LOS ANGELES, April 4 (UPI) -- Repeat episodes of the U.S. soap opera "The Young and the Restless" will be seen on TVGN instead of SOAPnet, starting this summer, TVGN announced.

TVGN said it will become the exclusive basic cable home for the popular daytime drama, as part of a deal with the show's producers Sony Pictures Television. "Y&R" repeats previously aired on the basic cable network SOAPnet.

The 40-year-old CBS series "revolves around the rivalries, romances, hopes and fears of the residents of the fictional Midwestern metropolis, Genoa City," a synopsis said.
