Bronson Pinchot - best known for his goofy role on the old sitcom Perfect Strangers - will be making a guest appearance on the Young and Restless.
Reportedly, he will be appearing as a publicist named Patrick in March 14, 18, 19, 24, 25 and 26 episodes.
Dillard's is a retail department store offering fashion apparel and home furnishings from coast to coast.
Why does this matter to fans of The Young and the Restless? Take a look at upcoming appearances from stars of that show now:
In a recent interview, Christel Khalil was asked about her role on The Young and the Restless, along with her enthusiasm for the show.
"I auditioned and came back for a screen test," Khalil said about the process that lead to her appearing on the legendary daytime series. "I've been there for six years since I was 14 Kristoff St. John, who plays my father, was great to work with. I love being on the show."
And fans love having her on there!
Lynn Marie Latham, executive producer and head writer of The Young and the Restless, has been fired from the soap opera.
Latham's office had been reportedly cleared out late last year when she refused executives' requests to continue working on the show during the writers' strike. Her contract permitted her to continue production work for The Young and the Restless during the strike because of her hyphenated job title of head writer and executive producer.
Latham, however, chose to walk the picket line with her fellow writers.
In the aftermath of the firing, it's speculated that acting executive producer and head writer Josh Griffith will be offered an official executive producer post.
Griffith, who was hired by The Young and the Restless during the WGA work stoppage, used the "financial core" clause in his union membership to continue working during the strike. It is unclear if Griffith, like Latham before him, will pull double duty as executive producer and head writer.
"It has been difficult, it has been trying," Gottesfeld posted on a message board for writers. "[My wife] Cherie and I survived with our jobs at The Young and the Restless intact, others were not so fortunate. Friends and colleagues are now trying to figure out what to do."
Let's take a look at what's in store this week on The Young and the Restless...

Warning: The Young and the Restless spoilers ahead!
On February 11, the series will bring back Signy Coleman (pictured) as blind heroine Hope Adams. However, TV Guide reports that after just a week, the character will die on screen from pancreatic cancer.
"It's welcome back, now get the hell out of here!" says Coleman, who got the call to return while shopping in a New Jersey mall. "I was thrilled they want me to play Hope again, but so heartbroken they're killing her off that I just stood there crying in the middle of Barnes & Noble. She's the best character ever. But I'm also very grateful. They allowed me to bring her in, and they're allowing me to take her out."
Don't worry: there is a big upside to this sad event. Hope's son, Vic, to be played by Chris Engen, doesn't know he's the spawn of Genoa City megalomaniac Victor Newman (Eric Braeden).
"Hope's last wish is that her son connect with his father," Coleman says. "It's going to be dynamite."
Meanwhile: The show's younger set will also get a boost from Elizabeth Hendrickson, who was a sensation as All My Children's Maggie. The actress joined the series yesterday as Chloe, who she describes as a "funky, edgy fashion coordinator. She controls the Fresh Face of Jabot photo shoots and she's not a very good influence."
High-flying Chloe will get hold of contest winner Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) and expose her to a world of upscale parties, drugs and weight obsession to the point where the kid starts to lose her identity and her soul.
"I'm always playing the girl next door," Hendrickson says. "I want to be evil!"
