In the pick-up from Tuesday’s episode which saw Bill (Don Diamont) show up at the beach house where Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) was being tied-up by her son, Finn (Tanner Novlan ) and Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), Wednesday’s episode brought ‘crazy out of nowhere’ to new heights on The Bold and the Beautiful.

As had been predicted, Dollar Bill has gone back to the dark side and apparently aligned himself with Sheila Carter!  In story, when Steffy sees Bill she asks him to help them with Sheila.  Bill tells them there is no reason to tie Sheila up and that no one will call the police because everyone deserves a second chance and so does Sheila.  Steffy cannot believe what she is witnessing or hearing.  The actual best parts of these scenes were all of the reaction shots of Jacqueline MacInnes Wood as Steffy including almost throwing up realizing what was going on!

Bill goes on to explain that Katie (Heather Tom) and Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) all turn their backs on him, don’t want anything to do with him, and it all started with Steffy’s rejection of him. He adds that no one cares about him, and Sheila knows exactly what that feels like. He then adds that Sheila has become a part of his life now!

A flabbergasted Finn reminds Bill that he helped his mother, Li (Naomi Matsuda) rescue him from Sheila and flew him to Monte Carlo to reunite with Steffy. How is it possible that he is now teaming up with Sheila?  Bill says he’s here tonight to make sure Sheila remains free.  A stunned Steffy thinks Bill has absolutely lost his mind.

Finn gets his his cell phone to call the police.  Bill tells him he is not going to place that call and how could Finn live with himself putting his own mother behind bars?

Bill says he’s behaved so badly and caused so much hurt for the women in his life. Just then, Sheila puts her head on his shoulder. Bill says he’s moving on with someone he can’t hurt.  Steffy losses it even more!

Steffy shows Finn’s scar of where Sheila shot him.  But in a game of tit for tat, Bill and Sheila had a plan,  Sheila tells Bill to ‘turn’ she then lifts his shirt to reveal the scar from a gunshot wound. Steffy knows what that is from.  Sheila know is armed with the truth, because Bill told her, that Taylor shot him several years ago and he never turned her in. Bill says If Steffy and Finn go to the police, he will turn Steffy’s mother in for shooting him.  Of course, all of this happened before Finn was even in the picture, so he’s trying to figure out what everyone is talking about!  He doesn’t know how Steffy and Bill had an affair after Liam (Scott Clifton) made out with Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope) and then later, how Taylor shot the guy! Stay tuned.

Watch the big reveal and how B&B plans to keep Sheila out of jail so she can cause more trouble for Steffy, Finn and company below.

Then let us know, do you like the twisted heel turn for Bill Spencer? Can you buy-in to this story? Do you think down the line it could be revealed he did this to keep Sheila in tow, since he believes she will always stay one step ahead of the law even if she wound up in prison?

We have now entered into Bizarro World! No words!!

Dec 16th episode begging Katie / Dec 28th he is Sheila’s sweetheart ! Total trash I am done and pray they cancel this crap

Interesting use of history (I’ll take the attempt), but Beth and Kelly are his granddaughters. No matter how hurt he is over Brooke/Katie, I can’t imagine he’d even allow for the *possibility* that his grandchildren would be Sheila’s victims. But maybe that’s the angle: he’s doing it for them more than himself.

How are they going to dig $Bill out of this mess? Steffy looks so hurt that he would do this. Bill turning on Steffy for Sheila is breaking my heart.

He’s got to be like a doppelganger and or robot. That is s not the Bill Spencer we know.

I missed watching this show because the power was out in my area. After reading MF’s summary I’m turning the power off on B&B. And Carly on GH. Plus I’m tired of all the guns and shootings on the soaps. And not just gangsters like Sonny. This includes Ava carrying her’s in her purse. What wrong with this country and it’s guns. Sick.

rose,
These are soaps, try not getting them mixed up with real life where there are worse things I don’t even want to list that are worse than ” guns and shootings”. There are also worse people on GH that are a lot worse than ” gangster Sonny”. How about his punk son Michael willing to see his father behind bars because he left his Mommy Dearest, that’s the main reason. It sure didn’t bother him all these years the way he made a living that provided everything he’s got now. Michael just makes me sick, he sees Willow dying right in front of his eyes and all he can think of is sticking it to Sonny. I want to see him suffer too but not at Willow’s expense. Sorry for the rant, Happy New Year!

