The Abbott siblings were front and center on Y&R as the holiday season kicked off, and (from l. Eileen Davidson (Ashley), Peter Bergman (Jack), Beth Maitland (Traci) and Jason Thompson (Billy) were clearly in the Thanksgiving spirit!

Although their characters are no longer romantically linked, Rebecca Budig (Taylor) and Thorsten Kaye (Ridge) were seatmates at the Thanksgiving dinner table this year on B&B.

Paul Telfer (Xander, DAYS) was one of the many Salem-ites who participated in a Thanksgiving-themed featurette on the show’s official social media accounts, tackling quite the hypothetical question: “You can’t use a utensil to cut the turkey, what are you using?” (Telfer said he would use his “enormous mouth” and forgo tools altogether!)

Daniel Goddard’s Professor Henry Dalton may be gone on GH, but he’s certainly not forgotten as the character’s MIA status figures into storyline. He was also remembered by the show’s makeup team, who showed off their incredible skills in transforming the actor into a corpse. The caption on Instagram read, “We love a good dead body #DeadDalton @thedanielgoddard #Dalton #deathdayselfies #ghmakeup 💋”

This was quite the star-studded elevator ride at the BTG studio! We spy (clockwise from l.) Jibre Hordges (Jacob), Timon Kyle Durrett (Bill), Arielle Prepetit (Naomi), Lauren Buglioli (Vanessa), Karla Mosley (Dani), Daphnée Duplaix (Nicole), Jen Jacob (Ashley), Marquita Goings (Hayley), Ambyr Michelle (Eva) and Keith D. Robinson (Ted).

The Winters family gathered for Thanksgiving on Y&R, represented by (from l.) Sean Dominic (Nate), Bryton James (Devon), Christel Khalil (Lily), Melissa Ordway and Valarie Pettiford (Amy).

Kate Mansi (Kristina, GH) did an impromptu dance routine, replete with leaps and splits, in the studio hallways to the tune of Celine Dion’s “It’s All Coming Back To Me Now” as she wrapped filming before the show’s Thanksgiving break. “Retired dancer LAX bound,” she wrote.

The GH makeup team chronicled Kristen Vaganos’s (Molly) transformation, writing, “Quick makeup and hair change for #Molly @kvaganos 💄Challenging as it was her #makeup artist @beautebygayatri (always) makes her look fabulous #girlpower #teamwork #itsawomansworld #ghmakeup.” Vaganos replied, “Where would I be without you!”

B&B stars Tanner Nolan (Finn) and Jacqueline MacInnes (Steffy) were the subject of hilarious rapid-fire quizzes about dating trends and other hot topics, from whether marrying your brother-in-law is in or out to These dating trends are so in this year… or maybe they’re out!

Maurice Benard (Sonny) took his turn in the makeup room hot seat as the show’s talented artists got him camera-ready.

“Last day before break!” enthused Melissa Claire Egan (Chelsea) as she checked in from the Y&R studio. Acknowledging the life-size cutout of the late Jeanne Cooper, who payed Katherine Chancellor, she added, “cameo by the Queen behind me!”

Budig and Greg Rikaart (Leo, DAYS) welcomed Budig’s former All My Children castmate, Kelly Ripa (ex-Hayley), when she appeared as a guest on their podcast, SOAPY. The two women first connected when Budig was cast as Greenlee Smythe on AMC back in 1999.

Melissa Joan Hart turned her camera lens on Pierson Fode, B&B’s former Thomas, and in her Instagram caption, she wrote, “Just your reminder to watch #AMerryLittleExMas this weekend on @netflix which stars @piersonfode. Ironically he puts out a fire 🔥 in his undies in the movie but backstage he was jumping in a cold plunge in freezing 🥶 temps! Don’t miss it!” Fode responded, “

Michelle Stafford took plenty of video chronicling what was going on when the cameras weren’t rolling on the days the show filmed Danny and Christine’s wedding, and caught her on-screen son, Michael Graziadei, in a candid moment.

Eva LaRue (ex-Natalia, GH et al) and her daughter, Kaya Callahan, were joined by LaRue’s longtime publicist, Anthony Turk, as they made the rounds promoting the documentary chronicling the women’s terrifying experience with a stalker, My Nightmare Stalker: The Eva LaRue Story, which is currently streaming on Paramount+.
