I have always enjoyed the Young and the Restless. However recent cast changes have helped me to decide to find another daytime drama. Although I find it important to keep shows and storylines new and fresh which sometimes means adding new characters, it should not be at the cost of losing favorites. I miss the characters Paul Williams, Gloria Abbott, & Adam Newman (to name a few).... I think the powers that be at CBS need to rethink and rehire these great actors & actresses. I find the show has lost its spark
