I Would Totally Work Long Into The Night At Restless Style Just To Get With The Winner Of HIMBO's "Most Humpy" Award. Not. A. Problem.

If you think 2009 was a tough year, try living in Genoa City, or better yet, try watching people living in Genoa City.  HIMBO! is pleased to welcome you to the first of many award ceremonies honouring the best and worst of The Young & The Restless.  (Stick with me, Y&R staffers.  Together we’ll build the perfect soap.)

On with awarding the year gone by!

Late last spring I had the dream come true of a set visit to The Young & The Restless.  My pal Christine Fix from Soaps.com and I flew to L.A. for the Daytime Emmy weekend, and two days before the awards there we were, in Genoa City.

Melody Thomas Scott (Nikki) passed by us in the massive CBS studios, complaining to someone she was exhausted, Sharon Case (Sharon) looked over photos in the makeup room.  Eric Braeden (Victor) shuffled by, hunched over eating a croissant and drinking coffee.  I bumped into Amelia Heinle (Victoria) as she came through a door I was going in.  Michelle Stafford, fresh from back surgery, stood in Crocs and a bathrobe, chatting with some Bold & Beautiful actors from that show’s set, across the hall. And I’m sure neither Christine or I will soon forget the pow-wow on the Abbott couch with Peter Bergman (Jack) as he took a break from studying his lines to tell us all about his love for Toronto and the time he ran into Joni Mitchell at a restaurant in Yorkville.

But on to Jeanne Cooper.  Read the rest of this entry »
