The Young and the Restless has a new co-executive producer… who’s actually not new at all. Sally McDonald has been with the soap since

1989, when she was hired as a production supervisor. Seven years later, she also joined the show’s directing team, helping to steer Young & Restless to eight Emmy victories in that category.

 

 

McDonald will work alongside the daytime drama’s current co-executive producer Josh Griffith, Soap Opera Digest said in breaking the news. He will continue in that capacity as well as headwriter.

Word of McDonald’s promotion comes at a key moment for The Young and the Restless. This fall, the show is undergoing a sea change, welcoming back a legacy character (with Days of Our Lives’ Lucas Adams stepping in as Noah Newman) and introducing Emmy winners Tamara Braun (ex-Ava, Days of Our Lives) and Roger Howarth (ex-Austin, General Hospital) in roles that are shrouded in mystery.

That cast shakeup comes on the heels of Cane Ashby’s recasting, with the younger, significantly less Australian Billy Flynn (ex-Chad, Young & Restless) replacing Daniel Goddard (who’s now Henry on General Hospital). The erstwhile Aristotle Dumas has a master plan, he loves to say. But only time will tell whether it amounts to more than the show’s last scheming tycoon Tucker McCall’s did.
