Viewers are wondering why a new episode of The Bold and the Beautiful won’t air on CBS on December 25. Created by William J. Bell and Lee Phillip Bell, this long-running soap follows the Forrester family and their fashion empire. While their lives are full of glamour and fame, they also face challenges in both their personal and professional worlds. With episodes airing at their regular times this week, the absence of a December 25 episode from the schedule has piqued viewers’ curiosity.

Why The Bold and the Beautiful won’t air a new episode on December 25

CBS won’t premiere a new episode of The Bold and the Beautiful on December 25, likely because of Christmas. The network will broadcast a repeat of the Christmas Eve episode from last year.

Typically, networks avoid airing new episodes on Christmas, as most people are busy celebrating the holiday with friends and family. This can lead to lower viewership, which is disadvantageous for advertisers. As a result, some networks opt to give shows a day off during the holidays or follow a pre-planned winter schedule. In such cases, they may either re-run an old episode, air a holiday special, or use the timeslot for a planned presentation or sports event.

Viewers need not worry as The Bold and the Beautiful is taking just a day’s break and will return to its usual time on Friday, December 26. They can enjoy the Christmas-themed episode of the show a day before, where the Forrester family celebrates the holidays their own way.

On the December 24 episode, Ridge gives a special present to Brooke on Christmas. Love is in the air, with Daphne and Carter spending some quality time and sharing a kiss. With joyful holiday spirits around, the Forresters decide to set aside their differences and involve themselves in a family tradition.
