As previously reported, American soaps “The Bold and the Beautiful” and “The Young and the Restless” will be returning to Monte-Carlo for the 61st Edition of the Monte-Carlo Television Festival, taking place June 17-21, 2022. Although it was already known that Melissa Ordway and Jason Thompson would be on hand representing “Y&R” for a meetup session, only recently has it been revealed who will represent “B&B.”

Look for actors Thorsten Kaye, Krista Allen, Jacqueline MacInnes Wood and Tanner Novlan as they celebrate the iconic show’s 35th anniversary with a special and exclusive screening followed by a Q&A session moderated by journalist Rebecca Leffler and a signing session. The events will take place on Sunday, June 19 from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m. at the Salle Camille Blanc, Grimaldi Forum. The special standalone episode being screened is the 35th-anniversary episode in which a sleeping Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) is visited in her dreams by all of her past loves, taking stock of her life. Featured in the episode are Jack Wagner, who played Nick Marone from 2003 to 2012; Winsor Harmon, who played Thorne Forrester from 1996 to 2016; John McCook (Eric Forrester); Don Diamont (Bill Spencer); and the aforementioned Thorsten Kaye (Ridge Forrester).

Prior to the special screening, on Saturday, June 18 from 5:00 p.m. – 5:50 p.m. at the Salle Genevoix, Grimaldi Forum, “B&B” executive producer and head writer Bradley Bell, supervising producer Casey Kasprzyk and director Cynthia J. Popp will share exclusive insight into the secrets to the success and longevity of their hit show that has been a cornerstone of daytime programming at CBS since 1987. They’ll also share how there is a renewed energy for the soap genre in an ever-changing environment which enables them to stay current and keep their fan base engaged as shown by the show’s continued ratings success which includes millions of viewers around the world.

Other panels taking place during the festival include Scripted Format Distribution: Creating an International Hit; International Co-Productions: HOw to Avoid the Pitfalls and Build a Potent Project?; (R)evolution of Consumer Usages: New Strategies and New Players on the TV Series Market; Breakwater by Snap Originals: Case Study of a New Format Driving Deeper Engagement with Gen Z; and Conscious Content: The Shift Towards Sustainable Production.

    • I tried following the news in Los Angeles at https://laist.com (independent public radio and news) They had up-to-the minute accurate info during the wildfires in January. There's no video, no impact to my mind as to what's happening. Trying other outlets, to get the truth, but it's hard.  
    • That's a bit murky since that happened during a writers' strike. Assuming Kristen Marie had a 2-year contract she left about when her contract would have expired and Sharlene and Josie showed up right before that. Lemay was officially credited as HW from September 1988 but it seems very probable that his anticipated tenure influenced events that happened during the strike which started in April. 
    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
