Courtesy/TOLN
One Life to Live continued to tell the tale of the twisted relationship between two warring brothers, Todd Manning (Roger Howarth) and Victor Jr. (Trevor St. John) on Monday’s first episode of the week on Hulu and iTunes!
Something is amiss with Victor Jr.’s behavior, but he clearly has revenge on his mind when it comes to his dear brother, and what you see may astound you! Or, you might figure it is right in line with the Victor Jr. of old!
In addition, Dani comes home from the hospital having OD’d and puts a capitol “D” in dysfunctional family unit as Tea, Victor Jr, and Jack were supposed to celebrate Victor’s homecoming together, but that goes awry … meanwhile Todd is trying to apparently fight his feelings for Blair!
Watch today’s episode after the jump, and let us know if you are intrigued by what will happen next?
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 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.

Good show today, definitely intrigued.
Can’t help but think there has to be more to Natalie having been asleep at work. No clues to suggest such, but I wonder if maybe Natalie will soon find herself in a family way.
I loved David trying to interview Todd. He and Todd were terrific together. I’m very worried about Victor. He’s acting so strange and distant. Can’t wait until we learn the truth about his ordeal over the last year. I hope whatever happened has not damaged him beyond repair. Tea and Dani and Jack need him. I am definitely worried about the surveillance cameras in Tea’s house and in Shelter.
Matthew going back to work for Clint was a shock. Clint had the nerve to say to Matthew, “Don’t make me regret this.” I say to Clint, “Don’t you start manipulating and using Matthew for your own agenda like you did before.”
Can you tell? I’m loving this show.
OLTL is starting to get really good for me. I must admit I felt AMC had the stronger first week and OLTL was my favorite out of the two before they were cancelled. I think AMC focused more on the character relationships to help establish the new actors and they did a great job at it. They first two episodes of OLTL felt more plot driven but I guess it was easier for them to do that because a lot of the cast that was on before are back. Both shows will keep getting hotter as they go!
I agree with you. I liked AMC week 1 better but now OLTL is coming back strong this week. OLTL is still my fave! Still missing Rex, Roxy, and Jessica!
I love, that is all needed to say; I love it !!!!
One Life is awesome!
VICTOR OBVIOUSLY HAS PTSD AFTER BEING TORTURED,BEING SHOT TWICE ON HIS MOTHERS ORDERS,I BELIEVE THE TWINS S/L TIES IN WITH DORIANSI THINK VICTOR WAS TORTOURED BY THE BLACKSITES CIA
I HOPE TSJ STAYS ,OLTL NEEDS HIIM . I NEED HIM ,LOL
I definitely agree Victor is dealing with some heavy shit. But so weird that the show never dealt with what Todd went through. No one even considers that his defense was actually the truth, and you’d think we’d at least have been given ONE scene where Blair asks Todd about all those horrible years he was imprisoned. It was unforgivable that the former writing team did that, and I hope that the tale of 2 Todds perhaps brings this issue to light.. perhaps Todd will be the one who understands Vidtors actions more than anyone, even as Victor is intent on destroying Todd. i mean, who knows, but my point is that we’re defiintely getting to see how the losses affetcted Victor.
One Life has been excellent and I can’t wait to see what happens next! The show has a fresh edgy feeling to it now . I do miss seeing Roxy, Rex and Jessica and hope they are brought back on.
How do I get to watch the show I love oltl I am still watching the old ones please
is there a reason that today’s episode (5/7) is not available yet? Already watched AMC
Where’s today’s episode of One Life to LIve? Hulu hasn’t posted the episode. After seeing yesterday’s episode, I definitely want to see what happens next.
EVERY EPISODE OF BOTH SHOWS ARE THE SHIT! THANK YOU PP AND THOM AND SUSAN ((EVEN THO SHE IS NOT THERE ANYMORE THESE EPISODES SHE DID WORK ON)) THESE SHOWS JUST KEEP GETTING BETTER AND BETTER AND LOVE THE WAY YOU MOVE THE STORY LINE ALONG NOT DRAGGING THEM OUT! LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM BOTH!!!
So missing John McBain. Please recast soon. Perhaps someday Michael Easton will have a change of heart. He is so missed!
Yup.
Hmmm, where do I begin? I was soooooooooo sad when OLTL and AMC were cancelled by ABC. Angry too.Still boycott abc./disney. The only thing that helped with that was Roger H, kristen A and Michael E on GH…
I was thrilled , beyond thrilled, that prospect park came along and we now have OUR SHOWS BACK!!
