Loving Justin as Adam/Gabriel.
Just put Sharon and Adam back together and I will be happy. I am very upset the writers forgot Sharon and Adam had years of friendship and super couple. Chelsea does not come close.
That is what I said. Sharon and Adam should get back together. Sharon knows Adam better then anyone. Adam could not live without Sharon his entire time on the show. Why are the writers changing history anyone can look back and see how much Adam and Sharon meant to each other. Chelsea never should of been the person to give Adam a kid. Sharon was the love of Adams life he repeated time and time again for so many years
I wish Adam had told Sage that Sharon is a good mother, etc. They were married once upon a time.
I was one of the viewers caterwauling,”No Adam recast!” I really did not think it was possible. I am happy to be found wrong. Michael Muhney was brilliant at creating a complex, nuanced character. This actor has run with the baton he was handled paying fidelity to the characterization of Adam while also making it his own. While the two actors do not look alike, their mannerisms are similar. Justin Hartley has a certain glint in his eye which is strongly evocative of Michael Muhney’s Adam. That said, I would not mind a friendship or a romantic relationship being re… Read more »
Pratt hear our cry! SHARON and ADAM belong TOGETHER! I never EVER liked Chelsea from day one. Sharon and Adam for years had me excited to see The Young and The Restless. They just need him to come back to show he loves his son but as soon as he does he WILL go find as the role of Adam Newman can be seen in many videos he will find his true love Sharon. Infact Adam has always said “Sharon you can’t quit me!” He loves Sharon. STOP treating Sharon like a doormate! Also bring back the REAL Drucilla aka… Read more »
NOoooooooooooooooooooooooooo !!!!! this whole year has been such a long wait for us fans waiting to see Adam and Chelsea reunite. Chelsea is the Love of his life. Sharon cannot compare with Chelsea. Sharon needs a new love interest and stop circling from one Newman to another. Leave Chelsea and Adam alone. he is going to be the next Powerful Newman with his beautiful family there right beside him and Victor can retire from Y&R.
Shadam was Sharon Case & Michael Muhney. It was their chemistry that sold that pairing. Justin Hartley may be a stud muffin, but he’s no Muhney. I know a lot of people are licking his banana, but he’s got a long way to go before he’s up to that task of making the viewers forget about Muhney’s version of Adam Newman. Let Hartley stayed paired with MCE’s Chelsea, who is more his speed. Leave Case with Morrow. At least they have a long term history together.
No way should he get with Sharon!! Sharon is an idiot!! Chelsea and Adam are HOT!!!
Mr Pratt and JFP please hear our cry! SHARON and ADAM belong TOGETHER! I never EVER liked Chelsea from day one. Sharon and Adam for years had me excited to see The Young and The Restless. They just need him to come back to show he loves his son but as soon as he does he WILL go find as the role of Adam Newman can be seen in many videos he will find his true love Sharon. Infact Adam has always said “Sharon you can’t quit me!” He loves Sharon. STOP treating Sharon like a doormate! Also bring back… Read more »
Love the new Adam, better looking, better actor and so far, no cockiness. He and chelsea have incredible chemistry, unlike chelsea and billy. He’s like a mannequin. Sharon and adam? Why? Nick will always be the love of sharon’s life, just like Victor is Nikki’s. Doesn’t matter who they’re with, they will always be emotionally tied to Nick or Victor. Why make Adam miserable? I want him to be absolved of Delia’s death too, and I have a feeling we will find out that it was either Kelly or Sage who did it. My money is on Kelly. I so… Read more »
I think Justin has done amazingly well stepping into the role of Adam Newman; he’s really gone ahead and made the role all of his own. I’m looking forward to see the outcome of Adam’s deceit and when it’s come to light that he’s alive and has been functioning in Genoa City as Gabriel Bingham. I have a strong feeling this disaster storyline is going to be where all of that comes out.
