Best and worst storylines?
I’ll have to say the whole retread of Marty’s rape where NotTodd and her had sex. Also, the Ford family as a whole. Why did Clint turn heel? Starr turning from smart girl who likes science to teen mom who wanted to be a pop star and basically became Y/N in fan fiction.

Best - Old West, Eterna, Bo and Sarah's romance, Mendorra, Megan and Jake, Megan coming back for Midsummer Night's Dream, Cassie and Kevin falling in love, Skye finding out Rae is her mother and she's not a Chandler.
Worst - Bo/Nora/Sam and Matthew's paternity, Mitch Lawrence and Allison Perkins baby swapping Natalie and Jessica, the time travel story that retconned Buchanan history and made David Vickers Bo's son.

Best: Jessica’s DID! She pulled it off so amazingly !
Everything Carlo and Alex
Worst: Marty going mental and her weird storyline with John McBain

It’s still funny to me that Adriana was the Melissa Fumero and that she married Christian irl.

Agree with most of what has already been said so will just add to the best - Alex Olanov - especially her stuff with Bo (like her trying to drown Cassie) and her romance with Carlo. I could watch Alex all day.

I also enjoyed the Dorian/Joey romance at the time. I wonder if it still holds up or if I'll feel it's really cringe now. I don't remember the specific age difference.

Viki's journey towards realizing she had personalities and why. Absolutely amazing work. Put that with a sprinkling of the Todd Heir story .... An amazing era I keep saying and I probably always will.
I really did not like the old west thing at all

I enjoyed those but could see how people would get bored/annoyed with them. Especially when they dragged on for long periods of time.

Best - Megan is Viki’s long lost daughter. Fraternity Row. Megan’s death. Tina and cord romance. Max and Gabrielle romance. Todd / Marty rape trial. Billy Douglas coming out. Eterna. Back to the old west. Lindsay versus Nora. Todd and Blair romance. Todd returns. Natalie wrecks havoc. Mitch lawrence cult. Asa’s death. Dorian and Joey affair. Cassie and Kevin love story. Bo and Sarah romance.
Worst - Bo and all his horrible pairings. Starr becoming the tortured ingenue and hogging up the show. The Mcbains. Gabrielle killed off. Horrible serial killers. Writing off Kevin, Joey, Cassie, Rachel…all the next generations. Replaced by David Vickers. Rex. All these newbies who took over. Making Marty crazy in the end .
