THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS star Erika Girardi has again slipped into the stilettos of THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS realtor Farrah Dubose. But the blonde bombshell won’t get into another cat. ght with her RHOBH co-star, Eileen Davidson (Ashley), during her return. This time around, look for Farrah to catch the eye of Ashley’s big brother, Jack, when she airs on Monday, April 24. When Girardi appeared on Y&R last December, she told In Depth that she’d gladly reprise the role of the “strong and sassy” real estate agent. “It’s up to the powers that be,” she shared, “but obviously, if they asked for Farrah to come back, I’d be there in a heartbeat!”…

GH’s Matt Cohen (Griffin) returns to CRIMINAL MINDS: BEYOND BORDERS this week as FBI Agent Ryan Garrett, and promises, “It’s throwdown time! [My] . rst episode, they just teased my character and introduced me as Jack Garrett’s son. This one will be an amazing ride.” In “La Huesuda,” which translates to death, when the International Response Team travels to Tijuana to investigate the death of an American, Jack is stunned to . nd Ryan working undercover with the Mexican drug cartels. “It’s big. It’s dangerous. It’s fighting. It’s working with the team,” Cohen previews. “This episode and the season . nale are the two episodes you do not want to miss, I assure you!” “La Huesuda” airs on Wednesday, April 12, at 10 p.m. EST as the second hour of…

It turns out that Nicole’s new neighbor, Scooter, is the kind of guy you really don’t want to invite over for a potluck dinner. By Tuesday, April 11, she is left contemplating taking pretty serious action as a result of his interference in her life! And if you’re thinking that perhaps all these two need to do is sit down and find a way to live together — or at least in close proximity — you’d be mistaken. Because on Friday, April 14, Scooter ratchets up the pressure. With Nicole becoming increasingly desperate to keep her secret, how far will she go in order to keep Scooter quiet?…

Sally’s growing attraction to Thomas on THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL is directly at odds with her ambitions to steal Forrester designs in order to salvage her business. Will the choice between love or money leave this redhead facing a personal catch-22? The aspiring businesswoman has traded both flirtations and kisses with Thomas, but the real prize, in her estimation, is making a name for herself — not just landing the world’s most eligible bachelor. “ She has dreams of her own,” explains Sally’s portrayer, Courtney Hope. “She’s a great designer — at least in her own mi n d — a n d that’s her priority. She’s fighting to revive the Spectra name and make her company a success.” In other words, though her affection for Thomas is genuine,…

We were excited to dish about GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Finn and Hayden with portrayers Michael Easton and Rebecca Budig, but we had no idea what we were getting ourselves — and you! — into. This entertaining romp certainly won’t go down as Soaps In Depth’s most informative interview ever, but we’re not complaining. It was hilarious. One caveat before you dig in: Don’t believe everything these two say! — Deanna Barnert Soaps In Depth: Hey, you’re already laughing! What are you laughing about? Michael Easton: Well, when I heard Rebecca was doing this, I realized it would just be one side of the story. So I thought I’d jump in to set the record straight. Rebecca Budig: No, I heard he was doing it, so I figured I had to jump…

hat’s the secret sauce that’s made THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL a television success for the last 30 years? We can tell you two ingredients, at least: John McCook (Eric) and Katherine Kelly Lang (Brooke), the two cast members who have been an integral part of the show since day one. Neither imagined at the time, of course, that they’d be with the soap for three decades and counting. “I expected it would probably be five years, if I was lucky,” explains Mc- Cook, “because that’s how long CAPITOL [the show B&B replaced on CBS] had made it.” Lang, in fact, was originally quite reluctant to sign her first multi-year contract with B&B, so when she reflects on her recent milestone, she can only shake her head in disbelief. “It’s…

Having just spent his first night at home with his wife and new baby, GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Jason was in a good mood when he showed up at Elizabeth’s door — then he saw Franco. During the heated discussion about Jake’s mental health that ensued, Jason seemed ready to blow his top, but portrayer Billy Miller refused to let him do so. Without ever raising his voice or throwing a punch, the Daytime Emmy winner ably revealed his character’s seething disgust, distrust and frustration to win this week’s Gold Star. A Moment Of Happiness Before his extended family drama reared its head, Jason was given some time to just enjoy fatherhood with Sam — and that bears mention because it was a blast to see Miller work that smile and some…

