Bold and the Beautiful Hiatus Stretches Into May – California Lockdown Kills New Episodes
Bold and the Beautiful last filmed on Friday, March 13. There was some chatter that the actors might be back to work on May 5. However, California extended its shelter-in-place order through May 15. That means the earliest they could resume shooting is May 18, on a Monday.
As of now, it’s up in the air whether the state will lockdown residents past mid-May. Then, there’s the matter of Bold and the Beautiful (and all TV shows) being considered non-essential. So, if CA allows people back to work on a sliding scale, more essential jobs will re-activate first.
That could leave actors and production staff our of work until later in the month. Plus, Bold and the Beautiful can’t just film an episode one day and air it the next. It’s more likely they’ll need to have a couple of weeks of shooting before they have more shows ready for air.
