The Young and the Restless
Things are
definitely coming to a head in the saga of Ashland Locke’s
mysterious past, and the fallout will pit Victor against Billy, not
to mention Victoria against Nick (of all people!). Meanwhile, Jack
and Phyllis can’t seem to stay away from one another after his
oddly timed declaration of love, trouble brews between Mariah and
Tessa, and Amanda makes a major move.
Friday,
September 24:
When Victoria becomes suspicious of Phyllis, will she be feeling
protective of her younger brother, Nick? If so, what is the redhead
up to that is so concerning… and with whom?
It sounds like Billy’s in the catbird seat when he makes someone a
generous offer. But who will be the benefactor of his largesse? And
will they leap at the opportunity he’s offering or tell him to go
fish?
Victor takes matters into his own hands. But who will be the
mustachioed mogul’s target and what situation will he be taking
control of? Will it have to do with would-be son-in-law Ashland? Our
guess would be “yes.” Our second guess would be, “Ashland’s
in biiig trouble,” especially considering how Victor has handled
other “problems.”

September 27:
Wow, who knew that Ashland and Victoria’s love story would come
down to Victor vs. Billy? Only everyone! What remains to be seen is
who will come out on top when The Mustache helps Ashland craft a
defense against Billy Boy.
Speaking of things we saw coming a mile away, Abby turns to Devon for
help with Dominic. Given the way the billionaire is already
struggling with the reality of his limited role in the child’s
life, how much more attached will he get if he steps in to pinch-hit
for Chance?
When Mariah hints at plans for the future, will she be spreading the
word about her hopes to have a baby with Tessa? And if so, how will
her obviously reluctant partner respond? Is there trouble ahead for
Teriah?
Courtney
Hope (Sally) breaks her social-media fast to reach out to ‘my rock,
my saving grace and my right hand’ on the most special of
occasions.
Tuesday,
September 28:
Jack and Phyllis discuss unfinished business, which can only mean
more talk about him professing his undying love to her (and then
confessing that he did so to her boyfriend, Nick). Will this end up
with Jack looking through our album of his past loves and wondering
where it all went wrong?
Has hell frozen over? It must have, because the unthinkable happens
when Victoria and Adam call a truce.
When Amanda makes a move in the right direction, we have to assume
she’s finally packing her bags and hightailing it over to the
penthouse after taking Devon up on his offer to co-habitate. But how
will his role in Dominic’s life, not to mention her sister Imani’s
return to Genoa City, affect their relationship? Can they make it
work with so many distractions? Maybe there’s a hint to be found in
this photographic review of Mishael Morgan’s runs as both Hilary
and Amanda.
Wednesday,
September 29:
Well, we’ve been here and done this before. What sort of answers
will Nikki get this time when she questions Billy’s motives? Will
he finally convince her that he has Victoria’s best interests at
heart?
We have to wonder where Nick is — and what he’d think of this
development, given Jack’s recent confession — when Jabot’s
lonely head honcho spends quality time with Phyllis.
Will Ashland take heed when Nate gives him unsolicited advice? It’s
probably not a bad idea, given how level-headed the former has proven
to be, and the result may make the groom-to-be extra grateful that he
decided to ask the dashing doc to be his best man.
Thursday,
September 30:
In a bit of weird timing, just after Victoria buries the hatchet with
her brother Adam, conflict flares with her other sibling when she
accuses Nick of betrayal. Can she not get along with both of them at
the same time?
What advice will Sharon give to Mariah when she opens up to her,
presumably about her desire to have a baby of her own after parting
ways with her beloved Bowie? Oops, we mean Dominic!
We’d expect nothing less from the man with the moniker Locke Ness
Monster. But what will the fallout be, and for whom, when Ashland
protects his interests? Maybe we’ll finally find out what makes him
so fearsome.
Friday,
October 1:
This Nick/Phyllis/Jack situation continues to become more fraught
when her significant other interrupts a moment between her and her
ex. We have to wonder how she finds time for all these clandestine
meetings with her former husband whilst running a hotel almost
single-handedly… and we also question whether this is all leading
to a partner swap for our favorite risk-taking redhead.
Tension rears its ugly head when Mariah and Tessa disagree about
their future. We’re guessing Tessa isn’t ready to take time out
from touring to start a family. Could a breakup be in their future?
Eek! Who will be the unfortunate target when Victoria unleashes her
anger? Could it be her cagey husband-to-be, her brother, her father
or — most likely if we’re being honest — her ex-husband, Billy?
Now that you
know what’s coming up on screen, follow the steps of an off-screen
romance as we celebrate the anniversary of Melissa Ordway (Abby) and
Justin Gaston (ex-Chance).
The Bold and the Beautiful
Confessions
are made and confrontations go down after Quinn and Carter are caught
in the act! Plus, Steffy and Sheila square off, Finn confides in a
blonde that isn’t Paris, and Sheila lands a new confidante who puts
a fresh twist on her situation.
Friday,
September 24:
Justin busts Quinn and Carter, Paris makes a move, and Sheila shows
up uninvited!
Will the Forresters never learn? Cooking up yet another recipe for a
disastrous misunderstanding, Ridge and Eric each keep a secret from
the other. We know what the elder Forrester is withholding, but what
could Ridge be hiding? Perhaps a Quinn and Carter sighting?! Maybe he
doesn’t want to admit how much he likes the idea of Deacon Sharpe
getting a shot at redemption?
She’s baaack! Sheila vowed, in several sinister-sounding speeches
(made mostly to herself), that she would not be kept away from her
son and grandson… and she makes good on those threats.
Unsurprisingly, Steffy fumes when the Finn’s birth mother makes yet
another unexpected visit. Forget baby-proofing the house, Steffy;
you’ve gotta psycho-proof it!
Find out what we thought of the week that was as we weigh in on
everything from the Logan sisters anointing themselves Eric’s
protectors to “Quarter” forgetting that they’ve got the
all-clear to have sex, not a fairy-tale romance, in a new Soapbox
column.

