Members Forever8 Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 In a weird turn of events. Robert Newman (ex-Josh Lewis) from Guiding Light is the new Ashland Locke on The Young and The Restless. He is taking over from Richard Burgi who has announced he left the role a few days ago. Exclusive! Robert Newman Is Y&R’s New Ashland! - Soap Opera Digest He would've been a good recast for Jeff Webber on GH ... sigh... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 Wha?!? Legit excited to see this. I barely watch Y&R anymore and don't tune in for that story, but totally will now to see "Joshua Lewis" back on our screens! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 Robert Newman alongside a...Newman? Trying to picture them as a couple, stranger things have happened, I guess. Good for him securing a paycheck. Maybe the CBS soaps have decided that they've scooped up enough ABC daytime soap actors and are now digging in the P&G crates? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 Shame about Burgi leaving (and something about Y&R scrambling says to me that it was Burgi's decision to leave), but Robert Newman has bags of screen presence too. I'm actually surprised he hasn't landed more soaps since GL ended, because he's good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 Always nice to see him, but ugh. I wish it was on a more interesting show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 LOL. He could have joined GH's cast of thousands (not that I would mind him on there either). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lucaslesann23 Posted January 11, 2022 Author Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) I was thinking it was a Michelle Stafford/ Gina Tognoni thing. Maybe Robert was available or somthing so they switched. Because his wife said it was the shows choice.

Members Cat Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 oh wow! That's too bad. Wonder WTH the writers were thinking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 Robert is very talented and still sexy as hell, but he'll be wasted here. I think he's actually been doing a lot of theater and TV. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 Agreed, Robert Newman seems weird as Ashland Locke, better suited as GH's Jeff or Jimmy Lee Holt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 That's stupid if true. Maybe Richard Burgi asked for too much money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Darn Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 I never thought Robert Newman would want to be shackled to a soap again in his life. But a job's a job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Manny Posted January 11, 2022 Members Share Posted January 11, 2022 Omg, thats great for Robert Newman! I will tune in to Y&R to see his debut, even though I did not watch Y&R since Kevin saw that stupid chipmunk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
