The Young and the Restless debuted on CBS daytime television in 1973. You probably know the theme song. One year later, Jeanne Cooper joined the melodrama at age 46, after a long career in the golden age of TV, appearing in many shows.
In 1984, she was ten years older and felt she needed a facelift. Then her character did the same.
And it was shown.
