This should be obvious, but I'm going to start here anyway - This is not a comment about Hunter Tylo. From the articles and interviews I've read about her, she seems like a wonderful lady. -
I know that I am going to get creamed for this, but I hate Taylor and I always have. She is the worst Oncologist turned Psychiatrist ever! She has bedded and/or married ever patient she has ever had, yet James is the one who lost his license. Seriously! She was supposed to counsel Ridge through Caroline's death. Caroline wanted Ridge to be with Brooke (and told Brooke that), but Taylor crossed the line with patient Ridge because the pull was so strong - or whatever. She only "pretended" to be Nick's therapist and never actually signed any paperwork (never mind what NICK thought) so it doesn't matter that she slept with and married him. She decided the best way for Thorne to get over his dead wife was to marry her. Okay, I guess she never slept with Stephanie - but no psychiatrist would treat their ex-mother-in-law.
She fell for the old "I don't want to die a virgin" act. She has broken poor Thorne's heart twice now (not counting the time she killed his poor, beloved wife Darla). She has been with just as many men as Brooke (many of them - Ridge, James, Eric, Thorne, Nick - the same men as Brooke), slept with her daughter's love like Brooke, yet Brooke is a [censored] and Taylor is a strong woman.
I've only taken a few psychology classes in college, yet I know that the reason Jack isn't bonding with Taylor as a mom figure is because Nick's thrown five woman as mom figures to this poor kid. Brooke had offered to step back, maybe Katie, Bridget, and Jackie should have followed suit. Instead, I'm supposed to swallow that Taylor is a great mother for giving up her son?
Speaking of which, why does everyone talk about what a great mother she is? The majority of Thomas, Phoebe, and Steffy's childhood everyone thought Taylor was dead. Who was raising these kids? Brooke. (Okay, I admit that the story only lasted, like, a year but those kids grew ten years in that year, so it counts).
Now, suddenly it's 1994 again and I'm supposed to sit through the Doc vs Logan for Ridge's heart story (which was getting old back then - Taylor just replaced Caroline in her storylines). Frankly, I don't even think Ridge is that great of a catch anymore. But that is a whole other long rant 
I will jump in to. I am so tired of this Storylines. Taylor is the worst psychiatrist I ever did see. I think she needs one herself and it's nice to see someone else that doesn't think she's so perfect as she tries to play. She has been with every man Brooke's has been with since she's been on the show so if Brooke is a [censored] so is Taylor. She keeps blaming Brooke for all her problem as her doctor I would tell her not to past blame. She made a choice to take up with Brooke's left-overs and it's not Brooke 's fault that those men usually seem to carry a torch for her even after many years. I also think that Ridge as airhead as he could be has always love Brooke more than Taylor so why would she want to go down this road again. Stephaine is not as great as she plays no wonder she gets along with Taylor hipocrite anyone. I don't think Stephanie has paid for pushing an angry Stormy over the edge. When he thought that he couldn't protect his sisters like his has always done and that Stephane was partly responsible for what happen to Brooke he went over the edge. Everyone has moved on and forgotten that ; because if Rigde had a Brain he would tell he his Mom to butt out. The fool call Throne and winny Brat Felicia wouldn't keep trying to push they parent back so soon. We don't mind a strong Stephanie but seriouly she is twisted and some people think that's great but that is sick. I am also tired of the Forrester's thinking they are the greater thing since slice bread. They also put the family first but as soon as Brooke of any of the logan's talk about they own they are put down, I think that 's why I've never really like the Forresters. I want Brooke to put them all in their place starting with Rigde kissing Taylor and telling Brooke about a silly picture she told with Nick makes him look like an idiot.
I don't know what happened to the show. I used to watch it when Ridge and Taylor met and now the show is not believable at all. I liked Ridge and Taylor together, but not like this I watch Y&R now.
Ditto.The disecting of Taylor's character is at best unbelievable. Why rehash the same storyline again, again, again, etc. Taylor giving baby Jack to Brooke was totally out of character, now she's engaged to Rick but grabbing Ridge & kissing him, Taylor was always loyal to those she committed to, even if no one else on this show was.
Exactly.
Please as I have said before it the same storyline over and over again. It is so tired and over. The show is a joke and so are the characters Let's see how long it takes Nick and Brooke to hock up again. Enough already.
I have been watching this soap for years and I have always wanted Ridge and Brooke to be together. I think that if Bold wants to keep things real they should keep someone together for more than a week.. I would love to see Ridge and Brooke run off and get married without anyone knowing and shock Rick he is geing a total A&*.

It is time that they both move on. How many times can one break up and get back together, enough already. If they are the love of each other's lives than why do others catch their eye. Both need to find someone that will love just them. I personally don't get the Ridge thing, he is so not worth it.
All the men on the show are dated and predictable. It's pretty boring. They need a bad boy type on the show. Someone with individuality and attitude.

I agree that Ridge and Brooke are getting a little tiresome,but that is the reason I think they should leave them together and move on from there. I think this show needs to have at least one set of stable couples, instead of EVERY ONE switching around. It used to be Eric and Stephanie, even though they had alot of "history", at least for a long time they were a united front for the family. Then they made Stephanie a total whack job, meddling, troublemaker, to the point that Eric couldn't ignore it anymore. I think they need Ridge and Brooke together, so that they can focus on some other relationships. (and maybe bring in some different characters) I think B&B is the only soap not to focus on the younger generation in a continuing format. Where they brought in Rick and Steffie and Phoebe, they have never let them grow as characters. They are in the spotlight for a while, and then they ship them off somewhere and they never really get to develop. Look at Y&R for example. They introduced Nick and Victoria and Billy and Lily when they were young kids and have kept them viable in the storylines over the years, until they were grown and having kids themselves......who hopefully will be integral parts of the s/l's for years to come.
Brooke and ridge are so played out! It is very old with those two! I never liked ridge with brooke! I don't see the chemistry between the two like everyone else does! Brookes logic is she has to be with ridge for there son! But doesn't she have 2 kids with eric and one with nick and 1 with deacon? What is she going to do there be with all of the dads at once! She has more chemistry with nick than anyone and she needs to go back to him and stay! They just need to bring someone on for ridge and leave brooke AND taylor out of it! If he has to be with one let it be taylor! At least they had chemistry! But that is just me!
I can say I see the chemistry you see between Ridge and Taylor but I do believe that Ridge and Brooke things is getting old. Taylor is so crazy I don't see her as a doc . All the women need help and not by Taylor. They need to be women without having men around to define them and if Taylor was a real Doc she would see that.

I am with you. Taylor gave up Jack to Brooke for a good life and now she is trying to get Ridge again. Last week she was in love with Rick and now Ridge is the love of her life. Ridge was a jerk today all Brooke and Nick were doing was taking a picture with thier son. But you also have Stephanie who is trying to get them back together. Hello haven't we done this already about 200 times. We don't care let Taylor move away and get on with her life. Brooke did not steal Ridge she was dead they were married and Taylor can back and tried to take Ridge. What was Ridge to do Sorry honey I know our son is 1 but you know Taylors back and she wants me back and yeah I know our kids are grown but they would be so hurt if I didn't go back to her. Between Taylor and Stephanie this show stinks. Also Nick needs a hair cut.
