Love how often shemar returned for short stints over the last decade.. he is still Not Over y&R just he had major primetime success

Yay, another Josh Griffith mini-story with name guest stars he will have no idea how to use.

This is probably just a lazy way to remind viewers that Y&R once had a lot of Black characters on the front burner now that Beyond The Gates is on the air. Y&R is number one, but never underestimtate how some shows like to maintain certain demographics and a sense of achievement.

Maybe Shemar's arc on Y&R could lead him to being part of the BtG crossover.

I would have a scene of Malcolm Winters catching up with his protege Andre Richardson.

I hate how much Facebook has become such a cesspool with AI "news." Even the SON page has been called "fake" news because people can no longer trust anything posted there (Facebook, not the SON page), particularly the made-up stuff about soap stars (deaths, comings and goings, spoilers, etc.)

Same! Its unfortaunte bc people are easily duped and take it as fact

Considering the Beyond the Gates crossover already filmed, I doubt it.

I thought the SWAT spin off would premiere after the Super Bowl but I can't find anything online for a premiere date.

Sony ordered -- and they just finished filming -- a ten-episode season of the SWAT spinoff. Interestingly, Sony ordered this spinoff and had the filming done, without a buyer to air or stream it. I read that, and thought wtf? I must be misunderstanding what I was reading! So I found more articles that verify this is true. The season has been filmed with no buyer, so nobody knows when/where it will air or stream.