Violet…I watch soaps to get away from a lot of real life. You know that old saying…romance in the afternoon. They are soooo far from that now, and the stories and characters we used to like and watch. No wonder there is viewer increase in Hallmark like shows.

rose
That was my escape years ago when married and raising a family. The Soaps which ran all day, saved my life, taking my mind off of my own unhappiness, so I know of where you speak. Sorry, the Hallmark stuff I just can’t stomach, see one you see them all.

Violet…I am sorry to hear those years were so unhappy for you. You are a survivor in more ways than one. It would be interesting to sit and have a cup of tea with each other, to compare notes, cry a little, laugh a little. As for Hallmark, if you knew my background and interests, I’d be the last person you would think would have watched H. To be quite frank, much of the new stuff is wearing on me. So I don’t watch as much. I pick and chose. But some of it in the beginning was fresh and new, and I needed it at the time. So let’s all click our glasses, and have a nice New Years. Rose

Thanks for responding and I like the idea of the “tea party” but being so much older you probably would find me boring but yes, let’s raise our glasses, I do love Champagne ounce in a while, even at 90! A very happy and healthy New Year to you also.

THIS was the jolt Sheila’s story needed. I couldn’t see a way she could get out of the mess she’s in unless she went into hiding, but connecting Sheila and Bill is pure genius. Bill is at his best when he turns to the dark side, and the plot point of Taylor shooting Bill all those years ago has been completely forgotten until now.

This has actually been one of my biggest complaints since Krista Allen took over the role of Taylor… there has been zero mention of her “recovery” and past misdeeds. Now, it seems B&B is ready to revisit that story, and in a fantastic way. And it’s all the better that Finn is clueless about both the shooting and the affair, as it adds to the drama.

As for Bill, I just hope there’s an added layer to all of this that we’re unaware of, because it seems rather drastic to go from being rejected by Brooke and Katie to aligning himself with Sheila… I’d love some flashback scenes of how Bill and Sheila connected in the first place, and I can’t wait to see Deacon’s response to all of this!

Agreed!

Jimmy
I agree with a lot you’ve said. Bill just made me sick with all his carrying on about no one wanting him, my God what sane woman would? I was encouraged by Bill’s coming to Finn’s mother’s rescue but TPTB decided to go this way instead. Deacon looks like he’ll become a restaurateur in the future, it will be interesting to see who that will attract. Happy New Year Sir!

What a surprise when $Bill came to the door to rescue Sheila. Probably the only way to write her out of hiding. At least they had a previous storyline to fall back on. The show is getting very dark now unlike the nice Christmas episode. Brad has a great writing team and cast! Happy New Year to B&B and CBS Daytime. Expect No. 1 status soon—only 300k viewers away.

Cib
Surprise is an understatement but now his son’s have evidence to take to the Police, ha, ha. They have got to get rid of Sheila soon. She is so good she literally turns my stomach with her evil smile.

is deacon playing a bill double

Put Brad bell down like a rabid dog

God, will this never end? Just let Sheila go out and jump off the cliff!

This is sick, I’m going to stop watching show until this crazy stuff with Sheila and Bill is over with.

Jean Williams
I want to do the same but you know what they say about a train wreck. I’ve never thought Bill is an imposter, we all know what a selfish, self- centered person he is. Why do people think he’s an imposter?

I actually stopped watching the bold and beautiful because of Brooke and Ridge. I don’t think they should be together. She actually stole Ridge from Taylor in the beginning. I don’t like whiney Brooke. She always has an excuse for any and everything she has done intentionally or not. It is Taylor’s time to try and make him happy. So until that time comes I’m done with this soap. Oh and Thomas…
really does things out of the goodness of his heart, messed up as he does things but the outcome is the same.

