Ahead of his long-awaited return to "The Young and the Restless," Shemar Moore joined "The Talk," where he dished about what "Y&R" and Kristoff St. John meant to him. "I'm going back to where it all started, you know?" he said. "That was my first home here in the game of Hollywood. Without 'The Young and the Restless,' I wouldn't be sitting here, and I had eight amazing years on that show." Moore continued, "And my brother, may he rest in peace, Kristoff St. John, he is a large reason that I have found the success I've had because when I got on that show in the beginning, I was scared to death."

When Moore started, he was nervous and didn't think he could play the part of Malcolm Winters well. But St. John, "Basically just embraced me and said, 'Step by step we're gonna get you there.'" Moore explained how his co-star cheered him on, always pushing him forward. "I would go back to 'Young and the Restless' any time they asked me," he said joyfully, albeit, "Not full-time because I'm busy chasing bad guys on 'S.W.A.T.'" He praised "Y&R" for reaching 50 years on the air, saying, "That's a landmark. That's something special." 

With all the current drama on the show, we're looking forward to Malcolm setting everyone straight!
