Harvey Weinstein interrupting BTG? ugh.

https://x.com/TVInsider/status/1932842655219666946 Jack Wagner Explains Nick’s Surprise Return.. in Italy! https://www.tvinsider.com/1196817/bold-and-the-beautiful-jack-wagner-return-nick-brooke-italy-details/ Wagner's concept who Nick Marone would be now and what he told Brad Bell: I wanted this character to be different, because he lived on the Shady Marlin when I was on the show, and I had a little beard and I smoked,” Wagner points out. “I said, ‘Brad, I think this guy’s got to be more sophisticated. He owns and runs Marone Industry. I think his dress code is more stylized. He’s a shipping tycoon. He’s confident. When he comes back, he has the ability to charm Brooke [Logan, Katherine Kelly Lang]. He has the ability to take moments and be very intimate with her about the truth. And when Ridge comes in, it’s got to be like a fly on his shoulder. He fears nothing.’ Nick’s primary motivation [of] why he’s back [is that] he tells Brooke, ‘I’ve heard that your heart’s broken again, and I’m here to try to wake you up out of this toxic pattern you’ve got going on with Ridge and the Forrester family,’ which gave me a lot of different layers to play, not only with Kelly, but also with Thorsten [Kaye, Ridge Forrester]. I loved it.

Week of June 16: A Dumas gala and the Billy Flynn debut source: tvguide/soapcentral interview with Billy Flynn, on casting thread here: https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/68394-daysyr-casting-shocker/?do=findComment&comment=2029526

TV Guide interview with Billy Flynn from TV Guide print magazine issue dated June 16 quoted by Michael Maloney for soapcentral https://www.soapcentral.com/young-and-restless/news-billy-flynn-speaks-out-joining-the-young-restless-leaving-days-lives Flynn does not reveal who he'll be playing on Y&R. Flynn is "set to debut the week of June 16. That coincides with the big gala that Aristotle Dumas is set to throw." "I love the people at [DAYS]," "but I felt like my version of Chad had run its course. It wasn't for money. I wanted to feel excited again about the work, and I wanted to work with different people and learn more." In the interview, it says that Josh Griffith reached out to Flynn directly. "The universe works in mysterious ways, and Josh called at the right time," Flynn adds. The actor says there's a certain gamble in leaving a role he's been very successful in for a new part, but he feels this is the right move. "So, my wife and I talked, and I made the decision to take the jump," he says. "I'm really glad I did." On his first day, he worked with Eric Braeden.

Andrew has to be there for Paul, *if* we see a wedding. Hope had to be there for Bo for Bo's illness. None of the spouses of the other returns were shown over past two weeks. We saw: Ciara but not Ben. Eric but not Nicole. Shane but not Kimberly. Carrie but not Austin. Will but not Sonny. Anna but not Tony. Regarding Tony: Obviously they wouldn't have Nicole, due to Ari Z's legal situation still unresolved. But my point is, at least they were consistent in having all the spouses missing these recent weeks, unless they were needed for Pandrew and Bope.

Julie was in Monday's episode as the funeral guests were arriving. She wasn't shown Tues. or Wed. photos https://i.imgur.com/ijOIAoU.png https://wornontv.net/518642/

As said above Access Hollywood said the funeral would air June 9 & 10, but the funeral actually aired June 9, 10 & 11. Their preview video included some funeral footage, so perhaps that entire Access Hollywood segment that that recently aired, was filmed back in September. *A few* of the spoiler pics that multiple outlets (including SOD) announced as being for Tues. June 10, actually aired Wed. June 11. Since multiple outlets made that error, I speculate that the photos were correctly labeled by JPI Photography Studios as being for a specific episode at the time of filming, but some of the scenes were *maybe* later split/rearranged during the editing process into different episodes. Nobody's fault about the dates confusion. A lot of cast/crew/staff/writers were all grieving; and also adjusting for the returns of actors and various last-minute circumstances. The funeral was filmed just before Drake died, and then the scenes were edited after he died. 😢 How any of the cast/crew/staff were even functional is amazing.

