Courtney Grosbeck (Coco) took advantage of THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL’s month-long summer hiatus to . lm an upcoming Lifetime movie with a few other soap vets! “It’s called The Neighborhood,” says Grosbeck of the project, which also stars ONE LIFE TO LIVE’s Trevor St. John (Todd), GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Ryan Carnes (Lucas) and DAYS OF OUR LIVES’ Trevor Donovan (ex-Jeremy). In the movie, Grosbeck plays a teen whose life ends up in danger when her mother takes a liking to the handsome new bachelor on the block! “My character is an angsty teen,” she says, “but like Coco, she has a heart of gold.”…

Griffin Reaches Out To Liz! Something changed between Ava and Griffin the moment he took off his shirt so she could treat his bee sting. And on Monday, August 28, the scarred beauty finds herself having yet another steamy fantasy about her favorite doctor. When Griffin is faced with a difficult task on Thursday, August 31, Ava is ready to lend a helping hand. (Because who doesn’t think of Ava as being uber-helpful, right?) Things could get complicated when, on Thursday, September 7, Ava makes the only kind of decision she’s capable of making: a rash one! Is that why Griffin turns to Elizabeth for guidance on Friday, September 8? (Here’s hoping Franco, who’s gotten jealous over the friendship between these two in the past, doesn’t get wind of this!)…

As Eli tries to stop Lani and JJ from derailing his plan on Monday August 28, Hope and Rafe conspire with Abe. Tuesday, August 29, finds Chad and Abigail making plans to tie the knot alongside fellow about-to-be-weds Sonny and Paul. When Nicole goes to her custody hearing on Wednesday, August 30, she winds up getting a bit of alarming news. As a result, Brady decides to play dirty on her behalf on Thursday, August 31. And Friday, September 1, finds Gabi being put into a dangerous situation!…

Liam may be starting to take a more sympathetic view of Sally on THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL, but we doubt his missus, Steffy, will ever follow suit. She sees her upstart fashion rival as her worst enemy. But if she’s not careful, her spite toward the redhead could lead to her own undoing! Ironically, Sally once theorized that she and “Queen Steffy” might actually be friends if the latter would only stop passing judgment and stop seeing her as a threat. It’s a notion Steffy scof fed at, and even her portrayer, Jacqueline Mac- Innes Wood, thinks i t wo u l d b e a stretch at this stage in the game. “Sally may want to believe that, but it’s really hard for Steffy to buy, considering how…

Fashionista ▪ Whether crafting with bestie Emme Rylan (Lulu), hanging with daughter Harper or walking the red carpet, GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Kirsten Storms (Maxie) always looks amazing. Though she calls herself a “T-shir t and jeans person,” Storms clearly shares her character’s eye for fashion and appreciates Maxie’s fab style. Not only does Storms share the costume looks she likes via her Instagram page, but she owns a collection of her character’s wardrobe sketches from 2008 and 2012 — including several gown concepts for the Spinelli non-wedding. “When our former costume designer, Mary Iannelli, left, she gave me a bunch of them,” reveals Storms. “And the drawings actually look like me! That was really cool. I have some of my favorite sketches of outfits I’ve worn framed and hanging in my…

FYIFYIFYI Love At First Sight: Hurricane Hayden blew into town — claiming to be Jake Doe’s wife — on March 20, 2015. Fan Fare: Budig is still meeting GH fans. Next up, Baltimore on September 16! First Gig: The daytime diva’s . rst role was in Aerosmith’s “Livin’ On The Edge” video. Slow Clap: The actress won SKATING WITH THE STARS! After finally fighting her way to redemption, GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Hayden succumbed to her past and ran from her future. And while portrayer Rebecca Budig has mixed feelings about her exit — she doesn’t want to leave — she’s thrilled that the powers that be didn’t kill off her character! “I thought they would, so I was grateful,” she grins. “And I like how they sent Hayden off. They wrote…

There was a whole generation of fans whose addiction to seeing the life of Pine Valley’s Nina Cortlandt unfold made ALL MY CHILDREN a smash. So when Soaps In Depth recently ran into her portrayer, Taylor Miller, it did indeed feel like reuniting with an old friend. “It was one of the happiest times of my life,” she reflects. “I was so sad to hear of [AMC creator] Agnes Nixon’s recent passing. She was so innovative, and in a time when women weren’t working as much, she was creating. She was brilliant!” Life Goes On Miller has made such a different life for herself since she and Nina parted ways that it’s hard for people who know her now to even imagine her past as half of a soap supercouple.…