Y&R
Restless Rant! Hot topics: Jack’s pointless standalone episode,
Ashland’s secret revealed, Tessa’s dilemma, Sharon vs. Sally,
Noah’s return, and much more…
Monday,
September 27:
Pass the popcorn and fill your glass, ’cause all hell is bound to
break loose when Quinn and Carter find themselves busted! And you
just know no one is going to believe them when they say that they
have Eric’s blessing to canoodle!
Who will come out worse for wear when things quickly get volatile
between Steffy and Sheila? Honestly, this could go either way, which
makes it such a delicious showdown. We’re rubbing our hands in
anticipation! Way to get us into the week, Bold & Beautiful!
Courtney
Hope (ex-Sally) breaks her social-media fast to reach out to ‘my
rock, my saving grace and my right hand’ on the most special of
occasions.
Tuesday,
September 28:
Sheila puts Finn on the spot when he halts her argument with Steffy.
Will the good doctor have his wife’s back once again, or will he
find himself back in the guesthouse with no air-conditioning, or
worse yet, kicked entirely to the curb if he sides with his birth
mother?!
Will Quinn and Carter reveal how Eric’s erectile dysfunction
diagnosis led to them being back between the sheets together, or will
they keep his secret hidden, when they attempt to do damage control?
Wednesday,
September 29:
Eric and Katie bond while sharing an emotionally cathartic moment. Is
this the beginning of more than just neighborly closeness, and if so,
what on earth will her still-besotted sister, Donna, think of the
unforeseen development? If you’re also interested in finding out
what the Forrester patriarch thinks of his Logan exes, dive into our
photo-filled interview in which John McCook dishes the deets on
Eric’s former loves.
Ridge explodes when Justin reveals an upsetting truth (which can only
be Quinn having sex with Carter). Are we headed for an extreme
confrontation between Ridge, Carter and Quinn? Or will the fuming
dressmaker run directly to his father with the so-called goods on his
wife?
Thursday,
September 30:
Katie gains clarity when Eric divulges an intimate secret. Clearly,
he’ll come clean about his issues in the bedroom, which could help
the nosy neighbor to be a little more sympathetic toward Quinn’s
position. However, we suspect if she finds out his wife agreed to be
“fulfilled” by Carter, Katie’s new sense of understanding will
go out the window faster than Eric did when Stephanie caught him in
bed with Donna!
Ah, well, there’s our answer then! Ridge confronts Eric in front of
Quinn about her adultery. We fully expect him to be astounded when he
learns that his dear ol’ dad orchestrated the whole thing!
Friday,
October 1:
Finn confides in Hope while Liam and Steffy spend time with Kelly.
We’d be surprised if Hope had much sympathy for anything having to
do with Sheila, but then again, she has a problematic biological
parent of her own. As is turns out, we just happen to have a perfect
storyline in mind for a potential Deacon return.
Sheila takes deceptive advice from a new acquaintance. We have to
wonder if it could be Paris, who just might see an opportunity to
manipulate the situation and drive a wedge between Steffy and Finn,
who is the object of her heart’s desire.
General Hospital
There could
be big changes ahead for several couples as Michael and Willow revel
in their happiness, Ned and Olivia appear to be at a crossroads, and
the fate of Nikolas and Ava’s marriage might finally be decided!
Hot Topic:
Is Carly keeping a secret that would rock both Jason and Sonny?
Week of
September 20:
Monday,
September 20:
Sonny comes home just as Carly and Jason kiss upstairs, Brook Lynn
asks Chase to stay the night, and Nina fills in Anna and Valentin on
Peter.

