Has Michael Roark Wrapped Up His Run For Good On Y&R?
Photo Credit: RoarkTwitter
We hardly knew ye! That is what many fans of the CBS Daytime drama, The Young and the Restless are saying Thursday morning after a post over the last 24 hours from actor Michael Roark who popped up on to the scene in Genoa City as Travis, and fell for Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle).
In a post on Twitter, Roark with a photo of himself waving goodbye shared: “Travis says goodbye & sails out of town. Will he come back for his girl?TY fans, cast & crew. #Tricky #YR
But is Roark going out of town and never coming back, or will he return down the line? That is the question. With Travis, out of the equation this could lead to a possible reconcilation down the line between Billy (Jason Thompson) and Victoria, who already this week shared a heartfelt moment with their kids in an episode on Wednesday.
So, sad to hear Michael is gone as Travis? Do you hope he returns? Do you want Billy and Victoria back together? Share your thoughts in the comment section below!

well mal young (exec producer) tweeted ” End of a chapter, Not end of a story” so maybe travis will come back in the future…………………..
I hope he returns , I liked him very much! Amelia and Michael have a great chemistry together ! He is Hot Hot Hot!
CYA!
Who was he-lol
A ‘possible reconciliation’ for Billy and Victoria??? No Thank You. N-e-x-t……….
No thank you, is right, Jay. With a nuBilly, maybe. But, Jason T is proving to be worse than Burgess for me.
If not Billy Miller, many have suggested John-Paul Lavoisier. I think he would carry the character well. John-Paul does have a sort of the Billy Abbott personality.
Yes, and he is available. Due to bad writing, DAYS has squandered another big name soap talent. Same thing has happened with Jason. It’s a shame, because Jason started out as Billy to immediate accolades, and well deserved ones. but the writing has turned Billy into a dark, sullen, self-entitled jerk. Even when Billy Miller’s Billy screwed up and made mistakes, it was never because he wished to hurt someone. He always had the best of intentions, but they just went awry. You could root for his Billy because he was a human, and the writing for his character always… Read more »
Oh lord please not him. He has no charisma. He puts me to sleep on DOOL. Jason is a great Billy much better than Burgess. Jason has the personality of the historical Billy. Maybe if you quit seeing Billy Miller as the right Billy you would see the great job Justin is doing. JPL is clearly not even close to being Billy Abbott.
@GramS.
You are entitled to your opinion. It does not make it right.
I am to mine. It does not mean I am right. It is the reason we OPINE.
I have no clue if you ever watched OLT! But, John-Paul’s character was very Billy Abbot-like.
Word to the wise: we try not to attack each other on these sites. But, try to respect each others’s opinions.
Enjoy your night.
Can you believe we are thinking Burgess Jenkins???
@Timmm.
I know, Timmmy. Burgess!! Who would have “thunk” it?
I’m with you, Jay! Besides, it’s not really a reconciliation, given that it’s a different actor playing the role of Billy…
Thank You, Brother. Oh…and I hate to say it…but, since I know how I am (lol), I’ll say it, anyway: Ever since Billy Miller ‘jumped ship’ (or whatever) from Y&R to GH, I feel like Victoria (character-wise and all) has ‘lost her way’. Sad. Oh…and BTW, the ‘current Billy’ is starting to BORE ME…and…is behaving like an unlikable, shallow, selfish, self-centered and love ’em-and-leave ’em wanna-be playboy. BEYOND LAME!!!!!!!!!!
Have a good one, Brother.
Hmmmm. True that, James. Hadn’t thought of it that way. But, now I see the light…LOL. However, I never felt the connection between Amelia and Jason. And, Jaybird is on the same wave as mine, as far as nuBilly is concerned. I just cannot give him more than a glance; especially his runs with Phyllis. As I said, not Jason’s fault. Historically ( as was suggested Jason’s portrayal of Billy is), this is not Billy Abbott. Billy was a free spirit who captivated the viewers…stole our collective hearts and held on to them in his palm. I honestly expected an… Read more »
Balls of fire—I don’t want to see a Billy and Victoria redux—that ship sailed a long time ago as far as I’m concerned.
I hope! I hated him with Victoria and he was an average, at best, actor in my opinion! To me, JFP hired him because he looked like Billy Miller! When Miller’s sleepy time at GH is over, quit freaking around and hire him back. Thompson can move back to GH and bring Robin and Emma back where they belong, to Port Charles!
