The doctors warn Paul that he should prepare himself for the worst. Later, Patty panics when she realizes that Jack and Emily have written their own vows. Michael and Lauren prepare for a romantic Valentine’s Day spent all alone at home. Lauren apologizes for her behavior of late, and Michael tells her that it is already forgotten. Later, Lauren finds a way to make it up to Michael by seducing him. Victor surprises Nikki when he tells her that they are moving back into the ranch. Moments later they see a headline about Patty’s attempted suicide and Nikki decides to go see if Paul needs any support. Later, Nikki arrives at the hospital and finds Paul, who is relieved to see her. He tells her what happened to Patty and as they are talking, Emily hears them and realizes that she should be at her wedding. Meanwhile, Father Todd pronounces Jack and Patty husband and wife and Patty finally gets everything she has ever wanted. As the reception gets underway, all the guests offer Jack and “Emily” their congratulations and Billy and Ashley toast the bride and groom just as the doors open and in walks Victor with gift in hand. Victor’s presence at the wedding reception tries to push Jack’s buttons but Neil steps up and asks Victor to leave but before he does Traci asks to speak to him. Later, Traci reminds Victor of the gift she gave him and the fact that he is tarnishing that gift on this endless feud with Jack. At the tack house, Nick and Phyllis discuss dissolution of Victoria and J.T.’s marriage and realize that it had a lot to do with their lack of communication. Both Nick and Phyllis start to think of their own secrets. Later, Nick and Phyllis promise to never take what they have for granted but continue to keep secrets from one another. At the hospital, Emily listens as Nikki and Paul talk and she realizes that Paul thinks that she is Patty and that Patty must be with Jack. Later, Todd and Paul talk to Patty and Emily pleads with them in her mind to realize that she isn’t their sister. Meanwhile, finally alone, Patty and Jack find their way to the bedroom to make love. Chloe and Billy share a warm moment as they toast to Delia’s birthday. Nick finds a visitor’s pass from the Harvard Alumni Association in Phyllis’s purse and wonders what she was doing there. Meanwhile, Kay reprimands Victor for his actions at Jack’s wedding as Nikki arrives and tells them all about “Patty’s” predicament. Jack and Patty make love, Patty a little too desperately, as she silently cries on Jack’s chest. Meanwhile, Todd and Paul pray at Emily’s bedside.

Nick confronts Phyllis about hiding the fact that she was at Harvard from him. Phyllis tells Nick what she learned in Boston and Nick tells her to back off Adam, which forces him to tell her the entire plan that he concocted with Victor and Adam to take back control of Jabot. Phyllis promises to keep his secret but refuses to back off Adam. Father Todd brings Nina to see Paul at the hospital in the hopes of brightening his spirits. Meanwhile, Sharon and Adam run into Jack and Patty, both on their honeymoons. Later, Adam and Patty are caught off guard when they realize that Sharon and Jack have been to the island before, together. Meanwhile, Nina tries in vain to distract Paul with a movie.

