 OBSERVATIONS 

It’s out with the old and in with the new on January 13, when Jason Thompson debuts as Billy Abbott on “The Young and the Restless.” Thompson replaces Burgess Jenkins, who joined the soap in June 2014 replacing David Tom. But let’s face it, he’ll be judged by whether or not he measures up to Billy Miller‘s portrayal of the popular character.

In order the Thompson’s version of Billy to be a success and “Y&R” fans to accept him, 4 things need to happen.

Forever “Villy”
The chemistry between Amelia Heinle (Victoria) and Billy Miller was off the charts and reproducing it is nearly impossible. Despite their best efforts, Tom and Jenkins never came close. Thompson, however, has a major edge. He’s already been part of a daytime supercouple with Kimberly McCullough (ex-Robin) on “GH.” He knows the drill and the intricacies that go into creating one. Of course, he’ll also have to connect strongly with Heinle and that remains the intangible, if their Victoria and Billy is going to work.

Family Ties
As one of Genoa City’s core families, the Abbotts are a mix of high profile characters with intricate relationships. First and foremost, Thompson’s Billy will have to connect with Peter Bergman‘s Jack, the big brother he’s always looking up to and whose approval is paramount to him. He’ll also have to tap into Billy’s vulnerable side with Eileen Davidson‘s Ashley, the one sibling who’s always been able to reach him, even in his darkest hours. Lastly, there’s that all important bond he’ll need to master with Jess Walton‘s Jill as he navigates their push-pull dynamic. Their unconventional mother/son attachment is one of daytime’s most unique and intriguing.

Shaking Dr. Drake
A big part of Thompson’s success will be depend on whether or not daytime fans can accept him as someone other than GH neurosurgeon Patrick Drake. He played the part for a decade and, in many ways, became synonymous with him. Heck, just seeing Thompson out of a lab coat and into a suit on a daily basis is going to be odd. Fortunately, Thompson is a consummate actor. He earned five daytime Emmy nominations during his tenure in Port Charles — three as Outstanding Lead Actor and two as Outstanding Supporting Actor. So if anyone can master the switch – even one as radical as transforming from a serious super doc to a lovable screwup – it’s Thompson.

Vitriol and Victor
The only thing as important as the rapport Billy shares with the people who know and love him in Genoa City, is the animosity between him and Eric Braeden‘s Victor. Their vitriolic relationship is like none other in soaps. There’s an undercurrent in every scene between them – Victor forever hating Billy for the love spell he’s cast upon his daughter Victoria, and Billy forever loathing Victor for his condescending arrogance. It will be crucial that Thompson keep that undercurrent alive any time the two characters cross paths, because it is a pivotal part of who Billy is.

“The Young and the Restless” celebrates Valentine’s Day, this week, with hot hookups, a proposal and a stunning pregnancy.

The hookup portion of the holiday includes the usual suspects. Cane (Daniel Goddard) and Lily (Christel Khalil) rendezvous in a room upstairs at the Genoa City Athletic Club. “I’ve got you all to myself,” says Cane, as he pulls Lily into a kiss and then leads her onto the bed.

Meanwhile, the long estranged Devon (Bryton James) and Hilary (Mishael Morgan) finally straighten things out between the two of them and share a champagne toast. One thing leads to another and before long they’re kissing and undressing each other.

Billy (Jason Thompson) and Victoria (Amelia Heinle) meet at the Top of the Tower for a romantic dinner. Billy, however, has more than a delectable meal on his mind. He ends up getting down on one knee and proposing to his on-again/off-again ex. “Will you marry me, again,” he asks tenderly.

The Newman Offices provide the backdrop and desktop for Adam (Justin Hartley) and Chelsea’s (Melissa Claire Egan) Valentine’s Day fun, when Chelsea surprises her husband at work wearing red lace lingerie. “Not another word,” she coos to a dumbfounded Adam. Then, with a rose in her outstretched hand she tells Adam, “You may proceed.” And he does, carrying her onto to the desk.

Romance isn’t the biggest part of “Y&R’s” week. That scene happens in a hospital. Ashley (Eileen Davidson) is the patient, sitting up in her bed, while Dr. Neville (Michael Knight) stands at the foot of it. “I’m pregnant,” announces Ashley. Color Dr. Neville as stunned as the audience will likely be.

As viewers know, Ashley has only been with one man in the last few months, Ben (Sean Carrigan). And he just married her daughter, Abby (Melissa Ordway). It looks like things are about to get very complicated for the newlyweds.

Every wedding needs a planner, even if it is a couple’s fourth time saying, “I Do.” So the newly engaged Billy (Jason Thompson) and Victoria (Amelia Heinle) hire one to coordinate their next trip down the aisle on “The Young and the Restless,” and she’s being played by “The Price Is Right” model Gwendolyn Osborne-Smith.

“Feb 29th on @YRInsider I’m Evelyn-the Wedding planner! Acting with these cuties! Will Victoria and Billy Marry?” Osborne-Smith shared on Twitter, along with pictures of the bride and groom.

Osborne-Smith didn’t have to travel far for her new job, since “Y&R” and “The Price Is Right” shoot just across the hall from each other at CBS Television City in Hollywood. Nor was she nervous about the gig, since she has acted before. Osborne-Smith was a series regular in “Ocean Ave.” from 2002 to 2003 and appeared in “Basketball Wife” in 2013. Plus, she currently stars in the reality series “Meet the Smiths” with her husband, retired NBA player Kenny Smith, and their family. The show airs Fridays on TBS.

Look for Osborne-Smith to appear on “Y&R’s” Monday, February 29  episode as the very British Evelyn. She’ll share scenes with Heinle and Thompson.

The story was first reported by Soaps in Depth.

Monday, July 17 was World Emoji Day and CBS’ “The Young and the Restless” got in on the action.

In the 15-second video released on its social media platforms, daytime’s number one drama compiled a series of images showing its stars holding stuffed emojis, including your standard go-to’s: angry face, kissy face, hearts, tears and even a bag of s***.

In the video below it seems the various emojis provide a telling tale of where the storylines involving Victoria (Amelia Heinle), Billy (Jason Thompson), Phyllis (Gina Tognoni), Jack (Peter Bergman), Ashley (Eileen Davidson), Devon (Bryton James), Cane (Daniel Goddard), Lily (Christel Khalil) and others are heading, or in some cases, continuing. The video ended with the words “We Love You, Fans” (“love” was symbolized with a heart).

Happy World Emoji Day from #YR! pic.twitter.com/TjsA1RtbYi

In addition to celebrating the day itself, the timing of the “Y&R” video might have something to do with the upcoming release of “The Emoji Movie” by Sony Pictures, whose television division holds majority ownership of the soap opera. The movie is set for release in theaters on Friday, July 28.
