Could all of the shake-ups lead to a renewed focus on B&B's grown-and-sexy set again? A couple of items in the latest Soap Opera Digest offer a smidge of hope — and no I don't mean Logan! First off, buried in the article about Ronn Moss' exit, there's a mention of "speculation" about formerDays of Our Lives star Peter Reckell as a potential Ridge recast. It certainly wouldn't be the first time B&B snatched up an actor on the heels of a DAYS exit. Do the names Joe Mascolo and Brandon Beemer bell a ring, er ring a bell? Next up is an item is the mag's popular "Stuff We Know (And Shouldn't Tell You)" section stating the word is out about Sean Kanan once again reprising the role of Deacon Sharpe. Can you say hell-to-the-yes?! Would you be able to accept Reckell as a Ridge recast? Let us know how you feel in the comments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bluejeanbaby3 Posted August 27, 2012 Members Share Posted August 27, 2012 I don't think a Ridge recast will work out...but who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OLTL_fan Posted August 27, 2012 Members Share Posted August 27, 2012 I can't believe they would consider recasting but looks wise, it doesn't seem like a great choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted August 27, 2012 Members Share Posted August 27, 2012 Ridge is NOT needed. B&B in a no-Ridge world has so much potential than recasting him with a name. The character does little as is and his departure could be a springboard for so many storylines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted August 27, 2012 Members Share Posted August 27, 2012 They could get years of story out of killing Ridge off. It just makes no sense to not go that route if Ronn is leaving and they can do it in a way that would allow him to return if the future if he chooses. And they could use something to amp up their storytelling, its been nothing but love triangles and instant marriages for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Melroser Posted August 27, 2012 Members Share Posted August 27, 2012 I wouldn't recast right away even if it is with a "name" actor. Not that I watch B&B, except an episode here and there, but I personally would do a mystery story where Ridge literally disappears from LA. I'd do it so that not even Brooke or any of the Forresters know why and make it a story that involves all of them tracking down what happened to him. This would give time to either A.) get Ronn Moss to reconsider B.) decide to "kill off" the character after he's been out of the spotlight already for a while or C.) then recast with someone after Ronn has been absent for a while. This could easily be a six-month story arc if done well and weave Felicia and Kristen in and out of the story at times. This would allow the character of Ridge and the Forresters to stay in the forefront even without Ronn Moss onscreen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted August 27, 2012 Members Share Posted August 27, 2012 Moss' exit is THE best thing to happen to KKL and the character of Brooke. I sooooo hope they won't recast Ridge, there suddenly is story potential... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted August 27, 2012 Members Share Posted August 27, 2012 What exactly has Ridge been doing the past year or two that he needs to be recast. He's basically been Brookes appendage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members wingwalker Posted August 28, 2012 Members Share Posted August 28, 2012 I don't think they need a Ridge recast either and I can't picture Peter Reckell as Ridge at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Eric83 Posted August 28, 2012 Members Share Posted August 28, 2012 Peter Reckell is just so.... Bo to me. He is a hardworking, middle class cop in the midwest. Really can't see him as heir to a major fashion designing company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted August 28, 2012 Members Share Posted August 28, 2012 If Peter Reckell is going to be on a soap opera, it's going to be Days of Our Lives dammit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted August 28, 2012 Members Share Posted August 28, 2012 Once Ridge leave they can now write for Throne & maybe that guy who use to play Alan Micheal on GL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bardgirl Posted August 29, 2012 Members Share Posted August 29, 2012 I'm hoping that Thorne will finally get out of the basement. Ridge is the character I've always made fun of. They should just let it go but I'm open. I like Peter Reckell. I can't really say until I see it with my eyes. It could work out great or it could be a disaster.
