Ronn Moss' Wife, Devin DeVasquez Takes To Social Media To Voice Her Opinion Over Ridge Recast!
Photo Credit: Kathy Hutchins
Well, we knew people would have their opinions one way, or the other, when Thorsten Kaye made his first on-screen appearances as the recast Ridge Forrester on The Bold and the Beautiful!
However, we did not expect the original Ridge’s (Ronn Moss) wife, Devin DeVasquez to take to social media to voice her displeasure over the introduction of Kaye on yesterday’s episode, so soon after his debut.
That being said, DeVasquez took to both her official Facebook page and her Twitter account to communicate her strong reaction to Ronn’s fans and her followers!
On Facebook, Devin started her posts with: “Okay many of you are asking my opinion on the new Ridge and I’ve been reluctant to answer, but today I watched and all I can say is that they were trying way too hard to match something intangible that Ridge had. All I can say is that Ronn would have owned that moment of this entrance they were trying so hard to achieve and I just didn’t see that charisma. I think you guys know what I mean. It’s the charisma that Ridge had from the very beginning never to be seen again unfortunately.”
On Twitter, Devin pointed out: “I think Bell shot himself in the foot with this one. He should have done what Ronn asked him to do and create a new character for this guy.”
So, what do you think of Devin’s comments? Do you agree with her assessment on the recast situation? What was your initial reaction to Thorsten Kaye on yesterday’s episode, which basically was a slow build to the new Ridge re-entering the Forrester estate. Weigh-in!
Oh brother!!!!
My very first thought! Agreed.
the show just ain’t the same without ronn moss.
i may quit watching, and i have been with the show since its inception.
I miss Ron Moss as Ridge!
I do not like this new Ridge. We want Ronn Moss back !!!!! Please come back the show is terrible without you Ronn Moss , We love you as an actor and really do miss you,
No one can replace Ronn Moss on the Bold & The Beautiful. CBS needs to bring him back! Bring him back and double his salary. Have Karen get in shape (40 lbs lighter) and become Ridge’s wife. Not BROOK! Ridge was and still remains the hottest male soap opera star!!!
Totally agree. Miss Ronn Moss as Ridge and all he brought to the show. The new Ridge is not Ridge, never will be. I wish Ronn could come back, and the Bell family should beg and offer him the moon. The chemistry between Ridge and Brooke was amazing and so missed. The show is not the same show I loved for so many years.
I wish Ronn all the best in his new journey, but hope it will lead him back to Band B one day. Also so thankful good health and happiness prevails in his life.
Ye poor kaye doesn’t cut it, no one can. There can only be one Ridge Forrester
and that is the one and only Ron Moss the hunk the man suave
classy az wowza.! 🙂
She went to far. Maybe they realize they made a mistake with Ronn leaving B&B. They must now realize its too late to turn back. So she out there bashing the new guy as Ridge to rile the fans her way. But she be so disappointed because most of us are done with them & are behind Bell & B&B & the New Ridge
If she ever held out hope her husband could return to B&B, that ship has now sailed because 1) you DON’T burn bridges by publicly saying the Exec Producer needs to take story ideas from actors, and 2) you DON’T criticize actors who were cast because your husband voluntarily vacated a role. It’s bad form, bad manners and reeks of ingratitude and arrogance all around.
I wonder what she’s gonna do when TK kills it, and we all know it’s coming. Post on YouTube? Skype? I think it’s funny that Brills a go. TK has chops, you’d think if you were an actress who was looking for an Emmy nod you’d jump at the chance to work with TK who just made Anjelica Houston look sexzy. Sorry but Bridge was puke worthy 20 yrs ago. I always wanted Ridge to stand up and be anything but a doormat.
We who have watched TK on other show know his ability. The actor can only do so much with what he is handed. I am thrilled to have T K here! I just couldn’t bear seeing that over surgical plastic face with those ridiculous side burns for one more scene. Can’t wait to see what Thorsten does with this roll. Sour grapes from Moss’s wife makes it so much more worthwhile! Go Thorsten!
