Y&R:

• Victor is on the warpath to expose Ashland’s devious lie, but the Locke Ness Monster is three steps ahead of the Black Knight as he executes his nefarious plans as the two go head for head. Victoria’s response will leave the rest of the Newman clan dumbfounded!
• The Baldwin clan is horrified as Michael may be in grave danger in Peru for exposing the truth about Ashland!
• As the devastated Abbott family reels from the loss of Keemo, a new mysterious young woman comes to Genoa City to establish ties to the city. Meanwhile Jack and Phyllis find solace in each other’s arms as Phyllis schools Jack on the importance of family.
• Mariah and Tessa continue to fend off a lurking Noah and get to finally share some special moments together, but things may turn topsy-turvy when Tessa becomes green-eyed over Noah’s new “friend”!
• Amanda becomes bewildered over differences of opinions while she is concerned over Devon and Abby. Meanwhile as Chance seeks help with his PTSD he develops more than a close bond with a surprising individual!
• Chelsea continues to have her sights set on Rey, and plots to whisk him away from his doldrum marriage!

B&B:

• Carter and Paris give into temptation, and Grace is absolutely floored! The truth will have a ripple effect  as Grace explodes!
• Bill and Wyatt return to L.A. to share some news that will leave Liam feeling left out of the Spencer Publications loop!
• Thomas and Sheila will be forced to go head to head over Sheila’s place in the family. Thomas learns the truth about Sheila’s deception regarding Brooke, but the ball is his court as he ponders whether to expose Sheila or help her maintain secret!
• Ridge and Taylor are shocked when Eric expresses his disgust over their newfound closeness. Meanwhile Steffy and Quinn cheer the pairing on as Brooke continues her downward spiral.
• History will repeat itself when Deacon finds himself comforting a brokenhearted Brooke, and the pair may not be to resist temptation!
• Look for the biggest plot twist in show history to ever occur (bigger than Sheila’s 2017 return and Maya being transgender!) , one that will leave viewers gobsmacked for years to come!

Unless Phoebe turns out to be Finn I can't see anything that shocking about a dead person showing up alive on a soap. 

Another weird thing is that B&B has been promoting this twist/event for quite some time. They never did that before with things like Maya's revelation or Sheila's return.

The show is insanely dull right now which is probably why they’re hyping this. I didn’t even realize they were celebrating their 35th anniversary this year. Normally that’s something fans would be looking forward to and talking about. 
 

All this hype and whatever this twist is, is just another Brad Bell attempt to generate temporary buzz when the show is in the crapper.

 

Brooke at 60 should not be in some dumb story where the plot hinges on her kissing her ex. She's done much worse to literally everyone in her life and this is what Ridge rages over? Dumb.

Steffy having been Phoebe for almost 1-2 years worth of story would be a pretty huge/hilarious twist, imo. 

The Bell soaps, both boring in their own unique ways.

That's the only way it would make sense. 
I mean, it *wouldn't* but from the POV of the thing they are trying to hype that would be unexpected alright.

Would be a bit weird to launch a double-role story for JMW (in a vacuum, she is totally Bell's pet so he would) right before she goes on pregnancy leave but I agree that the whole Phoebe name drop AND the entire weird insistence Thomas and Steffy kids have for reuniting their parents might not turn out to be innocent and is intended to set something up.
I remember that KA is the first one who started mentioning the twist so I imagine Taylor is involved in the story.

Of course if it is Phoebe who fell in love with Finn, the way Bell would manage to screw us over is if it means Steffy, wherever she is, is still hung up on Liam.
But please let it be Morgan who is responsible for this. Story-wise it would make huge sense. But they are going to make it Sheila, aren't they?

Tracey Bregman on Lauren's search for Michael

Oh, Lauren, let him go.  You are so better off without him.

I can’t believe we still don’t know what this twist on B&B is or even when it airs. You’d think they’d want to promote it if it’s as game changing as they say. 

At the very least, there could be one of those overblown, on-air promos:

"BIGGEST. TWIST. EVER.  After [Enter Date Here], 'The Bold & the Beautiful' Will NEVER Be The Same."

Do these flashbacks of Brooke and Stephanie mean residuals for Susan Flannery?

Casting note:

Abdur Wyatt appeared as a worker at Il Giardino on Dec. 29, 2021. The closing credits for week of Dec. 27th said his role was "bartender" and gave no character name. Deacon called the character "Malcolm" and so did the closed-captioning. Malcolm was working when Sheila sneaked in and substituted the bottle of real champagne for the nonalcoholic one, in the box of booze to be delivered to Brooke. He didn't know she had done this as he finished preparing the box for Brooke.

SOD says he reappears as the bartender during week of March 14 - in scenes with Deacon and Sheila.

Here's his picture:
