Rivals, Confrontations and Fashion Battles Next Week on Y&R and B&B
The next theme weeks for CBS’ The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful have been announced. So look for catfights and runway drama among other soapy delights beginning on May 11th.
The Young and the Restless will offer up legendary grudges dating back to 1993 during “Rivals Week” while The Bold and the Beautiful will roll out the prêt-à-porter and paparazzi from as far back as 1997 with high fashion and hot drama from their “Fashion Week”.
What to watch for on Y&R:
On Monday, May 11, Jill’s (Jess Walton) search for the truth leads to an epic confrontation with Katherine (Jeanne Cooper); Sharon (Sharon Case) worries about Grace’s influence on Nick (Joshua Morrow); and Michael (Christian Le Blanc) causes trouble for Victor (Eric Braeden) and Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott). The episode originally aired June 30, 1998.
On Tuesday, May 12, Victor’s (Braeden) foes are rocked by his shocking return to Genoa City. The episode originally aired Oct. 1, 1993
On Wednesday, May 13, Nikki (Thomas Scott) declares war against Sharon (Case) at the Newman Ranch, and Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) and Nick (Morrow) deal with a tragedy. The episode originally aired June 15, 2012.
On Thursday, May 14, Victor (Braeden) takes on Jack (Peter Bergman) and Brad (Don Diamont) to regain control of Newman Enterprises; Ashley (Eileen Davidson) is caught in the crossfire of the Newman and Abbott rivalry; and Christine (Lauralee Bell) and Paul (Doug Davidson) prepare for parenthood. The episode originally aired June 21, 1999.
On Friday, May 15, Lily (Christel Khalil) gives Hilary (Mishael Morgan) a rude awakening; Sharon (Case) struggles with Mariah’s (Camryn Grimes) presence in Genoa City; and Nikki (Thomas Scott) and Paul (Davidson) are reminded of their past with Ian Ward (Ray Wise). The episode originally aired May 22, 2014.
What to watch for on B&B:
On Monday, May 11, in the magical setting of Villa d’Este on Lake Como, Eric (original cast member John McCook) and Stephanie (Susan Flannery) worry that the delayed Forrester Spring Collection may be their last, and Brooke (original cast member Katherine Kelly Lang) attempts to calm a distraught Ridge (then played by Ronn Moss). Also, Sally (Darlene Conley) and Lauren (Tracey Bregman) cause a scene in order to crash the runway show, hoping to witness the demise of their rivals. The episode originally aired Oct. 29, 1997.
On Tuesday, May 12, as Aspen Fashion Week gets underway, Hope (then played by Kim Matula) says goodbye to Liam (Scott Clifton) as paparazzi swarm her with questions and call her a fraud. Unaware that his father’s plan to attack Hope is in progress, Liam and Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) talk about the memories they shared together in the beautiful mountainside town. The episode originally aired April 27, 2012.
Then on Wednesday, May 13, as Quinn (Rena Sofer) attempts to take the lead in final preparations for her fashion show, not everyone at Forrester Creations is on board. Wyatt (Darin Brooks) and Ivy (Ashleigh Brewer) encourage Quinn to move forward with her original plan for the show-stopper in spite of ruffling the feathers of Eric’s (original cast member John McCook) family. When Katie (Heather Tom) pays another visit to Eric’s home to thank him for his favor, he invites her to stay and watch the fashion show with him. As a sign of protest against Quinn, Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) decides to sabotage her presentation. The episode originally aired Nov. 11, 2016.
On Thursday, May 14, before walking down the aisle to become Mrs. Liam Spencer, Steffy (Wood) participates in a Forrester Creations photo shoot with her cousin Ivy (Brewer) in front of Australia’s magnificent Sydney Opera House. In spite of how difficult it will be to see Brooke (original cast member Katherine Kelly Lang) with Ridge (Kaye) at the ceremony, Bill (Don Diamont) assists his son Liam (Clifton) with some last-minute wedding preparations. The episode originally aired March 21, 2017.
Rounding out the week on Friday, May 15, stolen designs are in play as the Spectra fashion show is about to begin. Sally (Courtney Hope) feels pangs of guilt for betraying both Coco (Courtney Grosbeck) and Thomas (Pierson Fodé), while CJ (Mick Cain) arrives and reminds Sally about their deal regarding the sale of the building – if the show doesn’t go well, he will be forced to sell. Bill (Diamont) is less than pleased with the idea when Wyatt (Brooks) plays devil’s advocate, stating that the Spectra show could be a success. The episode originally aired April 14, 2017.
So, what do you think about these upcoming video vault episodes from Y&R and B&B airing during the production shutdown of both shows due to COVID-19? Comment below
Y&R and B&B are dead and may never return to the living. GH will soon die and DAYS has new episodes through October.
Unfortunately, if you’re right, 4ever DAYS, and the CBS and ABC soaps die, I wouldn’t give DAYS much of a chance of surviving once its current stock of episodes runs out. I never thought about the possibility that Covid will be the thing that finally finishes the remaining soaps off, but you could very well be right.
I’d like B&B to do a Sally Spectra (Darlene Conley) week.
how are the ratings for these vintage eps compared to new eps of GH and Days
General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Josslyn Lands Herself in Hot Water with Cassius; Brennan is on the Warpath
This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, danger lurks for Josslyn (Eden McCoy) after her nosying around puts her right in the path of Cassius (Ryan Paevey). The WSB agent is on her own mission to find out how the supposed return of ‘Nathan West’ is mixed up in Faison’s final project, and what happened to Anna Devane, who claims she saw Faison, but was apparently gaslighted by Cullum and company.
In the latest ABC promo for the daytime drama series, Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) voice is also heard exclaiming about Josslyn, “She’s not just some ditzy sorority girl. She’s a WSB agent!” Next as Josslyn is trying to leave her apartment, Cassius grabs her arm to stop her with a smirk on his face. Will Josslyn put together the pieces that the man in front of her is not Nathan at all?
Meanwhile, another man in Josslyn’s life, her boss, WSB Port Charles Bureau Chief, Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna) is on the warpath. Is he on the warpath about Josslyn basically going rogue when he told her to stay out of things, or is he losing it because Carly (Laura Wright) had been shacking up with his sworn enemy, Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart)?

Lucas (Van Hansis) is seen talking to Carly who admits she had sex with someone else behind Brennan’s back, but he is worried about blow back for his sister, especially when he says, “What, exactly, will Brennan do if he finds out you are cheating on him?”
As the promo comes to and end, an angry Jack is about to stampede into a room, cut to Carly worried and sitting up in bed. Is he on his way to confront Carly? Will she be alone or with Valentin? Or is it all a red-herring?
The preview also features Curtis (Donnell Turner) pointing the finger at Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) as the person who caused the accident that injured Jordan (Tanisha Harper). But, is Curtis barking up the wrong tree, if the driver was Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) or someone else?
