B&B: Ridge calls for a family meeting without Donna

1 Checking in with Y&R Emmy winner Jeanne Cooper In more than three decades of playing Genoa City's grande dame, Katherine Chancellor, on THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS, Jeanne Cooper has seen her soap's popularity rise and fall in cycles, but viewers seem to like it best when the show concentrates on being a "tapestry of daydreams," she says.

It's basically taking people away from their credit card debts and the question of who is going to be president and just giving them an hour when their mind can go somewhere else.

I could almost see the ears go up on the woman sitting next to me!" Now 79, Cooper isn't staying in sedate mode these days, recently finishing the movie comedy Donna on Demand" with son Corbin Bernsen.

I do a lot of those [covers]. It's just that people don't really recognize me all the time, because it might be a side shot or a back shot. It just happens to be a big author this time. It's pretty fun. It's fast. It takes an hour, and when you go in, you either work alone or you work with a guy. The guys are beautiful (laughs). Sometimes you get to wear all sorts of dresses.
