Hell Hath No Fury Like A Sightseeing Neil Winters On The Young and the Restless!

Nothing like being trapped up in the air on a plane that is about to crash, to set up some major drama on CBS number one daytime drama series, The Young and the Restless!
At the epicenter is the fact that Neil Winters (Kristoff St. John) has all those who wronged him, lied to him, and covered it up on board the plane with him! Remember, they are all going on a jaunt to Chicago on the private Chancellor Industries Jet!
In a pivotal moment after setting up Devon (Bryton James), Hilary (Mishael Morgan), and Cane (Daniel Goddard), Neil goes to pour himself a drink! In addition, Colin (Tristan Rogers) and Jill (Jess Walton) are on board the flight as all the major fallout is about to go down!
Lily screams, “No dad! That’s alcohol!” Neil takes the drink and reads the label out loud! Yes, folks! Neil can see. He then shoots daggers at Hilary and Devon! Cane knows that all hell is about to break loose! At the end of Friday’s episode, Neil proclaims, “I can see. I can see everything!”
Watch the Friday cliffhanger after the jump! Let us know if you hope Neil will have time to tell of Hilary and Devon for their affair and everyone else, before the plane crashes on next week’s exciting episodes of Y&R!

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

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 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.

It was an exciting scene, I can not wait for Monday’s episode!! Mr. St John is rocking it!! I can not wait to see what happens next. If I were Hilary, Devon, Cane or Colin, I would watch out and look for a parachute! Neil is out for blood!
AW, HELL TO THE YEAH Neil is out for blood!!!!! And I hope that the blood turns into an ENDLESS DOWNPOUR!!!!! I mean…
1. More and more, Devon is THE WORST EXCUSE for a son E-V-E-R!!!!! STUPIDLY LOVESICK MORON!!!!!
2. As a so-called wife, Hilary is nothing but a SPINELESS SKANK!!!!!
3. At this point, Cane is nothing but a wimpy and weak-filled enabler…and a C-O-W-A-R-D!!!!! ANOTHER MORON!!!!!
4. As for Colin, he is BEYOND AN EMBARRASSMENT as a husband and as a grandfather!!!!! BLACKMAILING LEECH!!!!!
5. Most of all, I feel so sorry for B-O-T-H Lily and (ESPECIALLY!!!!!) Jill…meaning…they’re the ones that are married to such CHUMPS AND CLOWNS a la Cane and Colin!!!!!
6. Most of all Part 2, I hope that Neil gets LOTS AND LOTS OF R-E-V-E-N-G-E on Devon, Hilary, Cane a-n-d that BLACKMAILING SCUMBAG Colin!!!!!
7. BOTTOM LINE HERE: LET THE FIREWORKS B-E-G-I-N!!!!!
Have a good one, Denise. Peace.
Tell us how you REALLY feel jaybird369!
But I agree 100% with everything you said. “Hevon” are disgusting!
Jay, that was perfect!
Okay well its time to be done with some characters. Chelsea doesn’t belong with Adam. They never had love trust or chemistry. Neil has to stop being with people who are young and who are not Drucilla.
Love Jaybird’s post!
I really liked how Neil put the high ball glass to the light to check for spots!
Emotionally charged scene. But hopefully after the dust settles, Neil will realize that He has some culpability due to his insta forgiveness where he disregarded his daughter/family. Lily should also recall that her dad and brother could have cared less about HilAnn’s actions toward her and for once, put herself first and let these two men? fend for themselves..
A little rushed, I had hoped Neil would doing some more ‘spying’ for a bit longer, but I love where this is going!! I would love them to ‘kill off’ all the snoozers, most of which are on this flight! Neil survives and gets away with it, somehow. They could crash into the Abbott Cabin in the Woods, and take out of few of the snoozers there, too! WIn/Win! Feel bad for the pilots/ crew, hope they survive as well. This could turn out awesome if they did it up right!!
LOL, I was wishing the same thing about the plane crashing the Abbott cabin and taking out a slew of the snoozers!
I have never liked Neil Winters (Kristoff St. John) he was always a big snore..
Now that Pratt is getting him drunk and crazy, I just might get like the guy.. lol
