Could Steffy's Break Spell Breakup? Will B&B Mess With Finn While His Wife Is Away?
Paging Dr. Hottie
Let's not pretend Finn (Tanner Novlan) isn't a catch. He's gorgeous, emotionally intelligent, and has that dreamy doctor energy that makes women weak in the knees. And now? He's vulnerable. That's prime real estate for daytime drama. With Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) gone, you just know someone's going to try their luck.

Finn Vs. Temptation
Could Hope (Annika Noelle) make another move? She may be engaged to Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor), but we all know her love life is a flipbook of impulsive decisions. Her perceived chemistry with Finn weened off months upon months ago…or did it? A casual conversation, a comforting moment, and boom – we've got a love triangle nobody asked for but everyone would secretly love.
Then there's Ivy (Ashleigh Brewer) newly single and absolutely glowing. She's already reestablished herself in town and doesn't seem to mind stirring a little trouble. A flirt here, a smile there, and suddenly she's sliding into Finn's orbit. And don't even get us started on how good they'd look together. Sparks, anyone?

And what if the woman who shakes things up isn't someone obvious, but someone who crosses over from his home life to his work life? Dr. Bridget Forrester (Ashley Jones) has brains, beauty, and a badge that says Doctor. She and Finn could bond over patients, late-night charts, and maybe even something a little steamier. Is that a heartbeat spike or just undeniable tension?
Will Finn Stay Faithful?
B&B thrives on forbidden connections, emotional cheating, and shocking twists. With Steffy gone, her marriage might be in more danger than she realizes. Whether it's a slow-burning flirtation or a full-blown betrayal, Finn's loyalty is about to be tested like never before. If there's one thing we know about the soaps, it's that no man is left to his own devices for very long without some sort of trouble brewing – and no woman plays fair when love and lust are on the line.

Can A Struggling HGTV Renovate Its Content?
HGTV has been struggling. Recently, the network has canceled Christina on the Coast, The Flipping El Moussas, Battle on the Beach, Farmhouse Fixer, Married To Real Estate, Bargain Block and Izzy Does It. In an exclusive for Deadline, one source said, 'Home reno shows are expensive because all of the materials are jacked up and on delay, the price of wood and marble and everything else is going up, so these shows don't make as much sense anymore.' HGTV ranked 13th on the list of most watched networks in 2024. However, its viewership dropped 18%. Its total audience fell from 1.5 million in 2017 to 773,000 in 2024. This drop isn't the only issue at the network. As housing and building costs rise in America, home renovation shows have become more expensive to produce. While not looking at TV renovations, the University of Alabama found that in 2024 'the median spend on home renovations totaled $24,000, a 60% increase from 2020.' Even with prices going up, many still plan on renovating. The same report from UoA includes that ' more than half (52%) of American homeowners plan on renovating [in 2024] A larger issue may be homeownership itself. For Q2 2025, the Census Bureau's latest quarterly report showed The homeownership rate at 65.0%, the lowest level since 2019. Similarly, The National Association of Home Builders published in 2024, 'The homeownership rate is below the 25-year average rate of 66.4%, due to a multidecade low for housing affordability conditions.' This is important outside of TV programming for many reasons, but its effects may influence the network. It is easy to blame lower viewership numbers on DIY TikTokers and streaming services (which are also major factors). However, there seems to be something bigger at play as well. Without homes to renovate, younger demographics may simply not be tuning in. The average age of HGTV watchers is 47.3 and over 73% of their audience owns a home. At the same time, a survey from Front Door found that people start DIY projects at an average age of 28. This survey had a couple of other interesting takeaways regarding DIY content. It found that 47% of those who did DIY projects did so because they could not afford professionals and that 52% get their inspiration from social media. The survey found that 'DIYers overwhelmingly rely on the internet when stuck, with 73% consulting YouTube and 60% turning to Google for solutions.' There are multiple factors that may be affecting HGTV, this includes social media. However, social media may be the easiest to overcome or even leverage. HGTV itself has a YouTube channel with over 890k followers. HGTV content is also available to stream through HBO Max. However, content is consistently not among the most viewed titles on the streamer. Between rising costs and lower viewership, HGTV may need to reinvent itself. The network could shift focus to social media-friendly content, lower-cost renovation and even renter-friendly content; however, unless larger factors change, many young people may not need home renovation content without homes.

Jensen Ackles Reveals The Countdown Action Scene That Sticks Out More Than Anything He's Done On The Boys: 'Certainly More Exhilarating'
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Jensen Ackles has been starring in Prime Video's newest series, Countdown, on the 2025 TV schedule, and the series is keeping viewers on the edge of their seats. The crime drama from Chicago Fire's Derek Haas is only six episodes in, but already, Countdown has proved its worth. And it's partly because of the insane action sequences. Ackles previously got real about the stunts performed on the show, and now he's opening up about his favorite action scene that sticks out more than anything on The Boys. The Supernatural alum is no stranger to doing stunts, having spent 15 years getting beaten up by and beating up demons and other supernatural creatures. Then there's The Boys, which really turns up the action and stunts with superheroes and explosions, and now Countdown. The most recent episodes have involved his character, Detective Mark Meechum, going head-to-head with criminals and surfing on top of a truck. When asked by TVLine which stunt he preferred, Ackles couldn't help but give love to both while also sharing just how exhilarating one was: Oh, man. I had a lot of fun with both. I would say probably the surfing on top of the trailer was certainly more exhilarating. I've done hand-to-hand fight scenes quite a bit. Those are a lot of fun, but they are also tricky, and you gotta make sure you hit your mark and you're making the right moves, you don't forget a move because you can catch an elbow quickly. Those are really sweaty days 'cause you do three takes and you are just drenched. The fact that Ackles actually does the stunts and does not have a stunt double, at least when it comes to certain action sequences, is pretty impressive. This type of work is certainly not easy. Of course, he's done a lot of insane stunts on The Boys that involves fighting, superpowers, flying, and even temporarily dying. But I don't think anything really compares to surfing on a truck and trying to not actually fall off. Ackles recalled what it was like filming that sequence, and it really makes me appreciate stunts and stunt performers a whole lot more: The one on top of the trailer, I mean, that's a totally different ballgame 'cause you got wires, there's all kinds of things going on. But all you gotta do is hang on. There was a lot, like when we were shooting that, like, I get knocked down and I have to throw my legs off the side, and all of that was planned. I had a line, I was picked in kind of the chest and so they dropped the anchor there in the center of the trailer so it wouldn't actually let me fall off, but still. It's like hanging over the side of a cliff and having your buddy hold on to you. It was a little nerve-wracking, but it was a lot of fun. It should be pointed out that during all these crazy things that Ackles' character is having to deal with and the people that he has to fight and find and take down, he is also dealing with migraines and is hiding a massive brain tumor. Obviously, Ackles is completely fine, but knowing that at any point Mark Meechum could be getting seriously hurt to the point of no return makes the stunts all the more excruciating to watch, but probably exhilarating to perform. There are still a handful of episodes to look forward to with Countdown, and there is no telling what else will be in store as the City of Los Angeles continues to be in danger. Considering Ackles seems to enjoy these crazy stunts, he's probably looking forward to doing more when filming on The Boys prequel Vought Rising starts, even if it can't compare to being on top of a truck. Meanwhile, new episodes of Countdown drop on Wednesdays with an Amazon Prime subscription. Fans will be able to see more of Ackles in the upcoming fifth and final season of The Boys when he reprises his role as Soldier Boy. Solve the daily Crossword
