Ronn Moss' Wife slams BB


Recommended Posts

I refuse to believe SF left for the money. I might be the typical viewer who believes anything they're fed from the press, but-- she had been talking about retirement for ages. And the Bells aren't known to be cheap. I don't believe HT's alligations.

As for RN, not only didn't his presence affect the ratings (maybe once), but I'm sure he would have been used more than his episode guarantee. Look at John McCook. He's getting a lot of airtime now more than ever. And then again, some people need to realize these shows don't make the money they used to way back, especially in this economic day and age. So, RN's wife should just shut up.

I haven't read the article - I read her tweets, but I will say that she is probably doing this in support of her husband - what she considers being a good wife.

TK is a very good Ridge recast at this point. If RM didn't want to reprise the role, they should be quiet. He made it very clear that he didn't. Reacting this way runs counter to the new enlightened lifestyle he claimed to be embarking on, which included leaving B&B.

I think Flannery was out the door anyhow, and when she was ask to take a cut, she didn't believe it was worth it. Another decision by the brass that was not off the mark - her absence didn't have a negative impact on the ratings whatsoever. Susan Flannery or Susan Lucci? Doesn't matter. Soaps are not making the revenue they once were, so the only thing they can do is cut expenses. Actors/performers can accept or walk.

RM's pathetic wife needs to STFU! This was Ron's decision, so if she has a beef, its with him. Too much time on her hands. Go get a damn job because Star Search aint coming back!!!!!

I think RM is justified in being upset about being offered a huge payout. We do t know how big it was, but according to her he was willing to take one but what was put on the table was too extreme. I think he and Devin have a right to be upset as would anyone in this thread; please don't kid yourself, especially if it was something like 50% after 25 years of work. With that said he decided it wasn't for him so he left. It's not like he stuck around to bitch about it. Life moved on and good for him.

Yes a 50% cut is huge and I don't blame anyone for walking over it, or even 20%. However, these actors are in a business, soaps, that are not making what they were 20 or even 10 years ago. If the industry isn't making it, of course the actors shouldn't keep making what they made all those years ago. Most soaps have been good at giving actors cuts and giving them more vacation time in return. They are lucky to work in a industry that offers pay cuts though as history has shown, most soap stars don't exactly have a great deal of other acting gigs lined up.

    • That'a an interesting comparison, and might be a parallel.  But i also know too little about sports  to really comment on it's accuracy.  It might have something to do with a "closed" system, and the consuming nature of producing or writing a daytime drama and coaching.  Both in football and daytime, those factors make it hard for new talent to break into the system.  And even a very talented coach or daytime writer or executive producer can only do one team (or one show) at a time, limiting that person's impact on the entire system.
    • Despite most of John’s family not being in this episode, I like that the ripple effects of his death are still being felt across Salem.  Welcome back, Jack and Jennifer!  I really enjoyed their scenes with Julie. Little family moments like that on soaps are always a good thing. And I agree, Julie. As great as it is to see everybody, I wish it was for a better occasion too.  I’m glad that we finally got Tate’s POV regarding John, though his scene with Cat did seem a little random. But I love that Holly rushed to the apartment to comfort him after she found out about John. Despite everything and despite the chemistry that they have with other characters, I like the two of them together. Btw, is Cat looking so closely at the pictures of John and Sami going to mean something in the future? Her date with Chad seemed a little unnecessary though.  I also do like the idea of Ari and Holly being friends, mostly because of the mess that it could lead to with Doug III. Tying that mess together with Tate, Sophia, the baby and the guy stalking Doug III could all be pretty good. And yeah, we really should’ve seen Ari talking to Will about John. Hopefully, they have scenes together coming up. And also, Doug III still needs someone much better to confide in about his problems  Speaking of that someone, we’re really lucky that Ron was sent packing before John’s death was written because y’all know that if Ron was writing it, Leo would’ve been front and center in all of this, and comforting his “bestie” Marlena

      His scenes with Jack were unnecessary too. Honestly, Jack should be beating the holy hell out of him for what he did to Gwen.  And, I’m really interested in the mystery of who Gabi heard EJ arguing with the night he was shot. I don’t think it was Johnny. 
    • Remember when we used to talk about homoerotic subtext on GH? Like this Bromance? Sonny & Jason! I remain somewhat amazed that ABC used it as a promo https://www.instagram.com/p/DH3fKzjJyy4/  
    • To be honest, moving Murder, She Wrote to Thursdays probably did seem like a good attempt at counterprogramming (they did the same thing with some success with Diagnosis: Murder the next season). They had hoped it would appeal to a different audience to the Friends juggernaut and wouldn't crash in the way it did. They also programmed Mary Tyler Moore's new show after it, so they clearly went with a "vibe" for the evening. With that said, I think MSW just have that end of the weekend vibe. Something you'd cosy up on Sunday evening while preparing for a new dreaded week.

    • I recall someone suggesting that football coaches have the same kind of situation where people who are clearly NOT good at the job get rehired over & over. I don't begin to know enough about that sport to evaluate this as a truth or not. But, I do hate how much damage it has accounted for in soaps.
    • Today’s episode was the first time Sasha’s been interesting since the one-night stand with Michael. 
    • She had two Hannah Swensen movies and a Christmas movie released since this was recorded in September (?). So yeah, I'd assume Alison was just booked and busy when these episodes were recorded sadly. 
    • But why is everybody telling the attempted murderer that they have evidence of her attempting to murder someone lol is Leslie gonna target Andre or Shanice now?  I did kinda feel bad for Hayley though. It makes me think something may happen as a result of her realizing that Dani is always going to be a part of her and Bill’s lives
