The Young and the Restless will air a week of classic episodes that tell the story of the Winters family. The episodes, at least one of which dates back nearly 30 years, involve iconic characters' first appearances, a rescue, and an adoption.

The Young and the Restless is set to devote an entire week of shows to the iconic Winters family. The special set of five episodes, which kicks off on May 18, will include the very first appearances by Daytime Emmy winners Kristoff St. John (Neil Winters) and Shemar Moore (Malcolm Winters). The episodes will also focus on Bryton James (Devon Hamilton), Victoria Rowell (Drucilla Winters), Tonya Lee Williams (Dr. Olivia Barber), and Christel Khalil (Lily Winters).

As Soap Central previously reported, The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful have been airing classic episodes due to the coronavirus pandemic. Because both shows have aired the last of their new, pre-COVID-19-filmed episodes, they have been airing throwback theme weeks filled with long-lost cherished characters, epic adventures, and classic moments.

Y&R's first theme week kicked off on Monday, April 27, and was dedicated to iconic Genoa City matriarch Katherine Chancellor (played by the late Jeanne Cooper). Its second theme week kicked off on Monday, May 4, and was dedicated to Victor and Nikki's love story. Last week, Y&R diverted slightly from focusing on characters and instead aired a week of episodes about the show's infamous grudges and rivalries.

Soap Central will be providing recaps for all of the classic episodes that aired before the Internet Age, and you can read them in our Daily Recaps Archives. That's also the place to check out recaps for any soap opera episode that's aired between 1996 and the present day.