Freddie Smith (Sonny, DAYS) “THE THREE STOOGES would be great: I’d do it with Christopher Sean (Paul) and Bryan R. Datillo (Lucas).” Christopher Sean (Paul, DAYS) “I’d do I LOVE LUCY with Freddie Smith (Sonny). I’ll be Lucy and he can be Ricky Ricardo because he’s the Kiriakis, so he’s always in charge.” Meredith Scott Lynn (Anne, DAYS) “Maybe Deidre Hall (Marlena) and I would do THE ODD COUPLE. But there would be some twist, like she would be some stuffy conservative WASP and I’m a sloppy New York Jew.”…

Victoria warned Victor that hiring Scott to write his autobiography could expose the Newmans’ dirty secrets. Cane fretted over his one-night stand with Juliet, especially when Victoria hired the beauty at Brash & Sassy! Phyllis blasted Ashley for sending Ravi mixed signals. Billy pressed Victoria about the kiss they’d shared, but tensions rose between them when they shared an elevator with Phyllis! Sneak Preview When Lauren decides to play matchmaker for a friend, will she prove successful?…

Everything’s Zen Lead Actress nominee Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis) was meditating on the beach when she heard the news. “I’d completely forgotten,” she admits. “Then, to add to the sweetness of the moment, whales started jumping! I sat there for three hours and counted over 20 whales. It [was] a glorious day.” The calm environment was a stark contrast to the scenes Grahn submitted, which focused on her character’s drinking. “It’s been so delicious,” she smiles. “I haven’t had material [like that to submit] in 10 or 12 years.” The Amazing Race Who do GH’s nominees consider to be their biggest competition? “They all are,” diplomatically states Lead Actress contender Laura Wright (Carly). “We’re all winners… until that night.” Grahn concurs. “Once you get to a certain point, everybody is…

When Obrecht reached out to Faison for Anna, the villain delivered some good dish on Valentin. With Anna still mired in Cassadine drama, might the ladies — or Valentin! — lure Faison out of hiding? “I would love to see him,” shares Kathleen Gati (Obrecht) of the character played by Anders Hove. “Anything is possible on the show. The actor is at The National Theatre in Copenhagen. He’s brilliant, and it’s always awesome to work with him, but he’s a busy actor. So I don’t know if it’s going to be feasible.” Even if Hove’s not available, Kelly Thiebaud is happy to let Britt do her father’s dirty work. The actress recently told In Depth that she’s open to returning to GH on a recurring basis, and, after the onthe-…

Sonny Vs. Jax! Sonny has been dealing with a lot over the past few months, and things aren’t going to be made much better by what happens on Monday, April 10. (For more on the twist that rocks his world, turn to the In Depth Cover Story, page 24.) Something tells us Carly’s husband might be right to fear the worst on Tuesday, April 10! He winds up feeling a whole range of emotions on Friday, April 14, but ultimately drowns in his anger. This leads him to confront longtime rival Jax on Monday, April 17, which is one face-off you couldn’t pay us to miss! Meanwhile, Carly is more determined than ever to punish Nelle on Wednesday, April 19, even as the younger woman vows to take the high…

THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ Cane didn’t just get drunk with Juliet in Tokyo, he also got busy with her! Now he’s “kind of devastated!” understates Daniel Goddard, who plays the guilt-ridden hunk. “What Cane has been through in his life is why he’s so protective of his relationship with Lily. He can’t believe he’s regressed back to the habits he had when he was younger.” Cane may have been outof- his-mind drunk when he bedded Juliet, but Goddard says that his alter ego fears Lily isn’t going to give him a pass. In fact, she might not even believe that’s what motivated him to stray! “What would happen if Lily feels [Cane cheated] because he was upset with Lily’s modeling and his [disappointment in not] getting Brash & Sassy?…

