  1. Back in February, “General Hospital” star Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones) revealed in a series of videos posted on Instagram that she was dealing with a serious situation involving “devices being hacked” after her move to Tennessee last year, during which her cell phone, internet, and iCloud account were allegedly compromised. “I know it’s been over a month, two months since I was on Instagram, discussing my devices being hacked in the apartment I moved into in Franklin at the Legacy Cool Springs Building,” said Storms in a new video shared on the platform on Thursday, April 9. “Just an update, really quick, because I know I’ve just kind of been unable to get on my Instagram,” Storms continued. “The cell phone where my Instagram app is logged in is the one I was using when I lived there, and when I log on and connected to WiFi, certain things start happening with it. Emails are deleted, photos are deleted. Videos of things that I’ve submitted or uploaded to the Franklin Police Department, so I’m recording this actually on one of my old phones, and I’m going to send it to that and then upload it as fast as I can and then turn that device off. There is still an investigation going on through the Franklin Police Department.” Though it’s unclear if that was the intent, the video was seemingly cut off before Storms could continue sharing more about the situation. Meanwhile, her post included additional photos of damage to what appears to be an apartment door, likely from her former residence. In one of her videos from February, Storms explained that the situation began in December, when someone “accessed my apartment, and they were relentlessly getting on my internet and doing stuff to my accounts.” She reported the incident to the Franklin Police, but she also shared details online to see if she could get assistance from someone working in the cybersecurity sector. “If you could please DM me if you know someone, or like a retired police officer, somebody who specializes in this sort of thing, I would really appreciate it,” she said at the time. Storms returned on-screen as Maxie Jones on “General Hospital” in February after taking a multi-month medical sabbatical. She returned on contract with the show, though eagle-eyed viewers noticed her name missing from the contract section during the show’s end credits each of the last two weeks. Despite returning to the show on contract status less than two months ago, Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones) is now off contract #GH #GeneralHospital https://t.co/NYmkBv9bzu — Brett (@vicksvapor77) April 3, 2026 Note: The post ‘General Hospital’ Star Kirsten Storms Updates Followers On “Devices Being Hacked” first appeared on Soap Opera Network.

  2. Dear Members, Please be advised that we have used filters to block inappropriate language on the SON Community for a reason. Being cute by using different spellings of a word, or even emojis, to emphasize your point is not acceptable and will only result in the loss of the community itself, not just your individual posting privileges. Recently, we were informed by our ad network that advertisers are unwilling to have their ads placed on threads/posts where such foul language or inappropriate behavior exists, citing "risk to brand safety." I know Toups and I are just two people, but I think we've done a phenomenal job managing the community over the years without policing people's ability to post what they want or issuing warnings on every single occasion, giving posters mostly free rein in commenting on anything and everything they want to discuss. That cannot be taken advantage of, and it cannot be the reason this place loses its ability to sustain itself. That said, please be more mindful of your word choice and your behavior toward other posters. It is vital that this is understood. -- SON Community Admin
  3. To emphasize what it means for the show to be nearly 400 episodes into production, CBS will air episodes 268-272 next week. The Easter episode (#262), which aired on April 3, was taped just before Thanksgiving.
  4. Per Travis J. Smith, the show's head of technology, as of three days ago, "Beyond the Gates" has taped nearly 400 episodes. This means we are very close to the 238 episodes supposedly ordered for Season 2, so Season 3 would need a green light soon, considering the first 200 were for Season 1. LinkedInTime flies—now we’re approaching nearly 400 episodes at C...Time flies—now we’re approaching nearly 400 episodes at CBS Studio’s Beyond The Gates filming at Assembly Studios in Atlanta, driven by long days, high pressure, and delivering 80 to 100 pages daily.
  5. It could happen this month, next month or in June, due to maybe awaiting word on how the show performs with the Y&R crossover. I'd hope this month, though, because they are filming five months ahead as it is. They'd need time to script a finale if CBS opts against continuing, which I doubt they will. Demos could be better, but viewership and the ability to put the show on BET, Pluto TV and Paramount+ with an actual audience tuning in are a plus for the soap opera, as The Talk didn't have value outside of live linear viewing.
