Y&R's Eileen Davidson on Engen's Exit: "When the Writing got better, That’s When Chris Became Unhappy!

Everybody has his or her own demons, choices and process. I can’t judge his decision because it was a personal one. I can say I love working with [recast] Michael Muhney. He’s a terrific actor.

The timing of thunder and lightening as Ashley realized it was Adam and not Sabrina was soaptastic. This storyline just keeps getting better and better. What did you think of today's creepy scene? More pictures after the jump. READ MORE

Is "The Beauty" starting to crack up? Certainly looks that when when some freaky things take place on The Young and the Restless.*SPOILER ALERT!* While Ashley's (Eileen Davidson) taking a stroll on the Newman ranch, she hears a child crying and she starts frantically searching for it.