Will she be able to rationalize what she’s done where “Mike” is
concerned? And if you think this story is ending, think again.
Maurice Benard (Sonny) and Laura Wright (Carly) promise what comes
next is sure to “blow your mind.”
Chase has a gift for Monica.
Olivia isn’t thrilled with hubby Ned after finding out that he’s
been less than honest with her.
Brando only wants what’s best for his mom. Unfortunately, that
might be tough in that all Gladys wants for herself is the best…
period!
When Maxie and Spinelli share a moment at the wedding reception,
might this kick off a new beginning for Georgie’s parents?
Tuesday,
September 21:
Sonny learns Carly and Jason got married, Peter escapes after Anna
shoots him, and Maxie panics when she learns Peter is back.
Anna is in need of help, which is Valentin’s cue to ride to the
rescue.
Things have gotten pretty complicated between Liz and Finn since
first they schemed to keep Peter’s “death” under wraps. Today,
they’ll try to figure out exactly where they stand.
Fans who’ve been shipping the idea of Chase and Brook Lynn as a
couple will definitely enjoy watching them get closer today.
Austin’s clearly concerned about Maxie, a fact that does not go
unnoticed or unappreciated by Britt.
It’s time for Willow and Michael to sit down and figure out exactly
where they’re going to go next.

Can Cameron help Joss and Spencer make peace with one another?
As Ava prepares to leave town, she asks Kristina to help keep
Charlie’s Pub going in her absence.

Cam team up to expose Ava’s stalker, and Sonny encounters Nina.
Britt needs to blow off a little steam, so where better to head than
the gym?

them in recent weeks, is that even possible?
In need of someone to confide in, Nina turns to Maxie.
When Anna receives a chilling phone call, who is on the other end of
the line and what do they say that leaves her so shaken?
Friday,
September 24:
Nina tries to explain her actions to a livid Sonny, while Carly and
Jason ponder what could have been between them.
Nikolas has reason to be hopeful when Spencer has a change of heart.
Of course, given that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,
should Nikolas trust that his son’s new stance is genuine?
Even as Trina’s plotting against Esme, the newbie is trying to get
closer to Josslyn.
Maxie, having been around Port Charles long enough to know how things
tend to go, prepares for the worst.
What’s the alarming news that leaves Britt shaken?
On his
beloved wife’s birthday, Maurice Benard shares an intimate photo
that ‘really shows our relationship when we started going out’ —
plus, why ‘she doesn’t like kissing me’ these days.
As we pass
the anniversary of his final soap appearance, we remember the onetime
ABC leading man who was taken from us by AIDS at just 52 years old.
Week of
September 27:
Monday,
September 27:
Josslyn’s got great news to share… but will everyone, including
Brook Lynn, see it the same way?

