The latest promo for The Young and the Restless shows that all roads lead to the 11,000th episode airing next week on September 1st. In it, several stories are set to unfold and could collide!
First, Adam ((Justin Hartley) and Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan) and their son Connor are reunited following Victor (Eric Braeden) helping Adam escape prison. With the plan being for this family to go on the run and leave Genoa City, will they succeed?
Elsewhere, the duplicitous Luca (Miles Gaston Villanueva) is holding Summer (Hunter King) at gun point, when Jack (Peter Bergman) walks in. Will his deception that he sabotaged the oil rigs spell the end of him now that Travis (Michael Roark) has ratted him out!
Speaking of Travis, he’s back to win over Victoria (Amelia Heinle), and they get hot and heavy! But, Is Travis true blue? And Neil (Kristoff St, John) finally meets the woman who walked away from him when he was just a kid as dark family secrets are about to be revealed! Finally, Dylan (Steve Burton) and Paul (Doug Davidson) are on the case in what looks to be one dark night!
Watch the dramatic heart-stopping Y&R promo after the jump. Then weigh-in on how all of these stories will unfold and play out in the comment section below!
I’m beginning to love the show! Has Mal’s material begun?
I believe that it has!
I agree. It is starting to perk up a bit. Let’s hope it stays that way. As the old saying goes, tune in tomorrow!!!
Yes, Mal took over as executive producer about a month ago.
Need to keep the character of Travis the best chemistry AH has had since Miller left you need to shelve the Billy and Victoria story and move her along she has chemistry with this actor that plays Travis don’t make her carry a story out with a actor she shares no chemistry with. Why is Jason Thompson playing Billy as arrogant and just blah! Dissapointed
k/Kay…Agree about Travis and Victoria chemistry. It’s like a breath of fresh air compared to Billy and any of the other Y&R couples for that matter. Feel bad about Jason. I was hoping he would have a meatier role than Dr. Patrick on GH, but really don’t like how they are writing for him on Y&R.
Colleen’s heart finally took over Victor’s body as he tried to make things right with Adam.
Ahhh, Timmmy!!!! Too late!!!! Over and over again; Victor screws up, then tries to remedy the situation…alas; leaving havoc in his wake….I do not see a repetition of the same mistake as making amends. He manipulated and schemed by having someone else take the blame. Oh, my Timmmy!! That’s not making things right! Making things right is taking the blame upon himself and apologize to Adam and all involved by admitting the truth. That is the stuff that makes a man!!!!!
However, I will agree with you, if only Victor is sincere. Once this episode is said and done, Victor will continue to garner his storehouse of debauchery and criminal brain. He must. It is what it is. We need evil as much as good…..all these characters are Victor’s little foils….LOL. But, never will I give Victor the title of repentant.
Victor deserves a dishonorable discharge. When will he pay for his sins? That is the only way he will be forgiven…..starting the first chapter of his brand new book. NO MORE TYRANNY!!!! Love you!!!!!
For Victor it is as close as you get to an apology. Do you suppose his actions COULD be tied to his horrific childhood? I know he always brings that up and wants to protect his family but could this be a legitimate excuse? I say no. Kids who grow up in rough neighborhoods who get a break and pee it away often blame their childhood and lack of parental guidance BUT wouldn’t one want to prevail from that living hell? Victor means well BUT he protects one and hurts THREE! Love you to!
I suppose you’re right, my Timmmy. I have never dealt with anyone as Victor. I hope I never do.
Growing up, my father ‘s lecture to us girls would always end the same way ; wolves run rampant/amok in all neighborhoods ; of the male persuasion, that is..
God bless your dad! I cannot imagine trying to Navigate daughters through a maze of evil wolves! So, you are Little Red Riding Hood? Luv ya!
I am married to a tamed wolf, Timmmy. Little Red Riding Hood no more. HaHa.
But, you’re right. Men are very protective and possessive of their daughters. My poor Daddy has four. He is not the same with my two brothers. It’s a different kind of worry, I guess. Now, with all the grandchildren, his hair is greying by the minute. LOL.
This is why I don’t understand Victor’s volatile persona. That’s not the way a father treats his children. He tries to protect his daughters and granddaughter from men he does not approve….but, he goes about it in such a diabolical way. All I ask is for the writers to send him to that facility for the mentally ill.
It seems that the writers can’t make up their minds about him. The yo-yo effect is dizzying.
Why do ‘they’ inject Victor with so much bitter poison only to make him regret his actions? Over and over. It was interesting when the idea was new and original. But, now, it’s annoying.
Love you, too, Timmmy.
I totally agree with you k/kay. I loved AH with Travis practically fro day one. To me me the Billy and Victoria ship sailed when the chcharacter of Billy became a revolving door of actors. Let continue their friendship for the sake of the kids. But other than that, it’s time the moved on. I am hoping that after Friday’s episode, Luca and Summer will finally be over. I say replace Luca with Travis. Given the proper chance, Victoria and Travis could be a wonderful couple. I really don’t understand where they are taking the character of Billy. To arrogant and smug for my taste. A little whiny as well. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.
