Mishael Morgan Makes a Return to The Young and the Restless

Just in time for the show’s 50th anniversary, Daytime Emmy winner, Mishael Morgan (Amanda Sinclair) is making another return to The Young and the Restless beginning next week.

Morgan had previously gone off contract with the iconic soap to pursue other acting and career opportunities, and fans have already seen her on primetime in recent months.

So, what brings her character of Amanda Sinclair back to Genoa City after she left last time following catching Devon (Bryton James) and Abby (Melissa Ordway) in a heavy make-out session on Devon’s couch? Well, Amanda is going to represent Lily (Christel Khalil) in court against Devon in their sibling battle over Chancellor-Winters.  Now, that could be juicy!

In the latest issue of Soap Opera Digest on newsstands now, Morgan shared: “I realized right after I had gone off contract that the 50th was coming up and I was like, ‘Oh, shoot’.  But then I remembered that Amanda is still alive and it all worked out that I could be here for this iconic period.”

Morgan had posted a photo of herself on Instagram just outside CBS Television City where Y&R tapes four weeks ago and expressed: “So nice to be back, for a few days. I really missed you Genoa city!”

Looking forward to seeing Mishael back for a few episodes of Y&R? Do you want Amanda to help Lily win her case against Devon? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.

I like Ms. Morgan. Very much. Sadly, Amanda St. Clair is a bore. The family storyline lacked drive and suspense and no one mattered enough to be integrated into the canvas, not even the sassy half-sister. Amanda and Devin are a snooze. I had thought we would get a new generation version of the days of Neil, Drusilla, Malcolm, and Olivia. Guess not. What is Amanda and Christine and Michael form a law firm and we get a little mystery action a la Edge of Night.

I loved seeing her with Devon although her face is the same and name is different I hated that they killed off her twin sister! We’ve seen it a thousand times where characters didn’t really die and I’d love nothing more than to see the “real version of her returning” even if to say she disappeared when she was suppose to have died in car wreck to find what she wanted in life and losing the baby made her go into deep depression so she faked death and studied to get law degree then returned the first time because she had to be close to Devon then things happened and Devon will realize WHY the attraction was there because it was Hilary the whole time! Devon deserves that happiness back and I hope they sleep together while she’s there and she turns up pregnant. Hopefully she slips some how letting the truth out she’s really Hillary and walking in on him seeing him making out on the couch destroyed her. To make it more juicy maybe Phyllis knew all along it had been Hillary, remember she was close with Hillary then BAM look how close she became with Amanda! Shewww that would make a killer story line

Amanda is back as Lilys lawyer. She is going to get her revenge on Devon for cheating on her.

I agree. She’s an amazingly good actress but I’m getting tired of the dramatic exits and returns.

__ 2 thumbs Up !! __

Me too , she’s so pretty

I would like that, accept Thee Victor Newman Sr would have Michael manipulate Christine & Amanda to do his biddings, but that would also be something worth watching, especially when the womenfind out.

She’s beautiful

This is in reply, to LAKOVOS

I miss Neil!

C’mon back Amanda and release your wrath. Devon deserves every bit of it! He should be knocked down a notch or three. He’s beside himself these days. I remember your other side from past episodes with you, Neal & Davon. So, #releaseyourwrath. If you are back for a brief period of time make the IMPACT WORTH WATCHING LIKE I KNOW YOU CAN!

Ajackson,
Oh yeah, come back and repent for all the times you and Devon,made out right in front of your blind husband Neil. You make me sick, what a hipocrite!

Ajackson and others,
Please forgive the terrible goof! I got so carried away thinking about that time that I’d forgotten it was Hillary not Amanda. So glad no one noticed my post.

I like Mishael Morgan too, and I hated that they killed off Hilary. I grew to love the character – MM is an excellent actress. But the role of Amanda never gave her a chance to show her talent. Also pairing her with Devon may have been an attempt to re-create the Hilary/Devon pairing – if that was the goal it fell flat and a stupid idea anyway. While happy for her in winning the Best Actress Emmy, I would go so far as to say it also puzzled me because I felt that this role was not worthy. Her best scene was probably when she caught Devon and Abby.

I liked her with Devon better than Devon with Abby. I really liked Amanda and I don’t like Nate he is going to hurt elana and he does not need to be with Victoria. Bad casting.

I liked Nate when he first came on, but now he can’t seem to keep his zipper zipped and I think him and Victoria deserve each other and daddy dearest needs to take her toys away from her and kick her out of the sandbox.

I Agree

Yes, I want her to win the case

No I don’t want her to win the case Hamilton Winters belongs to Devon

That’s right I agree 100%..Lilly should know better!!

I don’t want Lily to win, she thinks just because Jill put her in charge somehow that the company belongs to her, so I want Devon to win HamiltonWinters back it belongs to him and only him. And I don’t care for the whole Devon/Abby thing they got going on.

