Co-sign, juniorz, on everything you said. CO. SIGN.

See, I thought the office-ripping was over the top...so I couldn't buy what should have been a remarkable expression of Thorne's resentment at always being the less favored son.

But that is what the script/direction called for. And to justify in terms of character, who could really blame Thorne for throwing stuff around? I mean, the guy has gotten two of his wives stolen from him, has always been the shipping bitch, and never got the same amount of respect that Ridge got. This is a guy who shot his brother after finding out his own flesh and blood slept with the woman he was going to marry. And you thought that Thorne throwing some chairs, breaking some windows, and clearing a desk with his arms was OTT?

And the substance abuse? Blink and you missed it.

LOL. No one's saying the story shouldn't have lasted longer. But for that short amount of time, Thorne did have a substance abuse problem. Lasted for about two weeks onscreen(God knows how long offscreen) before Brad moved onto his project: Donna the new Forrester Mattress.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but...whoever said that Clayton Norcross was the best Thorne needs to get out more. I'm used to bad soap actors, but his acting was actually embarrassing. Trachta and Harmon are total opposites, but both are good in their own interpretations of Thorne.

Umm...I said he was my favorite. Are you some soap actor who worked with him?? If you thought Trachta was good you need to get out more too.

Tptb struck GOLD with Thorne and Brooke. Windsor and Katherine oozed chemistry and I never thought they would be able to sell it but they did. I was on the edge of my seat back then with them trying to keep it from everyone, especially Stephanie since they repeated ad nauseam she wouldn't be able to handle it. And they gave us the infamous scene with Stephanie going after Brooke with a knife in Big Bear

Too bad they went back to the dull as dirt Bridge pairing since it was stellar acting all around.

My thoughts exactly. windsor and KKL as Thorne and Brooke made me go Ridge who?? They oozed chemistry.