Michael thanks for the interview but Shadam fans want to know will we get back Shadam. Sharon and Adam have such a romantic history . Remember New Orleans 🙂
That was with MM &Sc in the parts no going back let them rewrite history! Adam & Sharon were a tragic love story but it was the actors that sold it! Let it go
No I love Sharon and Adam also. I will never be down for Chelsea with Adam . It was never a love story. Chelsea was preggers in a bar and Adam sad he could not be with Sharon . Nick made Sharon choose either its Faith or Adam of course Sharon had to pick her child. Chelsea has zero chemistry with Adam . The nuAdam right away had amazing chemistry with Sharon just in the little we seen. It was so so exciting #Shadam 🙂
I agree with Kay. There is no going back and the new Adam/Gabriel needs to stay with Chelsea. Justin is doing a great job but that magic your talking about was S.C.& M.M. in New Orleans. If it we’re to continue with M.M. do you really think Sharon would have been going through this custody case without Adam by her side? The writers have given Justin his own story line and we have to put the past where it belongs. Even when Sage asked about Sharon in the coffee house Adam only said “my ex wife”. We need to bury… Read more »
JH is doing a fantastic job as “Adam Newman”. Michael Muhney was Great and I loved his portrayal but JH is has won me over!
Sharon has to find out its Adam . PLEASE mention Sharon Case in the interviews she is treated so horrible on the show
Ditto
I love the interview, Justin seem so down to earth and he has really made Adam Newman worth watching again. I can’t wait to see when everyone find out Adam is alive and I am curious on how they will get him out of all the legal trouble including the assuming another person ‘s identity and financial assets.
Well, he’s already kissing Braeden’s butt, so he’ll be able to stick around for at least a year.
Hartley should have thanked Muhney for developing such a great character for him to inherit, but Phelps probably told him to never mention his name.
I love this guy’s personality. Very real and down to earth. He is doing a killer job with this role. It was an adjustment after losing Michael Muhney in the role but he has really blossomed. He has similar intensity in certain scenes with Jack and Victor like Mr Muhney did. I am really looking forward to seeing his true identity be revealed to Chelsea and the rest of the Newman clan. Justin Hartley thank you for being so amazing and for taking the chance with the loyal Y&R fans. You are doing a great job. Keep it up.
Loving Justin Hartley as Adam. Michael who?
If not for Michael Muhney’s incredible work for over four years, there’d be no Adam Newman. Funny how silly fan girls forget reality.
LOL
YES! guys included
thank you for bringing to the forefront thee one and only Michael Muhney
I absolutely do know… that Justin Hartley is bringing show
just like Gina Tognoni…
I can’t believe that two recasts… are making their mark
JH has made Adam again
NOW : it’s feast time for ignite passion and frontburner Adam and Sharon!
MIchael Muhney : I hope you show up on DAYS
I’m just messing with ‘ya. I like Michael Muhney’s work, but I prefer Justin Hartley’s portrayal of Adam. As for Mr. Muhney, I hope he unloaded that “big backpack full of hubris”, learned from this experience, and finds success. Loved his Sheriff Lamb on Veronica Mars.
And “Fan Girl”? Really. lol.
this guy is bananas hottie fineness. He is Adam perfection!
so enjoyed this interview. We fans like to get a feel of the real personality of a favorite TV star.
Justin has done a fantastic job coming in as he has. Congrats and thanks.
Loved Michael as Adam, but if anyone could fit in it is Justin. He suits the character perfectly, handsome, young and sexy as H***. Best to You Justin, we will continue to watch….everyday. Young and Restless is MY daily stress buster.
I hope Sharon now goes and figures it out its Adam. Adam and Sharon were everyones favorite couple. The love and freindship was like nobody. Nick is nothing. Sharon and Adam would do anything and knew each other better then they knew themselves 🙂
I’m with you… I HOPE beyond HOPE that it’s Sharon who figures out who Adam is first.
therein… romance abound… and their lives are all that matter…. team up and bring down the dullard Newmans.. including Nikki
Not everyone 🙂
NOOOOOOOO I just do not think Chelsea is right for Adam. Adam and Sharon loved each other so very much. I really hate how the writers keep making Sharon be so abused by the Newmans. It is a shame . Sharon is a kind women. Adam loved Sharon and Sharon loved Adam. Nick does not do right by Sharon. Team Shadam
I can just feel the fan sentiment… that Y&R had better not screw this up… the true loves of their lives… one and only
Sharon and Adam!
