You may know him as Charlie Dale on “Days of our Lives” or Caleb McKinnon on “The Bay,” but as Bradley “Smitty” Smith on “Beyond the Gates,” two-time Emmy Award winner Mike Manning is making waves as one half of the first interracial gay married couple in daytime, while at the same time making a name for himself behind the camera as a writer/producer working alongside the likes of Academy Award winner Anthony Hopkins and Jonathan Rhys Meyers, among others. In his latest project, the film “Unexpected Treasures,” Manning takes on the role of Sam, a charming alien fugitive who links up with Hartley (Olivia Blue), a down-on-her-luck desert dweller as they race to outrun an alien bounty hunter, while at the same time unlocking ancient prophecies, and discovering that true connections often come from the most unexpected places. Manning talks about the film in a conversation with Soap Opera Network as part of our new video series, “Soapsline,” including how he got involved, his role as executive producer, working with his co-stars, filming in Joshua Tree, and even had time to discuss his role on “Beyond the Gates,” revealing he originally auditioned for the role of Derek before eventually landing the role of Smitty. “I became an executive producer after the fact,” Manning said early on in our discussion, noting he was initially just hired as an actor for the film, which shot in Joshua Tree in April 2024. “At the time, I was living in California. I’ve since then moved to Atlanta for ‘Beyond the Gates,’ which is your background. I always love shooting around where I live because then I don’t have to get on a plane. It’s easier. I read the script, and in the script, Sam, my character, he’s an alien, but he’s so kind and he’s benign. He’s loyal. He’s earnest. He’s just a beautiful creature. And it felt really good.” Desert Fishbowl, LLC Explaining that he has played more villain-type characters throughout his career, Manning shares, he’s happy to play a good guy for a change. “I was looking to play a good guy, and it felt really good to sort of embody Sam. He also has telepathy powers, which my seven-year-old comic book Sci-Fi self was really excited about. Throughout the course of the movie, he’s trying to get back to his spaceship. He meets Hartley, played by Olivia Blue, who was fantastic — she’s a Joshua Tree local. She helps him get back to his spaceship, and along the way, he sort of restores her faith in humanity.” Like several alien movies before it, particularly 1982’s “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,” “Unexpected Treasures” sees Sam seeking to make his way home after spending time on Earth, though he doesn’t have a spaceship to get him there. Instead, he has a teleportation device, something which the film makes a joke of in the dialogue. “They say spaceship in the film, but he’s actually trying to get back to his teleportation device, so because he doesn’t have a spaceship, they kind of make a joke in the film, like, ‘Not everybody has a spaceship. What are you, what are you talking about? They’re expensive.’ And so yeah, it’s, it’s exactly like that,” Manning says. “I mean, growing up, when I saw [Steven] Spielberg‘s ‘E.T.,’ it was one of the movies that made me believe in the magic of movie-making and want to be in this industry. You had the Ron Howard film, ‘Cocoon,’ and you had ‘Close Encounters of the Third Kind.’ You had so many of these alien movies from the 1980s that were beautiful and adventure films and family films, and that’s very much what this movie is. People go into this movie wanting ‘Alien’ with Ripley and the Xenomorphs, and that’s not what this movie is [laughs].” In addition to Manning and Blue, the cast includes Michael Dunn (“Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2”) as Frank, a fervent believer in UFO theory and alien existence; AnnaMaria Demara (“War of the Worlds: Extinction”) as June, a resilient mom making up for lost time; and Jay Whitaker (“The Orville,” “Let’s Go To Prison”) as The Bad Guy, the film’s menacing antagonist.

