The Young and the Restless has a classic episode on tap for tomorrow’s Friday April 3rd installment.  Look for a re-airing of the very first wedding of the iconic Victor (Eric Braeden) and Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott).
The episode originally aired back on April 13, 1984.  In story, the long-awaited wedding of Victor and Nikki is in jeopardy as Victor’s obsessed former secretary, Eve Howard (Margaret Mason), waits in the wings to harm the bride.

Meanwhile, Katherine Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper) makes a grand entrance, Paul Williams (Doug Davidson) escorts Lauren Fenmore (Tracey Bregman) to the nuptials, and Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) dreams of her own upcoming wedding to Eric Garrison (Brian Matthews).

The wedding episode remains one of Y&R’s all-time highest-rated moments.

A brand new original episode of Y&R will air on Monday, April 6th.

So excited to see this classic episode of Y&R tomorrow? Comment below.

i liked Margaret Mason as Linda on Days…wish days would rebroadcast..Doug and julie’s wedding…speaking of Days…i get budget cuts and all but im sick and tired of everyone there who can officiate a wedding_Julie, Abe, marlena and Kermit The Frog-ok, kidding about kermit…cant we at least have former priest eric instead…or at least a day player…soaps need a good old fashion wedding too

Hi Jimh–. I get why MF updated his website, but I kinda miss the old site, with the regulars — I don’t get here much. I hope you are doing okay.

I totally agree with you on the weddings– but Days has been doing that for a while– but considering most weddings on Days are interrupted, I guess the guy in accounting figured why pay someone to stand there when that happens, and just use an actor they were paying to be at the wedding anyway.

And those lavish weddings of the past are long gone-never to return again sigh

Well, its good to hear from you…i hope your ok too…im dealing with some medical problems and was scheduled for testing at hospital then this Pandemic happened i delayed testing until June hoping things improve by then…ya, budgets-no more lavish weddings!!!

I didn’t see it the first time so I am looking forward to this.

I d rather sooo many other classic episodes than the show always pandering to Eric and Melody. We get it. Their the stars of the show!
But show some other actors some love!
Shelias reign of terror on Lauren
Michael rapes Christine
Paul and the Cassandra mystery
Nina and David Kimble
The Dru/ Neil/ Olivia / Malcolm days
Ashley runs off and goes crazy
Matt Clark/ Sharon/Nick
Victoria catches Nina and Ryan
Gloria and John
Phyliss comes to town with Dannys ‘ child’
The possiblities are endless…
Y n r is sooo rich with history. I hope we get some variety, not just Vic, Nikki, and Jack epis
I cant wait for the classic ‘ real’ background music and for newer viewers to witness the true once great young and restless. What an embaressment the show s become.

Damien, I agree with you on all your post…YOU have my support…All the shows you mentioned would be so great to watch again…once they run out of new shows hopefully they will broadcast the classics and YES the real background music and I agree 100%, Y&R is no more and such an embarrassment, it’s no longer Y&R that Bill and Lee Phillip created, extremely sad.

Thanks Kevin!
Bells vision continued with Kay Alden at the healm which i recall was ended during the big writers strike! She was marvelous at continuing the true essense of Bill Bells creation! LML took over and that was the beginning of the end. Hopefully this latest break from the broadcasting will end the non writing team of Josh Griffith and maybe sony and cbs will beg Kay Alden to return to train the next generation of writers and recreate Bills legacy!!!!..and the real music too!!!

Damien, you are most welcome…it’s so refreshing that someone else longs for what Y&R use to be… YES, I have said the same thing regarding Kay Alden…I guess we can dream that they would beg Kay Alden to return to train the next generation. It’s so nice that even younger folks like you know the difference of the good old days and what is really good and what’s not…

Damien, what about when Vanessa Prentiss set up Lorie Brooks by jumping off the balcony, CLASSIC Y&R, oh the good old days.

I was too young then. I first recall watching when phillip chancellor jr died in a car accident with the teen set of cricket and Nina!!! The good ol days indeed!

I do remember the teen set of Cricket and Nina…THANKS again Damien for your vision of this once great soap…

Agree with you 100%! And, I would even dig back into the archives further– the Lori Brookes murder trial of Vanessa, Jennifer Brookes’ breast surgery, Leslie Brookes’ concert meltdown, Kay Chancellor’s “live” face lift. Holy Cow– these were such inventive stories! And, I miss Gina Romalotti’s singing. As well as the classic music. You’d think the writers today would heed the pleas of faithful, longtime viewers.

HELLO Ron, YES, so many great stories along with Lori and Vanessa, Jennifer’s breast surgery and Leslie’s concert meltdown and YES, Gina Romalottis singing, what a beautiful voice she has…CBS top brass don’t care about us long time viewers or even listen to us but we are the ones that know what a great daytime drama/soap is all about.

Is this the end of Y&R until the COVID-19 is past? It is one thing to look forward to, but if we’re hit by that virus, it may be the end of seeing anything new on our show.

This wedding was way before my time so I can’t wait to see it.

Y&R doesn’t air here in Hell, but props to them for doing flashback fridays correctly. As opposed to GH which threw up a really weak episode from last year.

that episode has been pulled out dusted off and shown more than a couple of time..
I’d like to see the ”beginning”
Episodes from the first ummm 5 years,,
Something interesting..

side note__
Y&Y is circling the drain..
it has become more than boring..
the overkill of pretend fake sex scenes are ISHHH.
and the loooong boring go-nowhere conversations, snooor.

the cancer story is a fail; all family support, little cancer realities.
it has little to do with the actual cancer horrors it’s a support story..
but– Sharon is doing excellent acting !!!
PS;
Victor didn’t kill anyone
Adams mother did (accidentally)
and Victor covered it up .. yawn, same’ol..

Yes, they need to start broadcasting the show from the beginning…

That would be a fantastic idea. Although,from what I understand, CBS may not have the complete originals because every now and then they would tape over the old shows. But, I might be– and hope I am– wrong. Nonetheless, CBS could string 2 episodes together every day for 60 minutes. I wouldn’t miss a single showing.

Hope is dead, so why would Victor give into Adam’s blackmail, it is not like they can put Hope in jail. I think it will turn out Adam killed the guy and repressed the memory– The guy was probably attacking his mother, so Adam grabbed something and hit him on the head– and Victor is protecting Adam from remembering — I mean that isn’t much better than Hope being responsible but a least it will be a bit more ironic, where Adam gets screwed over by his own scheme

I saw it when it originally aired and have watched it a few times since then. It’s such a reminder of the wonderful era of the 80s. Everything was perfect from the costumes, the music and the sets. Can you imagine a wedding in today’s age where nearly every actor on the show attended?

I miss so many things about the glory days of Y&R, but especially Jeanne Cooper as Kay Chancellor. She was magic!

And of course KCBS in Los Angeles promptly cut it off for a breaking news break and that was that.

for the millions of fans who watch online;
the Friday rerun episodes are not shown..
ABC- CBS.

Sad for I noticed that, very sad.

Here are some of my ALL-TIME FAVORITE Y&R moments…
1. Sharon dumping Nick at the altar. OK…that one was sort of recent…lol.
2. Sharon finding out about Mariah being Cassie’s sister.
3. Lauren breaking up the almost Nina and Phyliss catfight.
4. The Lauren and Sheila rivalry.
5. Terrible Tom.
6. Michael and Kevin’s very emotional fight in that boxing ring.
7. Nina shooting David Kimble.
8. David Kimble’s death via that trash compactor.
9. The Katherine and Jill rivalry.
10. Sarah aka Veronica the maid.

The list goes on and on…

Later.

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

Published

By

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

Published

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.