Then your beef is with the “writers”, not the “actor”. Actors do not write the script or story lines. You obviously were a TK fan & watched HIM on another soap & network. Those of us who grew with all the B&B characters for over 20 yrs, find this recasting quite troubling and hurtful. We love Ronn Moss. TK may be a fine actor indeed, however he can NEVER be Ridge. There IS only one Ridge and that is Ronn Moss! Sorry.
I agree. I read those arrogant statements and was surprised at the crudity of her remarks. There’s no going back on this one. Good-bye RM. I think TK is going to be wonderful in the part.
Evidently Moss’s wife is as much an arse as he is!!!!!!!!!
Devin is right and B & B Fan is wrong. TK is the most boring Ridge Forrester I think I could ever imagine. He plays the role with almost no energy. Ronn used to walk into the room on the show and there was electricity in the air. TK has no charisma and has a poor sense of timing when it comes to his lines. His delivery is slow and boring. I know it might be considered poor form for the wife of an actor to complain about his replacement. But she’s right. Bring back Ronn!
I really and truly miss Ronn Moss. TK is alright. but there will never be a Ridge ike Ronn. He has charisma personified. A real natural for that part. I wonder what nut wanted him to take a pay cut.
Bet he’s sorry now. I know I am. To be honest. they ran the Hope Liam storyline in the ground. It dragged on waaay to long..They forgot about their loyal followers since the show’s inception. I part with this message,
B R I N G R O N N B A C K. F A N S A R E H U R T I N G
Yes she is right! Thank you.
I like the new one as well.
Could anyone be any less classy than Devin DeVasquez? TK has nothing to do with any drama between Moss and Bell, and it’s sickening to see DeVasquez bringing him into it. Thorsten’s a class act and deserves better than this.
Agree 100% but she’s just sticking by her husband. This guy is better looking too. Ridge was suppose to be a playboy who all the girls went nuts over. This guy suits the bill. Ron was/is a great actor but he didn’t have the look. This guys hot!
OOOhhh yessss, Thorsten Kaye is HOT and SEXY to the maximum!!! They should not try to put him with Katie or Brooke , but make him a rich sexy playboy!!! Bring on the HOTNESS!
Sounds to me like someone is very bitter, and it’s not Ronn Moss. Yes, Moss was great as Ridge but he did chose to walk away. Ridge is a very important part of B&B and he was needed on the canvas. Moss has had a year to decide to come back to the role he created but still, he choose not to. A recast was in order and I think Mr. Kaye will do very well if given the chance. Ronn Moss also asked that his fans move on from wanting him to come back as Ridge because he was no longer interested in playing that part. His fans have moved on, I think his wife needs to do the same.
Very well said Tracey!
His fans have NOT moved on! We just don’t watch this soap anymore. Mr. Moss helped make this show major! He had a right to negotiate and receive most of what he wanted. He’s EARNED that much! Old man Bell would have never disrespected Ronn like his know nothing, full of himself, egotistical, son did!
Sour grapes. Ronn should stick with his music as his acting (in my opinion) has always been one note.
I think the the NEW RIdge will be wonderful! He will take the character further in maybe a new direction!!! I didn’t care for Ronn much.
Too bad she doesn’t like the recast.
But, remember this, your husband left the show.
Why did he leave Ms. Vasquez ? $$$$
So, if he or you really gave a rats ass about the character he would have stuck around.
Thorsten Kaye is a great actor.
well said Susan!!
He’s only been Ridge now for a day. Why would you judge someone’s acting skills in a day? Give him a chance to prove himself he’s not a bad actor and he’s hot. Ron Moss is not coming back and he seems fine with that. I know that everyone is entitled to a opinion but she sounds kinda salty. It was Ron’s choice to quit and tour with his band. He didn’t have to leave but he did. Some people just wanted Ridge back and knew it was gonna be a recast.
