By Michael Fairman

As Billy (Jason Thompson) has been battling his inner demons and an alternate personality had emerged, which was caused by his deep vendetta with Adam Newman (Mark Grossman),  and the loss of his daughter Delia.

Now, The Young and the Restless is going to explore that deeper with Jason Thompson front and center in his own Billy-centric standalone episode set to air this Tuesday, September 17th.  The hour will focus on Billy grappling with his emotional trauma.

For weeks now, Billy has not been acting like himself as tried to kill Adam, and later was taken to a cabin by Kevin (Greg Rikaart) and Chloe (Elizabeth Hendrickson) to try to get him stabilized.  However, Billy does not remember when this dark version of himself emerges as he sets out to get at Adam.

In the latest promo for Y&R, Billy is seen choking himself as both he and his alter-ego seem to battle it out.  Look for others to appear in the episode along with Thompson including: Peter Bergman (Jack), Jess Walton (Jill), and Michelle Stafford (Phyllis)

In the hands of the incredibly talent Thompson, we know this will be a can’t-miss performance, as Jason always delivers and gives 110% to his work.

Check out the promo here ….  which also features Victor’s((Eric Braeden) life and death situation, and then let us know if you are looking forward to seeing the standalone episode with Jason via the comment section below.

Jason has been KILLING it as Billy!! I hope the recent rumours of Billy Miller returning are false. Dont get me wrong…I like Miller, but during his last yesr or so at Y and R, and basically his entire tenure at GH, he was just sleepwalking (ironic) through his parts. Millers version of Billy was more a man child, but the character has changed snd matured. Jason plays an adult Billy. He still has that reckless, inmature side, but its different. Some of his scenes with this alter ego have been chilling and haunting! He is definitely a front runner for Lead Actor Emmy! I hope he doesnt get rewarded with a pink slip! The chemistry with him and Amelia as Victoria is also off the charts! I look forward to this episode! The writing in this story has been layered and sophisticated. I am impressed all around!

I absolutely agree!

Agreed 100% I didn’t like Miller’s character was a bit to childish

I think if they even attempted to do that to Jason I think viewers would be throwing a fit their ratings are already in the tank over some choices they have made .

Agree

I agree as well I said the same about what I called the Phyliss exchange. I was so use to Gina and and what she did with the character that I am still trying to get use to Michelle Stafford I love Jason and Amelia together I to was team Miller. but since the the whole JT situation I felt the chemistry between them and I am hooked. Hoping another switch does not occur. I loving Jason as Billy

I agree.

I absolutely agree!!

Great Job Jason!

I see an Emmy for Jason. Its about time!

Yes i am should be awesome

NuAdam creeps me out.

Ugh, cannot stand him. He is so cold, I can feeling nothing for him but “just go away”

Theo creeps me out. Just the mere mention of his name makes my skin crawl. Now I know this sounds like a stupid question, but is Victor really dead, or does Nate have him in hiding somewhere and is Abby going to be manless yet again. As an on and off viewer since the mid eighties, and a steady one for the past 6 or so years, it will be weird not seeing Victor go off on his rants. Time will tell I guess. And on a side note, I like the pairing of Abby and Nate. But I have a feeling both Abby and Devon will get broken hearts when Nate and Devon’s girlfriend (I always forget her name), wind up with each other. The way they are always talking shop you know it’s coming sooner or later Thanks for listening and happy viewing everybody

Don’t worry they are setting Adam up you could not get rid of Braeden with a crowbar he thinks he is the show just like MB over on GH ! It’s a ensemble effort that makes it work always has always will be. Why JG is still hung up on this Delia stuff I guess his hatred for Pratt’s version of the story years ago but I think he needs to wrap it up. Hartley was never Adam to me just never cared for his version

I always thought Michael Michal Muney was wonderful as Adam. Loved his chemistry with Chelsea. Loved the whole story of their beginning, where he helps her get her GED and then dresses her for a formal party, (Iforgot what the party was for) and than he proposed to her in the rain. Loved it. Thanks for listening and thanks for the info. Happy viewing. And I agree with you on the Delia story. Enough is enough,

Miller doesn’t have the gravitas that Jason has.

Jason is a much better Billy than Miller was.. He is by far better.
Jason is a power acter. He delivers every time.
Looking forward to the episode.
I have no complaints about Jason/Billy.
Well, ahh one.
He sits with his legs spread so far apart yah could park a Volkswagen between them, that irritates me LOL ..

