From SoapDirt. First up is Y&R:

• The aftermath of Rey’s death will put Chance in a difficult spot, but it will be  push him into emotional recovery and honoring Rey will finally give him  salvation and purpose he needs.
• Adam and Sally finally find happiness as they are a couple and equals in love, but trouble looms when control of Newman-Locke drama rears it’s ugly head again!

Meanwhile as Billy ponders his place in the new company he finds himself developing a a very surprising connection with a new woman much to both Lily and Victoria’s chagrin!

 

B&B:

• The day of reckoning comes for Sheila as all of her crimes will be revealed in a shocking manner, but Sheila may have the laugh!

That speaks volumes...

LMAO I didn’t even notice that until you mentioned it. I was still stuck on “tangled web that Phyllis weaves as she practices to deceive” mess that I suppose as Josh Griffith wants to remind us he took Shakespeare and English Literature in college. 🤣
 

Also found it funny that SoapDirt’s usual email newsletter barely mentioned any B&B spoilers. Another sign of how tiny the cast is there these days.

“tangled web that Phyllis weaves as she practices to deceive”

LOL soapdirt made that up and also says Phyllis is destablized. But that's not in SOD at all.  Entertaining though. 
SOD says Phyllis just wants to bury Diane, LOL, but it's a figure of speech. 

I don't know anything; but my speculation is that Phyllis is going to try to do whatever she can expose Diane as dangerous or whatever, to keep Diane away from Summer and Kyle.  More like Phyllis assuming that Diane will deceive.

There's nothing about Imani in SOD either, but soapdirt's prediction of her flirting with Nate is a safe bet since it happens once every month or two. (sigh) SOD does mention a "conflict" between Nate/Elana because Nate will be working long hours as an executive. (a non-story, I guess).

The Teriah wedding preview in SOD doesn't mention Noah.  It's reasonable to predict he'd be interfering, because that's what he does, but SOD doesn't even mention him anywhere.
I don't think I am allowed to quote an an entire article, but I will quote this paragraph:
About the Teriah wedding, Griffith says "Their wedding will be emotionally significant and a huge event. This will be a wedding unlike anything you’ve ever seen in daytime. It’ll be spectacular and heartfelt and wild and romantic and crazy-in-love beautiful."

SOD says Jill comes to town for the Chancellor/Winters Media launch party but it doesn't says she's pushy or indignant about that. It says only that she comes to the party.  Separately, Jill will have something to say about Diane's presence in town.

In college, an excellent professor Dr. Frances Bolen spent the first 5 minutes of every class talking about anything we wanted to bring up. One day a class member asked her what Shakespearean play, "Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive." was from? So, she didn't know & it was unusual to stump her! We talked about how much it sounds like Polonius's advice to Laertes in Hamlet and then she assigned it as homework to find out which Shakespearean play it is in. The next day plenty of people were sitting with s*it-eating grins on their faces. It's by Sir Walter Scott & appears in his long poem "Lochinvar."

This paragraph from soapdirt is similar to what's in SOD.  SOD adds that the project Chance takes on (that gives him purpose) is solving all of Rey's unsolved cases.

Well, given that GH currently employs half of L.A.’s population, I can appreciate that B&B likes to play it small by comparison.

Wishful thinking, but maybe they will finally address that Kelly is really Bill's? It would be too good for Bradley to have Steffy turn to and sleep with Bill,  (again) and it being revealed Finn's not dead after all...

Will Esther actually  appear for this or they'll just talk about it?

 

I feel like the "big romantic wink" will consist of Esther imagining what it'd be like to live as the mistress of the Chancellor mansion (with Katherine's jewels and fingernails) rather than as just the maid.

LOL. It’s always funny how some of these spoilers always try to make the show sound more interesting than it is. LMAO it does not work. It’ll be interesting to see what actually happens they’ve already built Phyllis up as the “reasonable one” we’ll see if they change course or not.
 

As far as the Teriah wedding I hope it will be nice but I doubt anything serious will happen. I know they picked Friday the 13th to get married on but I can’t see mopey Noah interrupting the wedding lol.

they will probably do some dumb fantasy episode where Chole plays Esther and Ashland plays Phillip Chancellor II and either Victoria or Phyllis plays Katherine, and Esther will be having an affair with Phillip or something. LOL

Esther will fantasize about Jack and Victor fighting over her and Nick swooping in and staking his claim.

It will be one scene.

Pretty much.

The B&B spoilers sound like the storyline has actually been planned out.

I'm here for any Jill appearances on Y&R. If they have her tangle with Diane, even for one scene, all the better.
