Young and the Restless: Fans Rooted for Doug Davidson and He Returns Favor
Back in the admittedly mediocre days when Mal Young was running Y&R, he cut Paul Williams from the character canvas, forcing Doug Davidson out of the CBS soap. Doug’s fans rallied to the cause and raised their voices. Of course, that showrunner didn’t care what fans wanted. That’s why he cut Doug Davidson and other beloved actors and characters. It’s also why ratings hit the skids and the British writer-director was finally fired himself which thrilled most viewers.
Then, with the new writing-producing team in charge, Doug Davidson was one of the first that they brought back to restore the show to its glory days. When Young and the Restless revealed that Paul Williams was coming back to Genoa City, fans rejoiced. And of course, Doug Davidson was quick to thank his fans via social media. he acknowledged the role they had in bringing him back and how much he appreciated their efforts.
Hi everyone! I’ve had some mighty upsetting diagnoses from some followers. Can we all say a prayer for those in sickness and in pain. May God grant them peace and health in the days to come. I believe in the power of prayer, especially when we care for one another. May God bless
