Jill Farren Phelps is out as Executive Producer. There had been rumors of this happening for months. JFP had been EP since July, 2012. She took Y&R from its traditional story telling to more event based plots and plot driven stories.
In January, 2016, British producer Mal Young joined the staff of Y&R. He has been named the new EP. MY has won awards in Great Britain for his work on EastEnders and other dramas.

So happy JFP is gone! The new EP seems to be well qualified and I'm looking forward to what he will do to my show.

*fingers crossed* with JFP gone I'm hoping Pratt will be the next to get a pink slip.

Happy to hear it. I hope Pratt will be out as well and a new writer hired who doesn't love cheap plot gimmicks.

I'm glad JFP is gone but I feel sorry for the new guy. He's got a terrible mess to try to clean up.

Will be glad to see the last of Phelps. Just hope this new guy can give me a Y&R that I can recognize.

I've been very disappointed in the direction this show's been going so I'm very happy to see this change.