I agree with her and also still miss Hunter Tylo (Taylor) who I don’t think was
treated very well with storylines .
No she was not what is she still in the bathroom at Eric’s. Brad Bell treats everyone badly sooner or later except for KKL and I will be nice and keep my opinion on that one to myself. Out of curiosity I went to her facebook and read her comments in their complete form she had some valid points but for a woman who just had surgery she needed to just say no comment when they asked her about the recast.
Absolutely true IMO too!
personally don’t think Ronn or Devin have a right to judge! Don’t get me wrong, Ronn will always be Ridge to me but people and characters grow and change!! B&B has changed many characters over the years and Ridge is just another one!!
I never have watched B&B..
but!
Thorsten Kaye ,, I love that man!
Well she is hardly objective is she? However she has a point. I know they were trying to build up the anticipation for a new Ridge, but if felt anti-climatic since everyone knew what was going on, so it didn’t live up to the hype.
Also both TK and JM looked very awkward in that reunion of father and son. Yet, I am still willing to give this recast a chance to make the character his own, but I do get how RM, having been an original cast member might have hoped Brad Bell would have retired Ridge from the canvas if he wasn’t playing him.
But very few people in daytime warrant that kind of treatment, so if RM was waiting around hoping they would beg him to come back at some high salary, I guess he will be waiting a long time, because he now knows exactly what the powers that be on that show really think of him— replaceable.
Mary I think that they were showing the strain these two guys have between each other after all Ridge did not even show up for his mothers’ death. I am told they are going to address that because let’s face it Stephanie loved Ridge more then anyone in fact at times it bordered on incest. I do not know if it will work or not but remember he is really Massimo’s biological son. All I care about is Ridge kicking Rick to the curb I hate that little snot. And if Mrs. Moss want’s to talk about people being treated badly Winsor Harmon has been on the show what 17 yrs now can’t remember and when was the last time he had a decent storyline try a very LONG time!
I love Winsor Harmin and think he us a good actor and very cute! When he and Taylor got back together recently I thought he was finally getting a long well deserved storyline and live story. Then… WHAT…they ship him back to Paris 🙁
She sounds bitter and it seems like it was all about Money and she ispissed Bell and CBS wouldnt cower to RM’s demands
First off, why would anyone care about this woman’s opinion? Just because she’s Ronn’s wife? That hardly seems like a reason for her to comment.
Secondly, didn’t Ronn leave on his own? I thought he wanted to pursue other things and whatnot. Where does he or his wife have any right to judge what Brad Bell does with Ridge when he was too petty not to stick around or come back.
Third, she didn’t see “charisma”? It was a literally 30 second scene. And, no offense, watching the show my entire life, Ronn was never the best actor.
I was surprised by the recasting of Ridge and I wasn’t exactly thrilled, mainly because I think bringing the character on NOW but not when Stephanie was dying is absurd. But I’ve seen Thorsten’s previous work and I say give him a chance to make this character his own- it’s been done before, it can be done again.
.
Love Thorsten no matter what character he plays. Everyone should give him a chance to prove to them he can play any character with lot’s of charisma.
ouch! does she think her husband was consider an actor? most often i use to hear him refer to as plastic as
ken and barbie. but whatever,its funny, i really don’t think of kaye of much of an actor either, but at least he’s less plastic.
I think she made herself look ridiculous. RONN is the one who wanted to leave! Fans respected his decision. Sure it’ll probably take some time for most fans to get used to him, but Ridge is needed on the show!! Ronn didn’t come back so what was Bell supposed to do!? It’s not Thorsten’s fault Ronn left! He said himself he didn’t even know he would be Ridge at 1st! Devin said a lot more than that and was flat out disrespectful to a man who didn’t deserve her cruel words. He’s been on screen for ten seconds literally and she’s judging and mocking him and his acting skills. She looked like a petty brat throwing a tantrum last night. Her husband left on his own free will so her childish rant doesn’t even make sense. Go Thorsten!!