Hot Topic: The Men In Elizabeth’s Life Butt Heads! The pairing of GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Elizabeth and Franco was controversial from the start, so we’re not surprised fans remain divided over this love story. But headwriters Jean Passanante and Shelly Altman took their time crafting a tale that forced Liz and Franco to work for their love… and gave us time to adjust to the idea. Not only did Liz have to overcome her fears and misgivings about the reformed psycho, but thanks to Tom Baker, Franco gained new perspective on his own horrific past actions against Jason and Sam. Which is why the current story which puts Jake’s parents and their significant others on the same side as they attempt to figure out what happened to him on Cassadine Island…

THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ Camryn Grimes has quite literally grown up before our eyes. Two decades ago, the then-7-year-old debuted as Cassie, the daughter Sharon had given up for adoption, winning our hearts with her gap-toothed smile. In fact, we shed copious tears when the teen died… only to be shocked and delighted when Grimes returned to the sudser as Cassie’s twin, Mariah. “My life would not be where it is right now without Y&R,” the Emmy winner admits quietly. “It got me started in the career that I wanted to be in. Even leaving was a life-changing experience. And coming back was the cherry on top of it all. It’s hard not to get emotional. I’m only 27 years old, and this show really has been my whole…

Rena Sofer (Quinn) “There are so many shows you hear about where the matriarch or patriarch are a little bristly or you’ve got to walk on eggshells around them, but these are two people you don’t have to worry about as far as that is concerned. John and Kelly are grace personi. ed.” Jacob Young (Rick) “Words could never really describe the feeling I have in my heart for these two people. They’ve just been a guiding light in my life. They’re wonderful human beings, and it’s one of the reasons the show has survived for 30 years — we have great leaders that show everybody else the way. I’ve learned from the best, and I’m thankful every day for them.” Thorsten Kaye (Ridge) “Right after I signed on to…

The In Depth Story: “ I thought, ‘Eh, I’ve heard that before,’” Cain confesses. But when Cain eventually discovered how the story was to play out, it was something he very much wanted in on. “My whole motive was, ‘How can I serve the show?’” he says. “I wanted to honor Darlene [Conley, Sally], the Spectra gang and the fans, because I’ve always been a stickler for continuity.” He’s also grateful that headwriter and executive producer Bradley Bell chose not to recruit someone new for his part. “He hadn’t seen me in several years, so I could have shown up, and [he could have thought], ‘Oh, wow, we have to recast,’” Cain says with a laugh. Now that he’s made several appearances (with more this week), Cain would love to…

The In Depth Story: Jax returned to Port Charles last week, and Soaps In Depth hears that his visit has been a total blast for all of the actors involved in the story. “Oh my God, it’s so incredible,” raves Laura Wright (Carly). “I adore Ingo. He’s so much fun. And he doesn’t come in for a calm, little visit — he really killed it this time! Ingo said he just had so much fun with the material, because Jax wasn’t just a vehicle. He had great stuff to play.” Unfortunately, even though Rademacher has moved back to California after living in Hawaii for the last few years, Carly’s ex is not back in town for good. “He’s only here for a coupla weeks,” reveals Wright, “but it’s amazing what…

Kristina’s love life went from sizzling to fizzling when her triangle with Ashley Jones’ Parker and John DeLuca’s Aaron blew up last year. The confused young woman finally chose Parker, only to have the professor go back to her wife. “For her first experience, it made sense for [Kristina] to be drawn to someone older,” executive producer Frank Valentini tweeted. “But in the future, it’ll be some- one her own age.” However, that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for Parker in Kristina’s life as a friend, and Jones is game for a return — though she admits playing a romance with a younger woman wasn’t easy. “That was a very fine line to walk,” she tells In Depth. “You don’t want to come across like a predator, especially since Parker…

Thomas is blindsided and heartbroken when, on Monday, April 10, Sally abruptly breaks things off with him. On Tuesday, April 11, Bill instructs his reporter to write a scathing review of Spectra’s upcoming fashion show… or else! Having implicit faith in Coco, R.J. tells her on Wednesday, April 12, that he will always have her back. Banking on Spectra’s imminent failure, Bill makes C.J. an offer on his family’s building on Thursday, April 13. On Friday, April 14, the Spectra gang preps for its make-or-break fashion show, feeling completely confident in their designs.…

