On Thursday’s episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Paul (Hollis Chambers) who know goes by ‘Hollis’, and is the bartender from Il Giardino, gets his dream date with Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang).

While the young man tells Deacon (Sean Kanan), how much he respects Brooke and she is gorgeous to boot, will there be a steamy connection or just friendship between the two?

Meanwhile, Brooke and her new gal pal, Taylor (Krista Allen) are nervous and excited for Brooke’s first date, in what seems forever and certainly post-Ridge. Taylor tries to give her bestie some advice on having fun, and just going with the flow, and that Brooke deserves this and to remember, she has no obligation to the guy.  Taylor adds, “This could be the beginning of a brand new chapter for you.”

When Hollis shows up at Brooke’s, he is instantly smitten by her, sharing, “I just need to catch my breath.” Taylor stammers and decides it’s time for her to get out of dodge so the two can have their date.

Brooke, pouring two glasses of sparkling water, shares a toast with Hollis to the beginning of a wonderful friendship.  Next, Brooke says all of this is surprising to her. When Hollis responds, “Which part?” Brooke answers, “Being on a date with you.” Hollis shares, “I’m excited to see where tonight takes us.”

So what do you think B&B fans? Are you all in for Brooke and Hollis to hook-up, date, just be friends? Comment below.

It is a surprising turn of events, Brooke (any of B&B character really) dating outside ‘the family.’ Hope this can be an opportunity for character growth and the start of a stalker storyline.

Should read NOT the start of a stalker storyline … Sorry!

I think it would be cool for Dave Reed to re-enter her life, or, better yet… STAY SINGLE!

Love idea of Brooke single. It’s about time for her to be powerful. She received the blessing of the dying Stephanie and the writers just ignored that moment they created.

I’m glad they gave Hollis more to do. He is easy on the eyes and seems to be talented. I also like the romance of it all. They need more characters like Hollis to spice things up!

He is a greasy, icky boy. He is just infatuated with Brock mainly because she’s filthy rich and he is a loser with no money.

I so agree with new men spicing up Bold and Beautiful. You can’t always have Bill’s kids. Or Ridge for that matter.

Hollis is creepy and way too young. Brooke is filthy rich and Hollis is a bar back. He is way out of his realm. Brooke needs an older rich man absolutely not Ridge. Taylor mind your own business or are you getting Brooke out the way so you can get your claws back on greasy Ridge. ( he really needs to wash his greasey hair). YUCK

After being raped the idea of Brooke being alone in her home with a man she barely knows was a HUGE miscalculation on the part of the writers. Did you forget she was a rape victim?
Poor writing on your parts.
Not to mention it’s quite telling that Taylor is pushing her to date. She just wants Ridge to herself.

Taylor deserves to have Ridge anyway she can get him. After all we haven’t seen very much of them together without Brooke in the way. I like to see Taylor and Brook stay friends but not likely if Taylor takes Ridge back. Yeah everybody should wash their hair but this Hollis guy looks like a gigolo if that’s what they’re going for. Bell is known for his surprises. Let’s hope he’s surprises us with some brand new hunks.

Judgmental Ho much.

Ho,
I loved Thorston Kay on AMC but he’s so different here, looks and everything.The overly facial hair and yes his hair always looks like it needs trimming and a good shampoo.Did you see the other Ridge? Different as night and day.

I want Brooke and Taylor to couple up

YUK!

No way. How pathetic
The 2 need boyfriends
Yo start their rivalry
All over again

Aren’t you getting tired of the Brooke and Taylor Feud, fighting all the time? I’ve been watching Bold and Beautiful for 20 years but the writers need new and refreshing storylines not the same old ones we can predict the ending. Maybe they’re gearing for the younger crowd that hasn’t seen the plots like I have.

From Friday’s episode it looks like the writers are leaning in that direction.

I would like to see that happen that would be awesome.

Yuk out Taylor with Bill or maybe even Carter. NOT BROOKE

this is bold as we know how long before hollis becomes unhinged hope it doesn’t go that way but she will either be saved by taylor or thomas

Richard,
Unhinged? For sure. Brooke would make any guy crazy!

Hope Brooke has the fortitude to end the Hollis thing before it starts and not follow on old patterns. You would think psychologist Taylor would quit encouraging her, especially since she has seen first hand what happens when you meddle in people’s lives from her own kids Steffy and Thomas when they tried to get her and Ridge back together. But what am I saying…it’s a soap and will get messy. And I’m not so sure there wouldn’t develop competition between “best friends” when Ridge enters the picture again.

Watched B@B since the 1st show, but if they make Brook an Taylor a couple IM DONE !

Me too

I think the storyline of an older woman and a younger man would be a lot more interesting than Taylor and Brooke. Not sure I would want to watch if it goes in that direction.

Jr,
That would not be my cup of tea either. I think they tried a similar version years ago on Y&R with Catherine Chancelor but I remember the fans didn’t like it.

Stupid.Brooke is past her prime.Not a femme fatal anymore.

Stop this young guy wouldn’t be interested in this past femme fatale.Brooke past her prime.Completely stupid storyline.