I hate to mention this but
I will..
Devin and her wee rant is not different than soap fans and their sour-grapes and bitter and sometimes hatefull remarks they make themselves over replacement’s, and that is the truth,,
Some can even get viscous with their hate bent comments, so as far Devin voicing her opinion, it is no different than comments from soap fans 🙂 LOL ,,
lol correct; vicious …
This sounds like Devin has been hanging around Victoria Rowell to much! “Sour Grape”s so she has to cause a media stir, to keep Ronn’s name in the lime light.
I’m very happy for the change. I couldn’t stand his sissy boy scarves and his acting abilities….
This change is for the best and no matter how long it takes the NuRidge will by pass the OldRidge and B&B will be great no matter how many homes BB owns… gesh!
I Love Love Love Thorsten He Is Very hot And very Sexy,He Will Be Great For B&B Soooooooooooooo Many All My Children And One Life To Live Fans Will Start watching B&B Beacause Of Thorsten. 🙂 🙂
Thorsten Kaye just is just not Ridge. Ridge is a pretty boy. Thorsten is sort of sloppy looking. I won’t ever see him as Ridge. He will forever be Zach the Thug who shot Josh in the head to get a heart for Kendall. I really liked Ronn Moss as Ridge ,but if he and Bell could not come to an agreement, there were much better choices, IMO.
Exactly!!!!….reminds me of why I swore off this soap a long time ago. Couldn’t stand the way all the “behind the scenes Bell drama” impacted the show, not to mention the over-the-top (undeserved) KKL love! RM is Ridge Forrester, period, and always will be. Although he was going to be a tough act to follow, not in acting ability but in image and spirit, the least that could have been done was to cast someone who maintained the style, class and charisma of the original, not this extremely sloppy second! (Would be nice to see Moss turn up elsewhere, even if only for a short stint….would make an excellent new Cassadine on GH. How about it “Cartini?”)
Why Ronn ever married the likes of her I never know. She has no class whatsoever even bashing Ronn’s EX on Twitter the Mother of his 2 Girls. Not classy at all.
I didn’t see her trash the Mother if his children. Yes, classless and a sad person indeed
I’ll grant that she has a right to her opinion about what she saw on the screen, but isn’t it a little premature for ANYBODY to be saying “never to be seen again unfortunately” (in regard to Ridge’s alleged “charisma,” which I never saw, or anything else)? Even if Thorsten Kaye proves not to be the right recast (again, way premature to judge that, but OK, it’s possible), that doesn’t mean there isn’t another actor out there who can give Ridge the “charisma” that’s necessary.
This is a situation in which there’s probably nothing critical she could say that would sound appropriate, so I think she would have been wiser to continue to say nothing. As I said, she’s got a right to her opinion, and a right to express it, too, but just because you have the right to do something doesn’t always mean you should.
Gosh if she keeps this up someone may never work in this town again. This woman has no class.
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha
Well now we all know who wears the pants in that family. What is she a playmate in the 1980’s? Too bad he did not stay with Shari Shattuck who was much classier. And FYI she did nothing but trash mouth Hunter Tylo for years. His acting consisted of stroking hair and running around in Speedo’s saying Logan or Doc. I thought it was quite funny when TK dug through the swimsuits and tossed the speedo’s. And trust me I am not a fan of Brad Bell but this conversation should have been between RM & BB. If he ever had a future in daytime she just ruined it the Bell’s are a lot more powerful then some playmate and a used up rock star!
Now I’m upset that I missed that scene of Thorsten Kaye tossing out the speedos! That’s awesome! LMAO
How dumb Thorsten barely said hello yesterday and its not like Ronn Moss was fired he left on his own. She should shut her big trap and let everyone enjoy the show.
Devin needs to shut up and go crawl back under the rock from whence she came.
‘Nuff said.
