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 the week of December 9th.

Comings and Goings

The Bold and the Beautiful

The jailhouse visit between Luna Nozawa (Lisa Yamada) and Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) continues on Monday, December 9, and Tuesday, December 10.

Meanwhile, Aaron D. Spears’ Justin Barber remains on hand for (but not much help to) the Forrester family on Monday, December 9.

Days of our Lives

Special guest stars Maree Cheatham (Marie Horton), Gloria Loring (Liz Chandler), and Stephen Schnetzer (Steven Olson) have all wrapped their respective runs.

Kristian Alfonso’s short-term reprisal continues on this week. On Tuesday, December 10, Hope will reunite with old friends Steve (Stephen Nichols) and Kayla (Mary Beth Evans), and brother-in-law Roman (Josh Taylor).

James Read (Clyde Weston) is back to make more mischief on Wednesday, December 11, and Thursday, December 12. Look for his Hellraising alter-ego crosses paths with daring doers JJ (Casey Moss), Gabi (Cherie Jimenez), Chad (Billy Flynn) and Cat (AnnaLynne McCord).

Susan Elena Matus makes her suds debut as Catherina Meleounis Greene on Wednesday, December 11.

Al Calderon’s Javi makes Kerry’s acquaintance on Wednesday, December 11, heralding Derek Yates’ return. He was last onscreen in July, and last featured in some pretty steamy scenes with Greg Rikaart AKA Leo Stark.

General Hospital

MIA for some time now, persnickety Tracy Quartermaine (played by the incomparable Jane Elliot) will be on hand this week to cast aspersions on the hostile that has sprung up around her person.

Michael E. Knight (but perhaps not his put-on Kentucky-Fried accent) puts in a return appearance on Monday. His Martin Grey will be in scenes opposite Genie Francis’ Laura.

Jeff Kober (Cyrus Renault) will be in scenes with one of Port Charles’ finest — Evan Hofer’s Dex Heller, to be precise — on Monday, December 9. The topic of their conversation? Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins), of course. Restraining order or no restraining order, Cyrus intends to spend the Christmas season with his niece.

Maurice Benard’s Sonny and Eva LaRue’s Natalia Ramirez have reason to cheers come Thursday, December 12.

Jessica Trainham and Mercedes Lopez-Renard made their debuts last week as Darcy and Colette, respectively. Expect to catch further glimpses of both actresses.

The Young and the Restless

It’s just not safe out there! Ray Wise (Ian Ward) and Colleen Zenk (Jordan Howard) continue their reign of terror against the good (and the so-so) citizens of Genoa City.

J. Eddie Peck (Cole Howard), Eileen Davidson (Ashley Abbott), and Tracey Bregman (Lauren Fenmore Baldwin) are poised for flying visits.

Additionally, it’s a wrap for Lauralee Bell — for now at least. Her Christine did promise to return by Christmas…with Danny (Michael Damian) in tow. It’s a promise we intend to hold her to!
