The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say that even the producers know that this was a miscast and that’s probably why they are trying to fix it the best way they can.
Producers Know Rebecca Budig Was A Miscast
Of course, we are talking about Rebecca Budig as Taylor Hayes. And while there’s no doubt that fans have been talking about this for quite some time now, it looks like the producers of the hit CBS soap have finally picked up on it.
That’s because a lot of viewers of the show have noticed one huge change in the character. Taylor Hayes seems to be wearing more platform shoes on almost a daily basis on the show. And that’s not just because the producers want to make Taylor look taller.
It’s perhaps because they also want to make her look like she has more presence on the show. After all, Taylor is the mother of Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), yet Steffy is always towering over her.
What’s Next For Taylor Hayes?
Clearly, the producers are trying to fix their mistake but it might be a little too late for that. The only way that they can change viewer perception about Taylor is if they recast the character altogether, but it’s doubtful that will happen anytime soon.
So far the producers of the show have not made any comments about the matter just yet.
Now, as far as what’s next remains to be seen. The Bold and the Beautiful fans will simply have to tune in each and every day to find out what will happen next.

You are correct about your assessment but the producers don’t really care. While I think Rebecca plays a more believable psychologist than previous incarnations of Taylor, she really doesn’t seem to be Ridge’s “type.” If this is supposed to be a Betty vs. Veronica she’s not the sexy siren nor the sweet girl next door. Considering “Brooke’s Bedroom” it’s obvious which one is supposed appeal to Ridge’s loins. But Ridge’s other attraction is someone who is sweet and caring and nurturing and I don’t get that vibe from Rebecca. Ridge isn’t really attracted to intelligence which is the character trait which seems most apparent to me. In that respect more than her height or her physical beauty is where I see the miscasting.
