You can always count on the talented Michael Muhney (Adam) of The Young and the Restless to tell it like it is and be direct about his thoughts! Muhney took to Twitter this morning to let his followers, colleagues, and fans know that he is very enthusiastic of the future of Y&R under the new writing regime now led by Josh Griffith after reading their first script!
Here is what Muhney shared: “Does anyone care to know my critical thoughts after reading the first script of the new order at Y&R airing Oct 12th? Keep in mind, I’ve only just read the first script with new writing. There is cohesiveness in the overall storytelling. Things seem less disjointed. You can feel momentum build from page 1 to 60. I feel like there will be a lot more attention to characters’ voices, and somehow things feel more intense without any cheap tricks. It seems as though the show is on track. It feels like a strong ensemble. I feel like it is classic old show mixed with classy new energy. I feel like this show, as a whole, and with great respect to its history, could be entering one of its best eras. And while no writing team can be perfect all the time, based on this script & the ideas for the future, this show will be a beacon for CBS. And if I wasn’t happy about the writing or show’s future, I just wouldn’t say anything at all. But I’m honestly impressed.”
So soapers, are you excited to see what is to come in Genoa City under the Phelps and Griffith regime? Michael Muhney says its off to a very good start! Weigh-in!

Drew Barrymore Daytime Talk Show Pilot In The Works
This fall, new talkers from Tamron Hall and Kelly Clarkson will be part of the daytime television landscape, and now comes word that Drew Barrymore may enter the space with a new talk show for her that is in development with the pilot being shot this coming week.
According to Variety, details of the proposed one-hour show are not all clear, but Drew is said to be one of the executive producers of the pilot episode and yet there is no showrunner attached to the project at this time. Barrymore’s company, Flower Films is likely attached as well.
Back in 2016, Barrymore had a deal in place with Warner Brothers Telepictures for a talk show, but that never came to pass, in part to a lukewarm response from TV station groups at that time.
However now the new regime at CBS’ syndication arm is said to have ‘high hopes’ for the show and they feel that Drew will appeal and do well in the daytime arena.
Barrymore recently appeared in her third season of Netflix’s Santa Clarita Diet in its 30 episode season. Through her Flower Films she was been an executive producer on unscripted series including TLC’s Rattled and VH1’s Tough Love.
So, would you be interested. or intrigued to see what kind of show Drew Barrymore has to offer in daytime? Think she would be a good host? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.

The Bold and the Beautiful Ratings Winner With Phoebe is Beth Reveal
Great news for The Bold and the Beautiful and their long-awaited payoff: that the little girl being raised by Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) as “Phoebe” is really Liam (Scott Clifton) and Hope’s (Annika Noelle) daughter, Beth, who they believed had died in the long and twisty baby switch storyline.
B&B was the highest rated daytime television show in the key 25-54 womens demo and the first time in the 32-year-old history of the CBS sudser that it has been atop of that demo. That is not only among the network soaps but all series genres in daytime for the week of August 5-9 – quite the feat.
During the ratings week, Liam figured out that Phoebe was Beth, and eventually after Thomas’ (Matt Atkinson) manipulations told Hope the truth.

All this goes to show that as frustrated as viewers get wanting the truth to come out in a story they follow; when it finally does, they are along for the ride. Something B&B executive producer and head writer, Brad Bell does exceptionally well with big umbrella storylines that hold major ramifications for many on the canvas.
Congrats to Brad and the B&B team!
So, what do you think of BOLD’s performance in the ratings for the big week in story? Comment below

Kelly Monaco Addresses Billy Miller’s Departure From GH
In a post via her twitter account, General Hospital’s Kelly Monaco (Sam) shared her heartbreak on her longtime scene partner, Billy Miller’s (Drew) exit from the ABC daytime drama series. This was the first time that Kelly addressed the situation in a public forum.
Miller came on to GH back in 2014 as Jason Morgan, following the departure of Steve Burton, who then wound up on Y&R. When Burton returned to GH in 2017, Miller’s part was then turned-in-to, Jason’s twin, Drew Cain.
Through a great portion of Miller’s run on GH, he was paired romantically on -screen with Monaco and the duo were, and have remained, one of the most popular duo’s in daytime.
Monaco expressed the following in her message: “I feel like I have to address this situation. #BillyMiller ‘s untimely departure from #gh. Honestly, I can not come up with the words to describe how I feel about this decision… a decision that may not be what our audience thinks to be true. I’m heartbroken… more to come.”

