According to the Y&R insider account on twitter Zach Tinker is back as Fen for the holidays. I am glad he's back if only for a brief visit. I wish he would stick around longer. I also wish Ana would come back even if that was only for a visit as well. (Though I would love if she came back and stuck around longer.) I'm still disappointed that the show wasted Fen/Ana individually and missed a good opportunity to pair them romantically.

Bittersweet! Fen and Ana should be the their lead young couple but instead we gotta accept a weak ass holiday visit from him. Hell, at this point I'd accept Ana returning too, them hitting it off and pursuing something off screen.

I would take that lol. I agree they really should have been a young couple on this show. Heck, I would have even taken a situation after Loren was let go where Ana left town to help Fen record his debut album in a music city like LA or Nashville. (And she also could have helped produced worked with other artists/producers off screen). And then maybe that turning into a romance off screen. Devon/Michael/Lauren could have mentioned them in passing from time to time.  That would have been a better send off than the show essentially making Ana's Jett's full time caregiver initially due to issues with his vocal chords. Recently Elena did mention they were worried Jett could have cancer but his biopsy came back negative. Ana was sent away without ever having a love interest and basically had to give up her career in the music business. IMO, that is wrong. 

 

I also didn't like how they had Fen relapse off screen just to have Lauren/Michael be angry at Adam. Which didn't lead to anything for them as they have barely been featured since then and Lauren never got to get revenge on Adam like she vowed to get. Neither Fen, Michael or Lauren really got any storyline for that. They should have just had Fen conclude his tour and go and start working on his album somewhere. (He could have settled into whatever city he went to, while working on his album.) Especially since they wanted to keep him off screen.

Glad he's at least coming for a visit. He never should have been dumped (and it goes without saying Loren Lott shouldn't have been either).

I'm so disappointed in what happened to Lauren. I LOVED the slow build of a romance with Jack. He's overdue for a good love interest and she could've been it. Plus with Michael going to the dark side with Adam and you could've had a fresh story steeped in history that would be anything but boring. Overall with Josh Griffith I see lots of great dramatic ideas, but they usually go for the more boring route in execution. I don't get it.

Oh, well.  There's always persuading Taylor Miller to return to acting. 

 

I'm not getting too excited about Tinker's return.  For one thing, it'll be brief.  For another, I suspect his off-screen issues (his failed music career, his return to drug using and dealing) will be glossed over.

i never cared for Fen and tbh I never cared for Ana. Like, i have no reason to care. lol 🤷‍♂️

I liked Loren. She madee care about Ana. 

Y&R should put Zach Tinker back on contract as Fen.  It was stupid and ignorant how they treated him and Lorna Lott(ex-Ana).  They both should be front and center.

I'd rather have Fen instead of new Chance.

No, they shouldn't.  Let Tinker be free to pursue better jobs.

And apparently Tinker is now gone per SOD.

 

Meanwhile, Fen is off to Nashville.

 

What a waste.
