Wednesday Morning Man: Thad Luckinbill!
November will mark the 10th anniversary of Thad Luckinbill’s first appearance on the CBS soap The Young and the Restless as J.T, Hellstrom.
Since I only recently began watching the show on a fairly regular basis to monitor its gay storylines, I had only been familiar with Thad from his memorable guest appearance on FX’s Nip/Tuck as Richard Chamberlain’s young lover. He ends up taking all of his clothes off (see photo below) and making the moves on Julian McMahon’s character who has a moment of gay panic and punches Luckinbill in the face.
His soap schedule has been flexible enough to leve him time for other guest spots including the CBS dramas Without a Trace, The Ghost Whisperer and CSI: NY.

Glad to see that Y&R is starting to give JT a storyline again. He has been neglected for a long period of time. As for the gay content, well I’m extremely disappointed. Expectations were high when Thom B. returned to the show and also, when it was shown that Rafe, the young attorney revealed himself as gay. Now, we see so little of Thom and Rafe. When Chris Engen quit the show allegedly for a scene involving a gay kiss, we expected a kiss to come between Adam and Rafe. It was never shown. I am wondering if it was all a publicity stunt to boost ratings. I don’t watch daily as I used to because the show has become so dark and at times, painful to watch.
