Hunter Tylo NOT Returning To The Bold and the Beautiful!
After rumors began this week that none other than Hunter Tylo would be making a guest return visit to CBS’ The Bold and the Beautiful as Taylor Hayes next month, came word today from the popular star’s official facebook page that that news of a return are false at this time.
According to Hunter Tylo – The Huntress caught on camera facebook page, this statement was offered up: “Rumors are out there, that Hunter Tylo is in talks with The Bold and the Beautiful, to reprise her role as Dr. Taylor Hayes, beginning next month. There is no truth to those Rumors, no talks are in place between Hunter and The Bold and the Beautiful. We thank you all for the love and support you are showing Hunter, XO Team Hunter.”
So, are you disappointed that according to the facebook post that there are no talks going on at this time between B&B and Tylo? Do you want her to return to the series now, especially in light of Ridge as played by Thorsten Kaye in the mix in storyline? Let us know!
Hunter’s perormance on B&B, IMO, really lacked the last few years she was on contract with the soap. I always loved Taylor, but Hunter lost her joy in playing her or at least I feel that way. I would take a recast. Lisa Rinna? Lisa Peluso?
I think it is more about the story she had to play.
LOL
Lisa Rinna would be a hoot, just to have her back on our screens
she’d still have time to keep her star out of our reach
she’s so ms. Hollywood
I’m glad “fans” even mention her
Dean…YES!!!!! I think that Lisa Peluso would make an AWESOME Taylor Hayes…HELL TO THE YEAH!!!!!
NOOOOOO. Terrible character and so so actress. Leave it alone.
I like B&B without Hunter Tylo. With all due respect, I find all the cosmetic procedures to be distracting.
I miss Miss Tylo as Taylor and hope the absence of actor and character can allow writers to restore the character to the strong assertive positive woman Taylor once was. Seems beginning with that awful embryo switch storyline — where are you Jack? and why doesn;t either mother seem to be concerned about you, despite the custody battle? — Taylor was made into a Brooke clone. Instead of playing against Brooke in the ongoing rivalry for Ridge’s affections, she stooped to her level with random relationships and games that sometimes seemed an afterthought. The endgame could never be Ridge and Taylor but she is the mother of his three children. And Thomas and Steffi remain vital characters. My fear is they, too, will fade intot he woodwork with Thorne, Felicia and other Forresters in favor of the Logans… and that would be a shame.
I am delighted she is not returning, because I am sick of the tired threesomes on B&b.
It has been replaced by the tired threesome/foursome of Hope/Wyatt/Steffi/Liam!
LOL… you overlooked my comment was plural. I guess that’s because I had temporarily forgotten about Steffi. 😉
I DO NOT want the character of Taylor returning to B&B anytime soon. No. I’m sorry but I was SO GLAD when Hunter Tylo left B&B. More and more, Taylor kept getting on my nerves…self-righteous, preachy, overly-moral, nosy, meddlesome…No Thank You. As far as I’m concerned, the B&B canvas is full enough already.
Peace.
Yikes!
right now… that could sound like:
Robin on GH
Sami on DAYS
as well
We don’t need another person in this mess of triangles—there is nothing this character could add to story as it at the moment. I for one am glad it was just a rumor.
Disappointed? No. They could always recast the part. Steven Tyler would be great.
Steven Tyler, huh??? HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Good one, Harry. LOL!!!!!
LOL– you made me spit out my soda with that one— thanks for the laugh it made my day.
LMFAO!!! That’s funny!
No I am not why should she go back and say one or two lines every week this is the Brooke & Hope show.
Why bother? Brad Bell only knows how to write for literally one handful of characters. It was the “all about Brooke” show for 20 years, and now it’s the “all about Brooke and her daughter Hope whom she conceived with her other daughter’s boyfriend” show.
I do not miss Hope in this show at all- I think Stephanie and Wyatt would be very exciting together as a couple- Love Liam but he is too passive and boring when he gets with Stephanie- this is the only soap opera I tape and watch anymore
Daytime Confidential has confirmed her return and called you out Michael. Let’s have a food fight!
I would love to see Hunter Tylo return to B&B. Maybe we would see a little less of Brooke for awhile.
B&B bring back hunter and make a storyline beter then ever before ..you have 2 make her fans that watching something 2 talk about..
I only wish it were true that she is NOT returning to B & B! Other sources claim she is definitely coming back and reprising her role as Taylor Hayes. No offense to the actress, but her character is the most lackluster of all. “Taylor” is a hypocrite, back-stabber, neurotic, alcoholic moron who can’t even recognize or help her own daughter with problems, much less any clients who seek her out for psychological aid. For a psychiatrist to carry a torch for nearly 30 years over a man who very obviously prefers another woman, is just plain INSANE!
Everything you said about Taylor except for the alcoholic can be said about Brooke. Brooke is still the same tramp she has been for the past 26 years. She hasn’t shown any growth at all.
I would like to see Taylor return but only if she has a decent s/l. Bell and his team can’t seem to write anything but triangles and they are written poorly at that. With one exception, I loving what they are doing with Quinn.