Jana tries to tell Kevin what she learned about Ryder and Daisy’s connection but he doesn’t want to hear it. Meanwhile, after a run in with Daisy, Lauren decides it may be time for Daisy to move out. Later, Daisy makes casual conversation with Kevin while trying to find out what Jana is doing on her laptop. Michael and Lauren arrive at the coffeehouse to talk to the dean about getting Daisy back into the dorms and Daisy is surprised by the turn of events when she overhears their conversation. Victor finds Neil with Ashley at the ranch again and wonders what is going on between the two of them. In front of Victor, Neil makes it clear that they are friends but alone, Neil tells Ashley that his feelings for her are real. Later, Phyllis comes to the ranch and tells Neil and Ashley what she learned about Dr. Taylor in Boston and Ashley is stricken. As the movie progresses, Nina take Paul’s phone from him, and finally manages to get him to relax ever so slightly. Later, Paul, Nina and Todd are thrilled when it looks like “Patty” is going to make it. Jack and Sharon realize that they have both moved on, believing they have found their better halves. Outside, Patty tries to pretend to be Emily but unnerves Adam when she tells her that he isn’t a good man. Later, Sharon tells Adam that no matter how bad the truth may be she would rather know it than be in the dark. Jack is thrown off by “Emily’s” odd behavior when she doesn’t seem to remember the things she likes. Nick tells Victor that he had to spill the beans to Phyllis in order to keep their plan intact. Nick reminds Victor not to trust Adam. Meanwhile, Ashley starts to consider the possibility that Adam was the one tormenting her with Sabrina’s memory. At the coffeehouse, Kevin defends Daisy to Michael and Lauren because of his guilt over Ryder. Nearby, Daisy purposefully spills coffee on the floor and slips in it, but surprisingly, Lauren is unsympathetic. However, Daisy cries out in pain and Michael and Lauren realize they have to take her home. Later, Jana finds an article about Max, the boy from the picture with Ryder and Daisy and his disappearance. Adam and Sharon run into Phyllis as they arrive home from their honeymoon and Phyllis tells Adam that he should confess to Sharon what he was really doing with Dr. Taylor.

Lily and Billy officially welcome Malcolm to Restless Style after he signs his contract. Malcolm asks Lily if they can go back to her place to talk privately. At home, Malcolm asks Lily to work with him on his first photo essay for Restless Style by letting him tell her story. At first, Lily is uncomfortable, but Malcolm suggests they just take tests shots to show her just how strong she truly is. Later, Malcolm shoots Lily for the first time in a wig as they discuss Dru’s strength and how Lily shares that quality. As they talk, Lily realizes that she doesn’t need her wig and goes to take it off. Jana tells Noah, over the phone, that she is going to find out what Ryder and Daisy’s connection is to the boy, Max, and his disappearance. Moments later, Jana meets with Ryder and offers to buy him dinner, unaware that Kevin is making plans for a romantic evening. Later, Jana tells Kevin that she had dinner with Ryder and tries to tell him why but he doesn’t want to know. Tucker comes in and asks Kevin to find out who is trying to dig up information on him and his past dealings. Ashley wonders to Neil if it is possible that Adam was the one torturing her all along and plans to confront him when he returns home. Meanwhile, Sharon tries to ignore Phyllis as Phyllis pushes Adam, but Sharon is caught off guard when Phyllis tells her about Dr. Taylor sexually harassing his patients. Later, Sharon refuses to believe that Adam knew anything about who Taylor truly was and starts to think that Phyllis is just trying to get back at her. Ashley comes downstairs, and Adam immediately assumes that she wants to know about Phyllis’s accusations but instead Ashley demands to know if he tried to drive her insane. Tucker approaches Jill and Cane to find about if they know anything about who may be investigating him but Jill denies knowing anything. Cane encourages her to focus on finding a new job but Jill already has that covered. Later, Jill goes to see Billy at the magazine and suggests that he hire her and after some discussion, Billy agrees. Meanwhile, Cane comes home and finds Lily in tears and immediately assumes the worst, jumping all over Malcolm. Malcolm leaves and Lily tries to explain but Cane tells her that he doesn’t trust him. Ashley pushes Adam for the truth with Neil at her side as Sharon tries to defend him but Ashley refuses to waiver, knowing that Adam has been lying to her for months. Finally, Ashley tells Adam that it is time to move out of the ranch, immediately. Sharon’s faith in Adam starts to break when Phyllis points out that Ashley had no reason to be out to get Adam and even she has turned against him. Cane is caught off guard when Lily tells him how much Malcolm was helping her and that she was crying because she was happy. Later, Malcolm runs into Phyllis at the G.C.A.C. and they see Neil and Ashley together. He asks her how long Neil and Ashley have been dating and Phyllis isn’t sure but supports it considering what she is going through. Malcolm advises Phyllis to stay out of it but Phyllis is skeptical that there is anything Adam can really do to hurt her now. Upstairs, Adam and Sharon move into a suite, and Adam asks Sharon if anything that happened tonight changed the way she feels about him and she assures him that she still believes in him. Daisy realizes that her half of the photo is gone and she and Ryder put the pieces together that Jana has it. Jill brings Billy a new cover story idea on Tucker McCall and promises to dig up dirt on him, since he is so worried about someone looking into his background.

