Ashley being back is probably what I’m most looking forward to…. assuming she gets a real story. Lots to look forward to with Phyllis being on canvas. I’m probably in the minority here, but I don’t see a point of breaking Dylan & Avery up right now. Adding Avery’s ex in to the mix doesn’t excite me. I’m not familiar w/ the actor, who might turn out to be the best thing since sliced bread… but if we are going to introduce new actors I wish the actors playing them were familiar soap faces. Can think of so many AMC, OLTL, GL, ATWT, & even off canvas GH & Days actors I would rather see coming on board.

very good promo. maybe the action on Y&R is finally starting to heat up. Y&R needs to move stories along.

Just use the orignal background music and I’ll be happy!:)))

I must say…one screaming promo and all I could think was UHOH..Phyllis is awake

Scott shouldv’e been Adam…Justin Hartley as Billy…Burgess as Joe…jmo!!!

Joe looks like somebody that stepped right out of the 50’s.

Yeah, Y&R just might be back. I’m not ready to proclaim the current show runners as saviors just yet. JFP’s history is too sketchy for me to ever fully accept her as EP of this show. I’m still steamed about David Tom’s ouster. That was wrong. Abby also irritates me. The Winters clan have the collective personality of a dial tone. Other than those obvious problems, the show is on fire right now. The look and feel of the show is very similar to the days of Bill Bell and Kay Alden.

Hopefully this is a sign that Y&R is getting back on track. It was a very good promo and hopefully what comes next is equally as good. I’m really looking forward to Phyllis waking up, as well as Ashley’s return, and Kelly Sullivan coming to Y&R! I agree with Reagan above, I don’t see the point of breaking up Dylan and Avery now, but I guess it will add a bit of interest to the pairing, which is in desperate need right now.

But what I’m most looking forward too is Adam’s return! So much time has passed and the character is really needed right now. Plus, Justin Hartley is a very good actor, no he’s not Michael Muhney and no one else is except MM, but I’m really hopeful that his portrayal of Adam will be good.

Yawn, another lame attempt to attract viewers.

It is so uncanny how Scott Elrod looks so much like my gorgeous and sexy Italian husband. I can’t wait…yeeees! Y&R, hurry and get back to that pinnacle of holding the #1 spot in the ratings….

Sadly this promo is just a retread of the same ol’ stories the show has been forcing on us for months — Devon and Hillary’s “forbidden” desire; Nick looking like a fool giving his heart to Sharon (after she married his half-brother and father); Nu-Billy and Chelsea making chemistry free eyes at one another while Victoria stands around unable to believe that the man she continues to reject isn’t curled up in the fetal position and giving up on life as a result of said rejection; Victor’s fruitless search for that damn secret of Sharon’s — mixed with the arrival of Avery’s ex (anything that gives her and Dylan more screen time can’t be good) and the impending return of Faux-lis (ain’t nobody ever gonna replace Michelle Stafford as proven by that flashback Jack had last week).

The only arrival I’m looking forward to is some new writers.

I, for one, am really ready for the “secret” of Summer’s paternity to be resolved. Who’s her real daddy? Nick or Jack? Let’s wrap it up, writers.

I hope it is Nick 🙂

I liked the promo. Hope CBS runs it during primetime too.

@CeeCee I disagree I think that they are comfortable with each other and that could be interpreted as boring.

Mix them up and it could be a lot of fun. I am interested vin seeing Avery with Joe and lets see Dylan move around the canvas a bit, try him with Phyllis, Ashley etc and see how it goes.

But I agree with other posters i am totally looking forward to fall.

The promo looks interesting, but it’s lipstick on a pig.

Here is a promo I want to see: “New and improved: The Young and the Restless has a new producer! No longer will boring characters (Dylan) be shoved down the viewers’ throats, no longer will history be rewritten, no longer will veteran actors be disrespected and discarded! Also, Michael Muhney returns as Adam Newman!”

Then, you’d have my attention, enthusiasm, and admiration!

James…R-I-G-H-T O-N!!!!! I mean…Y-O-U-R promo is something that I can get behind!!!!! Thank You.

Now…here is a promo that would, IMO, TRULY ROCK: “Soap Extra Soap Extra…read all about it!!!!! THE FABULOUS Kay Alden and John F. Smith are officially re-named as Y&R’s Head Writers. Also, THE WONDERFUL Tricia Cast (aka Nina) permanently comes home to Y&R. Most of all, the SUPER-AWESOME Jamesj75 is officially hired as Y&R’s BRAND NEW Executive Producer. There will be more wonderful details as they develop. Stay tuned…

Y-E-S!!!!!

I liked the promo, it has some promise & some hope. The only two stories that worked this summer was ShickWinters the rest was trash. I don’t want Mariah to be vile towards Sharon maybe very pissed and go after her in another way but not this, can’t any of today’s writers write anything but hateful stories?

Yes… I am excited to see Phyllis back with Jack ( where he belongs) and hopefully Kelly can find someone else…. I liked the character better with Cynthia W but I feel Cady is annoying to me. The weird part is that Meredith Baxter is playing her mom, and she looks closer to Jacks age, I was just wondering how nuPhyllis will look paired with Jack.

I look forward to some new characters as I think the show as it stands is a bit stale. Avery and Dylan are so boring…. I don’t dislike them, just not at all interesting on screen.

I LOVE that Ashley is back, as Eileen is just amazing anyway. So hopefully they will write a real story for her instead of background ….

Not loving this Neil story.. Hilary in love with his son? Talk about watching paint dry!

Bring Chloe back, she was fun to watch….recast her. Looking forward to nuAdam and Chelsea…. should be fun, and lets find a real Billy. This one doesn’t do it for me.
