The Taylors: Who Played It Better?
The Bold and the Beautiful is on its third, and possibly final, actress for the role of world-renowned psychiatrist Dr. Taylor Hayes, with Rebecca Budig currently portraying the character, who's facing a devastating heart failure storyline. Since her debut on August 6, 2024, Budig's portrayal has sparked mixed reactions among fans. Some felt she was too young for the role, while some were still warming up to Krista Allen, the previous Taylor. However, when Daytime Soap Stop ran a poll asking which “Taylor Hayes” fans preferred, one thing was clear: Hunter Tylo, the original actress who debuted as Taylor in 1990, remains the fan favorite.
Here are some standout comments about the actresses:
Team Hunter Tylo:
Chastity Lucas Lawrence: "Hunter was the first. I haven't seen her in anything else, but I did see Rebecca as Michelle Bauer on Guiding Light. Krista was more charming, cozy, and approachable. Just as I was warming up to her, they put that ridiculous merry-go-round storyline in the show."
Jenna Marie: "Hunter, of course! She was phenomenal back then and really played the character well. It's hard to see others take over her role."
Magdalene Alston: "The originator! Ms. Hunter for sure!"
Team Krista Allen:
Theresa Filipiak: "Krista looks more like Steffy's mom."
Mallory Lauve: "Krista was great! I wish she had more storylines."
Linda Flores: "I like both Hunter and Krista. I only wish the writers had brought Krista back."
Team Rebecca Budig:
Pamela Nielsen Wallin: "I like how Rebecca plays the part, but she just looks too young."
Maggie Fitzgerald: "What difference does it make? I love the current one and accept her as Taylor. Just move on."
At the end of the day, while Tylo holds a special place in fans' hearts, both Krista Allen and Rebecca Budig have brought their own unique touch to Taylor Hayes. With the character's life hanging in the balance, fans are left wondering if this will indeed be the final chapter for Dr. Taylor Hayes.
