CBS Spoilers: How The Young and the Restless, The Bold and the Beautiful, Beyond the Gates will Celebrate the Holidays
Starting Monday, December 22, CBS rings in the holiday season with special holiday-themed and classic episodes of viewers’ favorite daytime dramas, The Young and the Restless, The Bold and the Beautiful, and Beyond the Gates.
BEYOND THE GATES
BTG celebrates the holidays with a special holiday episode on Wednesday, December 24th, 2025, featuring an original song written by series star Clifton Davis.
In addition, Dani (Karla Mosley) and Andre (Sean Freeman) celebrate their first Christmas together — and Vernon (Clifton Davis) and Sharon’s (Bonita Brisker) secret is exposed in front of all of the Duprees.
Ted (Keith D. Robinson) has three surprise visitors for the holiday. Meanwhile, Eva (Ambyr Michelle) and Izaiah (David Lami Friebe) hit a major milestone in their budding relationship.
On Tuesday, December 30th, 2025, a serenade to ring in 2026 is performed by special guest star singer Kenny Lattimore. Colleagues Ted (Keith D. Robinson) and Shanice (Ernestine Johnson) are pulled into each other’s romantic orbit, much to the chagrin of Leslie (Trisha Mann-Grant). And the entire Dupree family starts the new year by reeling from a health crisis.
THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS
Y&R will celebrate the holidays on Wednesday, December 24th, as Victor (Eric Braeden) and Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) are reminded of the true meaning of Christmas. Meanwhile, Jack (Peter Bergman) and Diane (Susan Walters) get into the holiday spirit with a romantic evening at home.
On Thursday, December 25th, Y&R will replay a classic episode from 2010 as Victor is visited by ghosts of Christmas past. On Thursday, January 1st, 2026, a classic episode from 1998 will re-air, when Katherine Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper) hosts a lavish affair at Chancellor Mansion that is interrupted by her arch nemesis, Jill Abbott (Jess Walton).
THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL
B&B keeps the holiday magic alive starting on Wednesday, December 24th, 2025, when despite having to come to terms with his retirement, Eric (John McCook) and Donna (Jennifer Gareis) manage to pull off a festive surprise. Before joining the family, Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) gives Brooke (Katherine Kelly Lang) a special gift.
Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) share a sweet moment under the mistletoe before Steffy (Jacqueline McInnes Wood), Finn (Tanner Novlan), Kelly (Sophia Paras) and Hayes (Bryan David Garlick) arrive to celebrate with the family.
In classic Forrester tradition, the group closes out the holiday by gathering around the piano and singing a Christmas carol.
On Thursday, December 25th, B&B will play the encore Christmas episode from 2024 where challenges forced the Forresters and Logans to celebrate separately. And on Thursday, January 1, 2026, The Bold and the Beautiful brings us back to Italy, re-airing a fashion-filled episode from July 2025.
