Y&R Spumor: Someone is out.

[Southern]

Daytime Confidential rumors is reporting that Eden Reigel will be leaving The Young and the Restless. I don't know if Heather will be recast or not. A last air date was not given.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Good riddance if true, they shouldn't have cast her in the first place.

I hope ABC doesn't want her back as Bianca either. The new actress works just fine in the role from what I've seen.

[Cheap21]

Thank god! Unfortunately I feel AMC is going to pull a Budig on CBL who is doing just fine as Bianca

It would be great if this is true as Riegel is terrible and has turned Heather into an even more useless character. If the role is recast, I predict they'll try to cast Marnie Schulenburg in the role.

What will DC, Branco, etc. and others who hyped her so much early on say? Will they criticize Y&R for their terrible handling of her or will they not say anything since they want Y&R to do well?

Generally the AMC-ization of Y&R has been a flop, with only one or two actors managing to hang on, in spite of many attempts to make viewers love the characters.

I think AMC might keep Lind. They haven't given Bianca any real stories in years and they can keep her as a supporting character now, one who will stay around. Eden tended to come and go. I don't even think Eden would want to go back, and I can see why, as Bianca had reached a dead end as a character.

[London]

Plz be true. I do not want her back on AMC.

[Darn]

They'd given up on writing her anything substantial but I'd hardly say she's reached a dead end as a character. For one, we still haven't seen her fall in love with anyone. Lena and Reese do not count. At all.

VailHeather vs Sharon, personally the only way I can accept Adam redemption if he becomes VailHeather bitch.

[AllMyDaysatGH]

Where is the link to this info?? I am not seeing this news on the Daytime Confidential website.

[DRW50]

I agree with you, but I think in the context of what today's soap world will allow her, she'd reached a dead end. They did allow some passion with Reese but even that became about how Reese really needed a man.

If Bianca stays then she might just be there as Kendall's sister/Erica's daughter. I thought that worked great in 2002 and 2003 but they've lost their way so much with the characters.

OTOH, if the rumors are true (that AMC only brought Binks back w/ CBL in order to spite ER for "defecting" to Y&R), then I wouldn't put it past TPTB to hold onto CBL just to spite Eden again.

[DeeeDee]

Thank God Terri Colombino is on OLTL now.

[Adam]

Thank god! She never fit (and we all knew she never would).

[Evan]

She was a bad recast - they never should have let Vail Bloom go!

[dragonflies]

AMC will keep CBL cause they're not doing anything with Bianca. She's just basically window dressing.