Totally agree with everything you’ve said. These two actors were much better in their original roles. Can’t put my finger on exactly what the problems are but it’s too much of a coincidence that both were so good before switching shows.
I agree. I was so certain Jason Thompson would make a good, different Billy Abbott but I feel it is a bust! Billy Miller on GH just seems bored!
And you want an actor to lose his job because … ? Billy Miller DOES NOT WANT to return.
No one said that Billy Miller wants to return to Y& R. I think, those of us who pine for him, have resigned ourselves to the fact he is NOT coming back. As Dylan said, and I actually said something similar days ago, Billy Miller had that “Je e ne sais quoi”, inexplicable factor, which compelled us to forgive him everything. I want to smack some sense into this Billy…..not his fault….but, the writers’. Jason T has turned Billy Abbott into an annoying, and recalcitrant little pest. I was never a fan of Jason T, but I remember voicing my… Read more »
AMEN!!!!!!
First of all I dont want ANYONE to loose their job! Secondly Jeanne, you are Billy Miller’s agent?
100% agree
What makes you think Billy Miller wants to go back to Y&R, or that Jason Thompson would be interested in playing Dr. Dull again? Easy for us fans to want the actors to stay in the same roles forever, but at the end of the day it’s up to the actors themselves!
I agree. I am a poster here with wishes. They dont make my career decisions and I wont criticize what they do for them and their families. I post here to hope as a fan. Either way, I tune in and get through what I dont like.
no real interest in travis/ vicki…. she was supposed to ‘ let her hair down’ … but it was tame at best… wld ve been funner to see vic really hit rock bottom, join her dad in misery … end of her career, her marriage and really go for broke…. instead we got her falling for a bartender at a hillbilly boozecan after watching lauralee and michelle staffords interview as old cricket / phyllis classic days i really think y n r s exhausted the newmans and abbotts… yes they re quintessentail y n r but a lil break would… Read more »
I agree with you Damin. I still say that Jill needs to come back on a permanent basis. She is connected to so many people. They could finally have Lauren do more than have dinner at the club with her husband and be his sounding board about his cases. They could bring Colin back with Jill as well. This way Cane and Lily could focus on things other than how much Hilary is ruining their lives. I always thought Stitdh was useless. Let him stay wherever he is now with his son and nurse him back to health. I am… Read more »
The whole story line s*cked…NEW writers please
0ohh geez, hmmm well-
I won’t miss him, hardly knew he was there.
Travis didn’t do anything he was just there like a chair, just there …
Feel bad that Michael Roark lost a job/income. That’s nasty .
Hey, su.
Perhaps Roark was hired as a transient actor to see if a new relationship for Victoria would pan out. He served his purpose. We now are aware that Victoria is a responsible person, mother and professional….that she would not just up and leave.
I never caught on to Roark…too fast, too soon.
I HOPE HIS TEASING AT THE END OF HIS SENTENCE WILL MEAN HE WILL BE BACK ,DON’T WANT VIKI AND BILLY TOGETHER ,THAT WOULD BE ESPECIALLY IF MILLER RETURNED ,JASON IS THE FIRST BILLY I’VE LIKED AND I SURE LIKE TRAVIS.WITH TORI .
After yesterday’s ep, I figured Travis was gone. It seemed like Victoria and Billy were going to reconnect.
Another lame-duck Chuck Pratt-created character goes away – ADIOS!!!
Now if only someone will show Pratt the EXIT door….!!!!
I really enjoyed him I’m so bored with Billy & Victoria. He’s a great actor.
Hope he comes back. For now I’ll get to watch him on Beauty & The Beast
STUPID! They get someone we like & let them go! I guess too many complaining about Billy & Phyllis! So they will put them back together! Boring!
I was loving Tricky!!
LOVED him. Sad to see him go.
MIchael Roark reminded me of Amelia Heinle’s real life husband. They have a similar look. I started to warm up to him as Travis and Victoria needs a good man. I love Victoria and Billy but Billy ALWAYS treats Victoria horribly. They are great as friends, excellent as parents and better off away from each other. I don’t think Billy and Phyllis are a good couple. They feed each other’s worst character traits. I think Jason Thompson is the best replacement for Billy Abbott yet. Billy Miller is the cream of the crop in every way but after David Tom… Read more »
He is the perfect match for her. Bring him back.
He was one of the few bright spots on what has become a dismal show.
