Before "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," Lisa Rinna was best known for her portrayal as Billie Reed on NBC's "Days of our Lives." Nearly five years since she last appeared on the soap, the actress is heading back to Salem for another go. Will it be Billie vs. Hope (Kristian Alfonso) 4.0, or will something else capture the character's attention?
Lisa Rinna ("The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," "Days of our Lives") is about to get a taste of the Hecks when she guests on the third episode of ABC's "The Middle," which is entering its ninth and final season on ABC.
Robert Scott Wilson ("Days of our Lives," "All My Children") has signed on to play a millionaire bachelor in "The Girl Who Cried Wolf."
If you're a fan of "Grey's Anatomy," "Once Upon a Time," "Castle," "Modern Family," "The Middle," "The Goldbergs" or "Black-ish" you're in luck: ABC has extended the episode orders for each of the 7 series beyond the typical 22 episodes. Unfortunately, if you got yourself entwined in "Manhattan Love Story" you're in for a big disappointment: ABC has canceled the series after just three airings.

From Friday, March 14 through Monday, March 17, former "General Hospital" star Ronnie Marmo (ex- Ronnie Dimestico) will be MC'ing a weekend of comedy on Princess Cruises Lines' SAPPHIRE as it heads down to Mexico.

ABC formally announced its new lineup of shows on Tuesday at an upfront presentation held at New York City’s Avery Fisher Hall, and Paul Lee, the ABC Entertainment Group president, called series like the network’s new Steven Spielberg-produced drama, “Lucky 7,” soaps! And he revealed much more about the new shows in a special press conference in which Soap Opera Network took part.
ABC has consistently brought soap-worthy programming to primetime (“Desperate Housewives” and “Revenge,” to name but two), and the schedule for this fall is no different: Intermixing with popular mainstay shows like “The Middle,” “Modern Family,” and “Grey’s Anatomy,” come thirteen brand new shows, a few of which may spur “General Hospital” and other daytime soaps to come to mind!
