Bold & Beautiful’s Kimberlin Brown Out as Sheila: ‘It’s a Tough Place for Me to Be In’

Aaand… “Cut!” In the February 26 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy Forrester fatally stabbed monster-in-law Sheila Carter, thus bringing to an end Kimberlin Brown’s latest return as the soap-hopping murderess.
“It’s a tough place for me to be in right now; I’m not going to lie about this,” the actress tells TV Insider. But “I guess if anyone were going to take Sheila down, I’m happy it’s Steffy.” In fairness, the ex-con was only at her nemesis’ house to leave her pushing up daisies.
Not that that makes Brown’s exit any easier for her to take. “I just wish that no one was taking Sheila down,” she says. The show “is my happy place where I have been so blessed to be for over 35 years. But I’ve had a good run at it, so I’m one of the lucky ones.”
Brown originated the infamous role on sister soap The Young and the Restless before the character’s many crimes — everything from man-stealing to baby-snatching — prompted her to fake her death and cross over to The Bold and the Beautiful. Following another reign of terror on that show — Sheila shot Brooke, Taylor and Stephanie and threatened to kill lil’ Thomas — she started bouncing between the two daytime dramas every few years.
Here and there, Sheila has supposedly met her maker. (Once, she was even said to have been devoured by a bear.) But the soaps have always found a way for her to do to death what she does to everyone else: cheat. In between stints on Young & Restless and Bold & Beautiful, Brown appeared on All My Children, General Hospital, Port Charles and One Life to Live.
Do you think Sheila is really, most sincerely dead this time? Or is the show just faking us out again? Hit the comments.
Was time!! I even yelled out loud STEFFY DO IT AGAIN JUST TO MAKE SURE!!!!!
The characters don’t exist in real life. The body and the identity of the characters dont exist in real life. They dont have bodies or human identity or family or relationships connection with “movie families” or connection with family they have in the movie. They are all chukcy characters. They are blind deaf and can’t speak. They don’t have any human identity or relationship with their family. Their actions and their conversations exist just in the movie. Their actions or their relationshiops or their communications. Everyone of them are not real people are just imaginary beef. It’s just one its the killer who brings them alive inside his movie. The electricity and the internet you see in the movie are not real the earth doesn’t have electricity or cellular the internet. Internet and electricity is just the movie inside their head.
If this is the best AI can do, we humans are safe for now.
Why didn’t you just say so. 🤓
ok weirdo. Kimberlin Brown played her character so well, that hundreds hate her character forever. THAT’S good acting!
The point of your post is what?
HOW RUDE!! It should have been big lip that died.
Wow talking about rude . . .
Yes!
I agree with you!
Kimberlin Brown is one of the best actresses out there! Sheila can’t be dead! Finn will bring her back to life, but that most likely won’t happen.
Bummer. Will really miss her.
Please Bring Sheila back as otherwise the show is s snorefest .
It could be sugar, and not actually Sheila that got stabbed… That way it gets Sheila off the show a little bit, and eventually Sheila will be found, and will find out that. It was really sugar that Steffi killed. This can’t be the end of Sheila, Kimberly, Brown, does an excellent job playing this role. We definitely hate to see her go, but pray she’s coming back!
Who is “Sugar”?
I totally forgot about Sugar. I think you might be on to something…hopefully the writers agree.
I hope she stays, it’s a love hate with her.
I don’t like her going after Steffy, but it makes good TV to me.
I hope Finn, don’t fall for Hope. She’s the one I DO NOT like!!! She knew Thomas was crazy about her, and wanted to be with her. She knew he would want to marry her, she should have never got involved with him. All she thought about was how HE, made HER feel, how about how SHE, made HIM, feel…. Didn’t give ANY thought about what that would do to him, by getting involved, and not really wanting him. PLEASE Finn, DO NOT FALL!!! She wants to blame Steffy…. I don’t like Hope!!!! Bring Shelia BACK, keep Finn with Steffy, and let Hope and her mother go somewhere…. Paris!!! Bring back Qinn and let her and Shelia have a storyline!!!!
I hope Shiela is not dead. She brings life to this soap. Otherwise this show is pretty boring with everything else.