That is the worst recast I’ve seen in a very long time. The “new Ridge” has no resemblance as to what the character of Ridge represents. There are people that can put on a haute couture suit and make it look like a Walmart knock-off , sort of like the difference between a Forrester original and Sally Spectre knock-off with Ridge (Ronn Moss) being the original Forrester haute couture.
I’m not saying that it was her place to express her opinion in a public forum, but, she is correct in her assessment of the recast.
I do not like the recast….judging his acting ability from what I saw Friday, he is a one dimensional actor.
I think TK said hello,and from that u deduced he is one dimentional?? Wow, did u go to school school for all that training? Give him a FAIR chance before u start cutting him down!
Thorsten Kaye is a classically-trained actor. It’s blowing me away that he’s being “judged” on one sentence, and one hug that was MEANT to be uncomfortable. And he’s physically beautiful, and wears clothes well. RM was the speedo king? TK is the no-tie king. Let’s give him a chance to do what he was paid to do, and not make blanket, incorrect and inappropriate remarks based on less than 60 seconds of an entrance.
Worst recast ever! It has been months and it is true what people say, he is one dimensional. He’s hard to watch. He isn’t believable as Ridge. He is More like spencer. He should have been a long lost brother. Soaps are good at bringing back long lost family members and over using that storyline.
Ridge is annoying, a snob, a romantic, a know it all and soft around the edges. Ronn Moss’s acting ability was sometimes annoying but he made Ridge likable. The new Ridge is overbearing, loud, abrasive, scruffy and not likable. Him falling out of helicopter was best thing to happen to show. I can’t bare to see him on screen anymore or hear his shouting voice. Time for another recast. Or bring back Ronn Moss.
I love Thorsten!!
Thorsten always looks dirty’ he needs a make over. cut the hair short and please shave your face. otherwise i like him’ he is a very good actor and hot too. lol
I don’t like Thorsten Kaye in the role of Ridge at all. I agree that he needs to shave and cut his hair, or at least comb it. He always looks like he has just crawled out of bed. And I don’t think he is a good actor. He acts like he is sleepwalking through all his scenes. To me, he acts as if he is bored with the whole thing. They should have hired someone who could show a little bit of passion.
I think Thorsten is hot with his scruff. But, since he is portraying Ridge Forrester, an icon in the fashion industry, I think a haircut and shave and a tie sometimes would be a good idea!!
Brilliant recast. Amc fans will tune in for sure. So many ways to watch with the cbs app and tvgn.
Hmm…sometimes it is better to say nothing at all – my advice to Mrs Ron Moss. I am far from a fan of Thorsten Kate. However, these comments are unfair, untimely. Not good to burn bridges – Mrs Ron Moss just burned her husband’s bridge.
I miss Ronnie Moss, I think he is a class act to follow, I wish him the very best also to his wife. But I haven’t seen this actor or heard about him, so good luck to everyone, and Merry Christmas everyone. After all it’s just a soap.
Note to the wife: Just because someone CAN blast another person (Brad Bell, Thorsten Kay) and try to embarrass them in public, does NOT mean they SHOULD do it.
She did not win RM, her husband, one fan with this temper tantrum. They liked Ronn before or they didn’t. She just looks petty and tacky and not too smart. Sorry.
TK deserves a chance no matter WHAT went on with RM and BB.
She needs to go all out and attach Kkl as well as Brad Bell since its all about the $. Brad has been giving KKL everything she wants including increase in pay for years and everyone else gets pay cut even when SF was on the canvas, she was asked to take a pay cut.
I expected goosebumps when he entered the home but I got nothing, who comes home after being away that long from his father and shakes his hand first, I expected a big hug first, a real moment between father and son but didn’t get it. I don’t blame the actor I blame the writers, they did shoot themselves in the foot with that scene but they have made a lot of mistakes by getting rid of Ron, & Hunter.
Her opinion has “bitter” written all over it, as it probably would from any one in her position, I get that, but as a result, what she thinks is irrelevant. Honestly, it is very hard (IMO) to judge someone’s performance in a new role after day one, come on folks, day one, really. I have not even seen Thorsten Kaye’s debut yet, but I personally think he will do an excellent job in that role, and wish him much good luck.
