[Jeff]

Guess I'm in the lone, I welcome back the Sheila/Steffy rivalry, sure it's been done.  But enjoying the break from Zende/Luna/RJ.

There is no question that we all prefer this than the rapist. But it's THE WAY it's been done  that is annoying us.

30 years have passed since the eternal soap opera "the bold and the beautiful" was broadcast in Israel. To mark the occasion, we caught up with Ron Moss, aka the original Ridge Forester. Does he feel like returning to the series and what are the chances that he will visit Israel?

Do you miss the era of "the beautiful and the brave"?

"I miss the people I worked with, but I really don't miss the work involved in a series like this. I prefer the life of freedom to create my own works."

You were one big family for a good few decades, are you still in touch?

"No. I have not been part of this series for 12 years and beyond that, most of the colleagues who were with me have also left. Life has taken us all in different directions, we all have families and daily chores. Life goes on despite everything."

At the same time, the decision to retire from the show in which he starred for so many years was not easy for him, and the thought of someone else stepping into Ridge's shoes startled him. He said in the past that he asked the producer of the series Bradley Bell not to recast the role, but the production of the show refused and he remains hurt. "It felt like a betrayal and showed a real lack of respect," he said.

And we can't do without a nice scandal to end: in 2022 Hunter Taylor, who played the character of Taylor Hayes, admitted in an interview to New Idea that her attraction to Moss was completely real. "When I first came to the show in 1990, I was still married to actor Michael Teilo," she said. "Michael felt very threatened by Ron and the chemistry we had on screen. It was definitely a connection with intense passion. That's why I did everything possible to repel Ron." Just like in The Brave and the Bold, Hunter ended up getting a divorce and so did Moss - and the two drifted into a brief but stormy off-set romance. "I noticed that during all our kissing scenes, there were no holds barred between us. Before that it was just short kisses, stage kisses. We were both single and I guess we finally felt free enough to show our feelings without fear of upsetting our partners."

Well I'm peacing out, I refuse to watch Finn get dumped on/thrown under the bus for the 2 time in less than a year. Sheila needs to leave, everyone either has to be dumbed down or thrown under the bus for her

[Soapsuds]

I'm so tired of seeing Finn making these dufus faces and not shutting Sheila down. It's not believable. This show is catering to the stupids.

[Jeff]

Too bad, huh?  It's such a beautiful face!

[Maxim]

If Bradley goes to Hope and Finn... This will really hit rock bottom. Hope and Finn have NO REASON to go there and it's so stupid and repetitive. 

[Soapsuds]

The show already hit rock bottom. 

[Maxim]

This will drill the rock bottom and turn into a black hole.

The only way changes will be made is if GH passes it in the ratings. Let's hope PM is successful at GH so that CBS eyes start waking up.
