If you haven’t been locked into The Young and the Restless lately, you’re doing yourself a grave disservice. The daytime soap is operating on all cylinders and is delivering some great soapy television. From Ashley (Eileen Davidson) continuing to bounce between personalities as she suffers from dissociative identity disorder to Devon (Bryton James) and Billy (Jason Thompson) gearing up for war at Chancellor-Winters, things are heating up in Genoa City.
Of course, I can’t talk about dynamic storylines and not mention Jordan’s (Colleen Zenk) reign of terror and Nikki’s (Melody Thomas Scott) subsequent relapse in sobriety. Jordan is the big bad wolf I’ve been hoping would show up in town, and Nikki’s battle with alcoholism is so complex and fascinating, that I couldn’t turn away from watching.