I agree Mike and all everyone can talk about is Billy Miller & Jason. WOW! Travis had great chemistry with Victoria. Please unless you bring back Billy Miller don’t put Victoria back with this Billy. Jason T. is a great actor but just not with Victoria. While your at it please let that crazy Chloe get normal and let her get over this damn story of Delia. Enough already!
Why is it every time we get someone we like, we lose them. He had great chemistry with Victoria and he wasn’t hard on the eyes either. Dam we like someone there gone, we hate someone we get the twit every day.
Billy Miller and J0ason Thompson are both outstanding actors. Give it time people.
I agree with Jason but Billy Miller has been on GH for almost TWO years and he has had not ONE memorable scene! I know, the writers, the writers BUT he looks bored!
Then what was the purpose of Travis other than for Victoria to get laid?
Oh, Linda you crack me up. Can’t be more specific than that. LOL.
I agree. I said the same thing, in a different way, above.
It was all about both Victoria and Billy having their fling, but always returning to the roost.
Hope the story does not go that way: 1) Billy is reliving his teen years–is too far gone building sand castles with “I-can-explain-with-a-good-lie” Phyllis. And, 2) Jason and Amelia are as good as oil and water: they do not mix.
But, they will be thrown together, anyway.
I don’t care one way or the other my complaint is the lousy treatment of Tracey Bregman and Christian LeBlanc (Lauren/Michael Baldwin) barely on together and one of the most stable lovimng exciting couples in YR but Pratt has virtually desimated Michaels family and left them without a story for over a year and the story that was started that would have been a blockbuster with their acting abilities was Michael’s Cancer story but this fool writer had no idea how to write a real story so he screwed it up so badly and it really could have been a… Read more »
I really liked him! Sorry to see him go.
Nothing to miss, their story line was lame. The Victoria character made to look frivolous and vapid.
I think when Victoria finds out about Billy’s fling with his sister-in-law it will be awhile before she takes him back because the Billy she knew would not have done this to his brother.
The only thing that could make this character remotely interesting is if we found he was hired by Victor to distract Vicky from Billy Boy, otherwise he is right up there with those characters that were there, but really can’t remember then– does Sam the vet ring any bells?
MY/Travis & AH/Victoria never clicked. He’s 10 years younger than her and it was painfully obvious!
In fact, AH hasn’t ever clicked with anyone but Billy Miller as long as I’ve been watching the show. Seems to me she’s the problem!
Michael Roarke was the best thing to happen to the Y&R in a very long time. Best looking character & there could have been so much fun with his character. Much like Paul when he was younger. So boring now with same old story lines like Chloe back, Chelsea moaning about Adam. Never any closures & new beginnings. That’s what you gave us with the Travis story.Even my favourite Victor has become a bore. Hope you shake things up soon. So many of your die hard fans losing interest in the show!!

Karla Mosley Temporarily Replaces Mishael Morgan on The Young and the Restless
Soap favorite Karla Mosley (Ex-Maya, B&B and Christina, GL) has stepped in for Mishael Morgan and will air on upcoming episodes of The Young and the Restless in the role of Amanda Sinclair.
As has been previously reported and brought to light by Morgan herself, she recently suffered an eye injury and had to undergo surgery.
In a joint statement, Y&R’s EP’s Anthony Morina and EP and co-head writer, Josh Griffith said of the temporary swap: “We’re grateful that Karla Mosley, a seasoned actor and consummate professional, was able to step in to the role of Amanda during Mishael Morgan’s temporary absence. Mishael is a valuable member of the Y&R family and will be back on air soon to continue her journey as Amanda.”
Mosley spoke exclusively with Soap Opera Digest where she shared she spoke to Morgan before taking on the role: “It was great that I could talk with her and say thank you for leaving me such a wonderful path to follow. I also told her, ‘I’ll be happy when you’re healed and able to return.’”

In return, Mishael took to Twitter and said of Karla: “I am so grateful this beautiful and talented woman stepped in for me on such short notice and allowed me time to heal. I can’t wait to be back, but It comforts me to know that Amanda is in such great hands.”
Look for Karla to hit Genoa City on the upcoming April 26th episode of the CBS daytime drama series.
So what do you think of Karla Mosley taking on the role of Amanda Sinclair? And we wish Mishael a speedy recovery! Comment below.

With its upcoming sixth season scheduled to be its last, no word yet if the two episodes that were not filmed, will end up there or be scratched.
So what did you think of last night’s This Is Us? Disappointed this season will be shorter than expected? Comment below.
