Joshua Morrow (Nick) apparently took it upon himself to welcome The Young and the Restless’ newest cast member, soap favorite Steve Burton (Dylan) with a studio tour to show Burton the ropes at CBS!
Unfortunately for Burton, Morrow had his own special tour planned! In it, Morrow introduces Steve to his small storage closet of a dressing room, makes him walk up flights of stairs to the wardrobe department, illustrates to Steve how he does not have his car parking spot and dressing room next to each other like he, Morrow does, and reveals this is something Steve could work towards and much more! Jessica Collins (Avery) also makes a cameo appearance!
We have got to tell you Joshua had us laughing out loud, as he initiated Burton into the Genoa City family of actors! Watch the studio tour after the jump and let us know what you thought of it!

Brooklyn Rae Silzer Making A Return To General Hospital
As General Hospital continues to surprise its viewers with some notables from the show’s history, look for another fan favorite, Brooklyn Rae Silzer (Emma) to make her way back to Port Charles for an appearance coming up next month.
Excited to finally be able to announce she will reappear on GH, Silzer tweeted: “Dreams come true! Thank you so much @GeneralHospital @valentinifrank for having me back!”
Emma Scorpio Drake’s return is scheduled for Thursday, February 6th, but due to coverage of the President Donald Trump impeachment trial and current episodes being pushed back, this date may change.
The last time viewers saw Emma was back in 2018, when she came to town to visit her grandmother, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) for Christmas.

Hallmark Channel Chief Bill Abbott Exits In Aftermath Of Same-Sex Ad Controversy
Looks like there is still fallout from the Hallmark Channel pulling several ads from wedding planner, Zola that centered on a same-sex lesbian couple kissing at their wedding.
Now, Bill Abbott, who has been Crown Media Family Networks president and CEO for the last 11 years, is exiting the company. The announcement was made today by Mike Perry, president and CEO of Hallmark Cards Inc.
No successor has been named. “I have tremendous confidence in the Crown Media management team and, with this team in place, I will begin a search for Bill’s replacement,” Perry said. “I want to thank Bill for his many years of success and contributions to Crown Media and wish him continued success.”
Prior to the firestorm against the cable outlet for pulling the Zola ads, (after conservative group One Million Moms petitioned to have the ads removed) and the network complied, the company was doing well.
Abbott presided over a period of growth and visibility for Hallmark including: Christmas programming and regular opportunities for seasoned A-list stars that in return attracted viewers and ratings. Bill Abbott’s exit is the latest result of Hallmark’s efforts to quickly turn the page on the bad PR.
Deadline reported that according to people familiar with the internal discussions, many people at the network expressed their preference for restoring the ad quickly, while Abbott went against their wishes and kept it off the air.
So, what do you think of Abbott stepping-down and Hallmark parting ways with him? Do you enjoy Hallmark Channel programming or find its fare and formula not diverse and inclusive enough? Comment below.

Judith Light To Receive Prestigious Honor At GLAAD Media Awards In New York
Another wonderful acknowledgement is coming its way to two-time Daytime Emmy and Tony winning actress, Judith Light (Ex-Karen, OLTL).
News on Wednesday has that Light will be honored at the upcoming 31st annual GLAAD Media Awards in New York City with the Excellence in Media Award in a ceremony hosted by Lilly Singh. The ceremony will take place on Thursday, March 19th.
According to Deadline, who broke the news, the Excellence in Media Award is presented to media professionals who have made a significant difference in promoting acceptance of LGBTQ people. Light joins previous honorees Ava DuVernay, Robert De Niro, Patti LaBelle, Debra Messing, Tyra Banks, Julianne Moore, Glenn Close, Barbara Walters, Diane Sawyer, among others, who have received this prestigious award from the organization.
“Judith Light stood up for and with LGBTQ people when others in media and entertainment refused to speak up, and she has never left our side,” said GLAAD President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis in a statement “When the GLAAD Media Awards first started and was a small event with little visibility, she was one of the few entertainers who would join us in calling for LGBTQ representation, so it is only fitting to now honor her advocacy on what has become the largest LGBTQ stage in the world. From standing alongside LGBTQ people during the AIDS crisis, to fighting for marriage equality, to now uplifting transgender people and issues, Judith advocates with a unique passion and an unending dedication that uplifts.”
Light was honored with the 2019 Isabelle Stevenson Tony Award for her extensive philanthropy work, especially in fighting to end AIDS and championing LGBTQ and human rights.
Share your congratulations to Judith via the comment section on this honor from GLAAD.

