The Bold & the Beautiful

Last Week...

Daphne accepts Carter’s proposal, and Sheila pays Taylor another visit to make a vow. Steffy and Finn worry in a big way that if Sheila learns about Deacon and Taylor catching feelings for one another, the psycho will resort, as she always does,s to violence. Daphne agrees to marry Carter. In other words, she says “oui” to his proposal!

Eric brings Katie to tears, and Steffy agrees to help Dylan. Carter and Daphne celebrate their engagement with Ridge and Steffy. For once, Carter might actually get to go through with a wedding that he isn’t officiating.

Eric wants to design for Logan, and Brooke accuses Katie of stealing… her own name. With Steffy suddenly in her corner, Dylan gets all revved up about the possibility of working at Forrester. And Will and Electra? As you can see, they are also, um, stoked. But maybe we have Dylan all wrong. The truth is right in front of our eyes. If Donna thinks she’s concerned about keeping the peace between Brooke and Katie now, wait till she finds out what her honey bear does. It hasn’t even begun yet, but Daphne’s deception may have already doomed her marriage to Carter!

Katie accepts Eric’s offer despite her fears, and RJ (Brayan Nicoletti) returns. R.J. was on a trip? What? Apparently so. That’s the story he tells his folks, Ridge and Brooke.

Brooke runs into Eric at Logan, and RJ’s smitten with Electra. ‘Mayhem’ ahead for Eric and Katie… Rather than talk over the Luna-cy that R.J. missed, “Bridge” fills in their son about what’s most important to them: Katie’s starting her own fashion house and, worse, calling it Logan. Katie has something major to tell Bill — and we have a hunch that her sister and brother-in-law aren’t gonna like it one bit! Doubtful that Brooke is making a puzzle as she attempts to put the pieces together.

Coming Up...

Secrets are ticking time bombs. The one that Katie’s keeping from Brooke is destined to explode spectacularly, and the one that Deacon and Taylor are keeping suddenly becomes something that half of L.A. is keeping under their hat — with good reason, too.

The Young & the Restless

Last Week...

Cane and Phyllis celebrate as Victor makes a shocking announcement, and Jack is left baffled. Even though Jack delivered Matt Clark on a silver platter, Victor nonetheless double-crosses his longtime nemesis. Dude, there’s feuding, and then there’s just being a jerk, and this is definitely the latter. At the same time, Nikki confronts an enemy… but which one? She’s accumulated a few over the years, after all! As they set out to take down the great and powerful Victor, Cane surprises Phyllis. Oh, snap! Cane and Phyllis trigger a massive twist… and [Spoiler] may get the last laugh!

Victor confronts Cane and Phyllis, and Sally accuses Billy of lying. Perhaps unaware of the danger his zillions are in, Victor backs Cane into a corner. Nick’s setback signals trouble ahead for the perpetually trying-to-reunite pair. At Newman, Victoria and Adam are tasked with doing damage control. But is it too little, too late? Diane’s had it up to here, so she finally slaps Jack with an ultimatum.

Sharon gets shocking news from Tessa, and Nick breaks out of the hospital. Nikki and Victor fight about family business, but why? She knows he always thinks he’s right,t no matter how wrong he is. Nick takes matters in his own hands. Should we remind him that it didn’t work out so hot last time? Torn between her love for Daniel and her loyalty to Mariah, Tessa’s in quite a pickle. Can Sharon help her make a final decision about her challenging circumstances?

Nick rages at Phyllis, and Sally catches Billy with Cane. Since Billy rarely comes clean of his own volition, Sally is left to force him to do so. Phyllis has never had any problem justifying her actions, so we don’t imagine she’ll trip up in the slightest when she’s called upon to defend her latest shenanigans. Nick keeps a secret from Sharon. Cane’s staggering next move leaves Victor *and* Phyllis fuming!

Matt lands in Nick’s trunk, and Sally walks out on Billy. Desperate to end the Matt Clark situation once and for all, Nick turns to former stepfather Jack for help. Speaking of the Big Bad, Noah makes a shocking discovery about his girlfriend’s psychotic husband. Barking up the wrong tree, but still, Diane gives it the ol’ college try, pumping Michael for Intel about Victor.

Coming Up...

It’s Victor vs. the world... Not only is the tycoon getting ready to take on Matt Clark (again), but he finds a new reason to threaten Jack (again), too. At the same time, he has Adam and Victoria doing his bidding as they attempt to undo the damage that Cane has wrought. And in other developments, Billy’s in hot water with both his former wife and his current girlfriend, Sienna tees up useful info, and Audra and Holden extend an olive branch to Amy.

Monday, January 19:

In the Newmans’ never-ending battle against Matt Clark, Victor receives valuable intel from Sienna.

Genoa City’s newest and perhaps unlikeliest tag team of Victoria and Adam work together to protect Newman Enterprises.

Tuesday, January 20:

Guess it’s time to hit the gym as Victor prepares to go up against Matt Clark.

Chelsea proves herself to Nikki.

As only an ex can, Victoria holds Billy accountable for his actions.

Wednesday, January 21:

Knowing how Victor overreacts when he finds Nikki and Jack in a compromising situation, we can only assume they’re, like, having tea or attending an AA meeting.

It always comes down to this with Billy Boy, doesn’t it? Sally is blindsided by her partner’s decision-making.

She is Phyllis, hear her roar! On Hump Day, she stands her ground with Cane.

Thursday, January 22:

Another day, another threat. This time i,t’s Victor putting Jack on notice for the 1,000th time.

Sharon worries about Nick’s condition — with good reason.

Serving up a reminder that she’s her father’s daughter. Victoria hits Cane where it hurts.

Friday, January 23:

Monday, January 19:

Now that Willow’s been found not guilty of shooting Drew, how long until the truth comes out? (And how will everyone react upon realizing that, thanks to double jeopardy laws, she can’t be charged with the crime a second time!)

Someone is about to get not only an offer from Sonny, but one that is downright cryptic. Could this be why Dante is feeling conflicted?

Anna’s been through a lot over the years, but what’s about to unfold will leave her downright horrified.
