RON CARLIVATI ON BO & HOPE'S RETURN
Peter Reckell (Bo) and Kristian Alfonso (Hope) will reprise their signature
roles this week. Here, Head Writer Ron Carlivati shares how it all happened
and previews what’s ahead for this beloved duo.Soap Opera Digest: When you
finished BEYOND SALEM: CHAPTER 2, did you always have in mind that this
story would continue?Ron Carlivati: Yes, which I hope was pretty obvious to
everyone that by ending with Bo no longer in heaven, but alive and in a
cryogenic tube, that we were at least hoping to pick it up, if not planning
to pick it up. I knew it was a gamble to end on a cliffhanger because we
had no guarantee that BEYOND SALEM would get picked up for another season.
We hoped maybe that might help if there was an outcry of people wanting to
see what was gonna happen next, but we knew it was a great ending and we
went with it, kind of crossing our fingers that we would be able to pick up
that story.Digest: Now in the interim, DAYS moved to Peacock. Did that
change any of your plans?Carlivati: We were toying around with the idea of
the next chapter of Bo and Hope, and when we started telling the story with
the three women with the orchid and that they might actually die, we said,
“Well, where is this story going to go? They’re going to get this disease
that Roman got, and we know the orchid can cure them.” And we kicked around
ideas and I started to think about how we could tie what was happening with
these women into Bo and Hope’s story. One thought was that we don’t know
what happened to them, we think they’re dead and then we pick them up in
these cryogenic tubes and that’s BEYOND SALEM: CHAPTER 3. We were pitching
this to Peacock and they hadn’t yet made a decision about it. By the time
we found out that they were going to move the show to Peacock, we thought,
“Well, what about just continuing the story on the mothership?” So we took
what we were thinking might be BEYOND SALEM: CHAPTER 3 and just reworked it
to be on the regular show. So the reason Marlena and Kayla and Kate were
sort of in limbo for a few weeks in heaven/purgatory is because we were
stalling because we did not have an answer about whether we were doing
BEYOND SALEM. I, personally, loved the little interim arc in heaven. I
thought that was super-fun. But it was kind of a pit stop on the way to
them being in this mysterious lab, in these cryogenic tubes.Digest: Okay,
so you decided to tell the story on the mothership. What happened
next?Carlivati: So they pulled the trigger on that and said yes, and the
next step in this was to come up with the story. I pitched it to Kristian
[Alfonso, Hope] and Peter [Reckell, Bo] separately and heard their thoughts
about everything. Obviously, we had to get Megan Hathaway in place. We knew
we would want Ben and Ciara for it, and we knew we would want Steve
Burton’s character, Harris Michaels, in it, so there was a lot that went
into it.*Digest:* What can you tease about where the story is going?
Carlivati: The audience knows they saw Bo open his eyes in the tube at the
end of BEYOND SALEM, and now, several months have gone by. When we first
showed the women, we panned to this empty tube in the back of the room, to
remind the audience that Bo was in that, and he’s not in that anymore, so
where is he? We pick up Hope where we left her off. She had gone through
this whole experience with Harris Michaels, finding out that he was in
league with Megan Hathaway, and we ended her on BEYOND SALEM, like, “I have
to bring Megan Hathaway to justice. I have to find her and make her pay.”
So Hope is on this quest to find Megan and it involves her having to deal
with Harris again because he may have a clue that she needs. She’s loath to
get involved with him again because they had this cat-and-mouse
relationship for all that time — and he tried to kill her. We know that Bo
is floating around out there somewhere in Megan’s clutches, but we have no
idea the condition that he has awakened in. The last we saw Bo, he was
dying of a brain tumor and now he’s alive, but where is he and what
condition is he in? So the whole idea is that Hope is on a collision course
with Bo and she’s unaware of it, but the audience knows.Digest: What does
it mean to you to be writing this couple as part of the
mothership?Carlivati: It’s a big thrill. Obviously, I got to write them
once, where they only really interacted briefly in heaven, which was my
favorite episode of the five of BEYOND SALEM: CHAPTER 2, where they
actually come face-to-face and get to share memories and get to dance. But
they only met on some sort of an astral plane, if you will, and now they’re
in the real world. I’m excited, also, because I know the audience is going
to be excited to see the story play out. I know where it’s going and what a
fun ride it is, so I’m really looking forward to it.Digest: How would you
sum up what’s ahead?Carlivati: This is old-school DAYS OF OUR LIVES, and
it’s something that the audience has waited a very, very long time to see.
You won’t want to miss it.

Ben and Ciara Return to DAYS OF OUR LIVES!
Some familiar faces will be popping back into Salem very soon and we’re not
just talking about Bo and Hope! Everyone knows that Kristian Alfonso and
Peter Reckell are returning but now it turns out that they won’t be alone!
Ciara and Ben are returning to *DAYS OF OUR LIVES*
<https://www.soapsindepth.com/posts/category/nbc/days-of-our-lives> as well!
Reckell’s first air date back is scheduled for Thursday, March 16, and
Alfonso’s is Friday, March 17. But along with those two, *Soap Opera Digest*
<https://www.soapoperadigest.com/> is reporting that *Victoria Konefal*
<https://www.soapsindepth.com/posts/tag/victoria-konefal> and *Robert Scott
Wilson* <https://www.soapsindepth.com/posts/tag/robert-scott-wilson> will
be reprising their roles of Ciara and Ben as part of Bo and Hope’s big
return storyline.
Unfortunately, no details are available as to when, exactly, the young
couple will first appear again, or how long they will be sticking around.