Sheila is overplayed and Bell doesn’t know who to write for her. He tried to turn her into a romantic heroine, complete with a love interest. Sheila is best in short term arcs otherwise her and any villain who remains long term becomes “Cartoonish”
The writing sucks. They had so much potential with the Sheila/Finn connection. Let alone that Sheila has other children out there. In this latest stint they focused too much on her ill-fated love affair with Deacon and that FBI set up with Bill that went nowhere.
It’s a shame for the character but again looking at the writing and storylines given to her, it‘s better Kimberlin Brown stays far, far away from that show.
Since they don’t seem to know what to do with Deacon either, my guess would be that Sean Kanan is next.
Plus they had to dumb everyone down or throw them under the bus for her, and that’s not what should happen. If a character can’t be written without throwing others under the bus/dumbing them down, then that character is worthless
If in fact Sheila is dead, I wish Lauren from Y&R would have been the one to take her down. She did SO much to poor Lauren for decades that it would have been nice to see her going out in a blaze with a room full of people (victims) that Sheila tortured. With that said, it’s time for her to go, because some of the ways they had her escape death were just too stupid to be believed. They can always bleach her hair down the road and bring her back as Sheila’s good twin sister (same soup warmed over from many times gone by). Now will Steffy go to jail for manslaughter and will she get back with Liam while Hope takes up with Finn? Ugh!
Why will Steffy go to jail? She came to her house where she wasn’t supposed to be. Turn lights off and tried to attack her. And with the history, I doubt it.
I DO hope Steffy goes to prison! Stabbing Sheila was unjustified!! Steffy is a vindictive b$&ch.
Lol stabbing Sheila was unjustified? REALLY??? I’ll assume you either missed the part where Sheila was outside in the bushes and said “Steffy, tonight you DIE!!!!!”, and then proceeded to unlawfully enter her house. Either that, or you didn’t comprehend that Sheila was actually there to kill Steffy. Either way, I hope when someone illegally enters your house in complete dark and approaches you that you keep that same energy toward yourself if you have to defend yourself. Tell the cops you deserve to go to jail because you had to kill someone who was trespassing in your house and coming at you. Darwinism at its best.
Well, Steffy had NO right to enter Sheila’s apartment to go and cause trouble!! And Steffy wanted Sheila to die and she killed Sheila!! All of Steffy’s fingerprints are on the murder weapon (knife).
Are you okay? Seriously, talk to someone.
How did Sheila unlock the sliding door? Steffy had locked the door.
I thought about that too so I re-watched that episode and she did lock it at first but she got scared of the noises and accidentally unlocked it later.
Frankie ,
Steffy is the best female character on B and B.
You either don’t know what Sheila did to Steffy and her husband Finn or you’re watching your own version of the show….
“Sheila most certainly deserved what Steffy did and it was self defense!”
It’s just too bad that Lauren Fenmore and Sheila’s other victims didn’t get to witness Sheila’s life ending.
Lauren or Phyllis should have taken her out. Steffy needs Taylor that’s why I don’t understand why she was fired.
KA was fired because Taylor became too popular and on her first year as Taylor KA got an Emmy nomination. Someone got jealous. Only on B&B if you do your job too well do you get fired or side lined.
Stabbing an intruder in your own home who had a restraining order and whom actress (try reading the article above) stated was there to kill Steffy isn’t vindictive. The only b–ch it psycho Shelia.
Sheila wasn’t armed. She lunged at Steffey because she had a knife.
No I think they will say it’s a dream
Ugh is right. I do not like Liam back with Steffy.
She got to be dead this time. If so Steffy can say she was protecting herself, but she told people she want her dead. Well we will see how this play out. Stay tube.
Let’s hope that Sheila Carter is dead! Good riddance- good actress but enough of her being resurrected every time like she’s immortal
FINALLY! 3 long years overdue! She should have been short term to begin with, and kept getting away with too much crap.
After shooting Steffy and Finn she should have been done. Brad Bell needs to learn villains are best short term
I hope she will resurface on Y&R. *That’s* where she’s needed, not B&B. I’ve been eagerly awaiting a showdown between Sheila and Lauren since 2006! I also want them to retcon Pheila, Daisy, Ryder, and Sarah.
YR won’t acknowlege that she’s alive on BOLD(in LA). Nikki knows she is, but it’s never been acknowledged on YR that she does know
Nikki doesn’t know anything. And things change.
Is Nikki sober?
