I preferred this version of Rick & this actor’s take on the character. He held his own with Stephanie. Sadly, this one actor’s return wouldn’t save this show now. The writing, the actors & the background music, it’s all so different now. I don’t even recognize it anymore.
Well, to be fair, the background music was already changing by this time. However, they did still use the old music from 2008-2013 and occasionally use bits here and there (one was actually used in yesterday’s Christmas episode). With that in mind, everything you said was completely true.
👋. Thank you very much for sharing this. 👌👍Kyle Lowder was THE best Rick Forrester 👏. And he squared off quite well with Stephanie. This was a great time for B&B. How I wish the current writing & acting was like this. 😞
When Stephanie lies and manipulate Ridge she is right. When Rick does it, he is wrong. Love this Rick. Love that he called Ridge what he was, "the bastard son of Massimo and Stephanie ". The truth hurts is as cold Stephanie's bed.
I must admitted, that I love Rick being and acting like that. He is so entertaining. And quite frankly I do understand where he comes from. He's got some valid point.
Kyle as Rick was always so odd to me due to the fact he was on Days for so long.. not gonna lie he wasn't that bad. Young is still the best Rick imo but Kyle's a solid 2nd. if Days ever lets him go again I hope they snag him back and play him more down to earth than the first time.
Rick Rick Rick...silly boy. When are you going to learn? It's never over with Ridge and Brooke despite all of Stephanies schemes, Taylors schemes, and horrible mistakes made by both parties, it is never over. They love each other and despite misunderstanding's, they always get back together.
This was the best Rick, IMO. Kyle Lowder is head and shoulders above Jacob Young as an actor. JY seemed like a petulant little punk. Lowder always brought so much more depth to the role.
I love Queen Stephanie, but her hypocrisy is hilarious. You can't spend two decades trying to keep a couple apart then criticize someone else for doing the same thing.
jmnny85: Stephanie was ALWAYS that way and, the latter version of her, is EXACTLY the same. The only difference is, Stephanie didn't throw herself at a man who continually showed her that she was SECOND choice, like Liam does to StePHONY. Stephanie did plot, scheme and lie to Eric to get him to marry her but, as a couple, they built Forrester Creations together and had a family. StePHONY has done NOTHING but, constantly go to Bill whenever she's in trouble, so that he can strong arm Liam into reuniting with her. Stephanie's upset sounded hollow? That's putting it mildly!! She was a bona fide pretender and, look at who she had to rely on, at the end of her life? The "Slut from the Valley." What was even more ironic was, Brooke NEVER deliberately lied about the paternity of any of her children. Stephanie did and, I believe StePHONY is, too.
Jacob Young was my favorite Rick Forrester. Kyle Lowder's version never seemed like the same character to me; the overall performance was unremarkable. The writing was not that great in this era, though I've been a viewer sense almost the beginning of the show, and know that most of the characters were being written to act in ways that were contrast to what they would have done in the earlier seasons. It got so wacked out that sometimes writers still struggle to sort out the mess and make sense of it. For instance, it was soooo taboo for Thomas to kiss Brooke, but at one point Taylor thought nothing of being in a romance with Rick. Just sloppy writing, at the time.
Alright, let me put it this way. Stephanie and Brooke shared their hatreds for years and so does Rick and Ridge. But I'm sure that Stephanie should get past it and I'm not even too sure what will happen with her decision is to accept it or not. And I understand she always pushed Taylor on her side to get back at Ridge, but what do you care Stephanie? And I understand that she faked her own heart attack thanks to Brooke because she set Taylor and her son making commitments. Brooke and Ridge have no choice but to deserve each other and they were compassionate for well over 2 decades. What Brooke did WAS a part of manipulator in her life. Involving Stephanie's husband Eric, Thorne, Deacon and Nick. Then Oliver?! Hope would've been frightened especially Bridget. And I understand that Massimo and Stephanie were together in the past since the first time then leaving him with Eric, but I honestly couldn't remember since when I was born though I wouldn't care. Eric and Stephanie deserved together as the time she died of lung cancer. He had so many flings with Brooke, Beth, Donna, Quinn and now evil Sheila is back in town! Urgh! Anyhow for Rick misdeeds, he wanted Ridge and her mum to separate and not marry which is why he's underestimating Stephanie and the parts of her family. And now he's a three-timing cheater lying on Phoebe who involved so many women. Then she died instantly and all of the sudden, Rick was irresponsibly reckless in his life and this may have been one big tragic accident according to his mum however, he's in denial the next one. Like sabotaging the company with loads of his revengeful ideas consumed with hate and now having an affair with Phoebe's sister, Steffy! That's what I think this is all about in my own opinion.
See Stefan can relate with that because she got somebody beat her at her own game that she tried to do so that goes to show you she wouldn't do another crying wolf she didn't really want Ridge and Brooke apart there was a game she was playing the play tough
Everything that Taylor said to Brooke about Rick resenting Ridge b/c of neglect is confirmed here.
"You little son of a bitch." Kinda has a good ring to hearing it. LOL
Kyle Baxter It does
Lmao I love it