Jack Wagner in-depth interviews previewing his return arc (Two new interviews, from SOD and from tvinsider) On the Wagner casting return thread here: https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/68653-bb-veteran-actor-returns/?do=findComment&comment=2029490 (He returns June 16.)

https://bsky.app/profile/soapoperadigest.bsky.social/post/3lrdhofp7gk2h Jack Wagner previews his return as Nick Marone https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/jack-wagner-previews-his-jaw-dropping-bold-and-beautiful-return-exclusive/ Confirmation that his return date is Monday June 16. This will be an arc of episodes, filmed in between Wagner's other commitments. With a possible option for a future return of Nick whenever Wagner has time again. Great article, lots of indepth info about where Nick Marone is now in life and how he will interact with Brooke and ... LOL Wagner says Nick isn't wishy-washy like Ridge! @Maxim

From what actors have said, Y&R has been very busy taping the upcoming storyline, and that was up to and including the week of Diamont's party, and after.

@YRfan23 I just got the June 10 episode on cbs.com The closing credits also show Theodore and Vincent Simard. The Simard twins just played Bo Weston (Bo Brady's grandson) on Days during week of June 2-6. (Days episodes that were taped back in September 2024.)

New interview from Peter Reckell https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/dayss-peter-reckell-on-his-deep-connection-to-deidre-hall-exclusive/ Bo and Hope arrive at John’s memorial service just as it’s winding down, and Bo gets to have a poignant face-to-face with Marlena. “When he walks into the memorial service, everybody is about to leave. The service is about to break up,” recounts Reckell. Bo then makes his way to Marlena. “I go to Dee [Hall, Marlena],” the actor continues. We have like two sentences, and it’s just us looking at each other. And, as always with her, the connection is immediate and deep and powerful. I’m looking into her eyes and seeing the pain in them, and she’s looking into mine.” The scene reminded Reckell of one he’d shared with Hall decades ago that was equally as powerful and emotional. “It was when Bo had to tell Marlena that Roman had passed away in the story,” says Reckell, referencing a 1984 DAYS plotline. “That connection with the two of us has always been there” **** Note: this SOD article says that Bo flies from Greece to Salem for John's memorial. We know that's an error (or perhaps the show is confused.) @JAS0N47 has spoken with the show's publicist who said that Bo is in a hospital in Salem. (perhaps the show/writers were confused? Maybe Bo has recently been in a hospital vaguely in the region of Salem? ? ? ?)

UPDATE: We were told by Access Hollywood piece that the funeral airs Monday June 9 and Tuesday June 10. But we can see from the daily spoilers that the funeral continues into Wednesday June 11. Re: all the batches of photos listed for Tuesday June 10 -- Some of those scenes didn't air on that date. (especially the Bo and Hope scenes) [Bo and Hope at the funeral airs Wed. June 11] Bo debates doctor orders Tues. June 10, then defies them and arrives at the funeral on Wed. June 11. speculation: I wonder if episodes were split because there was so much to air?

Lisa Yamada now listed with the noncontract actors. (She was listed on contract in the June 4th credits). This seems to be a new actor playing Hayes. @YRfan23 regarding contract status and episode counts etc. see above posts -- Yamada contract week of Tues June 3 - Mon June 9. Yamada noncontract week of Tues June 10 - Mon June 16.

The B&B closing credits for actors air on various weekdays, but usually once per week. Normally, the cast is listed for the "Monday through Friday week" -- the week which includes the weekday in which those credits air. I just checked. Closing credits at end of Wednesday June 4: Normally they would have been for Mon-Fri June 2-6, but they're not. They include Christian Weissman as Remy Price, but he didn't start airing until Monday June 9. So, therefore, the closing credits from Wednesday June 4 are *actually* for Tuesday June 3 through Monday June 9. I assume they forgot to adjust the preedited episodes after the May 8 preemption -- it would have been simple to redo only the actor credits and splice in the edit, but they didn't. I guess I could go back and check every closing credits for the prior few weeks (since May 8th) and see if the same thing applies- - to check if the actor credits are for "the week of Tuesday through Monday". That would mean I'd need to know which noncontract actors are listed, and when they actually aired. I think the closing credits that aired Tuesday June 10th might be for Tuesday June 10 through Monday June 16? That would explain Jack Wagner. We know that Wagner's first airdate was announced back in April, that he'd start airing Friday June 13; but the May 8 preemption probably pushed his return to Monday June 16.

I really like the scenes between Dani and Andre today. Regardless of where this goes or who they end up with. For now I appreciate that they have honesty with one another. There's deep truth and vulnerability. More than before.

I really like Tracy!

Madison says Bill is improving but still needs to be in the hospital. Bill comments that he thought the procedures would have made him good as new. Chelsea says to Bill. "She's a doctor, not a miracle worker". LOL at Star Trek reference

^ thanks. I have some thoughts, will update in next post.

noted. thanks
