For the first time since March of 2017, CBS’ The Bold and the Beautiful premiered a new opening sequence at the top of Thursday’s episode.
In it, viewers can see some of the more recent additions to the talented cast including: Ingo Rademacher (Thorne), Nia Sioux (Emma), Adain Bradley (Alexander) and Annika Noelle (Hope), in addition to some new images of the other cast members.
You can catch it online by checking out yesterday’s episode of B&B at CBS.com
The show took to its Twitter account and let fans in on the updated opening stating: “Attention all #BoldandBeautiful fans! Today we debut our updated main titles. Only on @CBSDaytime #Gorgeous #Hot #Sexy #Bold #Beautiful @BandB_CBS”
So, what do you think of the updated opening titles of B&B? Do you think that each soap opera should be constantly refreshing their openings when new characters are added?
Which opening title sequence of the soaps,is still your favorite? Let us know via the comment section below.
I think it’s good to have continually updated opening sequences that feature the current cast. However, in the case of B&B they should just show 30 consecutive photos of Scott Clifton as Liam and be done with it. He’s a good actor and I’m sure he’s a great guy but how many consecutive days has he been on now? The way he is written it’s no longer possible to see Liam as a romantic lead or a hopeless romantic in search of true love. He’s now an emotionally stunted, serial proposer who is impossible for any sane viewer to empathize with. Going by the show’s history, Liam’s real perfect match would be…..Brooke.
Was so nice seeing Sally back today. What a breath of fresh air, this fiery redhead is, especially after the insiped and clingy Hope and Steffy. Hope that Wyatt is man enough for her and his old man, just doesn’t decide he wants her too!
No, until the new character becomes a solid fan favorite after a year, stop switching it up. Now Xander Avant, likely a keeper! He completely fits in the world of this show. So, NO, we don’t need the whole opening switched up to see these people that have been on 5 times.
I watch Hollyoaks online which airs on the BBC. Anytime a character exits they’re normally out of the opening sequence within 2 days. If someone has “left” the show it’s normally a clue that they’re coming back if they are not cut from the opening.
What makes if more impressive is that in the opening sequence is normally video shots of 1 – 5 cast members meaning if there are multiple characters in the shots they’re not just having to cut the one person out, but also accommodate the remaining cast members.
I’m an American ‘Oakster, too and I love their opening credits!
I watched today’s episode while at home for lunch (Monday). These new interns are awful to watch. It’s cringe-worthy, along with nuHope.
dmrEvrything you said, in triplicate!
I still prefer the simplicity of just having a single shot, that of the hourglass (Days), city skyline (EON), clouds (SFT), ambulance to GH, ocean waves (Secret Storm), flowers (Love of Life), spinning globe (ATWT), etc. And I also love the accompanying theme songs. This would mean that outdated photos would not have to be updated all the time. Plus the fact that those openings take way, way too long.
But then, I am remembering shows of the past, and perhaps those “single shot” openings were just that: past and irrelevant today.
Wait Ingo Rademacher appeared on the opening credits on the day he started. And Annika Noelle appeared opening credits a few shows after she started.
Hate to admit it, but this was not the first time the opening was updated. Ingo was added shortly after his debut, and Annika Noelle already had one-shot in the opening after hers, too. Nia and Adain were the only two added, while Annika got a second shot. Those were the only changes that were made.

In shocking news to so many, This Is Us star Justin Hartley (Kevin Pearson) has filed for divorce after two years of marriage from former Days of our Lives’and Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause (Jordan Ridgeway).
According to court documents on Friday via TMZ, Justin is citing irreconcilable differences as the cause of the split.
The date of their separation is listed as July 8, 2019, which has perplexed those in the media when the pair have been seen together in recent months at Hollywood events and sharing posts of one another on their social media accounts.
Justin and Chrishell were last seen together in public last week on November 14th at a Hollywood Reporter-sponsored pre-Golden Globes party. Reps for both actors have you to share statements or make a comment.
Hartley and Stause tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at Malibu’s Calamigos Ranch back in October 28th, 201, which was four years to the day after they met.
As daytime fans know, Justin and Chrishell met when they were both part of the soap opera community. Justin was last on daytime as Adam Newman on The Young and the Restless. Hartley has one child, Isabella, from a previous marriage to another soap actress, Lindsay Korman, who he met when they both were on the defunct NBC soap Passions. Justin and Lindsay were married for 8 years.
We will update you as they warrant in this developing story. And on personal note: we wish nothing but the best for both Justin and Chrishell.
