeing how Brad Bell is trying to force Electra on the fans as the new top female Forrester. And yes, it’s understandable to want to set up the younger generation to draw in new viewers and keep the storylines going, you know, hopefully for decades. But Brad Bell is failing because Electra does not resonate with fans.

When we first met her, when Ivy Forrester (Ashleigh Brewer) brought her niece around, she seemed nice enough. And then there was the Remy Pryce (Christian Weissmann) stuff where Electra was the actual victim and we saw Remy terrorizing Electra and then Will writing to her rescue. All of that was super sweet, very soapy.

And then they brought back R.J. Forrester (Brayan Nicoletti). That’s when things took a turn for the worse with these characters. And Electra turned into a whiny, entitled, and utterly unsympathetic little brat. She was hateful to Dylan pretty much from the moment Will offered her his spare garage room. Electra has made unreasonable demands and threats. She’s been nothing short of a bully to Dylan while pretending that she is the victim. And Electra’s been pretty awful to Will.

And I think part of the reason that Brad Bell is writing these unlikable Nepo babies is because Brad Bell is a Nepo baby himself. He grew up in a wealth bubble. And he’s only had one job, writing at Bold his whole entire life. And he got that job from his parents. And if I’m being brutally honest, Bill Bell, his dad, was a legendary writer. And it feels like Brad Bell just is out of touch. He doesn’t know the mind of his fans. Maybe because of his own very privileged background, so he doesn’t really cheer for underdogs like Dylan.

The Bold and the Beautiful: Fixing the Character Mess

Think about how he brought in Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada). She was introduced as a nice girl with a bad mom, Poppy Nozawa (Romy Park). And then they twisted Luna and made her a monster. And now he’s twisting Dylan into something she’s not. And fans think that Brad Bell’s maligning Dylan to try and prop up Electra and make her seem more sympathetic.

But unless they fix the character, fans are never going to embrace Electra. However, I think that Brad Bell can fix the dumpster fire that is Electra, Will, and Dylan. So, let’s talk about how that would happen. First of all, if Brad Bell is intent on making Will and Electra the next big super couple like Hope Logan (Annika Noelle) and Liam Spencer (Scott Clifton) or Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) and Finn Finnegan (Tanner Buchanan) or Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye), then things definitely need to change.

And I think the starting point to making Will and Electra endgame is to go forward with this split that they’re having right now. Have Will move on. Have Electra move on for now. Go ahead and have R.J. romance Electra so that she gets an idea of what life is like with him versus Will.

I don’t think R.J. will make her happy, but then Electra can see what she doesn’t want.  Will has always been very sweet and because of that she steamrolls him and she bullies him. R.J. on the other hand is a lot pushier than Will and I think he will be controlling with Electra like the other Forrester men are.

Bold and the Beautiful:

You know, being with R.J. while Eric Forrester (John McCook) and Ridge pat her head and tell her good girl for choosing her cousin will probably push Electra to the ends of her patience at some point and then she snaps because she’s an adult and she needs to make her own choices.

And that means pushing back on R.J., Eric, and Ridge and telling them she’ll date who she wants. I think Electra, if she’s with R.J. will miss Will’s sweetness. So, definitely go ahead, let R.J. have Electra for now, otherwise he’ll never stop trying to interfere with them.

Next, they should go ahead and put Will with Dylan. We know Brad is putting them in bed together according to official Bold and the Beautiful spoilers coming up in the next couple of weeks. So, give Will and Dylan their chance since they’ve had this chemistry that’s been sizzling for quite a while.

And that way, you know, she can finally see that she and Will are not meant to be together. Dylan can get disillusioned and she finds out it’s not all as cracked up to be with Will. Plus, Katie Logan (Heather Tom) will never accept Dylan because she’s decided that she’s targeting Will. And I think Katie is being overly nasty to Dylan because Katie’s convinced she’s up to no good, taunting her, calling her names.

Like, that’s an insult. I mentioned before maybe she’s being so hateful to her because Dylan may remind Katie of Brooke who stole Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) from her more than once because Brooke was gold digging back in the day with both Ridge and Eric with a shovel in each hand.

Brooke’s Gold-Digging Twist on Bold

Brooke dumped her nice middle class fiancé to grab for that fancier Forrester lifestyle. Bottom line though, Will isn’t going to get over Electra. But I think Will’s going to give it a try with Dylan. And along the way, she may finally accept, okay, we’re not meant to be. Will’s never going to love me like he loved Electra. And then Dylan can let him go.

Despite the gold digging twist, I don’t see her and Will together long term or her really trying to force it. And basically, they’re not going to be together long term because Brad Bell doesn’t want it. It’s very clear what he wants, Will and Electra. But other things need to happen first before they are a viable couple that fans can root for.

The Path to Will and Electra Endgame on B&B

So, the next thing I think B&B needs to do is invent a crisis for Will to bring Electra running back to him. Just as she’s seeing that R.J. is no substitute for Will and Electra sees she can never love R.J. we need to see Electra doing the work to be with Will for a change. Her making the effort instead of acting like a princess that everything needs to come and fall in her lap.

We need to see Electra show some accountability for her actions for repeatedly dumping Will over, you know, not much of anything and abusing his affection for her. And Electra needs to own that she’s wrong for accusing Will of lying because he didn’t spill Spencer company secrets and basically for Electra being an all-around brat. She stomps her feet when things don’t go her way.

Crisis Ahead on Bold and Beautiful?

Maybe you noticed Katie mentioned that she’s worried about Will on his motorcycle and Eric mentioned Will’s bike this week as well. That could be foreshadowing that he might crash his bike. If you recall, Steffy had a motorcycle wreck that brought her to Finn, her soulmate. So, Will might have a crash.

You know, nothing life-ending, but something short-term scary. So, it would terrify Electra into realizing what she has thrown away because Will is a wonderful guy. And I could see Electra walking out on R.J. and running to Will’s side with sincere apologies and Electra promising to do better, to stop being so selfish, and to be the kind of woman that he deserves.

RJ & Dylan Should be Endgame on B&B

The last thing they need to do to fix this mess with Will, Dylan, and Electra is to give Dylan a shot with Will and R.J. to have a shot with Electra, as I said before. And then it doesn’t work out. And that leaves R.J. and Dylan single and heartbroken. And so this is the last phase of what I see as the operation fix this mess thing. So to be honest, R.J. and Dylan, they do have good chemistry.

Plus R.J. like his father Ridge and grandfather Eric probably wouldn’t mind a gold digger in his life. They can afford it. They both married Logan ladies that have cashed in. I mean, there’s been a lot of gold diggers in the Forrester’s past. Brooke and Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) and Donna Logan (Jennifer Gareis) and other women who have cashed in. So, what’s one more gold digger with Dylan?

I could see R.J. and Dylan commiserating over them losing Electra and Will after they, you know, shoot their shot and it doesn’t work. And then R.J. and Dylan realize that they were placeholders for Electra and Will who are meant to be together. And then R.J. and Dylan turn to each other and they figure out they’re happier together than with the person that they thought they actually wanted. I think that all of that plan could fix this mess.
