The Bold and the Beautiful - MESSAGE BOARDS

I had to laugh on yesterday's show when Felicia asked Ridge if Donna was 2 when she had Marcus? He replied that she was a teenager. If Donna had him when she was 13 it would be more believable. I think she's around 36. I just can't fathom Beth being Brooke's mom. I mean she could be in her late 50's, but it's still not believable. I think Brooke is like 47 and Beth is like 57 in real life, so she must of had Brooke when she was 9. I'm sorry but I can't stand the fact that on soap opera's they have actors who look old enough to be there brothers and or sisters rather than their father's or mothers.

John McCook (Eric) is only 8 years older than Ronn Moss (Ridge)! Susan Flannery is 5 years older than John McCook. I think the idea is that these people keep their looks a lot longer than the rest of us or the real world does, unfortunately! Welcome to Hollywood!

That has been the only problem with this storyline is the fact that the actor playing Marcus is just too old for the part. The thing that goes on in Hollywood(and this has been going on since the Golden Age in Hollywood)is that when actors and especially actresses reach their midthirities or early forties the only roles they can sometimes get is to play the parents of children who maybe in reallife only a few years younger than the actor or actress themselves. In this case with Donna and Marcus they could have found an actor at least 20/21 to play the part. That would make the story more believable.

LMAO

I think Donna had mentioned to Katie she was 16 when she had Marcus..
