Members Cheap21 Posted August 12, 2012 Members Share Posted August 12, 2012 Thanks! I wouldnt have Bill and Brooke in an affair but there would definetly be a strong attraction which both characters would acknowledge and at most kiss. Steffy would find out about the kiss and run to tell Ridge about it, confirming his suspicions and assuming the worst. He goes to confront Bill and thats when they fight and he dies. The death would be ruled as an accident and no one would know that they were fighting over Brooke but her and she'd keep that a secret. Since they reconciled, Stephanie would be by her side and sympathetic following Ridge's death but will feel betrayed and outraged when she learns that Ridge died fighting over her indiscretion. Meanwhile Steffy realizes that it was her telling Ridge about the kiss which led to him fighting and ultimately dying and the guilt would eat her alive as she blames herself. She decides to channel her own self-guilt into rage, which is directed at Brooke whom she decides to blame for it all. In her mind, she justifies not blaming Bill bc Brooke took advantage of his vulnerability as he was grieving over Katie. A full blown triangle will emerge between the three and Stephanie would be torn. She is initially trying her best to make Brooke and Bill pay for Ridge's death and she doesnt want them to have a happy ending over his grave but then she learns that Steffy has fallen back in love with Bill and she doesnt want her to end up with him either. Does she continue to try and end Bill and Brooke, knowing that frees him up for Steffy, or does she now push them together so that she can save her granddaughter from being with a man she hates? Too bad the writing at B&B isnt complex bc it would complicate matters even more if they brought Ridge's shares into this by having Brooke inherit everything. Together with Bill, they'd own 32.5% which is nearly a third and the other Forresters, namely Thorne, Thomas and Eric would Brooke for Ridge's shares. Bill would however coach her and help her manage her newfound power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JellicleCat Posted August 12, 2012 Members Share Posted August 12, 2012 Why would Brooke need help with that? She ran FC for years on her own! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted August 12, 2012 Members Share Posted August 12, 2012 she hasnt done diddly squat for years. She wouldnt be running FC as she doesnt have that much power but with the shares she has some rights and say in the company. Brooke would be feeling guilty and remorseful and in a weakened position due to not only Katie's but now Ridge's death. She'd be in a position to be taken advantage of and manipulated by the Forresters bc she does have a conscience. Bill doesnt quite have the inhibition and he'd ignite a fire in her to help her take a hold of the shares and not merely be some silent partner whom they try to dismiss. He'd basically coach her into not letting them use Ridge's death to guilt her into signing away those shares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted August 12, 2012 Members Share Posted August 12, 2012 I mean the ones bashing him when they don't know the actual reason's he left. I read on twitter, and yes it could be untrue, that he's leaving cause his wife was in a bad car accident and he's taking care of her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JellicleCat Posted August 12, 2012 Members Share Posted August 12, 2012 Ah, ok. I see your point, and you're right, Brooke would be vulnerable in that scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ladyceejay Posted August 12, 2012 Members Share Posted August 12, 2012 EB is actually a very good actor.....RM is not. Although, I can not imagine B&B without him, either, in spite of the fact that B&B is far from must see tv for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted August 12, 2012 Members Share Posted August 12, 2012 If he really leaves, I will miss Ron Moss. Terrible actor, but it is hard to imagine anyone else as Ridge or the show without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted August 12, 2012 Members Share Posted August 12, 2012 +1 It's surprising because it took this long for him to leave...lol..not that he is leaving. I agree that he needs to be killed off and somehow have Brooke involved with it...thus leaving Stephanie and Taylor at war with Brooke and Eric defending her skanky whore ass and Eric and Stephanie feuding over it as well.

Members Antoyne Posted August 12, 2012 Members Share Posted August 12, 2012 I think Moss is a hilarious "actor" but just like Drake's character John on DAYS, I can't imagine another actor in the role at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KSlater Posted August 13, 2012 Members Share Posted August 13, 2012 Does anyone know if B&B has ever before undergone budget cuts that resulted in cast salary reductions? I don't watch the show, but I don't remember ever reading anything in years past about them going through the same kind of budget turmoil as the other soaps.

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted August 13, 2012 Members Share Posted August 13, 2012 Did anyone see that little drama going on w/KKL & HT today on Twitter...LOL. HT had to tell KKL not to get caught up in chaos (AKA fan created drama). Hope KKL understands and isn't really mad at HT next week on set!

Members Cheap21 Posted August 13, 2012 Members Share Posted August 13, 2012 what makes you think HT will be invited back to set next week? Im guessing Taylor wont be onscreen for a few weeks....LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted August 13, 2012 Members Share Posted August 13, 2012 That Twitter drama was so stupid. I didn't see anything that Hunter Tylo did to make KKL bring her into at all. If only there were a behind the scenes camera or scoop at those Bell soaps. I could only imagine what goes on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Quent Posted August 13, 2012 Members Share Posted August 13, 2012 I like the idea of Drake Hogestyn taking over the role of Ridge Forrester. DH is the only actor who could do justice to the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted August 13, 2012 Members Share Posted August 13, 2012 Bc Brad Bell would take rotate people on and off contract. Just recently he got rid of Jack Wagner and Lesley Anne Downes which I'm sure was bc of budget cuts. I don't even think anyone on the show gets paid that much outside of the core 4 and MAYBE Hunter Tylo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
