Contrary to what you may have heard, being a TV writer isn’t solely about the interminable daily ritual of placing, receiving and consuming each afternoon’s rigorously debated lunch order. No—there are also fantasy football teams to be managed and Nerf basketballs to be bounced from one end of the workspace to the other. That, plus the tricky business of using one’s imagination to dream up the characters, storylines and dialogue that so many millions of people around the world build their lives around, e.g. a highly demanding creative act that often requires just as much strategic distraction as it does pure artistic inspiration. And all this is even before we even get to strikes, AI and a post-Peak TV landscape where the number of shows are actually contracting for the first time this century.

So yeah—it’s a hard industry to build a career in.

Dr. Taylor Hayes is making her way back to The Bold and the Beautiful, but there's a big catch.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Krista Allen (Days of Our Lives) is set to join the cast of the daytime soap, replacing Hunter Tylo in the role.

Allen's first episode is set to air on December 10, and it sounds like there will be a lot of soapy goodness on the horizon for longtime fans!

Tylo first appeared on The Bold and the Beautiful in 1990, and the actress exited for good in 2019.

But there was no big exit for the character of Taylor. The series explained her absence by saying she was doing missionary work in another country.

That was a low-key exit for a soap. These shows tend to have outlandish twists that shake things up when you least expect them.

Still, it's nice to know we'll be checking back in with the character,...

Dr. Taylor Hayes will look a little different the next time you see her on The Bold and the Beautiful: Krista Allen will succeed longtime cast member Hunter Tylo in the role on the CBS daytime soap, EW.com reports.

Allen will make her first appearance as Taylor in the Dec. 10 episode. Tylo originated the role in 1990, with Taylor battling Katherine Kelly Lang’s Brooke Logan for the affections of Ridge Forrester, played by Ronn Moss and later Thorsten Kaye. Tylo was a two-time Soap Opera Digest Award nominee for Hottest Female Star. She exited the soap for good...

While the film’s plot is being kept under wraps, it has been described as “a new take on the meta-human sci-fi genre.” Scripted by Nick Brown, it will be the first in a franchise of low-budget, high-concept science-fiction films made by Le Han’s newly formed outfit, RedOne Studios. Liam Finn and Le Han are producing, and a sequel to Five Below is already in development.

Perhaps best known for his turn as Dr. Shiro Ito / Dragon King in The CW’s Stargirl, Lee’s other TV credits include Westworld,...