period
for many reasons… I’m sick of the Newman “enterprise’ that y&r is built around
they dull the senses… i’m so over them all… except Victoria.. she’s thee more humane one… I’ll grandstand …
it’s heartache over… Sharon and Adam live on
I’m new to the Y&R since ABC axed OLTL and AMC. So I don’t know all of the histories, including Sharon and Adam. But I could see the two of them as an interesting story to rekindle. Especially from what I have seen so far. I haven’t seen all the “bad” stuff Sharon did in the past so I’m a little biased. But I don’t now like the way she’s being dumped on by everyone. Especially Nick. At least they had a flashback on some of what he’s done in the past, and I think he’s a narcissistic jerk.
Adam does not tell Chelsea who he really is because he does not trust her. BUT I know Sharon loves Adam enough to keep him safe and keep his secrete. Now the writers should know that history and know Sharon and Adam are a true super couple . Loved them inj the past and will again team Sharon forever! 🙂
without doubt… TEAM Shadam “FOREVER”
Y&R has no other recourse
fan outcry NOW
@patrick it will never be the same MM & SC sold it I can’t imagine the same chemistry with JH so let it go I for one want my girl to just walk away from the Newmans
Great interview. Justin looks like a really nice person and is a great Adam Newman.
Love him as Adam
I love and will always miss Michael Muhney but this guy Justin is damn good as Adam and a nice guy to boot. Keep up the good work dude!
Justin is adorable! I have been fan of his since his days on Smallville, and I was thrilled that he not only wanted to come back to daytime, but that Y&R snagged him. He is doing a fantastic job as Adam/Gabriel. I cannot believe that he eats like crap considering how in shape he is. I love to eat too, but thankfully I choose healthy food.
I want to see Adam succeed in winning back Chelsea and Connor. There is a lot of potential for Chadam 2.0 with their great acting, looks, and charm. Both are under age 40 and both look young and great and should be a big part of the show now and in the future. They are a great couple with great chemistry and with good writing there is great potential.
Justin is doing a great job as Adam/Gabriel – another successful re-cast following Gina Tognoni taking over the role of Phyllis.
Now if we can just get another Billy Abbott.
I read this blog daily in hopes of Billy Abbott being recast. The actor playing him does not get the role of Billy at all! Agree with you on the recast of Adam and Phyllis, both are fantastic!
Shadam were not a great love story, and being involved with Adam was one of the gross stories that mearly destroyed Sharon’s character. They are better as friends. Chelsea is the love of his life.
AGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I Don’t want to see Adam ever with Sharon again. Him and Chelsea Make the show. Sharon is os whiney and always blaming her actions on her meds.its so discouraging to hear that for people who have bi-polar.Not being on her meds does not make you do things you don’t remember. It just gives you a BS attitude that you know what your doing but don’t care. That is another big mistake if they keep pairing sharon and Nick back together at times. Its old. we have already watched that for decades with Victor and Nikki.
That’s so true, Adam and Chelsea forever!
Michael,both you and Justin are such polite,gracious and fun loving men. Such a great interview. I would like to see Adam soften up a little more and make his friend Jack very proud of him again he needs to so he can actually show how much Conner means to him.
Did you notice when speaking of Sally Kellerman he said “the other day” making it sound like she is back filming scenes? An online search shows that in a Jan. 23 interview with The Morning Call, Kellerman confirms she was asked to return and she agreed. Will she be appearing in flashback scenes, as a ghost or is she still alive?
Yes I caught that about Sally Kellerman. I bet Adam will begin having nightmares or possibly Sage could.
I love Justin he is so hot .watching him just makes my day .you could say he came on this show just in time sorry about that,Justin Keep up the good work.
Justin is so very hot and is such a nice person too,and of course a fantastic actor. Love the interview.what a guy.
While I am a definitely a fan of Michael Muhney’s acting…..it just so happens I am a fan of Justin Hartley’s as well. I especially enjoyed seeing Justin in the primetime series Mistresses . He is the perfect replacement for the Adam Newman/Gabriel role. Besides being eye candy….he is a talented actor. I really wish Justin and Michael the best in their new acting ventures and look forward to seeing them both.. Great interview.