And I want Nick and Sally together, let Adam go after Chelsea. Nick deserves to finally get the girl he deserves and wants. Summer needs to get her nose out of her daddy’s life and tend to her own marriage.

I TOTALLY AGREE

I agree with you about Lilly, but Nick need to stop sleeping with Adams women, and go find his own. Also why do he feel he feel the need to take all if Adams kid’s

Joy,
First of all you don’t know what the hell you’re talking about. I don’t see a sign around Sally’s neck that says property of Adam Newman and seeing as how she slept with both men, played one against the other, Adam just happened to be this baby’s father. Do you know that Christain, is also Adam’s son because he had sex with Nick’s wife and after she died there was a long fight with Victor trying to take the baby away from Nick. Adam agreed to let him raise the boy as his own but he’ll try one of these days to get him back, I’m sure. Adam is self centered and wants everything his brother and sister have, doesn’t want to share.

I So Agree With Your Response… Totally!

Peggy
I agree with you entirely. I’m not liking Devon and Abby but that has nothing to do with Devon wanting to maintain his family business.I think Lily is doing the wrong thing helping Jill try to take it away from him. Also, has everyone forgotten the part Amanda played when she and Devon fell in love when she was married to Neil and she and Devon cheated and made out right in front of him when he was Blind. Sorry, she’s not a little miss goody two shoes.

I Agree

I agree with you, give Devon his company back.

I agree. Hamilton Winters belongs to Devon. He did not sign up for making his company a public entity, which could put it at risk for a take over. Hopefully he will win his case. Lili may come to wish she had never pursued taking her company public and could lose everything in the process.

Sandra D.,
I don’t quite understand all the business aspects and honestly if everything hits the fan because Victor has payed Jill off so he can have Devons part for Adam, I’m wondering how much Lily has invested on her own or is it all Chancelor money?

No I don’t want her to win the case.

I don’t.

Devin was pressured into to merging, he was skeptical from the beginning, he is not a greedy person and money was not his first concern, fools rush in where wise men fear to tread, impulsive people beware !

Mishael Morgan / Hilliary was a powerful character that had my full attention when she was on my screen..
Hillary was the #1 character an awesome character..

It was a huge mistake to create Amanda Sinclair-
that character was an empty boring character that should have never been..
And– for Mishael Morgan having to portray a dull lackluster character after her powerful performance as Hilliary was a total slap to her..
imo

I miss Mishael and Amanda. I hope she comes back and mops the floor with Devon!

Her coming or going is okay with me. I just think that Lily and Jess needs to lose this battle.

I hope Amanda comes back and turn the table on lily.

No l don’t want Lily to win

Yes, I want lily to win

I’m so tired of characters leaving and returning. Please writers of Y&R get a new writing staff and move on!

Yes i wish she could calll me

It so sad about Devon @ Lily

No, I think Lily is wrong and Devon should have his company back, Lily is shady to ask Amanda to help, if she love her brother as she says why is she throwing salt in his wound? disappointed in the Lily we knew…

MM is a good actress but her character was a snooze fest. Her whole sl was so boring. I don’t want her to come back just to get between Lilly and Devon.

I miss Amanda’s character on the show very much. Mishael Morgan is a tremendously talented young lady. Wish she was back permanently.

I AGREE

No I don’t want her to win the case and Lilly should sit down somewhere because if it wasn’t for her kept pressuring Devon in the first place trying to impress Billy and Jill they wldn’t be in this mess. She didn’t think of she might not be with Billy forever she was just caught up in the feelings and living for the moment didn’t think about the what if it doesn’t work out..bad choice Lilly so disappointed how you’re treating devon.

I would like for them to come to some sort of agreement. Two siblings who have been through so much need to get through this. Let Devon run McCall. It can be a great success.

No I don’t think Lily should get Devon’s company. He’s been running a company from the beginning now. She’s gonna come along and take everything from him I don’t think so

I don’t want Jill or Lily to win, because it belongs to Neal and Devon and he was only trying to do something with his Sister Lily as far as Family. Also why does Jill want it to go Public??

WHEN ARE THE WRITERS GOING TO INCORPORATE MOSES INTO THIS BUSINESS CORPORATION SINCE NEITHER LILY NOR DEVON ARE NEIL’S CHILDREN MOSES IS NEIL’S ONLY BIOLOGICAL CHILD AND HE OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE SOME SAY ABOUT HIS FATHER’S BUSINESS ..BESIDES HOW MANY BUSINESSES DOES DEVON NEED SINCE MS.CHANCELOR LEFT HIM HER MONEY..

I don’t agree with Lilly. I think she should lose. That’s Devon company. I don’t like Lilly acting hard ball. Amanda would want revenge on Devon but I hope she loses. She can’t last on the show after the trial, who is there for her to pair up with ?

