Veronica Redd's Return As Mamie On The Young And The Restless Has Us Celebrating
Matthew Cannon
When the news of Veronica Redd's return to "The Young and the Restless" broke, fans expressed their excitement all across social media, with one responding to the announcement on Instagram by stating, "She will get everyone back in line!!!" Another follower hilariously responded, "Yeaaaa ... Get the Abbott's back in line Miss Mamie ... at the Abbott House. Give everyone a spanking." Redd's reprisal of Mamie is just the breath of fresh air the sudser needs.
Over on Twitter, fans were also excited at the prospect of her getting into things with the Abbotts and more, setting characters straight, with one tweeting: "Mamie is what the Abbott household needs!" Another viewer hoped that Mamie would be able to talk Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) into shedding his hoodie-centric wardrobe and dressing more appropriately for his social standing.
In an interview with Soap Hub, posted back in March, Redd credited head writer and executive producer Josh Griffith for her return, explaining, "Had it not been for Josh and the light-hearted expertise of 'Y&R's' publicist Matt Kane, I wouldn't have had a clue how beloved Mamie was by fans of the show. It has been both flattering and stupefying to experience how many fans are still so loyal and devoted to her." She also graciously thanked everybody for their love and support.