Role Reversal When GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Lulu asked Dillon how she’d become the bad guy where the custody case was concerned, we couldn’t help feeling that she was speaking not only to but for many viewers. It’s a problem we’ve had with this tale for a while now. Lulu may not actually be the bad guy, but she also hasn’t been the good guy, the smart guy or the sane guy. If anything, she’s been the annoying guy we haven’t been able to get behind even though her competition is a creepy killer! As Dillon begged Lulu to see how her actions were working against her, we prayed she’d hear him and stop being so destructively impulsive — so that we could finally get into this Spencer/Cassadine feud! Patience may not…

The Great Escape When GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Robert Palmer Watkins (Dillon) travels the country to meet fans, it’s always a bit of a reality check. “Here in L.A., the people I hang out with are all trying to make it as actors and ar tists,” he explains. “They’re focused on the hustle and bustle — so they’re not necessarily watching my show every day! So sometimes, I forget people watch GH all the time. Going to these events, it’s cool to see how much the show affects them.” While he appreciates the love that fans have for Kiki and Dillon, he’s especially moved when he sees how the show’s more dramatic tales can touch viewers. “A woman came up to me recently to say that the story with Morgan, Dillon and…

General Hospital In Depth asked... Should Carly forgive Nelle and forge a true sisterly bond with her? The Nelle haters were out in force, but cooler heads pointed out that if anyone should understand forgiveness, it is Carly! Reader Reaction: 51% OF COURSE! 49% NEVER! This issue’s question..

After Michael E. Knight played ALL MY CHILDREN’s beloved Tad “The Cad” Martin from 1983-2011, it was safe to say that he loved daytime TV. That’s why the invitation to create the role of quirky Dr. Simon Neville on THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS in 2015 was too good for him to pass up. “It was kind of fun to be a new toy again — I’d done Tad for so long,” he reflects. “And when they asked, ‘Can you do eccentric?’ I said, ‘I wake up eccentric! I have to tone it down in real life.’” The Doctor Was “In” What was supposed to be a brief gig for Knight turned into something more substantial when the opportunity to work with fellow daytime icon Eileen Davidson (Ashley) arose. “I…

The stars and experts share their tips “Vanessa Hudgens dresses really cute. She’s such a hippie; I love it! And Kendall Jenner. She can wear anything and look like a million bucks. I appreciate their style. But I just end up buying lots of pieces I like and for me, the fun part is to wear all my clothes in di? erent and new ways. I try to not just wear the same things over and over again. It’s hard sometimes. But that’s the exciting part. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t work so great. But I will be late before I leave the house in something I feel isn’t attractive. So, I have to get up very early!” — GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Hayley Erin (Kiki) Erin looks to Jenner and…

Q: If you could cast yourself and a costar in a remake of a classic TV series/movie, who would join you, and in what? Michelle Stafford (Nina, GH) “I would do Matt Cohen (Grifin) and I as Bonnie And Clyde.” Risa Dorken (Amy, GH) “I’d do Little Shop Of Horrors with Matt Cohen (Griffin) as Seymour. I love working with Matt. He’s very supportive of everyone and creates a positive work environment, but he’s also super geeky and then also very attractive. You can’t believe a person could be that good looking, kind and smart, all together.” Matt Cohen (Griffin, GH) “MARRIED WITH CHILDREN. I’d most definitely be Al Bundy. I would love for Peggy to be my wife [Mandy Musgrave], only because she would up my game so much… but…

THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL Having witnessed her fiancé kissing Quinn, Brooke called off their engagement. An oblivious Eric confronted Ridge and Brooke to find out if another woman was behind their rift. Katie advised Brooke to tell Eric everything. Hoping to buy Katie’s silence, Quinn offered her a job at For rester. Ridge begged for Brooke’s forgiveness, and R.J. was disappointed that his parents hadn’t gotten hitched. The Spectra gang’s spying paid off when R.J. showed Coco the latest confidential Forrester designs. The upstarts went to work making knockoffs, despite Sally’s reluctance. Later, Darlita got an eyeful while watching footage from Coco’s hidden camera! sneak Preview A newly-bloomed romance may already find itself facing a major test!…