investigation.
When Chase offers advice, will big brother Finn listen? (And how
happy are we all that it turned out Finn wasn’t actually his dad?)
Like the good friend she’s long been, Terry is there when Elizabeth
needs her support.
Tuesday,
September 28:
Maxie hopes that moving forward, everyone will have compassion for
what others are going through.
Nothing like a little liquid courage, right? That’s what Valentin
finds when he takes advantage of an alcohol-fueled moment.
Never one to miss out on an opportunity, Obrecht jumps at the chance
to form a rather unexpected alliance.
There ain’t a whole lot of happy couples around Port Charles these
days, but Michael and Willow continue to be the exception to that
rule.
Drew’s had just about enough of his current circumstances. But what
can he do to change them?
Wednesday,
September 29:
Trina is determined to bust Spencer… but will Cam go along with her
plan? (Who are we kidding… Cameron would like nothing better than
to bust Spencer’s chops!) Meanwhile, Josslyn sees something that
she definitely can’t explain while at the hospital.
How far is Nikolas willing to go in order to keep Ava safe?
Epiphany is there when a longtime friend is in need of assistance.
Given what we’ve already seen her do, it’s kinda terrifying to
think about what it means that Esme is about to make a bold move.
Thursday,
September 30:
Monica put aside at least some of her issues with Carly in order to
see Jason happy. But now, she can’t help wondering what’s going
to unfold.

concerned, and he finally accepts his part of the blame.
Wondering what the latest is on the investigation into Hayden’s
shooting? So is Alexis, who gets an update from Shawn.
Ava has a surprise for Kevin.
Something tells us things could get interesting when Josslyn and Esme
cross paths!
Friday,
October 1:
Backed into a corner with nowhere to go, how will Nikolas react? And
what does it mean that Ava is the one who walks away having had the
last word?
Maxie feels the need to apologize, but to whom and for what?
Having been the cause of tension between her dad and Olivia in the
past, Brook Lynn realizes that the couple has hit another speed bump.
Will Ned open up to his daughter about what’s really going on?
It looks as if Austin’s case against the Quartermaine family is
finally moving to the next level. With Scott by his side, will
Edward’s illegitimate heir finally get his share of the
Quartermaine pie?
A whole lot went down while Sonny was hanging out in Nixon Falls…
but one thing that didn’t happen probably should have, because it
would have changed several relationships forever. Did the soap
chicken out at the last minute… or might this shocking twist still
unfold?
Days of Our Lives
The week
ahead is full of temptation, romance, and disappointment.
Days of our
Lives — The Week Ahead
Ciara Brady Weston (Victoria Konefal) still has babies on her mind.
She wants to start a family with Ben Weston (Robert Scott Wilson),
but he has fears about bringing another serial killer into the world.
Ciara tries her best to assure him any baby of theirs would grow up
with love and support, and never turn to the dark side. Since neither
of them can come to a compromise they turn to friends and family for
support. Ben shares his concerns with Tripp Dalton (Lucas Adams),
while Ciara confides in Allie Horton (Lindsay Arnold).
His movie isn’t getting the support from everyone that he initially
thought it would, but Johnny DiMera (Carson Boatman) isn’t giving
up hope just yet. Even with Grandpa John (Drake Hogestyn) backing out
of becoming an investor. Johnny adapts to the letdown and looks to
Tony DiMera (Thaao Penghlis) for help getting his film on the big
screen.
Even with the realization that Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker) has
real feelings for Rafe Hernandez (Galen Gering), EJ DiMera (Dan
Feuerriegel) doesn’t let that tidbit of information deter him. He
asks her out on a date, knowing full well Sami Brady DiMera (Alison
Sweeney) won’t like that one bit. It will be fun to see these
former lovers reigniting their flame.
Days of our
Lives Weekly Recap
Doug Williams (Bill Hayes) was possessed by the devil but it didn’t
last long. A little chat in Marlena Evan’s (Deidre Hall) office and
his problem became the Doc’s. The devil demanded permission to
enter Marlena’s body and the storyline began again, 25 years later.
EJ shook up Gabi Hernandez’s (Camila Banus) whole world by
reclaiming his father’s house. It was out with Jake DiMera (Brandon
Barash) and Gabi, in with Chad DiMera (Billy Flynn) and Abigail
(Marci Miller), and all was sort of right at the mansion again. EJ
then went on to revoke his support for Xander Cook Kiriakis (Paul
Telfer) which resulted in the baddie’s arrest.
Abigail showed up to see Gwen (Emily O’Brien) and the ladies made
peace. A peace that was based on lies, anyway. Abigail wore her heart
(and guilt) on her sleeve but Gwen couldn’t bring herself to come
forward with the truth.
