The Young and the Restless is celebrating its 50th year on television next month. To celebrate the milestone, they are bringing back five fan favorites.
They are Michael Damian as Danny Romalotti, Patty Weaver as Gina Roma, Barbara Crampton as Leanna Love, Tricia Cast as Nina Webster, and Veronica Webb as Mamie Johnson.
The actors’ return will lead up to the special episode, which is airing on the Soap Opera’s 50th birthday on March 26th. On that date, you “can expect big moments and a fun look back at Y&R’s rich history.” I wouldn’t be surprised if they had a few more guest surprises for us.
Who are you most excited to see come back to Genoa City?
Michael Damian used to spend a lot of time in front of the camera, but in recent years he has been working behind it with movies like Falling for Christmas with Lindsay Lohan, High Strung and its sequel, and A Princess for Christmas.
However, next month, he is going back to where he started. That’s right; he is going to reprise his role as Danny Romalotti on The Young and the Restless. According to Soap Opera Digest, he will appear in a few episodes starting on December 22nd.
While the magazine did not say what is bringing Danny home after almost ten years, the actor gave us a hint of who he will be working with, “Incredible excited to be returning to Genoa City working with all my amazing Y&R friends and family! @LauraleeB4real @TheRealStafford @Traceybregman @BethMaitlandDQB #michaelgraziadei”