I don’t she seems to have more lives than a cat good luck in what ever you do Ms Brown you are a great actress 😊
Kimberlin Brown is the best actress in daytime TV and the writers wasted her talent with stupid, poorly written storylines! I’m done with this crappy show.
Sheila is too much a part of this soap! Without her it would lose the drama and intrigue her character brings to the show. I’m betting she is going to escape her demise yet, again. 😎
She was barely on for months doing nothing lol. And when she was on, they were trying to make her a romantic heroine by pairing her up with Deacon. Let’s face it, Sheila needs a good long rest
I need a rest from Sheila.
I may sound crazy for saying this but, if she’s gone, I’m going to miss her character. She played her part real well. Just like Mr Foster lived once more again, hopefully Sheila will too.
Who is Biglip? Who is Mr Foster? Do you mean Snapper Foster (played by Hasselhoff)?
I pray she is dead. Enough is enough!!!
I wish Sheila would have killed steffy. I love to hate Sheila. No love, just hate for steffy, always have always will
LMAO no one cares, this is about Sheila, but do go on
Steffy and Shiela don’t exist they are not real people they are dummies. They are kidnapped by 911 inside the home of 911 in electrocution. 911 is playing with their heads, have installed Playstation planet in their head. I hope they discover the home of the psycho killer which being kidnapped and doesn’t know their true identity
I love to hate the owner of the home where Shiela lives who hold kidnapped shiela and have invented her fake identity and playing with her mind cat and mouse video game with her mind without her knowledge that she doesn’t exist.
Steffy defended herself by ending Sheila’s violent, worthless life.
May all of Sheila’s victims celebrate….
Happy dancing 💃!
Nope Sheila just can’t die she brings all the excitement to the show!!!
Say it ain’t so!!
I have loved watching the Sheila Monster since she returned to B&B a few years ago, and I will be sad if Kimberly is really leaving this show…With the understanding that these soap operas are fiction, I love rooting for some of the villains and villainesses because they make things exciting!! I want the writing to be over the top because this stuff is escapist fun for me, and the soapier the better…I also watch Y&R, and when they brought in Colleen to play crazy psycho Aunt Jordan, I went wild watching this new storyline!! Well I remember when Sheila “killed” Finn…So I hope somehow Sheila will cheat death again and return one day to cause more soapy drama for the Forresters, Logans, and Spencers…After all, she still has nine toes left…:)
Glad she is dead and gone. Could never stand her. Yea for Steffy.
They will bring Sheila back as her evil twin.
Bring her back as her evil daughter. Remember she did say she has other children.
Sheila needs to go enough is enough. Think bold & beautiful needs writer .Just like all soaps they die they don’t.
I hope she is”for real” dead! That story line was getting real old and tired,
Sugar is dead! Sheila is very much alive!
Hoping that character Sheila is gone! It lasted way too long! Hoping B&B can finally come to better storytelling!!! Was really ready to stop watching!!
I don’t she seems to have more lives than a cat good luck in what ever you do Ms Brown you are a great actress 😊
Maybe Finn will whisk her off to hospital (private hospital) ha ha like Li did with Finn …bring her back to life …. And THIS is the last straw for Steffy —-driving her right into Liam’s arms …..freeing up Finn’s arms for Hope …after she leaves Thomas …. Igniting Thomas ‘RATH
Probably, but the only one that wants that storyline is Bell.
The B &B should hire Martha.
Yeah, it’s time for Sheila to go, Finn needs a reality check!
I’m thinking she is dead this time, but we will see her again as a different character. Deacon was saying that Shelia kept disappearing & stated she was reconnecting with someone from her past, a twin sister maybe? If that is the case, I feel the next character she plays if any will be the total opposite of her evil character, just my thoughts. Will Steffy go to jail, probably, but her families money & influence will get her out in no time. Long enough for her & Finn to break up & Hope will be right there for him as Liam will most definitely inject himself into Steffy’s world again
Time will tell
Kimberlin Brown is a FABULOUS actress. Her role as Sheila Carter is one of the BEST villains ever! Been watching her since her 1st appearance on Y&R. I do believe she is dead this time. Unless Sheila’s spirit haunts Steffy so bad it causes her to go off the deep end and back to drug use. Aside from that…we will miss Sheila and the sheer lunacy she has brought to Bold and Y&R
Probably not dead, but I wouldn’t mind her being off the show.