It’s said that babies are among the most difficult co-stars to work with, and while Edwards dotes on Gianna (Gia) and Isabella (Bella) Garcia, who play Lizzy on the show, she admits they de. nitely keep her on her toes! “They’re walking now, so they just want to explore the set,” she says. “There were times when one would be squirming in my arms, and I’d be like, ‘I don’t even know what I’m saying right now.’” On another occasion, a B&B director asked Edwards to position the baby di. erently for the camera. “I said, ‘I can try, but she doesn’t care about anything you have to say,’” she laughs. “‘She will do what she wants.’ And that’s exactly what she did!” Edwards tries to prepare for these scenes…

Bingo is a lot of fun any time you play, but Bingo Wi th The Qua r t e r - ma ine s wa s s impl y bound to be better! As anyone who attended the fan event can attest, it definitely was. Stampers poised in hand, they had a rowdy time and did their best to stay focused; h owever, between the antics of drag-queen host Roxy and the novelty of having their favorite GH actors calling the numbers, it wasn’t easy. By the end of the night, only some folks went home with prizes, but everyone sure felt like a winner, as did The Center For Learning Unlimited (the special-education school that benefitted from the night’s proceeds).…

FYIFYIFYI Mini-Me: In 1987, Nichols’ son, Aaron, played a young Patch in flashbacks. Blue Notes: Both Nichols and Steve can make toes tap with a harmonica. What He’s Binging: THE HANDMAID’S TALE, TRANSPARENT and I LOVE DICK. Way Back When: “I was a very shy kid in high school some of the time,” Nichols con. des, “but my desire for attention transformed me into the class clown quite often.” Just when DAYS OF OUR LIVES’ Steve thought he had it all together — a solid marriage, son Joey in college and a new kid in his life — a terrible lie threatened to blow it all apart. Joey’s crisis of conscience about being the one who murdered Ava — his father’s ex and his newfound brother’s mother! — got the…

Meredith Scott Lynn (Anne, DAYS) “I would like to be resting somewhere on the Galapagos Islands. I haven’t had a vacation in a couple of years of any kind, and someone told me the Galapagos Islands were the place to be. So if I could just get away… as long as I can bring some sunscreen, I’d like to be in the Galapagos.” Camila Banus (Gabi, DAYS) “Maybe Barcelona. It’s a pretty special place in my heart, and I love it there. I wish Europe was closer and easier to go to.”…

Sheila moved into the Forrester mansion after an altercation with Quinn left her “injured.” Eric recruited James to evaluate Sheila, but she just blackmailed her former shrink/husband into saying all the right things. Brooke, however, remained skeptical. Having gotten another chance from C.J. to make a go of her company, Sally planned to unveil her latest designs without Thomas’ help. Knowing his dad would sabotage her if given the chance, Liam accompanied reporter Jarrett to the debut and saved the day when an electrical fire broke out! Bill was annoyed with his son, but when Justin unearthed some interesting dirt on Spectra, he realized he had a new opportunity to get his hands on the property he coveted. Wyatt and Katie took their relationship to the next level, but he…

Satisfied that his evil scheme is ablaze, Dollar Bill basks in the success of his skyscraper-building plot on Monday, August 28. A heartbroken Sally finds herself in a hospital room on Tuesday, August 29, devastated that her dreams have gone up in flames. An outraged Liam calls his father to account for his actions on Wednesday, August 30. (Good luck with that, Liam!) And Thomas makes a surprise visit to Sally on Thursday, August 31. Might there be hope for them yet? On Friday, September 1, Liam wonders whether salvaging his relationship with his father is worth living with the guilt of keeping silent about what Bill has done.…

Your favorite stars caught in the act!…

It’s not like THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ Lily and Cane haven’t faced difficulties before. However, his recently revealed duplicity, both in sabotaging the Brash & Sassy commercial and stealing from the twins’ tuition account, has left Lily reeling! Is she ready to call it quits? More importantly, will the passionate kiss that Jordan planted on her inspire her to move on… with him? “Jordan has been a rock to Lily,” says Christel Khalil, who plays the embattled beauty. “[But] he definitely catches Lily off guard with his kiss, as she didn’t notice that his feelings for her were changing!” Of course, Jordan’s overture has given Lily something else to consider! “She enjoys the kiss but knows it’s wrong,” says Khalil. “She loves Cane. So while she enjoys it, the…

FYIFYIFYI Love Connection: The sweethearts “met in May 2014,” shares Erin. Waiting Game: “Logan bought the ring a year ago,” reveals the bride-to-be. Starter House: Erin and Luedtke bought what she calls “a little cottage” earlier this year. Wedding Vibes: Erin says her big day with Lued tke will be “classy but not snotty.” it’s been a busy summer of fan events and family fun for GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Hayley Erin (Kiki). But nothing beat getting the proposal she’s been waiting for! Luckily, she was kind enough to share her and Logan Luedtke’s love story — and a few personal pics — with Soaps In Depth readers. Erin had been expecting a proposal from her live-in beau for about a year, but he still managed to surprise her during their July…

