Taylor, slept her way through two families!! TWO!! Including Rick! One could argue Brooke slept with both Forrester and Marone men, but Brooke’s never crossed any line with the younger men….Taylor would be more willing to sleep with both Liam and Finn, if Thudley would own up that she’s just as much of a pathetic s*ut as she always accused Brooke of being…

I know we are in an era where slut-shaming is a no-no, but I would love to see a list of how many men each of Brooke and Taylor slept with, and who actually wins! I really think it might actually be Taylor! 😂

It’s definitely Taylor!! 😂😂😂 it has to be! 
 

but it’s ok, because she doesn’t “follow her heart” like Brooke does…I mean she cheated on Ridge the first time because he didn’t want to die a virgin, but ancient history right?!🙄😂

It would be TV gold if Brooke drew up a list in episodes to come, and determined Taylor as the "winner". 😂

You have to laugh when you listen to Taylor's letter to Ridge, telling him about her betrayal, that her "making love" to James might have been her last act on this Earth. 😂 Sure, that makes it all better darling!

I hate it so much 😡😡😡 I mean despite Brookes actions in the past, I feel Hope has always been unfairly attacked just because she’s Brooke’s daughter! I couldn’t believe Taylor’s gull to tell Hope to her face today that “you were the only Logan that had any dignity left” when all the did back then when Steffy and Hope were fighting over Liam, was compare Hope to Brooke and saw no problem with Steffy using Brooke like tactics to get him….it makes me sick and I just wish for once, it would all get thrown back in their faces.! 

I don't watch the current show but since when is Hope the trampy one? I thought that was Steffy. Seems a bit rich of Steffy to act all high and mighty, lording it over others when she herself has a questionable record.

Not that I want to go there but the prevailing narrative is that Bradley ruined the character and made her stoop to Brooke's level because he hated Taylor's character so much. Much of that era is largely ignored by a certain fanbase.

Stephanie deserved all those slaps IMO! Just like she deserved Sheila’s physical assaults and Morgan’s Punch too! lol 

I agree!

One point of difference is that Taylor never slept with unavailable men, whereas Brooke chased after unavailable attached men. Seems like a valid argument which I won't argue with. Brooke did try and split up Ridge and Taylor which was wrong. But Ridge himself is also largely to blame as well.

The day that would happen is when Thudleys slimy hands are no longer writing those scripts! 😂😂

I haven’t seen those episodes yet, just for the reason that they will just piss me off more than I already am now! Lol😂😂😂

Steffys behavior towards Hope circa 2010-2013 was atrocious, and was never called out the way it should be. Stephanie and Taylor all but cheered on Steffy for acting that way which I think was the ultimate new low….ill never forgive Brad for not revisiting any of Steffys antics of this time.

Really?? To me he caters towards the “Logan haters” or else everything we complain about re: Taylor and Steffys past never being brought up wouldn’t be an issue…

I think he currently is obsessed with JMW and really wants to play up the “namesake” role, with her acting like an angry 70 something matriarch, which is the wrong way to go and  again doesn’t work with someone with Steffys history. Brooke should be the one constantly checking and getting in Steffys face since she’s older now, yet it’s not written that way at all….so I don’t think Thudley is a “Logan Lover” but any means.

All I ever read on YouTube is how Thudley loves "his" Logan and how she does "favours" for him. You know where I'm going with this lol. It all sounds so absurd.

For the love of g*d.....Yeah he loves "his" Logan so much, why doesn't he write it like he does?

Let's face it, Thudley loves to troll everyone through absurd, nonsensical writing. It's been this way for over 30 years. He is totally unserious as a writer and doesn't care if the stories lack cohesion, logic or continuity. Everything goes in circles. No one ever learns from their mistakes. Hypocrisy is the formula.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to the 1997 Angel!

These people that are bashing KKL on youtube and saying things like that...that she does favors for him... actually deserve a lawsuit to drop on their door-steps. How dare they? 

And I completely agree with the statement that Steffy was vile circa 2010... to even circa 2018. She was written as the home-wrecker and boyfriend stealer and the one with the more uncontrolled sexuality. Hope was the prude and the one that was written that she couldn't satisfy her men. The storylines the gave Steffy were storyline types Brooke was rocking in the late 1990s.

This sudden 180 Steffy character turned into a more PG 13 version of her grandma is something I've been ranting about for months. Bradley is acting like his viewers haven't seen  the show pre-2021. He really does at times. So yes it does seem absurd that they are slut shaming Hope of all people, but at least Rebecca is bringing it acting wise and that's a huge positive I can get from it.

I don't think anyone has doubted Rebecca Budig's abilities, but that still doesn't make her a suitable choice for Taylor. She's a perfectly competent actress, but completely miscast. Which is a shame, because she could definitely have been a great asset to the show, but she's put in an impossible situation, simply because Brad Bell can not think creatively if his life depended on it. Instead he just circles back to what he knows, which is a triangle that overstayed its welcome 25 years ago.

I don't disagree. It is not Taylor and never will be. I still enjoy her though, I never expected to, since I had this very organic negative reaction to the recast. 

Speaking of Rebecca Budig, I tracked down the episode she appeared in 1994. It's episode 1857.
