    She just doesn’t fit as Nichole’s younger sister to me.  Not only that, she’s not very attractive and is waaaay to skinny.  I wonder if she has an "in" with somebody in casting (her and Dario both).  She looks worse than Hope ever did.  I’m sorry but I don’t like either actress.  And I don’t like this storyline either so let’s just call it a day and send Taylor packing (and take Dario with her).

     I still do not see a dramatic improvement in acting and no chemestry between her and EJ.  Actually IMO Nicole is much prettier than  Tamara. Also it is not belivable that she is younger than Nicole.

    I think she’s prettier than the other actress and better too.  She is rather thin but she was that way when she was Ava too.  She looks to be the same age if not older than Nicole though.  As far as chemistry with EJ, neither actress has it, he’s better with Nicole.

     while they were on the picnic.  I’m not going care one way or the other whether she and E.J. become a couple because of what they’re doing to Nicole, but I have a feeling Nikki will soon have something in mind for both her husband and her sweet, saintly sis.

    I don’t mind if they bring someone back as a different character when they’ve only had a small part but Ava was on for quite awhile.  How are we supposed to think of her now as Taylor?

    His acting is very stiff around her as it was around Natalia Livingston. I think they better do another recast, or send Taylor on her merry way because I’m just not buying it.

    your usual perception of the show is always spot-on.  Didn’t care for Ava (actress) when she was on before and as for her playing Taylor – I knew that was going to be a mistake (even if the acting is better) – she doesn’t look like a younger sister of Nicole or act like it…I hope Nicky off’s Taylor in a fit of revenge and rage and then hog-ties EJ with his you-know-what’s!  ;)

     I just looked up the actresses’ birthdays.  Tamara (who plays Ava) just turned 40 in April and Ari (Nicole) will be 37 in June.

    she knows somebody important at Days.  How can you cast an older (who LOOKS older) woman as Nicole’s "younger" sister.  Heck, she even looks older than Brandon.  Not only that, I thought she was terrible as Ava and I think she’s terrible as Taylor.  I can’t imagine why they hired her for this role.

    Of all the actresses in the soap world, why would they hire one who has already been on the show as a different character??? I never liked it when they did it with Roman/Chris K and I don’t like it now. It DOES make it hard for us to think of her as Taylor.

    Lets not forget Adrienne as Bonnie! That was the worst character switch EVER!  I’m still not associating her with Taylor.  I think Ava when i see her.  and maybe thats because also I HATE this SL, Except for Nikki is back!!!  And since when does EJ call Nicole Nikki?  he did that today when they were talking in the living room.

    But maybe because he’s heard Faye call her that.

    I saw a preview on TV last night and, let me tell you, Nicole is going to rule that household.  Wow!  Just wait.  I hope we see that scene today.  She told EJ they will be married FOREVER!

     back at all.  I mean what was the purpose?  She’s been gone for years, and then suddenly she’s back, and as Taylor Raines, no less.  Like, who in the hell is "Raines"?  That one was never explained.  Also, Nicole couldn’t care less about her when she first came back.  She even tried to get rid of her right off the bat until it became evident that someone decided to make this ridiculous E.J.’s new "love at first sight" story line, which has just about gagged everyone right from the start, since to me it has almost ruined James Scott, and everyone knows it, including James Scott.  If I had to watch those scarf-sniffing, puppy-dog glances, "be-still-my-heart" flashbacks one more time, I would have lost it completely.  I do like Tamara Braun, and she is so much better an actress than Natalia Livingston, but the whole idea of Taylor returning at all has been a complete failure, something these writers are getting pretty good at.  Now things are going to change dramatically, so maybe then I will be able to appreciate the role a little more than I do now.

    writers could to do stop the ping-pong relationship between EJ and Sami…a relationship that so many viewers did not want to see anymore.  I know some did like that duo, but I think most did not.  There could have been sooooo many other directions they could have gone, but they chose this lame avenue.

    to add interest to EJ/Nicole and to get these two at each other’s throats. Nothing is as entertaining as Nicole getting revenge on someone, so maybe that’s why they brought Taylor in–to really get us on Nicole’s side.