  6. On Thursday, CBS formally made its final primetime pickup for the 2026-2027 television season, giving a series order to one of the two comedy pilots it had it left contention for next season, “Eternally Yours,” which joins a robust lineup of returning favorites. The news leaves the daytime soap opera “Beyond the Gates” as the only remaining scripted series awaiting word on its future at the network. In a recent interview with SheKnows Soaps, executive producer Julie Hanan Carruthers addressed the matter, saying, “There’s no official word yet, but we’re jamming like it’s happening!” Her comments on a potential third season followed discussion on the upcoming crossover with fellow soap opera “The Young and the Restless,” which is scheduled to air in June on the network. “It validates both of our worlds when we’re referencing each other’s characters,” she said about the crossover, noting that the opportunity to mix characters from Genoa City with those in Fairmont Crest is “a nice little gift for the audiences.” That said, things can be a bit of “a coordination nightmare!” In May 2025, CBS ordered a second season of “Beyond the Gates” just a week after stars Daphnée Duplaix (Dr. Nicole Dupree Richardson) and Trisha Mann-Grant (Dana “Leslie” Thomas) revealed on Instagram Live that they were awaiting word from the network about a renewal. “When are we gonna find out if we got picked up? We’re still waiting,” commented Duplaix at the time. “I mean, why are you torturing me? Why are you doing this?” she added with a laugh. Unlike last year’s pickup for Season 2, a decision on a possible Season 3 is expected as early as this month, due to CBS moving its upfront presentation, where it unveils its schedule for the following season to advertisers and the press, to Wednesday, April 15, up from the traditional presentation in May. In addition to “Eternally Yours,” CBS has also picked up dramas “Cupertino” and “Einstein,” the latter of which stars “One Life to Live” alum Melissa Fumero as the female lead, working opposite Matthew Gray Gubler (“Criminal Minds”), who plays the titular character. Debuting February 24, 2025, “Beyond the Gates” is the first new network serial to debut since the July 1999 launch of “Passions” on NBC. It is also the first time since September 2010 that CBS has had more than two scripted dramas in its daytime lineup, following the cancellation of “As The World Turns,” which was replaced by “The Talk,” which ran for 15 seasons before it was canceled. Michael Mealor, Peter Bergman, Susan Walters, Eric Braeden, Bryton James, Melissa Ordway, Clifton Davis, Tamara Tunie Cast members from “The Young and the Restless” set to appear in June’s multi-episode crossover event with “Beyond the Gates” include Bryton James (Devon Winters), Eric Braeden (Victor Newman), Peter Bergman (Jack Abbott), Michael Mealor (Kyle Abbott), Susan Walters (Diane Abbott) and Melissa Ordway, who plays Abby, Devon’s wife and Victor’s daughter. The ambitious storyline will see longtime close friends Vernon Dupree (Clifton Davis) and the powerful patriarch of the Newman family, the legendary Victor Newman, reunite at a high-profile political fundraiser. In story, Victor has backed Vernon’s political campaigns over the years while Vernon has championed legislation benefiting Newman Enterprises, an alliance built on loyalty, influence, and mutual gain. Now, Vernon has asked Victor to serve as the keynote speaker at his grandson Martin’s (Brandon Claybon) fundraiser. Friends with Martin since they first bonded in New York City after college, Kyle Abbott looks forward to attending the fundraiser after Martin extends him an invitation. Kyle will arrive alongside his parents, Jack and Diane. Abby and Devon are also on the VIP guest list and will see Devon fielding an unexpected business opportunity from Anita Dupree (Tamara Tunie). As the evening unfolds, a shocking event occurs, abruptly derailing the fundraiser and triggering dramatic consequences that will affect every guest in attendance. Though the second-ever crossover event between “Beyond the Gates” and “The Young and the Restless,” this will be the third time the new soap opera has crossed over with a CBS sibling, following a crossover event with “The Bold and the Beautiful” in October 2025, which saw Thorsten Kaye appear as his Ridge Forrester character from the half-hour drama series. Created and executive produced by Michele Val Jean, who also serves as showrunner and head writer, “Beyond the Gates” is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington, D.C., in one of the most affluent African American counties in the United States, and follows an affluent Black family, the Duprees, who hold court over Fairmont Crest, a posh gated community that’s the center of luxury with wealthy residents harboring deep secrets. Behind the pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. Joining Val Jean and Carruthers as executive producers are Sheila Ducksworth, Tracey Thompson, Leon W. Russell and Derrick Johnson, among others.

