The bi-annual list of Television’s Highest Paid Stars: The Soap Opera Edition, is here! Find out who made the cut, who got richer and how being part of TV’s biggest hit doesn’t always equal big checks.

The rich will be getting even more ruthless as UMC has renewed the Victoria Rowell (ex-Drucilla Winters, “The Young and the Restless”) created “The Rich and the Ruthless” for a second season.

Tequan Richmond (TJ Ashford, “General Hospital”) has been keeping himself busy this summer filming the all-new AwesomenessTV original series, “All Night,” which finds a group of recent graduates taking part in a lock-in graduation party where they spend an entire night doing whatever it takes to make what’s left of their time in high school come true. The 10-episode half-hour comedy series was recently picked up by Hulu and is set to premiere in 2018. Richmond is set to play the role of Christian.

How did the broadcast networks perform among Total Viewers and Adults 25-54 during coverage of the first total solar eclipse in 38 years? You’d be surprised.

After a leak of her appearance in a forthcoming episode of “Days of our Lives” hit the web recently, the show has officially confirmed Victoria Konefal’s casting as Ciara Brady. She first airs in early December.

“General Hospital” will soon welcome ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith back to Port Charles. The host of “First Take” on ESPN2 will once again reprise his role as Brick, the surveillance expert working for Sonny Corinthos.

Netflix has given a green light to a second season of “Friends From College,” starring “As The World Turns” alum Annie Parisse. As was the case with the first season, the streaming service has ordered eight episodes of the half-hour comedy.

In an allegedly since deleted posting on Vimeo, actor Kyler Pettis is said to have revealed his “final scenes” as Theo Carver on NBC’s “Days of our Lives.” This might come as a shock to fans as there had been no indication that the show planned to write the character off the canvas, albeit the show does film six months ahead of air.
