Trigger warning: One character commands another character to shoot himself. This was in the promo for week of Feb. 5th. They put that in the promo without any hotline info. This scene airs in episode of Mon. Feb. 5. They don't go through with it, but still... Here is crisis hotline info if anyone needs it: Dial 988 https://988lifeline.org Crisis Text Line International https://www.crisistextline.org/ USA text HOME to 741741 United Kingdom – Text SHOUT to 85258 Canada – Text CONNECT to 686868 Ireland – Text HOME to 50808- GH: January 2024 Episode Count
Ah thanks. That makes sense. Especially since there is always the possibility of an exited actor reappearing via flashback.- GH: January 2024 Episode Count

Danielle Unger is the person in charge of Y&R (at CBS) July 2023 interview with Peter Bergman via Michael Maloney, about Jack and DIane https://soaphub.com/young-restless/news-yr/peter-bergman-reveals-why-yrs-smilin-jack-abbott-is-all-smiles/ In November 2021, Bergman was recuperating from an eye injury but any discomfort he was feeling was soon alleviated after receiving a phone call from head writer/co-executive producer Josh Griffith and Danielle Unger, Director Current, CBS. “They wanted to talk to me about this person they wanted to bring back,” Bergman says, referring to the decision to resurrect the role of Diane who would once again be played by Walters. ---- December 2023 interview with Brad Sanders ("Clarence updates") https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/exclusive-brad-sanders-on-bringing-clarence-back-to-the-young-and-the-restless/ According to comedian/actor/writer Brad Sanders, it was his idea to bring his alter ego, Clarence — his street-talking persona, who offered a daily rundown of Y&R starting in 1986 — back to the soap, which celebrated its milestone 50th anniversary earlier this year. He explains, “One of the radio stations said, ‘Look, man, you need to be a part of the 50th anniversary. You should be there!’ And I said, ‘Yeah, let me call!’ So I called [Vice President, Daytime Programs, CBS] Margot Wain and she called [Director at CBS] Danielle Unger and they were like, ‘Yeah, it sounds great!’ And they set it all up.” ------- Linked-in profile of Danielle Unger: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielle-unger-87130626a/ Quoting her Linked-in: Danielle Unger Director in Current Programming for CBS May 2022 – Present As a Director in Current Programming for CBS, I oversee The Young and the Restless.

Ron's writing ideas aired only into second week of December. None of his ideas have aired since then. The shift in focus was likely from the firedguy who was giving supervision to the nonunion writers. That was implied by Deadline here: "writers strike, which has shifted some of [firedguy]’s attention to keeping scripts being generated" https://deadline.com/2023/07/days-of-our-lives-misconduct-investigation-albert-alarr-1235417732/ From the way Deadline worded that, it seems that firedguy was unofficially headwriting. We will have another two months of stuff the firedguy oversaw in writing, that was written before he was fired and taped after he left. The only hope for changes in that would be if Janet nixed prewritten scripts.- The Politics Thread

Griffith has revisited a lot of old storylines in the past 10 months for the 50th anniversary and beyond. For example: Mamie/Jill, Victor/Eve, Victoria/Cole, Devon/Harmony/Tucker, Cameron Kirsten, Daniel/Lily, the horrid Christine/Danny/Phyllis triangle, etc. and now Ashley feeling gaslit. And one-or-two-day tributes of the Winters remembering Neil and the Abbotts remembering John. Some of these storyline revisits worked, and some were bad, and some were merely checking off boxes. As I mentioned in an above post: "I wonder who got Griffith to pivot Sharon to be out on her own? And to actually put some of Sharon's individual character personality jnto her company - by making it give donations to underage drinking education, and showing her warmth at her company's launch. And in today's (Jan. 30th) episode when she tells her employees over Zoom that they need to focus on service. I was like wow, Sharon is being written as a person and not the usual Y&R interchangeable executive." They keep showing Nick admiring Sharon for what she's doing with her company. First at her Jan. 15 launch party. And now today Jan. 30 Nick stands in the background observing her doing her Zoom meeting with her employees. Well, upon pondering this further, my random speculation is that Griffith feels he has to revisit Shick and is checking off that box. But it doesn't feel that organic to me. - DAYS: February 2024 Discussion Thread
