Shemar Moore Makes a Return to The Young and the Restless
In a big return as part of Y&R’s golden anniversary celebration, look for Shemar Moore (Malcom Winters) to reprise his Daytime Emmy-winning role.
According to Deadline, the current star of CBS’ S.W.A.T. will be seen in the upcoming May 8th episode of the CBS daytime drama series.
In story, Malcolm returns to Genoa City to connect with his daughter Lily (Christel Khalil) and nephews: Devon (Bryton James) and Nate(Sean Dominic).
Viewers last saw Moore in to his old stomping grounds, when he appeared back in 2019 during Y&R’s tribute episodes to the late Kristoff St. John, who played Moore’s onscreen big brother, Neil Winters.
Since leaving Y&R, Shemar has starred on Criminal Minds, the aforementioned S.W.A.T. as well as numerous primetime and movie roles.
One thing that can be said about Moore – he always returned and remembered his daytime roots and start at Y&R.
So, excited to see Shemar back as Malcolm if even for a special guest appearance? Comment below.
It’s great to see ex-daytimers return to their roots! Julianne Moore did return to As the World turns For an ep at the end of the show. However since then she has changed her tune and makes fun of the show. Very unclassy!
I meant Julianne moore returned to ATWT at the end of that show. Sorry!
Cant wait to c him back on y&r always loved him on there and hope he stays!!!!!
What??
I believed Neal was Lily’s father, huh?
Lily and Devon say; what dad (Neal) would want–huh?
So Lily and Devon are not brother and sister, sigh
All I know is that Devon was adopted and I always thought Neal was her father too. But somewhere during the time I was working and did not watch the show I guess that Neal’s brother slept with his wife and they had a baby. Malcom I think was not ready to be a dad so that’s when Neal adopted her her.
Drucilla and Malcom are Lily’s biological parents but Neil was the father who raised her as his own. Devon was adopted by Dru and Neil when he was a teen. His biological mother was Yolanda Winters and was a drug addict and actually recovered and arrived in GC for a bit and Tucker is Devon’s biological dad, thus Katherine was his biological grandmother and left him billions.
Hi marghertia,
So-
Neal fathered no children.
He left no legacy/bloodline children behind.
I didn’t know that.
That was nasty writing.
Also- adopting children and bringing them up
with love is awesome.
Neil did father Moses with Sophia
Of course, in true soap style, Malcolm slept with Sophia while she was with Neil. That led to questions about Moses’ paternity. I was glad Neil was confirmed as the bio-dad because he deserved to have at least one of his own.
They say “Turnabout is fair play.” Malcom already fathered Lily by raping Dru. The truth only came out after he returned from ‘death’. (Everyone thought he’d died on a photoshoot in Kenya a few years earlier).
So he comes back, demands a pat. test and finds he’s the bio-dad.
Now, Malcolm’s engaged to Sofia, Neil sleeps with her one night, and a later test shows her son, Moses, to be Neil’s offspring
Colin Robinson,
Hi, first of all Malcom did not rape Dru. He was visiting one night and she was high on cold meds. They both realized after, what had happened and tried to forget about it.
Hi, Colin—
Ohhh—Malcolm raped Dru—I guess my grandmother is mistaken. She forgot? She told me Drucilla cheated.—WOW. LOL. I’m really not into Devon or anything pertaining to him.
I ‘m, actually, more interested in Phylis’ sticky dilemma —-I’m sure she’ll come up with something—hmmm—like Stark held her hostage (captive) and concocting her death just to get revenge on Diane. It’s the only way Phyllis would be able to resurrect.
Also, Drucilla’s sister, Olivia Hastings is the mother of Nate. Olivia was at a time married to Malcom. I wasn’t watching at that time for I was in graduate school and didn’t have time to DVD record so I am not clear on what that drama brought back then.
Neal had a son name Moses with Sophia. Now Moses is in medical school.
Set ’em straight Maghertia. OKURRR! LOL.
Shemar Moore was also Victoria Rowell’s(Drucilla) late night hookup on the dl in real life and she made sure errrbody knew it.
davlestev1,
So nice of you to enlighten everyone and with every TV Soap news, I read, there was no gossip of that so if true all I can say is “lucky her”!
Ok! This is a “Soap.” I can’t keep track of who married whom much less who is everyone’s father and the mother. Have to admit it makes me frustrated sometimes.
For now: New Summer did a great job the other day. I have not been able to easily adjust to her new presence. However, now Phyliss is replaying Dianne’s past. Is that what’s happening. I am alwas days behind in viewing.
Hi. Tani—-Long time no see—yes, Summer is killing it—
I just wonder where to Phyllis’ death is leading—-she needs to return somehow. A possibility would be for Phyllis to blame it all on Stark—I’m pretty confident the writers could work their weird magic.
Actually, Phyllis could go one step further and blame Diane, as well. In other words— that Diane and Stark were working together all this time to swindle both Phyllis and Jack—-all for the almighty dollar.❤️
Hi Celia —
Yes, a long time. No idea what will happen, however, saw someplace a picture of Phyllis in a crazy disguise. Think about what they could do with that! Best to you. I remain a lazy viewer!
Hi, SusieQ—Neil was not Lily’s bio Dad. Drusilla( Lily’s Mom) cheated on Neil with his brother Malcolm. I think that it was a secret for a long time.
Devon came into the picture years later—-and, he’s adopted.
Neil had only one bio child—Moses —Whatever happened to him? I can’t remember if Neil was married to Moses’ mother ( Sophia) or not). Remember, my friend—it’s a soap where everyone sleeps with each other and then some. LOL
Dru didn’t cheat sheet thought it was Neil she was very sick and on medication
Devon is adopted ,,and drucilla ,lily’s mom was pregnant and did not know who father was at time ,they thought it was Neil until finding out later,,they are not biological but we raised as siblings
Anytime Shemar can come back home to Y&R is a gift. “Malcolm” hasn’t had a chance to see the new jazz lounge dedicated to his big brother Neil Winters aka the late Kristoff St. John❤. What emotional scenes they will be❤.
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.