As Patty tries to lure Jack back to bed, he gets a fax and calls Ashley with information on Jabot and Victor. Meanwhile, Victor stops by the ranch to see Adam on the anniversary of Hope’s death and Ashley tells him that Adam and Sharon moved out. At the G.C.A.C., Sharon starts to realize that there may not be anything Adam can say to prove his innocence. Sharon begs Adam for the truth and it breaks his heart to do it but he forces himself to lie to her about everything that happen to Ashley last summer. Sharon believes him and as they are casually talking moments later, Adam realizes that today is the anniversary of Hope’s death. Daisy tells Ryder that their mother has a plan on how to handle Jana and the rest of the Fishers. At dinner, Jana and Kevin try to enjoy their evening but when Jana pushes Kevin too far about work things become tense. Later, Kevin surprises Jana with suite for the night but Jana feels like something is off between them and Kevin is determined to make it right. Victor presses Ashley to find out why Adam and Sharon moved out but Ashley is purposefully vague just as Abby arrives home. Abby is not happy to learn that Ashley has decided to give the ranch back to Victor. Later, as Adam is telling Sharon about his life growing up on the farm in Kansas, Victor arrives to see Adam. Alone, Victor tells Adam that he believes Hope would be proud of him. Meanwhile, Neil reminds Abby that home isn’t about a place but really about being with the people you love.

Jack wonders if “Emily’s” sudden change in behavior has anything to do with Patty. Patty works hard to stay in control and say the right things as she listens to Jack admit his guilt over hurting Patty but in the end, she wins him over and they go back to making love. Later, Patty overhears Jack on the phone with Ashley talking about Jabot and pushes Jack to tell her what is going on. Patty puts the pieces together and tells Jack they need to get back to Genoa City tonight. Jack is surprised and grateful when Patty supports him and tells him that he needs to take a stand against Victor. Jana receives a note from Kevin asking him to meet her at the Strand Theatre. Meanwhile, Kevin gets trapped in the elevator at the G.C.A.C. elevator. Later, Jana arrives at the theatre and finds a gift left for her, which she assumes is from Kevin, as Kevin continues to be stuck in the elevator trying not to panic. Jana opens the opens the gift and finds a picture of a birth announcement for twins – Ryder and Daisy. Moments later, in the elevator, the car jolts and plunges into darkness. Neil brings Abby home and Abby asks Ashley if it would be possibly to move into Brad’s house after the house is finished being rebuilt. Ashley likes the idea and agrees, thanking Neil for whatever he said to calm Abby down. Later, Ashley promises Neil that she will tell Victor the truth about Adam when the time is right. As Adam talks to Hope he wonders about the man he has become and tells her how much he truly loves Sharon but he doesn’t know if he can ever make things right. As he breaks down Sharon enters and wraps him in her arms. Adam blurts out the truth about his plan with Victor to Sharon and Sharon assures him that she is going to stand by his side, no matter what. Kevin finally gets out of the elevator and finds that Jana is gone from the club and wonders where she went. Meanwhile, Jana finally learns who Ryder and Daisy’s mother is just as she is attacked.

