B&B episodes now streaming on Amazon Prime

Fans of The Bold and the Beautiful now have the opportunity to watch old episodes of B&B exclusively on Amazon Prime.

One of the biggest frustrations soap opera fans express is that once an episode airs, it's typically gone forever. Unless, of course, you save episodes on your DVR or have a stack of old VHS tapes stashed away in your attic or basement. Since soap operas air every weekday, there is rarely any opportunity to air repeat episodes. And ever since SOAPnet went off the air, there isn't really a home for classic soap opera viewing.

The Bold and the Beautiful is taking the first step toward changing that. Past episodes of the CBS soap are now available for streaming exclusively on Amazon Prime. Before you get too excited, the episodes don't go back to the first episode. However, you can turn the clock back three years to the show's 7000th episode, which aired on January 23, 2015, through episode 7100, which aired on June 16, 2015.

It isn't clear if the show will be adding additional episodes to the Amazon Prime offering, but presumably if the interest in the first batch of 100 episodes is great enough, more episodes could be added.
