20 years ago in Norfolk: Paul finds out that his father is alive.

Two months already

Doug Davidson made his last appearance as Paul two months ago. This wonderfully talented Emmy winner is one of the sweetest men in the world and the only actor who has been on Y&R for 40 years. He really didn't deserve the way he was treated: his last scenes, without knowing there were his last scenes with the new actor hired to take his place. No words and no gratitude from TPTB for everything he's done on the show since May 1978, especially his amazing work in Cassandra's storyline which helped the show to become the #1 rated drama almost 30 years ago.

Viewers truly miss chief Williams and will always love Doug Davidson.

Let's get Doug Davidson back to Y&R

Doug Davidson is a kind caring man, an Emmy winner and a wonderfully talented actor. He's been loyal to Y&R for 40 years. Y&R's viewers can't accept the disrespectful cowardly way he was treated and the sudden disappearance of chief Williams. To get him back to the show, let's:

• email yrbb@tvc.cbs.com to ask for Doug Davidson's return.
• write to CBS: 7800 Beverly Boulevard - Los Angeles, CA. 90036
• sign the petition: link to the petition
• On Twitter, tweet as often as you can with the hashtag #bringbackDougDavidson and follow @KeepDoug and @DougFansYR.

And to counter TPTB's lack of gratitude towards Doug Davidson for his contribution to Y&R (how silent they've been DD annouced he was let go!), let's tell Doug Davidson how much we've enjoyed all he has done as Paul Williams, by writing a message that could be added to that page: http://yrwilliamsfamily.pagesperso-orange.fr/thanksdoug.html  (email me your message or write it as a comment below)

Thanks for your support

More airtime for Paul

Y&R's fans have to do something to make TPTB understand that Doug Davidson, who is an Emmy winner, a talented actor and the longest running cast member deserves better than playing a "service character".

How about:

• a tweet a day from each of us with the hashtag #MoreDougOnYR to @malyoung @AngelicaMcD @CBSDaytime @YandR_CBS

• sending emails to yrbb@tvc.cbs.com

• posting links of these videos on twitter, facebook... :

Let's get Paul back on screen

Here are all the episodes Paul has been on in 2018 so far:

Only 24 episodes! I would have loved Y&R to celebrate Doug Davidson's 40th anniversary by giving Paul airtime and his own story. A few flashbacks would have been great too. But the only thing Mr. Young was able to write for Doug was... a tweet sent the day after Doug Davidson's 40th anniversary:

To all of Doug Davidson's fans, let's unite in getting our beloved Paul back on screen. Let's share our ideas here.