Actually, this was a MAGNIFICIENT pairing....and Rick with his dry wit, and ruthless drive turned out to be almost a carbon copy of Stephanie LOL
dolemitedavis
True I would’ve thought that Rick and Stephanie were mother and son.
hahaha absolutely. They looked like two manipulative bad asses!
👋. Thank you very much for sharing this. 👌👍Kyle Lowder was THE best Rick Forrester 👏. And he squared off quite well with Stephanie. This was a great time for B&B. How I wish the current writing & acting was like this. 😞
I couldn't agree more.
LOL Stephanie making mouthing remarks ''you are such a con artist'' cause she is finding it unbelievable but at the same time secretly approving it.
Yikes when did Rick become like this? He was so cute and sweet in the 90s 😂
For once Stephanie wasn't the one who was manipulative. I loved this Ric he was naughty.
Stephanie couldn't pass up that opportunity!
When Stephanie lies and manipulate Ridge she is right. When Rick does it, he is wrong. Love this Rick. Love that he called Ridge what he was, "the bastard son of Massimo and Stephanie ". The truth hurts is as cold Stephanie's bed.
lol yeah. She had absolutely no comeback for that piercing bullet about Ridge ! On any other occasion she would've punched his face to kingdom come.
Those two were good together..They had chemistry.
These two were great together.
I must admitted, that I love Rick being and acting like that. He is so entertaining. And quite frankly I do understand where he comes from. He's got some valid point.
Rick and Thomas have always channel their inner Stephanie I thought she would be proud
I just love this scene! Great actors!
probably the best b&b script between two brilliant soap actors EVER to-date
I don't understand why the writers changed this Rick. The one we got now is to young and Hope got to old. It doesn't make sense.
There hasn't been a Rick on this show in some time
It’s funny because now Thomas is trying to break up ridge and Brooke
Partners in crimes what a great scene
I really liked Stephanie character when she was on this show
rick being needy with brooke, stephanie and ridge know all about a son being needy with his mommy!
This reminds me of the new Thomas just the writing was so much better I miss this
Oh god don't I just love Rick especially this Rick
The old one was cute. U even couldn't hate him VERY well. 🙃
Kyle Lowder was the sexiest Rick.
He was by far the best Rick
It's hard to see yourself through someone else
Stephanie was stupid to not team up with rick she could have been got rid of Brooke.
Dream Queen Bridge love way stronger than that honey
Jacop Young is the real Rick Forrester for
me.I want him back please.
Akrepf969 well u got your wish he's been back
Kyle as Rick was always so odd to me due to the fact he was on Days for so long.. not gonna lie he wasn't that bad. Young is still the best Rick imo but Kyle's a solid 2nd. if Days ever lets him go again I hope they snag him back and play him more down to earth than the first time.
probably the best b&b script between two brilliant to-date
How did one of Rick's crutches crawl back up onto the couch after Rick threw them? I AM SO UPSET RIGHT NOW
Rifge raised him, just like a son, tbe blood doesnt change that
Ok for rick but not Thomas to play with their relationship
i love this Rick
Pot calling Kettle black. I miss this Rick. He went up against Stephanie and Ridge and they had the scars to show it.
Statefarm I agree this was always the best Rick. Jacob Young was always terrible Rick. This Rick now is too soft and kissing up to Rick.
Who is that cutie, anyway?
Rick Rick Rick...silly boy. When are you going to learn? It's never over with Ridge and Brooke despite all of Stephanies schemes, Taylors schemes, and horrible mistakes made by both parties, it is never over. They love each other and despite misunderstanding's, they always get back together.