I think she shoulda kept her mouth shut, sour grapes. Ronn has shown class and grace,since,exiting Bold and Beautiful, she just ruined that!
OMG. This is beyond embarrassing. And not the first time for her, either.
This woman reminds me of a twisted geriatric version of Courtney Stodden!
Not a smart woman. Who would even touch RM after this, knowing what a
narcissistic explosive kook he’s married to? She did him no favors at all.
Let her keep running her mouth off, RM will be flipping burgers by the time she’s done with him. LOL!
ICAM, she did him no favor. Mr. Kaye CAN act, and very good!
Having dropped B&B months ago (and I was a 1-soap viewer), from what I’ve seen of Mr. Kaye, he is a MAN’S MAN and a heart-throb. I read his interview – he was humble, honest, and only trying to do HIS job, NOT RM’s. He had nothing but respectful comments about the former actor who played Ridge.
I’m certain he’s secure enough to look past the recent ranting’s of DD.
DD needs to get a grip on reality. Most get a gold watch and some cheese/crackers after 40 years on the job! But we’ve seen enough of the entitled mentality of some celebrities to know what’s behind all this. DD has previously ranted about other actors when it was to her benefit. Nice to see she’s getting back what she thought nothing of dishing out. She’s got the issues, not RM, from what I’ve concluded! She has no chip on her shoulder – she has the entire tree!
Maria…I AGREE!!!!! And…the more that that Devin DeVasquez looney-tune talks, the EVEN WORSER it’s gonna be for her husband Ronn Moss. And, Devin is just making herself look and sound STUPID AS HELL!!!!! Lame.
I haven’t watched B&B in probably 10 years but, Thorsten Kaye is a amazing that I started watching again the second I heard they’d hired him. He’s terrific. With the suckage that is GH right now (haven’t been able to watch that in close to a year, it’s terrible), Y&R and B&B really great. I’m glad they were smart enough to snatch him up so he’s on my screen again.
Katie, maybe ur watching a different show, but GH is on fire and has been for most of the year. What does Gh have to do with this thread anyway???
He had one chance to make a good first impression. Bell failed miserably, in my opinion. He might be a very good actor but he’s NO Ronn Moss!. They need to make him more clean cut or a cleaner cut actor. My husband wasn’t impressed either and what male really cares? I don’t have a choice but to give him a chance. So good luck,the new Ridge. I don’t even know his name.
B&B will have many new viewers due to the casting of Thorsten Kaye. I hope the longtime viewers will give Mr. Kaye some time to prove himself as the fine actor he is.
Right now the whole Ridge-Brooke-Bill storyline is so boring. They just spent an entire week rehashing the same dialogue over and over again. Enough already. Give the other actors a chance to work.
The person I pity the most in all this is TK. Poor guy…getting dragged into all this B&B behind the scenes drama. What a mess Brad Bell made when he let certain divas (male and female) run the show…eventually, they all turn on each other and on him, while taking down the innocent ones as well (TK).
TK arrival as the new Ridge is the reaon I tuned back in after a year of not watching B&B. He’s a great actor, and if (BIG IF) Brad Bell doesn’t ruin his character with his usual crappy writing, perhaps B&B can find its way back to a more balanced and character driven show.
But if I were him (TK) I wouldn’t want to deal with this crap….hopefully he didn’t sign a long-term contract.
Looking at this picture of her, I thought she must be rather young, but she’s 50 for god’s sake! She should know better! 🙁
She’s done her husband a disservice by making these statements. She’s only drawing attention to the fact that he was so terrible in the end. She’s probably just saying what RM wanted her to say, though, since he couldn’t say those things himself.
