To be honest, it doesn’t really excite me. I’ll wait and see.

First things first – someone will have to introduce him to his parents….

Best comment of the day!!! Spot on!

+1 – Excellent!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don’t put Ridge and Brooke together!! That ship has sailed and they have NO chemistry.
Huge mistake to suddenly stop the best love story they had with Ridge and Caroline.

I completely agree. I think Ronn Moss and Katherine Kelly Lang had a wonderful chemistry that nobody can replace. I can’t see that happening now. Like you said that ship has sailed. I can see them remaining friends for the sake of their son, but I don’t see any kind of connection when they have their scenes together. As strange as this may sound, I never cared for him as Ridge, but I loved the whole story involving Caroline, and I was so upset when they broke up. I cried during the episode of the break up. Just don’t let it mean a Brooke and Ridge come back

Ronn and Katherine are the ONLY Ridge and Brooke. No offense to Thorsten Kaye and his new Ridge.

At least he can’t date Steffy or Hope!

And yet…. this show has a history of going over the top… nothing would be beyond the reach LOL.

He is going to reveal he is gay…

I really hope you’re right!

I hope so. This would finaly be a good storyline but indont trust B&B to tell it. Do we even see Mya anymore?

If that’s the case, he’ll last about six weeks on the show.

Definitely would have been believable if Moss was still in the role. His scarves were just a little too precious.

We rarely see Maya now, such a shame, so much more story to tell with a trans character, instead we get constant repetitive Liam Spencer love triangles.

Gee, Ridge and Brooke remembered they have a son? Shocker! Boring!

great news, I hope he can act. He looks like a cute twink

Ronn Moss was Ridge Forrester he was that character for 25 years . Thorsten Kaye is not Ridge Brad Bell was having a childish moment should have left the character off the canvas maybe worked the character of Thorne but this kid being brought on won’t help the ratings who will be in his group to offset him with? No offense but KKL has zero chemistry with TK he is not Ridge fold the tent admit you were wrong BB and send Ridge away

It’s about time!!!

How old is this kid now I what to knoowwwww!!!!!and he is a hot tamale

The kid hates the stupid sword ring. Definitely a Forestier, already trying to control everyone like his step-sister. (She should have gotten Quinn’s ring… WOW!!!)

Not liking this kid RJ but i understand wanting to keep parents together. However, like most fans, RM and KKL will be the only Ridge and Brooketo me. BRidge is no more. Make Bill and Brooke a power couple

This boy might be a decent actor , however, I think the casting is wrong, there is no physical resemblance, he is too short, and seems babyish. I have noticed this type of casting on other tv shows like blue blood’s Nicki , the granddaughter.

yeah Bill and Brooke are hot together and a great couple. I agree no chemistry for Boorke and the new Ridge. He is better with caroline in my opinion. No Chemistry is right! It is really sad writing that the only reason that brought RJ on is to try and reconnect his parents that have not been together in a long time. Also, last time Ridge or Brooke even saw RJ, he was a baby. He would not even remember then together.

Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun Written Out of The Young and the Restless

Published

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 Says She Will Return to ‘The View’ During its Season 30

Rosie O'Donnell

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.