Well there’s 6 minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
Ba ha ha ha ha !
6 minutes of boring boring bs, just to promote steve burton he should have been
loyal to GH where he made his money
Joshua and Steve are so funny when they are around each other. Steve is like what did I sign myself up for lol?
LMAO! Nuff said!
Hilarious!!!! I think Steve is going to fit right in 🙂
and the boot licking begins…
FOJ I was thinking the same thing in the movie Broadcast News Joan Cusacks character says to Ablbert Brooks character you think everyone is a a/kisser. His reply no, only the ones who pucker up their lips and press them to the other one’s buttocks!
Geesh…can’t you people take a joke and enjoy it for what it is?
I had a feeling Steve would end up as part of Joshua’s pranks when Steve said in that clip on The Talk that he wanted to get that scruff off his face and have him lose the sweaters.
Joshua Morrow and Michael Muhney’s antics behind-the-scenes have been so funny that I can only imagine what throwing Steve Burton into the mix will be like. However, I have to say that Joshua needs to come up with some new material because this was quite similar to the one of he and Michael Muhney when Joshua demonstrates how loved he is by the crew and how Michael is not. In any event, it is nice to see them having some fun instead of drama which should be saved for the show.
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!
They have the perfect combination of personalities. I had no doubt these two would become buddies fast. I thought the video was funny.
I found the whole video silly and steve ‘the trader” Burton even sillier.
i agree steve burton should have returned to GH because like all the GH characters that have been ony y&r they always never last
also example: geneive, tucker, just my opinion
phelps sucks, and sb should have been loyal to GH and not kiss up to phelps
cause he has outside projects with her and james franco
just my opinion, will not watch him on y&r and will fast forward when he is on
i wonder how much they paid him, if Y&R is cutting budgets and losing some
viewers why bring him on and cost more money
i am curious what eric braden and peter bergman think
Sarah I do not think you want to know what Eric Braeden and Peter Bergman think!
It was funny, but it was obviously scripted and planned out to promote Steve’s appearance on the 29th. I would have like it better if it had been real gag rather than stage “video” but it was still humorous and it is promoting the product, as I said before I just hope Steve lives up to all the hype CBS is making out of this.
Cute…
Meh….
I won’t be watching him on the Y&R…. He had to leave GH. A lot a fans are very disappointed he left GH.
i agree 100 % and will not watch him as well
Are you kidding! I would watch JUST because I liked Steve on GH, even though I’m already a Y&R viewer. I am a GH viewer too and so he left. Too bad, but at last I can still see him on this soap! It’s TV not real life..people change jobs!
Loved it. Lol
Steve will always be Jaaonro me…He’s for to do a few return shotson G?H? LIke he has amnesia and lives in G.C. Now but please try to connect him between the two shows. Dontwant him,as a ghost!
Can’t believe that Steve left GH for Y&R. Very disappointed. I understood his leaving GH to spend time with his family but to leave for another show…. hmmmm. Never saw that one coming.
I wish he would just go back to General Hospital. I miss him so much in the story line!!
General Hospspita is one of my favorite daytime show on TV. And taking Steve Burton (Jason) out spoil the show, because Jason (Steve Burton) is General Hospital.
I miss him so much in the story line…!!!
Commenting on “Men Behaving Badly” promo.
Reminds me of the GH opening with all the men dressed up.
I do have to say as far as story lately, I like that Cane is flirting with Chelsea. He is finally alive again. I don’t know what it is about Cane with Lily or Lily with Cane, but together, they bore me to tears. With other mates, they excite me.
Cute video but maybe if Avery chooses Nick instead of Dyan, Steve can return to
GH where he is badly needed and missed. Don’t like some of the characters who
have returned or the Vampire storyline.
I am glad to at least still see Steve Burton on a Soap as I do also watch Y and R.
Maybe GH could borrow him for a few shows for 50th Anniversary. It seems Y and R
are supposedly borrowing Eileen Davidson for some scenes with Jack
