For the second week in a row, due to the UEFA Champions League soccer semi-finals, The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful may or may not be available to watch at their regularly scheduled time for West Coast viewers. Here's everything you need to know.

The UEFA Champions League semi-finals match between Inter Milan and Barcelona takes place on Tuesday, May 6, and the match between PSG and Arsenal takes place Wednesday, May 7. Both matches begin at 3 pm ET/noon PT on CBS and other viewing platforms. The UEFA pregame show, UEFA Champions League Today, will air one hour before gametime at 2 pm ET/11 am PT.

West Coast soaps fans who usually tune into The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful around noon will need to check their local listings to see when the soaps will air.

Both The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful may air earlier in the morning beginning at approximately 9:30 am PT in some locations, but it's possible that The Young and the Restless will come on after the match and The Bold and the Beautiful won't air at all. Be sure to check your local listings as the showtimes will vary by TV market depending on where you are.

If you're in a location where The Bold and the Beautiful and The Young and the Restless aren't airing, rest assured you'll be able to watch them for free on the CBS website. The latest episodes will show up in the afternoon each day. You can also stream the shows on Paramount Plus later in the evening.

Beyond the Gates will not air new episodes on May 6 or 7 and will pick up with new episodes again on Thursday, May 8.