  7. “Being back in Genoa City has been incredible,” says Vivica A. Fox, discussing her return to “The Young and the Restless” as Dr. Stephanie Simmons, a character she originally played on the daytime drama series more than 30 years ago. She’s once again sharing scenes with Shemar Moore, who plays Malcolm Winters, and has returned alongside Fox for a multi-episode story arc. This marks the first time that Fox has appeared on the series since concluding her short run in 1995. Since exiting, the actress has made a name for herself in Hollywood outside of soaps, starring in numerous films and television projects, including “Independence Day,” “Batman & Robin,” “Soul Food,” “Kill Bill Vol. 1,” “1-800-Missing” and “Empire,” and a long list of Lifetime original movies, among others. “I love our cast. I love the writing,” notes Fox about working on a soap opera again, adding, “Working with the cast and crew has been amazing. It’s a wonderful place to be.” “Sometimes when you do projects or hear about projects, it’s brewing for a little while,” shared Fox, detailing the process that eventually led to her agreeing to return to the series. “This was like boom. ‘Vivica, ‘Young and the Restless’ called for you.’ And I was like, ‘For what?’ They’re like, ‘They want you to come back for an arc.’ And I was like, ‘Let’s go for it. I’d love that.’ And then I met with them, and they told me the storyline and what everything was going to be about, but it was absolutely a no-brainer to come back.” Returning To Soaps “It was like getting acclimated at first because we had tons of dialogue,” said Fox of getting back into the grind of working on a soap opera more than 30 years later. “That’s the one thing with soaps, you’ve got to show up, you’ve got to know your lines. They move very quickly.” She added, “To me, soap operas [have] some of the hardest working actors. Thirty years ago, doing a soap was like going to acting school 101. I was able to learn lines so quickly. The education that I got from working on a soap opera has been immeasurable for my career.” Shemar Moore, Vivica A. Fox Working with Shemar Moore [Most of] my scenes were with Shemar,” recalled Fox of working opposite Moore during their earlier runs in the mid-1990s. “Shemar was the new hot kid on the block. So most of my memories here for ‘Young and the Restless’ were with Shemar because they had set us up. And at first, I was kind of pushing him away. I can remember me and Shemar both being so young, but doing well. I mean, a lot of presence, a lot of chemistry, and it’s been nice to have this wonderful reunion with him.” Words For The Fans “I just want to say to all of our ‘Young and the Restless’ fans out there, stay tuned,” commented Fox in a message to fans of the show as they anticipate where the storyline is headed. “You are in for a wonderful treat to see your girl, Vivica A. Fox and Shemar back on. Thank you, guys, for your wonderful comments. Thank you, guys, for your tons of views, but stay tuned and watch it unfold. Don’t be trying to guess everything.” Memorable Moment – Stephanie and Malcolm This Week’s On ‘Y&R’ Promo Return of Stephanie Simmons Note: The post “They Move Very Quickly,” Says Vivica A.

