The Bold and the Beautiful and The Young and the Restless are planning a crossover episode of epic, er Eric proportions.
John McCook will be bringing his B&B alter ego, Eric Forrester, to Y&R's Genoa City for a story in which the fashion mogul reunites with his former flame Lauren (Tracey Bregman). The moment should be a special one for longtime fans, given the pair had a brief yet memorable fling in the late 90s when Lauren temporarily relocated to Los Angeles.
According to Entertainment Weekly, the episode is scheduled to air on Friday, January 27, and will likely circle around business, seeing as how Eric is the founder of fashion company Forrester Creations and Lauren is considering an investment from Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman) for her own fashion firm.
