Will you be watching 'The Young and the Restless' to see Michael E. Knight?

"The Young and the Restless" is the number one soap opera on network television.  To kick things up in Genoa City even further, Michael Logan reported this week on the TV Insider site that Daytime Emmy winning actor Michael E. Knight has joined the cast of the number one CBS daytime soap opera.

It has been a long time since fans have seen Michael E. Knight onscreen.  He appeared briefly in an episode of the number one CBS hit "NCIS" but has not been in a recurring role like that of "All My Children's" Tad Martin since the final television network episode four years ago this month.

Michael will be playing the role of mysterious Dr. Simon Neville and began shooting on September 9th.  Fans will be able to see Dr. Neville onscreen beginning October 15th.

Will you be tuning in to "The Young and the Restless" in mid-October to see Michael E. Knight?  Are you already a fan of the show?

Would Michael E. Knight make a good addition to General Hospital

Recently there has been a rumor circulating around the Internet that Michael E. Knight AKA All My Children's (AMC) Tad the Cad Martin is being considered for a role on General Hospital (GH).  Although there has been no word from GH or Disney/ABC the rumor continues to have its flames fanned.

The rumor has ignited Michael E. Knight fans and AMC fans to speculate whether he might be considered for an existing GH role, new role, or as Tad Martin of Pine Valley coming to Port Charles (the Tad Martin character is currently part of the Prospect Park bankruptcy case and would likely not be available for use).  While Soapers speculate whether the rumor is true or whether Michael E. Knight would be a good fit for GH he has not weighed in publicly whether he would be interested or not.  One thing is clear, his fans are and if they weren't already watching GH, they would be with him on board.

After how poorly Michael E. Knight was treated by Disney/ABC previously it is unknown whether he would be interested in working for the same company again.  His fans hope that one way or another he joins some show so they can enjoy his work once again.  Hey!  Maybe he's holding out for his own show! ;-)  Wouldn't that be awesome!!!