  8. There will not be a second season of Prime Video’s YA series “The Runarounds,” which starred former “General Hospital” actor William Lipton (ex-Cameron Webber). The series, which premiered last September on the streaming service, features real-life members of The Runarounds band, which includes Lipton, as part of a group of recent high school graduates from Wilmington, North Carolina, who come together the summer after graduation to form a rock band, united by their shared love of music and near-impossible dream of stardom. Over the course of one unforgettable summer, they throw themselves into the pursuit of their big break—falling in love, getting into trouble, and building the kind of bonds that feel like family along the way. Real-life band members Axel Ellis, Jeremy Yun, Zendé Murdock and Jesse Golliher joined Lipton in the series, which also starred Lilah Pate, Maximo Salas, Kelley Pereira, Marley Aliah, Mark Wystrach, Brooklyn Decker, Hayes MacArthur and Shea Pritchard. In addition to sharing a photo collage on Instagram highlighting his experience working with the cast and crew, Lipton said in the post caption, “No season 2 it’s a bummer but just wanted to express my deepest love and gratitude for everything and everyone involved with this project.” “It’s been an insane almost 6 years and my life has been forever changed for the better,” continued Lipton. “Big thank you to everyone who watched and supported. We’ll catch you futhermuckers on the road got plenty more shows and more coming if yall want keep dreaming no small dream and write love songs that change the world.” Responding to Lipton’s post, Robert Adamson (ex-Michael Corinthos, “General Hospital”; ex-Noah Newman, ” The Young and the Restless”) said, “I’m sorry man! Was an absolute pleasure taking my daughter to your Show in SD! We were really rooting for you! You are all super stars!” Robert Palmer Watkins, who also previously starred on “General Hospital” as Dillon Quartermaine, and musically goes by the name Palmer, responded to Adamson’s post, commenting, “Kind words, brother. He’s right. Only the beginning @williamlipton keep shining.” Produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Skydance Television, executive producers include Jonas Pate, Joon Yun, David Wilcox, Josh Pate, Shannon Burke, Scott Lambert, and Lisa Mae Fincannon, with David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Matt Thunell for Skydance Television. Music from the official soundtrack, including “Funny How The Universe Works” and “Senior Year,” was released through Arista Records at series launch. “Senior Year” was the first song written and recorded by the real-life band. On Tuesday, April 7, The Runarounds band kicks off their 19-city tour, titled “The Minivan Tour,” with a sold out crowd in Toronto, ON. Other stops include Buffalo, NY; Cleveland, OH; Atlanta, GA; Richmond, VA; New Orleans, LA; Orlando, FL; and Jacksonville, FL.

  9. On Tuesday, April 7, fans of “The Young and the Restless” will see the long-awaited return of Shemar Moore and Vivica A. Fox as Malcolm Winters and Dr. Stephanie Simmons, respectively. Though Moore has been back in Genoa City several times over the years since concluding his original 1994-2005 run as Malcolm, this marks the first time since 1995 for Fox, who has made a name for herself in Hollywood outside of soaps starring in numerous films and television projects, including “Independence Day,” “Batman & Robin,” “Soul Food,” “Kill Bill Vol. 1,” “1-800-Missing” and “Empire,” and a long list of Lifetime original movies, among others. As for Moore, he’s gone on to star as a lead in several series, including “Criminal Minds,” “S.W.A.T.,” and its upcoming sequel, “S.W.A.T. Exiles.” He made special appearances on “The Young and the Restless” in 2014, 2019, and more recently, 2023, which was in honor of the show’s 50th anniversary celebration, and saw his character take part in the hanging of a portrait of his late brother, Neil Winters (the late Kristoff St. John), which was unveiled as a tribute. The storyline that brings their characters back to town in 2026 involves Malcolm receiving a life-altering medical diagnosis that requires family intervention, specifically from his daughter, Lily (Christel Khalil). Meanwhile, Stephanie is revealed to be Holden’s mother (Nathan Owens), and she has some news of her own to share with him. In an interview with TV Insider, Moore talked about reuniting with Fox, with whom he also starred in the 2004 thriller “Motives,” which also starred Golden Brooks (“Girlfriends”) and Sean Blakemore (ex- Shawn Butler”General Hospital”). “Vivica’s done what she’s done, and she’s a sweetheart, and we’ve kept up,” said Moore. “She calls me Shemarsky. I’ve had a lot of nicknames, but there’s one person in this world that calls me Shemarsky, and that’s Vivica Fox. I just heard from down the hallway, ‘Shemarsky!’ and I was like, ‘Vivica is in the building.’” Fox told the outlet, “Stephanie is back, and Stephanie has a lot of secrets that will be revealed.” Check out a memorable moment from 1995 between Stephanie and Malcolm below.

