As the weekend began, The Bold and the Beautiful wrapped its 38-year run at its home at Television City in West Hollywood, California. Now the series will be on a summer break while at that time it will move all of its sets and get situated at its new digs as previously reported at the Sunset Las Palmas Studios in Hollywood.

Taping of all-new episodes of B&B is currently set for August 19th. On Friday, as the cast and crew’s time came to an end at its home away from home, many of its stars including Kimberlin Brown (Sheila) and Sean Kanan (Deacon) took to their Instagram accounts to document their thoughts at packing up their dressing rooms and leaving a place that held so much history for them.

B&B’s Supervising Producer, Casey Kasprzyk was filmed in the control booth by longtime star, Don Diamont (Bill Spencer).  Addressing the cast and crew for one last time at their now former studios, Kaspryzk said, “Before we wrap, I’d just like to say for 38 years the Bell family chose Television City stage 31, to be the home for The Bold and the Beautiful. That has been the home for countless cast and crew members. During that time, 9,620 episodes have been produced. None of that would’ve been accomplished without the dedication and commitment to excellence that everyone on stage 31 brings day in and day out. Now our home is changing, but the show goes on. Thank you everyone, and thank you. Stage 31, you taught me so much. I’ll miss you.”

Kimberlin Brown shared in her post, “Yesterday was our last day filming at the old CBS Studios. We say goodbye to stage 31 and look forward to our new home at Sunset Las Palmas Studios.” Before that in a video post, Brown related, “The end of an era. Today we wrapped The Bold and the Beautiful on stage 31 for the last time. Bittersweet for me, but I was blessed to work with such a talented amazing group of people. On to the future.”

In the post accompanied the video, Casey expressed, “Today marks the end of an era as we say goodbye to Television City’s Stage 31, and embrace a new adventure at Sunset Las Palmas Studios ✨ As we sign off from the control booth… here’s to bold beginnings and beautiful memories.”

Sean Kanan shared in his video, “Hey guys, well a few minutes ago I had the honor of filming the final scene of The Bold and the Beautiful on stage 31 that we are filming here at Television City. I started in The Bold and the Beautiful in 2000. This is my 25th year playing Deacon Sharpe. It started with a meeting with Bradley Bell (executive producer and head writer, B&B) that I never thought would become one of the most important experiences, not only for me professionally, but in my life. It’s an amazing experience been here at Television City. There is so much incredible history. And now we are moving to a new studio and we are so committed to bringing everyone a great story and giving 100% all the time. But just for today it’s pretty good ”

Previously, Brad Bell said on the move,  “It’s been an extraordinary 38 years at Television City, where we have produced over 9,600 episodes of The Bold and the Beautiful. As we look ahead, we’re excited to begin this next chapter at Sunset Las Palmas Studios —continuing our production in the heart of Hollywood and the great state of California.”

The Bold and the Beautiful was among a handful of shows filming at Television City after CBS Corp. sold the studio complex to Hackman Capital Partners in 2019. The Young and the Restless is still taping there, which breaks up, for the time being, the sister soaps from being across the hall from one another.

Understand working in the same place for nearly 38 years and then leave/retire from it. But the memories there will last a lifetime. Good luck with the new location in Hollywood. But work on your writing next year as B&B was locked out for Best Daytime Drama for 2024.

Congratulations on an amazing 38 years of filming at television city. That’s quite an accomplishment. If the walls could talk. All of you have an awesome new adventure at your new home. I’m sure that you will have many wonderful experiences together in your new home. Keep doing what you’re doing. We will still have you in our homes every day.

I stopped watching The Bold and the Beautiful in 2019, due to poor production decisions and writing, but it is definitely a kicker to know that they are exiting Television City after over 38 years at that location.

Judging from John McCook’s post on Instagram, they’re rebuilding and expanding on some sets (which I do think they should do; bring back the original Forrester Creations and mansion sets, etc.), so it appears the studio space they have at Sunset Las Palmas Studios might be slightly bigger than they’ve had at Television City.

It will be interesting to see, visually, what a Bell soap (is it really, anymore?) looks like outside of Television City. Wishing them the best of luck in this new adventure.

How are they going to move all the sets and they will still look the same in the new studio? Sounds like a lot of work to do in a few weeks. Hope they get it done and wonder if anything will look different for season 39

Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun Written Out of The Young and the Restless

Published

By

It looks like the current run of Lucas Adams (Noah) and Tamara Braun (Sienna) on The Young and the Restless is coming to an end, after the Monday, August 3 edition of the CBS daytime drama revealed that Noah and Sienna are leaving Genoa City and heading back to Los Angeles.

In the storyline, Noah informed his mother, Sharon (Sharon Case) and half-sister Mariah (Camryn Grimes) that he and Sienna made the decision to move back to the West Coast to put distance between themselves and Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). Although Noah did not say it was a permanent move, he did assure his mom that once Matt is hopefully gone from Genoa City they could return.

However, as previewed already on the video teaser for this week’s episodes of Y&R (see below), it appears Noah left Genoa City’s The Shadow Room to be run by a returning Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian). So with that, coupled with today’s episode, it would appear the move could wind up being more permanent.

COMINGS AND GOINGS

Adams made his Y&R debut on November 4, 2025 as the successor to Rory Gibson who last played Noah on-screen in April of 2023. Earlier in 2025, Gibson took over the role of Michael Corinthos on Genera Hospital replacing Chad Duell, who stepped away from the part after 15 years.

Braun who played Adam’s mother on Days of Our Lives when she was Ava Vitali and he was Tripp Dalton, first appeared on Y&R back on October 14, 2025, where we soon learned she had become Noah’s lover as the new character, Sienna Bacall.  It should be noted, Adams was on contract with the number #1 soap, while Braun has been on recurring status.

With Josh Griffith now exited as head writer of The Young and the Restless, and the newly announced co-head writing team of Jamey Giddens and Dan O’Connor having taken his place and starting their new tenure this week, it will be interesting to see how the duo resets the show, and if a Noah and Sienna return is in the cards for the future or not.

So, what do you think about the seeming departures of Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun from The Young and the Restless? Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, check out our recent live chat with Tamara and Lucas on the Michael Fairman Channel.

Rosie O’Donnell Says She Will Return to ‘The View’ During its Season 30

Rosie O'Donnell

Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.

The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.

The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW

As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.

However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.

O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”

Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”

You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.

Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.
