" At least Finn is a throw back to OG soap heroes, if it weren't for TK, Ridge would be barely a footnote in BOLD's history cause Ronn was NOT memorable at all" - @dragonflies

EXCUSE ME..... have you watched the REAL Bold... Not the joke that it is today... have you watched classic Bold? Ronn Moss is a footnote in the history of the show... did you really say that... are you kidding me... do you know what you are talking about?

Ronn Moss bad or good... DOMINATED the show for more than 20 years. Yes... 20 years full of storylines. He is recognized all over the world and in my country in Europe THOUSANDS were there to greet him when he arrived at the airport... women were fainting like he was Elvis or Michael Jackson. And we dont do that for anyone.

To say that he would be just a footnote is ABSURD and very offensive to what this man Ronn effing Moss GAVE to the show. He was not the most talented actor, but he had amazing charisma and he was unique in his own way. 

I am shocked of the things I am reading. Soon some of you will probably say KKL is just a footnote and Kim or JMW is the star of the show... Sweathearts... KKL and Ronn Moss Were The Bold And The Beautiful for decades. Together with Susan Flannery and John Mccook. Or are they footnotes too?

You sit here and you act like Tanner Novlan is the grace of the lord for this show while all he has done since coming on the show is 90 percent stay silent and be naked. Please... He is throwback to OG HEROES? Forgive me but this is not the case. The OG heroes are uncomparable to the character of Finn. And Im not saying anything about the actor. He may or may not be good. But to say he is a throwback to OG heroes... Is just laugh inducing.

I wouldnt even say Ridge was OG hero, but do you know what character Ridge was back in the day... From 1987 to at least 1993... LEADING. Manipulative... Funny. Don Juan type. And you sit here and tell me Ronn Moss will just be a footnote. 

I get it some people are obsessed with Tanner, but this is not a forum for your obsessions. Get real and stop denying the past and the history of the show. If Ronn Moss didnt exist maybe the show wouldnt have been so sucessful to begin with and continue for so long so you can have your favourites like Fin.

Let me repeat. I am not even a fan of Ronn Moss but I am very triggered by people denying his legacy and mark on the show. Learn to be more respectful towards the legends and the oldschool stars that were there in the beginning.

JESUS CHRIST.

Woah.  Fantastic post @divinemotion  LOL.    So what was the point of Steffy leaving Finn? 3 weeks of conflict and then they're back together?  Nothing has changed with the Sheila situation, so it makes no sense for her to go back to Finn.  When Steffy and Finn were fighting, they were actually interesting.

I was drooling for Ronn Moss... ?

Please register in order to view this content

And how did you get that impression... please do tell. People are drooling here and its every day and not for Ronn Moss. But when I decide to tell some facts... I am now drooling over someone. 

Wow... when people dont have real or valid arguments they can be so ignorant.

 

P.S for the sake of the joke.

Please... do drool if you want. I dont.

Thank you! It's absolutely mindboggling how anyone could refer to Ronn Moss' Ridge as a footnote! Did they even watch the show back then? Ronn is not a great actor, but he fit the role of Ridge perfectly, much better than Thorsten Kaye in my opinion, and he had great chemistry with his leading ladies (JJ, KKL and HT).