  14. Currently filming in Canada, “An Accidental Arctic Christmas” is just one of several movies set to premiere later this year as part of Great American Family’s Great American Christmas programming block. Starring in the project are Cameron Mathison (“General Hospital”) and Jill Wagner (“Lioness”), who are reuniting after most recently starring together in “A Merry Christmas Wish” for the network run by Bill Abbott, President & CEO of Great American Media, parent of Great American Family and its companion streaming service Great American Pure Flix, among other platforms. “An Accidental Arctic Christmas” follows single dad Jim (Mathison), a former major league baseball player turned broadcaster, and his spirited, science-minded 20-year-old daughter, Isla (Maya Rose Skabar), who share a tradition of alternating who decides how they spend Christmas each year. While Jim never misses hosting his annual Christmas Eve show from Times Square, Isla persuades him to take a once-in-a-lifetime Arctic cruise, promising they will return in time for his broadcast. When a timing mix-up leaves them stranded in an arctic town after their ship departs without them, their carefully planned holiday quickly turns into an unforgettable adventure. With no planes, trains, or automobiles available, they must rely on wildlife conservationist Jane (Wagner) and her rugged tundra buggy to navigate the frozen wilderness. As they journey through the awe-inspiring Arctic — from the glow of the Aurora Borealis to the famed Polar Bear Capital of the World — Isla embraces nature’s glory, Jim wrestles with letting go of control, and Jane brings heart and charm to the path forward. On Wednesday, April 1, Mathison teased the news about the film and pondered to fans about his co-star in a post on X (formerly Twitter). The only thing cooler than this movie location is the cast we have starring in it! Who do you think is joining Cameron Mathison? Drop your guesses below! Stay tuned—big reveal coming soon! pic.twitter.com/veIqpQKYIu — Pure Flix (@PureFlix) April 2, 2026 “This year’s Great American Christmas represents a maturation of our business and the highest level of talent and storytelling we have ever brought to the screen,” said Abbott of this year’s lineup of Christmas movies. “From beloved stars to richly layered stories, every film reflects our commitment to creative excellence. Our success as a business in the five years since launch has allowed us to reinvest in content that will yield our most compelling and complete Christmas slate to date and will be a true celebration of the reason for the season.” Written by Robin Dunne and Arcade Riley, “An Accidental Arctic Christgmas” is a Magic Motion Media production in association with CandyRock Entertainment. Candace Cameron Bure is executive producer along with Jeffery Brooks, Ford Englerth, Tim Owens, Eric Jarboe, Holly A. Hines and Robin Dunne. Caitlin Delaney serves as producer. Michael Shepard, Justin Kelly and Pino Halili serve as supervising producers, along with Kathy Ceroni and Laurie Singleton as associate producers. Mathison will also star opposite Bure in another holiday film lined up at Great American Family for 2026, this one titled “Home Sweet Anniversary,” which will be the third film in the “Home Sweet” franchise and a sequel to last year’s successful theatrical film, “Another Sweet Christmas.” Note: The post Great American Family Announces ‘An Accidental Arctic Christmas’, Reuniting Stars Jill Wagner & Cameron Mathison first appeared on Soap Opera Network.

As the soap turned 63 on Wednesday, April 1, “General Hospital” executive producer Frank Valentini took to social media to thank the fans for tuning in after all these years, while also teasing “big plans” for the show looking ahead. “I would like to take a moment and thank all of the fans who have helped @GeneralHos2pital reach its 63rd Anniversary,” commented Valentini on X (formerly Twitter). “Today is a very special day and celebrating it with all of you means the world to us. We have big plans going into this new season. Stay tuned.” While not giving any specific details away in his message, the daytime drama series has a few storylines winding up to whet the appetite of its viewers, including the return of Nathan Dean (formerly Parsons) as Ethan Lovett this month, the reveal that Nathan West is actually Cassius Faison (Ryan Paevey), how Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) will deal with Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes) killing his boyfriend, Marco, and how the city will rally in support of a traumatized Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr), plus the multi-episode story arc featuring “Aladdin” on Broadway star Michael James Scott, among numerous other storylines. Valentini has been executive producer of “General Hospital” since 2012, making him the longest-serving EP in the show’s history, surpassing James Young, at 14 years. He previously served in the same capacity at “One Life to Live.” Under his guidance, the long-running soap opera has earned seven Emmy Awards for Outstanding Daytime Drama Series, five of which were consecutively, including the show’s win in 2025.