“Beneath The Light,” the psychological thriller from writer/director John Baumgartner and starring soap alum Zach Tinker (“Days of our Lives,” “The Young and the Restless”), has officially received a release date. On Friday, Vision Films, the leading independent sales and VOD aggregator specializing in the licensing, marketing, and distribution of over 800 feature films, documentaries, and series from some of the most prolific independent film producers in the world, announced the film will be available on streaming and cable platforms across the US and Canada followed by DVD at online retailers on Tuesday, October 14. The film will also have a day-and-date release in the UK. Vision Films “Beneath the Light” follows an isolated, haunted lighthouse that is only reachable by boat, which becomes the battleground for a young man (Tinker) who takes a job repairing it. When the surly owner leaves him alone for lengthy periods of time, his feelings of isolation and uneasiness grow, and he is forced to come to grips with the mistakes of his past or risk losing his sanity forever. “This is an intense thriller with a shocking twist that draws you into the central character’s dilemma from the very first scene. What is real and what is imagined? ‘Beneath The Light’ will keep you guessing until the very end,” said Lise Romanoff, CEO and Managing Director of Vision Films. Co-written and produced by Dr. Cindy Davis Seng, a psychiatrist at the Cleveland Clinic, and filmed entirely on location in and around Lorain, Ohio, including the town’s iconic 108-year-old Lorain Lighthouse on Lake Erie, a local red carpet premiere for “Beneath The Light” took place at The Palace in Lorain on September 6, and is said to have inspired a murder mystery game and novelization. “Cindy and I set out to create a terrifying thriller rooted in horror, but with a core theme of redemption and healing from trauma not typically associated with the genre. We’re especially thrilled with the film’s unexpected twist, which ties the mystery together in a way audiences will find surprising and satisfying,” shared filmmaker John Baumgartner. In addition to Tinker, the film also stars John Pyper-Ferguson (“Suits”), Ana Nicolle Chavez (“The Rookie”), Kieran Sitawi (“The Starling Girl”) and Jennifer Ruth (“Spotlight”).

The wedding between Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian) and Christine Blair (Lauralee Bell) is set to take place this November, and fan favorites Tricia Cast (Nina Webster) and Patty Weaver (Gina Roma) will be in attendance as guests. Although air dates were unavailable at press time, according to Soap Opera Digest, which first reported the news, both Cast and Weaver are taping this week at the show’s Television Studio for their appearance in the special wedding episodes. Nina is Cricket’s best friend and Gina is Danny’s sister. Last seen on the soap in March 2024, Cast first joined the cast of the daytime drama series in June 1986, and won the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Younger Actress in a Drama Series category in 1992 for her portrayal. Since 2001, Cast has appeared in a recurring or guest capacity, including episodes aired throughout November 2008 and a more impactful run in 2009. In September 2013 and August 2014, Cast appeared for a handful of episodes. It wasn’t until 2020, and again in 2021, that Cast would return to Genoa City. Her other recent stints include appearing as part of the show’s 50th anniversary celebration and the 40th anniversary of Lauralee Bell in 2023. In July, Nina’s son, Phillip “Chance” Chancellor IV (Conner Floyd), was killed. A funeral for the character was held off-screen. As for Weaver, she first arrived in Genoa City in October 1982 and appeared for several years thereafter. By 2009, her appearances dwindled until she returned to town in 2013 for Katherine Chancellor’s funeral. She most recently appeared in 2023 for the show’s big anniversary celebration. Lauralee Bell Howard Wise/JPI Studios (Courtesy of CBS) Last month, “The Young and the Restless” held an online poll that had fans voting to determine which of three wedding gowns Cricket would wear during her wedding to Danny. On September 22, a second round of voting began with the top two choices remaining. The winning dress is expected to be revealed in the coming weeks.

