B&B: Ronn Moss Considers His Recast a BETRAYAL!

[AllMyDaysatGH]

"For me, that was a sign of real disrespect. One thing I asked of Brad Bell (executive producer) was not to recast. But it was in a phone message from him that I learned he intended to do exactly that. That was it for me. There is no going back.”

Ron get over yourself. You quit and you never learned how to act

[Aback]

What did he expect? Brad did the right thing recasting a legacy character and he even had the class to let RM know in advance.

LMAO.

LMAO!!!

It was a sure thing that he'd want to come back eventually but to ask for the role not to be recast so it's available for him whenever the f.uck he wanted another paycheck?

BYE, Ronn!

[AlexElizabeth]

LOL

[Cheap21]

Boy, bye. Did Ronn write that or is his looney wife speaking for him again?

[reallyhateskateonlost]

oh shut up.. you left. stop whining.

[JONNYSBRO]

Oh god he chose to leave and didn't want to take the paycut. Brad and CBS can recast any character anytime they want. They did wait a few years before doing so though it wasn't overnight that IMO was respectful and they chose whatever they damn want to do with the character. At least Michelle Stafford said I hope they recast and it's their character. It's sour grapes and he's upset Thorsten has done well.

[Cheap21]

a few years? It was one year.

[slick jones]

Moss and his wife need to move on. He's just mad he missed the call and the message wasn't "BABY COME BACK........"

[Soapsuds]

Oh please like anyone besides his wife cares. He was one shitty actor.

Ronn Moss was a great Ridge and a major part of B&B's ratings success. Is he a great actor? No, but he has charisma and he fit that role perfectly. I understand his frustration, but I think he should've kept it to himself. IMO after 25 years they SHOULDN'T have recast. He is one of the 4 core members and he should've been given an exit deserving of his tenure. It annoys me when soaps keep doing this, similar to Peter Reckell on DAYS. You don't always have to kill a character off, but these major actors deserve proper exits. THE FANS deserve proper exits.

With that said, and this may sound hypocritical, but I wish DAYS would cast him as Bo. Unlike Ridge that role has already been recast and Peter had left before. If they don't want to kill him or properly write him off I could see Ronn doing a good job in the role.

As has been said, Brad Bell couldn't have been classier in the way he handled it. He didn't even owe Ronn that courtesy call. With that said I kind of feel like Ridge was unrecastable. Ronn is a terrible actor, but that was the point. You can't just cast him with an actual actor and have him start reading poetry and stuff. He was camp, so you can't just make him into a tortured soul. The character wasn't even offscreen for long. He really wasn't needed on canvas and nuRidge hasn't added anything to the show.

Even though Ronn is acting a fool now, this just shows how much he cares and convinces me he'll be back eventually.
