On the Thursday, March 7th episode of The Young and the Restless, Victoria (Amelia Heinle) and Victor (Eric Braeden) watch in horror from the car as Victoria’s house is burning to the ground. Jordan (Colleen Zenk) wanted to torch both Victoria and Claire (Hayley Erin) in it.

An emotional Victoria is devastated by seeing all of her belongings and the home she loved burned to a crisp. Back at the Newman living room, Nikki (Melody Thomas Scot is shaking needing to take a drink and begs Claire to talk her down. Claire tells her a story involving a child, and then the two women somehow come to a realization that when Claire is emotionally ready maybe she can find some kind of career working with children … even though she now has a prison rap sheet!

Victoria and Victor come home.Nikki is irate that Jordan must be stopped, and blurts out, “That woman is despicable! I want to tear her limb from limb! She deserves to rot in hell!” Claire feels sure that her aunt is desperate and because of it is acting out. She adds, that Jordan has nothing else to lose which means she is more dangerous than ever, but also she is getting very sloppy.

After they all mull over how to stop Jordan, Victor (Eric Braeden) pipes up that he needs to convince Jordan to meet with him, because he is certain she won’t be able to get the upper hand with him. Famous last words! This is Jordan we’re talking about.

Meanwhile, Abby (Melissa Ordway) comes to the GCAC to see Tucker (Trevor St. John) and she lit into him for what he has done to her mother, Ashley (Eileen Davidson) and gives him a stern warning. At the same time, at the Abbott mansion, Ashley is up late and so is Jack and the two talk about her mental state, where he suggests she call her therapist overseas since it’s morning there. Ashley thinks that it’s a great idea. Once alone, Ashley begins to place the call, but then hears voices in her head, and the controlling part of Ashley’s personality takes over. Isn’t this a DID story, or is this not?

At the end of the episode, Ashley comes to the GCAC to see Tucker. She texts him from downstairs telling him she needs to see him ASAP. As the episode comes to a conclusion, a smug look comes over Ashley’s face as she waits at the bottom of the staircase.

So, are you ready for Jordan to get her comeuppance? Do you think Victor can put an end to Jordan’s reign of terror? What do you think is happening to Ashley? Comment below.

House burning seems to be a recent trend in daytime. Victoria can contact Anna Devane or Julie Williams if she needs to commiserate.

Jordan smacks of Sheila 2.0 and I still feel emotionally detached from. The new storyline, including the Clare is Victoria and Cole’s not-dead daughter, just came out of nowhere with no buildup or suspense, and stakes so implausible. Actors seem to be doing well but it feels forced and crafted, not organic.

In total agreement!

Another set destroyed by Y and R – I guess no soap character needs a home…

I remember in the beginning when she and Billy moved in there after they got married, it was supposed to be in the likeness of the house from the old show Father Knows Best.

Id agree Jordan is a bit Sheila-ish but Colleen Zenk is head and shoulders above what’s her name who plays Sheila. Kimber something.

What is that old saying..” any publicity good or bad, is good publicity ” so you should at least get her name right even just to slag her off…

Put an end to this farce!! Please!! Between the women going berserk ( Ashley, Cricket, Phyllis…) and crazy Jordan; it’s beginning to look like The Twilight Zone.

I cannot stand Phyllis! She’s just plain awful, and now Lily is going to return to see the “happy reconciled family” and it is absolutely painful to watch.

I think Lily is lucky to be rid of Daniel, he’s an overgrown kid and Lily should have a real man. Same with his father Danny that keeps those women fighting over him and that black shoe polish he puts all over his hair makes him look ridiculous with that old face, yuk.

I don’t know what happened, Violet—my comment posted too soon. I must have done something—I finally get a minute to myself—and I always try to hurry. LOL.
I was saying that the writers are trying to make Daniel look like a real man—-he is not worth Lily’s time and effort. Also, do you think he’s subconsciously trying to make his daughter happy by reuniting with her mother? Happy family unit?
It’s weird how these women fight over Danny and Daniel. —Especially Daniel and his passé music—reminds me of Madonna, whom I went to see in the city—-what a nightmare. LOL.