Thank the Lord above, we have hope and so long to the hack MAB. Thank you Michael M for the update, can hardly wait until the new material begins to air.
It sounds hopeful!!! I believe in Josh G. I hope Adam and Chelsea will brake up ! I think that had to be the WORST snooze in couple history!!! It was so sickening to have to watch that shmoopie {referencing to a old Seinfeld episode) Shmoopie gag crap!!! Adam is better evil. Loved him with Sharon!!!!
DITTO JOSEPH !!! All around 🙂
AMEN and AMEN. Horray for Adam and Sharon. I wouldn’t mind Adam having a nice side, but be hard core when you have to. Adam and Victor both can play that tough skin role exceedingly well.
I concur! I am now really excited about the new material!
Sounds like there is hope the show will have it’s twists and turns and hot romances make. I am being hopeful Lol
Mark my words, JFP will do something to screw it up eventually as a ratings ploy. Kill off beloved vets (Kay?) and go from Corp to mob focused!
Adam loves Sharon it was no way believable he would ever love anyone else. Chelsea is a con and gives her baby away . No one will ever except her. maybe if the actress could act.
Thanks but I will have to wait and see..I have been waiting for a very long time for a story of depth and love for Likey Lauren and Michael..Christian LeBlanc a three time emmy winner and Tracey Bregamn a 1 time Emmy winner have been reduced to props for the Newmans and it has gotten to the point that I gave up and only watch when Michael, Lauren or both are on..I can no longer tolerate what they have done to my couple..Whenever CLB and TEB have had a chance to shine..they have rocked the show..If Josh or Jill continue to use them as props for the others I am completely done with Y and R..
I hope they re cast Chelsea. Adam is so boring with that girl. No chemistry. I loved him with Sharon. That was HOT!!! <3 <3 <3
Hope they have some good stuff in store for Adam and Chelsea….
I want to see them stay together…..struggle ,but stay together.
I’m also a fan of Chelsea and Adam. They’re very refreshing. They can be the town’s bad couple.
I never liked Chelsea It was never believable that they went from her a con raping men and drugging them her entire life stealing the money and left Billy to rot in jail. She blamed her mother but she is an adult. She gave away her child with a blink of an eye! It is disgusting. Most hate her for that the most. She is fake and sickening NO CHEMISTRY sorry! Re cast her she can’t act just giggle and homley looking Adam needs to be with someone his mother would aprove of like Sharon
I do hope you are right, Michael M. In recent years, I have not enjoyed my Y&R as much as I once did. The Newman, Abbott, and Wililams families have been so tossed and torn, the relationships and characters no longer seem defined or make sense. Thanks you for the tease and we the fans, with you and your fellow castmates, hope for better days in Genoa City. There were once times, Y&R was so bright on my radar. I cannot say that right now.
He tweeted yesterday he was leaving the show. Why? Besides he said he was offered a lead role in another show.
Here’s hoping for a way better TY&TR than has been seen in the last few years.
I agree I liked him much better being bad. I do not like this Chelsea person She and Adam are boring. I never liked her and think the acting is really bad. I also loved Adam how he was with Sharon. Much better fit. Although I loved Sharon and Nick and pray Phyllis is off the show soon . I’m so sick of that character and her issues she is on this show so much It’s horrible. They better make Phyllis go to Jail! I wish we find out that Snotty Summer is NOT Nicks baby. Poor Jack I love him. I hope Nikki and Victor act like to grandparents already not a high school wanna be.
I hope Adam’s first episode is to kick the snot out of Victor & Tucker for the taking advantage of Crazy Sharon then also help his brother Nick find a pair!!!
