Michelle Stafford as Phyllis Summers |
The Young and the Restless
Victor plays Let’s Make a Deal, and Phyllis calls in reinforcements to help her expose Tara and Sally: both an old friend and the man she loves. Meanwhile, Mariah’s disappearance sends an ever larger ripple of fear through Genoa City, and Amanda contemplates revenge.
Friday, July 30:
Phyllis gets one big step closer to exposing Sally and Tara, Rey learns Sharon’s been talking to Adam, and Tara eavesdrops.
Sharon welcomes home Rey, whom you’ll recall was assigned to escort Chelsea to her mother’s place.
Chloe is now working with Adam at Newman Media, which is a situation we never really imagined coming to pass. Should the boss be worried that his new hire is strategizing with his ex, Chelsea? Well, of course he should! But given that it’s Adam we’re talking about, something tells us he might just manage to stay a step or two ahead of the women. Something else we never saw coming — the sexual tension in the office. Are Adam and Chloe on a sexual collision course more unlikely than any we’ve ever seen?!
When Phyllis chases down a lead, will it have to do with Sally… Tara… or both? And might it finally give the miffed mom what she needs to turn the tables and bring daughter Summer back to Genoa City? Or could her discovery set in motion the upcoming exit of Michael Mealor’s Kyle?
DVR alert! The Hallmark premiere of Mystery 101: Deadly History sends Amy and Travis to New York City to investigate a missing persons case — one that hits way too close to home.
Week of August 2:
Y&R Restless Rant, the hot topics are Stitch’s lie, Chloe and Adam’s possible hate sex, and the big love scene fails for Ashland/Victoria and Devon/Amanda. Plus, battling redheads bring sizzle to the snoozefest.
Monday, August 2:
Having pursued a lead, it’s now time for Phyllis to plot her next move. The best of the best, “Red” successfully pushed Tara and Sally’s buttons when she tricked them into an argument that she caught on video, and we expect an equally dramatic result from her latest scheme.
She tried! Young & Restless’ Michelle Stafford reveals home hair color fail with an endearingly off photo: “I know, I know…”
She’s already lost out on a second chance at romance with Jack, and once again, Sally must cover her tracks with the senior Abbott. Given that he no longer trusts her, will she be able to pull the wool over his eyes?
We can’t even imagine these two with anyone else at this point — or Young & Restless without this pairing! As their bittersweet journey continues, Victoria helps Ashland make a decision about his future. Fingers and toes crossed this will have to do with an experimental treatment that could cure his cancer.
Hunter King (Summer) finally breaks her silence: “They don’t know…”
Tuesday, August 3:
Endgame revealed?! Young & Restless’ swan song for Summer and Kyle may have been hinted at in a recent conversation.
When Victor prevents Adam from retaliating against Victoria, will the younger Newman relent and call them even? After all, it wasn’t that long ago that Adam put the brakes on Dad’s plan to go after Billy and Chancellor Communications.
Phyllis connects with an old friend, who we assume will be able to help in her quest to expose Tara and Sally. It could be Michael but in this case is more likely to be his brother, Kevin, who is a whiz at digging into phone records and such.
Having successfully dodged Phyllis’ bullets thus far, Tara finds herself under scrutiny once again when Jack and Kyle question her intentions. Will she manage to squirm out of yet another interrogation?
Wednesday, August 4:
Well, it’s about time! Days, nay weeks, after her daughter dropped out of sight whilst hugely pregnant, Sharon worries about Mariah’s disappearance. Will Mom be the one to get to the bottom of the mystery?
When Abby shares her fears with Devon, she may be concerned that Mariah’s done a runner with her baby on board. Will she be able to connect the dots and figure out that Stitch could be involved?
These two have been juggling work, kids and romance, but the relationship isn’t going stale as is proven by Lily’s ability to inspire Billy once again. But what will she spur him to do — and will it land him in hot water as usual?
Thursday, August 5:
As Amanda contemplates revenge against Sutton, will Devon convince her to turn the other cheek? Or will she even confide in the man she loves about her sinister thoughts?
When Summer makes an unexpected apology, we have to wonder if the cat is out of the bag about Sally and Tara’s scheme to run her out of Genoa City. Might she be feeling regret about not coming clean and seeking help to deal with the scammers before acquiescing to Tara’s demands?