I only started watching B&B about 1-1/2 years ago, so I just saw Ronn at the end of his career, and I must say it was pretty awful. He always “phoned it in” in my opinion. Couldn’t figure out how two beautiful women could possible be fighting over this guy for 25! Freaking! Years!
Ronn was a class act when he exited the show, too bad some of that didnt rub off on her. She really only hurt Ronn!!!!
I agree that Devin hurt Ronn. I bet he was embarrassed of her actions. He seems like a very likeable and nice man!
I have watched B&B for a very, very, long time. I do like Ronn Moss. WE must remember that Ronn made the decision to leave B&B& he didn’t want to return to the show. I love Thorston Kaye& i am so thrilled be is on B&B as the new Ridge Forrestor. I think Thorston will be great as Ridge Forrestor. I loved Thorston on AMC & OLTL& he is an Excellent Actor. I do miss my beloved soaps AMC& OLTL & am heartbroken again that they are not returning again. I hope that someday my 2 beloved soaps AMC & LTL will be able to return again someday. Agnes Nixon , created both AMC & OLTL& she deserves so much better respect& she is a genius. Ronn Moss wife should not be thrashing & judgeing Thorston Kaye as the new Ridge& i feel she should keep her opinions to herself& she sounds so bitter & disrespectful. Ronn choose to leave B&B & not return. I am a soap opera fan for a lifetime. All of us soap opera fans , need to respect all of the soaps&show support all of the soaps.
Ronn chose to leave the role. He sealed the deal, in my opinion, when he didn’t even make a short appearance at his mother’s funeral last year. I wish Thorsten luck, because that is a hard one to explain away. Maybe Devin has been reading all the positive buzz about Thorsten coming and felt jealous, who knows. I love Thorsten from his AMC days, and am glad to see him again. If anyone can give Bill a run for his money, it’s this guy!
Jenny, he didnt make,ANY kind of appearance at Stephanie s,funeral because Brad Bell didninvite him to.. Brad stated Ronn told him upon leaving the,show, he,was done
and NOT to call him about coming back, Brad took him at his word. It was in several interviews on several sites, please get ur info straight before posting.
What info does Jenny need to get straight before posting? You make it sound like she criticized Brad Bell for Ronn not making a short appearance for Stephanie’s funeral but she didn’t say anything about him in her post.
Doesn’t take a genious to see that Devin is unhappy with the recast. But she is just wrong on so many levels, it’s pathetic of her to even comment. We have yet to see how TK will work out. I for one am VERY glad that the character of Ridge is back, perhaps I’ll watch now…Mm
I think that Devin is jealous that the recast generated a LOT of buzz, and that her husband’s character was recast with such a “name” that MANY soap fans love…and they’ll give TK a chance in the role.
I think Devin wants the recast to fail at all cost, because if TK succeeds it means that RM was *not* so irreplaceable after all…oh, and that Brad Bell “wins”. That’s what has her knickers in a twist.
He only said a few words!!! How can ANYTHING be judged from that!!! Ronn Moss CHOSE to leave and from what I have read, he is happy making music. As someone wrote, this seems like sour grapes; from his wife!!! Thorsten Kaye is a capable and talented actor. I am sure he will take the character of Ridge to interesting places. I wish him the best of luck!
Mr. Kaye is a multi-dimensional actor who when presented with the appropriate written word will outshine a one dimensional actor every time. It seems as though sour grapes are spread by a tasteless person here.
Ronn Moss is one of the badest actor ever seen! Happy about the RECAST and disgusted by this classfree and ordinary woman. she was or still is a pin up girl for the poors! Only because she and her hubby are no longer relevant, she bashing BB and Thorsten? Some one should tell her, how pitty they both are!
I’m a big fan of TK and Devin D.’s remarks are premature, inappropriate and downright rude. I don’t doubt that TK will succeed in this role and that he’ll bring his own skills to the role and make it his own.