    • Loved Valerie Mahaffey as crazy as a box of frogs Sandy Cooper on Wings. 2025 needs to chill out already. May Ms. Mahaffey rest in peace.
    • She was great on there. And Wings. And so many shows. I don't feel like we get those character actors as much now.
    • Cady did have a southern accent as Dixie in her first few years playing the character... but it started to minimize the longer she played the character (which tracks because my aunt had a heavy southern accent when married my uncle and years living in the north has softened it quite a bit). Her initial stint playing Rosanna was partly due to mirroring the previous actress and eventually developing her own take on the character. And the thing about her take as Kelly on Y & R was that she was too sedate when she first took over playing the role (she was supposed to play a woman that had recently lost her child.. and trying to keep things together) and then went OTT crazy and didn't play it well.    And I don't care to remember her attempt at playing Jennifer on Days. I think this Pamela character is the first time she's playing a character from the start and I think she's like a kid at a candy store.  She's having so much fun trying different things... and I hope eventually she decides to settle on a more consistent character for Pamela (perhaps her love of accents is a character trait based on something traumatic that happened to her in the past maybe).
    • That's sad. I remember her mostly from ER and the shortlived, yet very funny, sitcom The Powers That Be.
    • As always loved seeing Ric with Liz. I hope the show forever keeps them in each others orbit even if it’s just platonic. I’m sure she’s going to cut him out when she finds out he’s blackmailing Alexis though. So darn.
    • I have to be honest I’m really struggling with this show. I love everything with Eva/Leslie/Ted/Nicole/Kat and enjoy Dani and Bill’s shenanigans (I’m on the Hayley needs to be recast train now tho), Chelsea is second to Kat as my favorite Dupree grandkid and I loved her coming out to her mom. The show was on a truly great run with the big Leslie and Eva reveal at Nicole and Ted’s anniversary party and the fall out has still been good even with the unnecessary Ted recast and them making Leslie kind of dumb by exposing herself too much unnecessarily. The real problem for me started when they rotated back to way too damn much screen time for Derek/Ashley/Andre (if anyone should have been up first for a recast it was these three IMO). They tried way too hard to drum up drama between Ashley and Derek and the actors were clearly fighting for their mediocre charisma less acting lives to make it work but none of it landed, just horrible. Naomi and Jacob and this weird homeless woman story are also BORING. I can see where its potentially going but IDGAF at all, my only hope for them is that they’re building a triangle with Naomi/Jacob/Kat because Jacob and Kat have stronger chemistry together than their current love interests (Eva is the only one who can make the awful Tomas work). Martin, his secret and still cringe worthy acting got kind of interesting with Bill dropping hints to Smitty but they completely lost me with that lil fakeout scene at the country club. The lame “teenagers” (air quotes because Samantha is no Bianca Lawson and never beating the black Andrea Zuckerman allegations) can get off my screen as well. Joey creeping on Vanessa is grossing me out at this point, I actually quite like Vanessa and Doug now but Joey falls totally flat as a villain and someone we’re supposed to buy Vanessa being enamored with. I’m glad they’ve finally set up something interesting for Vernon and Anita to do with this girl band reunion instead of Anita wringing her hands and telling us she feels darkness coming and Vernon giving a civil rights speech every episode but yeah… People who’ve posted with me for other shows know I’m not one for fast forwarding or hate watching either, if I find a majority of a show is not working I usually just quit but because of what this show represents for me as a Black male soap fan I really want to stick it out. Its just become a challenge lately. I saw Guza has left the building and I REALLY hope we hear about some more BTS changes. The additions of Tracy Thompson and Jamie Giddens don’t exactly inspire a lot of confidence from me tho. Honestly praying hard for a new EP to replace JHC, a lot of the stuff that annoyed about her PC and AMC runs has started to match up here. I’m giving the show through the Summer to rectify some things but IDK how long I can hold on tbh. Its been a struggle to even finish some of these episodes lately.
    • I agree. I liked the episode but it felt jarring to suddenly return to a bunch of plots that had been put on pause since the Nurses' Ball started. Although I did like Laura popping in at the end to tell Alexis that millions of dollars have suddenly disappeared from Ace's trust fund. One set of scenes that made me feel optimistic for the next few months were between Sofia Mattsson and Rory Gibson. While Rory has been good as a darker, colder Michael this week, I was worried that he might not have much range. But he really warmed up with Mattsson, and I thought that (for the first time) Michael and Sasha had some genuine chemistry.
    • Next week is going to be such a sad time... I just feel it based on what was shown today. I'm wondering if the whole John being bandaged thing being a throwback to how he first arrived on the show was a Ron C idea since it just seems as though this would be something he would come up with.  If so, it's good that Cwikly/Ford are in charge with the implementing of the idea instead of him. Just a delayed thought from the Ciara scenes earlier in the week, or last week.. and how she had an odd way of dressing/acting.  I chuckle because little Ciara did say that she admired and wanted to be just like Kristen when she grew up.  So the fact that her outfit choices are so odd/off beat and her manner is a bit OTT just fits.. especially since Eileen's Kristen had an odd sense of fashion and that frantic OTT undertone to her delivery. With that said, a part of me wonders how Eileen's Kristen would have handled the scenes being done this week in regards to John's situation.   
    • My god the smirking was back in full force today. He almost started smiling after Johnny mentioned he wouldn’t be there if EJ hadn’t raped Sami. I will say I did like seeing him with Dee as they’ve always had great chemistry.    They really are giving a lot of false hope with John getting better. I wish they hadn’t done that. Monday is going to be devastating. I really liked all the characters mixing and mingling today.  Nu-Rachel is still too sweet for me. Loved all the flashbacks. Everyone looked so young. Really enjoyed Brady’s scenes with John today.
