The Young and the Restless Renewed for Four More Seasons at CBS

The Young and the Restless fans can rest easy because CBS has renewed the daytime mainstay for four more years, the network announced Thursday, taking it through the 2023-2024 season. The soap opera will celebrate its 50th anniversary in the spring of 2023.

The Young and the Restless has been daytime’s most-watched and highest-rated drama for the last 31 years. “The last time any other show was on top, Ronald Reagan was president, and the Berlin Wall was still standing,” Kelly Kahl, President of CBS Entertainment, said in a statement. “It’s a remarkable achievement and a testament to the extraordinary cast, gifted writers, talented producers and supremely passionate fans, as well as our tremendous partnership with Sony Pictures Television.”
