Exclusive Interview: The Young and the Restless star Michael Corbett is coming back to TV 

The Young and the Restless viewers who didn't get to see David Kimble's reign of terror will get a glimpse of Nina's evil ex on Thanksgiving when Danny and Cricket's first wedding airs on Thanksgiving Day! That's when David was in the scheming stages of his master plan to steal Nina's fortune! Viewers can also spy Michael Corbett, David's portrayer, in Bel-Air, which drops on Monday, November 24, 2025, on Peacock!

The Young and the Restless, David Kimble is back!

Fans of the sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, which starred Will Smith, have seen the show become adapted to a drama, Bel-Air, which takes a dramatic and raw approach to the world of swagger, style, and aspiration. The series stars Jabari Banks as Will.

Corbett will appear in Season 4 as a college recruiter from prestigious Princeton University. "I had such a great experience working with some amazingly talented cast members, and a great director and production team," Corbett tells Soap Central.

Return to Paradise

Corbett's appearance on Bel-Air coincides with the actor's return to The Young and the Restless. While Danny (Michael Damian) and Cricket's (Lauralee Bell) 1990 wedding episode, set to re-air on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, 27, went off without a hitch, there was the looming presence of David! Jill's (Jess Walton) former secretary had charmed Nina and was courting her as she struggled to move forward following the death ("death," actually) of Phillip III (Thom Bierdz), the year before.

"I vividly remember that 1990 Danny and Cricket wedding day shoot in Hawaii," Corbett shares exclusively with Soap Central. "David Kimble had such a great storyline at the time [when] he tried to frame Danny for drug possession. I had so much fun playing [David]. He was really in the thick of all his deviousness then.

"In fact," Corbett chuckles, "when it was put on social media that Nina (Tricia Cast) was coming back to Genoa City for Danny and Cricket's [current] wedding, I was going to post, 'Well, hello, Nina, now that you are back in Genoa City - David Kimble is watching you!' LOL!"

Oh, sure, David was presumed dead courtesy of his accidentally trash-compacting himself to death as he tried to escape authorities. But as viewers have recently seen with Matt Clark (Roger Howarth), death isn't always final on Y&R!
