B&B's Location shoot in Aspen begins today! So who is involved from the canvas?
The Bold and the Beautiful begins its location shoot today in Aspen, Colorado! And according to the Aspen Daily News Online, there will be lots of drama afoot once the B&Bers land in the Rockies!
The taping, which will occur today through September 9th, happens on the streets of downtown Aspen, the gondola, the top of Aspen Mountain, inside the Ultimate Taxi and the private residence of the show’s executive producer and head writer, Brad Bell.
“He thought Aspen would be a perfect backdrop for this story,” said Eva Demirjian, director of communications and talent relations for the “Bold and Beautiful.” “We’re going to do some fun stuff in the gondola.” The story line involves the show’s characters Hope Logan; her fiancé, Liam Cooper; and her stepsister, Steffy Forrester, who has her sights on Hope’s man.”
The Aspen-specific episodes that will feature Scott Clifton (Liam), Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (Steffy) and Kim Matula (Hope) will air Oct. 5, 6, 7, 10 and 11. Stay tuned!

General Hospital’s John J. York On His Health Battle & Living Life While Waiting for Bone Marrow Transplant: “Let’s Just Go One Day At a Time”
John J. York’s positive outlook on his current medical diagnosis is quite remarkable, as his approach might be one many facing the same circumstances might consider. The beloved General Hospital vet, where he has played Mac Scorpio for 22 years, revealed last week that he is battling cancer.
The popular soap star shared that he has been fighting myelodysplastic syndromes, or MDS, and multiple smoldering myeloma: two blood and bone marrow disorders.
York spoke with PEOPLE about how he found out about his diagnosis, the support his wife Vicki has shown throughout, and how he lives life day to day, while he waits for an all-important bone marrow transplant.

The actor shared what happened the moment he learned of his diagnosis: “(The doctor) was explaining all these different things and cells and all different levels and words that had, you know, 25 letters in them. And I didn’t understand. And Vicki finally came out and said, ‘Does John have cancer?’ And he said, ‘Yes.’ And I’m sitting there, I’m really just like a fly on the wall, listening to him talk to Vicki because she was the one asking all the questions. At the end of his doctor’s conversation with Vicki, York’s one question was simple: ‘Why do I feel so good?’”
Vicki and John were in the process of moving to Tennessee to be closer to their daughter, Skyler, but considering UCLA in Los Angeles as John’s treatment center. In the end, Skyler’s husband suggested Vanderbilt University for John’s cancer center so he did not have to travel back and forth to the west coast.
Since March of this year, John has had IV chemo treatments every month, with another one coming up in September. On that, John expressed: “It is what it’s, you know what I mean? And then everybody’s gotta get their treatment. And then you go home, go about your life and you play with the kids. And here we are.”
Currently, York is waiting for a bone marrow transplant. He has been moved up the donor priority list. If anyone is interested, and you are between 18-40, you can join the registry here bethematch.org/matchformac.

York shared how Vicki is coping with what’s ahead: “Yeah, she’s scared, but believe it or not, I really kinda wasn’t because I feel great. Personally, I feel like it’s in God’s hands. God’s will be done. It’s gonna work out okay, one way or another. I’m either gonna survive or I’m not. And life goes on and things are gonna be okay for everybody… Let’s just go one day at a time.”
Share your well-wishes, and support and love to John, as he goes through the next phase of his health battle and let’s hope a bone marrow transplant donor is found for him soon. After all, we all want to see Mac Scorpio return to Port Charles, but more importantly, we all want John to feel better and beat this.Comment below.

Look who’s coming to Genoa City? None other than Mark Grossman’s (Adam Newman) mother, Patricia! The talented actor revealed on a series of posts on his Instagram story, that mom will be a part of an upcoming episode of the The Young and the Restless.
Accompanying his video shared on September 19th, Mark “When Mom comes to the studio… we put you to work!” He then wrote, “Crushing it.” Another video showed Mark’s mom receiving some blocking directions from one of the members of the Y&R crew.
In that video, the crew members instructed Patricia to smile while at the counter before walking away to the other side of the set. That’s when Patricia remarked, “Can I have a cookie?”

General HospitalSeptember 11, 2023GH’s Josh Kelly On Cody’s Plan to Save Sasha: “He Has to Use Some Tough Love to Get Through to Her”
It is very beautiful up there. I am just sad it revolves around three of the most boring characters on this show. Do they offer acting classes up there? Please give us Thorne and Nick PLEASE!!!!!
Again, I find myself agreeing with kay killgore… Please give us Thorne! Has there been anything more stupid than ignoring a talented handsome actor playing a character who is genuinely a Forrester and a vital member of the core family. I find myself lulled to boredom by the endless bed-hopping among near relatives and sudden plot twists and character u-turns. What can we do kay to rally for our Thorne?
I’ll tell you I have been screaming about this for years if I thought it would do any good I would write to Mr. Bell himself. Other blogs feel the same way about Winsor Harmon I can’t stand how the characters his parents treat him like he is chopped liver. He is the oldest male heir of Eric. This is just a rumor but I heard when they paired him with Katherine Kelly Lang and they had so much chemistry their were some people very jeaulous. Who I don’t know because it can’t be Ronn Moss they are good friends off screen. All I know is he is getting the shaft and he can act, get rid of the teenyboppers.
While I am on a roll here is a great story for Thorne, remember he was married to Brooke then divorced her soon after that she got involved with Deacon why not make Hope , Thornes daughter. Team up a grown up Ally and Hope half sisters Thorne’s heirs a lot of shakep at Forrester. Huh!! !That whole mess happened in a two month period she could easily be Thorne’s daughter. Thus starting a new triangle between Thorne, Brooke and Ridge. Call me Mr. Bell I have better ideas then you.
