Tammin Sursok as Colleen Carlton

Colleen Carlton is the fiesty daughter of the late Brad Carlton and Traci Abbott Connolly. Colleen came to town in 2001 after being expelled from school for marijuana use. Around this time, Colleen met her first love...J.T. Hellstrom. The two shared a long and passionate relationship, despite everyone else's disapproval. Their love ended when Colleen took an interest in her college professor, Adrian Korbel. Colleen and J.T. broke up and she began a relationship with Adrian, again going against her parents' better judgement. Once Korbel tried to get his book published that would damage the reputation of her father, Colleen and Adrian broke up, and Brad put an end to Korbel's book. Recently, Colleen lost her father in a terrible accident. Brad died while saving Noah Newman's life. With the coaching of her uncle Jack Abbott, Colleen decided to step in and take her father's seat on the Newman Board of Directors...thus angering the great Victor Newman.

Here are the names of previous Colleen's. # 1 was Lyndsy Fonseca on the show 2001,then 2004-2005.
Colleen # 2 was played by Adrianne Leon 2006-07. The new Colleen (Tammin Sursoc)is growing on me fast. They don't show her with Korbel much, I feel her character will grow into a bigger storyline later on.

I don't know if anyone else experiences a sense of surprise followed by disappointment will an actor who you are used to seeing for years gets replaced...hate it.

The first colleen was okay and got used to seeing her; the second one grew on me finally and now we are on to number 3. I think number 2 and the professor had better chemistry. Although she is new to the role and assumably will connect better with the other actors once she gets more comfortable. Great example: I loved the old "Victoria", watched her grow for years, didn't like the latest one initially, but she is really good in the role. I saw the first "Victoria" recently on B&B and thought if the actress is back on the payroll/set, why not give her back her old role, but it would be tough b/c the latest Victoria is good.

I don't think that Colleen should never leave The Y&R!!!!!!!! She is #1. I like the new Colleen better. Because the new Colleen is more sensitive, outgoing, better looking then Colleen # 1&2 and she is alot nicer.
