B&B fans blast Taylor and Ridge as a “snoozefest” without Brooke’s drama. Nick returns June 13 as viewers call Ridge “repulsive” and beg Brooke to move on from this boring love triangle.
B&B SPOILERS: TAYLOR AND RIDGE ARE A TOTAL SNOOZEFEST WITHOUT BROOKE’S DRAMA
Fans Are DONE With This Boring Love Triangle as Nick Marone Sails Back Into Town
Let’s just say what everyone’s thinking, shall we? Taylor Hayes and Ridge Forrester without Brooke Logan pining in the background is like watching paint dry on a rainy Tuesday. Boring. Lifeless. A complete and utter snoozefest!
And B&B fans? They’re not holding back anymore.
One viewer brutally summed it up: “Taylor and Ridge are NOTHING if Brooke isn’t pining for him.” Ouch! But here’s the thing — they’re not wrong. After decades of this exhausting love triangle, fans are finally calling out the uncomfortable truth. Taylor might have “won” Ridge, but what exactly did she win? A man who only seems interesting when there’s another woman crying over him?
Ridge’s “Repulsive” Year Has Fans Seeing Red
Talk about a fall from grace! Ridge has gone from leading man to the most hated character on daytime, and viewers aren’t mincing words. “Ridge, especially this Ridge, was never a prize but the way he behaved the last year was repulsive,” one fan posted, getting immediate agreement from others who are equally fed up.
The man has spent the entire year treating both women like they’re disposable tissues — use once, toss aside, grab another when convenient. And now that he’s finally chosen Taylor? The romance is putting viewers to sleep faster than a double dose of Ambien.
Here’s what’s really getting under fans’ skin: Ridge seems to need the drama to function. Without Brooke desperately trying to win him back, without the tears and the begging and the constant back-and-forth, he’s just… there. Existing. Being boring with Taylor while probably thinking about Brooke anyway.
Nick Marone to the Rescue — June 13 Can’t Come Fast Enough!
But wait! There’s hope on the horizon, and his name is Nick Marone!
Jack Wagner is bringing the beloved character back to our screens on June 13, 2025, and the timing couldn’t be more perfect. With Brooke heartbroken and ready to quit Forrester Creations entirely (can you blame her?), Nick’s return offers something viewers have been BEGGING for — a chance for Brooke to finally, FINALLY move on from Ridge’s toxic hold.
Remember Nick? The one man who actually put Brooke first? The one who didn’t need another woman waiting in the wings to make their relationship interesting? Yeah, THAT guy. No wonder fans are counting down the days!
“I’m So Tired of Women Obsessing Over Sorry Men”
This quote from a frustrated viewer perfectly captures the mood of the B&B fandom right now. After 35 years — THIRTY-FIVE YEARS — of watching Brooke degrade herself for a man who treats her like a backup plan, viewers have reached their breaking point.
And honestly? It’s about time!
The most savage part of all this? Even Taylor has to know her relationship with Ridge is built on sand. What happens when Brooke stops pining? When she stops being the third wheel that somehow makes their romance… work? We’re already seeing it — their scenes together are cure for insomnia. Zero chemistry. Zero excitement. Zero reason to keep watching.
What Happens When the Triangle Becomes a Straight Line?
Here’s the million-dollar question that has fans buzzing: Can Taylor and Ridge’s relationship even survive without Brooke’s involvement? Because right now, it’s looking like a big fat NO.
Think about it. Their entire dynamic has always depended on that third person — the tension, the jealousy, the “will he or won’t he” drama. Take that away and what’s left? Two people sitting on a couch, probably talking about their kids, while viewers reach for the remote.
One fan nailed it: “Their whole relationship is meaningless without Brooke pining in the background. What kind of love story needs a heartbroken third party to be interesting?”
What kind indeed?
The Clock Is Ticking
With Nick sailing back into town in just a few days (June 13, mark your calendars!), the stage is set for a massive shakeup. Will Brooke finally see that she deserves better than being Ridge’s eternal consolation prize? Will Ridge suddenly realize what he’s lost the moment Brooke shows interest in another man? (Spoiler alert: probably.)
And most importantly — will Taylor and Ridge’s snoozefest of a relationship survive without their favorite third wheel?
Because let’s be real here. If Brooke actually moves on with Nick, if she stops playing this tired game of musical chairs, what’s left for Taylor and Ridge? A relationship built on… what exactly? Not passion. Not excitement. Just the hollow victory of “winning” a man who only seems to want what he can’t have.
Fans have spoken loud and clear: They’re done with this toxic triangle. They’re done watching strong women fight over a “sorry man” who was “never a prize” to begin with. And they’re absolutely done with the snoozefest that is Taylor and Ridge without the drama.
Is Nick Marone the answer to everyone’s prayers? Will Brooke finally choose herself over Ridge’s endless manipulation? Can this show actually move forward with fresh storylines, or are we doomed to another decade of the same tired dance?
One thing’s for certain — without Brooke’s tears to fuel it, Taylor and Ridge’s romance is flatlining faster than you can say “destiny.” And honestly? Good riddance to the whole boring mess!
