The Young and the Restless’ Joshua Morrow (Nick) rarely posts on social media so when he does, it’s for a good reason. This past week, some exciting news was announced — that the CBS soap had been renewed for another four years — which prompted the actor to send a very special message to fans.

“[The] show was picked up for four more years,” Morrow stated. “It’s all because of you fans.” He then reminded everyone how much the soap and its stars “are and will always be eternally grateful for your incredible support,” then closed out the message by expressing, “We love you.”

This isn’t the first time the actor has acknowledged fans… “It’s easy to say that we appreciate the fans,” Morrow told Soaps.com in a past interview. “But that doesn’t even begin to express how important they are.” He went on to added, “And I never take them for granted. I don’t think any of us do.”

Soap fans are some of the most loyal ones out there. Why? Well, the actor stated one of the most obvious reasons… “There are viewers who’ve been inviting us into their homes every day for longer than I’ve been on the show. That’s an incredible gift that they’re giving us.” And when it comes to giving back to the fans, he explained, “I like to think it’s a two-way street.”

Morrow also admitted, “I’m not really all that active on social media and all that, there are other people on our show who are way better at it, but whenever I have the opportunity, I try to make sure that people know just how grateful I, and really all of us, really am.”

We are grateful as well… for the fans, the shows they support and the soap stars who bring the characters we love — and love to hate — to life and into our homes each weekday!
