Taylor acting like a love sick puppy that has falling in love with Ridge for the first time......wait it is because she a recast. :lol :na :love


I've been asking this question for months. What even was the point of recasting her as Taylor when her whole past, her whole history, even her mannerisms, her character, her class and sophistication have all been erased? Why make Taylor into this ridiculous caricature that could not be any further from the original version instead of casting this actress in a brand new role?


Exactly. I don't mind this actress or making Taylor her own, but the core of who Taylor is totally gone. I can't stand Taylor, but she's suppose to be sophisticated..this version certainly ain't that with that teenybopper mannerism. Plus, it's hard to accept this Taylor when her very flawed past is completely erased. Might as well cast this actress as a new character..who knows..I might even like her new character?


It made sense that the original Taylor looked down upon Brooke because even though she herself was from the valley she had adopted all the mannerisms from the higher class. She had decorum and was always well dressed and beautifully groomed with not a hair out of place. This new version slurps noodles, doesn't comb her hair and puts dirty feet on sofas. And she has zero dress sense and giggles like a clingy, lovesick teenager. Exactly what does she have that she can look down on Brooke? I actually feel bad for Brooke that this is who she has for competition now. Not to mention I find it funny that Steffy and Thomas call this immature version mom when they both act so much more grown up than her.


Yeah, it's just weird to me when I watch Tridge now..it's like watching Ridge with a teenager who has a crush on him. I never liked creepy Caridge, but even Caroline #2 acted more mature than this Taylor who sits on a desk at a work place or throws grapes at her adult son. :oh


Yes! Same here. I found that grape throwing really weird. Caroline 2 acted true to her age. I didn’t find her immature. She was a millennial obsessed with followers and likes on social media which lots of millenials are. Taylor is supposed to be over sixty. Its so embarrassing to see a woman her age act like that.

Yeah, it's embarrassing for a grandma on this show to act like a giggly teenybopper.

Shown on screen, Steffy blackmailed Bill. Yet, she told Ivy (and Liam too) that “blackmail is a crime”. Per Steffy’s own words, she IS a criminal cuz she has blackmailed.