ohh no not get like him but get to like him..
oops dropped the important ”to”
Get rid of Victor and Chelsea
Ha! Sue, I like that comment of yours. I do agree
(I too hoped Neil would do more spying!) Ive seen Mondays great episode and it gets better and better… more intrigue and mystery (in all storylines!). Mondays show has even better cliffhangers than Fridays did! I cant remember which episode, but my favorite line was Jill saying Bang the Billionaire.. cracked me up so much. Well written, well acted.. especially Kristoff! #EmmyWorthy Been waiting a long time for meaty stuff like this for him.
Ive seen Mondays too, and cant wait for Tuesdays…
I feel bad for Cane. He was in an impossible position and this is going to hurt him way more than it should.
How can you possibly feel sorry for that spineless Cane? He and Lily are a couple I’d love to get rid of.
Hahaha I would too. I just feel bad because he’s going to get the Lily guilt trip. I don’t want to watch it.
It really is unfolding beautifully. St. John really does have the acting chops. I did not know it.
He is not ready to play Othello. Great stuff, Y&R! Keep up the good work.
Yes Harry, I agree. I never cared for Neil but since he lost his site he gained my interest.
I am glad that Neil is about to blow up
at Hilary and Devon. Dragging out the
pretense of his blindness would have
meant too much more of the same monotony
in my opinion of Hilary repeating the same
old sentiments in every scene – Oh, Devon, we must
stop! Oh, this is wrong! Blah, blah, blah.
Thank God that will be over!
Next week will rock, I am sure, with the Winters family.
But hoping no one gets hurt in that plane, though!
I think with time Neil will figure out he rushed into a relationship with Hillary for all the wrong reasons. I do not think Devon or Hillary deserve a quick forgiveness, especially Devon, the Winters took him in as a son when they could have left him to child services, he.deserves to suffer for a long time before he can earn back forgiveness.
bring back aunt liv and leslie to help neil get over his broken heart and sobriety! liv can maybe rejoin memoril and have an affair with leslie s doctor husband setting up a quandrangle with liv/ ben/ leslie/ neil!!
and with leslie back bring tyler too to support lily from her constant lying husband cane!
want lily to freak on hilary and cane!!
It would be a blessing in disguise for Cane to lose [S] Lilly!
My heart goes out to Neil. He’s hurt people too (Karen), but no one deserves this. Devon is the most ungrateful bastard I’ve seen in a long time. That man took him in off the streets, and this is how he repays him. Hilary is someone I’ve never like. She’s slimy, and pretty much worthless. And Cane…unbelievable. The secrets and lies just never cease with him, do they? Well, something tells me those three are going to happy that plane crash came when it did.
Kathrine is spinning in her grave giving that little punk all that money!
Dumbest plot point ever. And ‘punk’ is right.
I cannot believe I’m typing this but Neil rocks! What the? No, seriously when Lilly turned to her father and told her dad he was picking up a bottle of scotch by mistake and he went on to read the label, priceless! He is going to unleash hell and then the plane will crash and not only do you have to survive the crash, you have to survive the wrath of Neil Winters. I love it!
this may be worlds apart, or not
turnabout is fair play and all the more bent
Kristoff St. John : Neil : Y&R
Tyler Christopher : Nikolas : GH
“bring it ON”
to be the fair, upstanding, heroic, understanding, dutiful… blah blah blech
Neil menacing leer… and biting diatribe at fellow passengers was , for him… watch… “it’s about danged time”
Nikolas, (GH) is once again, just the turn GH production had better mine…. he’s too good in his current mindset… if they don’t have him going over the deep end.. he’d man up with edge sexy and play for the win… at what cost
men
aren’t they sexy
ps: I coulda swore both actors actually looked like they imbibed and were spirited to the gills : campy refresh… LOL – Nikki and Jill pull asunder
Love the title of this article, Michael! 🙂