Also- I like the switches of Nina and Phyllis..
I like the new Nina better than MS’s and am loving MS back where she belongs as Phyllis!!
As for Billy Miller- GH did him wrong, terribly wrong. Wasted a great talent.

Congratulations Sharon Case on your 25 yrs. On the Young & The Restless you’re the best at what you do so keep up good work sharon!!

No doubt Jason is awesome but for the life of me-as much as I detest the character of Adam (the only time I liked him was when Justin Hartley played the role) Adam DID NOT deliberately set out to kill Delia! OMG, Billy made so many mistakes that led to her death, i.e taking the dog to the event, leaving her & the dog in the car alone when he stopped for ice cream and not locking them in! Adam very clearly stopped the car & got out & looked & saw the dog running off. He did not know he hit Delia. He was distraught over Connor’s diagnosis that he was gonna be blind like Hope. BUT when Adam found Delia’s scarf on the front of his car he kept quiet. Yes, that is horrible (i.e. B&B everyone keeping quiet about Hope’s baby) but NOT a crime. And Adam knew he was so hated that nobody would believe he didn’t kill Delia. So I am a bit over this business of Adam killing Delia. I mean, come on, he is a loving father, regardless of everything else & would never do that. I am sick of this.

I will probably get a lot of grief over this, but I found the whole Billy thing rather boring. I’ve heard of fighting demons, but this was a little over the top.
And come on, when and where did Victoria earn her Psychiatrist degree? It was just too unreal for me.Otherwise, Jason did a good enough job with the script he was given.

Forgot to mention that Delia’s corneas ended up in Connor’s eyes- GOOD LORD. How would Adam admit that he hit Delia in those circumstances! Lose/lose for Adam.

Was that the original actress that played Delia that was in this episode?

I watched the show and all I have to say is this: JASON BLEW ME AWAY!!!

This was hands down the best work I have seen Jason do to date. He is guaranteed an Emmy nomination…..they might as well just give him the gold now.

Also, this was by far the best episode Y&R has put out there in YEARS!! The writing was brilliant, directing was superb, the camera work was well done and the other cast members brought their A game and lastly, the special effects they used to show Billy falling to pieces was really cool.

I cannot wait to see what happens to Billy from here on out.

Cracks me up so many people assumed that Billy Miller was going to immediately go to Young and the Restless and “steal” poor Jason Thompson’s job. That’s what I actually read online. I think people should wait and see exactly what is going to happen first before assuming that. Right now, Billy Miller is doing a prime time role. If he does decide to ever go back to soaps,(and he may not) Maybe he will go to another soap altogether. Actually, being a big Billy Miller fan, I would prefer he does that rather than going to Young and the Restless or go back to GH. I don’t watch Y&R, but I wish Jason Thompson the best. He seems like a nice guy.

Jason Thompson is a great actor but this fighting demons story line is really depressing. When his family members including his dead child are telling him he is worthless and to run away, all I could think of is I hope no clinically depressed person is watching this. I hope Y & R has a public service announcement advising people to seek mental health treatment with a phone number for mental health services if they are in a dark place and I hope Billy resolves his issues by going to a qualified mental health practitioner.

‘The Young and the Restless’: New Co-Head Writers Talk Drama, Romance, and Intrigue Ahead in Genoa City on the Eve of Their Debut Script

Published

on

By

Y&R cast

Tomorrow on Wednesday, November 11 will mark the airing og the highly-anticipated first material and script from the new co-head writing team at The Young and the Restless, Jamey Giddens and Dan O’Connor.

The scribes will mark a turning point on Y&R after Josh Griffith was head writing the show since 2019. Now, they shared a look into their storyline plans with TV Insider ahead of the big day!

Let’s walk you through some of their thoughts on the key characters and their future in Genoa City.

Kyle and Victoria

First, the steamy romance of Victoria and Kyle 

Jamey Giddens explained, “This show has such a great history of these larger-than-life dynasties that are intertwined, and we also inherited this amazingly juicy, salacious story with Victoria (Amelia Heinle) and Kyle’s (Michael Mealor) affair. One of the things we wanted to look at is, ‘Well, how do we deepen those stakes?’ They are in the throes of this fun, frolicky, romp, but this could really be bad for these two if his uncle (Billy), who was her ex-husband, finds out about this.”