Though it’s likely to only be for a short visit as part of this tale as
Konefal is pursuing other roles and Wilson is currently playing *Alex
Kiriakis*
<https://www.soapsindepth.com/posts/days-of-our-lives/alexander-kiriakis-robert-scott-wilson>
on *DAYS* <https://www.nbc.com/days-of-our-lives>!
Konefal and Wilson brought Ciara and Ben back to the screen during the
second season of BEYOND SALEM and are now bringing their characters back to
the “mothership,” as it were. And a couple more actors who appeared in the
DAYS spinoff are going to be joining them as part of this big, new
storyline.
Christopher Sean will appear as *Paul Narita*
<https://www.soapsindepth.com/posts/nbc/days-of-our-lives-paul-narita-christopher-sean-165677>
in
the Thursday, March 16, episode when John goes to visit his son in San
Francisco, and Colton Little will be back as Andrew Donovan in the same
episode when he appears in scenes with Steve.

*DOOL *weekly spoilers <https://soapdirt.com/category/days-of-our-lives/> point
to Brady Black’s (Eric Martsolf) visit with his jailbird baby mama, Kristen
DiMera (Stacy Haiduk). Brady loathes Kristen. She involved herself in
life-or-death blackmail that eventually led to Brady Black’s stepmom’s
“death.”
Not only that, Kristen DiMera forced Brady’s break up with
<https://soapdirt.com/days-of-our-lives-spoilers-dimera-kristen-desperately-lashes-out-as-life-falls-apart/>
Chloe
Lane (Nadia Bjorlin). Plus, Kristen DiMera plays up Chloe as the bad guy to
their daughter Rachel (Finley Rose Slater). Brady Black has a beef to pick
with his lying scheming ex-girlfriend Kristen.
*Days of our Lives *recaps show Rachel blasting her dad. She blames him for
her mother, Kristen’s absence. Brady Black feels sad for his daughter. And
he knows Kristen misses her.
Does Brady bring the little girl <https://www.youtube.com/@dayspeacock> to
see Kristen DiMera at the state prison on *DOOL.* He faces kidnapping
charges for trying to undo the brainwashing procedure that Kristen ordered
for her brother.
Brady Black may plead with
<https://soapdirt.com/days-of-our-lives-spoilers-eric-brady-black-compare-love-notes/>
Kristen
to admit to her wrongdoing and help him stay out of jail. So Brady could
use their child as leverage on his visit with Kristen DiMera.
*Days of our Lives *2-week spoilers spill Nicole Walker (Arianne Zucker) offers
to aid
<https://soapdirt.com/days-of-our-lives-weekly-spoilers-can-eric-forgive-nicole/>
Gabi
Hernandez (Camila Banus) and Stefan DiMera (Brandon Barash). The lovers
want to be together. But first, have to bring down Li Shin (Remington
Hoffman).
He’s still married to Gabi but with stipulations. The sly businessman
traded his shares of DiMera Enterprises stock for six months of marriage.
And, of course, Li has rules for his wife. Gabi must live under the same
roof.
Plus, she is forbidden to see the man she has always loved. *DOOL *video
shows Stefan meeting and making out with Gabi. She spills her tale of
marital woe and financial gain. He wants her to play along for the power
those shares provide.
*DOOL *spoilers indicate Nicole reaches out to
<https://soapdirt.com/days-of-our-lives-spoilers-stefan-dimera-shocks-gabi-hernandez/>
Gabi
and Stefan. But do they accept her offer? After all, Stefan is at war with
his brother EJ (Dan Feuerriegel), Nicole’s current boyfriend and ex-husband.
He may think it’s one of Elvis Junior’s tricks to get the upper hand.
However, maybe Nicole works on her own. So, she may feel bad for the former
lover’s situation.
After all, Gabi thought Stefan was dead for years
<https://soapdirt.com/days-of-our-lives-spoilers-brain-addled-stefan-dimera-at-risk-big-brother-flips-script/>
before
Dr. Rolf resurrected him with his twin’s heart. Then, he was brainwashed to
hate Gabi and love Chloe. Perhaps, Nicole helps the exes sneak around so
they can be together.
But they still have to keep up the ruse of Gabi’s faithfulness to her
obsessed husband. And *Days of our Lives *fans think Li could crack up if
he catches his wife kissing Stefan again. Look for Nicole’s offer soon.
*DOOL *2-week spoilers report Abe Carver (James Reynolds) and Paulina Price
(Jackee Harry) could find a reason to celebrate. The couple has been
through a lot. And now Paulina faces a nasty wrongful death lawsuit.
Her assets and her daughter Chanel Dupree’s (Raven Bowens) have been
frozen. But, on *Days of our Lives,* Paulina hires legal eagle Belle Black
(Martha Madison). She puts Belle on task right away to regain what she’s
lost.
Stick it to the plaintiff and hot-to-trot lawyer
<https://soapdirt.com/days-of-our-lives-2-week-spoilers-belle-black-sloan-peterson-alliance/>
Sloan
Peterson (Jessica Serfaty). She solely blames Chanel for her mother’s
accidental death. And sticks it to Paulina for her role in protecting her
daughter.
Maybe Belle gets Sloan to drop the suit. Or, at the very least, it gets
Paulina and Chanel access to their funds once again. On the other hand,
maybe the celebration has something to do with Abe Carver.
He may be coming up on a milestone. Or perhaps he receives some good news.
They could celebrate that Bo Brady (Peter Reckell) is still alive. *Days of
our Lives* brings tremendous stories to fans over the next couple of weeks.
See how these stories may connect to the long-awaited return of Bo and Hope
Williams Brady (Kristian Alfonso). Watch for the super couple, fighting
exes Brady and Kristen and star-crossed love
