  4. Yes, I'm very happy that Y&R is bringing Melissa Claire Egan on. I love her acting and I think she will be a great addition to the show. I'm really pleased and excited to have some of the former AMC actors join the cast of the Y&R. Good for you Melissa and Debbie. Now I would love to see them bring on Michael E. Knight and Vincent Issario and any other AMC actors.......go Y&R. You are making a smart move. Your viewer ratings will definitely go up making this kind of smart move!!