I don’t know about Daniel and Heather reuniting but I wouldn’t mind if they just all went back to Portugal or wherever they came from. There is no real story with them.

I love Phyllis because I love Michelle Stafford—But I must agree with you here. Phyllis is having some kind of breakdown—just like Ashley. What’s with these writers?
Cricket is another story—I’ve been watching since I was four ( late 80’s) with my grandmother. She has always made me cringe—so on my nerves —no spark; no personality—all she does is whine. How does a woman , whose marriage just dissolved, suddenly realize Danny is the IT guy? ( Ewww).

Re, your last question, I can’t understand it either, especially after being with a real man like Paul. To me Danny is a nice guy but just this has-been guy that was a rage years ago, pitting Cricket and Phyllis against each other, years ago maybe but now, it’s just stupid and makes them all look foolish.

Tell me about it, Violet. Talk about reviving the dead ( your comment on GH site—LOL).
I don’t think anyone wants to see the infantile behavior.—-been there done that. Why try to rejuvenate these people by giving them adolescent roles? They do look foolish—mooning over Danny.; whose ego is almost as big as his head.

Celia, I make a lot of crazy comments, which one ” on GH” are you referring to?

LOL, Violet—The comment about Carly’s stomping waking the dead.—Which another poster replied—-paraphrasing—t”she actually did—Jason!!”— LOL-I laughed so hard, the kids thought I was nuts.

Had not seen that set in how many years??? When I do think of it only reminds me of Billy Miller makes me sad

They need to get her to a hypnotist to call out the other personality.

Steffy and Carter

After taking a second pregnancy test on the Friday, September 12 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) freaks out ever more when it come back positive, too. Leading her to shriek, multiple times over, “Oh my God! Oh my God! I’m pregnant!”

As previously reported, reps for The Bold and the Beautiful have already confirmed that in the story, the baby Steffy is carrying is Carter’s (Lawrence Saint-Victor) which kicks-off their 40th season of storytelling.

On Friday’s episode, Carter gets a text from his wife, Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) telling him she wants to talk more about surrogacy later, since she cannot carry Carter’s child, and the couple was exploring ways for them to have a baby. Suddenly, Carter flashes back to waking up next to Steffy on the couch in the office after they had sex the night before in their drunken stupor.

CARTER DEVISES A PLAN

Then, Steffy comes whirling into the office demanding to talk to Carter right away. Steffy is informing Carter that she has to tell Finn (Tanner Novlan) about their night together more than ever! A confused Carter asked her what changed, when they agreed to keep their one night together a secret? Carter tells her if she reveals what happened between them, it will tear about all of their lives.

Carter thinks nothing will come of their “mistake” if they keep their mouth shut. Steffy responds, “You’re wrong.” She goes on to explain that she’s pregnant! That declaration stuns Carter and we fade to black.

However, it was the preview for the action next week on The Bold and the Beautiful, that aired at the end of Friday’s episode and is now all over B&B’s social media that is the real tell-tale sign of where this story is heading.

B&B SPOILERS

In a scene airing next week, Carter says to Steffy, “I have a way out of the situation for all of us!” This comes on the heels of Daphne telling Carter she wishes she knew someone who would be their surrogate. So, putting two and two together, it looks like Carter will come up with the idea to pass Steffy and his baby off as the surrogate child of Carter and Daphne.

Look no further than the official B&B spoilers for episodes airing Monday, September 14- Friday, September 18 and the teaser lines of the Steffy/Carter baby drama to back that up below.

Monday, September 14, Steffy’s news complicates things even more with Carter, while on Tuesday, September 15, 2026  Daphne is hopeful she and Carter will be able to find a surrogate and Carter rushes to stop Steffy. On Wednesday, September 16, Carter makes a passionate plea. and by Thursday, September 17, Daphne can’t believe Carter’s suggestion. Then come Cliffhanger Friday, September 18, Steffy is caught off guard.

So, what do you think how it look to be Carter who originated plan to keep the truth from ever coming out, that he and Steffy had sex, and the best way to do this is for Steffy to be the surrogate for Carter and Daphne’s child? How complicated will the cover-up eventually get? Will Steffy fall in love with the baby making this whole thing untenable for her?