He continued, “We really wanted to harken back a little bit to the fact that Victoria experienced these things with Nikki and Cole (J. Eddie Peck). They battled over a man, and it’s like history repeating itself. And even though Claire (Hayley Erin) and Kyle are not currently romantically involved, no young woman’s going to want to find out that her mother is with her first love.” O’Connor added, “And Claire will be justified in having an opinion about that.”

Speaking of Claire, look for her and Audra (Zuleyka Silver) to go at it in the old-school style of Katherine and Jill!

Giddens shared, “They are kind of giving us our young adult Kay versus Jill rivalry. Seeing what Josh Griffith had set up, we were like, ‘Ooh, we like this.’ So, we really ratchet up the tension of these two women goading each other until one of them goads the other one a little too far, and it becomes a full-blown war that will cross from the boardrooms to their bedrooms. We see them as a really good next-generation Young and the Restless rivalry.”

Next, Sharon, Nick, Matt, Phyllis 

“Matt Clark (Roger Howarth) has traumatized this trio in very different ways,” shared Giddens. “By the time we started writing it, the audience doesn’t know what Nick (Joshua Morrow) did to neutralize that threat. And the mystery of that is really going to unite Phyllis (Michelle Stafford) and Sharon (Sharon Case) in a way that they’ve never been united before. There’s going to be a reckoning of sorts in terms of how Phyllis realizes just what Matt put Sharon through all of those years ago, and it’s going to reset the tone of the story a little bit.”

Dan O’Connor added that it appears Phyllis and Sharon might be Thelma and Louise-ing it? “Phyllis and Sharon are on a quest together, and the ultimate destination of that quest leads to a lot of surprises and maybe a few familiar faces popping by.”

Then, Billy, Sally Spectra, Adam, Chelsea 

O’Connor stated, “Ever since Adam helped deliver Sally’s baby, it has reignited the connection that the two of them have. But at the same time, Adam and Chelsea are in the throes of another corporate battle at Newman Media that’s going to have a surprising player mixed into it. And Sally is in the midst of figuring out how to deal with Billy’s hunger for Chancellor Industries. He promised that he would table all of this until after the baby was born, but now, the baby is born. And where does that leave their relationship and their marriage now that Billy is back on the hunt?”

Newbie, Dr. Andrew Bishop

“He’s a bit Dr. House-esque in terms of his bedside manner and any fantasy Nate (Sean Dominic) had of returning to medicine, and it’s going to be easy, think again, shared Giddens. Apparently, “Dr. Bishop (Fareed Ward) is here to thwart those dreams.

Changes ahead for Abby, Roxanne and Devon

We already know something is wrong health-wise with Abby Newman, but what? Meanwhile, Devon’s first love, Roxanne come back to Genoa City! Giddens teased, “We’re excited about this new actor, Tetona Jackson. She’s amazing. Dan came up with the idea to bring Roxanne back, and I fell in love with it immediately. Devon dumped her because he thought she was a gold digger because he had just inherited Katherine’s money. So, what if that inspired her to go become a self-made woman?”

Roxanne’s arrival complicates the relationship with Devon, but also will open up more drama between Jack and Victor. “Another little wrinkle to this is we really wanted to weave Abby back into the fabric in that she’s a Newman and an Abbott. And that was something that Mr. Bergman and Mr. Braeden, when they spoke to us, they were like, ‘We really would love to play more with Abby. She’s connected to both families.”

Eileen Davidson

Abbott Sisters

Could we be getting some Eileen Davidson in story? Dan O’Connor shared, “Ashley’s history of working in the Jabot lab is going to play a pivotal role in a storyline coming up very soon.” Meanwhile, Daytime Emmy winner, Beth Maitland (Traci) will have a story that, “returns Traci to her writer roots,

Big Event Planned for New Year’s Eve

Dan O’Connor offered up “As we go into 2027, there’s going to be a big event on New Year’s Eve that’ll bring the entire town together and it will kick off a bunch of different stories for everybody on the canvas. And we’re so excited for you to see what Sally McDonald (EP, Y&R) and our amazing directors and team put together.”

So after reviewing Jamey and Dan’s plans for some of the character on the Y&R canvas, what are your thoughts? Are you encouraged by what’s to come? What piques your interest the most? Let us know in the comment section.
