HOT STORIES: Lauren, Reid, Maggie, Franco, Todd, Angie

With a few notable exceptions, Monday was a pretty good day for soaps. There was something to enjoy on all the daytime shows which wasn't the case on a couple of days last week. Here are some of the hot stories from Monday.

CLOSER TO DADDY: Jill pushed Lauren too far on THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS so Lauren pushed her back - into an empty grave.

LUKE/REID/WEDDING: The ridiculousness of Holden attempting to go to France and back in a matter of hours aside, the Luke and Reid portion of Monday's AS THE WORLD TURNS was pretty cute. And great to see Luke in a scene with his sister Abigail (Kristina Romero).



THE BATTLE FOR VICTOR: Maggie told Vivian to "bite me" on DAYS OF OUR LIVES. What a treat to see the fabulous Suzanne Rogers and Louise Sorel in a love triangle.

BOOK A SPECIAL MODEL: Franco's latest idea on GENERAL HOSPITAL involves Brenda Barrett.



YOU'RE NOT TODD MANNING: Roger Howarth photos were all the rage on ONE LIFE TO LIVE and Téa called off her wedding to Todd.

I'M LOSING MY SIGHT: Angie finally was forced to reveal to Jesse on ALL MY CHILDREN that was she losing her vision.



There are no good B&B clips on YouTube but if you're in the U.S., you can watch at CBS.com. Stephanie has fallen and she can't get up!