I think that initially they were letting the actor that plays Travis go but I think they had to sense the chemistry with AH and brought him back. Like I have said I just can’t get into JT’s version of Billy I think maybe with the revolving door of actors they should have sent him out of town until Miller came back now that JFP is gone he might have came back eventually. I sure don’t think Miller looks happy at all at GH
Y&R is in a really good place right now, and the ratings prove it. Mal Young is doing a great job so far as executive producer, and Chuck Pratt’s material has been really good lately. The directing has been top-notch too, and so have the location shoots. It’s no wonder why Y&R is #1.
A big part of that is because the show has always kept the major story surrounding its core families, the Newmans and Abbotts. Most characters from each family is part of a big story and has something going on, and Y&R knows how to create umbrella stories that encompass the majority of the cast.
If you look at GH, the show feels very disjointed. There are loose-end characters all over the place that don’t fit into the fabric of show at all, and are therefore relegated to their own separate stories, instead of being intertwined into the bigger picture of the show. Furthermore, there are very few members of GH’s core families remaining that are seen regularly on the show, except, of course, for the Corinthos’ who are featured nearly every day of the week. Most of GH is populated by newbies with no ties to the canvas and no history in Port Charles.
Whereas, the majority of Y&R’s cast is characters who have been in Genoa City for years, and even characters who were once newbies (Chelsea, Chloe, Stitch, Cane, etc.) have been woven into the canvas and mesh with the other characters. Nearly everyone on the show has spent screen time with each other, whereas on GH, there are characters who have been in town for months and are only now meeting other characters (i.e. Ava and Hayden’s meeting on Friday’s episode).
It looks like Luca will finally be taken off the canvas, which I’m happy about. I never liked the character, even though Miles Gaston Villanueva plays him so well. I’m really looking forward to learning more about Neil’s past with Nichelle Nichols’s character. And, surprisingly, I really like Travis and Victoria together.
However, I think it would have been better if Y&R brought in Michael Roark as a recast J.T. and Chrishell Stause as Mac instead of Bethany. That way, there would be some longevity with their characters, because I don’t see Travis sticking around much longer, and Bethany is already gone.
Great post–I agree.
Y&R is finally starting to show life again.
And dare I hope that we are going to get a break from Chelsey’s constant histrionics?
Nope Harry it is obvious that they plan on pairing her with Nick that is why the sudden love fest between Nick &Adam and Adam telling Nick to take care of Connor. Obvious!
Looks good. Seems like Luca will be gone soon–good.
I want Adam free from prison and back in GC with his family.
I would like to see Bethany return, but don’t know how that could happen.
Interesting to get some backstory on Neil.
I’d like that too, Mo.
The only way Bethany would be able to return, in my opinion, is to expose Victor and Chloe. I find it so frustrating how these two have gotten away with so much. But, I guess both of them feel justified….Victor’s vendetta and “I will show you” attitude towards Adam; and Chloe’ s vicious pay-back. Sadly, she does not see that her and Victor’s calculated crime is worse than any accident.
The difference between Victor and Chloe is that she was motivated by hurt, insanity and pain; wanting to inflict the same pain on Adam…..Victor did it out of pure evil and misplaced, arrogant pride….methodical, to boot.
It looks like the current run of Lucas Adams (Noah) and Tamara Braun (Sienna) on The Young and the Restless is coming to an end, after the Monday, August 3 edition of the CBS daytime drama revealed that Noah and Sienna are leaving Genoa City and heading back to Los Angeles.
In the storyline, Noah informed his mother, Sharon (Sharon Case) and half-sister Mariah (Camryn Grimes) that he and Sienna made the decision to move back to the West Coast to put distance between themselves and Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). Although Noah did not say it was a permanent move, he did assure his mom that once Matt is hopefully gone from Genoa City they could return.
However, as previewed already on the video teaser for this week’s episodes of Y&R (see below), it appears Noah left Genoa City’s The Shadow Room to be run by a returning Danny Romalotti (Michael Damian). So with that, coupled with today’s episode, it would appear the move could wind up being more permanent.

COMINGS AND GOINGS
Adams made his Y&R debut on November 4, 2025 as the successor to Rory Gibson who last played Noah on-screen in April of 2023. Earlier in 2025, Gibson took over the role of Michael Corinthos on Genera Hospital replacing Chad Duell, who stepped away from the part after 15 years.
Braun who played Adam’s mother on Days of Our Lives when she was Ava Vitali and he was Tripp Dalton, first appeared on Y&R back on October 14, 2025, where we soon learned she had become Noah’s lover as the new character, Sienna Bacall. It should be noted, Adams was on contract with the number #1 soap, while Braun has been on recurring status.
With Josh Griffith now exited as head writer of The Young and the Restless, and the newly announced co-head writing team of Jamey Giddens and Dan O’Connor having taken his place and starting their new tenure this week, it will be interesting to see how the duo resets the show, and if a Noah and Sienna return is in the cards for the future or not.
So, what do you think about the seeming departures of Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun from The Young and the Restless? Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, check out our recent live chat with Tamara and Lucas on the Michael Fairman Channel.
Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.
The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.
The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW
As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.
O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”
Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”
You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.
Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.
