Members Cat Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 He sort of is for me, too. He redeemed himself after the awkwardness of Friday and connected much better with JMcC who rose to the occasion. He wasn't as haughty as RM's Ridge but more human, vulnerable, and that's a quality B&B lacks sometimes. His accent sounded American to me, perhaps a bit too NYC? The only issues I had were with his grey opening shot and the way he handled his martini like it was a gun. Or a toothbrush. The clincher will be the chemistry test with KKL and HT. Good episode today. B&B always looks stunning and professional. It is so restful on the eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 Thinking about this recast... Obviously hindsight is a fine thing, and when they hired Don Diamont a few years ago, TPTB had no way of knowing that RM would leave later down the line. But in some ways, DD could have made a good Ridge recast and TK as Dollar Bill. Facially, Kaye has a small resemblance to Jim Storm (Bill Sr).

Members Juliajms Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 Interesting. I can see TK as Bill. It probably would have been a better fit. Bill is basically Zack on steroids anyway. DD as Ridge is a harder sell for me. Maybe that's only because I'm so used to him as $Bill now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 TK did a really good job today. RM may have put his non acting stamp on the role, but I will always opt for acting! I can't wait to see him with KKL. I wish Katie was dead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 I cant get over that accent. He is not Ridge to me and I hope this is one of those gone by summer roles Oh and the opening is a disjointed hot mess! They need to work on better transitions bc those quick flashes to the crowd/models happens to abruptly and feels horribly pieced together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 Is Jacqueline MacInnes Wood still on contract? The credits seem to say so, but the press reports over the last half a year indicate her being on recurring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 She herself has said she is recurring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 I guess she is, although in the credits she is still listed in the contract section Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 It's confusing, they've not removed her from the contract section of the credits ever since she came to the show, but they had no problem removing others that were marked as 'recurring'. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 It's because they want her back. For now, they are keeping her spot open for her... and crossing their fingers that some of her PT projects don't work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ponds Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 I really warmed up to Kaye as Ridge yesterday. Amazing what some real acting can do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DaytimeFan Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 I warmed to Kaye today with KKL, as many predicted she would be his saviour. He isn't Ridge, but he isn't awful, they might as well have given him a new character because Kaye and Moss are poles apart. But Bell was smart and he did a beautiful exterior shoot for the first Brooke and Ridge scene, chose the right music and ta-da instant chemistry.

Members JellicleCat Posted December 17, 2013 Members Share Posted December 17, 2013 KKL is amazing. I swear she would have chemistry with just about anyone or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
