Recaps
Alex covers for Joy, Rafe asks Javi if he’s Lady Whistleblower,

feeling twitter-pated after his date with Leo when he confides in Rafe?
Meanwhile, Leo is across town having a conversation with Marlena about both his
business and personal life! While we’re all for Johnny seeking advice, is EJ really
the best person to be offering it up? (If you wonder why we would raise that
question, look no further than EJ’s own not-always-spectacular past!)
Philip announces he’s replaced Xander at Titan, Stephanie
explains her past with Philip to Alex, and Justin proves he’d fit right in with
General Hospital‘s Quartermaines. Thanksgiving is a time when families come
together. Will the Kiriakis clan manage to gather without a crisis of one sort

Salem by providing meals for the local food pantry.

holidays! Alison Sweeney has something to smile about: “We are so excited.”
Rafe reveals he has a new job, Leo is determined to save
Body and Soul and EJ has a proposition for Joy. They say the course of true
love never runs smoothly, so maybe it’s a good thing that Leo and Javi are
butting heads? Chanel presents her mama with some very good news indeed.
Meanwhile, the only word to describe the situation Johnny and Joy wind up in is
“awkward.” EJ wants an apology from Gabi, which doesn’t seem incredibly likely
to be forthcoming! What’s Rafe’s next move? Listen in on his conversation with
Jada to find out!
Jack discovers an unresponsive Doug, Abe, and Paulina try to
entice Eli and Lani to move back home, and Jennifer slaps Cat. It wouldn’t be
the holiday season if a few missing folks didn’t return to break bread with
their relatives. Today, it’s Jennifer and Jack as well as Eli and Lani who wind
up visiting. (Want to catch up on Eli and Lani’s story? We’ve got you covered!)
The plan to make Clyde pay for his sins and bring him down once and for all
hits a major snag. Will Chad and Cat find a way to get their revenge plot back
on course? Get the tissues out, because Julie is about the have her world rocked
upon discovering that her beloved Doug has passed away.

patriarch has passed away. Shawn and Hope lean on one another during this time

General Hospital
Recaps
Michael betrays Drew, Lulu makes her big escape and Ava’s
trial begins. All of the pieces are in place for big drama as Ava’s trial
finally gets underway. Trust us when we say that this is going to get very
messy very quickly… especially since things kick off with Kristina being called
to testify! Lulu has been awake all of two minutes, or so it seems, and yet
she’s already putting it all on the line and taking a big risk! Will it pay
off? Plus, why is Cyrus so fixated on Lulu? Curtis has a long, open-hearted
conversation with Jordan.
Nicholas Alexander
Chavez talks about “favorite go-to's” and reveals whether General Hospital is still
one of his faves.
Sasha learns she’s pregnant, Lulu comes home, and Kristina
is grilled by Ric in court. If you’re anything like us, your heart still beats
faster when you hear the words “Lucky” and “Elizabeth” mentioned in the same
breath. While we’re not sure if they’ll manage to find their way back together,
Lucky is there when Elizabeth needs assistance. As the biggest trial to
hit Port Charles in ages continues, Dante is the next person to take the stand.
Will his testimony put the final nail in Ava’s proverbial coffin? And what
exactly is the trick that Ric has up his sleeve? Will Cody wind up regretting
his actions when he helps a stranger? Or might his good deed have a positive
outcome? Sasha needs someone to confide in, and Maxie is in the right place at
the right time.
Cyrus and Lucky may be related, but something tells us the
younger man won’t hold back when he confronts his treacherous uncle! Ava’s fate
may rest in Molly’s words as Ric calls his daughter to testify. Brace
yourselves, Spinelli and Maxie, because a bit of a shock is heading in your
direction! Brook Lynn and Chase lay their hearts on the line during an honest
chat. Lulu sees someone familiar… but is that a good thing or a bad thing?
Although the soap will
air today, it will not be a new episode. In fact, the episode being shown —
which originally aired on July 19 of this year — isn’t even a particularly
special or classic outing. Look for Jason and Carly to continue reconnecting,
Trina to be hit with a wave of emotion as she continues processing Spencer’s
death, and Tracy to be charmed by newcomer Gio.
Not only will the show
not be airing a new episode today, they won’t even be airing a rerun. Instead,
look for sports to take over ABC’s afternoon lineup.

time saying goodbye,” but Rena Sofer found a beautiful way to do so.

things have happened while she was in a coma. It’s almost hard to predict which

a big decision to make.
Something tells us things will get really ugly real quick when
Alexis and Ric take the gloves off and lay all their cards on the table!

proclamation!

with one. Meanwhile, Sonny is busy listening to Dante and trying to offer the
best guidance he can.

