Interesting.  I wasn't aware of the animosity between JY and BBell.

As for the returns, always good to see Thorne and Bridget.  But as mentioned, what about Felicia and Kristen...I wonder if anyone reached out to Lesli Kay and Tracy Melchior?  I wonder what both are up to these days.

Or Colleen Dion and Teri Ann Linn!

That said: dropping RIck and Maya was one of the super stupid decisions in the 2010s on B&B - alongside killing off Aly. The show had such a strong momentum going (2014-2015) and totally killed it.

ITA....killing off Aly was super misguided, and Rick and Maya deserved a much better exit story if they were going to get rid of the characters.

Meanwhile, how about a visit from Donna's son Marcus. Didn't Eric adopt him even though he was a full grown man? 

He sure did and given he's Donna's son too it would make sense

This!

 

Glad for Winsor - actors like him who are pushing 60, no real possibility of work, and need to have sufficient insurable earnings for the SAG/AFTRA health insurance.

Teri Ann Linn has been selling real estate in the Newport Beach area.

Colleen Dion seems to have been MIA since leaving Bold the last time.

Oh yes big fan of the original cast days - Colleen Dion, Teri Ann Linn, and Clayton Norcross' Thorne @I Am A Swede

That's a nice pic of TAL, she looks great.

With that amount of filter, anyone would look great!

We should start a list of ex soap actors now in real estate.

I'm half-surprised Brad Bell has never tried to recast Thorne again.

Colleen was a strange case as she lived on the east coast and didn’t want to commit to full time returning with her 2004 return; that said it was reported she was shocked when Lesli Kay was hired as Felicia the following year to finish out Felicia’s story and felt hurt she wasn’t asked back. Idk what happened. Dion was a soap hopper on various east coast soaps, usually playing a psycho lol except for her role on AW.

I was actually surprised he gave up on Ingo as Thorne so quickly just as I was surprised to see WH back for the 35th anniversary episode last year. I don’t know who he’d want as Thorne these days as I don’t think B&B has the budget anymore for ABC Daytime hires.

Clayton Norcross is my all-time favourite Thorne. He favouried both Susan Flannery & John McCook so well.

It was the Aussie's decision to not extend his deal; in Bradley Bell's world, that equates to no longer being written for. Recurring = fired for him.

He was my favorite too and he was the original actor in the role.

Eric is throwing a party, a family gala, before he dies. That's why Thorne and Bridget return.

But not Rick, Felicia or Kristen?
