I Am A Swede

In memory of the late Richard Chamberlain.... two of the most epic miniseries from the 1980s

It also worked with Stephanie because deep down Brooke wanted Stephanie's approval. She cared about her and on some level respected her. She has none of those feelings towards Steffy, so her disapproval means absolutely nothing to Brooke.

Hopefully it's her choice, and she's using the free time to do other more satisfying things with her life.

I respectfully disagree about that. Ronn Moss, for all his faults and his lack of acting skills, is Ridge Forrester. He embodied the role in a way that Thorsten Kaye can't as far as I'm concerned. Thorsten's lack of real chemistry with KKL, who usually can create chemistry with any inanimate object otherwise (case in point: Ronn Moss ) doesn't exactly help, and I doubt that he would have had the same connection to Susan Flannery that RM had. No one is denying that TK is the far superior actor, but RM was simply better at being Ridge Forrester.

I could live with that if he had more than a snowball's chance in hell of being successful. But we all know that's never going to happen. The Dingles are untouchable and will always come out on top, so this is just another story where a character is thrown under the bus to make them look good. 🤮

I quite like the early stages of the Joe/Christine romance back in the old days. But the way Christine is being written early on makes the reason for the rapid destruction of their marriage seem very strange. I wonder if something happened backstage that impacted the story.

I think my top 5 favourites are (in no particular order): Sweden, Luxembourg, France, Denmark and Cyprus. I wish that Cyprus had performed in their own language, then that would have been my outright favourite. Rounding out my top 10 would be (again, no particular order): Spain, Greece, Italy, Serbia and Iceland.