Kevin tells Michael and Lauren that Jana is missing and that he thinks something happened to her. Kevin tells them about Jana’s suspicions about Daisy and Ryder and they all set out to find out where Jana could be. Later, Kevin and Michael go back over the night and Kevin wonders if the elevator glitch wasn’t a glitch at all but instead, Ryder and Daisy were involved. They realize they need answers about them fast. As Ashley prepares to move into Brad’s, Billy pumps her for information on Tucker to no avail. Meanwhile, Victoria comes to see Victor about his interview on Adam in Restless Style and Victor tells her that he needs to talk her about his reasons for giving the interview in the first place. Later, Sharon stops by the ranch and tries to defend Adam to Ashley but Ashley holds her ground and even reminds Sharon that although she no longer trusts Adam, Sharon is still welcome and Sharon is suddenly overcome with emotion. Phyllis tells Nick that she can’t lay off Adam because he is more dangerous than anyone thought. Phyllis tells Nick everything she has learned about Adam and he realizes that he needs to tell Victor. Later, Victor tells Victoria everything about their plan with Adam just as Nick arrives and fills them in on Adam’s possible involvement in Ashley’s torment and Dr. Taylor. Victoria is furious to have been dragged into this mess against her will. Victoria tells them that she is resigning from Jabot and turning her back on this mess but Victor wants to forge ahead with the deal, even though Nick thinks Adam could turn on them.

When Ashley needs to rush off to help Abby, Sharon offers to stay with Faith and promises not to let Adam anywhere near her. Meanwhile, Adam shows up at Newman Enterprises and reminds Nick and Victor that if they cross him he will return the favor. Later, Phyllis runs into Ashley and tells her that she has proof that Adam knew everything that Dr. Taylor did to Skye and all the other women because she spoke to Skye’s best friend, who was also a victim of Taylor’s. At the ranch, Nick stops by and finds Sharon with Faith, and he tries to make Sharon see that Adam stories just aren’t adding up. Lauren confronts Daisy about her whereabouts and the fact that Ryder is from her past. Daisy covers quickly but Lauren remains suspicious. Meanwhile, Kevin confronts Ryder and tells him that if he did anything to hurt her that he will kill him. Later, Kevin starts to panic when there are no leads on Jana. Meanwhile, Ryder and Daisy watch over a trapped unconscious Jana, locked up in a cage. While talking to Billy at the bar, and being pumped for information on Tucker, Victoria lets it slip that she and J.T. are getting a divorce. Billy tells her that he thinks J.T. is a fool for letting her go and Victoria is caught off guard by the compliment. Later, Billy helps Victoria let off some steam and the two laugh, which Victor witnesses and doesn’t like. After Victoria leaves, Victor warns Billy away from Victoria. Adam, Ashley and Phyllis all arrive at the ranch as Nick and Sharon are talking and Ashley sees Nick holding Summer’s doll with a piece of purple cloth and she realizes that it the cloth that Adam showed her the night he tried to convince her that she hit Sabrina.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: Katie Kicks Bill to the Curb … for Now

Published

By

Bill and Katie

The future isn’t looking so bright for longtime loves Katie Logan (Heather Tom) and Bill Spencer (Don Diamont), when on the Wednesday, November 11 episode Katie wants Bill to leave and give her some space, and to stay away from her!

Katie explains she wanted none of this, but now her insecurity and fear of Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Bill has made it impossible. Bill pleads his case, “I was just trying to help” by speaking with Brooke. Katie tells him, well he didn’t, far from it, it’s all backfired in his face.

Bill insists to Katie that everything he did was for her and her sisters. Katie isn’t buying it. In her mind, Bill has always wanted to stick it to the Forresters. So what changed? She then asks him point blank, if he is still attracted to Brooke? Bill says “no,” but Katie said she wishes she could believe him. He tries to explain that him getting together with Brooke was to broker peace between the Logan sisters.

THE TRUST IS BROKEN

Katie speaks to how she is building her own company, making something of herself, and Bill says to her, “You don’t have to lose the people that you love to prove that you can win.”

Next, Katie is convinced Bill was flirting with Brooke because he texted Brooke a Stallion emoji (she has a point, no?). That reminded Katie of the worst time in her life when he was having an affair with her sister!

She points out how Brooke destroyed her life and took Will away from her and he was sent to boarding school, so why shouldn’t she strike back? Bill tries to point out again, that Katie is going to lose her sisters. But, a defiant Katie fires back, “If they can’t accept me for who I am … so be it!”

