HOMECOMINGS AND WEDDING GUESTS FILL Y&R COMINGS AND GOINGS

This Y&R Comings and Goings roundup welcomes Melissa Ordway back as Abby Newman, gives us more face time with Lauralee Bell’s Christine Blair and Kate Linder’s Esther Valentine, cheers on Eileen Davidson’s speedy return to set, previews Patrika Darbo’s Shirley Spectra and Ashley Campbell’s Coco Spectra arriving in October and keeps the door open for Shemar Moore’s Malcolm Winters. Genoa City, get the guest room ready!


Young and the Restless Comings & Goings

Genoa City never runs short of drama, and this week’s Y&R Comings and Goings brings a whole lot of familiar faces back to help stir it. Between a Newman daughter swinging by for baby talk, a DA playing stepmom and the Spectra women packing their bags for a wedding, it’s shaping up to be a very full house.


Got a theory on who else should crash Sally and Billy’s big day, or a wish list of faces you want back in Genoa City? Email us at amber@soapoperamagazine.com, we’re always listening.


Abby Newman Comes Home

Back on set is Melissa Ordway, who returns as Abby Newman this week for the first time since August. Look for Abby to have a chat with Jason Thompson‘s Billy Abbott and Courtney Hope‘s Sally Spectra about their pending baby. That’s one conversation we wouldn’t mind eavesdropping on.

Christine Blair Plays Stepmom

Get ready for more Lauralee Bell as Christine Blair, who hasn’t been on screen since August. On Tuesday, the DA puts her lawyer hat aside to offer some counsel to her stepson, Michael Graziadei‘s Daniel Romalotti.

The Spectra Women Are Coming

Looking ahead, Patrika Darbo‘s Shirley Spectra and Ashley Campbell‘s Coco Spectra are headed to Genoa City in October for Sally and Billy’s wedding. It marks Shirley’s first time popping up in Genoa City in person rather than over a video call, and Coco has already been busy planning the bachelorette with Audra Charles. Spectra women plus an open bar? What could possibly go wrong.

Malcolm Leaves The Door Open

Shemar Moore says he’s open to more time as Malcolm Winters, though his primetime schedule rules out a full-time return. Malcolm’s last visit brought a bone marrow crisis and the bombshell that Holden Novak is his biological son, so is this an Easter egg for another visit? We’ll be keeping our eyes peeled.

More Familiar Faces Around Town

Kate Linder pops in as Esther Valentine on Wednesday, when the Crimson Lights employee shares some words of wisdom with Sharon Case‘s Sharon Newman.

And the show must go on! Eileen Davidson, who plays Ashley Abbott, is already back on set after her recent leg injury, knee brace and all.
