According to Soap Opera Digest Michael Graziadei (Daniel Romalotti) is returning to The Young and The Restless in the fall. Though I'm curious to know if Josh has a story for him. Or is this a stint for the 50th anniversary? Exclusive! Michael Graziadei Back To Y&R! - Soap Opera Digest

I'm sure Trevor isn't getting paid under five that's for sure. However, Trevor is one of those actors you can tell when he isn't feeling the material and it shows. I'm hoping Olivia returns to town to smack both her son and nephew upside their heads. It's clear the Barber-Winters family needs a matriarch/patriarch and I'm sorry Lily isn't capable of doing that. I mean Nate has been on for five years now and he hasn't had one conversation with his mother. If Tonya Lee Williams can't come to LA from Toronto than have her FaceTime. Or if not recast with someone like Amelia Marshall at this point. Josh needs a business consultant regarding these business stories. It seems he is playing musical chairs with Newman, Jabot/Marchetti, Chancellor-Winters etc., and has no idea what to do with them. Buzzwords aren't going to make us think these companies our worth caring about. And I wonder is it a Sony/CBS mandate about getting rid of the teens/young adults on this show. I mean Moses doesn't get a goodbye scene and Faith was shuffled off to U Of M.

And don't let her, Chloe, and Chelsea be in the same room together. I'm like all of you're the same archetype and perhaps one of you isn't needed. And I'm not talking about getting rid of Sally either.

Griffith seems to write this show like a weekly series instead of a serial drama. Why does everyone have the same conversations? Chloe has been advising both Sally and Chelsea to stay away from Adam for the last several weeks now. Is this Faith and Moses swan song for sure? Or will they trot them back out for Christmas?

They act as if Taylor is the "smart one" and Brooke is the sexually brazen who is ditzy. But we all know that she created BeLief and ran Forrester successfully for a decade. I agree Brooke should be heavily involved at Forrester. Heck she should be convincing Rick to take reins of the company since it is his birthright.

I bet it might be Janice Lynde back with hardly any dialogue as Leslie Brooks. I can't believe they literally had her essentially as a background character in her last stint. You would at least think she would have scenes with Jack and the Abbotts speaking about meeting Theo. Or her talking about her son Brooks taking over Prentis or mentioning what she and her sisters our up to these days. But nope she was the piano woman.

This! And Samuel Skillbeck would be back with a family of his own. Sigh...

The podcast Distinct Nostalgia is continuing interviewing Past Emmerdale Stars for the upcoming 50th anniversary of the show. And soon they will be talking with Jane Hutcheson who played Sandie Merrick from 1980-1989. @I Am A Swede @DRW50

Another episode from 1985

Fan Favorites? I'm guessing Jill, Ashley, Traci, and perhaps Nina? Though if we're getting a Brooks sisters' reunion, I'm going to need them to have more than two lines and to have actual purpose to interact with the present characters. And this crossover better involve Sheila and Lauren seeing each other and drama ensues from there. Though like others have said I wouldn't be surprised if we get some lackluster fashion show between Forrester and Marchetti. But when was the last time Forrester actually had a decent business storyline?

I don't think Burgess was the right fit for Billy, but he wasn't a bad actor. He had brought more of a 'Oh Shucks vibe" though which wasn't Billy Abbott. But I do think he had more chemistry with Gina Tognoni's Phyllis than Jason Thompson's Billy which is unpopular itself.

An episode of Loving from 1985 has recently been uploaded. @dc11786 @DRW50

The cast of Beverly Hills 90210 has gone through so much lost recently with Denise Dowse and now Joe E. Tata has passed away.

FYI has uploaded these promos from 1996 featuring Reva, Josh, Dinah and Phillip.

Loving - 2-17-1990

Exactly! I'm tired of this show acting as if Brooke is the only one who has done wrong in the past thirty-five years. And they don't tend to mention Ridge's either i.e., Shauna or Morgan DeWitt for starters. And let's not forget raping Brooke etc.,

We'll see.. But NBC should've gave TPTB more warning this was happening. February of next year is a long time for anyone to wait for these changes. A curse when it comes to filming episodes nearly nine months in advance. I haven't seen one promo yet of the move to Peacock during DAYS or anytime on the network. If they were smart, they would use Deidre Hall in the promo about the move to Peacock.

It feels like Josh writes this show like an episodic primetime series instead of a soap with any long story. I'm not keen when several characters change career fields at the same time. Nate should've remained a doctor but still could've been on the board of Hamilton-Winters. I'm ready for the Imani and Nate affair to happen soon.

Wish her well and success of this show. She probably can see the sketchy writing on the wall and left.

Another Locher interview coming up Actress Toby Poser will join me live in The Locher Room on Wednesday, August 24th at 3 p.m. EST / 12 p.m. PST. Toby will be here to talk about her artistic collaboration with her husband and two daughters working together on Wonder Wheel Productions. Wonder Wheel epitomizes a can-do attitude toward independent filmmaking: as cast and crew, they write, act, and shoot; they produce, direct, edit and score it all.

With The CW soon to cater to the geriatric demographic I think her best chances is to end up on cable or a streaming series soon.

Couldn't said it better myself.
