“The Bold and the Beautiful” star Scott Clifton (Liam Spencer) will be the next guest on the audio/video podcast series “Soapy Hosted by Rebecca Budig and Greg Rikaart,” releasing Tuesday, September 16, on Audacy and the CBS brand YouTube channel.
In an exclusive clip from the show’s 11th episode, Clifton can be seen discussing prologues and dialogue scenes in soap operas with hosts Rebecca Budig (“The Bold and the Beautiful,” “All My Children,” “General Hospital”) and Greg Rikaart (“The Young and the Restless,” “Days of our Lives”).

As noted by Rikaart, the scenes in question typically air online or internationally, which means fans watching daily episodes of their favorite soap in the United States don’t necessarily get to see them.
In response to Rikaart’s question of whether the actors can take more liberty with those types of scenes, both Clifton and Budig chime in, noting they don’t really have an opportunity to do so, with Budig in particular saying, “You can’t really [do that].”
Clifton echoes Budig’s response, saying, “‘The Bold and the Beautiful’ is such a great show to work on when it comes to the script writing and the dialogue because, yes, it’s like, very classic old school like campy, like, ‘I love you!’/‘No!’ – it’s that classic kind of soap dialogue which can come off campy and sort of corny, and sometimes the exposition feels like so in your face, or like the lines are made to be dramatic irony, but it’s a little like, ‘okay,’ but all those mechanisms are there for a reason and they give us so much faith to kind of massage it.”