Next, Bill says he doesn’t buy it and becomes very emotional calling his wife, “my Katie”.  However, now in a puddle of tears, Katie says those words can’t fix everything. Seeing he is not getting anywhere, Bill walks towards the door and says, “I will hate being apart from you, but I’ll do it for you.”

He vows to never stop fighting for them. Katie’s says, “Goodbye, Bill.”  The music swells, Bill exits, and Katie crawls into a ball on the couch in a dramatic overhead shot to end the episode.

WEDDING BELLS?

In the same episode, it should be noted that Taylor (Rebecca Budig) asked Deacon (Sean Kanan) to re-propose to her, and this time she accepted.

It looks like Taylor or Deacon are headed down the aisle at some point, but not so fast, because Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) was flirting with Deacon, and she won’t take this news lying down.

Check out the emotional scenes featuring Heather Tom and Don Diamont below.

Now weigh-in: were you touched by the moments when Bill left his house to give Katie the space she says she needed over her feelings of betrayal by her husband and her sister, Brooke? How does this all end? Will Katie end up destroying everything in the process on her way to the top? Will she have a mental or physical crisis in days to come? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section.

DANCING WITH THE STARS: A Shocking Elimination on Grammy Night Leaves Ballroom Silenced

Published

By

In what could only be the stunner of this season of Dancing with the Stars, the Tuesday night, November 1o episode saw one of the heavy favorites Jenna Dewan and pro partner Val Chmerkovskiy eliminated right before next week’s all-important semi-finals for the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.

Week 9 was Grammy night, where the contestants performed routines related to the Grammy Awards with songs that have either won or been nominated for the music industry’s highest prize.

After each couple performed their usual routine, they had to dance a second time vs, another couple doing the same dance style. Only Harry Shum Jr. and Jenna Johnson earned immunity from having to participate in it.

THE RESULTS

When all was said and done during the results portion of the show; the following couples were deemed safe and will dance another day: Shum Jr. and Johnson, Amber Glenn and Pasha Pashkov, Ezra Frech and Daniella Karagach, Maura Higgins and Mark Ballas, and Connor Wood and Rylee Arnold.

That left former Y&R actress Tatyana Ali (ex-Roxanne) and Jan Ravnik and Dewan and Chmerkovskiy in the bottom two. It was then revealed that Jenna and Val would be going home. The ballroom fell silent and Dewan said her “thank you’s “in the most gracious way about her dance journey.

Dewan is a dancer, having worked professionally with the likes of Janet Jackson (who also popped up in a special message to her former back-up dancer in the episode) while currently being an actress, and appearing as a series regular on The Rookie. Chmerkovskiy has been controversial figure all season especially after being suspended one week after comments made towards judge Carrie Ann Inaba.

BREAKING THEIR SILENCE

This begs the question: did America want the couple gone, because they had an unfair advantage with Dewan’s dance prowess, or did the show want the couple booted off too?

Later, Jenna and Val broke their silence on the elimination to Extra. Chmerkovskiy shared “It’s’ definitely a sad result. I thought we had a great season.” Dewan admitted, “I know this was a particularly tough week for a lot of the online noise … but I know that we went out there and had the best time of our life.”

Val is married to pro dancer, Jenna Johnson, who remained in the top slot on the leaderboard during the competition with Harry Shum Jr. However, she also had a bad week breaking her nose in rehearsal!

Dancing With the Stars airs on ABC and Disney+ Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET and next day on Hulu.

So were you happy, or sad to see Jenna and Val voted off of Dancing with the Stars? Of the remaining couples who do you hope make it from the semi-finals to the finals and hoists the Mirrorball Trophy? Weigh-in via the comment section.

‘The Bold and the Beautiful’s’ Heather Tom Delivers the ‘Power Performance of the Week’

Published

Heather Tom

Six-time Daytime Emmy winner, Heather Tom, while not taking the gold at the recent Daytime Emmys for Lead Actress, which would have been a record-breaking victory for an actress; should be prepared that in 2027, she has to be near to a lock take that award home!

