As previously reported, CBS will air “The Young and the Restless: Tribute to Jeanne Cooper,” in place of an original episode of “Y&R,” on Tuesday, May 28. In a newly released clip, Daniel Goddard (Cane Ashby) says, “My favorite thing that Jeanne would do is on cue, cuss at Jess Walton [Jill Foster Abbott],” He added, “…I would get Jeanne to say things to Jess that would make a truck driver just freak out.”

“Every single time, without a doubt, Jess would react, and Jeanne would just laugh and laugh and laugh — and that’s one of the things about Jeanne that I loved the most.”

Allison Janney has acted in a slew of projects since leaving the role of “Guiding Light’s” Ginger in 1995, including “The West Wing,” “Mr. Sunshine,” and “American Beauty,” and she just filmed a new spot as a guest on “Bitter Party of 5,” which “The Young and the Restless’” Michelle Stafford (Phyllis Summers) wants you to see!

“Tweeps! [Please] watch my friends hilarious show!” writes the actress of the web comedy that was created by Jason Antoon (“Minority Report”), Mary Birdsong (“The Descendants”), Greg Cromer, Romy Resemont (“Glee“) and Tricia O’Kelley — all actors who were slated to star alongside “Roseanne’s” Roseanne Barr and John Goodman in NBC’s pilot “Downwardly Mobile,” which was ultimately not picked up by the network.
