While the cast of One Life to Live is on hiatus, and waiting to see if they will soon be back into production, pending the resolution of the lawsuit with ABC, as Prospect Park told the L.A Times recently, the actors are beginning to lock down new and exciting roles and projects!
Amber Skye Noyes who came on to the Llanview scene in season one of the reboot as the mysterious “Michelle” and a spoiler in Matthew’s potential relationships with Dani or Destiny, has landed a prime time gig!
According to Deadline.com today, “Amber has been booked for a three-episode arc on the CW drama Beauty And The Beast with an option to become a regular. She will play Tori, an innocent daughter of a powerful beast who is rescued by Cat (Kristin Kreuk) and Vincent (Jay Ryan) and then taken under their wing, where Tori will make some shocking discoveries about her life.”
Upon the news item being released, Noyes to took to her Twitter account where she related to her followers: “Excited to announce I’ll be playing Tori on CW’s #beautyandthebeast next season! Thank u for the warm welcome! @BatBWriters #BeastFANmily”
One Life to Live’s executive producer, Jennifer Pepperman also related her enthusiasm for Amber’s primetime gig, stating via Twitter, “Congrats! I am so excited for you! Awesome!”
So what do you think of Amber getting a primo part with the possibility of becoming series regular on Beauty And The Beast? Do you think soon other One Life to Live stars will be popping up in primetime, while they await the fate of the online reboot of the series? Comment below!
good for her. she has a new job. the rest of the cast on one life to live will move on. one life to live will not be back. lets face it. its over. i want kassie depaiva on young and the restless as the new isabella. that would work for me. tuc watkins can go to general hospital in a new role.
Tuc could play Spinnelis daddy!!!
One Lifes finale, last scene: Natalie arrives to her apartment and makes a shocking discovery-the babysister is found stabbed to death and Liam is missing! Cut to street scene: a blonde woman walking down the street with a small child by her side. The woman is singing: ‘Hush little baby dont say a word’ ect. The woman suddenly turns to face the camera, and she smiles wickedly at the audience…its Allison Perkins, and the child with her is Liam!!! She resumes walking with him and continues singing. The end of first season! Fade to black! Season two: the return of John Mcbain in search of his missing son!!!
Wouldn’t that be great! So much story we could all see. Her is hoping it returns
I’m thinking you’re right….it’s been a fool’s game on Fans.
I do expect to see more of the cast taking other roles. Putting a halt to the show due to the lawsuit is not in the best interest of the show. More importantly, it’s definitely not in the best interest of the fans.
I agree. I predicted this would happen. The hiatus is not a smart idea. The actors need a paycheck. They are not going to just sit home waiting for OLTL to return. Once the show finally returns, they might have to get a whole new cast because many of the original cast members might be attached to other projects.
From day 1 PP gave all the cast the freedom to pressure other projects while under contract with them…
You will see others branching out if even for an episode on other shows if the opportunity comes their way..
Their online contracts are not like network tv soap contracts..
I was aware that they are allowed to pursue other projects. The issue is how long will the lawsuit take? PP is going head to head with Disney who can afford to make this difficult if they chose to by using legal tactics to delay a quick resolution to this lawsuit. Disney probably won’t though, but they could. Meanwhile, the cast members need to be paid and might sign on to long-term projects that would prevent them from taping when OLTL returns. I can’t see PP preventing them from landing long-term jobs on other soaps and TV shows when OLTL isn’t even taping. They need stable jobs.
Good for Amber. Nothing against her, but I really didn’t like her character and wouldn’t mind if she wasn’t back, should OLTL return.
That being said, I read an article that reminded me that all pioneers of different mediums fell flat on their faces when they started and those who followed learned form their mistakes and succeeded. Could PP be considered Pioneers in web-based soap operas? I wonder because I think, while some aspects of what they’re doing are different, many are the same as those who have come even before them. People like Crystal Chappell (who’s shooting a bazillion on-line shows), Van Hansis and Martha Burns, with shows like EMPIRE, GOTHAM and EASTENDERS, to name a few, have been hitting their marks.
So I want be patient and hope for the best. I find this halting production of OLTL because of what ABC did a bunch of hooey. Re-write what ABC did and go on. Maybe they can’t get RH, ME. or KA back right now. Move on. Forget that ABC killed Hope, Cole and Tea’s baby. They didn’t have to accept that. The fans would have understood if they had picked up as if the characters never went to GH.
Get OLTL back on the air and let’s move on before other stars get contracts for other shows. That would be the real crime in my eyes.
CW’s b& the beast is one of the most racially diverse tv shows and it’s quite good. It’s shocking that kristen kreuk wasn’t whitewashed and actually portrays a char who’s part Asian american! They even had her Asian american sister on an ep. Her boss is African american. The main villain is Indian american actor sendhil ramamurthy who is not only handsome but a very good actor best known for nbc’s heroes. It’s very diverse and quite well acted and entertaining for a sci fi tv show. They should continue more racial diversity on b&tb! While that other show abbreviated as b&tb should learn more abt racial diversity from much younger beauty and the beast.
SHE IS A LOUSY ACTRESS
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 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.