Dorian Lord bedded men a third of her age. Monica Quartermaine had an affair with someone who turned out to be her nephew by marriage. Those were accepted by viewers. Somewhere along the line it became less tolerable. Erica Kane and Ryan were kind of off-putting. Is Brooke as dynamic as Dorian or is she more ego-centric like Erica?

Why not hook-uo, Live n Let live

If you take Brook and Taylor to lesbian status I probably will quit watching, it’s already too much as far as I’m concerned and as far as Hollis goes this is also weird , he’s creepy and the story line makes no since all.

I think they should hook up because she is older means nothing love is ageless once u become an adult. Her kids are grown it’s her time again to do as what pleases her and find Taylor and Ridge someone else fresh story line kids are grown life goes on.

Yes put Ridge with someone other than Taylor or Brooke.

I hear he may come home married, possibly the blonde bimbo from Vegas, but for real this time.

I think Brooke and Thomas would be interesting. Maybe all his hate toward her is because he really has other feelings for her

I think Ridge is going to come back married to someone else.

How old is Brook supposed to be now….how old is Hollis….does he have any power. Or is Brook the older woman with power this time?????
I missed something

Jk Tren,
I would think,according to her two oldest kids in their early thirties and Hope, that she’s got to be nearing 60 and Hollis looks to be late 20s. As far as power, he’s a lowly bartender/waiter. The only power is his youth. Brook has everything else.

What is the contract status of Thorsten Kaye? And really let’s knock it off with the lesbian nonsense ! You do know you can have friends and not bring sexual undertones in everything !!

Kay,
You are right of course but they sure are trying to make it tantalizing and using lots of innuendo. Are they or aren’t they? Unfortunately, I think a lot of fans are hoping for more than friends.

Thorsten Kaye spoke last year he’d be taking some time off, so that is why he isn’t on the canvas; he’s still on the series as a regular, but he is not filming.

I’m waiting for date between Brook and her new best friend Taylor…..

An older woman with a younger man would be exciting. We all know it would never work in a long run but anything is better than another run of Ridge and Brooke. Please don’t do that to us. It would have been fun to see Deacon and Brooke hit it off again. But you already have Sheila with Deacon. Yet again we all know nobody takes anyone from Sheila.

She should date him!!! He is perfect

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Has Dylan’s Mystery Caller/Stalker Been Revealed to Be an Alive Luna Nozawa?

Published

We have another scream machine on her hands at The Bold and the Beautiful after the dramatic ending of the May 1 episode, and that would be Dylan (Sydney Bullock)!

B&B is finally making some headway on just who was the person behind the mystery call that Dylan received telling her they have some “unfinished business.” At the time of the mysterious call, it was clear that the voice was altered to disguise the true identify of the person on the the other line.

On today’s show, after Dylan and Electra (Laneya Grace) exchange words in the wardrobe room about Dylan wanting to rebuild their trust and friendship and how Electra has issues stemming from way back trusting anyone after what Remy (Christian Weissmanm) did to her by befriending her and then plastering deep fake nude photos of her across social media.

The timing of Electra bringing up Remy is also interesting to us, as we had previously reported now that Christian Weissmann is back and on on contract with The Bold and the Beautiful, he’s already teased that Remy has another connection to someone on the canvas, which many are still believing its Dylan.

At the end of the episode, after Electra leaves the room, Dylan hears noises coming from behind the dress rack. She asks, “Jamie” is that with you? After no answer and a bit more hangar and dress ruffling, a figure steps out behind it, while Dylan is looking down at her tablet trying to get back to work.

When Dylan looks up, she lets out a scream that could be heard to Nebraska, as viewers see partial view of what looks to be a woman with long dark hair from the back. Dylan in shock, says, “It’s you!” We fade to black.

So, what’s going on here? Is the reason the caller said to her that we have “unfinished business” because on Monday, it will be revealed to actually be an alive and well, Luna (Lisa Yamada)? Did the two strikes some sort of deal, that allowed Dylan to help Luna escape after Luna supposedly died after Dylan ran her down with her car, which was all off-screen? Another theory, is the mystery caller is Remy and he is doing some sort of Luna fakeout on Dylan for a yet to be revealed reason.

What do you think is going on? Did Lisa Yamada just make an on-screen return to The Bold and the Beautiful? Share your thoughts and theories below, but first check out our recent interview from back in March on the Michael Fairman Channel when Lisa who attended the BBTV app launch party.

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Nick Confesses His Drug Problem to Victor; Joshua Morrow, Mark Grossman, Eric Braeden Bring the Newman Bond

Published

When The Young and the Restless can deliver an emotional side to their stories and their family dynamics, it usually makes for some great scenes delivered by their A-list cast.

Such was the case on the Friday, May 1 episode when Adam (Mark Grossman) and Nick (Joshua Morrow) returned to Genoa City and gave their father, Victor Newman (Eric Braeden), an update on what had gone down with Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) in Las Vegas.