Friday, August 6:
Victor surprises someone with a new business proposition, and we have to wonder if it will be Victoria. His recent move to protect her from an attack by Adam may signal that he’s ready to mend fences with his headstrong daughter.
Juicy! Phyllis has clearly brought Nick into the loop with regard to her suspicions about Tara and Sally, as together, they plan the ultimate take-down of the scheme team. Time to add another chapter to “Phick’s” tumultuous love story (retold here in photos).
When Kyle makes a bold move, will Tara’s house of cards finally come tumbling down? If so, what revelations will come to light? And what of Summer and Kyle’s doomed engagement? Might they actually get their “happily ever after” in Italy?

The Bold and the Beautiful
Despite the revelation of Finn’s secret, he and Steffy move forward with plans for what has been dubbed “the wedding of the century.” Expect special requests, new faces, and learn what outcasts Quinn and Carter will get up to as the big day nears!
Friday, July 30:
Brooke has a warning for Eric, Quinn proves majorly distracting to Carter, and Finn’s dad frets about a secrets.
Carter walks a fine line between his agreement with Eric and his feelings for Quinn. Although since Carter just hooked up with her in the spoilers for Monday, we’re going to go out on a limb and guess that “walks a fine line” means “crosses a fine line.”
When Finn’s dad, Jack, surprises him and Steffy with a pre-wedding visit, Ted King (perhaps best known as the Alcazar twins on General Hospital) makes his debut in the role. Fun fact: Jaida King, who plays model Carmen in the same episode, is no relation to the soap vet.
DVR alert! The Hallmark premiere of Mystery 101: Deadly History sends Amy and Travis to New York City to investigate a missing person’s case — one that hits way too close to home…
Week of August 2:
Monday, August 2:
When Steffy learns a secret about Finn, it’s not as foreboding as the past we imagined he might be hiding from his betrothed. In fact, revealing a vulnerability might endear the handsome doctor to his bride-to-be all the more. Wait, is that even possible?
We expect well wishes and rejoicing all around when Finn and Steffy announce their impending wedding to their families. Perhaps even Liam will finally be able to embrace the idea of his first wife moving on and no longer waiting in the wings for his next flip or flop.
Tuesday, August 3:
Steffy puts aside her past rivalry with Hope and asks her to play a pivotal role in her nuptials. Will Hope agree to the unexpected request?
As her wedding day draws near, Steffy asks her grandfather to do something that will both please her and pay tribute to her late grandmother, Stephanie. But will he see fit to honor her request?
Wednesday, August 4:
Sigh. Swoon-worthy Finn just gets more perfect with each passing day. On this particular day, the would-be groom romances his bride on the eve of their wedding. Save something for the honeymoon, buddy! Or pace yourself by reviewing the highlights of #Sinn’s relationship thus far.
Outcasts Quinn and Carter find a sexy way to distract themselves from not being invited to the “wedding of the century.” Hmm… what could it be? Something tells us Carter will have a lot more fun with Quinn than he would have had officiating the ceremony!
Thursday, August 5:
Tensions rise when a mystery woman arrives at the Forrester mansion. How will her arrival impact the ceremony that is just about to begin?
Friday, August 6:
In front of friends and family, Steffy and Finn pledge themselves to one another, reciting personal vows and becoming husband and wife. Though everything’s coming up roses right now for the happy couple, we have to wonder if it’s the calm before the storm as all signs point to Steffy’s worst nightmare being realized thanks to a recent decision that may backfire spectacularly.
I guess the question of the week is: Is Peter (Wes Ramsey) really dead? Also pictured--Michael Easton as Dr. Hamilton "Finn" Finn; Rebecca Herbst as Elizabeth "Liz" Webber Baldwin |

Britt and Terry are both hoping to be named Chief of Staff at General Hospital. Today, Monica will give one of them the good news… and disappoint the other.
Tuesday, July 27:
Peter’s body is missing from the freezer, Stella takes action on Jordan’s behalf, and Curtis makes Shawn an offer.
In need of someone to confide in, Elizabeth turns to her former father-in-law, Scott. (Anyone else willing to bet it’s not a coincidence that he’s an attorney?)
The Metro Court pool is the place to be these days, so it’s not surprising that it’s also where Shawn and Curtis wind up reconnecting. Meanwhile, Trina wants to be happy for her mom… but can she actually let herself be supportive?