No I hope Lilly does not win. She is being so selfish. She didn’t build Hamilton winters her brother did. Y&R has really taken this to a bad level. I hope Devon wins

Devon already has his way out even without court. Thanks to Ashley, he has a new journey about to take place. Even though it is not going to be a Newman purchase

no Devon should be able to keep his company. Lily is only an employee of Chancelor so she doesn’t understand what his company means to him. Amanda’s personal feelings for Devon shouldn’t come into the courtroom. But this is the Young and the Restless.

What happened to the family of Amanda? Did everyone just die? And why don’t you bring Moses back on did he breakup with Faith. Are they not on show?

Oh no I didn’t like her can’t u ppl find other actors everyone has slept with everyone. Get a better story going.

Lily should win lily’s case…

Is FBI Agent John “Jagger” Cates on the Level? GH’s Finola Hughes, Steve Burton and Bradford Anderson Weigh-in

When John “Jagger” Cates resurfaced on General Hospital in recent months in the form of Adam J. Harrington taking over the role originally played Antonio Sabato Jr,. know one knew quite sure just what side of the law is Cates really on? And, is he back in Port Charles to settle old scores with Sonny and Jason?

What viewers have learned is that when Jason (Steve Burron) was taken captive two and half years ago, back in November of 2021, he was taken to Quantico, where Agent Cates had multiple RICO violations on Jason and was going to send him to prison for years, unless he worked for Cates and his team, in which Jason has been an informant working on the inside on the Pikeman arms deal case, or so it appears.

Now on the latest episode of Steve Burton and Bradford Anderson’s Daily Drama podcast, Finola Hughes (Anna) stopped by to chat with her GH co-stars and all three weighed-in on just what they think maybe going on with John Cates.

Bradford Anderson, brought up that maybe Agent Cates isn’t working on the level. Hughes responded, “I don’t know, I’m not sure.” Burton added, “Yeah, we’re not sure. There’s some unknowns coming,, so we’ll figure that out. But, it’s been a fun story to play for sure. I really like it. A lot of layers to it. I’s been excellent stuff to be back with for sure.”

Finola added, “I think we’re gonna be going through finding out who certain people are that are coming on canvas, like John Cates and Brennan and where do they all fit in?”

Steve added, “You’ve got Pikeman and what their real motives are. “Jagger” obviously. And then . Pikeman is not facing on screen. Is that true or no?  The question of is Pikeman a person also got brought by Anderson, to which his co-stars added, it’s a company.

Courtesy/ABC

Explaining more about Brennan and what he was up to, was answered by Hughes, That’s a sort of throwback, perhaps back in the day at WSB. He just came on the canvas briefly. Nobody knows if he’s goo (or bad).  I (Anna) got him put in prison, so he’s off, and out of the way right now.”

Now let us know, who do you think John “Jagger” Cates is working for? FBI, Pikeman, himself, or some other unknown entity or enemy? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

Nancy Lee Grahn’s Star-Studded ALS Fundraiser Reveals “I’ll Be There” Video Featuring Soap Opera Notables

Talk about your impressive line-up! It’s a soap fans dream and for a great cause. General Hospital’s Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis) is prepping her one-night only ALS fundraiser which will feature many of her friends and co-stars.

The benefit is set for May 4th in Glendale, California. Slated to participate are Genie Francis, Jane Elliot, Peter Bergman, Maurice Benard, Eileen Davidson, Thorsten Kaye, Michelle Stafford, Stephen Nichols, Rena Sofer, Jason Thompson, Kelly Monaco, Melissa Claire Egan, Maura West, Kristina Wagner, Gregory Harrison, Trevor St. John, Kate Mansi, Kirsten Storms, Cynthia Watros, and many others.

On Wednesday, Grahn took to her social media and released an “I’ll be there” video shout-out featuring, Monaco, Elliot, Bergman, Bernard, West, Harrison, St. John and more. In a touching and important moment in the new video, Michelle Strogny, who is battling ALS, is featured.

Previously, in speaking with Soap Opera Digest on the impetus of the event, Grahn recalled, “I was actually doing Zoom events during Covid and I met this woman that I just fell in love with, Michelle Strojny. At the time, Michelle had been living with ALS for four years. Now, it’s five years. She is a mom of a teenage son, she has the most wonderful husband, and she has been dealing with this [disease] for quite a while. And obviously, there isn’t a cure yet. It’s not survivable yet. But as she says, it’s not incurable. Nothing is; it’s underfunded. But anyway, I just really dug this woman. She is so grounded and filled with grace, and she spends all of her time working to raise money for the cause. We did a fundraiser for her last year and then I thought, ‘You know what? The soaps don’t ever get together to do something for charity.’ Collectively, we have this amazing community and we don’t collectively use it for a good cause, and I think it’s such an easy thing for us to do and we could potentially really make a difference.”

As GH viewers know, Gregory Harrison is playing the character of Gregory Chase, who is also battling ALS in a touching storyline that is currently playing out shedding a light on this disease.