I’m also tired of seeing Nina and Sonny together. It makes me sick.
Another soap I won’t be watching anymore

I need some long time viewers for this. I either wasn’t watching at that time or just don’t remember. I was watching some old videos and it was showing Stephanie and Eric getting remarried. I guess there was an involvement with Lauren Fenmore at the time and as the Pastor was reading the vows he found a photo of Eric and Lauren, in his Bible ,naked in bed. Lauren swore she didn’t do it and I believe her. Does anyone know who put that photo in the bible? Would appreciate an answer.

Could Kristen Vaganos and Josh Kelly Be Exiting ‘General Hospital?’

Josh and Kristen

General Hospital fans took to social media following the airing of the Wednesday, October 21 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. In story, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) reveals to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that she has received an offer to join the top law firm in Chicago that practices civil law. She says it’s her dream job.

The problem Molly says is relocating from Port Charles and uprooting her life and being away from her mother, Scout and boyfriend Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Wistful that she may lose another daughter to a long-distance situation (Kristina left a few months back to go to medical school in California), Alexis urged Molly to get Cody to go with her.

Molly still seemed concerned and has trouble committing to the idea. Alexis tells her to talk it over with Cody. Meanwhile, Cody asked Tracy (Jane Elliot) is he can have Thanksgiving off because he and Molly planned to spend Thanksgiving together with their families. After initially balking, Tracy agrees.

WILL MOLLY AND CODY HEAD TO CHI-TOWN?

Later, Cody shows up at Miller & Davis and the conversation turned to Thanksgiving dinner that Alexis is hosting. Molly and Cody asked her not to cook anything. Cody hugged Molly reassuring Alexis that he and Molly would take care of whatever was needed on Turkey Day.

So, this raises the question, why out of nowhere are we learning that Molly received an amazing law offer in Chicago, if the character was not being written out? If Molly leaves the canvas, would the character of Cody make his exit too?

Kristen Vaganos joined GH as a recast Molly Lansing-Davis back in September of 2023 and went on contract in August of 2024. Josh Kelly began playing Cody Bell back in June of 2022. Initial reports were that Kelly joined the show on contract and then as of June 2025 went on recurring status with the show per his choice.

Do you see a world where GH is writing out Molly and Cody? Would you be sad to see Kristen and Josh exit the soap opera? If this is not what is going on, is this just a plot point for some other story that is upcoming? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.

THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS: Adam Delivers Sally’s Baby as Billy Reels from Jill’s Health Crisis in Tearjerker Episode

Published

By

Billy, Sally and Adam

The Tuesday, October 20 episode saw The Young and the Restless deliver some deeply-poignant moments in the aftermath of Billy (Jason Thompson) and Sally’s (Courtney Hope) wedding.

The scenes which will be talked about for some time to come, because of how they can impact longterm story, had Adam (Mark Grossman) being the one to deliver Billy and Sally’s baby, while Billy was gut-punched by a phone call from Snapper Foster that Jill had suffered a heart attack in London.

In story, while up in Sally’s room at the GCAC, wishing his ex all the happiness, (because Adam and Billy have no love lost, and he didn’t want to cause waves), Sally’s water broke. In true soapy fashion, all phones were dead. Sally’s phone was missing because it was with Audra (Zuleyka Silver), Adam’s battery ran out etc. Prior to that, Adam did try to call Billy, but Billy did not pick up his calls, as he was with Cane (Billy Flynn) coming to terms with the news on Jill.

TORN BETWEEN RUNNING TO HIS MOTHER OR HIS NEW WIFE AND BABY

Now in the perfect storm of circumstances, Adam is the one to help Sally deliver her baby when she begged him to stay with er screaming, “Please don’t make me do this alone!” Adam reminded Sally that he’d already delivered a baby twice before. She assured him that it will be OK, and not to be scared, because this isn’t the same set of circumstances when she lost their daughter, Ava, during childbirth.

Downstairs, Billy is in tears over his mother. So too is Cane. Cane speaks to Jill on the phone when Snapper holds the phone to her while at her hospital bed. He tells her he loves her. Billy cannot bring himself to talk to his mom.

