THE Bold and the Beautiful fans were left in shock after Finn was shot during Friday’s episode.
The cliffhanger ending has viewers fearing the worst, that Finn is dead and actor Tanner Novlan is leaving the series.
Fans had been worried that Steffy Forrester, played by Jacqueline MacInnes Wood, would be exiting the soap, but now many are concerned it’s actually her husband Finn who might be departing.
Dr. John "Finn" Finnegan told his villainess mother, Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown), he'd consider giving her a chance down the road to have somewhat of a relationship with him, but that didn't last long.
This was before his wife Steffy learned that Sheila caused Stef's step-mom, Brooke, to relapse by switching out her non-alcoholic champagne with the real version.

I'll try to tell the story as basically I can do.
Steffy Forester, a rich beotich, meets a handsome doctor named Finn, and they get married.
They have a baby called Hayes, all is well, until Finn's estranged mother Sheila, shows up, and wishes to be part of the family, and she is rebuuffed by Steffy.
Sheila is determined to be part of her sons family, and comes up with a scheme, to have Steffy's alcholic step mother(Brooke), have a drink on New Years Eve, and all hell breaks loose.
Steffy finds out about Sheila's doings and confronts Sheila in an alley, and they get into a verbal fight.
They are both adamant in their positions about their family situation, there is no middle ground.
Sheila pulls out a gun to shoot Steffy and Finn suddenly shows up and is shot by his mother.
The irony being that both ladies with their animus towards each other, lost the person they most loved.
Mods pull if you wish.
LOL!!!!
Can’t believe you posted this.
The narration is hilarious 😂
Thnx
Doesn’t anyone dead in a soap opera eventually come back to life?
Not in the habit of watching soaps, or reading about them,
but this is sounding like the plot from DALLAS.
Back in the day, the only soap watched when possible was
GENERAL HOSPITAL during the Luke and Laura story line.
And then there was “SOAP” which aired in the evening broadcasts. Both DH and I followed this as best we could.
My favorite soap has always been The Young And The Relentless.
I got caught in too. Didn’t realize the commercial right before the show...Bang, bang, BOOM had meaning. Think one more person is going to get shot. Steffy is due to have a child in real life so she may be getting a hiatus for several months.
I thought soap operas were dead.
Same here. I thought the only ones that they are still making are telenovas.
There’s too many characters on B&B that hardly get any airtime. Bill Spencer has barely been on in months, ditto Katie, his estranged wife. Wyatt Spencer is invisible, Flo hasn’t been on in a long time. Missing Forresters, too. Where is Rick ? Ridge, Jr ? Justin Barber, a storyline they just dropped after he betrayed Bill ? Quinn is largely missing, too.
Finn is a boring character and hardly has anything to do as well, so killing him off makes sense. His storyline effectively ended when he married Steffy. Stable, married couples on soaps are usually boring.
If Sheila doesn’t shoot Steffy on Monday’s ep (which would be overkill), they’re just going to have Steffy try to get Liam back for the umpteenth time (boring, Liam is such a flake).
"I never drink until sundown. That way you don't get to be a heel."
"Tough on the Eskimos," I said. "In the summertime anyway."
She watched me get my little flat bottle out. Then she went on: "His name was Sype - Wally Sype. He did it alone. And he wouldn't squawk about the stuff, not a peep. Then after fifteen long years they offered him a pardon, if he would loosen up with the loot. He gave up everything but the pearls."
Are you familiar with Tracy Melchior who plays “Kristen Forrester”? She and her family are friends of mine but I’ve never watched that show. Very conservative Christian actress.
The ones on Telemundo are good for people learning Spanish - not very complicated language.
When I worked in a public library long ago, immigrants - even the men - would check out Georgette Heyer and Barbara Cartland novels and probably watched American soaps, for the same reason.
Steffy made her own bed.
This is the extent of my knowledge of soap operas.
Mine was SOAP and Texas as a second.
They were fun when they were live, and the actors goofed up and had to cover themselves.
This actor is the Liberty Biberty (Liberty Mutual) commercial guy.
We haven’t gotten tired of that commercial, yet.
(’Are we married to ‘mutual’? ‘What if I come out of the water’?)
He reminds me of a slightly more respectable Charlie Sheen.
Naah, she never really reformed herself. I was a bit baffled by that “retconning” of her character having a child and just giving him away, as that would’ve been a selfless act. That seemed way out of character for her, and more likely she would’ve used the kid to rope Finn’s father into marriage and dumping his Asian wife (they seemed to drop the storyline of what happened with his parents, as it seemed like the wife was headed to divorce court after learning the truth about Finn’s parentage).
It didn’t take much for Sheila to be pushed over the edge, anyhow. She may have switched Brooke’s drink from non-alcohol to alcohol in retaliation, but then Brooke deciding to flirt and smooch with Deacon was on Brooke, not Sheila (where Steffy was wrong). I don’t really care for Brooke and painting her as some paragon of love and virtue when she was, after all, rightfully nailed by Stephanie as “the slut from the valley.” Ridge going back to her time and time again made him an idiot. Even Eric fawning over her after what she did to him wasn’t much better. I also don’t know what all these other men (including Bill Spencer and Deacon Sharpe) see in her except for an “easy lay.” You’d think she was the only viable female in Los Angeles.
BTW, I’ve never adjusted to “NuRidge.” Ronn Moss was the quintessential laid-back California dude as Ridge. Thorsten Kaye is still playing his thuggish, emo jet-black Zach Slater role from “All My Children.” Way too intense and ready to just explode. Add to that, I don’t think he has much chemistry with Brooke. Always seemed forced. He had better chemistry with Quinn.
The actor is funny in the insurance commercials. But he’s utterly bland and boring as Finn (it’s really the writing).
