It's been the top-rated soap opera on television for 1,000 consecutive weeks. That's amazing.
And it certainly makes The Young and the Restless deserving of a photo tribute. Click on the following thumbnails for larger versions...
In celebration of The Young and the Restles turning 35 years old the week of March 24, SOAPnet will be airing interstitials with the cast, as various members talk about their juiciest moments on the show.
Exclusive to SOAPnet, the interstitials will air multiple times throughout the primetime airing of The Young and The Restless that week (Monday, March 24 through Friday, March 28 at 7:00P ET/PT), as well as in the weekend marathon (Saturday, March 29 from 7:00P 12:00A ET/PT).
Cast members joining in on the celebration include:
Here are a pair of casting notes from The Young and the Restless:
With her role on The Bold and the Beautiful lacking direction these days, Lesli Kay will be crossing over to sister soap opera The Young and the Restless in April
The move may even become semi-permanent, as Bradley Bell (executive producer of The Bold and the Beautiful) is willing to loan the actress to The Young and the Restless until he finds a way to reintroduce her on his series.
"Of course this is all still dependent on whether or not the crossover sparks with (the) audience. The Young and the Restless, which boasts more hunks than they know what to do with, needs her sex appeal, and her talent will fit right in," an insider says.
Kay began taping at The Young and the Restless on February 28.
Last year, Eric Braeden took a break from The Young and the Restless to film a movie called The Man Who Came Back.
It's a story of murder, conspiracy and one man's revenge, written and directed by Glen Pitre. Braeden portrays Reese Paxton in the movie.
The premiere took place on February 8, 2008 at the Aero Theater in Santa Monica, California. Here's a look at Braeden and costar Joshua Morrow from the event:
