The youngest of the four remaining network soap operas will continue at least through the 2023-24 television season. CBS has renewed The Bold and the Beautiful TV series for two more years — seasons 36 and 37 of the drama.
Created by William J. Bell and Lee Phillip Bell in 1987, The Bold and the Beautiful revolves around the Forrester family and their fashion house, Forrester Creations, in Los Angeles. This season, the daytime drama’s cast has included Matthew Atkinson, Katrina Bowden, Kimberlin Brown, Darin Brooks, Scott Clifton, Delon de Metz, Don Diamont, Sean Kanan, Thorsten Kaye, Katherine Kelly Lang, John McCook, Annika Noelle, Tanner Novlan, Denise Richards, Lawrence Saint-Victor, Aaron D. Spears, Rena Sofer, Heather Tom, Diamond White, and Jacqueline MacInnes Wood. Recurring players include Dick Christie, Jennifer Gareis, Avalon and Collette Gray, Ted King, Naomi Matsuda, Dan Martin, Alley Mills, Henry Joseph Samiri, Jeremy Ray Valdez, and Samantha Worden.
The current 35th season is averaging a 0.34 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.92 million viewers in the live+same day ratings. Compared to the 34th season, that’s down by 11% in the demo and up by 3% in viewers. It’s the second-highest-rated soap, behind CBS’ The Young and the Restless.
Here’s the renewal announcement from CBS:
