CBS The Young and the Restless spoilers reveal that fans of Doug Davidson, who plays Paul Williams on the CBS sudser, will be happy to hear that the fan fave will be filming for the first time this Thursday following the show’s return to production.
He is currently on the recurring status and he debuted way back in 1978. We last saw Davidson on the show back in February. With that in mind, we think that a refresher on this exciting character is in order!\
The Young And The Restless Spoilers – Who Is Paul Williams On The CBS Sudser?
Paul Williams is one of the longest-running characters on the show, having debuted in 1978. Davidson is the longest-serving actor on the show, even longer than iconic Eric Braeden (Victor Newman). Along the way, he won a daytime Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in 2013.
Early on Paul was involved with Nikki Reed Newman (Melody Thomas Scott). Paul and Nikki were in the New World Commune as well.
Later Paul was involved with Lauren Fenmore (Tracey Bregman) but it is Christine Blair (Lauralee Bell) who is his true and lasting love. These two have been through heck and back, including a turbulent past with Phyllis Newman (Michelle Stafford) who once tried to kill them by crashing her car into them.
Y&R Spoilers – Paul Williams Has A Complicated History
At one point Paul had an affair with a client, Isabella Braña, played by Eva Longoria. Christine divorced him and Paul and Isabella had a child who turned out to be a bad seed like his mom. Sadly, Paul shot and killed their son in order to keep him from hurting someone else.
Along the way, Paul had to deal with his unstable sister Patty Williams (Stacy Haiduk) who terrorized the town as well. As you can see, Paul is the stable one in his family!
The Young And The Restless Spoilers – What Will Paul Williams do Next?
Eventually, Paul became the chief of police and remarried Christine. Christine was the D.A. for a while, but she has relinquished that job. They are happy together, for now, and Paul is busy with his job at the GCPD. Although it looked like Rey Rosales (Jordi Vilasuso) had usurped him at one point, Paul’s job now seems safe.
What will Paul Williams do next in Genoa City? Rumor has it a hot storyline is on its way for Paul! Be sure to tune in and find out since there is never a dull moment with this long time character!

I wish they would have him on more. Four pages of script doesn't even count as recurring!
no bring in somebody new for lola. Not Noah.
He needs a healthy story. I've watched yr from beginning. Some of stories are ridicules.
Love him – give him a good story line !
Love him. He has been on forever and they could use him in a lot of ways.
I am happy Doug Davidson will be returning ..I've watched him since he was a young teen and enjoy watching him work. Not crazy about Christine but she's better than Phyllis and what the writers are doing to Victoria. I am starting to fast forward through Phyllis and Nick stuff they are sickening, the writers have turned Victoria into a real tyrant and what she is doing to Adam is wrong. She has a young son who she supposedly loves what if something happened and he killed someone to protect let's say his sister or even his mom, would she not do whatever she could to keep him safe? She would sure appreciate Victor making sure no harm came to him. I firmly believe unlike Nikki who murdered two people in her life and was well aware she did it and got away with it, I firmly believe that what happened to Adam at 11 shaped the adult he became. He had NO counselling and it was buried so deep he didn't know it even happened. Hope and Victor should have made sure he got the help he needed and who knows he might have turned out to be a better guy. Nikki Victoria and Nick were never very welcoming to him when he was introduced as their half brother, the spoiled Newman's never accepted him so when he started acting out against them he felt justified !
I have a feeling at some point this Adam stuff is going to be coming out and Paul will have to get involved and get to the bottom of it and the cover up !
Welcome back Paul. We hope you stay a while this time.
