After 21 years portraying Sami Brady on NBC’s “Days of our Lives,” you’d think Alison Sweeney would have forgotten some of her characters’ storyline plot points, but you’d be wrong. Appearing on the Wednesday, October 1 episode of “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” as part of its Breast Cancer Awareness Month day one episode, Sweeney took part in the segment “30 Seconds or Else,” only she didn’t exactly know what the “else” was (presumably water).

As previously reported, Wednesday, October 1 marked the first time viewers got to see three time Daytime Emmy Award winning actor Billy Miller in the contract role of Jason Morgan on ABC’s “General Hospital.” As a mystery man that viewers know to be Jason, John Doe is currently laying up in a hospital bed recovering from injuries sustained following his being run over by Ava Jerome’s (Maura West) car in an episode aired last week. When Sam (Kelly Monaco) inadvertently enters his room when her son runs away from her to be by John Doe’s side, Sam is inadvertently reunited with her husband and the father of her child, but does she realize it? Does her son, Danny?

For several weeks now “General Hospital” star Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis) has been teasing an upcoming ABC.com series that she’s hosting which will feature the likes of comedians Sarah Colonna (“Chelsea Lately”), Jimmy Pardo (“Comedy Bang! Bang!”) and Jen Kober (“American Reunion”), as well as “GH” stars Sebastian Roche (ex-Jerry Jacks), Lisa LoCicero (Olivia Falconeri), Jason Thompson (Patrick Drake) and Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones), which she describes as a show about her daytime drama series “with a big dose of funny or die or be in a coma coming to ABC.com.” Just a short time ago, Grahn revealed the new series has officially wrapped filming and will be called “General Hospital Now,” which she also notes is “SNLish mixed with Soap. Coming soon in digital near you.”

Since it was announced earlier this month that Billy Miller (ex-Billy Abbott, “The Young and the Restless”) would officially be joining the cast of ABC’s “General Hospital” in the contract role of Jason Morgan, previously portrayed by Steve Burton (Dylan McAvoy, “Y&R”) after months of rumors and speculation, the three time Daytime Emmy Award winning actor will finally show his face on the Wednesday, October 1 episode of the daytime drama series, it was revealed today by head writer Ron Carlivati and actress Michelle Stafford (Nina Clay) on Twitter.

If you’ve ever tuned into NBC’s “The Biggest Loser” and wondered what life is like for the contestants following their grueling experience, former “As The World Turns” actress Martha Byrne (ex-Lily Snyder) along with writer Daryn Strauss have come together for a new series that hopes to give you the answers you crave. In “Weight: The Series,” Byrne portrays the role of Claire Carlson, a mom who loses 100 pounds on a reality show and then has to contend with the absurd and complicated reactions of her friends and family as she attempts to balance the day to day pressures of staying thin and appearing on reality TV.

On today’s episode of CBS’ “The Young and the Restless,” the Nicholas and Sharon Bachelor/Bachelorette party is about to go down in the history books as the one which found 20 of the show’s characters all get arrested at the same exact time during the same exact event, a first for daytime television. “It’s one of the funniest shows we’ve shot in so long. Everybody is in the show. It’s a bachelor and a bachelorette party, everything goes wrong, everybody had so much fun. I mean, we had fun shooting it, the characters were having a great time at this party. It really was almost like ‘The Hangover’ [the movie] kind of,” shared Sharon Case (Sharon) in a joint interview with Joshua Morrow (Nicholas) set to air today on Hallmark Channel’s “Home & Family.”

In an exclusive interview with Australia’s TV Week Soap Extra, “The Young and the Restless'” Michael Muhney (ex-Adam Newman) has point blank denied the allegations that he groped the breasts of one of his former co-stars, which was reportedly the reason show producers opted to drop him from his contract last December. “I didn’t want to be desperately screaming: ‘I didn’t do it!’” Muhney told the publication in its newest issue as to why it took him so long to defend himself after staying silent for so long. “The rumour was untrue,” he continued.

On the Monday, September 29 season premiere episode of ABC’s “Castle,” “General Hospital” star Jon Lindstrom (Kevin Collins) will guest star as FBI Agent Connors, who helps Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic) try to solve the toughest case of her career following her much-anticipated nuptials to Richard Castle (Nathan Fillion; ex-Joey Buchanan, “One Life to Live”) that resulted in an ominous black SUV driving him off the road in the season finale before he could see his blushing bride.

With photography by Brad Everett Young, several of daytime’s hottest young stars including “General Hospital’s” Kristen Alderson (Kiki), Chad Duell (Michael), Ryan Carnes (Lucas), Marc Anthony Samuel (Felix) and Ian Buchanan (Duke), “Days of our Lives'” Brendan Coughlin (T), Allison Paige (Bev), Guy Wilson (Will), Jen Lilley (Theresa), Billy Flynn (Chad), Casey Moss (JJ) and Kevin Riggin (Rory), and “The Young and the Restless'” Camryn Grimes (Mariah), along with stars from “Baby Daddy” (Derek Theleer), “Teen Wolf” (Stephen Lunsford) and “Power Rangers,” have taken part in the Dream Loud campaign that hopes to bring music and the arts programs back into schools. “Port Charles” alum Brian Gaskill is also featured in the campaign, among countless others.

“This is our 7th and final season,” revealed actor Tim Kang, who portrays Kimball Cho on CBS’ “The Mentalist,” which has featured countless soap stars during its run on television. “Looking at the scripts now, it’s so fun and such a great season!”