Today is show 7, (and although I will watch and support for now, because I want this to work VERY MUCH)..I am not too excited about the direction of OLTL so far…Drugs, Bars, Thugs, LOTS OF CURSING…drinking..too much..over the top…and SHELTER seems to be the center of everything. I think it is a mistake,IMO…
I do get they want to attract a younger audience..(They always managed to do that for 40 years. ).but i think it is a mistake for the show to change characters as they did with Danny,9for one example) her whole attitude is so different..It’s not OLTL, it is very different…not the same program. I THINK THAT in itself is a huge mistake. OLTL was the best soap on Television..it really was..I hope they can get back to that..This NEW Version is not great so far…The only thing great about it..is Roger H and Trevor back on here…..with Bo, Nora… etc..I’m all for CUTTING edge new things…but this is way over the top to me…JMHO…
P.S) Also, There is an entire Audience of Young stay at home moms, who are/were faithful watchers….and Loved this show..ALOT. I think that the language and all of the non stop bar drinking, is not something most moms would have on during the day , while feeding babies and toddlers…etc.. I don’t think it is a program that is going to attract an entire group of those parents..who pass these shows on to their kids…to share with them..And It always was a Family type of show..even with many or the stories they covered…there was always a great balance…
I miss Ron Carlivati and Frank Valentini….They really understood these characters…200%
The emotion isn’t there this time around. Victor’s return was botched by a lack of screen time between him and Vicki IMHO. I too miss RC’s writing. He and Frank did understand the characters. You’re right.
Yes, TSJ showed up ALIVE, and barley a flinch from anyone. It was odd. Very odd. especially how OLTL left off a year ago, he was tied to the bed..and everyone thought he was dead…i hope they fix this.. ABC /disney had no idea how special THEIR SOAPS WERE, and are…I could never get into any other soaps,,,on any other channel and have watch for 40 years since I was in elementary school…
Thios past year, I have tried to get into DOOL, and Y&R..awful to me..I just can’t. No one writes like Ron C and Franks team….no one. They have turned GH around as well…I hope things change.I miss my OLTL! LOL!
Carol.. there is no daytime only watching..
the stay at home mom watching the soaps went out years ago..
even moms of the 80’s recorded and watched at night, usually..
Now the mom’s watch 24hrs a day..
And any mom with teenage kids will see it as a family type show with teen issues, cus that is exactly how the now teens are and talk 🙂 It would be no big deal and is no big deal to anyone these days 🙂
I do realize that most people dvr things, I do too. But there is still stay at home moms, who also watch at home, during the day…Hey, I’ve come full circle, I’ve been watching forever..and while I enjoy the dvr..for when I miss it..when I can..i can’t wait to watch at home..most days I plan to watch at 2 or 3…for gh…now I watch hulu soaps early each a.m…love to be able to watch anytime..it’s great.
Trust me, I am very much aware or the way teens talk, and most people. Doesn’t make it right.,..it isn’t. That’s the problem imo.
Same way I feel about all the violence in our every day life…kids killing kids, murders, robberies everyone is so desensitized , because it’s what they see in our news 24/7. death and murders have become THE NORM, all day long it is what we hear on tv…it is in films ,videos..24/7 Doesn’t make it right…
I can’t even stand to watch news anymore..current events, because it is nothing but murders, rapes, robberies, drug overdoses..constant. And we wonder why people run around killing over everything and anything..they are so desensitized to it all..THATS why it is no big deal. .Im not an old geezer…LOL..I’m a very young mis 50’s …! But Wrong is wrong..and they are destroying my oltl!! I want it back..!
Ps) also, I always felt that OLTL and AMC portrayed Teen issues, and Life issues very well……..all of these years….and they did it without the crudeness that PP is now showing.. I think they did a gREAT job…on life issues.. and teens…and many problems current in todays world…but they did it with CLASS, and humor…and tears…with VERY WELL WRITTEN SCRIPTS…no need to have every other word a curse..
Same way I feel about Great comics..they don’t need to curse…every other word in their shctik…….That’s just how I feel about it..
I don’t mind a curse here or there…but too much, just seems ridiculous….
I still believe that Todd had nothing to do with Victor’s shooting back in 2011. I think the tattoo holds the key to most of the problems between the brothers and possibly the Allison Perkins involvement. I’m biding my time.
I agree… and I keep thinking in the back of my mind…. clone.
how many “Victors” are there … really? I know of 2 that had that same face. One is Todd’s brother… and one was Mitch Laurence’s brother…. or were they?
Irene, Mitch and Victor Sr. were all very twisted individuals, moving people around like chess pieces.
did you ever see A.I.? there were many “David”s and they all thought they were David.
Just so happy they’re back
I keep getting the vibe that Victor isn’t going to have a very long stay. He is very distant and he hasn’t even visited Sam yet… Does Sam even know he’s alive? I don’t think Todd is dead, more than likely knocked out, but after all the fighting PP put up for him I don’t see him being killed off.
One Life To Live would be better off keeping Victor Lord, Jr. in the storyline. I hope Trevor St. John is kept on the show. He is really bringing it!
I don’t want Todd to die . I want him to remain as Todd Manning ! What is with that tattoo
on Victor jr. wrist! Something is quite different with him even his behavoir with Tea . Grabbing her arm the other day. Alicen did a number on Victor.. He seems more to himself (pre-ocuppied)…Something is a little off with him !
