CBS is rolling out the red carpet for The Young and the Restless. The network will air a primetime special to fete the soap's 50th anniversary.

CBS will air a special Entertainment Tonight-branded special later this month to celebrate the 50th anniversary of The Young and the Restless.

The special will be hosted by Entertainment Tonight's Nischelle Turner. It will feature interviews with The Young and the Restless cast members from the past 50 years as well as never-before-seen moments from the Entertainment Tonight vault. Plus, ET will take viewers on a behind-the-scenes studio tour.

The special will also do a deep dive into the legacy of Y&R storylines over the years, including the epic romances, biggest feuds and rivalries, iconic weddings, famous alumni, and groundbreaking moments in pop culture.

There will also be special remembrances to beloved cast members Jeanne Cooper (Katherine Chancellor) and Kristoff St. John (Neil Winters).

Y&R kicks off its on-screen celebration on March 22. The top-rated soap is bringing back a handful of fan favorites to help mark the milestone. The show's official broadcast anniversary is March 26, which falls on a Sunday this year.

The special will air Monday, March 27, from 8:00 to 9:00pm on CBS and Paramount+. If you miss the initial broadcast, it will be available for on-demand viewing on Paramount+.
