We didn't see this one coming:

The character of Jake Maclaine is returning to The Bold and the Beautiful. Moreover, he'll be played by the same actor who originated the role: Todd McKee.

We haven't seen Jake since 1993. He's guest starred over the years on shows such as CSI and 7th Heaven.

Now, viewers can look forward to watching him again during the day, beginning on November 14.
