The Young and the Restless left viewers during the Christmas break with some time to ponder on just what will happen after Thursday’s episode of the top-rated CBS daytime drama in climatic scenes between Aunt Jordan (Colleen Zenk) and Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott).

In the plot twist, Jordan has apparently kidnapped Claire (Hayley Erin), and is using it as leverage against Nikki who appears to be the twisted Aunt’s ultimate victim. Cole (J. Eddie Peck) and Victoria (Amelia Heinle) previously ran a DNA test that they believe proves Claire is their baby who they believed died, but was stolen at birth by Aunt Jordan, who they named “Eve”.

Meanwhile, Aunt Jordan is continuing to drive Nikki to drink (and don’t we love MTS portrayal of a boozing Nikki?). Now, she really rattles a drunken Nikki with her latest phone call, in which she tells her to listen up, because she has Claire and she will give her back in exchange for Nikki. When Jordan predicts that Nikki is about to take another drink, Nikki says, “Yeah, I’ve been drinking. I’m drunk right now. What’s it to ya?” Best line of the week!

Coming up, a drunken Nikki enters a a worn down shack, while slurring her words and calls out, “Jordan?” Next, Jordan, appears holding a gun and says, “Hello Nikki! I’m so glad you could make it.”

The official teasers for the Tuesday, December 26th episode of Y&R shares, “Nikki faces her demons and confronts Jordan in an ultimate showdown.”

So, how do you think this ultimate showdown will wind up? Will Victor save Nikki? Will Jordan get killed? Will Jordan escape? Will Nikki wind up in dire medical straits from consuming too much booze? Let us know your theories, and if you are enjoying the scenes thus far between soap vets, Colleen Zenk and Melody Thomas Scott via the comment section below.

Ok, maybe I am in the minority, but I don’t like a drunken Nikki. Melody T. Scott is talented enif to handle anything that is thrown at her. Why drum up the same ole storyline? Good to see Colleen Zenk though!

Well, this story line is turning out to be a flop. Ratings ticked up a few weeks back, and are now going down weekly. Poorly constructed story. Not that any of the storylines have me wanting more, but this was the story that Griffith was hoping to make a name for himself, and it’s just stupid. Again, why anyone would continually answer calls from “unknown” is beyond me. Please don’t say that the alcohol has fogged up Nikki’s mind. Katherine taught her better than this.

Stupid story line. I don’ like it at all. How long will this be dragged out?

What is Jordan’s obsession with Nikki? Why is she so hell-bent on ruining her life? It can’t just be revenger for Eve, because otherwise her vendetta should be targeted against Victor. This feel much more personal, so I’m hoping there will be a twist that makes this story make more sense.

When your smartphone rings and it says “Unknown caller”, YOU DON’T HAVE TO ANSWER THE PHONE!!!

What are the writers not thinking. To bring Colleen Zenk to Young and Restless for this stupid story line is laughable.

I think for once they used their heads. COLLEEN is the shot in the arm this show has needed for years and Ms. Zenk is providing that admirably , just as they shot Nicki up with her Vodka drip , who took that ball and is running with it until she ultimately carries it over the finish line, which I have no doubts she will.These two women are fantastic!

You did it Nickii, I knew you would! There was no disappointment in your acting, the finesse you used to get to your goal was fantastic and so rewarding, seeing you rescue your granddaughter and ” slay the dragon”.They will probably put Jordan in a vicility for the criminally insane. It’s just too bad that Victoria didn’t get to see her mother in action.

So much was made of Colleen Zenk’s return to daytime – but she has little if any air time other than the hostage scene at her house, after that, she walked into a room once in a while, never said a word, put on a blond wig, we don’t see her “take” her “daughter” from the room and she sends text calls.
Memo to retired actors – don’t expect much air time if they bring you to Y and R – just ask “Josh Lewis”.

I don’t even want Adam and Sally back together I have lost interest they should not have let it go on this long I think Adam and Sally should get new love interest Mark and Courtney broke up that’s got to awkward btw them I think the writers should pair them up with somebody else

Published

By

CBS has released its first promo for the upcoming crossover event between Beyond the Gates and The Young and the Restless. The four-episode multi-arc story will begin next week on Tuesday, June 9 and run through the rest of the week with a dramatic cliffhanger on Friday, June 12.

Viewers can now get their first glimpse of the storyline that will unfold. The episodes were taped earlier this year when the six participating cast members from Y&R traveled from Los Angeles to Atlanta where Beyond the Gates tapes all of its show from Assembly Studios.

