There are some big names heading your way this week…and some departing the scene. Get the scoop on all the latest soap comings and goings for August 12th, 2024.
Comings and Goings
The Bold and the Beautiful
Rebecca Budig joined the cast this week as the new Dr. Taylor Hayes. She debuted on Tuesday, August 6th, while stalking Brooke and Ridge and making a call to Steffy that she was coming home.
This week, B&B welcomes Y&R stars Lauralee Bell (Christine) and Michael Damian (Danny) to the scene. They’ll stop in for a visit and rumor has it, we may even see a song or two. Watch for them on August 13th & 14th.
Pam is back! Alley Mills reprises her role for a short stint. She’ll be in attendance when Christine and Danny pop by.
Days of our Lives
Allison Sweeney is coming home to Salem…but not for a while. Fans can expect to see Sami Brady back on their screen starting in 2025. From what we’ve heard, the drama is going to be epic!
Emily O’Brien has checked out as Theresa Donovan. The character is heading to Statesville and won’t be on the canvas going forward. This comes as a huge shock to viewers…and some are wondering if Theresa’s exit could mean Gwen is coming home.
Cady McClain is back for another round as Jennifer Horton. Expect her to show up on Friday in scenes with Jack (Matthew Ashford), Chad (Billy Flynn), and the mystery woman (AnnaLynne McCord) everyone is sure is Abigail.
Finley Rose Slater returns to the scene as Rachel. She’ll show up with her TV mom Stacy Haiduk (Kristen) on Thursday when they knock on Marlena’s (Deidre Hall) door early in the morning.
Friday will see another appearance of Tina Huang’s Melinda Trask. She’ll act opposite Tamara Braun’s Ava and issue a warning to steer clear of Connie (Julie Dove).
General Hospital
A casting call went out on August 6th that curiously sounded like Lulu. The recasting was confirmed by Emme Rylan who issued a statement on her Instagram stories about her disappointment with not returning. You can read her statement here.
The Young and the Restless
Beth Maitland brings Traci back to Genoa City. She’ll be accompanied by Christopher Cousin’s Alan (or is it Martin?). The two will visit the city and share special moments with the people Traci loves the most.