Josslyn has news she is anxious to tell her mom… but Spencer manages to ruin her attempt at doing so.

Valentin realizes Peter could be alive, Elizabeth urgently calls Nikolas about Hayden, and Spencer catches his father with Ava.
What puts Dante and Anna on opposite sides of their confrontation?
Olivia loves nothing more than dispensing advice, so she’s happy to offer some to Brook Lynn.
Given his involvement in what went down during Hayden’s final days in Port Charles, it’s understandable that Nikolas bristles when he finds out Sam is trying to track down his former wife’s shooter. Meanwhile, Trina suggests that Spencer should throw a party at Wyndemere. (Clearly, she’s way too young to remember some of the past fetes held there… perhaps she should Google the words “Bacchanalia Ball.”)
Friday, July 30:
Austin spies Chase standing, Elizabeth confronts Nikolas about Hayden, and Willow gets a surprise.
It’s getting harder and harder for Michael and Willow to keep their relationship under wraps. How long before their secret blows up in their face? Meanwhile, Chase continues to push himself in the hopes of getting his life back on track.
Brook Lynn can’t help being wary of Austin, the newest offshoot of the Quartermaine clan.

Week of August 2:
Monday, August 2:
As situations around her spiral out of her control, an overwhelmed Jordan feels helpless. Meanwhile, Stella has a few things she wants Portia to hear and is going to make sure she hears them!
Feeling herself continuing to be drawn in two directions, Nina can’t help but feel guilty. But will she eventually feel guilty enough to reveal what she knows about the not-actually-dead Sonny?
Michael is there when Willow is in need of comforting. What we want to know is who’ll be there when Chase finds out what’s going on in his marriage, because he sure as heck will need some comforting! Speaking of whom, Austin is right there by Chase’s side to cheer his progress. Could the no-longer-dying detective be back on his feet (literally) sooner than anyone imagined?
Tuesday, August 3:
Although yesterday, Austin was there to encourage Chase, today the new doctor in town is issuing warnings to his patient.
Something tells us Nina’s guilt won’t exactly be assuaged when she takes a video call from Wiley. (Might “Mike” catch a glimpse of his grandchild during that call? And if so, will he recognize the boy?)
As Joss is being teased about her relationship, Trina is dealing with feels of betrayal. But whom does she think stabbed her in the proverbial back?
Jordan and Curtis might not be quite as over as we thought. When Jordan asks her estranged husband to fight for their marriage, will he be willing to give it the old college try?
Wednesday, August 4:
Their lives at a potential crossroads, Trina and Portia sit down for a long talk. Meanwhile, Stella has to make a confession to Curtis.
Alexis suspects that Harmony has ulterior motives for her actions. (And given that we’re talking about Harmony, it seems pretty likely the jailed legal eagle is right!)
Brook Lynn may be keeping a major secret from Valentin, but she still can’t help questioning his motives.
Carly is in for a heck of a shock when she realizes that Monica — Monica! — is in her corner.
Thursday, August 5:
Jax once again finds himself furious at the fact that Carly is continuing to put their daughter, Josslyn, in danger. But is there anything he can do to prevent it?
It wasn’t that long ago that Cameron was telling anyone who’d listen what a horrible person Jason is. But they’ve clearly patched things up, because today, the young man will be getting boxing pointers from Elizabeth’s ex! Later, Curtis takes time to say “thank you” to Cameron.
What causes TJ’s emotions to get the better of him while on duty at the hospital? Elsewhere in the facility, Terry swallows her pride and tries to make nice with Britt.
Friday, August 6:
Sam and Nikolas visit Alexis. The big question is whether they’re presenting a united front or each is there on their own business.
We all know it’s not easy for someone with a record to find employment once out of jail. But it could be Shawn’s lucky day when Ava offers him a job.
Jax and Carly continue to butt heads over their daughter’s future… as in whether Carly’s decisions are putting Josslyn’s life on the line!
Anna and Obrecht have a long, complicated history… which should make it fascinating when the two of them sit down to discuss Peter!
Lulu’s been in a coma for a very long time, and Dante’s been getting closer to Sam. Could that be the topic of discussion when his former mother-in-law Laura offers him some advice?