In the video teaser, a tornado rips through Barrington Country and smack dab at the Fairmont Crest Country Club in the middle of the political fundraiser for Congressman Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon), putting major characters in peril.

VERNON AND VICTOR OLD FRIENDS

As the story unfolds, longtime friends and patriarchs Vernon Dupree (Clifton Davis) and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) come together for this special event. Victor has backed Vernon’s political campaigns over the years, while Vernon has championed legislation which benefitted Newman Enterprises, The two titans have built a longtime alliance built on loyalty, influence, and mutual gain.

Vernon has asked Victor to serve as the keynote speaker at his grandson’s fundraiser, and seen in the promo, he greets the mighty Victor Newman at a helicopter pad to whisk him away in a limo to Fairmont Crest.

None other than Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) and Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) arrive at Fairmont Crest and run into Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) and Andre Richardson (Sean Freeman). Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) is also in tow and is revealed as a longtime friend of Martin’s from their college days.

UNEXPECTED ALLIANCES

In the steamy moment from the promo, it looks like Kyle and Hayley (Marguita Goings) end up making out. Could this be the crossover romance we never know we needed? But what happens if the wrong person sees them locking lips? Then, it appears that Bill (Timon Kyle Durrett) and Dani will be trapped together due to the tornado, will this be a turning point for the exes? The event is filled with a room full of reporters, who are itching for a scandal. What will they dig up before and after the rubble from the tornado?

DANGER LURKS AT FAIRMONT CREST

In addition, an uninvited guest makes their way into the fundraiser, but it’s not someone viewers might expect! Genoa City’s Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) and Abby Newmanv (Melissa Ordway) are also attending the political fundraiser and get into the thick of the action.

Beyond the Gates executive producer Sheila Ducksworth teased to TV Insider, on what viewers are about to see “What happens in these episodes is so compelling, and then what happens as a result of what happens in these episodes is epic. That is all I can say. It is epic.”

Ducksworth, along with series cast members: Tamara Tunie (Anita Dupree), Clifton Davis, and Sean Freeman, also talked about the upcoming episodes when they visited the Michael Fairman Channel for a livestream chat, where Clifton Davis exclaimed, “We’ve got dynamite in the can,” referencing the banked episodes that soap fans are about to see unfold.

Take a look at the Beyond the Gates and The Young and the Restless crossover event promo below.

Now let us know, what do you think of Kyle and Hayley making out? Do you think Bill and Dani will do the same? What will be the shocking ramifications when all is said and done? Weigh-in via the comment section.

GENERAL HOSPITAL Spoilers Promo: Chase and Willow Have a Close Encounter and Tracy Gets an Eyeful

Published

By

General Hospital has dropped its spoilers video and weekly promo for the week of June 1-5 entitled “Crossed Lines.”

From the looks of it, Chase (Josh Swickard) and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), who happen to be in swimsuits and at the Quartermaine boathouse appear to have a private moment when Willow is seen with her hand on the cop’s shoulder. However, at that exact same moment, who should walk by … Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot)!

What will Tracy do with the intel? Inform her granddaughter Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) and/or grandson Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson)? Meanwhile, Michael has been determined to exploit Willow’s closeness with her ex, Chase, to gain the upper hand on her, all in an effort to, as Michael tells Jacinda (Paige Herschell) in the promo, “They’ll cross the line and when they do, we’ll blow the whole thing wide open.”

TAKING DOWN SIDWELL

In addition, Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Laura (Genie Francis) recruit Lucas (Van Hansis) to help them put an end to Jenz Sidwell’s (Carlo Rota) chokehold on them and Port Charles. Sonny tells Lucas, “We need your help. We’re gonna stop Sidwell.”

That may prove more difficult than it seems, when Sidwell now has the idea that it was Lucas who murdered his son, Marco. After all, Lucas is living at Wyndemere right under Sidwell’s nose, plus Pascal (Marc Forget) may be the key to Sonny’s plan.

CARLY REALIZES JOSSLYN WAS KIDNAPPED

Finally! Carly (Laura Wright) is figuring things out that her daughter Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) has been kidnapped. Carly is shown saying, “Josslyn would never leave without saying good-bye. Someone took her!”

At the same time, Josslyn is trying to free herself from the secret room at Wyndemere where Cassius (Ryan Paevey) stashed her. It looks like she may be close to breaking free when she is able to pry the door somewhat open!

Now below, check out the official ABC and General Hospital promo for the action this week in Port Charles. And in case you missed it, check out the complete General Hospital spoilers for episodes airing today through Friday here.
