Every B&B fan has an origin story. Maybe it was your mom watching it in the living room. Maybe you found a clip on YouTube and fell down a rabbit hole. Maybe you've literally never missed an episode since 1987. Tell us: what got you hooked, and which character made you stay? We'll start: it's hard to argue against Stephanie Forrester as the show's gravitational center for the first two decades. But we want to hear yours.

Started watching B&B with my grandmother and mother. I was probably 8 when I first started watching B&B. Began watching full time during the "Who shot Grant" storyline. Another reason why I started watching B&B so early was Sheila. Every time she was on scene, I knew I was up for a good time!
