ON THE AUDIO AND VIDEO BONUS YOU NEVER HEAR OR SEE BEN AND RIDER TOGETHER.ON SEASON 2 FOR EXAMPLE RIDER AND WILL ARE TOGETHER ON THE VIDEO PORTION.BUT THE AUDIO PART IS BEN AND DANNIELLE.MAYBE THEY JUST WERE REALLY GOOD AT ACTING AS FRIENDS.

I think the whole cast got along very well, but I'm not sure if they were best friends or anything. That might've just been acting. But I'm actually glad they teamed up Rider and Will instead of Ben and Rider because Rider and Will were my favourite two actors on the show. :) Since I don't have the DVDs I gotta know, what was their commentry like? :D

They were all very good friends, on and off screen. I think the reason the commentaries were split like that is because they were all busy, and just couldn't get together at the same time to do them.

I'm pretty sure they all keep in touch with each other, and they were all together on the commentaries for the Season 1 DVD :)

I think the split them up on the commentaries because they wanted to have Ben and Danielle's reaction to there developing relationship on the show.

If it means anything, From what they've said on commentary and other little things, Rider/Danielle seemed to be great friends..Possibly still are?

I have no clue or seen hints of a Ben/Rider friendship, but if Danielle can remain friends with Britney and Jessica..I dont see how Ben/Rider cant still be friends-to some degree...