Elizabeth and Hayden have traded a few slaps — starting with one over Nikolas, before they even knew they were sisters. “I’ve had many slaps before,” chuckles Budig, “and for the record, Becky Herbst is awesome at it. I mean, she’s been doing this for like 100 years, like me! She’s amazing.” That said, Budig insists slapping ain’t easy! “I’d rather be the receiver,” she admits. “I always feel like I look like a girl throwing a football — bad. But Becky’s a pro, so it’s all good. And we laugh when it’s over, for sure!”…

What GENERAL HOSPITAL viewer hasn’t occasionally said to him or herself, “No, no, no, why are they doing it that way? It would be so much better if only they would… ” and then spun the unfolding story the way they’d have told it? You’ve all done it, right? Well, so have we here at Soaps In Depth. And now, at last, we’re biting the bullet and revealing how we’d have twisted a few of the show’s plots. First up: Amy’s pursuit of Nathan. Check out our take on the tale, then let us know @soapsindepthabc what you think.

Family Affair With Lisa LoCicero & Dominic Zamprogna marked the first time that the real-life pals who play Olivia and Dante have hosted an event together since their very first GHFCW back in 2009. So they made sure their gathering was quite the to-do for all those who woke up bright and early on Friday to attend! With the format more conversational than straight Q&A, fans who dragged themselves out of bed were treated to a totally dreamy breakfast at Glendale’s Embassy Suites. Along with the hosts, they sipped mimosas as they gossiped and laughed about swim lessons, family adventures and life at GH… as well as hot topics like Steve Bur ton’s return (as Jason? Someone else? Who knows?), Tyler Christopher (ex- Nikolas) being hired at DAYS OF OUR…

When Nichols first stepped into his iconic role, he had no idea how much fun he was in for. “When Patch was established in 1985, there was an amazing creative team at DAYS… The atmosphere on set was electric!” Nichols recalls. “They gave me a crappy dime-store patch, a leather jacket, and I hit the ground running!” While he admits that wearing Steve’s eye cover is “irritating,” Nichols has found ways to minimize that. “I don’t walk around wearing it unless I’m actually on the set working,” he o. ers. “Otherwise, it’s up on my forehead.” He also r e p l a c e s h i s glasses during scenes with monovision contacts. “The left eye is a reading lens, and the right eye is a distance lens,”…

Q:If we could beam you, STAR TREK-style, to any place on the planet, where would you want to be? Matt Cohen (Gri­ n, GH) “This is so cheesy… but I’m here. It’s just about being at home with my wife and child, period. They don’t even have to look at me or talk to me as long as I know I’m sitting next to them. That’s the place I want to be all the time. I don’t want to spend a minute away from them. Sounds cliché, but it’s true.” Eden McCoy (Josslyn, GH) “I would either go to Bora Bora and stay in one of those huts on the water, because I’ve always wanted to do that, or I would go back to Paris. The culture, the food, the…

Lauralee Bell (Christine, Y&R) “I’m not a big flier, so [beaming me up] would be my gift right there! I was just in Croatia, so I would say either back to Croatia or maybe in a hut on a pier in Bora Bora.” Kate Linder (Esther, Y&R) “I’ve never been to Auckland, New Zealand, and I’d like to go! I’ve heard it is a great place and very di. erent. It’s a long flight, so if I could beam there — especially if I didn’t have to work the flight [as a flight attendant] — then I de. nitely want to be beamed there!” Melissa Claire Egan (Chelsea, Y&R) “I would love to go back to Africa. Kenya was the trip of a lifetime, and my husband and I had…

The In Depth Story: Rikaart was back at work just two weeks after his July 18 exit. While fans grumbled about Kevin’s departure, they were glad that the character hadn’t been killed of f and even received a happily ever after as he whisked Chloe and their daughter, Bella, off to Oregon. Prior to exiting, the actor expressed his thanks to Y&R, writing on Instagram, “In my wildest dreams, I could never have imagined what [the job] would turn into: a career-defining experience that has brought me so much happiness and fulfillment… At the moment, it’s unclear what lies ahead for Kevin and I, as we will be saying good-bye to Genoa City for a while.” Thanks to fan outcry, that good-bye was shortlived. Although it’s not clear for how…

The latest comings and goings — and how they will change your shows! The In Depth Story: The fan favorite filmed what very well could have been Julian’s exit scenes before GH’s summer hiatus. But despite his ongoing contract renegotiations, deVry always knew he and executive producer Frank Valentini would come to an agreement. “I kept my dressing room all set up, waiting for me,” he winks. “I left it there for a while, because I had that much confidence in Frank. I believed all along that we both wanted Julian back.” Now that they’ve reached an agreement, repor tedly for three more years, deVry is expected to return to the set in early October. “Originally, we talked about September, but based on my work schedule, it got pushed,” explains…