That said, and I repeat that I’m a big fan of TK, the hype around TK’s hiring and NuRidge’s return has been overdone and in one of Devin’s tweets, she talks about the hype for him being too much. Much as it pains me to say, she’s right about that. Let the man show up and do his job and he’ll be great. Fans will follow and ratings may go up. But maybe because there hasn’t been alot of good news for soap fans lately with AMC’s and OLTL’s hiatus, people in the soap magazines and online have promoted TK’s arrival as if B&B never had a serious actor on the show before, or as if now his presence will make the stories change from nonstop triangles and quadrangles to something new and different. I don’t think that will happen, for what it’s worth. But TK’s arrival is fun and exciting all on its own. It doesn’t need to be over-promoted with crazy expectations the way it has. It will be good, I’m sure.

Sean Kanan’s Stepdaughter, Juliet Vega, to Appear on The Bold and the Beautiful
Coming up on this Friday’s April 26th episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Juliet Vega, the stepdaughter to Sean Kanan will make an appearance on the CBS daytime drama series in the role of Michele.
Keeping it “All in the Family”, the character is named after Juliet’s real-life mother, and Kanan’s wife, writer and producer, Michele Kanan.
Back in 2012, Sean married Michele Vega and thus began their blended family which included his daughter, Simone, and Michelle’s children, Peter, Gigi, and her twins, Annie and Juliet.

According to a B&B show spokesperson, Juliet’s B&B character is intentionally named Michele in honor of her mother and Sean’s wife.
While we don’t know how “Michele” shows up in story, it is the same episode that Clint Howard makes an appearance as well seemingly tied to the case of where in the world is Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown)?

We can’t imagine that Juliet wouldn’t get the opportunity to mix it up on-screen with her stepdad, Sean Kanan. Previously, the two acted together in Sean’s streaming series Studio City, where she played the role of Delilah and he played soap actor, Sam Stevens. In it, Delilah is the bio-daughter Sam never knew he had.
So, looking forward to seeing Juliet on B&B and how ‘Michele’ turns up in the story? Comment below.

Cameron Mathison Previews New Game Show ‘Beat The Bridge’ (Promo)
As previously reported, Cameron Mathison (Drew, General Hospital) will be seen doing double duty this summer when he premieres in June as the host of Game Show Network’s Beat The Bridge.
Now, while Cameron will be the host with the most, that doesn’t mean he will stop playing GH’s Drew. In fact, Mathison taped the game show in 2023, so it will now air for the first time in 2024.
Taking to his Instagram this week, Cameron shared his enthusiasm and some new hosting snaps, sharing, “Our newest game show host reporting for duty😎 Head over to the Game Show Network YouTube channel for your first look at the show and don’t miss Beat The Bridge premiering this June! I can’t wait for you guys to see this!”

In Beat The Bridge, an enormous interactive bridge dares players to cross by stepping on the right answers to challenging trivia questions. As they play, each steps forward and puts money in their team’s bank, with bonus money for each successful crossing. Here’s the catch: the team gets to keep the money only if it can “beat the bridge” by returning one of its players back across before time expires.

Meanwhile, on GH, Drew and Nina (Cynthia Watros) recently had hate-sex. Do you think its a one-time deal? Where will Drew’s story take him next under new head writers, Patrick Mulcahey and Elizabeth Korte? Stay tuned.

There has been lot of soapy projects coming to life and in the works of late, and now comes word that Kim Kardashian is executive producing a new series in development for Netflix called Calabasas.

The concept of Calabasas is based on the book If You Lived Here You’d Be Famous By Now by Via Bleidner. King set to write the adaptation and will serve as the series showrunner.

According to Deadline, Calabasas is said to be in the vein of primetime young teen and young adult soaps the O.C. and Beverly Hills 90210. The story follows “Via, a 16-year-old sheltered Midwestern Catholic school girl whose world is turned upside down when her family moves and she’s forced to transfer to the fast world of Calabasas High where nothing is as it appears and where everyone is trying to be someone else. It’s a place where dreams come true … but not without complications and sometimes unforeseen consequences.”