The Bold & the Beautiful
Recaps
Ridge realizes the extent of Carter’s betrayal, and Electra
remains unaware of Remy’s agenda. Oblivious to the danger lurking, Electra
bumps into an old friend — Remy Pryce. If only she knew he had the classic stalker
wall full of photos of her. Ridge’s disbelief soon turns to anger when Brooke
spills Hope and Carter’s secret. Their next move is clear.
Ridge calls in Justin Barber, and Electra shows Ivy deep
fake photos of herself. Electra finally lets Ivy in on why she fled home for
Los Angeles — but of course, it’s not what anyone would expect! Remy works his
magic on Deacon, who is intrigued. Will the newcomer wind up becoming Il
Giardino’s latest waiter… or will he just walk away with free breadsticks? Ridge
reels from Carter’s betrayal. Maybe the dressmaker is forgetting his bestie’s
meteoric rise in the fashion world. If so, he can jog his memory with our new
photo gallery of Carter’s life and loves.
Ridge wants Carter to dump Hope, and Hope flips over
Brooke’s betrayal. Ridge calls in high-end attorney Justin Barber to fix the
mess that Carter has left. Considering how untrustworthy Justin is, that seems
akin to inviting a fox into the hen house, but what do we know? Et tu, Mama?
Hope spirals when Brooke shatters her world with the ultimate betrayal. Guess
when it comes down to it, destiny trumps daughter.
John McCook has a new
No. 1 fan… who just happens to be one of his castmates.

change hands yet again?) In other developments, Deacon has something cookin’ at

The Young & the Restless
Recaps
Adam reaches out to Sharon, and Phyllis rakes Michael over
the coals. Frankly, he had it coming. (Here’s why.) If we were Billy, as Victor
pushes his buttons for the zillionth time, we’d have to be thinking of having
them surgically removed. No stranger to doing things that he regrets, Adam
offers moral support to his former wife Sharon. Of course, what she really needs is
a clue as to who is behind her current predicament. Phyllis has a painful
reminder about her accident. Could it trigger a memory that will help her
figure out that Sharon wasn’t really to blame?
Hunter King sends a
sweet message to honor a “national treasure.”
Young & Restless
rant: How Ian and Jordan will be exposed! Plus, a “sicko” twists for Sharon and
Daniel, and the most offensive plot point of the week.
Billy wants to team with Phyllis, and Kyle makes a difficult
admission. No one will be asking “Who’s the boss?” when Nikki embraces her new
role at Chancellor Enterprises. No matter how entitled Billy may be, it’s not
going to be a good look for him when he loses his cool with his ailing mom Jill. Jack
works to repair his relationship with Billy. Maybe leaving him be would do the
trick. You know, let absence make the heart grow fonder and all that. Burned by
an old flame! Sally’s headed for yet heartbreak.
More: Linden Ashby’s
latest exit from Young & Restless.
Daniel Goddard teases
‘something truly incredible’ coming our way: “I’ve missed you.”
Diane gives Kyle his job back, and Claire accepts Nikki’s
job offer. Victor warns Claire about Kyle. Which is just plain odd? A guy who
once replaced Jack with an evil twin is warning a woman who pumped Nikki full
of vodka against dating a fella who is, at worst, an unrepentant brat. What,
they still have cards up their sleeves to play? Go on, then, Jack and Diane.
Let’s hear what the couple has to say as they make a confession about their
deception. Nate opens his home to Amy. Yeah, yeah, but when are we gonna meet
his brother, dang it!
Courtney Hope faces her fears head-on, leaving the former
leading man cheering, “Good for you!”

heart-first into a new romance with Sally, review his life and loves. Bet there
are some Billys in there you won’t even remember!
Next Week
Leftover turkey is the
least of our favorites’ problems: On one end of the canvas, the hot seat in
which Sharon finds herself gets even hotter, and on the other, Christine is
called upon to do the unthinkable.
Monday, December 2:
Victor needs no advice from Kenny Rogers about when to hold
’em and when to fold ’em. He knows perfectly well that the best way to play his
cards is the way that he does today: close to the vest!
She’s come a long way from her days bumping and grinding at
The Bayou! Now a well-established mover and shaker of an altogether different
sort, Nikki settles into her new role at Chancellor.
Can we get a referee, please? ’Cause we’re gonna need one
when Phyllis and Summer demand answers from Sharon.
Restless Rant! See if
you agree with our grading in Y&R’s November Sweeps report card. Plus,
what’s coming up, and a guest rant about “whiny baby men”.
Tuesday, December 3:
We should all have an ex like Nick Newman. Today, he crosses
the line to help Sharon — heaven knows she needs all the help she can get!
Claire has seen the red flags waving, yet she still allows
herself to be romanced by Kyle.
Proving herself to be an indispensable minion, Crazy Aunt
Jordan gathers Intel for Puppetmaster Ian.
Wednesday, December
4:
They’d probably be wise not to hatch any more schemes shortly. But nonetheless, Jack has a proposal for Diane.
Michael counsels Sharon through a tough decision — no doubt the first of many that she will have to make as the year comes to calendars M, Y, O, and B never having meant diddly to Summer, she interrogates Kyle about Claire.
Thursday, December 5:
Hell must be freezing over, because however reluctantly,
Christine takes steps to help Phyllis. And yes, it felt weird even to type that
sentence!
Perhaps hoping that his romantic track record doesn’t speak
for itself, Billy proves himself to Sally. Where, exactly, is the button that
will allow us to reach through the TV and scream at her, “Run? Run away —
fast!”
Sharon is up to her eyeballs in stress these days. So the
way Nick sees it, the last thing she needs is Adam trying to “lend a hand.”
Will the black sheep of the Newman family listen when his half-brother warns
him to keep his distance from their ex-wife?
Friday, December 6:
We wouldn’t play Tiddlywinks with Victor, much less poker,
and here’s why: He doesn’t even blink as he calls Diane’s bluff.
Always ready to play devil’s advocate, Nikki questions
Jack’s motives.
When Kyle receives mixed signals from Summer, how will he interpret
them?
Back in Salem, the 'slap seen 'round the world'!