The 2025-2026 television season began on Monday, September 22. With that, Nielsen formally introduced an adjusted tracking method called Big Data + Panel, which the measurement service notes will “bring human insights to the numbers in big data sets.” In addition to the 101,000 real people from the 42,000 households already tracked by Nielsen (the Panel), the new tracking method encompasses approximately 45 million Big Data households and 75 million devices from Comcast, Dish, DIRECTV, Roku and Vizio. “This yields a person-level measurement that is representative of the larger population at scale,” Nielsen notes, saying the impressions across screens allow a correction for “biases and other gaps” in its tracking. As a result, going forward, all national reporting for the current season will be based on Nielsen’s Big Data + Panel numbers, with prior figures compared against Nielsen’s Panel-only audience measurement unless otherwise noted. Despite the change in its tracking method, an initial assessment by Soap Opera Network indicates numbers for the week of September 22-26, 2025, as shown in the charts below (This Week), are in line with prior averages (Last Week and 2024 columns). Additionally, Big Data appears to favor news/talk programming more so than scripted dramas and game shows, which historically see lifts among delayed viewership (Live+3 and Live+7). Unfortunately, delayed figures are not currently available to this publication. Figures below continue to utilize Live+Same Day viewing. For the week, “The Price is Right” and “Let’s Make a Deal” launched Season 54 and Season 17, respectively, on CBS. The former remained on top across all key categories, while the latter came back to originals relatively on par with its year ago performance. Among Women 18-49, “Beyond the Gates” tied its series low with a 0.14 rating, while with its 0.17 rating, “The Young and the Restless” dropped below both “The Bold and the Beautiful” (0.20 rating) and “General Hospital” (0.18 rating). Three of the four network soaps set new series lows among Women 25-54, starting with “Beyond the Gates” (0.23 rating), followed by “The Bold and the Beautiful” (0.31 rating) and “The Young and the Restless” (0.32 rating). “General Hospital” tied its series low (0.25 rating). Except for “Beyond the Gates,” all daytime broadcast shows saw week-to-week gains among Total Viewers, led by “GMA3” (up +176,000), “NBC News Daily” (up +145,000), originals of “The Price is Right” (up +181,000 and +102,000, respectively), originals of “Let’s Make a Deal” (up +100,000 and +115,000, respectively), “The View (up +105,000) and “General Hospital” (up +94,000). “The Young and the Restless” saw a gain of just +7,000 viewers week-to-week, while “The Bold and the Beautiful” was up +35,000. Wrap-Up What follows is a breakdown of how the daytime broadcast shows performed during the week of September 22-26, 2025 among Women 18-49 rating, Women 25-54 rating, Households and Total Viewers, including week-to-week and year-over-year comparisons. Note*: Figures under the 2024 column for “Beyond the Gates” are compared to the performance of the former time slot occupant, “The Talk.” “TODAY with Jenna & Friends” is compared with the performance of its predecessor, “TODAY with Hoda & Jenna.” Meanwhile, “GMA3” is compared with the performance of its predecessor, “GMA3: What You Need to Know.” “The Price is Right” and “Let’s Make a Deal” aired repeats during the week of September 15-19, 2025 (Last Week). Last Week and 2024 columns are based on Nielsen Panel-only data. Comparisons under the 2024 column among Households and Total Viewers were unavailable to this publication for most daytime broadcast shows until at least February 2025. Households and Total Viewers were not available at press time for “TODAY 3rd Hour” or “TODAY with Jenna & Friends.” Rankings will be updated as soon as those figures become available.

Thanks for letting me know, everyone. I also had been experiencing the error message you all had mentioned, but there was no definitive solution available until it got out of control yesterday. While I can't say for sure it is gone forever, at least the issue seems to have calmed down quite a bit. Thanks for confirming, at least for now.

It might be better off airing Fridays at 8:00 p.m., if NBC can make the budget cost-effective. The premiere on Monday, September 22 at 10:00 p.m. averaged just 2.3 million viewers, while a repeat aired on Friday, September 26 averaged 1.426 million. Not bad at all for a repeat. If new episodes can pull what it did on Mondays, but on a Friday, that wouldn't be considered a bad thing to NBC, especially if the Peacock numbers can be juiced. Outside of Law & Order: Organized Crime, which is now a Peacock original series and has already released all the episodes set to air on NBC this fall, and averaged 2.218 million viewers last week, only Dateline had fewer viewers on NBC than Brilliant Minds. Dateline did just 2.194 million on Friday, September 26, at 10:00 p.m.

Former “Big Brother” winner Rachel Reilly is heading back to “The Bold and the Beautiful” in November when she reprises her role as Rachel, a server at Bikini Bar, who also has a side hustle as an “energy healer and spiritual cleanser.” Set to appear in at least two episodes airing on Thursday, November 13 and Friday, November 14, Reilly will share scenes with Don Diamont (Bill Spencer), Heather Tom (Katie Logan) and Scott Clifton (Liam Spencer). According to Entertainment Weekly, which first reported the news, Reilly’s character is said to have “experiences with toxic houses,” a nod to her time in the “Big Brother” house, including her most recent arrival this summer during the long-running reality show’s 27th season. Reilly previously appeared on the competition series in Season 12 and Season 13, with the latter season seeing her crowned the winner of the game. “I shook the ‘Big Brother 27’ house with boldness, beauty, and a touch of betrayal,” said Reilly to Entertainment Weekly while discussing her return to the half-hour soap opera. “So naturally, I’m stepping back into the Forrester world — where drama meets couture. As an icon, I serve both and couldn’t be more excited to be back.” In addition to “Big Brother,” Reilly has also been a competitor on such shows as “The Amazing Race,” “The Traitors,” “Celebrity Fear Factor,” and “Snake in the Grass.” She previously appeared in more than two dozen episodes of “The Bold and the Beautiful” between 2010 and 2014.