That same day, Mattie sees something that she probably wishes she could unsee! Tessa can’t help but wonder on Wednesday, August 30, whether she and Noah have a future. Hilary yet again sticks her nose where it doesn’t belong on Friday, September 1. And on Monday, September 4, Ashley finds out exactly what Graham has been up to!…

OUR TAKE Hot Topic: Can Sonny Really Get Out Of “The Business”? Like most of our readers, we find it hard to imagine GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Dimpled Don successfully extracting himself from Mob life. As he himself said of Julian’s efforts, no one gets out alive! And even if Sonny somehow succeeded… what would he do with himself? As many of you noted, this man needs control. Portrayer Maurice Benard gave us pause when he recently suggested Sonny could become Mayor Corinthos. As the city’s leader, he’d have that power… but we’re getting ahead of ourselves. Sonny’s first step is just breaking free and while we don’t have much faith in that endeavor, we’re quite impressed with how it fits into the show’s ongoing conversation. With a faction of fans continuing…

“It’s been exciting for me and so great working with Kelly in this storyline. I think our scenes have been powerful. It has felt like I was living it, not acting it. Kelly is amazing and talented, and I love getting to work with her.” — Maurice Benard (Sonny) “I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to continue to work alongside Maurice — one of the greats of my generation. I’m humbled and grateful every time I get to be in the presence of a champ. Maurice: the man, the myth, the legend, indeed.” — Kelly Monaco (Sam)…

FYIFYIFYI Born: Kansas City, MO. Family affair: Considering his family happens to be big Y&R fans, the hunk admits they’ve shared their opinion of Jordan. “Oh my gosh, there’s not enough time in the interview to tell you all their conspiracy theories and warnings!” he laughs. “I’ve heard from more family members and friends of family members saying, ‘Tell Darnell this, tell Darnell that.’ It’s brought a whole new conversation into the family!” Feeling Blessed: “I have to give a special shout-out to the whole cast and crew at Y&R,” says the newcomer. “They welcomed me with open arms into their family!” Personal Motto: “’You won’t until you do’ — keep putting action behind your vision until it’s a reality!” Just who is THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ Jordan Wilde?…

FYIFYIFYI Birthday: December 1. Hometown: Baltimore, MD. Honing Her Craft: Edwards and Anthony Turpel (R.J.) both attend sessions with former daytimer-turned-acting-coach Holly Gagnier (ex-Cassie, ONE LIFE TO LIVE). Ring Toss: Edwards admits that, since Nicole wed Zende earlier this year, it’s been a challenge for her to remember to wear her wedding ring in scenes! Pregnancy, marriage and working a top job at a thriving international company… ? THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL’s Nicole has accomplished a lot at a very early age, though her portrayer, Reign Edwards, would acknowledge that it’s a pretty far cry from her own life these days. “Yes, definitely different,” says the actress with a laugh. At 20 years old, Edwards isn’t looking to settle down or start a family of her own, but what…

“Leave your filters at the door!” seemed to be the motto of the late-night gathering thrown by GH’s Michael Easton (Finn) and Roger Howarth (Franco). The jokes flowed as freely as the wine, beer and especially the love, as the co-stars welcomed exiting castmate Rebecca Budig (ex-Hayden) as well as Melissa Archer, who was Natalie on ONE LIFE TO LIVE while the guys were on that much-missed soap as McBain and Todd, respectively.…

Reign Edwards (Nicole, B&B) “It depends. I’ve always wanted to go to Paris, but I really want to be able to speak some French before I go over there, so I can impress people!” Jacob Young (Rick, B&B) “Well, I’d want to be right at home [in Utah] with my family, and that’s the truth. If you ask me on the spot, there’s no other place on earth I’d rather be.” Pierson Fodé (Thomas, B&B) “The center of the earth, with a protective suit, because nobody has ever been there or will ever be there unless the planet explodes, and I think that would be pretty cool to experience.”…

Theo was jealous when he spotted Tripp and Claire hugging. Joey said good-bye to his loved ones. Gabi was hit hard by news that Chad had proposed to Abigail. Sonny, meanwhile, also took a huge step with Paul. Chad and Sonny realized that they were on a collision course with one another. Nicole was tempted to confide in Eric. Brady shared a secret with Victor. Even as John and Marlena realized that Hattie and Bonnie must be working together, Lucas was making love with Adrienne’s double! Sneak Preview Get ready for twice the romance and twice the drama as a double wedding is planned!…
