DC's Top 5 Soap Opera Newcomers of 2012
No. 1: Hunter Haley King, The Young and the Restless
Is her name Hunter, or is it Haley? Child, who are you asking? Whatever she calls herself, Ms. King has provided a dose of much-need, angsty teen spirit on The Young and the Restless.
As Summer, the daughter of town prince Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) and slightly-sociopathic sex kitten Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford), King took over an integral role in the Genoa City mythology. The Hollywood Heights alum has impressed from day one, transforming Summer from a vapid, little nothing into a pretty little liar.
While we're not wowed by the teen bullying storyline she's currently featured in, King shines whenever Summer gets to dine at the grown-up table. Don't believe us? Just watch a scene of her opposite Chelsea (Melissa Claire Egan), as Summer wrestles with the guilt of having caused her estranged aunt to lose her baby, and try not to feel something.

Bring back Lindsay as Summer. And put her in short shorts.

Pls don't bring that other chick as Summer back! She was like nails on a chalkboard with her acting. This new actress I like her in the role and like the chemistry with Red (The Staff)...
Robert Adamson who plays Noah I just thought he was a little too old for the role. He can act seeing his work on Lincoln Heights on ABC Family.

Robert Adamson is fucking yummy. And he can really act. Fantastic recast. I agree with many here, RA should definitely be on top...of this list
Overall, great list. Agree with it, except the order.

Can Trey please stay on GH? Critics and fans love him and the character. His story line and romantic pairing were the problem not EV. He just needs a better story is all.

Keep Trey and send Krissy back to school. A Trey/Starr/Michael triangle would have been nice.