Sharon seems like the most normal person on the show right now!!! If you go through each character one by one think of there history with crimes sleeping around and cheating its horrific. The characters are all so mean and nasty. The ONLY two people I LOVE is Sharon and Billy and most of the time Jack. That’s it!!!
You will love this now I hear through a source he is tweeting he may get a lead in a prime time show! Maybe he should just zip it or has JFP started to clean house. LOL
LOVE SHADAM> I don’t like Chelsea at all. They need a actress we can repect and love. She is a criminal who I can not forgive. I like Adam bad and with Sharon.
I hope they make Adam back to the way he was. The Character has been boring with the pairing of this Chelsea. I loved him with Sharon. They had real chemistry.
I don’t like boring fake Chelsea either. she over acts and giggles like a baby
somebody is brownosing already!
I’m THRILLED about the new writing team (because honestly, a monkey in a top hat would do a better job than the hack Maria Areana Bell was) and I am so happy that Michael, one of the most vocal and passionate actors, is enthusiastic over the writing changes being made thus far. I, however, hope that the new writers take into consideration Chelsea and Adam’s baby, as well as the popular pairing of ‘Chadam’ itself. I would love to see them keep them together, but make them more of a Bonnie & Clyde duo with their naughty personality traits shining through. As long as Adam isn’t put back with Sharon- I’m happy 🙂
Chelsea should never have children after thowing hers away gross
I LOVED SHARON WITH ADAM!!!!
Chelsea didn’t throw her baby away any more than Sharon threw Cassie away. She gave her baby to his FATHER and his wife who she knew would be able to give him a better life than she could at that moment in time. That’s not called being gross; that’s called being selfless.
YES EMMA CHELSEA THREW AWAY HER BABY AND DIDN”T CARE POOR BABY JOH!
after reading this i am so excited!
If its all Newman’s Im less than thrilled and will be leaving this far behind.
A lot of twitters seem to be totally self serving lately, including that from an actor coming and going sort of demanding stories. Its becoming not about story telling but about egos and I do not enjoy egos
Agree again JT let’s also put Michelle Stafford on the back burner no reflection on the actress but it is overkill!!!
Muhney’s tweets just solidify my original joy for Phelp’s arrival and Griffith’s return. My only hope is that Adam doesn’t turn evil again, and that he and Chelsea stay together! Michael and Melissa have amazing on-screen chemistry and their pairing is one of my faves on the show.
Plus, I hope they reunite Nikki and Jack back together. Jikki topples over Niktor any day!
Love Adam and Chelsea they are my favorite also!!
I trust MM’s opinion that this show will really rock. Looking forward to it.
Im excited but still a little cautious. I hope that nothing happens to the character of Victor. He is what tunes me into y&r since 1987.
Sounds good.
Michael Muhney Is Super-Beautiful–Inside & Out. Yay! 😀 😀
Loved SHADAM; cannot stomach the CL/AN pairing so hopefully the new regime will fix that dastardly mistake MAB made in breaking the amazing chemistry MM and SC shared up. Looking fwd to the cohesiveness as well. So many plot points were just dropped and fans get tired of it.
Can you say, “BROWN NOSER”?
It will be hard to be worse than MAB. She married Victor and Sharon, it will be hard to top that.
How could Adam have stopped loving sharon, It is very difficult to believe it, I’m still a big fan of the YR but, God put them back together.
I think u r so hot. I really hope that u do not leave the show anytime soon or I will not be watching young and the restless any more. By the way I hope that your character remains with Chelesa. I hope they keep her as your wife. I think u r a great character on the show keep it up.
Amanda Cobb from Mississauga, Ontario, Canada
I don’t care about the plots and twists of the story. I only watch Y&R every day to gaze upon Michael Muhney.
