The week of October 1, 2018
Get ready for a new Summer Newman, albeit just for three episodes. Bayley Corman, who’s appeared on Modern Family, Jane the Virgin and Two Broke Girls, steps in for Hunter King on Tuesday, October 2, Wednesday, October 3 and Thursday, October 4.
King had to leave the soap to film CBS sitcom Life in Pieces, where she plays Clementine. However, she’ll be back on air as Summer on Friday, October 5.
Eileen Davidson wraps up her run as Ashley Abbott with a big dramatic exit, this week. Although Mal Young has said on the record that she’ll be back for more story, Davidson claims that’s not true, but could maybe pop back up for parties and family events.
The long-missing Faith Newman, who’s been away at camp, is set to resurface. Alyvia Alyn Lind returns as Nick (Joshua Morrow) and Sharon’s (Sharon Case) daughter on Tuesday, October 2 to attend her parents’ wedding.
The Young and the Restless (YR) airs weekdays on CBS. Check your local listings for airtimes.
