The Young and the Restless: Angry Doug Davidson (Paul) Boycotts Series’ 50th Anniversary

As the soap opera Les Feux de l’amour prepares to celebrate its fiftieth season in the United States, CBS, which broadcasts the soap across the Atlantic, has already thrown a big party for the special occasion on Friday, March 17. 2023 in Los Angeles.

Doug Davidson, the big absentee

In the credits of the series, the actors were now clearly invited. But that’s not all, because former actors who were once iconic faces of American fiction were also invited.

Red carpet photos are full of happy faces… but Genoa City adventurers have noticed a notable absence: Doug Davidson, who has been skating as Paul Williams since 1978. He did not take a step.

On Twitter, some followers of Fires of Love (where the characters no longer share sex scenes) took issue with the cricketer’s husband’s (Lorale Bell) translator. His fans directly asked him why he wasn’t there… and the bitter reply from the main party didn’t stop him!

Paul’s interpreter gathered a lot

An angry Doug Davidson explained that he chose not to attend the big 50th anniversary party for The Young and the Restless (which recently introduced its first gay couple) because of how the production has been handling it in recent times. years.

Indeed, Paul’s character has often appeared and disappeared without explanation in the last few seasons … In 2018, Doug Davidson already revealed that he was fired by the producer, but he was reinstated in the cast after protests from fans and Eric Braden (Victor).

Unfortunately, this unfortunate incident doesn’t seem to be an isolated incident as the young and tireless veteran star has been asked several times and then stood by the night! Unfortunately, Doug Davidson believes this course of action is disrespectful, especially after nearly 45 years of good and faithful service.

“Fire of love” without Paul?

Still on Twitter, Doug Davidson blames Sony Pictures Television, noting that Eric Braden was trying to prove his case again… Despite this, Paul remains missing from the storylines, though his name is occasionally mentioned by Cricket or even Heather (Vale Bloom). His daughter returned to Genoa.

In the past, Doug Davidson ended up saying he didn’t want to return to “The Young and the Restless” anymore… but will this big media hype encourage behind-the-scenes teams to want him back? If a miracle happens, will Doug Davidson change his mind about coming back again? Nothing is less certain.