Jason and Britt

On the Friday, September 11 episode of General Hospital, Jason (Steve Burton) and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship becomes strained to potentially the point of no return.

Things take a turn when an unglued Britt having been traumatized by almost being killed by Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) asks Jason to back her up with the PCPD when she reports Anna for attempted murder.

However, Jason told Britt, he can’t. Jason shares that he does not believe Anna would have gone through with shooting her. Therefore, Britt was not in any real imminent danger. Britt is flabbergasted and hurt that Jason is refusing to tell the police what he actually witnessed for himself on Mount Emerson.

BRITT WANTS BACK UP FROM JASON

Jason counters that he can’t believe that Britt would want Anna punished. or sent to prison, or a mental facility after the trauma she endured while being locked up and mentally tortured while at Wyndemere.

He asks Britt, “How could you even say that you want her locked up or prosecuted for what she did when you knew she was being held prisoner and you did nothing to save her?” Britt is stunned by Jason’s response.

Coming up, official General Hospital spoilers share that on the upcoming Monday, September 14 episode, Jason confides in Carly (Laura Wright), while Britt is stung. In the video preview that aired at the end of the Friday, September 11 episode for this coming Monday, Britt says to Jason, “You don’t believe me. Do you?”

General Hospital head scribes, Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte previously teased in their fall preview of the soap, “Britt and Jason have come a long way and fought a lot of enemies to be together. But the most stubborn obstacle to their happiness isn’t without, it’s within. Decisions Britt made to stay alive while under Cullum’s thumb will come back to haunt her and may prove too difficult for this unlikely couple to survive.”

So, what do you think will happen? Will Jason and Britt break-up over Britt’s lies and Jason’s unwillingness to report Anna’s crime against her? Do you want Jason and Britt to go their separate ways? If they do, will Britt become romantically involved with Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) ? If so, who do you pair Jason with? Anyone? Weigh-in via the comment section.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Steffy is Shaken to the Core, ‘Oh My God! I’m Pregnant!’

Steffy

On today’s Thursday, September 10 episode of The Bold and the Beautiful, Steffy Forrester (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) discovers she’s pregnant, after taking a home pregnancy test, that will launch a new story arc that will remain front and center for the show in the months ahead.

The life-changing story kicks off the B&B’s 40th season which officially began on September 8. In it, Carter Walton (Lawrence Saint-Victor) is the biological father of Steffy’s unborn child from their drunken night together when both endured turbulent times in their marriages.

Previously, Carter had trouble with Daphne (Murielle Hilaire), when she initially walked out on him, because she could not carrying his child. Meanwhile, Steffy broke up with Finn (Tanner Novlan) while in Monaco over Finn’s mother Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) showing up, who once tried to kill her.

Fast-forward, Carter and Steffy made a pact that no one will ever need to know about their drunken night together, but now with Steffy becoming pregnant it changes everything. Making matters all the worse, Daphne views Steffy as her best friend, in fact, Daphne and Carter have been talking about having a child via surrogacy. While Finn had showed the couple how to start the process of finding a surrogate, Daphne felt just choosing a random person to carry Carter’s child is so impersonal. She would rather have it be someone she knows.

It does not take a scientist to predict … that somehow Steffy will carry the baby pretending to be the surrogate, when she its biological mother, and along the way, the questions become, does she keep the whole thing somehow a secret to herself? Doe Carter find out at some point? Stay tuned to see how this story reveals itself.

At its root, this is a major storyline for Wood, who has already won three Daytime Emmy Lead Actress Awards in her 18 years with The Bold and the Beautiful. In that time, her character of Steffy has experienced multiple pregnancies, given birth to two children, Kelly with Liam (Scott Clifton) as the father, and Hayes with Finn as the father, and endured a miscarriage.

So, what did you think of Steffy getting confirmation she is pregnant and looking mortified when she found out? What will she do next? Will she tell Carter? Will Daphne come to Steffy to ask her to be her surrogate, which Steffy may think will be the answers to her prayers, only for the truth to come out later, or falling in love with the baby since its hers to be begin with? Share your thoughts and theories for this major story for Jacqueline MacInnes Wood, via the comment section.