I like both, but this Rick was a lil better
I love Queen Stephanie, but her hypocrisy is hilarious. You can't spend two decades trying to keep a couple apart then criticize someone else for doing the same thing.
never underestimate a mother's care for her child, or a woman who promises something to a man she loves
she was queen hypocrite and manipulator
Iam glad that Rick is not in the bold now i hate that guy he is fake
It doesn’t matter who’s Ridges blood father because Eric calls him his son so shut up Rick
Rick is such a S.O.B
Why is Stephanie on a high horse considering her conniving history?! Her upset sounds Very hollow.
jmnny85: Stephanie was ALWAYS that way and, the latter version of her, is EXACTLY the same. The only difference is, Stephanie didn't throw herself at a man who continually showed her that she was SECOND choice, like Liam does to StePHONY.

She was a bona fide pretender and, look at who she had to rely on, at the end of her life? The "Slut from the Valley." What was even more ironic was, Brooke NEVER deliberately lied about the paternity of any of her children. Stephanie did and, I believe StePHONY is, too.
So every body talking about Brooke and Ridge marriage Rick scheme to break up his mother marriage to
After all that Stephanie has done she dares judge Rick what a nerve she has
Stefanie was never better she was a control freak and manipulator
Ruth... Stephanie sit Brooke up to be raped 😡 l Never like Stephanie after that March 17,2023
Very few people can hold their own against Susan Flannery. Kyle Lowder is one of them. I don't know why he doesn't work more.
You hate my mother/ You hate Ridge... blah, blah. 100% right. Even Stephanie can't argue with that logic.
AntiStephanieForrester that You hate my mother and I hate Ridge
+AntiStephanieForrester Mind your fucking business as you're always oppositional on Stephanie!

I'm in the minority, but I didn't like Kyle Lowder as Rick. I was glad when they wrote him off!
I liked him on Days
@@maestroclassico5801 me too

DamirDelic1995 actually Sheila and Eric were together before he got with Donna and Quinn
@Akrepf969 He's coming back! September 26th!!
Brooke is not responsible Rick, she almost lost custody of RJ and Bridget. Rick and Hope are disasters bc of Eric, Brooke and Ridge bs. And RJ is MIA
Rick and Bridget are Eric’s children. Hope & RJ are the youngest, who Brooke temporarily lost custody of
was that before or after Phoebe died?
Why is he calling his mother by her first name?
Eric is Rick father correct me if i am wrong
Nickesha John . yes u right.
Exactly rick is pheobie uncle
Brady Black\Rex Brady DOOL
This Rick was hot!
It's the Logan moto destroy of people who are always taken
Then Stephanie must be a Logan.
He really is
See Stefan can relate with that because she got somebody beat her at her own game that she tried to do so that goes to show you she wouldn't do another crying wolf she didn't really want Ridge and Brooke apart there was a game she was playing the play tough
Who is Rick's daddy???????
@@MsKeva771 Rick is the father of Eric.
Jessica Rabbit
Eric is Rick’s daddy and Bridget’s as well.
Kyle Lower is the best!
Why does he keep calling her Brooke
Jay Brown . thats what kids do when they are grown. call their parents by their frist name.
He didn’t like her back then the rick we have now calls her mom all the time probably because he played rick as a kid and a teenager
And why Ridge is calling her Logan
@@patra400 Ridge always called her by her last name
@@leespike2078 no only brats who don’t get their way call their parents by their names
Stephanie hypocrite had done far worse and continued after this.
+natalie rose I wouldn't agree, I think Sheila was the only one done far worse upon herself and all the others than Stephanie.
