Here’s a list of the top exit and entrance news from all four daytime dramas. Find out if any of your favorite performers from yesteryear are returning to the shows you follow, or if any new actors or actresses have been cast in contract, recurring, or day-player roles.

The Young and the Restless

Colleen Zenk, best remembered for her run as Barbara Ryan on As the World Turns from 1978 until the show ended in 2010, has joined The Young and the Restless cast. The daytime vet is portraying Claire’s (Hayley Erin) much-talked-about Aunt Jordan, the mastermind behind Nikki’s (Melody Thomas Scott) kidnapping.  

J. Eddie Peck has been announced as returning to the role of Cole Howard, which he played from 1992 to 1999. A show spokesperson said he’ll be returning later this month.

After many months off the canvas, some key members of the Baldwin-Fisher clan are finally resurfacing. Judith Chapman reprises the role of Gloria Abbott Bardwell, Greg Rikaart is back as Kevin Fisher, and Christian Le Blanc returns as Michael Baldwin just in time to celebrate Thanksgiving. Le Blanc is making his first appearance since taking a medical leave to battle cancer.

Ellen Travolta reprises her role as General Hospital’s fiery Gloria Cerullo on Thursday, November 23.  Lois’s (Rena Sofer) mother is set to arrive in Port Charles in time to help the Quartermaine clan celebrate Thanksgiving. Travolta originated the matriarch back in 1995.