In the last few months Michael Fairman TV has named her weekly performances as Power Performance of the Week, and for the week of November 2-6, she has done it again!

How did she earn the honors? Well, quite simply, this version of Katie Logan that is being written and portrayed beautifully, has given the character infused live, a backbone, a woman so tired of being put-upon and wronged, that she is firing back in such major ways that her own family doesn’t recognize her behavior.

KATIE AND BROOKE HAVE A SEISMIC SHOWDOWN

Longtime viewers of The Bold and the Beautiful can make a very compelling case that the behavior is justified. Then, on the November 4 episode, Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) and Katie have another major confrontation. Katie is irate that Brooke phoned Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) in an effort to help Bill get through to her to back off the way she is destroying Forrester Creations, in what appears to be Katie’s poaching of the design team, and her ramped up vendetta against Brooke.

However, let’s not forget, Brooke and their sister, Donna (Jennifer Gareis) disowned Katie from the family just a few months ago too! Now in this showdown, Katie rips into Brooke after Brooke attempts to reason with her. Brooke even pulls out the “Stormy” card, reminding viewers that Katie has Storm’s heart. She snipes, “Do you really think he’d be proud of you right now?”

In that moment, Katie chokes up and is struck by that statement, but defends her actions and says Storm would be proud of her. Brooke goes in on if Storm would approve of the way she has gone about building her Logan fashion house design team, which to many seem like cutthroat tactics, Brooke even tells her “Bill is worried.”

Katie snaps after that comment and begins to show her disgust and emotional wounds from how Brooke slept with Bill years ago, especially when she goes in on the the text message Brooke sent to Bill and the use of a stallion emoji. Brooke claims it meant nothing, but Katie shuts her down and shuts her up! Reminding her sister, how she destroyed everything.

KATIE NEVER FORGOT HOW BROOKE SLEPT WITH BILL

Brooke reminds Katie that she had postpartum depression at the time, and she “pushed” her and Bill together. Katie begins to cry, “How could you not know something was profoundly wrong?”

Katie says while she was suffering, Brooke was off in Aspen having sex with Bill. She says of her sister, “You take what you want, and it doesn’t matter who gets hurt and whose life gets destroyed.” She then snipes what was her sister’s excuse the second time?

Then, in the masterful moment in the performance, as sister Donna walks into the showdown, Katie warns Brooke to not EVER talk to her again about morality, or ever accuse her of stealing anything from her, when “You are the master!”

BROOKE’S PAST WILL ALWAYS BE THROWN IN HER FACE

Next, Katie throws down the line Stephanie Forrester called Brooke all the years of their feud, “You are just a slut from the valley.” She punctuated it to both her sister, “We all know she’d sell her soul for a little male attention.'”

Katie tells Brooke she will never apologize to Bill, adding, “And I will never forgive you for this. I am so done with you, and if you’re going to stand next to her (aimed at Donna), then I am done with you too.” As the scene came to its conclusion, Katie told Brooke and Katie to, “stay away from me, stay away from my family, and stay away from Bill.”

Throughout all the scenes, Heather Tom displayed why she is one of the fiercest actresses in daytime drama. This storyline has afforded Tom the opportunity to show all of Katie’s inner rage built over years as she finally lets it out on those who wronged her. For anyone who has been made to feel the weaker sibling in a family, Tom is showing the cause and effect of what can happen to someone after years of feeling put down.

For all the reasons stated above, Michael Fairman TV names Heather Tom our selection for Power Performance of the Week. You can check out part of Heather’s emotional turn in the video clip below.

Now let us know, do you agree with our pick of Heather Tom for the Power Performance of the Week? What do  you think about how Katie is being written in this storyline? Do you think Heather has secured the Lead Actress Emmy in 2027? Weigh-in via the comment section.