Cane decides he will go to London. Billy doesn’t know what to do with a new wife and a baby on the way. It’s clear how much losing Jill would devastate Billy. Cane tells Lily (Christel Khalil) what has happened to Jill, and Billy informs Jack (Peter Bergman) before he tries to find his bride who is upstairs in her room.

A NEW ABBOTT

Back in Sally’s room, eventually Adam asks Sally (who is deep in labor), if she thought she was having a girl or boy, and she said a boy. But then, Adam introduced her to her “beautiful, perfect baby girl.” It was a moment laced with so much history for Adam and Sally and Adam and Billy, when you think of the deaths of Ava and Deliah.

As Sally cradled her newborn little bundle of joy, Adam went to go get Billy at her request, and as he made his way to the door, Billy was standing there. Billy is stunned to see his rival standing, but then Sally tells Billy to meet his daughter!

Billy rushes to the bedside to be my his new wife and daughter, with the heartbreaking final shot of Adam emotionally overcome thinking of the baby he has lost with Sally. and how he wishes things could have turned out differently in a bittersweet moment.

EMOTIONAL PERFORMANCES

The episode was laced with hankie-inducing moments from Jason Thompson, Courtney Hope, Mark Grossman and Billy Flynn, who each delivered, to bring this story so much heart and history.  There is plenty of Emmy material within for next year for these four.

You can check out the final moments of yesterday’s episode where Billy meets his daughter for the first time, followed by the final shot of Adam at the door below, followed by our live chat replay with Y&R stars, Jason Thompson and Courtney Hope which streamed immediately after this episode aired in all timezones on the Michael Fairman Channel.

Now let us know, did you reach for the hankies during the episode? Did you like that Adam was the one to deliver Sally’s baby? Do you think something more will happen with Jill? Share your reactions in the comment section.

Steffy and Finn

On the Monday, October 19 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, after Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) stammering around and trying to find a way to couch her lie to her husband, Finn (Tanner Novlan), she finally admits what she has been dreading telling him.

But not before, Finn and Steffy rehash Monaco, Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown), and how it was turning point in their lives (that’s an understatement) with Finn reiterating, “Our marriage is precious. What we have is pure and true.”

Finn promises Sheila is out of their lives for good, and Steffy chokes back tears saying how she wished she hadn’t removed her ring and hightailed it out of Monaco. She says she wishes she could take that back, but she can’t.

Steffy tells Finn she has a lot to say. Finn tells her there is nothing they can’t overcome. Steffy says she made a significant decision while he was away. She goes to to say what a great friend Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) has been to her. Finn asks if Daphne and Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) are still interviewing to find a surrogate? Steffy says they found someone and the process has begun, and its “me.”

Finn gulps, “What do you mean it’s you?” Steffy eeks out of her mouth, “I agreed to be Daphne and Carter’s surrogate.” Finn, who is a doctor no less says, “I don’t understand!” He explains he knows there is a list of medical and legal hurdles someone has to go through before a woman can become a surrogate for a couple. He also tells Steffy he knows she could never carry a child and give it up.

Next, Finn tells Steffy she’s wonderful for considering to do this for Carter and Daphne, but she’ll have to tell them no. Steffy says it’s too late. That while he was out of town they went ahead with the procedure. Finn asks, “What procedure?” Steffy responds, “The fertilization of the eggs.” Finn learns they used Steffy’s frozen eggs and did the implantation and loses it!

“I can’t believe you went and did that! This isn’t something a wife does when their husband is out of town on a business trip,” hollers Finn. He cannot believe what he is hearing and that his wife just went and did this without him! He pushes back on Steffy. demanding answers, “There’s more going on here. What is it? Steffy? Tell me!” We fade to black.

You can check out the pivotal scene between Finn and Steffy below.

Now weigh-in: are you glad Finn is as of now not being a doofus? That he is pushy back on Steffy? Do you think Steffy will continue with this lie or admit she slept with Carter and became pregnant? Either way, would Finn stay with his wife while she became a surrogate for Carter and Daphne? Let us know in the comment section.
