5 The Bold and the Beautiful Actors Who Spent The Most Time On Set

The Bold and the Beautiful has been on the air for 36 years and has no intention of stopping anytime soon. Created back in 1987, the soap caught the attention of viewers because it was relatable and showed real-life family problems that anyone could encounter.

Of course, over time, the soap has had its unbelievable moments and a few unexpected twists to keep things fresh and interesting, but to this day, The Bold and the Beautiful remains one of the most realistic daytime dramas out there. It's also the only one that's only half an hour long.

However, the length of an episode doesn't make it any easier for the actors to film. And in 36 years on the big screen, some of them have a hefty number of episodes to their name. Here are 5 of The Bold and the Beautiful's actors who have appeared in the most episodes so far.

5. Hunter Tylo – Dr. Taylor Hayes (2,679 episodes)

Although Hunter Tylo hasn't portrayed Dr. Taylor Hayes since 2019, as her character was recast, the many appearances she made over 29 years starting in 1990 were enough to get her on the list. Her departure was unfortunate, but understandable, as she felt her character was worn out by 2002.

4. Susan Flannery – Stephanie Forrester (3,833 episodes)

Although Susan Flannery left the show last year, the wounds of losing her character are still fresh. After so many beautiful episodes, the matriarch of the Forrester family was laid to rest after the heartbreaking discovery that her cancer had returned. Stephanie refused treatment and had the most touching sendoff of any B&B character.

3. John McCook – Eric Forrester (3,935 episodes)

With all the luck on his side, John McCook, one of the two original cast members of The Bold and the Beautiful who hasn't left the show yet, can reach the next place pretty soon and without any problems. For now, the actor has almost 4,000 episodes to his credit, which is more than anyone can imagine.

2. Ronn Moss – Ridge Forrester (4,411 episodes)

Although Ronn Moss left the soap in 2015, he was the show's central figure for many years before that. In fact, he filmed far more episodes in 25 years than anyone since, so he deserves his second place in this ranking. Well deserved, even though he moved on sooner than fans would have liked.

1. Katherine Kelly Lang – Brooke Logan (6,200 episodes)

It's hard to imagine anyone other than a soap opera actress appearing in more than 6,000 episodes, but the craziest thing is that Katherine Kelly Lang is still counting. As the central character in the story and the star of The Bold and the Beautiful from the very beginning, the actress has secured her status as the queen of B&B forever.
