Welcome to your Bold and the Beautiful Daily Y.A.P.P. — Your After-Program Ponderings! If you blinked during today’s episode, don’t worry — you’ve already seen most of it. Let’s unpack the chaos, confusion, and cringe moments that made us collectively yell at our screens.

What Just Happened?

So, let’s get this straight. Taylor was crying over Ridge just last month — you know, the heartbreak where he dumped her and immediately married Brooke in Eric’s office before the commercial break? And Deacon? He was practically losing his mind trying to prove that Sheila was still alive not too long ago.

And now… these two can’t stop thinking about each other?

We’re sorry, but — what?

This sudden romantic spark between Deacon and Taylor feels about as natural as Liam proposing in the middle of a car crash. We’re talking zero chemistry, no buildup, and absolutely no reason these two should be together beyond someone in the writers’ room spinning the “Random Couple Generator.”

Why This Doesn’t Work

Let’s break it down. Taylor is a licensed therapist who should know better. Deacon is a man still married to Sheila “I’ve-faked-my-death-more-than-I’ve-paid-rent” Carter. These two mixing romance and therapy sessions? Nope. Just no.

Even worse, this pairing comes out of nowhere. Sure, both characters are in emotional free fall, but that doesn’t mean we need to watch them crash into each other. Deacon doesn’t seem like the therapy type, and Taylor’s not exactly the kind of woman who falls for her patient — especially one married to Sheila Carter.

When a pairing defies logic, lacks chemistry, and makes fans collectively go “ewww,” maybe it’s time to hit pause.

Our Advice to the B&B Universe

Deacon, please. Focus on your wife. Sheila might be a sociopath, but she’s your sociopath. And Taylor? You’re brilliant, compassionate, and capable of so much better than falling for a man who literally checked his pulse to confirm his wife’s death.

This is one of those storylines that makes you wonder if B&B is trolling us — and honestly, we respect the chaos, but we’re still begging: just say nooooooo to Deacon and Taylor.
