" 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.

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).

    • The transition from Neal to Adam was very abrupt, and to be honest my theory is that the character of Neal was designed so that we think he is super shady but then it turns out that he was on the side of good all along so Neal could have seamlessly become a hero of the BCPD with no need for Adam. I don't know whether Robert Lupone was hired on a short contract or if he was fired from a longer-term contract because they decided they wanted someone who was more of a leading man type, but I can imagine a scenario where Charles Grant did both the undercover Egyptian treasure/flirt with Victoria and the straighter-arrow day to day police investigation. But in my imagined scenario the MJ prostitution plotline probably doesn't exist and instead he probably continues a relationship with Victoria. The story seems very odd to me. I assume that David Canary would have been included only because a plotline where Steve is going to Finland in which only Rachel is seen in actual Finland seems unlikely. The synopses explicitly mention that Alice can't go with Steve but would whoever was playing Alice at that time have had the kind of clout to get the remote cancelled? It also strikes me as unlikely that production would have approved the expensive location shoot and *then* cancelled it only because of jealousy. It seems more likely that they rejected it because of the expense but then the jealousy part got added to the gossip speculatively, possibly because while it was being worked out they justified not including more castmembers because of the expense. 
    • My comment has nothing to do with cast resentment, but does relate to the Finland location shoot: It may be a coincidence, but Jim Matthews died in Finland in 1982.  Hugh Marlowe's final episode was in April 1982, but the character probably didn't die untll May or June. (I'm unable to find the character's date of death, only the date of Marlowe's final episode). SInce Jim and Rachel had very little interaction after around 1975, it is unlikely Jim's death in Finland had any connection to Rachel's potential visit, but the choice to have Jim die in that location at that time is a head-scratcher.  I'm sure the writers sent Jim on an extended trip (and off-screen) because of Marlowe's illness.  But Finland seems like a strange choice considering the (then) recently cancelled location shoot.  
    • I totally understand your sloths concern about it and I agree with you. Let’s hope the show plays it’s cards right.    Further comments about the last few episodes: - I liked that one of the attendees was filming the scene. That’s realistic. I wonder if the writers will follow up with that.  - Martin and Smitty trying to drag Leslie out was very heteronormative, so perfectly in line with them two as characters lol.    As for the future: it’s obvious the Duprees will come to accept Eva one way or another, but the rivalry with Kay should be here for the long term   On the topic of acting: the only bad actors I’m seeing are Ted and Derek. Tomas hasn’t proven to be either good or bad, so far, but he’s certainly mediocre and uncharismatic. He sucks the energy out of the scenes and I don’t see any couple of women ever vying for him. 
    • I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.
    • Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much. 
    •   Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year. 
    • Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go. 
    • Good morning, boys!  I figured that it was time that our Gio was introduced into the hotness thread

    • Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.
    • FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.
