Judy Blye Wilson Steps Down As Casting Director Of The Young and the Restless!

22
Mal Young’s first step as EP is the hire a new casting director!
Good! Perhaps, when Justin leaves, they’ll rehire Michael as Adam.
My fingers are crossed so hard they are bleeding!
I hope so too, he was the best Adam and was their best actor.
I hope not, sorry , he was awful, just awful. If Justin leaves which he probably want, but if he does I wished the bring back the the Adam before Michael, he was good.
sad to see her go. she casted a lot of good people at Y&R. recasting Billy and Adam couldn’t of been easy. Y&R needs to hire a good replacement that will bring in good actors
After 30 years, she deserves a break. Congrats.
Judy was a gift. Known her for 30 years. A real class act. Loved actors and fought for them. She will be missed. M
She has quite the record. Reading this news item, I realized Miss Wilson cast shows I watched and followed closely. If Y&R is changing up, casting is not the issue. I like the actors, but not the writing.
While the woman clearly is experienced, look at the history of her employment. She was only with Y&R starting in 2012 (roughly a year after Phelps came to the show) and previously worked on at least one soap where Phelps worked (Another World). I’m wondering if Judy’s leaving is related to Phelps’ exit? The timing is interesting. I know nothing about the guy replacing Phelps but, for once in the past 5-6 years, I’m not cringing about the choice. This guy is a “blank slate” for me. I’m interested in seeing what he’ll do. Phelps came to the show with… Read more »
Yeah if she is one of Jill’s friends then it’s best she’s gone too.
well 4 soaps are “ailing” debris for each show is suspect I haven’t been excited, lately it’s always a rough patch… going on argh! I love DAYS… I want bottom barrel I igive I truly have to think… about each show… and think about coming up with good and… it’s fruitless I swear I adore… this triangle of : GH Kiki/Dillan/Morgan dang it! Morgan will forever more… be the Corinthos TUNE IN I’m telling you the honest truth… I never really thought about Dillan… until he started his job @Crimson then he met Kiki… all hell break loose this is… Read more »
I said… Ava son
triangle… Ava daughter / CARLY son / any quarterMAINe
MEANT Carly son
My main point was
Ryan Quan… who starts features and full time… on the REEL
before and after Olympic
it pains me… as posted… it’s been dire mode
I hang in
Please go to “DOOL” and help the teen scene.
No kidding!
Good first move. Her time at YR has mostly been lackluster and there have been some big duds. Mal Young needs to do more to right the ship!
I celebrate the departure of anyone brought on board by Jill Farren Phelps! Best of luck Judy.
I would love to read… who she all hired on AMC… 1995-2011.
always admit… AMC… was my first real soap
Weren’t those some pretty strong years with the discoveries of Josh Duhamel, Cameron Mathison, Rebecca Budig, Alicia Minshew, Kelly Ripa, Mark Consuelos & Eden Riegel? If she did the casting during that era, she had some real finds IMO.
This is not Amc this is bells soap
Read Patrick’s comment & the article. Ms. Wilson spent most of her career @ AMC from 1995-2011. She was only @ Y&R for 4 years.
