Y&R alum, Victoria Rowell (Ex-Drucilla) is on her way back to CBS and on primetime.  In casting news, Victoria is joining the cast of the new medical drama, Good Sam.

According to Deadline, Rowell is set to play Tina Kingsley, a high-powered, sophisticated, chairwoman of the hospital board with the kind of power that does not assert itself. Alienated from her son Malcolm (Edwin Hodge), Tina possesses a strong will to take what’s in her sights, even when it means navigating complicated relationships from her past.

Good Sam centers on Sam (Sophia Bush), a talented yet stifled heart surgeon who embraces her leadership role after her renowned and pompous boss Dr. Rob “Griff” Griffith falls into a coma.

Recently, Rowell has been appearing on her series, The Rich and the Ruthless on BET+ and she was also known for her work on the CBS drama, Diagnosis Murder.

Good Sam air Wednesday nights at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

So, will you be watching Victoria on her new role on Good Sam? Comment below.

Yes l will be watching. Glad to see her back on CBS.

Victoria Rowell deserves better. GOOD SAM is a terrible show with a perverse premise: a twisted, megalomanical surgeon is pathologically jealous of his daughter and deliberately undermines her at every turn. The supporting characters are weak and the normally dependable Sophia Bush has little to work with. Instead of dragging in another character (a sure sign that a show is in trouble), they need to reconceive the whole concept. First, drop the father (charmless Jason Isaacs) and concentrate on the science and the challenges a woman would face in a sexist, patriarchal environment such as a hospital. Or…call it a loss and bring Ms. Bush back to CHICAGO PD, where she’s been sorely missed.

Soap hound, I agree 100%! I’m not sure I’m even going to continue watching. I keep hoping it will get better, but I’m almost ready to give up.
Not sure that Rowell will bring anything to the table. It would take someone much better that her.

Good to hear your perspective on this show as I have not seen it. However, Sophia Bush has certainly not been missed by me on Chicago PD. Did not like her which is the reason I’ve had no interest in checking out Good Sam – apart from having 3 medical shows on my viewing list!!!

Oh JenW, CHICAGO PD used to be my favorite show. But I gave it up after last season because every episode seemed the same: a drug dealer (of rotating ethnicity) wreaks havoc on Hank’s turf, the group mobilizes, Hank catches hell for bending the rules, and all ends well. Kim likes Ruzak, then doesn’t. Jay likes the other girl, who’s got more baggage than United Airlines. I just got bored!

Jason Isaacs is the ONLY reason I watch Good Sam. I find Sophia Bush annoying on the best of days.

Soaphound
I watched one time and agree with you. That father was a real jerk, enough for me. I do miss her on Chicago P.D

This is wonderful news.

absolutely

Now that’s something to tune into because I just love her.

Unfortunately the winters clan is completely watered down with Lily and Devon at the helm. Besides Crystel on a good day, Bryton is a complete snooze as Devon . With Kristoffs sad passing, Malcolm , Olivia and Mamie never mentioned , Drucilla s return would be out of place. Otherwise if Victoria is back on good terms with Cbs it would be great for her to segway back to y n r for a visit.
Y n r has had sooooo many gorgeous and talented black actors like those that portrayed Anna, Devons sister, the new Nate with Elena and Imani who continually get sidelined, Leslie and Tyler Michaelson the brother and sister that mixed it up with Neil and Lily etc…why the show focuses on Lily and Devon who are very subpar i’ll never understand!

Maybe Victoria Rowell come back to Y&R as Drucilla’s Ghost or a figment of Devon and/or Lily’s imagination to give them advice.

So glad to see Victoria back on TV. Such a gifted actress.

Lucas Adams and Tamara Braun Written Out of The Young and the Restless

Published

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 Says She Will Return to ‘The View’ During its Season 30

Rosie O'Donnell

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.