As Victor questioned, “What the hell happened?” Nick piped up, “We both made mistakes along the way, but we’re here now and we’re sorry for giving you so much worry on top of everything else that you’re dealing with,” which was in reference to Victor trying to reclaim his company Newman Enterprises et al.

NICK’S CONFESSION

Next, Nick, explains one of the ways he messed up while trying to go after Matt Clark, when he admitted to this father with tears in his eyes, “That’s one of the ways I messed up … I took Fentanyl willingly. Some of it was because of Matt, but most of it was on me. I was in a lot of pain, dad, after my accident, I was burning through my prescription meds really quickly after I left the hospital. I could see that it was becoming a problem. But honestly, I thought that I could manage it.  I was wrong. I was out in LA and Matt had taken Noah (Lucas Adams) and Sienna (Tamara Braun) and he gave me this bag of pills and said I could use it to trade for information. When I went out to that drug warehouse, he was trying to convince me and Sharon (Sharon Case) that Noah was a drug addict. I just put the pills in my pocket of my jacket and I came back to Genoa City and I was in a lot of pain, dad, and I was wearing that jacket. I put my hands in the pocket and the pills were there.”

Nick sadly added, “I was desperate. I couldn’t get anymore prescription meds, so I took the fentanyl  I’m deeply ashamed that I was so weak, but all I can do is stand here and tell you the truth that I’m going to make this right and I’ll get better.”

BROTHER TO BROTHER

Adam stood up for his brother and reconfirmed to Victor the plan for help Nick through his pill addiction, “Nick is already on his way to doing that. Sharon has set up an appointment with an outpatient facility. He’s going to do the meetings and he’s going to push through this better than ever.”

Courtesy/CBS

“You should also know that the only reason I’m standing here is because of Adam,” Nick confessed to Victor. “Every time I fell, you were there to pick me up. You risked your life to save me, and that’s not something I will ever forget.”

In the climatic and emotional ending of the scene, Nick in tears admits his shame to his dad, who comes in to give him hug. Nick says, “I’m so sorry. I know that this is the last thing you or this family needs.”

All three actors, Joshua Morrow, Mark Grossman and Eric Braeden, were excellent in this exchange in their scenes, but at its epicenter continues to be the Emmy-worthy performances by Y&R MVP, Joshua Morrow. Nick’s heartbreaking journey and fall from grace with his pill addiction problem has finally shown the clinks in the armor of the man who is always on the ready to help others … now he needs to let others help him through this. Can we do it?

So, what did you think of the scenes between the Newman man featuring Joshua, Mark and Eric on the Friday episode of Y&R? And though who watched also know that at the very end, Matt Clark who clearly has been injured wakes up from being conked out, so there is more revenge to come on the Newman clan. Share your thoughts below, but take a look at these scenes from a Canadian viewers who saw them air yesterday.

DAYS OF OUR LIVES: Sophia Seemingly Plans to End Her Life, But Not Before Setting Fire to Johnny’s Apartment With Him Trapped Inside

Published

By

The final few moments of the Thursday, April 30 episode of Days of our Lives, will pave the way, to what just may be the end of Sophia Choi’s (Rachel Boyd) life, but not as you may think!

After an unhinged Sophia paid a visit to Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman), maced him in the eyes, knocked him out and then tied up to a chair, now conscious, she lets him know that she holds him responsible for all the trouble and trauma she has gone through from adopting her child, and her being sent to a mental institution.

So instead of the unregistered gun Kristen (Stacy Haiduk) gave her to finish off Johnny, Sophia sets up a plan to light candle, use nail polish remover and turn on the gas on the stove to ultimately create a mass explosion, which although Johnny pleaded to her not to that to all the innocent people inside his apartment building, she doesn’t seem to care.

FIERY FACE OFF

The plan was supposed to be, after she takes care of Johnny she will toss the gun in the Salem River, then focus on payback to Holly Jonas before leaving town to start a new life.

Now, Sophia makes her exit, leaving Johnny to be a few moments away from an explosion or gas inhalation, when Chanel (Raven Bowens) comes home after awaiting the results of her mammogram. She sees Johnny tied up, as he panics and tells her to put out the flame on the candle, things go awry, and a fire has begun and everything may go up in flames with Johnny and Chanel inside.

A BROKEN SOPHIA

Back in her room, Sophia breaks down after reading the social media comments about her, she planted, and then starts writing a suicide or farewell note which says. “I’m tired of begging for forgiveness for my mistakes. All I wanted was to move forward, to be loved and understood. But it’s clear that I was never going to get that. Holly Jonas said that I was dead to her. So, as her former BFF, I’m going to make her dream a reality.”

A DEADLY TRAP

Now, the fate of Johnny, Chanel and Sophia will be revealed on tomorrow’s May 1st cliffhanger, which may be the end of Sophia when she crosses paths with Kirsten at the bridge near the river. We do know Rachel Boyd is no longer appearing in the show credits section and is now off contract with the soap.

So, what did you think of the climatic final moments of DAYS? What did you think of the performance of Rachel Boyd as Sophia Choi? Let us know via the comment section.
